Chapter 58: The Ghost in the Mirror
"Li Qing, has Sister Hui been to the bathroom in this room?"
"When she came back, she went there once and then changed rooms."
‘Could it be Sister Hui’s own prank?’ Lin Jinghao thought to himself.
He walked into the bathroom again. At this time, there was no water vapor in the bathroom, and the grimace on the mirror had disappeared, leaving only the word "Xiao Fu" written in red with tears. Lin Jinghao opened the door under the washbasin.
In the cabinet, a piece of soap with obvious red fingerprints on it appeared in front of him. Lin Jinghao stared at the fingerprints carefully. The fingerprints were slender and slender, and they should be a woman's fingers.
Lin Jinghao closed the cabinet door and walked out of the bathroom.
"Let's go find Sister Hui." After Lin Jinghao finished speaking, he walked directly outside.
Sister Hui's room was not far away. When I got closer, I found it was quiet and there was no sound at all.
Lin Jinghao motioned to Li Qing to knock on the door. After a while, the door finally opened. Sister Hui stood in front of the door with a sleepy look on her face: "Why are you all here so late?" Seeing people from the troupe following behind, Sister Hui
Some seemed surprised.
"Sister Hui." Just as Lin Jinghao spoke, the class leader's voice sounded behind him.
"We'll talk after we get in first, we'll talk after we go in first."
The class leader led everyone directly into Sister Hui's room, regardless of whether Xiao Hui agreed or not. He didn't want the "scandalous matter to be publicized".
"Close the door." After everyone came in, the class leader immediately ordered the people behind to close the door.
"Xiao Hui, I know you feel uncomfortable after being frightened today, but you can't use the same method to scare the people in your troupe."
"Class leader, what are you talking about? Why are you scaring them?" Sister Hui looked confused. It seems that the class leader already knew very well who did this.
"Sister Hui, just admit it. Did you draw that grimace on the mirror?"
"What's that grimace? You seem to be the police. Don't the police need to provide evidence?" After Lin Jinghao finished speaking, Sister Hui was obviously unhappy.
"Xiao Hui..." The class leader was about to speak, but Lin Jinghao stopped him.
"Can you stretch out your hands and show us?" Lin Jinghao already had a plan in mind.
"Just watch, I'm afraid of you." Sister Hui stretched out her hands.
At first glance, you can see that these are a pair of women's hands that have been taken care of regularly. They are slender and slender, white and clean, and have a faint fragrance of skin care products.
"Sister Hui's hands are very clean. How many times have you washed them?" Lin Jinghao smiled after looking at Sister Hui's hands. A person who had just experienced extreme fear was still so happy to take care of his hands.
This is a problem in itself.
"Three times," Sister Hui blurted out.
"You don't care how many times I wash my hands." Sister Hui seemed to realize that she had said the wrong thing and immediately added.
"Although you washed off the red marks on your hands, you forgot to wash off the red marks on the soap, Sister Hui."
Lin Jinghao's seemingly casual words clearly made Sister Hui panic, and her expression suddenly changed.
"What soap? Don't talk nonsense."
"The soap is still under the washbasin. Do you want me to get it for comparison?"
"Xiao Hui, why are you doing this? Do you still think our troupe is not chaotic enough?" Seeing Xiao Hui still arguing, the troupe leader said with a sad face.
"Chaos? Hasn't this theater troupe ever been in chaos? There are fewer and fewer people attending operas now. What everyone is thinking about all the time is how to sing the leading role. When you are frightened and frustrated by ghosts
, no one cares about you, instead they all snicker behind your back, and even on the way back, everyone is still discussing in front of you in front of you how to play a "Bloody Mary game" to see if it is real.
So terrifying!
Now you are scared and know how I feel. What else do you want to know? You also want to know if Xiao Fu died for me? I tell you, Xiao Fu died because of you. You are the one who excludes him every day.
, laughed at him, saying he was a fool, a 250-year-old who overestimated his abilities. When he was dying, he no longer blamed me, he complained about you, and you are the real murderers!"
Xiaohui screamed at the top of his lungs, shouting like crazy, which moved everyone present, and the room became deathly silent.
"Okay, that's it for today, no one should mention it anymore. Owner, I'm really sorry for making you laugh." After a long time, the class leader spoke, finally breaking the awkwardness in the room.
"If nothing happens, let's go." Lin Jinghao stood there, not knowing what to say. Seeing this, Li Qing pulled his clothes from behind, indicating that Lin Jinghao should leave.
"Yes, yes, let's go first." Lin Jinghao smiled awkwardly, turned around and followed Li Qing out of the door.
"Brother Jinghao, what do you think is going on? It's so hard that I haven't even slept yet."
Lin Jinghao walked slowly. He didn't know how to comment on this matter. It can only be said that in the face of reality, it is difficult for everyone to maintain her roots.
