The Mystery of the Inner Demon

Chapter 63 There is someone behind the scenes
Sha Gou had just clicked on the video and was about to watch it with Zhong Kui when his phone was snatched away by Qi Fei.

"Let's watch it together." Qi Fei said as he leaned his phone against the coffee table. Everyone stared at the small screen and watched the video intently.

The video begins in the 80s, using fictional images to tell the story of a new building being built in the city center of a southern city. A construction vehicle suddenly lost control while reversing and crashed into the wall of the neighboring school.

Accompanied by the screams of a group of students, a sixteen-year-old female middle school student was trapped under the wall. By the time the workers removed the bricks, the girl was already covered in blood and dead.

The building was built by a big company. The girl's mother had nowhere to turn to and cursed every day at the construction site, saying that even if the building was completed, the people living in it would not have a good life.

Amidst such curses, the building was still built.

The girl's family gradually stopped making trouble.

But the feng shui of this building was truly unlucky. First, a young man living on the second floor died after crashing his motorcycle into a utility pole. Then, a family on the third floor was wiped out by gas poisoning, and two people on the fourth floor went missing.

To their surprise, the owner of household 101 was also in the video. It turned out that Zhou Li was not He Zhixin's original wife. Twenty years ago, his original wife accidentally fell into the water when she was returning home from the night shift and drowned in the river north of the apartment. The owner of household 102 opposite was an old man who died of cancer.

Qi Fei watched the video with disdain at first, but was gradually shocked by the content.

The person who made this video put in a lot of effort to dig up the various deaths in this apartment over the past forty years.

The key point is that Qi Fei felt that he was almost convinced by the video - there was indeed something weird about this apartment building.

"It seems they need someone to exorcise the demon!" Zhong Kui watched with great interest from the side. Qi Fei could even hear the clinking of abacus beads in her mind.

"I'm telling you, don't do anything rash until Yue Fengsheng's case is investigated thoroughly." Qi Fei warned Zhong Kui.

"That means, if I help you solve the case, I can help them exorcise the demons?" Zhong Kui immediately caught the loophole in Qi Fei's words.

Sha Gou, standing by, was clearly filled with curiosity about Zhong Kui. "Ah? You're thousands of years old and can exorcise demons... Sis, why don't you join my account? We'll definitely be a big hit together!"

Zhong Kui looked at Sha Gou and suddenly said for no apparent reason: "I won't join you. Besides, people like you who have stomachaches and headaches shouldn't often go to places with such heavy yin energy."

Sha Gou opened his eyes wide in surprise. "How did you know I often have stomach upsets and headaches?"

"I also know that you can't find the cause of the disease." Zhong Kui smiled evilly.

"Ah, yes!"

"When your blood flow is low, do you feel more uncomfortable?"

"How do you know everything?"

"What's even more distressing is that there's no cure for these problems. You're already terribly distressed, and the doctor you went to says it's not serious, right?"

Sha Gou nodded rapidly, "I got it all right! Are you a fox spirit?"

"You almost guessed it. I am the reincarnation of Wong Tai Sin. Only I can solve your problem." Zhong Kui raised the corner of his mouth slightly, knowing that he had gained another believer.

"Zhong Kui!" Qi Fei interrupted her, "Didn't you just agree to this?" "This person isn't from the apartment, and..." Zhong Kui always liked to whisper in Qi Fei's ear, "Isn't this my job to solve the case?"

"I don't trust you!" Qi Fei said angrily, and then said to Sha Gou, "Don't listen to her, or you'll lose your money. Where's your key?"

"What?" Sha Gou was still immersed in Zhong Kui's charm and did not react for a while.

"The key to 301!" Qi Fei reminded loudly.

Sha Gou reacted this time, and searched his trouser pocket for a long time: "Ha! Found it!" He was so happy that his hand shook when he took the key out of his pocket, and the key flew in a perfect arc in the air and landed accurately in the hot pot.

"Damn it!" Qi Fei felt terrible. Now even the possible clues were gone. "You are such a fucking stupid dog!" He couldn't help but swear.

"Oh my god, I'm sorry!" Sha Gou looked apologetic. He clumsily tried to fish the key out of the hot pot with a spoon for a long time, but he couldn't.

Just as he was spinning around anxiously, suddenly there was a "click" and the key flew out of the soup and landed in Zhong Kui's hand. Sha Gou was stunned: "Fuck, are you really a god?"

Qi Fei pointed at Zhong Kui's hand and asked calmly, "Where did you get this thing?"

I saw Zhong Kui holding a black lump in his hand, which was firmly sucking the key. It looked like a big magnet.

Zhong Kui said lightly, "Isn't it just the tripod he used for filming?" and pointed to the tripod that Sha Gou used for filming.

Sha Gou recognized it immediately: "Yes, yes, I took it from the corner. It fits perfectly under the camera stand. It's actually a magnet."

Qi Fei looked at this unreliable internet celebrity and sighed. Although he knew that all the fingerprints on the key were gone after being boiled in the hot pot, he still carefully put the key away and prepared to take it back to the police station for a thorough inspection.

Then he looked at Sha Gou and said, "You said you shot a lot of footage. Can you show it to me?"

Sha Gou obediently showed Qi Fei what he had recorded as soon as he entered the door. The video was accompanied by his startled commentary throughout the whole process. No wonder he could hear that kind of mumbling voice outside the door just now.

Qi Fei endured the noise and watched. When Sha Gou came in, he first shone a flashlight in a serious manner to deliberately create a scary atmosphere. He walked around the rooms, and suddenly turned around from time to time, pretending that there was someone behind him. This guy really had his own experience in attracting attention, and Qi Fei couldn't help but watch.

"Someone." Zhong Kui's voice suddenly came from behind them, scaring the two men.

"Please don't scare people at this time, okay?" Sha Gou patted his chest, frightened by the footage he had shot.

Zhong Kui had no intention of playing a prank. She seemed completely unperturbed by the chaotic words in Sha Gou's video and said calmly, "Go back to the place where you suddenly filmed behind you just now."

These words made the hairs on both of their bodies stand up.

Sha Gou fell back obediently. It was an extremely blurry shot, only less than a second. He flipped back frame by frame, and the final frozen picture made them gasp.

I saw a dark shadow standing quietly behind the door. I couldn't see the man's face clearly, but I knew that he must be facing Sha Gou, and might even be watching him in the dark.
