Wear a Thriller To Protect the Boss - Chapter 71
According to the buff blessed by the system, Huo Yinting easily retrieved the internal surveillance videos of three libraries in X City, and then she and Yue Ye watched it for more than three hours.
Huo Yinting suddenly said in a deep voice when Yue Ye was about to see blindly and secretly took off his glasses to drip the eye drops.
“found it.”
Yue Ye crooked his hand and all the eye drops were dripped on his face: “Uh…what did you find?”
“I found the two deceased from the previous University of Finance and Economics. They did go in and out of the Chengnan Library late at night.”
She has an unforgettable memory. When she looked at the files of the deceased, she remembered all the pictures of the deceased.
According to her calculations, there were a total of six deaths in the three universities, and each death was seven days apart. The two of the University of Finance and Economics died strangely on the second night after entering the library, and it is estimated that the other people were the same.
“Let’s go to Chengnan Library to find clues.”
Yue Ye raised his doubts earnestly: “But the Chengnan Library is only open until 6 o’clock in the evening, and it is closed late at night.”
“Look at the surveillance system. Did the two college students enter normally?” Huo Yinting was helpless, “The library door opens automatically. Is this okay?”
“Um…” Yue Ye sighed, “Young people nowadays are too courageous. If I were to go to such a place late at night, I wouldn’t dare.”
“…I can see it.”
“The problem is, it’s already past 10 o’clock in the evening, how are we going to enter the library? The ghost book didn’t give us instructions, and the library door shouldn’t be opened automatically for both of us.”
Huo Yinting got up and took his coat, calmly and calmly: “I remember that Chengnan Library is a very old library, the equipment is relatively backward, the door locks are also old, it belongs to the kind that can be opened with a wire.”
Yue Ye realized afterwards that she realized the profound meaning of her words: “…Can you pry the lock?”
“This is weird?”
“But you clearly said that you are my companion.”
“I will pick the lock, but I am not a thief. This will not prevent me from walking with you.”
“Oh…”
Huo Yinting smoothly pushed a hand on his shoulder: “Take your ghost hunting weapon, don’t linger, go.”
Yue Ye looked around the room, and finally picked up a small silver pistol from the corner behind the sofa.
Said to be a pistol, it is actually only half the size of a pistol in the traditional sense.
“This is a weapon handed down from our family’s ancestors.” He explained to her, “It’s called Thunder in the Palm. It can’t kill ordinary people, but it can kill ghosts.”
“Have you used it?”
“I haven’t used it yet. X City has been in Taiping for many years. This is my first time…” He thought for a while and added slowly, “Catch the ducks to the shelves.”
“…”
Okay, this analogy is very appropriate, Mr. Yue is very self-aware.
At twelve o’clock in the evening, Yue Ye drove Huo Yinting to the Chengnan Library, which has a relatively remote terrain.
The moonlight is dim and the open area is full of overcast winds. It doesn’t look like a place with good feng shui.
The two came to the gate of the library, each put on a mask and a hood to cover their faces, then Huo Yinting took out a wire from his pocket, and it took only 30 seconds to open the lock.
“This lock is old enough.”
“No one wants to renovate here.” Yue Ye said, “After all, it is an old building, and the book category is not complete. There are not many people who can borrow books in a year.”
She opened the door and motioned for him to go in: “Keep your steps lighter.”
“Well, Miss Huo is really thoughtful.”
“…You don’t have to be awkward, what’s the point of awkward praise?”
Yue Ye replied sincerely: “This is the first time you and I have cooperated. We must always increase exchanges, otherwise it will be difficult to develop a tacit understanding between our partners.”
She glanced at him and turned her head silently.
Strange brain circuit.
With the help of the faint light of the mobile phone, the two sneaked into the library and walked along the rows of bookshelves, groping for the traces of “Infinite Ghost Book”.
Huo Yinting carefully identified those books whose covers were shabby and yellowed, feeling that the bookkeeping was done badly. The next second, he heard whispers from a distance.
“Is it this book?”
“Isn’t this written, Wu Jian… It’s a traditional Chinese character, don’t you know it?”
“Then what’s next? What are we doing?”
“Stupid, didn’t you mean to press a fingerprint on this?”
She shuddered in her heart, and then walked quickly in that direction, and used her mobile phone to illuminate each other: “You guys, wait a minute.”
There were four people standing next to the bookshelf, two men and two women. They were all startled by the light at first, and they backed away collectively.
The guy in black at the front was quite brave. He held his head open and boldly asked: “Who are you? In the middle of the night you…what are you doing in the library!”
Huo Yinting’s face was particularly pale and deserted against the faint light. She was expressionless as if trying to chase her life.
“Everyone comes to the library in the middle of the night, what’s the difference?”
“…”
Yue Ye probed from behind Huo Yinting and pointed carefully at the book in his opponent’s hand: “This little brother, if you have something to say, put the book down first.”
The black-clothed boy was wary for an instant: “Why? Do you also know this book?”
