    Chapter 23

    The inside of the morgue was pitch black, and he stretched out his hand to see five fingers.

    The icy air was filled with the pungent smell of formalin, and you could vaguely smell the rotten smell of corpses.

    The bare feet rubbed against the ground, moving slowly and sluggishly in the darkness.

    "Jingle", "Jingle".

    Strange bells rang from all directions, echoing in the empty morgue.

    In the corner of the third morgue, Qi Shen curled up on the ground and shivered.

    He buried his head deep in his knees and held it tightly in his hands, as if he was stunned, and there was always a vague scream in his throat.

    "Jingle", "Jingle"—

    The bell rang close.

    Qi Shen stared in horror, staring at the darkness before the bottom, and he had already started to build a picture in his mind.

    The pale corpse swayed as it approached him step by step, the bell on the ankle made a sound as it walked, and the pair of murky and dead gray beads stared at him, and then slowly stretched out a stiff and cold hand—

    "Ah ah ah ah ah"

    Qi Shen let out a sharp and intermittent scream, and retreated back in horror.

    "Jingle, jingle."

    The sound approached quickly.

    It's so close, it's almost like it's ringing in my ears.

    In the next second, the palm of his hand came from the depths of the darkness without warning, and suddenly covered Qi Shen's mouth, blocking his remaining screams back into his throat, changing into a meaningless "woo woo" sound.

    "Shh, be quiet!"

    The young man deliberately lowered his voice and sounded in his ear: "Me."

    However, Qi Shen still seemed to be trapped in a nightmare, like a dehydrated fish, struggling and trembling frantically, the strength of a person bursting out in despair was too great, Wen Jianyan almost held him, and banged the back of the head against the metal. The refrigerator made strange noises in the darkness.

    If it goes on like this, it will definitely attract the attention of the corpses, and his previous efforts will be in vain.

    "Don't mess around." To speak quickly, his voice calm: "I'll come to your sister too."

    "!!!"

    Qi Shen suddenly stopped struggling.

    He was still trembling in horror, but his expression gradually became clearer, as if he had finally recovered.

    Qi Shen gasped for breath, turning the beads with difficulty, trying to look at the man covering his mouth.

    see everything.

    , In the dead silence, I could vaguely hear the sound of breathing except myself. Although it was a little short, it was controlled evenly and steadily.

    Covering his nose and mouth, his hands were warm, his human body was close to him, his chest rose and fell with his breathing, and his skin was fiery and warm, and his body was passing from the darkness.

    Qi Shen finally calmed down.

    He clung to letting go, as if clenching the last straw.

    "..."

    The life-saving straw face twisted slightly in the darkness.

    hiss.

    This hand is really strong, and it will definitely be green when he is pinched.

    Wen Jianyan's journey is very small.

    As an old acquaintance who has been targeted by this garbage live broadcast several times, he already had a vague hunch about this situation before getting on the elevator.

    Therefore, in order to prevent the previous chase from happening again, Wen Jianyan has been memorizing the layout and route since entering the morgue.

    Although the darkness also brought him a small obstacle, after groping in the darkness for a while, it would be a problem.

    Wen Jianyan listened to the sound of the bell carefully, made a sound in the other two morgues, led the dead bodies blocked in the corridor away, and then left quickly, avoiding the sound of the bell, while rushing towards the third morgue. Come.

    After holding down Qi Shen, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

    Fortunately, finally caught up.

    The ten-minute search should be almost over. Wen Jianyan stared at the front darkness, every nerve in her body was subconsciously tense, and she silently counted down the countdown.

    Waiting in the dark was always tormenting, and after knowing how long it had passed, a familiar voice sounded again:

    【Ding! Congratulations on the broadcast of the scene: hide and seek! 】

    【Reward Points: 5000】

    The sound fell, and the distant jingling bells disappeared in an instant, as if it had never appeared before.

    Wen Jianyan suddenly felt amnesty, exhaled slowly, and relaxed a little bit.

    He let go, still trembling deeply, took out his phone from his pocket, turned on the screen, and ended the recording loop.

    When the stop button was pressed, there was only a boundless silence in the darkness.

    Compared with just now, the dead silence seemed extremely reassuring.

    In the distance, the sound of the refrigerator door being pushed open sounded, and Su Ban nervously and hesitantly sounded from inside the morgue: "Hey...you, are you still alive?"

    Wen Jianyan wiped her face and said in her voice, "I'm still alive."

    Su's voice was remarkably relaxed: "That's great... It scared me to death just now."

    He was alone in the refrigerator, listening nervously to the noise outside.

    Suddenly, the thin light that penetrated through the crevice of the cabinet suddenly disappeared, leaving only a piece of darkness, and then, things gradually became weird.

    The sound of the bells became more and more complex, and the sound of deliberately slow and fast running could be vaguely heard, and all kinds of strange noises sounded from the same direction from time to time, making Su jumped and huddled in the refrigerator Dare to move.

    While worrying about what they did wrong, he held back his worries and chatted with himself to keep his life safe. He didn't let it go until the final quest sounded.

