Chapter 4 Don't Trust Anyone

All the unwanted sounds were silenced by this stick. Yu Xing's chest rose and fell violently, his head felt dizzy, and his vision went black.

His physical strength was already weaker than that of ordinary people. Now that he was frightened, his limbs felt weak. He could barely hold the camera and the wooden stick.

"Lu..." The female ghost's eyes widened and water filled her mouth, as if she couldn't believe what kind of treatment she had suffered.

He took advantage of the female ghost's daze and wanted to rest against the door. Unexpectedly, the door opened just as he leaned against it, causing him to almost lose his center of gravity and fall to the ground.

"Can we go?" He was overjoyed, shook his dizzy head, steadied himself, threw the stick and ran out.

There was the sound of a trash can overturning behind him. Yu Xing turned around and saw that the female ghost was angrily squeezing out an arm, supporting it on the tile surface, and suddenly a large part of it came out.

"Sister, I was wrong!" He apologized hastily, and when he looked up, he saw Zhao Yijiu smashing the gray mirror over the sink with his hand, and he also turned around.

"This way!" I don't know what Zhao Yijiu encountered when Yu Xing was trapped. There was a bloody hole on his cheek. The mask was torn off, revealing a cold face with deep features. He said to Yu Xing

He gave a short greeting and rushed out immediately, "Stay away from the mirror and run!"

Stay away from mirrors?

How many ghosts are there in this place?

Yu Xing didn't have time to think too much and subconsciously followed Zhao Yijiu's back, turning his head to glance at the broken lenses in the process.

The lenses were dusty for too long and he was far away, so he couldn't see anything clearly. However, Yu Xing, who had good eyesight, could vaguely see an eye peering outside...

With the sound of the iron door leading to the narrow corridor being opened, the eyes in the mirror blinked.

"I'm so blind that I didn't see anything." He regretted that he was too curious and panting heavily. As soon as he left the toilet, a strong arm covered his mouth and pulled him into the information display room, which opened the door at some point.

"Hmm!" His pupils tightened and he struggled twice, but out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of the familiar fabric of his clothes.

Zhao Yijiu gently closed the door with his other hand. When he found that Yu Xing was no longer struggling or whining, he let go of his hand and whispered: "Squat down."

Yu Xing squatted down with the other party in confusion. Seeing Zhao Yijiu pressing his ear to the door, listening to the noise outside, he couldn't help but ask: "Why don't you run out?"

He had just left the toilet and didn't see Zhao Yijing, and the iron door had obviously been opened before. He thought that the other person had escaped because he ran too fast. He also sighed that it was indeed a very prescient act to use a wooden board to prevent the iron door from closing.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Yijiu actually opened the iron door, then turned back and chose a room closest to the toilet to hide. How brave is this?

He controlled his voice very well. Except for Zhao Yijie who was very close, he would have thought it was some kind of wind if he was a little further away. Zhao Yijiao did not tell him to shut up, but simply replied: "Sooner or later they will catch up with us."

, it’s better to block the vision... here it comes.”

Yu Xing immediately fell silent and froze in place like a stone sculpture.

The one chased out should be the female ghost. It would take some time for her to come out of the urinal, which gave the two of them a chance to choose.

According to normal thinking, she would have thought that the two of them had taken advantage of this time to run from the outside corridor to the hall, and would have chased them directly.

But...I'm just afraid that ghosts' thinking is abnormal.

Yu Xing turned his head little by little, and he remembered that there were two unobstructed glass windows beside the door of the showroom.

"Kekeke..."

Ten seconds later, the female ghost passed by the door with her laughter. She walked decisively according to the voice and did not even glance at the information display room that was just around the corner.

When the laughter faded away and could no longer be heard at all, Yu Xing breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to speak, Zhao Yijiu covered him up again with quick eyes and hands.

Almost at the same time, there was a sound outside the showroom window, a shadow came up, and the sound of teeth clashing was particularly obvious in the silence.

From Yu Xing's perspective, he could just look up from bottom to top to see a twisted white face pressed tightly against the glass. His eyes were wide open and his eyes were rolling around as he took in the scene in the showroom.

