Chapter 951: Live Bait
I didn't sleep all night last night. After drinking some wine, I felt very sleepy and couldn't even open my eyelids. The dead girl told me, "You just lie on the table and sleep for a while, and I'll keep watch for you on duty. I slept until the evening when I woke up. After dinner at the snack bar, we set off back to Tangmi Village.
When we arrived at the foot of the mountain, Lao Cao suddenly said that it was a bit early to go back to the mountain, so why not play a game. We were stunned and asked him what he wanted to play. Could it be that he was playing Landlord? Who lost and drew a turtle on his head?
Lao Cao said that all the mysteries he encountered in the past two days were related to the girl's disappearance case. As long as he caught the murderer, everything would be solved, and even the secret of the haunted house would be solved. However, to catch the murderer, bait must be put on, and the best candidate is Nie Min. She was chased for a long time the night before last and finally escaped, and the murderer must be unwilling to accept it. If he returns to the place to wait for the rabbit today, he might have gained something.
After hearing this, I shook my head and said to Lao Cao: "Are you crazy? If you can't put this bait properly, it will take Nie Min's life. We can't do this."
Nie Min was very interested and volunteered: "No problem, I'm not afraid of death. Besides, you two ghost catching masters are so powerful, how could I have trouble?"
I thought to myself that the little girl would not bother to watch the fun, and would end up losing her life. I was so angry that I said to her: "Don't flatter us, you can see clearly what we are capable of. Until now, they are fooled by each other, but they don't even see the true face of others."
Nie Min said seriously: "I didn't flatter you, really. We stayed safely in the old house until dawn last night. That's not your awesome, we've died long ago. You didn't hear the boss say that that person... he has become eunuchs."
Lao Cao grinned and said, "Boy, don't worry about Nie Min, she is smart. She can escape the murderer's claws by one person, let alone we are watching, nothing will happen."
The two of them sang together, leaving the buddies with nothing to say. The Dead Girl thinks that Lao Cao's idea is not impossible. The problem is that the three of us were together last night and broke into the haunted house. It is difficult to say whether the murderer will be deceived tonight. Lao Cao heard me telling the Dead Girl's doubts and said that there is no need to worry about this. Let's stay away and prevent the murderer from discovering it. He probably wouldn't have thought that this was a trap.
Now it's just dark. According to the law of the murderer's crime, it's still early, so we have plenty of time to ambush. Now, Nie Min leads the way to find the place where she met the murderer that night. She said she was confused and couldn't remember where she came from. It seemed that it was on this mountain, near the fall of Little Buddha last night. So we quickly climbed over the mountain and arrived at the place where Little Buddha was injured. She pointed to the southwest and said that she had met a ghost here. Then she fled all the way down the hillside and finally slipped into the ghost's gutter along a crack.
She said this, reminding us of the old house she had been covered in gray fog last night, maybe she was following her escape route. But when she entered the ghost gutter, she was walking on flat ground, and she didn't feel like she was falling from the crack of the rock. This made us unable to understand what was going on. Now we don't think so much, and when we catch the murderer, it will be the truth.
So Nie Min was asked to pretend to be crying here. We found a thick grass nest from afar. Not to mention the night, it was not easy to be discovered even during the day. And we did evil spirit escape again, and even if the dead ghost came, we could not find that there were other people hidden here. Although we were a bit far away, Lao Cao had planned and held the black snake whip in his hand. Once something happened, he flew out and waved the whip at the same time, which would definitely protect Nie Min. What's more, the dead girl was ready at the same time. Our speed was not slower than the ghost.
Nie Min's acting skills are pretty good. She sat on the ground and cried loudly, crying and scolding: "Two shameless bastards, lie to me, little girl money, is there any humanity..." She performed a scene of being kidnapped, which also made the murderer feel doubtful. Today we were still together and separated for Mao tonight.
After crying for a long time, she suddenly stopped and coughed. I was afraid that something would go wrong, so I asked the dead girl to observe the surroundings and didn't notice the enemy situation. She hurriedly ran over and asked her what was wrong. The girl said with a bitter face: "I'm so angry that I'm dry. When will I scold you?"
"Persevere persist." My buddy threw this sentence and ran back, thinking that this was what you asked for, who made you so happy to be a bait?
Nie Min cried intermittently in the middle of the night, and as time passed, it was almost eleven o'clock in the night. Lao Cao and I were a little impatient. The murderer could not be the little Buddha, right? He was ascending to the sky, making us waste our efforts in the middle of the night here. While we were thinking about whether to finish work, we heard a sound from afar.
"Someone!" The dead girl called the police immediately, her eyes aimed at the southwest.
"Is it a human or a ghost?" I asked nervously.
"It's a human!" The dead girl answered very decisively.
At this time, Nie Min had not heard the sound and continued howling there. The little girl was so excited that she scolded us both.
After the sound of movement, it took a full half minute before a slight sound of footsteps came over. The sound was extremely weak. If we were not for our smart ears, ordinary people would never hear it. However, Nie Min's ears were also quite powerful. She was stunned in the dark for a moment, and then continued to cry and scold.
As the footsteps slowly approached, we finally saw a black shadow flashing between the trees. Lao Cao immediately lowered his head and exuded a breath of ready to go. I didn't dare to poke my head out of the grass to avoid exposing my hiding. I only rely on the dead girl to observe the situation outside through the gaps in the grass.
"How could this happen?" The dead girl seemed to see the man clearly, but was surprised. "He wore a hood sewn with dog skin on his head, and the clothes he wore were also sewn with dog skin. I couldn't see what he looked like."
The bloody dog skin itself has the effect of exorcising evil spirits. This man is armed with dog skin. It is not easy for a dead girl to see a figure. How can he see clearly what this person looks like? His uncle, this grandson is too cunning, and he actually prevents being discovered by ghosts and has made such a good outfit. But after thinking about it, he doesn't know that we are hiding here. Even if we know, he doesn't know that there is a dead ghost on my buddy. Oh, I understand, is it to hide it from the way of heaven?
I couldn't help but look up and peek out, but it was pitch black all around, and I could only see Nie Min's outline and a black shadow that was only four or five meters away from her. Even the dog skin couldn't see clearly.
At this moment, Nie Min should have noticed that the shadow was not far behind him, and his voice began to tremble: "Two bastards, where are you? Why haven't you come back yet? I'm going to die..." This is a signal, let's come over quickly.
