The people in the closet

This is the seventh time that Tian Tian was late this month, but the reason she gave me was ridiculous. As the head of the department, I really can't hide it for her

"Tian Tian, it's really hard for me to do this. I have covered for you several times before, but the company has company regulations. If you go on like this, we really can't keep you. "

We are an advertising company, which is not too big in this first-tier city, and has been in a state of survival in the cracks. The boss is very young and started his business after 1980. He is my college classmate. A few years ago, when this guy started his business, he saw that the story I wrote was not bad, so he pulled me in and gave me some shares to be responsible for the company's planning and copywriting. I just plunged into this pit when I was idle, and now I can't climb out if I want to.

"Viagra, even you don't believe me?"

Tian Tian looked at me with a face of injustice, tears swirling in her eyes.

Speaking of Tian Tian, I personally interviewed and recruited her. The little girl just graduated from the north, and it is not easy to come to this southern city to struggle alone.

Her writing style is very good and her brain hole is very big, which meets our requirements. I turned her into a full member less than fifteen days after the probation period.

A few months after joining the company, several cases she was responsible for were also a bit red in the advertising circle of this city, and the official WeChat account of the company was more concerned. To tell the truth, as a newcomer, she is already very good.

"Have you watched too many horror movies recently?"

I doubt what she said. After all, she is very young and lives alone. It's normal for her to think at night.

Besides, this horror joke is too old-fashioned.

"I really heard a voice in the closet, as if someone was scratching at the door inside, and as if someone was crying, I was so scared that I didn't sleep all night."

Her obvious dark circles prove that she did stay up late, but it doesn't prove that what she said is true. After all, there are thousands of reasons for staying up late. What if she just stays up late to catch the play and can't get up in the morning?

"How to prove it?"

I'm a little impatient with this nonsense and want to end this conversation.

Unexpectedly, Tian Tian took out his mobile phone and opened a software.

"This is what I recorded last night. Listen to it. "

Tian Tian pressed the play button, and then I heard an incredible recording.

Crying is like a child, sometimes weak, sometimes strong, accompanied by the scraping sound of the door, just like someone locked in a coffin and buried alive, frantically struggling to escape.

And that cry was mixed with a little unwillingness besides pain.

"Don't be afraid, I will protect you."

Xiao Pang, the editor who has always had a crush on her, heard that Tian Tian's family had such a thing, and offered to go to her house to help her catch ghosts. As the leader of Tian Tian, in order to find out the truth and clear her name, I naturally want to go and have a look. Anyway, I also called Mr. A, the photographer of the company, and asked him to take a DV just in case.

Several of us divided by three times and five times, and turned the wardrobe she said upside down, except for a few cockroaches who suddenly jumped out and scared Xiao Pang to death.

The wardrobe is empty.

"It's not really a ghost, is it?"

A gentleman lit a cigarette and was a little worried.

"Have you ever seen quarrelling? Kayako climbed out of the closet! "

"Undead you! Mental derangement! "

Xiao Pang made a gesture with Kayako's crawling posture, and Tian Tian kicked him angrily.

"I looked it up on the Internet, and this sound may be caused by thermal expansion and cold contraction between gaps in wooden furniture."

I tried to calm Tian Tian's anxiety.

The wardrobe in front of us has been around for several years. The wooden foundation makes it look very simple, without fancy carving or complicated structure. It's just a flat door with a floor mirror one person high. But there is an unspeakable strange smell inside and outside.

"Why don't we stay here tonight? It is better to find out. "

"Yes, no problem!"

Xiao Pang agreed to Jun's proposal to spend the night at the goddess' house without hesitation. I guess just thinking about him will bring me to orgasm.

"Is it appropriate?"

I'm still worried. After all, it is always embarrassing for us three big men and a little girl to squeeze into this room.

"Never mind, you can sleep in the living room."

Hearing that we are going to accompany her tonight, Tian Tian's heart, which has been hanging, fell.

A jun puts the DV in the bedroom, with the angle just facing the wardrobe, and monitors it at any time.

The three of us were playing on the living room floor, and the pesticides were opened together.

Tian Tian is watching American TV in her bedroom.

