Chapter 54: ghost

Luo Jian decided to help his uncle find out the real spy who was spying secretly, and put it into action the next day. He began to follow his uncle 24 hours a day, and followed him from morning to night after eating and sleeping. The behavior was crazy, but Luo Jian's parents hadn't seen his son for a long time and thought so badly that they overwhelmed him and let Luo Jian go.
Although Luo Jian and his uncle did not like to wait 24 hours a day, they did not explicitly refuse, so following this, Luo Jian did find some problems.
Luo Jian and his uncle usually work at his own shop. He is a little older, and his movements are inflexible. So he hired a student working on holidays to help him look at the shop. It ’s not that much to share. Look at the book, raise flowers, raise grass and canary, and live a pretty leisurely life.
Luo Jian followed for a day, most of the time in the store opened by his uncle. He walked around specifically and found no particularly strange people or things. Luo Jian still believes in his intuition. Although he must be counted, he has not experienced many battles, but people who have experienced life and death always have such an incredible temperament, and can see through the amazing nature of a thing. They themselves couldn't tell what it was like.
Nothing happened in the morning, but in the afternoon, Luo Jian noticed some unknown anomalies, and he found that someone was spying on his uncle, or, more precisely, the uncle's shop, and that person The hiding method is very good. Although Luo Jian felt the kind of sight and the kind of being watched from the dark place, Luo Jian could not find the specific position of the other party.
It's just that Luo Jian is not particularly worried, because in the sight quietly passed from the dark, Luo Jian does not feel malicious.
However, it's not always good to be stared at by people like this. Luo Jian thought about it and decided to find a way to hide this secret watcher. He greeted his uncle, and left the uncle's shop alone, and then walked along. Walking along the pedestrian street all the way, at first he still had the feeling of being watched, but after walking some distance out of the store door, the feeling disappeared.
Luo Jian hopped on a bus and walked around this small town. He went back and forth to the door of his uncle's shop. I found a public seat on the side of the road and sat down, holding a novel I didn't remember which bookstore I bought, pretending to read a book, but looked around secretly.
Sitting in a chair for about half an hour, Luo Jian secretly counted and found a total of four suspicious targets. Uncle's store is directly opposite the restaurant. There is a man sitting next to the door, and he looks at the store from time to time, but Luo Jian observes him for a while and finds that this man may just be thinking about whether to enter the uncle. Buy a pack of cigarettes in the store.
Of course, this is just speculation.
The second suspect is a young woman who has been walking around the street. Luo Jian saw that she had walked on and off this street several times. Of course, she might just walk back and forth while waiting for someone.
The third one is a little boy with an umbrella. He looks eleven or twelve years old and stands under a red street lamp at the street. He keeps staring at Luo Jian's uncle's shop door. Generally speaking, children give it to people. Vigilance is the lowest, but the child's eyes look a bit strange, and the strangest thing is that he actually took an umbrella in this fine sunny day, and could not help Luo Jian to pay more attention to him.
The fourth is also the most suspicious, because this person Luo Jian seems to have seen before, the back is familiar, the tall man in a black suit seems to be about the same age as Luo Jian, with his head down and a hood on his back. With a big guitar bag, he was sitting on a public seat on the side of the road like Luo Jian. Although he didn't watch the uncle's shop door from time to time, he still sat there motionless.
Luo Jian thought about it for a while, and felt that it was no way to drag things on, so he stood up and walked towards the man with the guitar bag.
The man seemed to notice Luo Jian's approach, but did not give any response, and still lowered his head. The hood of his clothes was wide and the brim covered his half face. The whole man looked very quiet. It wasn't until Luo Jian walked in front of him that the man responded-he raised his face slightly.
But just a little bit, Luo Jian still couldn't fully see his face, all he could see was the other person's thin lips and chin, and the outline was sharp like a knife.
"Anything?" The man spoke first, and surprised Luo Jian, who sounded a little familiar.
"I want to ask you something."
"Yes, ask."
Luo Jian brewed for a moment and said straightforwardly, "Are you monitoring the shop at the street?"
The man seemed to be laughing, with a slight radian in his mouth: "Why am I going to monitor a shop?"
Luo Jian let out a sigh of relief, and replied, "I'm sorry, I'm wrong."
When Luo Jian finished speaking, he turned around and left, but just took a step back, and the man behind spoke out, as Luo Jian expected: "Do you believe what I said so easily?"
John paused, took a deep breath, and looked back at him: "So, tell me, who are you?"
