Because the lights are on, I can see clearly even if the door is closed. I believe that the customers are conscious, because no one will see that the door is closed and still crawl in. I paid attention to the ceiling again.
Except for some hanging water pipe-like things, which should be connected to the fire alarm. But other than that, I didn't find any camera equipment in this area.
For fear of omissions, I asked Teacher Yang, are there no surveillance cameras in this area? Teacher Yang said that originally there were cameras that could capture this area, but after the fire doors were closed, they were blocked, so you can do it safely and boldly.
I asked him again, is it possible that you could access the surveillance video of the first time you encountered a ghost in this place? Teacher Yang said, in fact, they had already seen that video before we came here.
However, due to the angle, we only captured the scene of the staff member looking for the ghost, but failed to capture the ghost. After speaking, Teacher Yang pointed to a shelf a few meters behind me and said, from the screen
Look, the ghost should have appeared behind the shelf at that time, but it didn't appear on the screen. It was blocked by the shelf.
I was a little disappointed, because then my possibility of finding evidence was reduced. The enclosed area was about one hundred square meters. In order not to miss any point, I told Hu Zongren,
If I measure such a large area by myself, it will take a lot of time. Can you come with me? Hu Zongren nodded and said yes, so we stood at two opposite corners and started measuring in opposite directions, and
Gradually narrowing the scope, in this way, the time was saved at least half. So for nearly an hour, in addition to the sound of the refrigerator roaring from time to time, we also heard the fish in the aquatic area occasionally tumbling.
voice. When Hu Zongren and I met, neither of our faces seemed very good-looking.
Because in this half of the area I checked, I found dense traces of ghosts, not only under the shelves, but even on many vegetables. And the vegetables here were just sold this morning, which means
Yes, at least after the goods were put out this morning, there were ghosts here. What surprised me the most was that under a pile of cabbage shelves, I found a few carrots scattered on the ground.
The carrots were damaged to varying degrees, because almost the tops had fallen off. The fallen sections were fresh and still had moisture, which meant that what happened today, and I also found a pile of carrot residue on the ground.
.
This almost directly ruled out the possibility that it was a mouse, because even if a mouse secretly eats a carrot, it will not spit it out on the ground, but will swallow it in its stomach. I also looked at the cross-section above carefully.
, are slightly smaller than ordinary people's tooth marks, but it can be clearly distinguished that they are human teeth marks. So when the ghost started chewing carrots, he was actually just repeating such an eating action and did not really do anything.
It goes into the stomach, and the scraps on the ground are the best proof. Moreover, each carrot has a stronger spiritual reaction than the surroundings.
I counted and found that there were a dozen shelves in total. Under each shelf, there was basically a slightly stronger spirit than the surroundings. This means that there are ghosts who have stayed here longer than outside. This is just a very simple question.
It's just a calculation problem. Years of experience are enough for me to make this judgment. What puzzles me is that in addition to the shelf described by Teacher Yang at the beginning, ghosts can also be found in almost every corner of the raw meat area and aquatic product area.
Apart from the water, that's the only location I can determine without checking. The situation Hu Zongren checked is similar to mine. We can't climb up to the place on the ceiling, but if we can climb up, I believe
We can also find a lot up there. Generally speaking, the situation in this area is more serious than that of Teacher Yang’s office. It is simply a place where ghosts have a carnival. Maybe it’s a bit exaggerated, but seven or eight ghosts,
There's always some here.
I discussed with Hu Zongren for a while, and I told him that in the area I inspected, in addition to the places just mentioned, I also found spiritual movement near the drainage ditch, which was much stronger than the surrounding areas.
, so if possible, we have to consider that this drainage ditch is probably a passage for ghosts to enter and exit. Hu Zongren nodded, and then told me, I found some at the door over there, and the flames were flying around, looking very...
It looks exciting, and it can’t be extinguished even if you blow it. That place should be very strong. Later, you can use the compass alone to look there again. Compare it with what you see, and we can have a rough start. I asked
Hu Zongren, where is the door? Hu Zongren turned and pointed to the wall opposite the fire door, a place with many cardboard boxes piled around, and said, that's right there, there is a button, it should be an elevator. At this time, Teacher Yang answered
To put it bluntly, yes, that's the elevator where we load and unload the goods. This is the fresh food area, and everything is brought up directly from the warehouse on the ground floor by this elevator.
