Chapter 005: The Vengeful Spirit in Red (04)

He spoke very fluently and casually, as if he had known it all along, but was simply too lazy to state it clearly

Left

The floor-to-ceiling windows are transparent, and because it is the suburbs, the streetlights on the road are sparse. Outside the window is dark and hazy, but fortunately, the brightness of the incandescent lights on the fifth floor provides a sense of safety

Zhou Wen looked confused and asked, "What does it taste like?"

He raised his hand symbolically to take a look, and his pupils suddenly constricted

Highly toxic? Poisonous insect bites? The poisonous insect that nurtures the infant head gu? Is it possible that the gu insect of the infant head gu is raised on the corpse of a male infant?

Do you think their working hours coincide perfectly with the time when ghosts come out to hunt for food

Xie Chi took out the ultraviolet lamp tube he had purchased from the equipment store and carefully shone it inch by inch against the pristine white wall.

Baby boy: "Brother, I really like you. Please play games with me. If you win tonight, I won't kill you and that annoying person."

Xie Chi is very understanding: "My boyfriend is the best!"

The baby boy turned to face the mirror behind the sofa

In the deep moonlight, Xie Xinglan walked expressionlessly, exuding an elegant leisure, with a demeanor that was cold, quiet, and languid, making him resemble a handsome and noble vampire in the night

It is indeed confirmed that there is a problem with the elevator

What is this again? Could someone please explain?

Ah, the fluorescent powder scattered on the ground has taken effect, and there are footprints on the ground! There are approaching footprints!

The male infant's skull was torn apart at the base, its whereabouts unknown, and a gaping wound on the neck was oozing blood, dark and glistening.

At this moment, the seventh floor

Young man, come out quickly; what if the elevator doors lock?

The small emotional stir of sentiment that Yan Jing felt was instantly suppressed.

How many people must have died here!

Is this going shopping with your girlfriend?

... ...

They couldn't help but look behind Xie Xinglan: "Oh, no girlfriend, just him..."

Even the atmosphere dares not make a sound.

"Brother, are you not afraid of me?" The voice of the baby boy carried a sense of naive confusion, sharp yet contradictory in its innocence

Xie Chi's gaze lingered for a moment

Xie Chi remained silent and took out a pair of white gloves from the bag to put them on

The plot imagined by the audience did not occur, and Xie Chi returned safely.

With a loud crash, the power on the fifth floor unexpectedly tripped, and the surroundings became pitch black.

This is incredible technology, impressive!

Why do I feel that he is setting up a net to catch ghosts? This must be an illusion

Xie Chi was a bit hot from the busyness, so he went to the water dispenser to pour himself some water to drink, and then he went to the pile of Chinese translation materials he had bought during the day.

Xie Xinglan helplessly said: "You..."

Yan Jing still had something to say, and Xie Chi let out a soft "Oh": "That's strange, where are the two boiled eggs I left on the table?"

The wall clock shows that two hours have already passed

... ...

... ...

... ...

The plot progress has been updated, and the actors have begun their first day of work

Xie Chi gave him an OK sign, he knows how to play snooker

Yan Jingxin anxiously waited outside. About ten minutes later, Xie Chi arrived, speaking in a relaxed tone: "Nothing happened, let's go, we are going to the fifth floor"

Xie Chi tested the entire fifth floor with a UV lamp, finding nothing. His gaze glanced at the elevator, and he paused slightly.

That is why your face is so pale, you cough up blood, and you look as if you are on the brink of death. The ability to see ghosts must come at the cost of being unable to see people, right? The Eye of Yin and Yang? Each use drains your life force?

Ah, no wonder that female boss set up her office on the first floor; she has something to hide! She knows that someone died in the elevator, which is why she absolutely refuses to take it!

Sudden silence, the two heard the sound of boiled eggs rolling across the ground, rolling over with a gurgling sound, then rolling back again, as if something was playing with those two eggs with great delight

I do enjoy taking advantage of others, but I prefer to rely on myself more.

Yan Jing was slurping his noodles when he suddenly said: "Brother Xie, it would be a bit ungrateful of me to keep hiding things from you like this."

The door of the stairwell has not been opened for a long time, and the hinges are somewhat rusted. When the draft blows through, it creaks, resembling a ghostly wail

He does not know what Xie Chi went to buy, and it has taken such a long time

Wow! It seems he has watched quite a few films! Impressive!

The audience outside the horror film instantly exploded

Yan Jing: "I can be your eyes, allowing you to see ghosts"

Revealed in its true form, the little ghost no longer concealed its figure, clearly appearing before Xie Chi.

What kind of psychological quality does this newcomer have? The person on the eleventh floor is almost scared to death, yet he is here searching the wall for peeling paint

Brother, you haven't watched enough horror movies, have you? Blood appears brownish under ultraviolet light. He wants to use this to check if anyone has died in this building, after all, even if the blood is cleaned up, there will still be some residue. It is a liquid and will seep through.

What was this person doing before they started filming? How come they seem to know a little about everything?

This is so funny, I can't stop laughing

What other cutting-edge technology does he have? My heart can hardly take it

Good. Yan Jing is very obedient

Xie Chi and Yan Jing: "... ..."

The more there are of the cursed, the fewer heads the male infants have, could it be...

The little devil's pure intention is definitely not to kill; if it were, he wouldn't be playing with his boiled eggs. The little devil has a playful side, and he might be able to use this to his advantage

"Brother Xie, the headless infant! It's right in front of you! Run!" In the midst of darkness, Yan Jing opened his yin-yang eyes and saw that thing, letting out a loud shout.

The head of the male infant

"Good." Xie Chi said calmly, "What shall we play?"

