Chapter 67: Searching the Room
Xu Hao and I searched for one in the first floor room, and Lin Zi and Qin Hao went to the second floor. When we opened several rooms, except for some dust, the furniture was empty when we opened them. No one lived in these rooms and hadn't cleaned them for a long time.
When we arrived at the corner room, we heard something moving in the room. Xu Hao and I looked at each other. Is it a ghost in this room? I twisted the lock of the door, but couldn't open it, as if the door was locked.
Xu Hao and I looked at each other. The room was very problematic. I asked Xu Hao to go to Butler Wang to ask for the key. Xu Hao quickly ran up the stairs to the third floor. I put my ear on the door and tried to see if I could hear anything.
When I heard it for half a minute and was about to leave, I heard a "dong" sound. I was so excited that I could hear the sound again. I didn't hear any sound this time, and I was about to retreat this time. The door vibrated, and the "dong" sound made my ears uncomfortable and covered them with my hands. What's going on? There are really people in the room who knocked on the door with such great strength. They scared me and my ears were almost deaf.
If the door wasn't open, how could you teach you a lesson? After waiting for a few minutes, Butler Wang and Xu Hao hurried over. Butler Wang greeted me: "I'll open the door. There is a lot of unwanted furniture in this room, so I usually lock it up."
I nodded, took off the cloth, revealing the sword blade shining by light. Butler Wang opened the door and gave us a seat to let us in. I took the sword and walked in carefully. Xu Hao followed closely behind me. There was indeed a lot of old furniture inside, some were broken, and some new had turned into old ones. The dust inside was quite heavy, and I hadn't cleaned it for a long time.
Xu Hao and I gently opened each furniture, and it was empty. The dust flew into the air, and the nose smelled the dust. I couldn't stand it, so I opened the window and let the air blow away the dust.
There was no suspicious place around, so how did that sound come out? What happened with the last knock on the door? Even if it was done by a ghost, there must be some trace, but no trace was found here.
I didn't let go of any details, and lay on the ground and looked down at the furniture. Suddenly, black object jumped out and screamed wildly: "Meow..."
I was scared and stood up quickly. Xu Hao had already been scared to the side. Butler Wang was also frightened, but he was calmer than us. We looked at the black object. It turned out to be a black cat, so why was it in this room?
I asked Mr. Wang: "Why is this black cat in this room? Didn't you know before?"
Butler Wang explained: "I really don't know. I have never seen this cat. The door has not been opened for a month. It's really strange. Could it be that the master said that the female ghost did it?"
I asked curiously: "Have you really not seen a female ghost here? Why can only Mr. He see it?"
Mr. Wang said: "I have never seen a female ghost. Seeing the master's condition, I also believe that there are ghosts."
I nodded, then it was possible that the female ghost had been here in this room. The light cat couldn't make sense, so why did she stay in this room for a month? And it was impossible for the cat to knock on the door just now. How could the cat have such great strength? It is difficult for the female ghost to explain it except for the female ghost.
I was lying on the ground, looking down at the direction where the cat was walking out, and the cabinet was empty. But I carefully found that there was a hair. I picked it up and Xu Hao leaned forward to look at the long hair on my hand.
Xu Hao said: "Brother Kai, you have such sharp eyes, you haven't let it go. But how can there be women's hair here? Can female ghosts also have hair?"
I shook my head, I have never seen a real female ghost. If Xiao Yue, the crazy woman in the school, was considered a ghost, that invincible ghost, who could beat her. I hope I would not meet a ghost like her, otherwise I would be in trouble.
I replied to Xu Hao, "It's hard to say. It's really possible that it's ghost hair. Let's show them first."
Xu Hao and Butler Wang followed me, and the three of us found Han Xin and handed her hair. Telling him what happened in the room surprised Han Lu, Han Xin and Han Xue. This was indeed too weird.
Han Xin said: "The owner of this hair has existed for at least seventy years. It seems that the former mistress of this villa has died here, and it may be in that room."
Han Xin learned a lot of skills from Master Ji Ming, and naturally he could see the age of ghosts. Xu Hao raised his thumb and said, "It's so amazing. You can identify the age by looking at a piece of hair."
Han Xin smiled and nodded, "It's very simple. You can tell your age by looking at the fading hair and boring hair."
Lin Zi and Qin Hao came over at this time and said to us: "Strange, I clearly saw a black shadow in the room and escaped from the window, but Qin Hao actually said he didn't see it, and he kept saying that I was dazzled."
I also told them about my experience just now, and they looked at me in surprise. It also means that there are really black shadows in the forest, maybe they are female ghosts. There is indeed something wrong with this villa, so you need to investigate carefully before you can do it.
Butler Wang asked, "What else do you have to tell me? I want to buy vegetables and cook for you. The master wants you to stay for dinner tonight."
I thanked and said, "How dare you take it? Let's go out and eat, there is no need to be such a trouble. Thank you Mr. He for your kindness, we appreciate it."
Mr. Wang said: "The master told me that I would definitely let you stay and eat. If you don't agree, it will be difficult for me to deal with it."
I had no choice but to nod and thanked again: "Thank you first, let's stay and eat."
Butler Wang then left with a smile and went out to buy vegetables. He looked at Mr. He's room on the third floor and I greeted them, meaning they were told to go outside the door. Our group arrived at the door of the first floor and I said to everyone: "Be careful when you have dinner, just in case they will poison the wine table."
Lin Zi said disbelief: "No, we can help him destroy ghosts, how could we harm us?"
Han Lu said: "I think Akai is right. We don't know Mr. He and this butler Wang. I suspect that Mr. He has not explained some things clearly to us. There are too many doubts, so it's right to be careful."
Han Xin said: "I also think Akai is right. Ghosts are not scary, what is scary is the heart of the people."
Everyone else agreed with me and was confident, saying, "Then let's not show any expressions, check the last floor and the third floor first. See if they have any secrets hidden. After finding them, the truth will be revealed. If you can't find them, wait for the opportunity."
The others nodded in agreement, and I continued, "Then I will meet this Mr. He later. You can check it on the third floor to see if you can find clues."
