Chapter 5: A Beautiful Girl Ruolan (3): There is a Dead Man in the Paper Crowd
I am actually a very courageous person. In order to make the horror of my novel real, I once visited the cemetery late at night, sneaked into the morgue, and even went to the funeral parlor to find inspiration.
But at this moment, I was trembling all over and my limbs were cold. The frightening scene in Cheng Kee Theater made my whole body collapse, especially the person who spoke to me at the end, he had a face that belonged to the devil. His facial features seemed to have been pinched and rubbed by someone, and when he smiled ferociously, it was simply terrifying to the extreme.
My heart didn't leave my throat until Shen Zhen arrived.
"Isn't it? What scared Teacher Lu like this?" Shen Zhen looked at me and couldn't help but feel happy.
Shen Zhen is a very good friend of mine. He studied psychology abroad in college. He originally had a good opportunity to stay and work abroad, but his patriotic heart made him resolutely return to the embrace of the motherland. Unfortunately, his The profession is not particularly relevant in the city. From the initial psychological clinic, it gradually changed to emotional counseling and even intermediary services.
"You're still laughing, I'm really scared." When I called Shen Zhen, I told him what happened. This aroused his interest and insisted that I wait for him here.
"Okay, okay, where do ghosts come from in this world? It's simply nonsense. You are a college graduate after all, and a person who has been influenced by scientific knowledge, how can you say such ridiculous things like ghosts?" Shen He looked at me and said.
"I, I was really scared at that time, maybe it was the environment at that time." Shen Zhen's words slowly calmed down my emotions. Thinking about it carefully, maybe I was really affected by the environment at that time. It was dark all around, and the surroundings were dark. It was densely packed with paper figures, and then suddenly a person came out from behind, which would probably make anyone scared.
"But since we are here, let's go in and take a look. It will help you answer your doubts." Shen Zhen said, ignoring whether I agreed or not, and walked straight ahead.
I followed Shen Zhen and walked into Chengji Theater again.
The theater was still as silent as death, without any sound.
We seemed to have entered another world.
There was a person standing on the stage, wearing a colorful costume, motionless.
Is that Wu Ruolan? I don't know.
The audience was just like when I came here. There were densely packed paper figures sitting there. They were staring at the front and leaning straight on their seats.
Shen Zhen picked up the phone, turned on the flashlight, and then looked at it from behind. These paper figures were indeed very strange. Each one was wearing a different costume. These costumes were not real clothes, but paintings with different styles. They are different, and the patterns are not similar. Some of them are even like graffiti, and the paintings are all kinds of weird.
I walked towards the front of the stage, and Wu Ruolan stood there as still as a sculpture. I felt strange in my heart, and when I stood in front of the Andong stage, I realized that the person on the stage was not Wu Ruolan at all, but a paper The man was just wearing the same costume as Wu Ruolan before, with his head half lowered, so he couldn't be noticed without looking carefully in front of him.
"I didn't find anything special, just some paper figures, which looked a bit impactful." Shen Zhen walked along the entire hall of the theater and finally came to me.
"A place like this in the middle of the night is really scary." I said with lingering fear as I looked at the theater in front of me.
At this time, there was a sudden sound of rapid footsteps outside, and then several people walked in, all holding flashlights in their hands. Shen Zhen and I took a closer look and saw that the person who came was actually a police officer.
"Who are you?" A policeman led by him came over immediately and looked at us warily.
"What's going on?" Shen Zhen looked at them and asked.
"We received reports from the masses that someone was carrying out illegal activities here," the policeman said.
"Are you kidding me? Illegal activities are being carried out here. Look at what these people can do in the dark." Shen Zhen said, dumbfounded.
The policemen ignored us and just looked around with flashlights. Soon a policeman suddenly shouted loudly, "Brother Liang, there is a dead person here."
"Dead person? Is it a dead person or a paper man?" Shen Zhen and I's expressions suddenly changed, and then we followed the policeman and walked over quickly.
Indeed, there is a dead person there. It is a man. He is wearing the same clothes as the paper man next to him, and he is sitting quietly. If you don't look carefully, you can't tell it at all.
"How do you explain?" The policeman named Brother Liang looked at Shen Zhen and me.
"Officer Liang, you don't think this dead person has something to do with us, do you? We just arrived here, it was so dark, we didn't even understand what was going on, and then you rushed in. Now at least you have to identify the dead person Identity, cause of death, and then combined with our situation, can we make a conclusion?" Shen Zhen is indeed a psychologist, and the policeman was a little confused in just a few words.
"How come it's such a coincidence? We received the report, and then you were here? How about this? You come back to the station with us and give a confession. Then if it turns out that it really has nothing to do with this dead man, we won't embarrass you." Officer Liang thought for a while and said.
"Of course, we are happy to cooperate with the police." Shen Zhen said with a smile.
It turned out that the dead man had nothing to do with us, because the forensic doctor confirmed that he had been dead for more than ten days. We simply went through the formalities and could leave.
It was already past one o'clock in the morning when I came out of the police station. Shen Zhen said that if it was too late, I could sleep at his place, but I had other things on my mind, so I separated from him and went directly back to Gulou.
When I returned to the room, I immediately put on my headphones, turned on the frequency, and listened to what was going on in Wu Ruolan's room. Maybe it was too late, because there was no sound in Wu Ruolan's room. I slowly adjusted the frequency, but there was only a rustling sound inside.
Suddenly, a chuckle came from the earphones. It was short but very clear.
I stopped moving for a moment and was stunned.
"Laundry and wine," the woman's voice sounded again.
My head suddenly exploded. This, this is Wu Ruolan's voice. Listen carefully to what she said. It should be that you are next...
