Chapter 19
Chapter 19
After getting clues about his wife's death from an old classmate, Dou Huai understood that his mission changed instantly.
1. Find Wang Chunhua's body.
2. Obtain the approval of the strange shadow.
In fact, the game has been played until now, and the plot line can already be guessed roughly.The doctor may have manipulated Zhao Dongshi to kill his wife for some unknown reason. After hiding the corpse, Zhao was brainwashed and forgot about it, thereby avoiding police inquiries.I'm afraid Zhao was being brainwashed by the doctor during the seven days of leave.
Moreover, according to Hu Benrong's extremely dignified attitude, it seems that the other five murders are also related to the doctor.
"...Yu Muqing looks like a dog, but he is actually a serial killer?"
Remembering that he was almost manipulated by him, Dou Huai broke into white sweat.
"When other murders happened, the murderer and the corpse were in the room, making the case simple, and the doctor could not be found. I don't know what happened to Zhao Dongxi's turn, so the doctor had to hide his wife's body. "
But Dou Huai was sure that such a cautious and intelligent doctor would not hide the corpse far away.
Because the farther away the corpse is hidden, the greater the possibility of exposure.And more importantly, Wang Chunhua's wronged soul is still in 101!Her corpse must not be too far away!
"We must return to Xiyuan Community immediately, and we must find Wang Chunhua's body before the police!"
The community during the day is obviously different from that at night. Several residential buildings look dusty, and the peeling walls are like patches of white spots, dilapidated and abrupt.
Dou Huai walked into Building No. 2 along the path, and saw several cut ropes and pieces of cardboard at the stairs.
"Someone cut the rope and closed the door of Haunted House 101. I don't know if it's the old lady on the third floor or the mysterious man on the sixth floor."
There seems to be no normal person in this building, so be careful.
He cleaned up the rubbish and took the key from the door frame with ease.
The sound of the lock turning was very clear in the corridor, and Dou Huai stepped into the house.This time, he chose to close the door tightly.
The oppressive and cramped hut has not changed in any way from last time, but there seems to be a faint stench in the air.With heavy curtains drawn on all the windows, even with the sun shining outside, 101 is extremely dark and feels very unsafe.
"There is no obvious smell of corpses. Will the corpse be hidden in this house?"
Dou Huai was the first to stare at the door of the master bedroom. The door was open, and he could clearly see the semi-exposed bed and the tightly closed wardrobe.
"...The black shadow returned to the closet, did you remember to close the door?"
He had never experienced a supernatural event, so he didn't know whether it was an evil spirit or a product of resentment.
"I hope it's a good communicator."
It has to be said that during the day it can indeed fill people with "bold" buffs.Although the haunted house is still gloomy, it feels much better than entering in the middle of the night last time.
He walked slowly into the master bedroom, which was no different from the first time he came here.
The two closed wardrobe doors faced the sealed windows, the old wooden boards stood quietly, and there was no light in the cracks between the doors.
Dou Huai hated the closet since he was a child, because there were piles of clothes hanging in the closet.They have limbs and bodies like humans, the only difference is that they are light and fluffy.Once the cabinet door is closed, the world in the closet is completely cut off from the outside world. Will those clothes move at this time?Over time, will they want to replace themselves?
So Dou Huai must close all the wardrobe doors tightly before going to bed.If a crack is opened, he will always feel that there is a pair of eyes watching him.
Taking a deep breath, Dou Huai held the doorknob and slowly opened the cabinet door.
The expected scene of corpses flying around did not appear, and two women's clothes were sparsely hung on the iron crossbar.With the diffused light from outside, I could still see a few pieces of women's home clothes piled up randomly in the corner.
"It should be Wang Chunhua's clothes. It looks like it hasn't been worn for a long time, and the pockets are very clean."
He tapped on the side board again, and it didn't sound like there was any sandwich or something.
"Then why did Wang Chunhua's wronged soul crawl out from here?"
