Chapter 63: Strange Silhouette (Third Update)
After hearing the footsteps outside the office, Liu Li's heart moved and he walked to the door of the office, putting his ear on it, wanting to confirm the sound again. At this time, suddenly, a chill ran down his neck, and a faint voice floated in his ears: "What are you listening to?"
"I'm going to go crazy...... it's haunted......" As soon as Liu Li heard this voice, his hair stood up instantly, and his heart also followed with a rapid "thumping thumping thumping..." beat. When he turned his head back with a quivering body, the expression on his face suddenly relaxed.
It turned out that Yang Zhengcai and Ren Dongchao had quietly come to his back at some point, both of them making the same movement as Liu Li, sticking their ears on the door to listen to the sound outside, and the person who just spoke was Ren Dongchao.
"Damn it... I almost got scared to death by you. In the future, don't speak so mysteriously, it's like you're a ghost." After complaining, Liu Li asked Yang Zhengcai to bring over two flashlights. Once all three of them had flashlights, Liu Li turned off the lights in the office area and led the two others outside.
"Officer Liu, let's go back? This place is often noisy, we're used to it, those are just the sounds of ghosts and evil spirits wandering around, if we touch something dirty, we'll be unlucky." Hei Mo walked on the road leading to the memorial hall, Yang Zhengcai's voice trembling as he advised Liu Li to go back.
After hearing Yang Zhengcai's words, Liu Li couldn't help but whisper back: "Nonsense, do you think I've never heard a ghost story? Those stories all say that when ghosts walk, their bodies float, so ghosts walking at night make no sound.
But I just heard the footsteps, so I'm sure someone must have come here recently. With a murder case happening at the crematorium and someone visiting it in the middle of the night, there's definitely something fishy going on. If we can catch that person, maybe we can solve this case."
"Can't you two not mention ghosts? Look at where we are! This is a crematorium, can't you talk about something else? I'm getting more and more scared, but you two just keep talking about ghosts nonstop. If you're still going to discuss this topic, then I'm leaving." Ren Dong followed behind the two, protesting as they continued to enthusiastically discuss ghosts.
"Let's not talk about ghosts anymore, let's talk about the gods instead? Those gods in there can wipe out a house full of ghosts with just one sneeze, it's worth discussing them, right?" Hearing Ren Dong's protest, Liu Li had to change the subject.
He didn't want to talk either, the crematorium at night was cold and dark, opening his mouth to speak, his mouth was filled with cool air. However, although Liu Li appeared calm on the surface, he was also afraid in his heart, he had to find a way to transfer his fear, so he kept chatting quietly with someone somewhere.
The three of them walked in the dark, following Liu Li's guidance through the crematorium. Suddenly, Liu Li stopped and crouched down behind a pine tree, making a "shh" sound to the other two and gesturing for them to be quiet, then pointed ahead.
Following the direction of Liu Li's pointing, Yang Zhengcai and Ren Dongchao took a closer look, and at this time, they saw that there was a strange black shadow in the position of the crematorium memorial hall.
The black shadow walked north from the steps of the memorial hall, apparently heading for the crematorium. Seeing this, Liu Li and the other two also quietly moved their bodies, slowly approaching the direction of the crematorium. Just as the black shadow arrived in front of the crematorium and was about to enter, suddenly, a "slap" sound came from the crematorium in the dead of night.
