Monument of Life and Death

   Chapter 886 Night Talk

"I..." Lu Jieyi really recalled, "I only remember that I was dreaming, and suddenly there was a lot of noise in the dream, it was very noisy, as if someone was beating gongs and drums in my ear, and then, Suddenly, I heard a scream."

   "Scream?" Tian Tian's eyes widened as if he was listening to a story, "Who screamed? The murderer?"

   "No," Lu Jieyi showed a confused expression, "It came from my mobile phone."

"cell phone?"

"Yes," Lu Jieyi nodded, "it's the phone. I was woken up by the scream. When I woke up, my phone was on my quilt. The phone showed that I was talking, and the scream came from On the other end of the phone."

   When Lu Jieyi said this, her face paled slightly.

   "So, it's not your call?" Tian Tian asked.

   "Of course not, I'm sleeping."

   "Who was the call to?" Tian Tian asked.

   "The strange thing is..." Lu Jieyi looked down at the phone on her lap, "On the other end of the phone, it's Xu Zishan."

   "Xu Zishan?" Tian Tian gasped in shock, "What's going on? The killer called Xu Zishan from your cell phone?"

   "I don't know if that call was from Xu Zishan, or if the murderer called him from my cell phone."

   "You won't know if you look at the call log." Tian Tian probed towards the phone, which immediately took on a new meaning in her eyes.

   "This is the strangest thing," Lu Jieyi turned on the phone and turned to the page of the call log. "There was no call log left for that call."

  Tian Tian looked at the phone page, and swiped up and down in disbelief, "Is it deleted by that murderer?"

   "Impossible, when the killer left, the phone hadn't been hung up," Lu Jieyi said, "I hung up after I woke up."

   "That was deleted by you, right?"

"If there was only this strange place, I might have thought I deleted it by mistake," Lu Jieyi sighed, "Tian Tian, ​​you remember that Xu Zishan called me once when we were practicing dancing yesterday. phone?"

   "Remember," Tian Tian said, "he didn't speak, it's weird."

   "The call record of that phone call also disappeared." Lu Jieyi said succinctly.

   As soon as these words came out, the other three people in the room were shocked.

   "It turns out that we won't leave a record of the call we made to her," Qin Yin looked at Wenling, "there is such a good thing."

  Qing Ling agrees with the first half of the sentence, but has reservations about whether it is a "good thing".

   "Then... Could it be that you deleted it by mistake?" Tian Tian said this sentence, even she didn't quite believe it, "Is there any other call records disappearing?"

  Lu Jieyi shook his head, "No, only those two links."

   "This... it's hard to do," Tian Tian blinked, "Is your phone broken?"

"I thought about this too," Lu Jieyi said, "but you see, during this period, I have several other call records, and the one with you is here, why the other records are fine, but it was Xu Zishan who called What's wrong with those two phone calls?"

   "Have you asked Xu Zishan?" Tian Tian asked.

   "I didn't ask," Lu Jieyi said, "I wanted to ask, but I was worried that the call wasn't from him at all. After all, I didn't hear his voice at all."

   "Didn't you hear the screams?" Tian Tian asked, "Since the murderer was already scared away when you were awakened by the screams, the screams came from the phone, right?"

   "But I have a vague feeling...that scream seemed to be a woman's voice."

   "Women?!" Tian Tian shuddered, then hugged his shoulders, "Don't scare me, women's screams... This is a bit scary."

   "I can't remember exactly," Lu Jieyi said, "but I always feel that the scream still lingers in my ears, very sharp and high-pitched, and the sound is not very pleasant..."

   "Hey—" Qin Yin was unhappy, "Who says that his voice is bad?"

   "It sounds good." Wen Ling stroked the dull hair on Qin Yin's head.

"When I woke up, the whole person was stunned. First I saw the mess in the room, and then I saw the mobile phone on the quilt - my mobile phone is usually placed next to the pillow, and the mobile phone showed that I was talking to Xu Zishan. On the call, I asked him, is Xu Zishan you, there was no conversation there, and I hung up the phone."

   "Was the call recorded at that time?"

   "I didn't pay attention," Lu Jieyi lowered her head, "I was terrified, and I heard someone smashing the door, so I rushed out."

Tian Tian sat in the chair and reacted for a while, then leaned back and patted Lu Jieyi on the back, "Don't be afraid, Yui, maybe it's just a network bug in the communication company, and cross-line incidents don't happen from time to time. Well."

   "You can also leave a record of the two calls," Lu Jieyi said. "I didn't dare to ask Xu Zishan, because from the way he looked, he seemed to have no knowledge of the two phone calls."

"People always pretend to be fake," Tian Tian comforted. "Maybe Xu Zishan called to make a prank. Maybe he has developed a way to not keep the call records... Anyway, they are not very boys. Are you good at these things?"

  Lu Jieyi teased, "If he can develop this technology, he doesn't need to go to university, he can graduate directly."

   Tian Tian also laughed a few times.

   After laughing, Lu Jieyi's sad face reappeared, she paused and said, "Actually, I thought about another possibility."

   Tian Tian tilted his head, "What?"

   "Haunted," Lu Jieyi stared at Tian Tian's face, "Do you think it might be haunted?"

  The air froze for a few seconds.

  Tada burst out laughing, "Yi, have you been so scared that you abandoned materialist values?"

  Lu Jieyi gave Tian Tian a white look, and hummed, "Okay, just think I'm joking."

"No... Are you serious?" Tian Tian laughed until tears almost came out, "Do you think there are really ghosts in this world? Then... Could it be that there are not only the two of us in this room, but also ghosts. Are you looking at us?"

   Qin Yin and Wen Ling, who were watching them, were silent, not knowing what to say.

   "I'm serious," Lu Jieyi paused, and his voice suddenly dropped, "In the past two days, there have always been guests staying in my hotel who said they heard strange noises."

  Tian Tian also restrained his smile and looked more serious, "I have heard of it, but I thought it was all rumors from your hotel's competitors."

   "Maybe..." Lu Jieyi stroked his hair absentmindedly, "But... ah, let's not talk about it."