"Who am I?" The man shook his head. "I don't know."
"What do you mean? I don't understand." Luo Jian frowned.
"Looking at your appearance, I guess it is also one of the secret room players." The man suddenly burst out amazing words.
Luo Jian was startled by him immediately, hesitating for a moment: "How do you see?"
"Because you can see me."
"Huh?" Luo Jian was even more surprised, and asked, "Can't other people see you?"
"Of course I can't see it, because I'm the ghost of the back room." The man said something that Luo Jian couldn't understand, which puzzled Luo Jian. He couldn't help asking: "The ghost in the back room, what's that?"
"The player who signed a lifetime contract with the Chamber of Secrets." The man replied Luo Jian: "Player who is always wandering in the Chamber of Secrets and deprived of the right to 'return to reality' is called the 'Ghost of the Chamber'."
"Ghosts cannot 'return to reality' ... Ah, in fact, they can go back, but they will be deprived of their existence and they will become like real ghosts. Others cannot see you or hear you, even if you do it. Interfering in the actions of others, and no one notices the anomaly. "
For the first time, Luo Jian felt that the secret room was full of many things that he didn't understand. He was the first to hear about such a "ghost in the secret room". Uncle boss hadn't explained it to him before. Luo Jian didn't consciously want to know more Many, so he simply sat beside the man and asked him, "Can you tell me more?"
"Of course it can, and it's not valuable information."
"What's the matter of signing a lifetime contract with the back room?"
"Lifetime contract, the secret room will fulfill one of your wishes, any wish, but at the cost of losing the opportunity to 'escape.'"
"An opportunity to escape?"
"Yes, escape, forever escape the back room space, no longer need to go through those suffocated narrow spaces, and truly return to reality."
Luo Jian was amazed and looked at the man inconceivably: "What is the wish? Let you rather pay such a great price?"
The man seemed to laugh again and shook his head: "I don't remember."
"Don't remember?" Luo Jian didn't quite understand, wondering, "Do you remember such an important wish?"
"Lifetime contracts will deprive players of their" reality ", and what I experience in the real world will be gradually forgotten by me, and that is what happened when I was relatively young. I was still young at the time." The man said, " What I want is probably realized long ago, but I have been in the back room for too long, and many things have gradually forgotten. I have no chance to escape forever. The only thing I want is to live. "
"How long have you been in the back room?"
"It's been nearly two decades. I first came into closet space at about ten years old, and I'm ... more than thirty years old this year." The age of the man did not match his appearance, at least Luo Jian looked and felt that he Just a young guy in his twenties.
However, after spending twenty years in the back room, what kind of concept is that? Luo Jian will go through two or three secret rooms in a month, and for twenty years ... This makes Luo Jian startled and said, "Oh my god, how many secret rooms have you experienced?"
"That's why I said, I can't remember."
"Then why do you monitor my uncle's shop?"
The man paused, and turned his head slightly to look at Luo Jian. The wide brim was pulled down a bit. This time, Luo Jian was able to see the man's face clearly, his appearance was good, and his appearance was extraordinary, but this face looked More familiar, Luo Jian looked at the other side for a long time in amazement, and seemed to guess something in his heart, and couldn't help but be in a mood.
The man just turned his head and looked at Luo Jian ’s uncle ’s shop and said,
Is that your uncle ’s shop? Nothing, it ’s just your uncle ... I seem to know before, right? I think No more, I thought, if I look more at people I know, I will remember some of the past, but it seems to be useless. "
The amazing imagination in Luo Jian's mind gradually took shape. He suddenly grabbed the man's wrist and asked, "Do you remember your previous name? The name you used in the real world!"
The man was stunned for a moment and glanced at Luo Jian: "Forgot."
Can't be confirmed? Luo Jian gritted his teeth, and he reluctantly asked: "Do you remember your home address in the real world?"
"forget."
"What about relatives and friends?"
"forget."
"What have you done? What about important people? People you admire?"
"Useless ... I have forgotten it all."
Luo Jian suddenly reached out to the uncle's shop door and pointed at the uncle sitting inside: "Then why do you think my uncle is familiar?"
The man was silent for a while and smiled, "It feels familiar, but it doesn't mean I remember."
The man looked back at Luo Jian again and said, "Don't forget me too. If it was your uncle, then you probably have something to do with me, but I won't think of you. I'm the ghost of a secret room, a ghost It ’s the dead. In this world, I'm already dead. "2k novel reading network
