It was a doll about thirty centimeters tall and wearing a white kimono.
Different from the two-dimensional images in Japan, the doll is completely realistic, with long black silky hair, lifelike facial features, and perfect body proportions, which instantly reminded me of something.
Isn't this him? When I first met Mr. Shen, didn't he want to accept me as his apprentice in order to control the Youying doll that Wu Hao gave him?
I looked at the doll carefully. The texture of its skin and blood vessels were clearly depicted.
Even when I stared at it, a faint black smoke filled its eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
If it were in the past, I would definitely think it was just my illusion.
But things are different now. Even without observing the trace of black mist, I can feel that the gloomy energy in this room is as strong as a morgue. This is absolutely impossible in a residential building.
"You look like you're addicted."
Shen Shi called me from behind: "How's it going? Is Chie's room quite clean?"
At this time, I took a quick look around the room.
This is a large suite, with a bathroom and bathroom of almost thirty square meters. However, there is very little furniture. Apart from the bed, there is only a dressing table, two bedside tables, a lamp, and a small table placed on the edge of the balcony. Already.
"Well, it's quite clean. It's as if no one lives in her room."
After staring at the doll on the window sill for a few more times, I exited the room and pretended to shiver again: "But this room is a bit cold."
"It's quite cold. There's nothing I can do about it. The room is too big and the heating can't keep up."
Shen Shi walked in and turned on a switch on the wall: "But there is central air conditioning in the room."
"It has nothing to do with the central air conditioning. This house is so cold."
I walked two more times into the house: "It's that eerie coldness, do you understand what I mean?"
"not understand."
"It's Yin Qi, not cool Qi, it's Yin Qi, do you understand?"
Shen Shi was amused by what I said. She covered her mouth and laughed: "How come the Yin energy is coming out? Don't make trouble. Besides, we have four women living in this house. It's normal for the Yin energy to be strong."
"What's the point? It's so sinister, okay?"
I shook my head and walked into the room: "There must be something wrong with the feng shui of this room. Otherwise, the yin energy cannot be so strong. I need to take a closer look."
"Hey, why are you so babbling?"
Shen Shi might have thought I was joking, she was laughing while talking, but she didn't stop me: "Okay, okay, okay, Master Gu, take a good look. If there is really a female ghost in this house, you can help us catch it or something." "
I thought to myself, is this a problem with female ghosts? Just that Youying doll, if it wants to, can kill everyone in the entire building overnight.
But I couldn't tell Shen Shi this, so I could only continue: "Don't make trouble, I'm really not joking with you. I have fairy in me. I can really tell if there is something wrong with this room."
For a Northeastern person, regardless of whether you say you are a monk or a Taoist priest, or whether you know magic or other such things, people will just curse you in your heart and laugh.
But if you say you have a fairy in you, no matter how many Northeasterners you say, you will believe it.
So after hearing what I said, Shen Shi's attitude immediately began to change: "Don't scare me, Gu Yan, you mean, there are dirty things in the house we rent?"
"It's hard to say."
I pretended to shake my head: "So, if you think carefully about it, did you hear anything unusual or have any strange dreams when you went to bed at night?"
"No... right."
Shen Shi began to feel unsure, frowning and recalling for a long time: "If I have to say yes, I occasionally heard women's laughter several times when I was sleeping at night. The laughter was very high-pitched and thin. I always thought it was them. The three of you were watching a comedy, so you didn’t take it seriously.”
"Any more?"
"Also, I can occasionally hear footsteps in the middle of the night. The footsteps are very light. Sometimes they are accompanied by the sound of bells. Every time they ring for a while and then disappear."
As she spoke, Shen Shi became a little frightened by her own words.
She subconsciously grabbed my sleeve and said, "Gu Yan, is this something weird?"
I nodded: "Forget it, and I can guarantee that this noise was definitely not made by one of them."
Shen Shi was even more frightened now. She was trembling when she spoke: "Then what's going on?"
"What's going on? You'll know if I show you something."
Taking advantage of this opportunity, I pointed to the Youying doll on the window sill: "Look carefully and see what is hanging around its neck?"
"Isn't that just a bell? What's so good about it..."
Shen Shi's answer was smooth, but after she realized what she was saying, she couldn't continue.
What's even more weird is that when Shen Shi looked at the doll, the doll's shape was obviously different from before.
Her head changed direction at some point, and she was staring straight at me and Shen Shi, with a strange and sinister smile hanging on the corner of her mouth, and black mist spreading in her eyes like clouds.
It's not a surprise to me. Since I called in, I knew that this baby could hear everything I said to Shen Shi.
And theoretically speaking, Sato Chie can also know our conversation through the doll, but since I walked into this room for the second time, I have cut off all channels for transmitting information from the entire room to the outside world.
But Shen Shi didn't know this.
It felt like she was a little frightened at that time, and suddenly she shouted "Ah", and she leaned over to hug me: "Gu Yan, look at me with that thing!!!"
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, there is nothing to be afraid of with a doll."
I patted Shen Shi on the back to comfort her, then stared into the doll's eyes and conveyed a message: "You should know who I am, and I also know what you are. This set of tricks can't scare me. Stop acting here."
The doll's smile became even weirder.
The next second, a gentle, but erratic, and somewhat strange female voice sounded in my mind. I was dumbfounded at that time.
Because this doll speaks Japanese, but except for a few sentences in the short movie, I can’t understand anything else in Japanese!
Anyway, she chattered a lot in my head, which made me uncomfortable to listen to: "Can you speak Chinese? Are you chatting here with me and imitating bird calls?"
"あなたはだまされた, hehe..."
Another string of Japanese words popped out, followed by a burst of sinister laughter.
After a few seconds, the black mist in the doll's eyes suddenly dissipated, and along with it, his head hung slightly, returning to the lifeless look it had at the beginning.