Dou Huai didn't give up, he stuck most of his body inside, groping the board inch by inch, trying to find effective clues.
Finally, when I touched the gap at the bottom of the home clothes, I felt a different touch from my fingertips.
"It's pitted, as if someone carved it?"
The characters were too small and messy, so he gritted his teeth and just crawled in.
The closet was dark and narrow, and Dou Huai had to curl up tightly.
"Okay, if that black shadow comes out again, we will probably meet face to face directly."
Thinking of that scene made him numb all over.
Quickly took out his mobile phone and pressed the flashlight, Dou Huai leaned over hard to look at the bottom.
Sure enough, near the edge of the wooden board, there was a line of small characters carved crookedly and in different shades.Looking carefully, it seems that there is still a dark brown solidified liquid hidden in the gully.
【I'm not sick, don't trust the doctor】
"It looks like it was scratched with a fingernail... The dark brown thing should be blood. Who could have carved this? Could it be Wang Chunhua?"
Dou Huai still remembers that it was written in the diary with the red cover—[I hid under the bed, in the closet, and in the ceiling, but he found them all].
"Wang Chunhua hid in the closet and carved the words [I'm not sick] with her nails. What does it mean? She's not sick? Could it be that the hospital's diagnosis was wrong? She can actually have children?"
Dou Huai was stunned by this guess, why?
"No, it's not right. I've read the diagnosis sheet, and the hospital's diagnosis can't be wrong. The diary also mentioned that they had gone to the provincial hospital for an examination. This can't be fake. Then what's wrong with her?"
The clip of the underground garage flashed through his mind, and Dou Huai suddenly remembered that he had found Wang Chunhua's prescription for depression, and the attending doctor was Yu Muqing.
[Don't trust the doctor].
"The doctor probably wanted to manipulate Wang Chunhua when he came into contact with her, but it didn't seem to be completely successful. Is that so? I seem to understand a little bit."
Looking around, there were no other clues in the closet, so Dou Huai quickly crawled out.
The cramped and dark feeling inside is very uncomfortable, and I am always worried that a human face will suddenly stick out.
Standing in the bedroom, Dou Huai began to try to figure out what happened.
"Knowing that she can't conceive, Wang Chunhua must have had a lot of emotional ups and downs. As a husband who works as a security guard in the hospital, his first thought should be to take his wife to see a psychologist."
Maybe it was an unintentional move, or maybe it was a deliberate arrangement, and the two walked into Yu Muqing's office together.
At first Dou Huai thought that the doctor manipulated Zhao Dongxi first, and then killed his wife.It is now found that the situation should be the opposite.
"The first person the doctor tried to manipulate should be Wang Chunhua. However, although this woman was deeply shocked, she was not controlled by the doctor casually. She kept a ray of clarity even when she was in a state of confusion, and always reminded herself that she was not sick."
Therefore, the method of pregnancy described in the diary should be a lie told by the doctor in order to control her.
How can you completely manipulate a person who is on the verge of despair?To give her hope, of course.
But this method may not be a normal method, which is why Zhao Dongshi quarreled with his wife and felt that his wife was more seriously ill.He found the doctor in private, but unexpectedly fell into the doctor's prey directly.
Wang Chunhua escaped mind control, but failed to escape her husband.
But the question is, what is the doctor's reason for doing all this?Why is he so obsessed with letting members of a family kill each other?
Temporarily unable to figure it out, Dou Huai put the question aside.
"The bottom of the bed, the wardrobe and the ceiling mentioned in the diary should all be places where clues are hidden. Now that the wardrobe has been found, what remains are the bottom of the bed and the ceiling."
There is only one bed in the master bedroom. The standard size is 1.8x2 meters.
"Lying in it will be the same as lying in a coffin. It will be difficult to turn over. What if there is any danger?"
Dou Huai took a step back silently, "...Why don't you go and see the ceiling first?"