    "Why did the lights go out?"

    Wen Jianyan slumped on the ground, and as the adrenaline disappeared, the side effects of the thrilling curtain just now finally took effect.

    His hands and feet are weak now, almost getting up, and he can only command Su with a weak voice:

    "I'm off, you... walk towards the elevator, about five steps to the right of the elevator door, and you can 'touch' the electric switch."

    Across the wall and the corridor, Wen Jianyan heard Su groping forward in the dark, and there were also a few banging sounds of people hitting the door of the open refrigerator, and breathing cold. gas sound.

    Three minutes later, there was a "pop" sound in the distance.

    The switch was closed.

    The overhead light pipe made a sizzling sound, and then turned on at the same time.

    The sudden light made Wen Jianyan sway forward, squinting his eyes subconsciously, and after a while, he finally got used to the light.

    Except for opening the door of the refrigerator, the narrow mortuary has been restored to its original state.

    In the third morgue, the winged corpse also obediently lay back on the iron bed, except that it was covered with a white cloth and did not recover, the rest was almost the same as before.

    Soon, Su rushed in from the corridor: "Are you okay?"

    Wen Jianyan's face was white, she stood up staggeringly, and waved her hand at him, indicating that she was fine—

    Then he rushed to the edge of the corner, leaning against the wall and retching.

    Su: "..."

    No matter how you look at it, it looks fine.

    He stepped forward, glanced over and was still sitting in the corner, and he basically understood what was going on. It is estimated that Wen Jianyan knew what he had thought of just now, so he rushed out of the hiding place. Saved the npc.

    Su patted Wen Jianyan's back, and the young man's back was arched, trembling slightly from retching, and he could almost feel the bulge and thin bones under his palm.

    After a few seconds, Wen Jianyan straightened up in prostration.

    His face was pale, and he saw that he had the guts to rush out of his hiding place.

    Su Mian stared at the former youth in confusion.

    Really... also know that this guy is really good and good.

    To put it alright, every time encounter a ghost, run faster than anyone else, and spit harder than anyone else.

    Well, when he can do things, just thinking about Su in his mind makes him feel terrified.

    Wen Jianyan took a deep breath and wiped the corners of her lips, except that her face was a little paler than before, it looked the same as before.

    He took two steps towards Qi Shen, who was still slumped on the ground. Before he could say anything, Yu Guang was attracted by the side—

    Wen Jianyan turned her head to look at the iron bed, and subconsciously took a deep breath.

    The corpse came back, and the white cloth on his body was also lifted, revealing his full face clearly.

    This man's corpse.

    There was a large wound on his neck, which just cut off the artery, and the white neck bone was faintly visible through the white outer skin.

    This shocking throat injury is not noticeable for the real reason.

    The reason why he attracted Wen Jianyan's attention was because his face——

    On the corpse's pale face, the thin black lines looked like twisted worms, passing through the bruised, bruised skin and lips, and sewed together his upper and lower lids and mouth.

    According to the color of the wound, it should have been sewn up while alive.

    Su raised his hand and twisted the label on the opposite foot, and read: "Zhang Hua, twenty-five years old, estimated time of death: 2:00 a.m. on April 20, 2014."

    Other than that, there is no information.

    Wen Jianyan walked to the front of the stage and looked at the corpse of the man in front of him. He was the coroner. As a professional fraudster, he obtained information from himself.

    He raised his palms and looked at them.

    Knuckle calluses, depending on the location, should be long-term manual workers.

    There are signs of binding on the wrist. According to the color of the blood and the rotation angle of the wrist joint, he was tied behind his back before his death.

    Obviously, if they failed, the corpse would be placed in front of them.

    [Integrity First] In the live broadcast:

    "Ah ah ah ah play nb!"

    "My dear, this is a difficult branch! Even in the C-level dungeon, the difficult branch can finish things casually. It's really awesome."

    "And the 'manipulation' just now was really amazing. I really thought that someone would think of this solution... Only after the map is memorized, the position of the corpse can be accurately predicted through the sound. This is simply escaping the master!"

    "It's really good. Although it's theoretically possible, it's really hard to "fuck" as high as the sky. In fact, I used to believe in new broadcasters, and now I have to deviate from the vest school..."

    Wen Jianyan secretly memorized the details he observed from the corpse, and it might come in handy later.

    At this time, Qi Shen, who had been slumped on the ground just now, finally got up and walked up slowly.

    He held his breath slightly, looking at Wen Jianyan half in disbelief, half in hope:

    "Brother Zhao, you just said...you came to see my sister...is that true?"

    Wen Jianyan was awakened from his meditation by the voice.

    "..."

    Grass, almost forgot about this stubble.

    Generally speaking, Wen Jianyan would tell such a lie on the premise that the information at hand is far ahead of others, especially when it involves extremely familiarity with relatives that he does not know.

    The chances of this kind of lie being exposed are too great, even Wen Jianyan would dare to guarantee that it would be wrong.

