Damn! I'm surrounded by beautiful women's ghost stories

Xia Shu looked down in the direction the other person pointed.

There are indeed red gourd patterns at the entrance of the office, which look like they were printed with blood, and are densely packed.

But if I say it is a gourd, something feels wrong, it always feels too twisted.

"It looks like someone is walking on tiptoe." Xia Shu squatted on the ground, pinched his chin and observed: "Walking back and forth, overlapping, but the heel is not touching the ground, and the toes of the front foot are also missing, so it looks like a gourd."

Chapter 12: The Man Who Helps the Tiger

Xia Shu thought of the knock on the door last night and the overly polite person outside.

It seems that the woman in red who was going to come to the door after hearing the story has already come. She was probably blocked outside the door by her own container of salt and was powerless, so she could only wander around.

He remembered the task prompt again, which asked him to entertain the other party.

Entertain? Invite a woman who can leave bloody footprints? It's simply courting death.

"Nothing." Xia Shu supported his knees and slowly stood up: "You came here suddenly, are you in trouble again?"

"It's like this, my friend brought some souvenirs from her hometown in Kyushu. Because I mentioned to her last time that Mr. Yahiro saved me, she also brought some souvenirs, hoping that I can give them to her in return." Qianhua took out three gift boxes from her tote bag that seemed to be able to hold a lot of things, and the boxes showed the entire contents: "Amakusa shrimp pancakes, transparent soy sauce, and Kuri Chisato."

"Thank you very much," Xia Shu accepted the gift, "It must be a specialty of Kumamoto, I've wanted to try it for a long time."

Xia Shu entered the office, and Qianhua also bowed and walked in after saying "excuse me".

"Have a drink?" Xia Shu took out the only bottle of Coke left.

The familiar single can of Coke.

"Thank you." Qianhua sat on the sofa, but didn't intend to touch the can of Coke: "Is Mr. Yahiro busy recently?"

"Not bad," Xia Shu nodded, "Not too busy."

There are just two maps and two tasks waiting for you to complete.

"Um... on the weekend, Bunkyo Ward will hold a hydrangea festival. Do you want to go see the hydrangeas together?" Her two index fingers were fighting on her legs, and her eyes were wandering.

"Sure," Xia Shu nodded decisively.

Qianhua was a little surprised by his decisiveness, and looked at Xia Shu: "I have friends who will come with me, and Mr. Yahiro can also bring friends."

"Friends...?" Natsuki thought.

Nojiri Masakawa? He was not only his friend, but also Chika's friend. The two of them were much closer than he was.

The two chatted for a while about what happened after the "ghost call". With the broadcast of the supernatural program last night, The Grudge has become a hot topic. Small weird stories like ghost calls have been relegated to the corner of online topics and no one mentions them. For Qianhua, this is a blessing.

……

Noon 12: 20

After contacting the real estate company, Xia Shu came to their office.

"Dongye Real Estate" has a lot of properties available, and the old house that attracted attention from the outside world because of the latest variety show is also included in its information.

The automatic sensing door was very sensitive, and when Xia Shu stood at the door, the door opened automatically.

Natsuki was greeted by a middle-aged man wearing a plaid shirt and denim overalls. It seemed like a British style combination, but because of his Mediterranean forehead and beard, he looked like a three-dimensional Mario.

"Is this Mr. Yahiro who called to make the appointment?"

The female salesperson who was idle nearby cleverly brought a drink. Xia Shu smiled and nodded to express his gratitude.

"it's me."

“What do you want from a house?”

"The cursed house is fine."

The air was stagnant for a moment.

"Uh, you mean?"

"The house in The Grudge is very popular recently." Xia Shu picked up the paper cup, took a sip, and found that it contained a sweet drink made with cola powder. He put the paper cup on the table without interest.

Isn't cola without carbonation just sugar water?

“That house is indeed very cheap, and someone died there, but the curse is...hahaha.” As a real estate agency, it is basic ethics to not recognize haunted houses, otherwise they will forget about selling the house.

Xia Shu didn't dwell on this too much: "Can you tell me the details of the house?"

"Yes, please wait."

The agent not only brought a document, but also a building floor plan.

"That house does make people feel uncomfortable." Perhaps it was because he finally found someone willing to ask, the agent was very active in introducing it while Xia Shu was looking through the information: "There was a murder case, but it's a bit exaggerated to think that there is a curse in the world that kills people, haha... If people who enter that house will be entangled by the curse, I have not only had to introduce houses for ten years, but also had to go in for regular inspections. I must have been entangled a long time ago, but I actually eat well and sleep well, hahaha."

His laughter was very dry, like someone who had told a joke but found that the audience looked angry.

