There are good people and bad people in the world.
The same is true in the deep world. Some ghosts are full of malice when they are human beings, and become even worse after death, becoming evil ghosts spreading despair. However, there are also some ghosts who still have good intentions hidden in their hearts even if they die unjustly.
"What's your name? When the opportunity comes, I will take you to meet your brother."
"Firefly, my mother said that there is a bug in the world that can glow in the dark. It is called a firefly, but I have never seen it."
"There are many parents who hope to have a child, but this is the first time I have seen one who hopes to have a child." Han Fei asked the child to take the ball and leave quickly: "Don't play here anymore. Tell me your home address and I will find you."
of."
"My mother and I live in a hotel next to a convenience store. My mother has been reluctant to leave, as if she is waiting for my brother to come back."
The child had some difficulty speaking. After he took the initiative to tell Han Fei his home address, he ran away with the ball in his arms.
"This kid is quite interesting..." He turned around and stared at the wall in the back alley for a long time. In fact, Han Fei was more concerned about the dark shadows on the wall. All the "people" who worked as shop assistants here seemed to have the same fate in the end.
He was killed, and some of his remaining souls were imprisoned on the wall of the back alley.
Over time, the walls of this back alley are densely covered with faint humanoid outlines, and each humanoid outline represents a staff member.
"It's probably not the first time that Yinghuo ran into the back alley to play, but the ghosts on the walls of the back alley not only didn't kill Yinghuo and took away Yinghuo's soul, they even took the initiative to play games with him."
"When I opened the door just now, the ghost on the wall seemed to be trying to help Yinghuo hide. No one made any movement to expose Yinghuo's location."
The remnant souls on the wall wanted to protect Yinghuo very tacitly. From this point of view alone, Han Fei felt that those remnant souls could become his friends.
"It seems that most of my colleagues and seniors are good people!"
Looking at the wall in the back alley, Han Fei bowed slightly: "It's my first day on the job. Please take care of me, seniors."
He saw that there was still nothing unusual on the wall, so he entered the house. However, when he was about to close the door, he vaguely saw the outline of a human figure on the wall begin to move slowly, and everyone seemed to be discussing something.
"All the former store employees have been sealed into the wall. I'm curious why the store manager doesn't just kill them to avoid future troubles? Does the store manager still need their remnant souls to control their power?"
The power of a regretful soul is not particularly strong, but when hundreds of regrets gather together, it becomes a very terrifying force.
"jingle!"
The soul bell at the door rang again, and Han Fei was about to walk into the house when a biting chill suddenly came from the landlord's ring on his hand.
Gently touching the cracks on the ring, Han Fei hid in the garbage disposal room and took a look outside.
The one-eyed clerk stood at the checkout counter. In front of him was a woman in red who was nearly 2.5 meters tall.
The woman wore a blood-red hijab, a bright red wedding dress, and a white flower hanging on her chest.
Almost as soon as the woman appeared, the temperature in the convenience store dropped to freezing point, and the one-eyed clerk became very polite and received her seriously.
Most of the time it was the one-eyed clerk who asked, and the woman only nodded occasionally. Han Fei didn't fully hear the conversation between them. He only vaguely heard the words Tou Qi, Huihun, Death Building, No. 144, etc.
A few minutes later, the one-eyed clerk walked out of the checkout counter and motioned for the woman to follow him into the warehouse.
When the woman who was more than two meters tall turned around, she paused towards the garbage disposal room where Han Fei was hiding. Her hijab was blown by the cold wind, and Han Fei saw a split mouth.
"Did she find me?"
The woman did not make things difficult for Han Fei. She slowly entered the warehouse holding a bloody package in her hands that were much larger than ordinary people.
There was no abnormal sound, and the light in the warehouse suddenly dimmed a lot.
There was a cough, and the one-eyed clerk walked out of the warehouse carrying a paper figure that was the same height as an ordinary person. The paper figure had a smile on its face and covered the clerk's eyes with his hands.
The woman in the wedding dress also came out, but the blood-stained package in her hand was missing.
The soul bell rang, and the one-eyed clerk carried the paper figure on his back and left the convenience store together with the woman in the wedding dress.
"The one-eyed paper man walking on his back is completely different from the ordinary paper man. The expression on his face is the same as that of a living person. So the paper man is the shop owner?"
When the temperature in the store returned to normal, Han Fei quietly walked to the door of the warehouse. The white wax in the warehouse went out and it was dark inside.
"Even if the paper man walking away with one eye is not the store owner, there should be some awareness of the boss among the paper men. After all, the expression of the paper man is almost the same as that of a living person. He also knows how to cover the eyes of the clerk, as if he is worried about the one-eyed man.
To what."
Han Fei didn't believe that an ordinary paper man could be so smart. It was probably the store owner who was behind this.
"The woman in the wedding dress is very powerful and makes me feel scarier than Xu Qin. She seemed to want to ask the store owner for help when she entered the store. The package should contain the reward for the store owner."
Following the blood stains on the ground, Han Fei came to the last row of shelves in the warehouse.
