Chapter 0227 Mysteries

 A moment ago, he was still pretending to be stupid, but when Jiang Yue said that it was worthless and wanted to be destroyed, he immediately showed a look of panic.

It fully shows that these two ghosts are intelligent.

It is generally not easy for newly created ghosts to activate their wisdom.

Then, the logic behind this is worth pondering. Most of these ghosts are controlled by someone behind the scenes, someone helps unlock their wisdom, and even continues the memory of their lifetime.

Jiang Yue had learned about this technique from the inheritance of the Jiang family.

People have always been afraid of ghosts, but not many people know that ghosts are also afraid of people.

Jiang Yue saw the fear in these two ghosts and thought he could find out something through interrogation.

Just as he was thinking about how to speak, the two ghosts in his hands suddenly became extremely anxious and frightened.

Before Jiang Yue could react, the two ghosts quickly turned into smoke in his hands. At the same time, waves of irritating foot odor burst out, which quickly dissipated in Jiang Yue's hands.

The two ghosts barely had time to let out a brief whine before completely dissipating from Jiang Yue's hands.

Jiang Yue was dumbfounded, looking at the green smoke dissipating in the palm of his hand, and he was also filled with surprise.

But he soon understood.

This is the action of the person behind it!

When the opponent controls these ghosts, he can not only drive them, but also control their life and death with a single thought.

Jiang Yue actually knew how to do this.

Unexpectedly, on this strange night, a person with such means actually appeared.

The ghost that had been burned by Luo Chu's aura of immunity from all evil had a look of horror on his face before he died.

It seemed to have a strong premonition that it would be its turn next.

He looked at Jiang Yue with horrified eyes, with a strong sense of asking for help.

This ghost should have been a woman in her thirties when she was alive. She didn't look like a vicious person, but just an ordinary office worker.

I don’t know what kind of disaster he suffered, and he became like this. He is actually a pitiful victim.

Jiang Yue probably saw what this ghost was thinking and wanted to save it, but he couldn't do anything.

With this kind of control method, life and death all depend on the controller's thoughts. Even if Jiang Yue has extraordinary means, unless he can attack remotely, he can kill the controller behind him instantly.

Otherwise, there is no way to break this deadlock.

The dying ghost probably saw that Jiang Yue was helpless, but its eyes were full of sadness and reluctance? That expression clearly didn't look like a heartless and senseless ghost? Rather, it looked like a terminally ill, dying person? What about this?

The world is full of reluctance? It seems that there is something that cannot be let go.

When a man is about to die, his words are kind; when a ghost is about to perish, his cry is also mournful.

Sure enough, before the ghost could make another move, its ghostly body began to tremble, then slowly and quickly faded away as it swayed, turning into a burst of green smoke that quickly dissipated in the air.

There was only an unwilling cry left, and it completely faded into nothingness.

When the smoke dissipates, this person or ghost will completely disappear from this world without leaving any trace.

It turned out that the ghosts attacked them secretly.

Logically speaking, the relationship should be hostile, but Jiang Yue couldn't feel the slightest bit happy when he saw the ghosts disappear? Instead, he felt secretly uncomfortable.

"Xiao Jiang, look at the ground!"

There were messy playing cards on the ground. After the ghost finally disappeared, three cards appeared very regularly in the place where the ghost just fell.

These three cards were neatly arranged, obviously not randomly falling on the ground.

What’s more, all three cards are face down. If you don’t reveal them, you will never be able to tell what they are.

Jiang Yue stepped forward, slightly opened a corner, glanced at it, and put the three cards into the pile.

A,8,j.

The suits of these three cards are different, and the numbers are also different.

But such a combination must be meaningful.

In playing cards, A also represents 1 and 8. Of course, it goes without saying that J, in numerical order, should be 11.

Combined, it’s 1811?

Is it another room number?

The room numbers come one after another, just like hide and seek. Is it not over yet?

Jiang Yue secretly memorized these three cards, but remained calm and said nothing.

After this series of changes, he always felt that every move, word and deed they made here seemed to be being monitored at all times.

Even their conversations can be heard by the other party.

Therefore, with every move they make and their intentions, the other party can always prepare one step ahead, creating chaos and interference for them, causing them to make various misjudgments.