Xia Shu paused while flipping through the documents. He raised his head and asked, "What do you think is the reason why you are safe and sound?"

The agent's smile froze completely. He might have noticed it a long time ago, but many times the ostrich tactic can solve many problems.

In this world, the only thing scarier than being cursed is losing your job.

Having no money is the most terrifying thing.

Xia Shu likes to use "tiger" to describe the strange stories in this world.

For example, three people make a tiger.

And... being an accomplice to the evil.

If the agent also dies, then no new residents will ever move into that haunted house.

Xia Shu stopped paying attention to the agent and lowered his head to look through the information.

The agent is not the police and it is impossible for him to compile the relevant information of the deceased into a file for others to view, especially negative information, which will greatly affect the secondary sales of the house.

Even though the law clearly stipulates that it is necessary to inform the agent if someone has died in the house, not every agent will follow it.

The information only briefly mentioned that the haunted house had changed owners four times in total, and all four times ended in death.

The first murder occurred in a family of four 4 years ago.

The house remained vacant for a long time and was sold again seven years ago.

The person who bought the house this time was a single father with twins.

But the family of three only lived there for a while, then the single father hanged himself, one of the twins went missing, and the other also moved away.

Perhaps in an attempt to prove that the haunted house was not real, the information provided a detailed explanation of the part where one of the twins left "safe and sound".

The third time was four years ago, also a homicide.

So, when the murder happened a year ago, people didn't care about the murderer at all, but all believed that the death was caused by the curse of the house.

Natsuki had a different idea: "If it's really the grudge, there's no reason why it's only F rank."

Suddenly his expression changed.

[Ghost Story Map: Cursed House (E)]

[Status: Opening (85%)]

[Details: Eliminate the ghost of the lonely old man who died in the house (0/1)]

Not only did the map opening speed increase to 85% at full speed, but the map difficulty was also increased to E.

Should I sigh and say that my mouth is blessed?

Xia Shu immediately took out his mobile phone and searched for relevant information on the Internet, and soon found a related one.

Now that the Internet is well developed, many celebrities are willing to create their own battlefield on the Internet. Today, Kaori Hoshino, who went to the amusement park with her friends, suddenly pointed at an empty space and screamed, saying it was that child, and then fainted.

Considering that in last night’s supernatural show, Kaori Hoshino also saw a “child”, today’s sudden fainting became a bit strange.

Natsuki casually flipped through the comments.

"Her acting is so fake. Because yesterday's haunted house exploration gave her a lot of fans, she started directing and acting in the show herself?"

"It doesn't feel fake. Her expression just now was out of control. There's no reason for a sweet female star who just debuted to uglify herself and narrow her acting range."

"+1, it doesn't seem fake. I heard that she hasn't been sleeping well at night recently. Her social media accounts have been posting confusing things, and she especially likes to like videos of Buddha statues."

"Her acting skills are not bad!"

There are various theories, but what is certain is that last night's supernatural show and today's live broadcast accident have rapidly increased the popularity of "Cursed House".

At the current rate, that house will completely invade the real world tonight, and may even increase its level again. If it reaches Level D, Xia Shu himself cannot guarantee that he can successfully resolve it.

Xia Shu closed the information: "I want to try living in that house."

Chapter 13 I Only Look at the Thunder and Fire Sword

There are three imminent problems that trouble Xia Shu now.

First, the unheard-of woman in red came to visit and she really wanted to see him.

Secondly, if you don’t take the initiative to deal with the things in the haunted house, you will most likely be the target.

Third, work and make money.

His hourly wage was already relatively low. As a little-known detective, he couldn't handle fighting monsters and talking about maps while helping some men investigate evidence of their wives' infidelity.

Just after leaving the real estate agency's office, Xia Shu received a request from a friend introduced by an old customer to track down and investigate his wife because he suspected that his wife was having an affair.

As a country with an infidelity rate as high as 50%, when a man suspects his wife of cheating, it is basically a done deal.

As long as you are patient and follow up, you will get results in a week at most.

Faced with the money that was offered to him voluntarily, Xia Shu had to say that he didn't have time and reluctantly pushed it to his colleagues.

evening.

Natsuki arrived at the haunted house with a bag on his back, a baseball bat in his hand, and a container of salt.

Push open the creaking iron door.

Natsuki rubbed his fingers together.

The rust on the door was like glue, making him feel uncomfortable.

The spacious courtyard is covered with vines, which form a sharp contrast with the smooth walls.

Just as he took a step forward, he subconsciously lifted his foot and found the shriveled body of a dead pigeon under his feet.

There is an ominous atmosphere everywhere.