It felt uncomfortable to be stared at by paper figures, but Han Fei also realized something after walking here.
When he first came here, the eyes of those paper figures were no different from the eyes of living people, containing a variety of emotions.
But this time when I came in, the eyes of those paper figures were dull, as if they had lost their souls.
"The blood stains stopped here." Han Fei stared at a paper figure in front of him and took it off.
There was a gap between the paper man's back and the wall. Han Fei looked inside and found a coffin hidden behind the last row of shelves.
"It's secretive enough." Han Fei memorized the locations of all the paper figures, then took down a few paper figures and got behind the shelves.
When his hands touched the coffin lid, Gui Wen let out a heartbreaking scream. The pain was simply unbearable. The problem was that it was not Han Fei who was hurting.
"Brother, please bear with me for a while."
The package sent by the wedding woman had been opened, and the blood-stained red cloth fell to the side. Han Fei pushed the coffin lid open with both hands.
Inside the coffin were bodies belonging to different people, and in the middle of the assembled bodies was a blood-red paper man the size of a palm.
The paper man had his eyes closed, as if he was asleep.
If you look carefully, you will find that there are countless resentful faces screaming on the paper man, many of which Han Fei has seen in the photos in the staff preparation room.
"This paper man wants to have a real body?"
Han Fei was fully focused and very nervous when a voice suddenly came from somewhere in the room.
"Help me, help me..."
Han Fei was startled and almost fell into the coffin.
He opened his eyes wide and looked around, and finally discovered that the sound was coming from the white wax.
Squatting next to the candle, Han Fei stared at the other person, as if the words "kill and silence" were written on his face.
"You are the new clerk, right? The curse you have received is not deep yet. Take me out of here quickly, and I will repay you!" The face on the white wax was very blurry, and he tried his best to make a sound: "That paper man
Gone, it rarely leaves the store, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
"A candle wants to move me? I am loyal to the store manager, and you can't shake it with just a few words." Han Fei's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"You peeled off the lid of the store manager's coffin on your first day at work. How can you be loyal?"
"I just want to get to know him better."
"You are a smart man, let's not waste time." The human face on the candle kept crying: "Do you know why the candles in this store can burn all night? Do you know why the light emitted by this candle makes people
Do the lonely ghosts passing by feel comfortable?"
"Why?"
"All the candles in the warehouse are corpse wax, made from the body of the monster and the clerk Can Nian. It likes to hear the cries of Can Nian when it is ignited." The human face on the candle began to become distorted: "You
If you don't leave, you will turn into a candle sooner or later! I know how to get rid of the curse. You take me away with you and I will help you get rid of the curse!"
"You seem to know the store manager very well?"
"I used to be a store clerk here. The store manager's identity is the bloody paper man in the coffin. It is a special cursed object. It slowly develops its own ideas because it continuously absorbs resentment. Everyone who enters the store will become its target.
.Either become a commodity, or become a clerk and work for the tiger, but there will be no good end for the ghost! We clerks will also die! And the death will not be peaceful, and the remaining humanity will be absorbed by the paper man and become a part of it.
"The face in the candle said with a cry.
"Have the humanity of all the store clerks been absorbed by the bloody paper figures?"
"Yes." The human face in the candle glanced at the coffin behind the shelf: "It has absorbed more and more human nature and resentment, and gradually formed its own consciousness. Usually it will hide its consciousness somewhere.
Among the paper figures, if you put your own body in a coffin and nourish it with your flesh and blood, all the paper figures in the store may be its clones..."
"So, haven't we been seen by it?"
"But tonight is different! The ghost of the bride and groom sent the most important head and heart to the paper shop manager. As a reward, the manager of the paper shop needs to help the ghost of the bride and groom kill a person." The face on the white wax knows a lot.
Things, it has been placed on the counter and overheard a lot of things: "The man lives in the dead building and is very dangerous. Only by gathering all the resentment and strength can the store manager have a chance to successfully kill the other person. Once he successfully kills the other person, it will
We will be able to obtain more things and accelerate our growth, and then we will no longer be able to escape."
"Does that mean tonight is the only chance?"
"Don't miss this opportunity, it will never come back!" The human face on the white wax persuaded frantically: "The store manager's curse will prevent you from approaching its body and prohibit you from leaving the convenience store. Once you trigger the curse, you will suffer great pain.
.But if it suffers heavy damage, the curse will be weakened, and the pain you endure will also be weakened. So don’t have any scruples, take me away with you! This is our only chance to escape, and I will tell you how to lift the curse.
.”
"Wait a minute, if the store manager was hit hard, why are we leaving?"
"You have been cursed by it, and you have no power to resist in front of it! Please listen to me! Take me away quickly."
"Don't worry, I have a better idea now." Han Fei stared at the coffin behind the shelf with a strange expression: "If I close the store on the first day of joining the job, then there will be no one left in the future.
Hired me?"
Han Fei glanced at the mission panel, and he vaguely understood why this mission required him to survive for one night, because after this night, the store might be gone.