Good idea, that's it.It has nothing to do with courage, but mainly because I want to observe the decoration.
After making his decision, he immediately withdrew from the master bedroom.
Dou Huai has observed that the ceiling of the master bedroom is a very ordinary cement wall, and the head can be seen at a glance.What was mentioned in the diary should be somewhere else.
His eyes went to the second bedroom.
"Just this one, come one by one."
This time he learned to be smart, and focused on observing the door of the house before going in.
"No bits of duct tape or wood bolts, clean, doesn't look like there's anything weird locked up in the house."
Rest assured, he turned the door open and walked in.
The decaying smoke and dust rushed towards his face, and Dou Huai hurriedly waved his hands to disperse it.While shaking, the palm suddenly touched something.
Soft, cold, and slightly sticky.
The tense nerves broke all of a sudden, he was startled, and he punched out directly.
"Duckling Duckling Quacking, Quacking when I'm hungry~"
The ear-piercing singing cut through the silence, a dusty plush toy fell to the ground, turned on the switch, and automatically sang an ugly nursery rhyme.
Maybe it's because the battery is about to run out, the nursery rhyme is intermittent, and the pitch will be elongated at the end, singing a sense of horror that is about to die.
Dou Huai hurried over and turned off the switch after several times of breaking, the disturbing music stopped abruptly.
Holding the stuffed duck in his hand, he discovered that there was a thin thread tied to the duck's tail, and there was a sticky hook at the end, which was glued to the wall, and it looked like it had fallen from the wall.
"Hang the plush toys at the door of the room?"
As if feeling something, he looked up and saw that the ceiling above his head was covered with all kinds of plush toys.They all have two pale eyeballs sewn on, their mouths are wide open, and their fluffy fur is covered with floating ash.Blown by the wind that opened the door, they swayed and collided with each other, like a group of dead babies hanging.
Dou Huai: "..."
What kind of underworld aesthetic is this?Put the baby room like this, is the baby really okay?
It didn't feel good to be stared at by so many dolls, so he simply didn't look at it, and focused on this small bedroom.
"Baby crib, baby clothes, baby bottles, quilts, everything is complete."
It can be seen that Zhao Dongxi and his wife really want a child, and everything here reveals the parents' desire and love.
But the world is impermanent, and now the house is dilapidated and old, with no children, let alone a mother.
Suppressing the emotions welling up in his heart, Dou Huai seized the time to search.In order not to miss any clues, he even took apart the dirty plush toy to have a look.
But after working for 10 minutes, I turned the house upside down and found nothing useful.
"There is no place to hide the corpse here, let's go to the bathroom to have a look."
He was about to get up when his eyes fell on the toy duck on the side.
Fearing that there was something hidden inside, he unzipped the zipper and emptied the toy duck.The cotton wool fell all over the floor, and the big yellow duck, which was originally bulging and round, became a piece of rags, lying on its back on the ground, like a lifeless person.
"I'm sorry," Dou Huai leaned over and said apologetically, "I'll be fine soon."
He picked up all the cotton wool and carefully stuffed it back into the belly of the toy duck.Put it on the crib and arrange it, and then stood up again and walked outside the house.
But before he took two steps, his back suddenly felt cold.It felt as dangerous as falling into a snake's nest and being stared at by countless poisonous snakes.
With his heart beating like a drum, Dou Huai turned around suddenly, his pupils shrank!
The toy duck that was originally placed on the crib was sitting quietly on the floor at this moment, only a few centimeters away from his heels!
The eyes made of white plastic sheets stared straight at Dou Huai, and the mouth stitched with thin threads was split from the edge, revealing a few wisps of white cotton wool.
"It...it wants to bite me?"
Dou Huai's palms were covered with cold sweat, and he took a step back instinctively.Suddenly, a strange feeling struck.He slowly raised his head and saw the empty ceiling above his head.
"Wait a minute... where are those toys?"
