Invade the World Chapter 134

  Chapter 134 The old man in the photo

   "...what a strange idea."

  Xu Xiangyang thought.

   However, since Guo Zixuan did not commit suicide, the mentality of the person who designed the "hanging in the classroom" scene must be distorted. There is no doubt about this.

   "The remaining question is, why is Guo Zixuan the murder target he chose, right?"

  Zhu Qingyue pointed to the blackboard in front of him, and replied with a smile:

"Yes."

  This is why she wants to figure out the relationship with each other.

  Since the murderer's real purpose was them, why did he kill the boy again?

  If you want to talk about contact, Guo Zixuan and Zhu Qingyue are classmates, but they are not even friends;

  To say that there is no connection, that would be wrong. After all, Xu Xiangyang and Lin Xingjie both knew Guo Zixuan, and before that, he had spent that thrilling night with this boy.

  If it weren't for Xu Xiangyang and Zhu Qingyue's help, Guo Zixuan might have...

   "Ah, was he targeted at that time!"

  Xu Xiangyang was a little surprised.

"In this way, the teacher Yang mentioned by Xiang Yang is quite appropriate." Lin Xingjie on the side interrupted, "After all, he is Qingyue and Guo Zixuan's class teacher, and he is still possessed. But the problem is that he has now been sent in. The hospital."

  Hearing about Teacher Yang, Xu Xiangyang's heart was a little heavy.

  That is really a good person. He who has been deep in the heart of Teacher Yang can't be more clear about this.

  Even when the body is occupied by evil spirits, Teacher Yang's consciousness only has a little instinct, but he still tries to remind him to stay away from danger...

"Yes."

  Zhu Qingyue sighed slightly.

  She moved the disc of Teacher Yang to Guo Zixuan's side.

  "It is not so much a 'contact point', as it is that he and Guo Zixuan are the same, both victims."

   "Plus, the murderer deliberately set the suicide scene in the classroom of Class 5, maybe he is dissatisfied with everyone in our class."

  If she has something to say.

"Neither Xingjie nor I have contact with Guo Zixuan." Xu Xiangyang scratched the back of his head, giving up the plan to continue guessing, "Since we are called here, it means you already know who it is? Don't betray it. ."

   Lin Xingjie nodded in agreement.

  Zhu Qingyue said softly after being silent for a moment.

   "Do you still remember that the night after the possessor invaded my home after chasing us?"

   "It didn't hurt me, it didn't intend to take me away, it just lay down under my bed all night..."

  "This weird behavior can only be explained by one reason, that is, the possessor-or the controller behind him knows me, and his purpose seems to be really just to scare me."

  The murderer knew Guo Zixuan and killed him;

  The murderer knew Zhu Qingyue and sent a monster to scare her;

  The murderer may have resentment towards the entire second and fifth class.

  In this way, the reason why Teacher Yang was possessed by evil spirits is not accidental. It is also the murderer who deliberately...

  Zhu Qingyue threw the last disc magnet in her hand on the blackboard, turned her head and said to Xu Xiangyang:

   "I need to confirm one thing."

   "That haunted house, 41 Anning Street, who was its former occupant? Why was it passed on as a haunted house? This was originally something we needed to confirm in the first place."

  "How do I do it?"

  "Just tell him his name." The squad leader replied, "I think he will be willing to meet you."

  Xu Xiangyang shook his head.

   "No, I want to ask, what about after that?"

  "The other party is provoking us, but this does not mean that we must take up this challenge. For safety, we should still ventilate with the official agency. But..."

  Zhu Qingyue looked at Xu Xiangyang with frowning brows, and at Lin Xingjie, who looked unhappy, and chuckled.

   "I hate being threatened. I think you guys think the same way, right?"

  She stretched out a slender hand that was spread out flat, and slowly clenched it into a fist, which was an aggressive hint.

   "If there is a chance, we can try to pull that guy out and use our hands."

That evening.

   Accompanied by Lin Xingjie, Xu Xiangyang once again walked to the phone.

  This time, he chose the number that he had never dialed before.

  "Xu Xiangyang, I didn't expect you to call."

  The man opposite the microphone smiled, his attitude was as friendly as ever.