He plugged in the electricity and started boiling water

He said to Yan Jingdao: "I will go down to take a look, you wait for me here"

Xie Chi suddenly smiled, secretly thinking that he had an older brother to protect him

Bixie arrived at the lock first, and by the time Xie Chi and Yan Jing got there, the lock had already been opened

... ... Hahahahahahahahahaha, he took out the multifunctional rice cooker from the dormitory.

Xie Chi took out a lighter and struck it, his gentle features appearing somewhat enchanting under the orange-yellow flame

Xie Xinglan saw Yan Jing from a distance and thought to herself: "Xiao Chi, it's your turn now."

With this thought in mind, Xie Chi quickened his movements

Xie Chi and Yan Jing were assigned to work on the fifth floor

Such small footprints, they must belong to a little ghost

I am good at managing daily life and wish to get married

Yan Jing heard the familiar sound of footsteps and joyfully approached. The somewhat headstrong Xie Chi immediately restrained his smile and became serious and reliable: "Go in, take a look at the stairwell."

Perhaps the elevator ... ...

He is truly remarkable

What is he doing

It is late at night and I am very hungry

The stairwell is shrouded in darkness

Not long ago, the sun was still setting in the west, and in just an hour or two, the sky outside had completely darkened due to the passage of time

Xie Chi coughed lightly twice and secretly added in her heart, "There is also reliance on my boyfriend"

Yan Jing asked curiously while walking, "Brother Xie, what did you buy?"

Yan Jing, a bit frightened, held onto him and said: "Xie Ge, why don't we just not go? Although there is mostly nothing, it is better to be safe than sorry..."

I suspect that what I am watching is a comedy film

Yan Jing listened to the corrosive sound of "zala zala" and exclaimed in terror, "The blood is highly toxic! Brother Xie, don't touch him!"

Xie Chi: "Not afraid."

What did he scatter on the ground? I cannot understand it.

He believes that no one can resist such temptation, for after all, seeing ghosts in horror films means being able to escape first and foremost, significantly increasing the chances of survival

Xie Chi took out a tissue and wiped his hands, sneering, "There must be a cost, for example, burning your life?"

The head of the male infant was swallowed by the victorious Gu worm in the struggle, becoming permanently attached to the head of the Gu worm

Xie Chi paused the action of turning off the faucet.

If one disregards the large and small bags hanging from his left and right hands

There are no good things in this world that fall from the sky like pies; if there were, we wouldn't be here. Xie Chi smiled, "Since you have called me 'brother', what else can I do for you?"

Handsome, strong, and completely uncomplaining, I also want to have a boyfriend like that

Xie Chi saw the small footprints on the ground in front of him, but he did not move

Headless ... ... ?

... ...

The fifth floor is quite spacious, similar to typical office spaces. Notably, there is an additional billiard room for entertainment purposes.

Even with his blinded eyes, Yan Jing did not forget to frantically signal to Xie Chi, the meaning was very clear: if things go awry, quickly flee for your life

The infant boy walked slowly towards the billiard room on the fifth floor, silent, as black blood continuously dripped from the severed part of his neck, leaving a deep corrosive mark on the ground

The following will begin.

Cold and shattered, the tone is left with mere indulgence

Brothers, please pay attention

Xie Chi stared at the little ghost, whose clothes were tattered and whose body bore no good flesh. Originally fair and tender skin was covered with... the marks of poisonous insect bites. Xie Chi could even see worm eggs resembling maggots in the deep wounds.

The baby boy turned to Xie Chi and said, "Brother, your two eggs are broken."

Yan Jing was caught off guard, completely unsure of how to respond. He never expected that just by mentioning it casually, Xie Chi would instantly grasp the entire context and the sequence of events, with a terrifying sharpness.

At this moment, the APP rang.

The famous prop in American horror films—the temperature-controlled camera. When a ghost appears, it usually gets suddenly cold. This device is temperature-controlled; when the temperature drops, it automatically takes a picture, allowing it to capture the appearance of the ghost.

It is uncertain whether the incandescent light will still be on later

The app has notified

Thank you, Brother Xie

Yan Jing originally thought that his kindness towards him was a way of waiting for him to fully explain himself, but he never expected it to be like this. After a moment of shock, he became even more certain of his previous thoughts and said earnestly: "Brother, do you want to... see a ghost?"

The personal storyline has been updated, and the agreement with the male infant—actor Xie Chi engages in a game of snooker with the male infant. If he wins, he will safely get through tonight; if he loses, he must escape

Due to the constraints of time, Xie Chi was unable to successfully hail a taxi upon his return and could only call upon Xie Xinglan to act as a tractor

If the circuit suddenly trips later, and ultraviolet light shines on the phosphor, it can reveal ghostly handprints and footprints on the ground, which can help determine if a ghost is nearby, facilitating an escape

What the hell! So many bloodstains and handprints!

Xie Chidao: "Mirror, you go to work first"

"No." Xie Chi is washing his hands, "I judge people purely based on my mood; how others treat me is irrelevant, and I am not particularly interested."

The passing pedestrians stared in astonishment

Xie Chi suddenly thought of the head of the infant head gu

Xie Chi had a sudden flash of inspiration, leading to a terrifying hypothesis

The temperature-controlled camera seems to have flickered for a moment

Yan Jing was stunned, his hands trembling uncontrollably, and he was unable to speak for a long time

With a "thud," a drop of black blood fell to the ground, and then, visibly, the tiled floor was corroded, creating a hole.

The baby boy walked while tossing and catching two boiled eggs. Because he had no head, he could not see the eggs and failed to catch them. With two thuds, the eggs fell to the ground and broke.

As it approached 10 PM, Yan Jing stood at the entrance of the company building, anxiously waiting for Xie Chi to return