I took the compass and walked to the elevator door. It was an old-fashioned green-skinned elevator with foldable doors. Such elevators are very rare nowadays. I squatted down and checked around the elevator to rule out electromechanical damage.
Apart from the interference of the product, the reaction here turned out to be the strongest I have noticed in this range so far. This is undoubtedly a very important discovery for me, at least it rules out my previous belief that the ghost came from the drain.
Possibility of entry.
But a new problem appeared again. If this place was haunted for a long time, Teacher Yang and the others would not be the first ones to discover it. Someone must have noticed it long before that staff member. So I quickly asked Teacher Yang,
How long has this supermarket been open here? Because I saw that the surrounding walls were no longer newly renovated, and it looked like it had been at least a few years. Sure enough, Teacher Yang answered me that this place has been open for nearly
It has been 5 years, and I am considered one of the first employees. I started working here right after graduating from university. I asked him again, before this incident, had anything strange happened in the supermarket? Teacher Yang thought about it carefully.
After thinking about it, that's really not the case. It has always been calm and there has been no abnormality at all.
That shouldn't be the case. If ghosts suddenly burst out in a certain period of time in the same place, there must be an inducement, or they were given bad drugs by their colleagues. Relatively speaking, the former is more likely.
, so I told Hu Zongren my guess and told him that if we want to figure out what happened, we must find the cause of this incident.
Teacher Yang came over and said, why do you want to find some reason? Can't you just do it to exorcise ghosts? This is how it is done on TV. I glanced at him, but actually I was not blaming him. I told Yang
Teacher, those on TV can indeed do this, but that has never been our style of doing things. We are not so boring that we have to get to the bottom of everything, but solving the problem from the root is once and for all, otherwise it will always be
Treating the symptoms but not the root cause, if you deal with this batch, you will still have a headache when the next batch appears.
After I finished speaking, I pointed to the other side of the wall. There was a small closed door in the fresh food area. I asked Teacher Yang, what was behind that door? Teacher Yang looked at it and said, there is a cold room for pork, fish and so on.
Frozen food is stored wherever it is, and the crushed ice on our shelves is also made from it. I asked Teacher Yang if he could open it and let us go in and take a look. Teacher Yang said that there was nothing we could do about it.
, he didn’t have the key to that door, but we could ask someone to help open the door if we needed it. I walked to the door again, lowered my body and checked the compass at the crack of the door. Air conditioning came out of it, and the compass
The reaction on the door is not strong, and is similar to the reaction in the environment. This means that the ghost here has not entered. If it had entered, at least I should be able to find a stronger reaction in the crack of the door than in the surroundings. So.
I told Teacher Yang, no need, this place has also been excluded.
In this way, apart from the carrots under the shelves and the inexplicable appearance, the elevator is the most likely to be entered and exited by ghosts in this area. Ghosts can actually take the elevator, but there is no reason to explain it.
They came up by themselves in the elevator, because some ghosts will follow the path they took during their lifetime, and things like elevators have not been used for too many years, so it can be preliminarily judged that the death time of these ghosts will not be very long, at least
It was after the large-scale use of elevators began in China.
I went back to the middle of the house, picked up a green onion, dipped some water into the terrain and roughly drew it on the ground. There was dirt on the green onion, so I used it as a pen. The elevator leads to the warehouse on the first floor.
Yes, and the entrance to the first floor minus one can be seen directly from the window of Teacher Yang's office. There is a brazier between the first floor and the first floor minus one on the stairs outside the office, which means that if you go down the stairs, you can also reach the first floor minus one.
Floor, all the clues currently available overlap to the first floor below. Do I have to go to the warehouse on the first floor to check again? Isn’t there something else in common between them?
As I was drawing, I seemed to suddenly think of something. I asked Teacher Yang to come to me. I pointed to the mark on the ground made by dipping soil in water and asked him, "Did you see the black mark on the mobile phone and table in the office that day?"
Is the mark this color? Teacher Yang frowned and said, it needs to be a little darker. I stretched out my hand and wiped it on the ground to let him smell it. Is it this kind of smell? Because it was stained with the smell of onions, he said he couldn't smell it.
But it's a lot fishier.
At this time, Hu Zongren opened the net on the drainage ditch, reached out and picked up some black mud with his fingers, which he didn't know if it was silt. He smelled it, showed an ugly expression, and then asked Teacher Yang, will you come again?
Look, is it this color? Is it this smell?
Teacher Yang went over and smelled it, and said categorically that this is what it smells like!