Cold sweat instantly flowed down Yu Xing's forehead, and slid coldly down his neck into his collar, making him shiver.

He and Zhao Yijiu were not in a safe position. If the female ghost moved her head again, she would almost be able to see them.

Fortunately, she didn't move the key end after all, as if she just wanted to take a look in every room, and quickly moved to the office 03 window across the road, where there was another sound.

Yu Xing opened his eyes wide, and waited until the female ghost let out an angry "snort" and opened the half-open rusty iron door, then signaled Zhao Yijiu to take his hand away with his eyes.

"Scared me to death." He wiped his mouth in disgust and breathed heavily. Zhao Yijiu looked much calmer.

The two of them stood up. Before Yu Xing could rejoice, his eyesight went dark and he fell forward uncontrollably. He failed to throw himself to the ground. Before he touched the ground, Zhao Yijiu grabbed his arm and half-supported him to stand still.

.

"Injured?" Zhao Yijius asked, no concern could be heard in his tone, and he was still cold.

Yu Xing calmed down and said, "No, it's poverty, anemia."

"..." Zhao Yijiu felt unable to finish his words, and sneered after a while, "Sick Yangzi."

Yu Xing: This...I really can't refute it.

Then he remembered: "Where did you get the injury on your face? Is it serious?"

"After you entered the cubicle, I saw a battery in the sink, so I went to get it." Zhao Yijiu touched his wound and found a finger of blood. He wiped it with his sleeve carelessly, "The one in the mirror

Suddenly a figure appeared behind me and tried to cover my eyes with his hands. I couldn't see well so I smashed the mirror, but the figure's nails still scratched my face in the mirror, leaving a mark in reality - no

Deep, it will stop bleeding soon."

He told the ghost story in an understatement, and Yu Xing really wanted to say "Wow!"

Before Yu Xing could ask, Zhao Yijiu continued: "By the way, I discovered something about the pattern of ghosts appearing."

"I've also discovered this." After hearing Zhao Yijiu's explanation of the cause of the injury, Yu Xing could easily deduce a pattern based on what he had experienced before. He sighed, "As long as we touch the battery, the ghost will sense it, and then

Come find us."

The first time was when he took the battery from the mouse hole. A ghost hand came out of the hole and grabbed his wrist. It was now green.

The second time, Zhao Yijiu probably got the battery on the desk, which caused his perception to be distorted when he searched the cabinet, and he mistook the glass beads for his eyes.

The third time, while he was going to the toilet properly, Zhao Yijiu moved the battery in the sink, allowing the two ghosts to find them at the same time.

...it feels so bad for him to think about it like this.

Why is it that every time no matter who touches the battery, the ghost is looking for him? Why, does he have the aesthetics of the ghost?

This doesn't seem quite right!

"Yes. I got the third battery. I dared to enter the showroom based on this guess. As long as we don't move the battery hidden in the showroom, the ghosts won't be able to find us." Judging from Zhao Yijiu's tone, it was obvious that

He also knew that it was his own actions that caused Yu Xing to almost hang up without being able to pull up his pants, so he softened his tone a little.

"...So, looking for the battery is basically a trap?" Yu Xing lowered his head unconsciously, and then realized that out of fear, his left hand had been holding the camera tightly and never let go.

Nearly half an hour has passed since zero, and the camera's battery shows a dangerous red color.

Assistant Hao had evil intentions and tricked them into finding batteries, but was he actually sending coordinates to ghosts?

Looking at the battery that was about to run out, Yu Xing was silent for a moment, then took out the battery he found in the mouse hole from his pocket and replaced it with the camera.

His intuition told him that although the battery was directly related to ghosts, it would not be a good thing if the camera ran out of battery.

Zhao Yijiu also changed a battery, and then said: "Let's go, it's too dangerous here, we'd better leave as soon as possible."

He opened the door of the showroom and walked out first.

"Hey, wait a minute." Yu Xing fiddled with the camera and muttered, doubts rising in his eyes.

