Aoba Office

"So you guys know each other."

"Wonderful! You are the first to see our arrangement! Haha, Qingye Supernatural Office, right? You are not actually investigating any supernatural cases, you are an ordinary firm, right? The supernatural is a gimmick, and your job is to solve those Superstition, exposing scientific truth. That’s great!”

"What do you do?"

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. You should have done some research. I am Xiao Xuri. My family runs a company, and I also opened a small company myself. I have money and leisure. I want to do something meaningful. This, It’s a set set up by me.”

Da da da……

"Pinhole cameras and recorders. We are monitoring next door. Lao Shen is the actor we found. He is excellent, much better than the previous ones."

"Mr. Xiao, you're welcome. I just want to study more and practice more..."

"We have found three groups of people so far, and you are the fourth group. The previous three groups, huh - are you interested in watching it? It is just a video, not edited yet. It will be edited when it is released, and the finished product will be It’s a documentary film of about two hours. Oh, have you heard of DV movies? It’s similar to that, but we use a camera.”

"It's impossible for a movie like this to be released, right?"

"It won't be shown on the big screen, but it will be on TV. It will expose the deceptions of the magic sticks and goddesses and let ignorant people see their ugly faces. This is the slogan I thought of, and I will ask professionals to make some modifications in the future. "

"We're not interested in this."

"It's a pity."

"I hope we don't appear in your documentary."

"Huh? Your performance is excellent. You are calm, rational and decisive. I can assure you here that you will be a positive image in the film. Others will agree..."

"We're not interested. Don't edit us in. You don't want to mess with us."

"Haha, I understand. If you appear in the camera, will it affect your future work? I understand. Don't worry, I don't need you. There is no comparison, which is quite good."

"This commission ends here. Please call me in time for the final payment."

"Okay, no problem. If I need anything in the future, I will contact you. Your investigation is very efficient."

"Thank you for the compliment."

On August 29, 2007, the investigation was concluded.

On November 11, 2007, I received a call from Xiao Xuri. Telephone recording 200711111539.mp3.

"Hello. Who is this?"

"Hiss-hoo-hoo-hoo-"

"Hello, who are you?"

"Gu...I am...Xiao Xuri..."

"Hello, Mr. Xiao, what's the matter?"

"I...I don't know...I...Old Shen is dead...Old Shen is dead..."

"Mr. Xiao, are you okay?"

"I'm not good, I'm fucking bad! Old Shen is dead, my second brother is crazy, Brother Tian was sent abroad by his family, I...I don't know...hiss-hu-hu-"

"Mr. Xiao, if it's convenient for you now, you can come to the office. Do you know the address of the office?"

"I know! I'm coming over now!"

On November 11, 2007, Xiao Xuri visited. Audio file 04120071111.wav.

"Mr. Xiao, please sit down."

"Old Shen is dead."

"Well, you said that on the phone."

"He died inside the house."

"oh."

"Aren't you surprised?"

"To be honest, no."

"Why?!"

"You hired people to catch ghosts, but you are actually setting up a trap to deceive. We don't care about it. We can accept it if you have money, but some people may be unhappy."

"You mean, someone killed Lao Shen? How is this possible? None of the people we invite later can kill. Those people can kill? Haha! Do you know how Lao Shen died? Cut with mirror fragments Aorta. The blood filled the bathtub. Gu... Not only that, but also... Lao Shen's body was stuffed into the mattress. When we found it, he was covered with maggots... vomit... …”

"Do you think this could not have been done by the people you hired?"

"Of course it's impossible! The forensic autopsy said it was incredible! All the blood on Old Shen's body was drained. Do you understand? To have a person's blood drained out, you need tools, not just cutting the arteries. How could those old things be possible? Do it? Only...only..."

"You suspect it's us?"

"I'm not……"

"We want to kill people, and we won't do it ourselves. I believe that some of the people you invited won't do it ourselves. Besides Shen Zhu, one of them is crazy, and the other one has gone abroad?"

"Yes... the three of us grew up in the same compound. Brother Tian is the eldest, and he was sent abroad by his family. He was sent abroad in a hurry, as if he was trying to avoid trouble, and his family members are not doing well recently. I asked , I couldn’t find out. They were hiding from me at home. My elders looked for me, but they were blocked. The second child went crazy. The second child found the body first. We called the police, and we were all a little panicked. The second child, he The first one to watch the video. We had the surveillance camera on all the time, so it should have been captured, but... I don't know... The second one saw it, went crazy, and deleted the video. I don't know what was captured... I …”

"You guessed it."

"W-what?"

"It can scare a person crazy. What the camera captures is not a picture of a person committing murder, but something that cannot be explained by the science you believe in."

"I……"

"My long-standing belief collapsed, so I went crazy. The second person you are talking about is the one who most believes that all of us are liars, right?"

"..."

"Brother Tian seems to know a lot in the family. Speaking of which, how did you find us? When Shen Zhu came here, he said he had heard of us. Is that what you heard? There seem to be elders in the family who are rich. In politics…is he our former client?”

"...Hu-...Hu-"

"Did the other people you invited come to us in this way? Do your family members know what you are doing?"

"……have no idea……"

"You invite someone, it must be Brother Tian who is asking for information."

"Yes...it's Brother Tian...he has someone in his family who knows this. At first, it was Brother Tian who suggested it, and the second child was very supportive. The second child's grandmother was superstitious, and she kept treating the second child's mother because of what a bald donkey said. It’s very bad. They have been tormenting their mother and son at home for decades. I was just joining in the fun. Am I... okay? I haven’t even met the people you invited after you!"

"I don't know. Is it just Shen Zhu who stayed in the house who died?"

"right."

"Then there might have been some manipulation inside the house."

"I'm all right?"

"have no idea."

"Can you investigate? I'll pay!"

"I don't want to get involved in this matter. The other party may just want to give you a warning. What happened to Brother Tian after he went abroad?"

"No news. I can't contact Brother Tian."

"You should ask for more information. Brother Tian's family may be settling this matter. If we intervene rashly, it will have the opposite effect."

"Oh well……"

On November 24, 2007, I received a call from Xiao Xuri. Telephone recording 200711240823.mp3.

"Hello, Mr. Xiao."

"...you...well...I...hu...wu——"

"Mr. Xiao, what happened?"

"Brother Tian...is dead..."

"Dead? Did you die abroad?"

"No, he died in that house... He secretly returned to China, and then... I received a call from him... He called me before he died..."

How can a horror story not include young people seeking death? ╮(￣▽￣“)╭
