Chapter 787 Blind Box
A moment later, "I didn't hear it either." Jiang Cheng said.
Wang Qi's face darkened, "Neither did I."
"Brother Fugui, it seems. It seems that you were the only one who heard it." Huai Yi couldn't help but feel worried.
"It's the kind of ticking, ticking." The fat man raised his head and quickly explained: "It's quite clear. How could you not hear it?"
Fatty was the only one who heard this, and the biggest possibility Jiang Cheng could think of was that he was being targeted by ghosts.
“Don’t panic.” Jiang Cheng comforted, “Listen carefully, can you hear the location of the sound?”
“I, I don’t know, the sound is very clear, it seems. It seems to be It's coming from all directions, everywhere," the fat man said while breathing heavily, looking around.
Hearing this, Wang Qi stretched out his hand, covered the fat man's head, and whispered: "Don't be nervous, close your eyes, and feel it again."
The fat man followed what Wang Qi said, He closed his eyes, and after a moment, his body began to tremble, and he said excitedly: "I, I saw it, it's over there, it is."
"Don't open your eyes! Use your fingers to show us." Wang Qi reminded.
The fat man stretched out his hand and pointed in one direction, "There, that's right."
"Huh——" Wang Qi retracted his hand, nodded and said, "Okay, you can open the door "My eyes are broken."
Jiang Cheng looked at Wang Qi a few times, and finally walked in that direction with a few others. When they turned a corner, a relatively hidden door appeared in front of them.
"The sound of dripping water comes from here." The fat man stared at the door and said as if to confirm.
As soon as Jiang Cheng touched the door, the door opened by itself before he could push hard.
The inside is brighter than expected, and there are some debris piled everywhere.
There are mops, rags and other cleaning utensils placed near the back of the door.
There are rubber tubes on the ground, rolled up in circles. At first glance, I thought they were coiled snakes.
Going inside, there is an old table with an orange life jacket and rubber gloves on it. There are two plastic chairs nearby.
On the hook on the opposite wall, a light blue work jacket with short sleeves was hung on a hanger.
This is an equipment room exclusively for swimming pool staff.
In the corner, they found a water pipe, which was connected to the hand faucet on the wall. Water was constantly dripping along the connection between the two.
The "ticking" sound that the fat man heard came from here.
The strange thing is that when they first entered the room, they could not hear the sound of water dripping.
But after discovering the dripping faucet, I could suddenly hear it, and it was very clear, with no transition at all.
It was like the hearing that had been deprived was suddenly returned to them.
This reminded them of the strange stories in the library.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Qi stretched out his hand and tightened the faucet. Now there was no more water dripping, and the sound of dripping disappeared.
Before they could take a breath, there was suddenly a sound that they were all too familiar with. When they heard the sound, several people immediately walked out.
It was a sound of water.
Just outside!
Someone is swimming in the pool!
Leaving the equipment room, several people rushed to the swimming pool. The moment they turned the corner, they all saw that there was a little different color in the originally dark swimming pool.
There is light shining from the top of the swimming pool, and there is a little bit of light on the water. Some people are swimming far away.
Like a sword cutting through the water, white water splashed.
It was a woman, but she didn’t seem to be wearing a swimsuit. She was swimming with her back to them, her face always buried under the water, and only her back could be seen.
Jiang Cheng could see a little more clearly this time, but after noticing the woman's back, he couldn't help but froze, and his heart trembled violently for no reason.
Obviously it was just a vague back, or even just an outline, but Jiang Cheng felt familiar from the bottom of his heart.
And certainly, this person is very important to him.
Indescribably important.
The woman swam to the edge of the swimming pool far away from the people, and then came ashore.
Then, he walked in one direction and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
A few people followed without hesitation, and they now came to the place where the woman came ashore.
There were clear water stains on the ground. Following the wet footprints, they came to a corner. Behind the corner was a dark corridor with cold wind blowing outward.
"Damn, it's so cold." Huaiyi complained. He was soaked from the knees down at the concierge's place just now. Now the cold wind blows and it's biting.
Wang Qi stared at the corridor and said after a while: "There seems to be a women's shower room in front."
They came in from the boys' side and also passed through such a corridor. The layout is similar, but the difference is that it is not as cold, and the corridor on the boys' side is not so hidden and deep.
Looking at the current scene, several people felt more and more familiar. Isn't this the experience of the former male employee?
First I heard the sound, then I found the woman in the swimming pool, then I followed the woman to the women’s shower room, the next step was to go in, and finally.
But later, the development of the plot began to be different from what was expected.
They stood outside and waited for a while, but did not hear the sound of the shower inside. It was quiet inside. If they hadn't followed the footprints, they would have thought the woman had disappeared again.
"We." The fat man asked in a tentative tone: "Should we go in and have a look?"
After a while, the fat man looked towards the end of the corridor leading to the shower room. After hesitating for a long time, Then he said, "Why do I feel like she didn't mean any harm? She didn't hurt the security guard either."
"Would you like two people to go in first and have a look?" Huai Yi looked at Jiang Cheng and asked in a low voice.
"It's better not to say goodbye. If you want to go in, let's go together. If there are many people, there will be someone to take care of you." The fat man said.
A group of people walked through the long corridor. There was a table at the end of the corridor. There was a plastic sign on the table with a name written on it. It can no longer be seen clearly. There was also Jiangtan University swimming underneath. The red seal of the museum management center.
It seems that there is usually someone on duty here.
When I approached the shower room, it was relatively dark inside, but I could still see clearly the small cubicles.
There is no door. There is a translucent curtain at the door of each compartment, which can be rolled up when not in use.
The footprints disappeared at this point because the ground was covered with water.
It's not water accumulation, but water stains left and right. There are water stains everywhere, like those left after taking a shower.
A few people walked slowly inside, observing the compartments on both sides as they walked. They walked very slowly. Jiang Cheng had reminded them to pay attention to the water under their feet and avoid it if they could.
Some of the curtains were completely opened, but there were many that were not opened or were only partially opened. It was probably because some girls left in a hurry after taking a shower and did not pay attention.
However, this brought trouble to Jiang Cheng and the others. They needed to open the curtains one by one and check behind them.
After trying a few, Fatty felt that this was really exciting, just like opening a blind box. You might not know which one would reveal the ghost. (End of this chapter)