Today's luck is not very good. We still keep losing, and the other side beat us into dogs. Matches are probably poisonous. In order to avoid too much loss, I retired and brushed Weibo alone. Nothing happened during this time. I yawned and felt very tired.

I don't know how long it took, but the sound of scratching at the door woke me up.

The voice came from Tian Tian's bedroom. I wanted to look up and see what was going on, but I found that my body couldn't move at all.

A very depressing breath came to my face. I feel my neck is gripped tightly and I can't breathe. My head is like a heavy object. I want to cry. There is an infinitely deep black hole below me, which has been dragging me down.

But the sound is getting louder and louder, which makes people feel uncomfortable, like scratching their hearts. Mixed with the knocking at the door is a faint sobbing, which is very light, but if you listen carefully, you will find that the voice seems to come from a child.

The voice recorded by Tian Tian proved to be true.

I noticed that the two people lying next to me were motionless and slept like dead pigs, as if they didn't hear a sound at all. There is no movement in the bedroom, which means that Tian Tian is asleep, too. Damn it, I'm the only one awake and suffering from this fear.

I tried my best to keep myself calm and finally caught my breath. I fantasized about all the gods in my head, from Tathagata in the west to Altman in Japan. I pray for blessings, just for quick relief.

"fuck!"

I let out a cry and sat up like a spring. I finally broke free from this nightmare and sweated profusely.

I paused and found that the two guys next to me were sweating like me.

"I was crushed by ghosts."

"Fuck, me too."

That night, all of us heard the sound in the closet, but the four of us, including Tian Tian, were pinned down by ghosts and couldn't move, so we all thought each other was asleep, and only we were going through this horrible process.

Strangely, there wasn't even a ghost in that DV, let alone the sound we heard.

We pulled the landlord off the mahjong table that day.

"What happened to your family?"

"Are you hiding something from us?"

"You'd better be honest!"

……

We pressed the landlord with all kinds of questions, which made the landlord very chaotic.

At first, I asked a friend to help her find a house in Tian Tian. I thought everyone was young. She just graduated, so I can help her if I can. And I also want to cultivate a capable person to share the pressure of future work, so I am more or less selfish. And in this city with an average price of 4 1000 yuan, a single room with one room and one living room is as lucky as in 2000 1 month.

But I didn't think it would help

"I did die in this house before."

The landlord, with bare arms and legs crossed, looked disdainful.

"If you don't want to live, you can move out. I won't refund your money anyway. "

"Why?"

"The contract is written in black and white. You can sue me if you refuse to accept it! "

Tian Tian was wronged by the rogue landlord's appearance. Xiao Pang rushed up to start work, but I held him back.

"Don't make trouble, Wang Ge. We are all friends of Chen Mian. What can't be said? My brother has been impulsive since he was a child. Never mind. "

I smiled and lit a cigarette for Wang Ge. It's not good for him to be such a scoundrel when he sees me like this.

"In fact, I didn't mean to lie to you, and I couldn't help it."

Wang Ge smoked a cigarette and looked at us helplessly.

About four years ago, a family lived in this house. The child has just entered the first grade. Men run projects outside and women work in clothing stores. From time to time, men love to beat women, children cry, neighbors call the police many times, and it is useless for the police to come.

One night, a man lost money in business, and he was as drunk as a fiddler. He quarreled with a woman when he didn't agree. In a rage, he grabbed a hammer and threw it at the woman's head. The child was so scared that he hid in the closet in his bedroom.

After the madness, the man found that the woman's head had been smashed like a smashed watermelon, and her brains flowed all over the floor. He was so desperate that he jumped off the balcony on the ninth floor.

The next day, after the police came, there was no trace of the child, and there was nothing in the closet. After monitoring, it was found that no one came in or out after the man entered the door that night. There was only one smashed body downstairs, and the child disappeared out of thin air in this house. The police couldn't explain it, so they had to put the child on the missing list.

This is Wang Ge's bad luck. After this incident, he had to redecorate the room and erase all traces of murder. He hopes to rent it out by luck one day. As time goes on, this tragedy is gradually forgotten by people. Finally, a foreigner moved in, but after living for less than a week, he packed his things and ran away, without even bringing a deposit. He told Wang Ge that the house was haunted.

Since then, Wang Ge's house has never been rented out, but he is a gambler by nature. He lost a lot of money playing big cards and needed a sum of money badly, so he had to reduce the rent of the house to half of the normal rent, hoping to take the bait.

