I raised my fist and wanted to hit him, but Lao Hu stopped me.
Apparently the actor disappeared and the power given him was gone. Zhang Tieshan returned to normal and became an ordinary person.
Seeing so many people surrounding him, he instinctively huddled up and shouted: "Don't bully me, don't bully me, it's none of my business."
The old lady reached out and grabbed his arm: "Old Zhangtou, have you forgotten all the evil you did back then? If you hadn't started to bully Xiaoyan, she wouldn't have been driven crazy and killed so many people.
, we won’t be trapped here and can’t leave, it’s all you.”
Zhang Tieshan's eyes widened suddenly, as if he suddenly remembered something?
"It was me. It was me who bullied Xiaoyan first. It was me. I am not a human being. I deserve to die."
"You deserve to die. If we had known this, we would not have intervened. We should have let a few young people torture you to death. But why didn't Xiaoyan kill you back then?"
Zhang Tieshan had been pretending for many years, deceiving himself and others for many years, and finally collapsed completely at this moment.
He held his head and cried loudly.
"Yes, why didn't Xiaoyan kill me back then? Why didn't you kill me? I am a sinner, but I don't have the courage to commit suicide. I can only live in sin like a dog."
Suddenly, his crying stopped and he stood up suddenly.
Everyone stepped back, fearing that this guy would go on a killing spree again.
But the next second, Zhang Tieshan suddenly smiled sadly, turned around and ran towards Xiaoyan's room.
"Zhang, what are you doing?" I shouted and chased after him.
As a result, Zhang Tieshan was seen rushing to the window in one breath, hitting him so hard that his whole body rolled down along with the broken glass.
I was stunned.
He jumped off the building.
I heard a thud coming from downstairs, so I quickly ran over and looked down through the window.
Zhang Tieshan lay crookedly on the ground, blood flowing from the side of his head.
He died, just like Xiaoyan back then.
Lao Hu and I were speechless for a long time.
In fact, he should have died long ago. Xiaoyan did not kill him in the first place because she wanted to torture him in this way, because for a person who has committed a crime, living is more painful than death.
Someone called the police, and the patrol arrived quickly.
After all, three people died, Zhang Tieshan killed two, and himself.
Lao Hu and I were involved, and we thought we would be taken back to make notes.
Unexpectedly, Lao Hu, an old guy with a lot of brushes, said something to one of the leading patrol officers. The patrol officer did not take us to the station, but asked a few questions as usual.
What follows is a survey of the site, disposal of the body, and routine investigation.
However, several people in the apartment were taken away.
Soon, the patrols withdrew.
It was obvious that there was nothing to investigate. So many people saw it. Zhang Tieshan suddenly went crazy and killed two people, and then committed suicide himself.
To the patrolmen, this incident was very strange, because the girl named Xiaoyan also went crazy back then, killed many people and then committed suicide. Now the tragedy has happened again in the apartment building. It is really a coincidence.
Lao Hu and I were both a little downcast.
If it hadn't been for the actor tattoo I gave Zhang Tieshan, I wouldn't have actually summoned the actor's ghost and given him evil power, so much so that he killed two people.
Of course, it's impossible for the patrol officers to believe this. Even if they saw the actor tattoo on Zhang Tieshan's back, they wouldn't know what it was. At most, they would treat it as an ordinary tattoo.
But Lao Hu and I know clearly in our hearts that we are responsible for this matter.
I blame myself a lot.
Lao Hu patted me on the shoulder: "We were deceived by that Zhang, so you don't have to blame yourself. Speaking of which, those who bullied Xiaoyan were punished, and Zhang Tieshan died, but those who didn't bully Xiaoyan
How can those who sit idly by and watch without guilt?"
Yes, even if the white-haired old lady did not try her best to stop it, but watched those people bullying Xiaoyan and chose to remain silent, this is also a kind of evil.
Even if one person had stepped forward to stop it, if one person had bravely stood up and informed the police, the tragedy would not have happened.
It's just a pity that there is no if.
"Let's go." I said. This apartment made me feel suffocated and I didn't want to stay for a minute longer.
But Lao Hu sighed: "We can't leave now, we have to perform a religious ceremony to liberate all the resentful spirits in this building, especially Xiaoyan's."
Yes, only by sending away the evil spirit can the curse be lifted and the ghost apartment completely return to normal, otherwise the tragedy will happen again.
Lao Hu went back to get the ritual tools, and moved a table to the corridor on the sixth floor, placed the ritual objects, hung up the soul-transmitting flags, and lit incense candles and talismans.
I said, Lao Hu, aren’t you good at this?
Lao Hu said: "I'm not good at it, but I can do it. Fortunately, Xiao Yan'er's resentment has almost disappeared, so it shouldn't be difficult to do."
I couldn't help, and I still felt depressed, so I walked aside to smoke.
Not long after, Lao Hu finished the ritual and was so tired that he almost collapsed.
"Okay, I sent them all away, it went smoothly. After all, Xiaoyan's revenge has been avenged, and it's time to reincarnate."
The people in the apartment heard that it would no longer be haunted and they could move out. They were all very grateful to Lao Hu and me.
I packed up my religious things and prepared to leave with Lao Hu.
But he suddenly said: "I always feel like something is wrong. We still have a problem we haven't figured out, right?"
"How did Xiaoyan invite that statue of the actor back then?"
Yes, this is indeed a big question. Could it be that the actor approached Xiaoyan himself and said that he was willing to give her evil power to help her avenge her? And also gave her his own statue?
Obviously unlikely.
"Let's go and have a look in Xiaoyan's room. We might find some clues."
So Lao Hu and I went to Xiaoyan's room again and searched carefully.
Needless to say, I actually made a discovery.
I found a palm-sized notebook on the bedside table in Xiaoyan's bedroom, and there was a bell next to it.
I opened the diary, hoping to find some clues about the actor.
But I was quickly disappointed.
The diary records how Xiaoyan was bullied by her neighbors, word for word, every word is filled with tears.
In the entire diary, Xiaoyan did not record anything about the actor statue, such as how the actor statue appeared and why he helped her get revenge?
Only on the last two pages of the diary, Xiaoyan wrote a few words: "Omnipotent god, give me power, destroy them, kill..."
I seemed to see the scene of Xiaoyan worshiping the evil actor god, and the scene of her going crazy and killing those people.
After closing the diary, I couldn't calm down for a long time.