  "Did you change your mind and plan to join us?"

   "Sorry, Uncle Meng, I just want to study hard for the time being."

"That's for the bonus? Don't worry, you will definitely not be missing. Approval requires process and time. Of course, if you are willing to join, the efficiency may be faster... By the way, you should have received the pennant? "

  Xu Xiangyang ignored Meng Zheng's endless talk, but directly expressed his intentions.

"I wanted to confirm one thing with you. It was the afternoon when we first met. At that time, the evil spirit that ran out of the haunted house disappeared. I reported to you what I knew about it. Everything, and you promise that you will solve it and root out the root cause, right?"

   "——So, what is the situation now?"

  The man opposite fell silent

  ...It seems that it is not very smooth.

  The power of the haunted house is still active in this city, even killing another person arrogantly. Xu Xiangyang believed that they had already received the news.

   "One more thing." He asked in a deep voice, "I want to ask, who are the residents in that house?"

  "This is a confidential matter..."

  "This is something that is closely related to us!"

  Xu Xiangyang's voice became very high in an instant, and he also interrupted the opponent's conversation.

  Being so rude when talking to the elderly, he did this kind of thing for the first time, but Xu Xiangyang still followed the squad leader's instructions to do it, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

   "My classmates and friends around me have been attacked from that haunted house more than once! Isn't this something that can be covered by the phrase 'secrecy'?"

  His words were a bit jerky at first, but the more they spoke, the smoother they became. Deep in his heart, there was a faint anger. In the face of this anger, the personalities of good students can be temporarily put aside.

  The guy lurking in the haunted house abused supernatural power to kill more than one person, and also used the lives of others to show their presence...

  Whether it is due to the moral sense of ordinary people, or because the people around you may encounter a sense of crisis of threats, this person's behavior is unforgivable.

  And Xu Xiangyang and they left the haunted house behind for a long time because the man on the other side of the phone had promised him.

  But the other party failed to do it.

   Xu Xiangyang sighed lightly, and finally asked the most important question:

  "...Uncle Meng, please tell me, among the holders of the house, is there one of our classmates, a boy named'Song Yao'?"

  Meng Zheng did not answer directly, but sighed softly, saying:

   "Xu Xiangyang, let's meet tomorrow."

  After hearing these words, Xu Xiangyang relieved his heart and made an "OK" gesture to the long-haired girl beside him.

  You're done.

"okay, I get it."

  He replied in as calm a tone as possible.

  The next day, Xu Xiangyang came to the agreed place.

  This is a coffee shop with a sign of "Shangdao Coffee" hanging on the house. This is the most common coffee shop on the streets of this city.

  Western restaurants these days generally give people a sense of being tall, and their consumption levels are not affordable for ordinary citizens.

  Compared with other restaurants that can be seen everywhere, the display in the house is permeated with an elegant atmosphere, not only has an imitation fireplace, but the store even arranged a piano.

  Xu Xiangyang saw in the corner seat, a young man in a trench coat smiled and waved to him. He walked over and sat down in front of him somewhat restrained.

   "Come on, drink, I'll treat you."

"……good."

  Xu Xiangyang just picked up the steaming cup in front of him, looked at the dark black liquid with a bitter fragrance inside, suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked quickly.

  "Did you add that...er, milk and sugar?"

   "Your kid is quite clever." Meng Zheng laughed, "Have you drank it before?"

   "No, but I have heard of it."

   "Drink without worry." The man held up the cup, shrugged and replied, "I am not used to drinking sour and bitter things."

  Xu Xiangyang relaxed slightly, and took a tentative sip.

  It was the first time he drank coffee. Although he still felt a strange smell similar to Chinese medicine, the overall feeling was unexpectedly not bad.

  "Let's answer your previous question on the phone first."

  Meng Zheng put down the cup, raised Erlang's legs, crossed his hands on his knees, and responded straightforwardly.

   "Xu Xiangyang, you are right. There is information about your classmate, which we have already obtained."

"That room...I don't know if you have been there again, but that place has indeed been monitored. Since then, the boy named Song Yao has never appeared in front of others. So we think that his The suspicion is very big, even if he is not said to be the initiator of this series of incidents, it must have a lot to do with him."