Principal Mei hinted at their apartment No. 1814, which was definitely not without some profound meaning.

No matter what those three cards want to express, Jiang Yue will not delve into it for the time being.

As soon as I arrived at Apartment 1814, I encountered four ghosts that transformed into human forms, and they had an inexplicable fight, but I didn't even have time to find out what was wrong with this apartment.

Principal Mei deliberately left fingernail scratches on the newspaper to hint at this place. He must be expressing something, and he probably knew something about it.

After the fight, the whole living room looked a little messy. Not only were cards scattered on the floor, but the tables and chairs were overturned.

In addition to the table where we played cards just now, there is also a mahjong table in the living room.

This is the most special thing about this apartment. There is no sofa or TV cabinet in the living room. There is actually a card table and a mahjong table.

However, other than that, Jiang Yue and his wife walked around the living room and didn't see anything special.

The only thing that surprised Jiang Yue was that the owner of this apartment was very thoughtful. He developed a large photo of the party and sealed it very well. He also specially made a photo frame and hung it on the wall of the living room.

It looks like a giant painting.

It looks very conspicuous.

This has an advantage. With such a large photo, everyone can be seen clearly. It looks much more conspicuous than the photo of Principal Mei just now.

Jiang Yue quickly found the four ghosts that just appeared in the photo. When the photo was taken, they were still alive in the photo.

It can be seen that the social activity in this apartment was really well done, and the relationship between the neighbors was very harmonious. From the expressions of everyone in the photo, it can be seen that the social activity that day was very successful.

Looking at the date of the sorority party, it was just over half a month ago.

At that time, it was the initial stage of the epidemic, and perhaps the evil wind had not yet blown here. Therefore, everyone looked so happy and peaceful.

Perhaps everyone is under various pressures when working outside, but in this Yinyuan Apartment, everyone seems to have found a feeling of home.

"Luo Chu..." Jiang Yue looked at the photo for a while.

When he looked carefully at the face of the person in seat C in the front row for a while, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. This person actually felt like he had seen him before.

In terms of appearance, this person is indeed a stranger. But this person has oily hair and a pink face, and the aura behind that dignified appearance, but I always feel that he looks like someone else.

Luo Chu followed Jiang Yue's gaze and also noticed this person.

The enlarged version of the photo is particularly clear.

Both of them thought of someone almost at the same time.

That Master Liu who is secretly wanted by the Action Bureau!

Just by looking at his face, he is definitely not Master Liu. But his temperament and appearance are exactly the replica of Master Liu. Perhaps it is because he is too complacent. In the photo, the person in the photo has not restrained his aura at all. He is in high spirits and seems to be enjoying himself.

Moments like this.

Therefore, the person in the photo has nothing to hide.

Jiang Yue knew very well that even a warlock like Yu Yuan knew how to change his makeup and appearance. To put it bluntly, he knew how to disguise himself.

With Master Liu's skills far surpassing Yu Yuan's, and his ability to play tricks on others, it's really easy to change his appearance.

This kind of old cunning guy hides in the city.

Everyone thought he must have escaped from Star City, but he did the opposite, hiding in this apartment, showing others another face, and doing things secretly.

This is completely logical!

If this bastard was behind it, it wouldn't be surprising at all if this entire apartment building turned into a ghost building.

This guy was originally a villain. He regarded human life as nothing, killed people like nothing, and never took other people's lives seriously.

As long as he achieves his goal, anyone can be killed and anyone can be sacrificed.

Back in Yunshan Times Square, Jiang Yue had already experienced the viper nature of this guy.

Jiang Yue was not surprised at all to say that this matter had something to do with him.

However, Jiang Yue remained calm.

Luo Chu and Jiang Yue had a tacit understanding, and he could understand Jiang Yue's look. The two of them had a good understanding and would not let it slip.

In Yunshan Times Square, the people behind the scenes brought hundreds of people to the stage.

Master Liu and the forces behind him like to play big tricks.

There must be at least one to two hundred permanent residents in this apartment.

There is no doubt that this is a big deal.

This apartment on No. 14 is a corner apartment at the end of the corridor. It is relatively spacious and has a much larger area.

Leaving the living room, the two opened the bedroom door.

As soon as the door opened, Jiang Yue's nose suddenly smelled a faint strange smell.