He took advantage of the fact that the recording time was less than five minutes, and looked through the shooting records in the camera, and found that in addition to the half-hour video he had taken, there was also a video of more than ten seconds.

Zhao Yijiu didn't hear what he said and had already walked outside. He saw that the time was enough and directly called up the video. Suddenly, Assistant Hao's fat face occupied the entire screen.

Different from the friendly and polite image, Assistant Hao in the video had a face full of fear and even blood on his face.

The screen shook, and he seemed to be running, panting and shouting at the camera: "Ghosts are hidden among the applicants! Don't trust anyone!!"

A dark figure appeared behind Assistant Hao. The shadow was exactly the same as Assistant Hao, but with a standard smile on his face, a bag on his back, and a knife in his hand.

In the video, Assistant Hao ran away in fear for a few steps before being caught up by the "thing" behind him. The knife stained with blood beads was raised high——

Swish——

Something splashed onto the lens.

The video is over.

Yu Xing watched silently and tilted his head.

That was the real Assistant Hao. The Assistant Hao who sent them the camera... was killed?

Wait, the point is what did he say?

Is the ghost hiding among the candidates?

Don't trust anyone?

For example, Zhao Yijiu?

By some strange coincidence, Yu Xing raised his head and glanced at the door.

The next moment, his heart suddenly tightened, and he saw Zhao Yijiu, who should have walked some distance away, standing gloomily at the door, looking at him coldly.

Yu Xing: Hey, don’t tell me! Just looking at it, this guy looks like a ghost! There is no sound of footsteps when he walks~

Zhao Yijiu stared into his eyes. Looking at him at such a close distance, the blood stains on his face were particularly conspicuous: "What were you looking at just now?"

Yu Xing: Hey, don’t tell me! I suddenly remembered that I just poked the female ghost in the face with a stick, right? The position is really coincidental, but the gender is not coincidental...

This gloomy young man with a different temperament than ordinary people suddenly raised the corners of his lips and revealed a smile that was as light as an illusion:

"Did you...find something?"

The atmosphere suddenly became dangerous. In the darkness, Yu Xing's bangs were a little messy, and his expression was covered by the half-bowed movement. His whole face was blurry and unreal. No one saw that he looked weird for a moment, and then "happily"

He raised the camera: "Look, look, look at this! A great discovery!"

Zhao Yijiu was stunned for a moment and looked over. Yu Xing replayed the video he had just watched. Suddenly, discordant murder once again became the background music of this dark space.

There is a very direct prompt hidden in the camera, but no one thought to read it at first.

If they had seen it earlier, the applicants would have been more careful, at least they would not have thought that the abnormal event was a test arranged by the company.

"..." After reading, Zhao Yijiao glanced at Yu Xing with difficulty: "I suddenly don't know which of the two adjectives timid and bold is more suitable for you."

"Huh?" Yu Xing looked at him doubtfully.

Zhao Yijiu paused for a moment, then sneered for a while: "Aren't you afraid that I am a ghost and will kill you directly if I find out that you have exposed yourself?"

"Then I'm definitely not afraid. We're afraid in a logical way. Think about it, if a ghost wants to kill me because he's exposed his trap, does that mean that this trap is very detrimental to him?" Yu Xing showed an incomprehensible smile, with a slightly upturned smile.

The end of his eyes instantly diluted the fear and tension lingering between his brows and eyes, and actually gave Zhao Yijiu the illusion of being careless, "If this is really the case, I should really be happy, ghosts are also afraid of things."

"The problem now is that Assistant Hao said that the ghost is in the applicant, but the ghost that killed him is consistent with his appearance. In other words, Assistant Hao who gave us the camera is both a ghost and a non-applicant, so what's the point?

What’s the position?”

"What is the significance of our test..."

Listening to Yu Xing's analysis, Zhao Yijiu glanced at him with a vague look, and some doubts arose in his heart.

He always felt that after watching the video, Yu Xing gave him a different feeling than at the beginning. He seemed to have calmed down in an instant... No, Yu Xing was always calm when he was not seeing ghosts. He should use other adjectives.

But he couldn't think of it for a moment.

correct.

It's a sense of dissonance.