"Go back to bed early, don't think about it anymore." What else can Lin Jinghao say? The matter of seeing ghosts in the mirror has been solved, but the matter of Sister Hui seeing ghosts in the mirror earlier is still unknown. What happened to Hui?
Sister, you can't set up traps to scare yourself!
After seeing off Li Qing, Lin Jinghao returned to his residence. Looking at the sky outside, it was completely dark.
‘I hope Xiao Fu in the mirror won’t appear again tomorrow.’ Lin Jinghao could only pray silently.
The next day, when Lin Jinghao and Li Qing came to the small theater again, Lin Bo had already arrived early with the theatergoers.
"Has everyone in the theater troupe arrived? Uncle Lin."
"We arrived early, we are all preparing in the background."
"I'm going to go backstage to take a look, in case something happens again today." Lin Jinghao said hello to Li Qing and walked directly to the backstage.
The lights in the backstage corridor were still very dim, but Sister Hui's dressing room was extremely bright. Lin Jinghao walked to the door. It turned out that all the people in the theater troupe were gathered together in this room. Sister Hui and Xiaoxian were in front of the mirror.
They are all putting on makeup, but one is wearing male makeup and the other is wearing female makeup. It seems that they are getting ready to go on stage together.
"Where's Dong Yong?" The only thing Lin Jinghao didn't see was the actor who played Dong Yong.
"Tell me, Xiao Ming, I don't know why he went crazy yesterday. After you left, he just sat in a daze. Then, he ran out in the middle of the night, saying he was sorry for Xiao Fu and the others, and he hasn't come back until today. So, I
I want the two sisters to appear together. Since Xiaoxian has also played a niche role before, let her replace Dong Yong."
"Then I'm all ears," Lin Jinghao looked at the two women in front of the mirror. It seemed that after what happened last night, the two of them had completely given up their old grudges, and they started talking and laughing.
"Nothing happened today, right?" Lin Jinghao pulled the class leader aside and asked in a low voice.
"I think it should be okay. Xiao Fu knows that everyone respects and loves each other so much now, so he should forgive everyone."
"As long as it's okay, then today you can have a good listen to 'The Husband and Wife Return the House'. Lin Jinghao said while humming with movements.
"Look in the mirror." With an exclamation, everyone rushed to the mirror. Lin Jinghao was startled, "Xiao Fu won't appear again."
"I'm so happy to see everyone loving each other like this, like a family. This is what Xiao Fu wants to see."
"Here is also: 'Please forgive me for pretending to be a ghost and scaring everyone.'" A line of words appeared on the two mirrors at the same time, which was completely different from yesterday's horror. Today's message seemed particularly warm and harmonious.
"Xiao Ming, come out here and stop playing your clever tricks." Lin Jinghao suddenly shouted loudly.
"Xiao Ming? Isn't it Xiao Fu?" Lin Jinghao's inexplicable cry frightened the class leader.
"Xiao Ming, if you don't come out, I'll call the police." Lin Jinghao didn't know why he suddenly said such a 'bad guy', and he couldn't help but laugh.
"Don't call the police, aren't you the police?" came a reply from the opposite room, it was Xiao Ming's voice.
"Xiao Ming, what are you doing? Everyone is waiting to go on stage? Come here quickly." The class leader couldn't help shouting when he heard Xiao Ming's voice.
"Master, Sister Hui, Xiaoxian, I'm sorry, I scared everyone." When everyone turned around, Xiao Ming was standing at the door with his head lowered.
"If you have anything to apologize to everyone, please tell me."
"It was me who pretended to be Xiao Fu's ghost in these two mirrors. I originally just wanted to scare Sister Hui so that Xiao Xian could play the role of the Seven Fairies, but I didn't expect so many things to happen."
"Is it really your kid who is responsible for this?" After understanding this, the class leader shouted angrily.
"Xiao Ming, tell me, what's the mystery behind this? Last night, the dark figure I saw was you, right? You want to take advantage of the opportunity to dismantle your trap, right?" Although Lin Jinghao guessed it was
Xiao Ming did it, but he still didn’t know how Xiao Ming operated it.
"This is actually very simple. The big owner must have seen it yesterday. The hole in the middle of the two mirrors is hollow. In fact, they are mirrors, rather they are two pieces of glass. I used invisible materials to draw on the back.
Then, I installed a movable wooden board inside the hole.
Then I put a silver thermal insulation film on the wooden board, so that when the wooden board is pressed against the two pieces of glass, they become ordinary mirrors. Then, I installed a remote-controlled purple light inside the hole.
When I pressed the remote control..." Xiao Ming said, taking out a homemade remote control from his pocket.
"When you press the remote control, the wooden board will retreat and the purple light will light up, so that the invisible pattern on the back of the glass will appear under the purple light. Xiao Ming, you are really a talent." Lin Jinghao said sincerely
said.