  Xu Xiangyang fell silent and stroked the wall of the ceramic coffee cup.

  Zhu Qingyue's guess, seems to have been confirmed by the official staff.

  Xu Xiangyang once heard this name from Wang Yue.

Song Yao used to be a member of the study group. He was the only person in class 5 who had poor grades and was willing to sign up for the group. Therefore, the monitor took good care of him. As a result, it is said that this caused Guo Zixuan's jealousy and led him to be excluded. Go out, in the end, you won't even go to school...

   Although it may not be true gossip, judging from the fact that Guo Zixuan was killed and Song Yao was originally a member of Class 5, the motivation can still be matched.

  However, his inner doubts did not disappear.

   "I heard from the people in that class that Song Yao only dropped out of school from the beginning of this semester."

  Xu Xiangyang asked questions cautiously.

   "However, the rumors of the haunted house seem to have been in the nearby area for some time. It is not clear when it started, but I want to come before this year..."

  After the first adventure of escaping the haunted house, he asked for news from his neighbor. And Lin Xingjie also mentioned that according to the words of Wang Nana, who was eaten by wild dogs, this abandoned house has long been notorious among nearby residents. It is said that there is still such a terrible "everyone who enters will die". The rumored haunted house--

"That's fake."

  Meng Zheng flatly denied what he said.

"Ok?"

  Xu Xiangyang raised his head in surprise.

"This is what we do, think about it, where there are rumors of spirituality circulating among the people, don't we send people to check it?" Meng Zheng laughed, "As the saying goes,'I would rather believe it if it is not trusted. "It's nothing," or "I would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let go of one"... Well, in short, things related to the people's life safety and social harmony and stability cannot tolerate carelessness."

"I only transferred to this city this year. I have already looked through the previous files. This house has indeed been dead before, but there is no'haunted house phenomenon', and there are no traces of evil activities, so early Was ruled out."

  "...In other words, did the supernatural phenomenon occur in that house, or was it in the last year?"

  Xu Xiangyang understood a little bit.

   "Yes, if there was no such thing in the hospital, we probably hadn't noticed that this fake haunted house has become a real haunted house."

Seeing the young man in front of him suddenly raised his head, Meng Zheng raised his coffee cup again and nodded to him.

   "Don't worry, it's okay. We have investigated the fate of those people, and it has nothing to do with you. Since you are possessed by evil spirits, the ending is already doomed. It's not bad to become a vegetable."

  Xu Xiangyang frowned, and after a while, he said slowly.

   "It really was Song Yao's problem? But why did he choose to live in that kind of place..."

  Moreover, he himself had the experience of breaking into that haunted house.

  It's weird. Whether it's seen from the outside or inside the house, the place looks abandoned for a long time, and it doesn't seem to be inhabited at all.

   "The report from our personnel office. Actually, Song Yao lived there before."

  Meng Zheng seemed to really not intend to hide from him this time, so the new intelligence was thrown out casually.

   "It was originally the place where their family of three lived, but his parents died. Later, Song Yao was adopted by other relatives. He didn't come back again until high school."

   "Is it impossible..."

  Xu Xiangyang's eyes widened.

"Yes."

  Meng Zheng nods slightly.

   "The rumors of a 'bad house' in that house are probably related to his deceased parents."

   "Then, then he... still come back to live? Is he alone?"

   "We don't know the specific reason, it's people's private affair."

  Meng Zheng took a photo out of his pocket.

   "Of course, it is impossible for him to live alone as a minor. According to the materials provided to us by your school, the guardian who accompanied him to the school to report is his grandfather, Song Deshou."

  While talking, he gently took the photo in front of him.

  Following Meng Zheng's movements, Xu Xiangyang's heart seemed to fall.

  In the photo, there is an old man sitting in a chair.

  The face covered with the traces of time and frost is easy to give people a serious impression; but in the photo, he has a kind smile.

  He is wearing a tunic suit, his clothes are straight and his hair is slightly white. To Xu Xiangyang, this face is so familiar.

  The early morning when he first saw each other, it symbolized the beginning of a major turning point in his life. Even if you want to forget it...
