I'm being held captive by a monster
Chapter 57 Is there anyone?
Chapter 57 Is there anyone?
"Here, little brat, check the time. It's two o'clock now. I'll be waiting for you here at half past three."
"Also, I'll only wait for you until three-thirty-five, so be sure to be punctual!"
Teacher Orange handed a health bracelet to Lin Xing'an.
"Okay! Half past three!"
After Lin Xing'an took it, he checked the time on his phone.
The two of them didn't say anything more after that.
Teacher Orange drove along the path towards the Qishishan Resort.
Lin Xing'an looked at Villa No. 06 not far away.
Just on the way here, he and Teacher Orange also clarified the goal of this reconnaissance.
The first thing is to familiarize yourself with the environment around the villa and the battlefield inside the villa.
Secondly, try to observe the details of the illusion ghost in the villa as much as possible.
It may be easier to infer its weaknesses through life details, especially some unusual details!
"There's basically no one living in this villa area..."
"That's just right."
Lin Xing'an walked along the way and didn't see any occupied villas.
"He shouldn't be home at this hour."
In front of Villa No. 06, Lin Xing'an adjusted his expression and politely pressed the doorbell.
Then he took the opportunity to observe the yard outside.
It’s different from most of the other choices I’ve seen of growing vegetables.
This hallucinatory ghost completely transformed the yard into a garden.
In this season, all kinds of colorful flowers are in full bloom, and the fragrance is everywhere.
Butterflies dance among the flowers and the birds sing melodiously.
After pressing the doorbell a few more times and waiting for a long time with no response, Lin Xing'an finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The wall outside the garden is less than two meters high.
Even without Yinhui's help, with his current physical condition, Lin Xing'an felt that he could jump up by placing a few bricks under him.
"But how do we get into the house..."
Lin Xing'an continued to walk around the outer wall to observe the villa.
"Why are the curtains so tightly drawn?"
He frowned.
Every window visible from the outside, whether on the first, second, or third floor, had heavy curtains drawn.
I wish not even a little bit of light could get through.
Could it be that this hallucinatory ghost has a dark personality and doesn't like light?
Or is sunlight her weakness?
But can people who don’t like light really decorate their garden with colorful flowers?
Lin Xing'an kept the question in mind.
"Ouch!"
But when he walked around to the backyard, his eyes suddenly lit up.
The backyard is also full of flowers, but the main attraction is the big tree in the middle of the garden, whose trunk requires two adults to barely hug.
Although the tree is old, it is not very tall, probably because it is on the shady side.
The extended trunk just reached the second-floor window, where a swing made of a tire swung.
Among the dense tree canopy, there is a small tree house covered with vines.
It really looks like a fairy tale world.
"You can get in through the second-floor window."
Lin Xing'an narrowed his eyes.
He looked around and found that only the small window on the second floor facing the tree house was open and there were no curtains drawn.
Even though there was a screen, his gloom could easily seep in through the small holes in the screen and open it.
"call……"
Lin Xing'an let out a light breath.
The wall of the backyard is one meter higher than that of the front yard.
But fortunately there is that big tree.
Lin Xing'an estimated the distance with his eyes, and the dark energy in his hand moved as he wished, turning into a hook.
"Whoosh!"
He threw it with all his might, and the rope was tightly wrapped around the branch of the tree.
After confirming that it was sturdy, Lin Xing'an also pulled the rope, stepped on the wall and easily climbed into the yard.
Then the dark shadow shrank, and Lin Xing'an, whose feet had not yet touched the ground, jumped directly onto the tree.
"call!"
The gloom dissipated, and Lin Xing'an leaned against the tree trunk. His health bracelet showed that his heart rate had reached 110.
This was the first time he used Yinhui seriously.
Although he knew he would not be in any danger, the feeling of flying over the eaves and walls still made him very excited.
"No one has been to the tree house for a long time."
Lin Xing'an first went to take a look at the tree house nearby.
The two-square-meter space was covered in dust, and there was only a chair and a bottle of milk that looked expired.
After confirming that there was nothing valuable, Lin Xing'an did not stay.
Following the tree trunk, he easily reached the window. "This should be the bedroom where the hallucinating ghost lives."
Through the window, Lin Xing'an saw that the house was only about 20 or 30 square meters.
A big bed, a table, a cabinet, and a floor-to-ceiling mirror that is as tall as a person.
And the quilt on the bed has not been made yet.
The darkness in Lin Xing'an's hand turned into silk threads that seeped through the screen.
They gathered together inside and became a hand, which easily opened the screen window.
He put on the shoe covers he had prepared in advance, and the darkness in his hands turned into a layer of gloves and was put on.
"Such a large three-story villa, does that hallucinatory ghost usually live in such a small room..."
"And this room..."
Lin Xing'an went out again to take a look.
Judging from the outside, this room should definitely be more than this small...
"Maybe the space was divided next door?"
After pulling the screen window back up, Lin Xing'an first glanced at the messy bed.
On the pillow were two half-meter-long hairs.
In the sunlight it glows aqua blue.
It was exactly the same as the blue-haired hallucinatory ghost that Lin Xing'an saw at the train station that night.
“This mirror…”
Lin Xing'an frowned.
The floor-to-ceiling mirror, which is as tall as a person, is embedded in the wall and faces the bed.
Don’t ghosts hate mirrors?
Why would it be arranged like this deliberately?
Lin Xing'an walked to the mirror and looked at himself.
“It was a great decision to come here early to check out the location.”
"This unusual little detail might actually be related to its weakness..."
He looked at the half-open wardrobe again.
There were very few clothes inside, all home pajamas, and even a set of Nancheng No. 1 Middle School uniform.
"...but why is it a boys' uniform?"
Lin Xing'an was stunned for a moment, then looked at it carefully again.
There wasn't a single skirt or underwear for women in the closet.
Even the pajamas are gray and black men's style.
The desk was clean and without any decoration, except for a homemade robot model.
There are two glasses cases in the bookcase.
One of them contained a pair of black-framed glasses, and judging by the thickness of the lenses, the angle must be at least five or six hundred degrees.
"That hallucinating ghost...is she nearsighted? She doesn't even wear glasses, does she?"
Lin Xing'an felt a little doubtful and opened the drawer under the table again.
"...razor?"
There was an electric shaver in the drawer, nothing else.
“…Isn’t this the hallucinating ghost’s room?”
"But if this is a boy's room, why would there be long hair on the single bed..."
Lin Xing'an's doubts deepened.
"Hiss, this drawer... isn't right..."
His eyes narrowed.
With this weight, there definitely shouldn't be just a razor in the drawer.
And from the sound, it seems like there is a hidden compartment...
Lin Xing'an took out the razor and fumbled around in the drawer.
"really."
He nudged the back of the drawer.
The baffle popped open, revealing a secret compartment with a larger space.
"pat..."
Several strands of long hair caught in the gap were also torn off by the opening of the baffle.
Lin Xing'an paused, turned his head and narrowed his eyes slightly.
In the secret compartment, what caught my eye was a family photo.
The photo is dated fifteen years ago.
But between the man and the woman, there was clearly a little boy with a noticeable brown birthmark on his forehead...
"Zhou Ziming..."
Below the family photo is a diary.
The words "Zhou Ziming" are written on the cover.
"Dangdang!"
But before Lin Xing'an could take a closer look, a loud bang suddenly came from outside!
anyone?
Lin Xing'an's breath was choked!