I didn't think we'd actually deliver it.

"I have taken all my money to pay my debts. You can do it according to your own judgment. You want it, you take it. "

Wang Ge put out his cigarette and returned to a rogue country.

There's nothing we can do about him. Half a year's rent is a dumb loss, because there are no laws and regulations that stipulate that haunted houses cannot be rented. After all, this is an atheistic country.

"Let's burn it."

Only by finding the essence of the problem can we finally solve it. The wardrobe is haunted, so I made this decision.

Xiao pang drove, and the four of us pulled the wardrobe to the suburbs and found a clearing. Pour a bucket of gasoline on the wardrobe and set it on fire. I also asked A Jun to buy some paper money. After all, the misfortune of this family is really embarrassing.

"Wocao, why are you burning this?"

Xiao Pang saw Jun throw a big bag of Wangwang ice cream into the fire.

"Ghosts are people who change, and children naturally like to eat what children eat."

Jun is laughing.

The sun is already halfway down, and the four of us are standing in an unknown place, guarding a flaming wardrobe. The atmosphere is strange and absurd, just like the believers who are performing sacrificial ceremonies.

We'll take Tian Tian home. It's already midnight. I'm really tired after a busy day. Because there is no elevator in this community, it is almost fatal to move this wardrobe down from the ninth floor.

Hardly had we sat down on the sofa when a scream came from the bedroom. We rushed in and everyone was stunned by what we saw.

The wardrobe is intact in the old place.

That night, we found a hotel in the company and four people crowded into a room. Nobody wants to be alone, and nobody wants to go back to that house.

We had a tacit understanding and didn't mention it again. It seems that we have been sweating for a long time, and it has never happened to move the wardrobe to the suburbs.

After all, everyone who tells this story will think that we are crazy.

For seven days in a row, Tian Tian slept in the editing room of the company, and always had nightmares at night, saying that the children would come to see her. The whole person was depressed, like a frosted eggplant.

I told her to stop thinking about it and we'll find a way to get her to find another place to live.

Under my persuasion, the boss finally agreed to find them a big house in the name of the company and let her share it with several colleagues who rent a house outside. Xiao Pang naturally joined the sharing team.

We drove the company car to help Tian Tian move. When we saw the wardrobe again, the strange feeling still lingered in my mind. But the thought of never seeing you again after moving home makes me feel a little more relaxed.

Everyone divided by three times five, and in less than half a day, Tian Tian's things were moved downstairs. The height of the ninth floor is still very tired.

We were about to drive to our new home in Tian Tian when Tian Tian suddenly remembered something.

"Wait a minute, I didn't take the necklace."

"A necklace, forget it, I'll give it to you!"

Xiao Pang wants to take this opportunity to close his relationship with Tian Tian.

"No, my mother gave it to me. It's okay. You wait for me here. I'll be right down. "

Tian Tian said out of the car and goes to the apartment. Looking at her back, I'm a little uneasy.

Ten minutes passed and no one came down.

Xiao Pang called Tian Tian, but no one answered.

"Wait, maybe she's still looking."

I calmed Xiao Pang's nervous mood.

Twenty minutes later, no one came down.

Xiao Pang rushed out of the car, and I followed.

"You call the police!"

Colleagues in the car were shocked. After all, they have not experienced our affairs and are very surprised by our unexpected request.

Xiao Pang kicked the door and shouted Tian Tian's name.

There is no one in the room. Xiao Pang and I looked everywhere, but it was still empty.

Only the wardrobe stood there, watching us like ghosts.

I dialed the telephone of Tian Tian, but no one answered the other end.

Xiao Pang shouted Tian Tian's name crazily in the room.

Suddenly, vaguely, I seem to hear the phone ringing in the closet, which is very weak.

I flung open the closet.

There is nothing in the closet.

The police rushed to the scene. After searching, they found no trace of Tian Tian. After monitoring, they found that Tian Tian had never come out since he entered the room. A living man disappeared into a house out of thin air. After the follow-up investigation was fruitless, the police had to put her on the missing list.

I haven't seen Tian Tian since.

I gave my wardrobe to a friend, and I don't think I will use it again in my life.