“Ah… If I didn’t admit my mistake, is it “Internal Ghost Book”?”
A girl with dyed pink hair said in a strange way: “It says’Wu Jian’ on it, it’s not a ghost book.”
“It’s not a ghost book, then what book is it?”
“Treasure book for fulfilling wishes.”
“…”
Huo Yinting raised her eyebrows slightly, and she vaguely felt that the IQs of these four people didn’t seem to be too high.
She said: “Who told you the news? How did you find this?”
The pink-haired girl thought without hesitation: “We are a member of the Normal University Detective Agency. Not long ago, we received a strange bronzing card with the words “Come here for treasure hunting”, saying that there are…”
“Stop talking.” The short-haired girl next to her gave her a push, reminding her displeasedly, “Don’t just chat with outsiders, okay?”
“Oh.” Fenmao chose to be silent.
Huo Yinting and Yue Ye looked at each other, although this look didn’t have any profound meaning, after all, Yue Ye wasn’t too clever, he seemed very dazed, and it was her decision.
She considered it for a moment and tried to use euphemisms to persuade those people to hand in “The Infinite Ghost Book” first.
“A few friends, listen to me, the so-called bronzing card is likely to be a scam, because as far as I know, this book is an ominous book, and the people who have it on it are likely to be life-threatening-three recent college students in x city You have all heard of the deaths, right? Their deaths are all related to this book.”
The black-clothed boy subconsciously clenched the book in his hand, wondering: “How do you know? Who are you two?”
Yue Ye answered honestly: “It’s a ghost hunter.”
“…”
“This book is actually a ghost book.”
“…”
“If you make a deal with the ghost book, you might also die.”
It’s a big truth, and it’s also a very unpopular big truth. Mr. Yue’s person is indeed a bit naive.
Sure enough, the boy in black was very upset: “For some reason, the police have classified the three previous incidents as vicious homicides. What the **** are you, who are you cursing?”
Huo Yinting asked thoughtfully: “You don’t believe in ghosts, but you still believe in the nonsense about treasure hunting?”
“…We don’t really want to hunt for treasure, but the detective agency often organizes activities, which is considered expedition.”
Very good, very ok. It should be noted that there are so many supernatural horror films at home and abroad.
“Explore or something, just take a form, don’t play with fire.” She kindly reminded, “Especially, I heard you just press your fingerprints on the book, and I suggest you don’t press it.”
Yue Ye also nodded and said, “Yes, don’t press it. This is a contract. I’m afraid that if you press the fingerprint, bad things will happen.”
The black-clothed boy hesitated for a moment, and seemed to stop talking.
At this moment, I had never had a chance to interject, and the boy in a checkered shirt standing at the back suddenly murmured in embarrassment.
“But the four of us have already pressed it just now.”
The pink-haired girl nodded: “I still use my lipstick.”
“…”
Huo Yinting was speechless, and suddenly felt a strange green light shining from the front, she instinctively retreated, raising her hand to protect Yue Ye.
“what happened?”
When the green light dissipated and her sight dimmed again, she used her mobile phone to shine again and found that the four people were no longer there.
Yue Ye looked around and was also very surprised: “The one who was here just now, did it run away? But I didn’t hear anything.”
“It didn’t run away, but it disappeared.”
“…what?”
Huo Yinting stepped forward and saw the ghost book with yellowed pages, lying quietly on the ground, with the word “Wu Jian” written in traditional Chinese on the cover.
In addition, there is a lipstick left.
This should be the pink lipstick just now.
She made a reasonable guess: “Did they get sucked into the ghost book?”
Yue Ye sighed, and replied slowly, “Nine to all, right.”
Huo Yinting opened the book and saw that there was a parchment-like paper inside. Every page was blank and there was no written record. Only on the last page, four bright red handprints with different fingerprints were pressed—this is about the same as the one just now. Traces left by four college students.
On the last page, you can faintly see the strange charm marks, and the marks are also faded, half dark and half light, and even continue to lighten.
“What mark is this, do you understand?”
“I don’t quite understand.” Yue Ye meditated, “but I can probably guess it. It’s almost the seal of the ghost book. When the seal disappears completely, the fierce ghost inside should…”
It’s time to be released.
Obviously, if these four people die, the seal will disappear completely.
The most urgent task at the moment is to follow up and take a look. If you can save people, save people, lest more fierce ghosts appear, and the situation becomes more and more difficult to clean up.
Huo Yinting quickly opened the lipstick and applied it on his index finger, and pressed his fingerprint on the last page.
“You wait here first.” She said, “I’ll go in and inquire about the situation. If you can’t cope with it, you can handle it outside…what are you doing?”
Yue Ye put down the lipstick in his hand, his face was innocent.
“I thought you meant to go in together.”
“…”
In less than four or five seconds, he was already in the same place, pressing his fingerprints.
Huo Yinting supported his forehead with grief and indignation.
Isn’t this man a slow person? Why is the action faster than anyone else when he can’t be the most impatient?
Ask her for her own life.