This gives people an uncomfortable feeling, with a kind of gloomy and dead air, making people feel that the room seems to be haunted by ghosts.

The bedroom is a suite with a bedroom, a dressing room, and its own bathroom, which is very spacious.

It doesn't seem like much to the naked eye.

The two of them each had a torch and looked around, refusing to miss any detail.

After checking around, the two looked at each other. On the surface, it can be said that there is no flaw in this bedroom. Even the sheets and bedding are neat and tidy, as if someone has tidied it specially.

There were some clothes hanging in the cloakroom. It was just an ordinary woman's apartment, and there was nothing unusual about it.

However, there are several sets of work clothes hanging in the cloakroom, and one of the work clothes has a work badge with a certain property written on it.

It is inferred from this that the original owner of this house should be the property management staff. And it is very likely that it is the property owner of this apartment.

Judging from the size of her clothes and pants, the property worker should be a woman with a pretty good figure.

Soon, Jiang Yue found a wallet next to the bedside table. The ID card in the wallet showed that the owner was indeed a 28-year-old woman.

She seems to be unmarried.

But this doesn't seem to be important.

Judging from the ID photo, this woman was not among the four ghosts playing cards in the room just now.

And there are indeed many playing cards in her room. In addition, there is a lot of change in the drawer of her cabinet, which is roughly estimated to be ten or twenty thousand.

According to normal logic, for a property worker who does not open a store, so much change is indeed a bit exaggerated.

However, through those playing cards, as well as the card table and mahjong table in the living room, Jiang Yue probably guessed that the property staff should be very familiar with the owner.

Owners often come to her house to play cards and mahjong.

These small changes are probably prepared for those poker friends, Mayou.

This kind of family-style gambling parlors are actually found in many communities. They are relatively hidden and private, and are less likely to be targeted than mahjong parlors.

And the comfort will be much better.

The core thing of this apartment seems to be in one word, gamble!

Every detail seems to imply this.

But if it was just a small gambling house, would Principal Mei have made those hidden hints?

One thing is for sure, Mr. Mei is probably an old poker player and an old mahjong friend. He must have come to this apartment to play cards or mahjong before he was alive.

The real estate agent runs a small gambling room at home, and it can be seen to some extent that this woman is not simple, she is definitely a social person.

None of this is the point.

The point is, this bedroom looks neat and tidy, but the gloomy and deathly atmosphere Jiang Yue felt when he opened the door never dissipated.

This feeling is difficult to express in words, it is more like an intuition.

But this intuition is very real.

Jiang Yue could conclude that people had definitely died in this bedroom, and more than one or two of them had died.

Could it be...

Is this house simply a massacre site?

Attract gamblers to come in, and then kill the lone gamblers without anyone noticing?

With the way Principal Mei died, he was hung up in the air and strangled to death without even seeing blood. It was indeed possible to avoid disturbing the neighbors.

However, those hints in the newspaper were obviously left by Principal Mei when he was still alive. In other words, Principal Mei knew that one day it would be his turn to kill.

He had already been mentally prepared.

The scratches on the newspaper and the recording on the Walkman were actually arranged by Principal Mei deliberately and covertly.

But the question is, why did Principal Mei know this? Why did he know that there was something wrong with Apartment 1814?

Perhaps, after someone had an accident, Principal Mei came here to play cards? Did he accidentally gain insight into the conspiracy here?

But because he was an old man and pretended to be dumbfounded, he managed to escape the disaster at that time?

Of course, all this is just Jiang Yue's imagination.

What is the specific situation? Unless we can communicate with the ghost of old Principal Mei, it will be difficult to completely restore it.

The situation cannot be restored, but some reasonable speculations can be made.

Jiang Yue can basically surmise that this apartment is definitely a key point in the apartment massacre incident. If not the only key point, it is definitely one of them.

Of course, Jiang Yue speculated that such a large apartment could house at least one to two hundred people. It would be difficult to trap and kill people in this apartment alone.

As for ghosts killing people, although it is easy, it is difficult to ensure that no one is missed.

Therefore, at present, it is very likely that this is an extremely complex and multi-pronged killing incident, in which not only ghosts but also human accomplices are involved.

As for whether the human accomplices are still alive, that's another story.