    , the situation was urgent just now. In order to make Qi Shen continue to struggle frantically and lead to death, he came up with this last resort...

    It's cool when you lie, and the crematorium is a lie.

    What can we do now?

    Desperately round.

    Wen Jianyan cheered up, took a deep breath, turned to look at Qi Shen, and nodded slowly:

    "so."

    Su's face looked at Wen Jianyan in a daze, with little question marks all over his head.

    Dude, what are you talking about?

    Wen Jianyan didn't look right, but said in a low tone:

    "A Qing and I used to be lovers."

    "What?!"

    Qi Shen and Su screamed at the same time.

    On Xue Mingyan's list of words to Wen Jian, the basic information of the corpse was written, including that Gu had been missing since the beginning, and no corpse has appeared until now.

    Lin Qing, female, 29 years old.

    Although the two have the same surname, according to the previous situation, Wen Jianyan boldly guessed that the deceased might be Sister Qi Shen.

    So he took a gamble.

    "But...but...my sister never told me."

    Qi Shen said in disbelief: "She actually fell in love with you? This... how is this possible?"

    Good, bet right.

    Wen Jian let out a sigh of relief.

    Good, then you can play freely.

    "When she came to see you at school, she knew why she happened to be chatting with me. Although it has been a long time, I have forgotten what we chatted. I can still recall it now. God, when she smiled at me, I Think...I've been moving since then."

    Wen Jianyan sighed softly,

    "Later we added a contact type, and we got to know each other slowly."

    Qi Shen thought about it for a few seconds, and then seemed to have thought of it. He stared slightly, and slowly took a deep breath: "...You guys have known each other since my sophomore year?"

    The details are right, steady.

    Even if Qi Shen argued that his sister had never come to school to find him, Wen Jianyan could still make things right.

    The two have the same surname, and they have probably been separated since they were young, because of family reasons. Well, her coming to school can also be interpreted as: although her sister is actually very concerned about her younger brother, she secretly secretes her after work. Came to see the school, but never told the right.

    As long as you bring the pair into your own rhythm, the next step will be much easier.

    "We've been secretly dating, because our age gap is too big, and I'm your college classmate, and your sister is willing to make our relationship public."

    Under the light, the handsome young man raised his thin skin, and under the long and thick eyelashes, Qing Lingshuang looked over with a pair of amber eyes, his sad eyes almost hot and trembling:

    "Then... we broke up."

    "When I heard Ah Qing's name again, it was the news of her death."

    He looks sad and affectionate, and the outline of Qing Jun's face is covered with a layer of melancholy "color", which can almost make the people of Tie Shichang moved: "That's why I asked the teacher, hoping to arrange me into the blessing. The intern team of Kang Private General Hospital just wanted to see her last secretly again."

    Su: "…………"

    I fucking believe you!

    Dog liar, you are too human! It's okay to lie to me at the beginning, now you can even lie to the NPC!

    The new victim, Qi Shen, showed a deeply moved expression on his face, and it was obvious that he had already believed the lie.

    [Integrity First] In the live broadcast:

    "..."

    "Looking up at the name of the live broadcast, I want to say that everyone understands, right?"

    "Everyone is here, everyone spit and go! [Reward Points 50]"

    "Bah! Be embarrassed! [100 reward points]"

    "Although I know this dog liar made up, he looks so affectionate and handsome, and moved [reward points 50]"

    "Rang Rang Rang! The current one is here! Thank you everyone, we will get together!"

    The air was dead silent.

    After a long time, Qi Shen took a deep breath slowly, as if he had made up his mind: "Since you and my sister have such a relationship, I'm going to hide this from you."

    "I just heard my sister speak to me."

    Wen Jianyan stepped forward and stared in surprise: "What?"

    "She... let me get out of here quickly." Qi Shenhun said.

    He opened his hand and "revealed" something that he was holding tightly in his palm—a narrow card, like a work card:

    "And then, then she stuffed me with this."

    Wen Jianyan stretched out her hand and took the card from the opposite palm.

    Suddenly, a familiar voice rang in his ears.

    "Congratulations to Bo for getting the hidden items in the dungeon (difficult)!"

    【Collection degree 1/4】

    Wen Jianyan made up his mind and looked at the card in his hand.

    The plastic seal on the ID card was slightly folded, and it was splattered with brown and dried blood. Across the blood, Lin Qing, who was wearing a white coat, showed a smile on the inch photo.

    - "Gynecology" obstetrics physician.

    Wen Jianyan looked up at Qi Shen, and asked with little wings, "This photo... can I keep it?"

    His face was pale, his thin lips were pursed, and he looked extraordinarily vulnerable: "We fell in love directly, I don't have anything to miss her, not even a photo..."

    "certainly."

    Qi Shen sighed sadly, he stepped forward, raised his hand and patted Wen Jianyan's shoulder:

    "You... keep it."

    "..."

    For the first time, Cheng Su Ren looked away from the perspective of God.

    He silently covered his face.

    After all, as a former victim, this scene is too immersive!
