Chapter 1 The Forgotten Woman
"What's the scariest thing you've ever experienced?"
The woman's mature and beautiful face looked unusually pale in the dim shop.
Faced with her question, I was slightly stunned, and various imaginations came to my mind, but they were not as scary as my current situation.
That means no money.
My name is Li Yunfeng, and I rely on this Feng Shui shop left by my father to help people tell fortunes, ward off evil spirits, and read Feng Shui. However, I have no real talent and knowledge. I just rely on my mouth to fool around, and I am not even half-assed.
So there are almost no customers and it has not been open for a long time.
Survival has become my first problem.
"For me, the scariest thing is being forgotten."
The woman raised her head, revealing a red bloodshot eye from her messy hair, and asked herself a question, as if she didn't care at all whether I answered or not.
"You clearly exist in this world, but no one around you remembers you. All your relatives, friends, and even enemies have lost their memory of you."
"You are obviously alive, but you seem to be dead."
"The most terrifying thing is that you have even forgotten yourself!"
"Sorry to interrupt." I coughed lightly, "Madam, what does this have to do with you coming to me?"
I was not interested in her incomprehensible words at all.
If it weren't for the fact that it hasn't been open for two months, I would definitely not pay attention to this. She looks like a mentally ill woman.
"I want you to help me find out what is going on, and most importantly, who am I." The woman looked at me closely with red eyes.
"Sister, for things like amnesia, it would be better for you to contact a detective or a doctor! My business scope is: fortune telling and fortune telling!" I pointed to the old rolled-up poster on the wall.
"I tried, but it didn't work. They couldn't see me at all." The woman shook her head in frustration.
"You're not a ghost, how come they can't see you?" I have concluded that this woman is abnormal. She is quite beautiful, but she has a mental problem.
"Sister, please go home and take medicine early. I'm very busy."
The weather was sunny today, and I saw her walk in under the bright sun. If she were a ghost, I would perform a show of standing on her head to pee.
"I'm really not crazy! I'm looking for you because you are the only one who can see me!" The woman was anxious and grabbed my hand with all her strength. Her haggard and thin face came closer to me, "As long as you help me, I will give you any money." OK!"
Her hands were cold, not as warm as a living person.
"How much money do you have?" When I heard the word "money", my attitude softened. After all, people are poor and have short ambitions. "I have to pay a deposit first, five hundred, no bargaining."
"I only have so much money on me now." The woman searched again and again in embarrassment, and finally took out only three crumpled bills.
I glanced at it and couldn't help but twitch the corner of my mouth.
A total of two hundred and fifty yuan!
"Don't worry, when you find out who I am, I will give you everything I have!" The woman promised again and again, looking at me nervously, as if I was her last life-saving straw.
Two hundred and fifty is still two hundred and fifty, no matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat. I will have enough money for this week’s meals.
Putting the money in my pocket, I looked at this woman with a headache.
She is in her thirties, very beautiful, wearing a long red dress that outlines her curvy figure, but her eyes are darkened and her face is haggard, looking like she will collapse at any time.
I knew nothing about mental issues, and I didn’t know how to proceed. After thinking about it, I asked, “Have you encountered any strange people or things recently?”
"I only have memory of one thing, and that's this mobile phone." The woman took out a black mobile phone and placed it on the counter, with a deep fear hidden in her eyes.
The 7.9-inch large-screen mobile phone looks nothing special, but in your hand it feels like a piece of ice, cold to the bone.
There is no password, the lock screen can be unlocked directly.
The big screen was empty, and the only APP seemed lonely.
The icon is a black and white box, like the frame of a deceased photo. It looks a bit scary, but it is empty inside, with the small words "Guaitan Live Room" written underneath.
Live streaming software?
From the name, you can tell that it is a supernatural adventure live broadcast. Could it be that she has watched too many such live broadcasts and scared herself silly?
How terrifying is the content inside?
I'm a little curious and ready to open the software and take a look.
The moment I touched the icon, I felt as if my finger was bitten by something, and it hurt slightly. However, this feeling was fleeting and I didn't care.
I clicked several times but the software did not open. There seemed to be something wrong.
"Sister, your cell phone." I looked up, but was stunned. The woman who was sitting across from the counter just now was gone, and the seat was empty.
Escaped secretly?
"What a psycho!" I muttered and threw the black phone into the drawer.
However, after receiving two hundred and fifty yuan, my mood improved again and I was ready to go out for a feast.
Pulling down the rolling shutter door, I went to the braised chicken and rice that I usually go to.
"Did you hear that another person died in the house of the Eight Immortals Bun Shop? The method of death was exactly the same as the previous ones. Their throats were cut and the blood flowed out."
"The brave old Zhang took a look and said that the blood was everywhere. Not only the quilt on the bed was soaked, but also on the walls and the floor."
"I'll go! Don't talk about such bloody things while eating."
I also know that the house that the diners are talking about is a short-term rental house on the edge of our urban village. It was opened by an old couple who built their own house and is quite famous in our area.
The old couple originally owned a bun shop, and it is said that the business was once prosperous. However, later someone ate someone's finger in the buns, and no one dared to go there again.
The buns could no longer be sold, so the old couple converted their house into a short-term rental.
But the evil thing is that a female resident dies every six months. It is said that they are all young women with long black hair and red dresses, and they all live in Room 4.
Ordinarily, after such a brutal murder, no one would dare to go to that short-term rental house, or at the very least, no one would dare to stay in Room 4.
What's strange is that every six months, a woman dies tragically in that room.
The old couple is usually mysterious and rarely interacts with others. Especially the old woman, no one has seen her since the buns couldn't be rolled out.
Some people say that they are the murderers. They abducted the black-haired and red-dressed woman to rent a house and then brutally killed her.
However, this was denied by the police, because the investigation results showed that the women committed suicide and slit their own throats with a knife.
Some people also say that the bun shop is dirty and kills a beautiful woman every six months.
There are different opinions as to whether it is true or false, and there is no final conclusion.
I originally wanted to go there to check out Feng Shui and earn a commission, but I later gave up the idea because I felt extremely cold when I approached the house several times and my eyelids twitched wildly.
People in our industry are very religious and won't do weird things if they can.
At night, the urban village, which had been noisy all day, also became quiet.
I closed the door and sat alone in the shop watching the game live broadcast on my mobile phone as usual.
After a few games, it was already late at night.
I stretched myself and prepared to go to sleep. Just then, in the quiet shop, the sound of my phone vibrating suddenly sounded.
Buzz buzz——
I got goosebumps. My phone was in my hand. Where did this sound come from?
I panicked for half a second, and then I saw the light flickering in the drawer on the counter, and then I remembered that I still had the phone of that crazy woman in it.
Could it be that she remembered that she left her cell phone with me and was going to take it back?
I opened the drawer, picked up the phone and took a look, but was stunned.
"The host's identity has been bound. The first live broadcast will be at Baxian Baozi Shop. Do you want to open the live broadcast room?" The phone kept vibrating, and a row of red words flashed on the screen.
Under the words in blood, there are two options.
whether.
