Chapter 117: Things Are Really Not Right!

Editor-Agneya, Proofreader-Ghostie

When Ah Jian heard that his wife was being followed, he immediately devoted his 100% attention. Wordlessly, he grabbed a broom and went out to see who dared to harass his wife.

But even when Ah Jian went around the corridor and the hallway, he found no one suspicious.

So he could only go home and explain to Xiao Lan that the person had probably left.

.

[I’m really embarrassed to say this…..]

On the other side of the phone, Ah Jian sighed.

[In fact, I thought Xiao Lan was just too tired and nervous after being busy with getting married recently.]

The wedding house that Ah Jian bought was not very large, but it was a good location for commercial housing, the construction of the building was very new, the property was reliable, the community security was also doing a good job, there were security cameras everywhere, and residents had to swipe their cards to enter and exit. Even courier and takeaway service had to register before entering the building. There also had never been any instances of theft in the neighborhood.

After comforting his wife, the two packed their bags and went to bed, ready to leave early the next day to catch their flight.

As a result, that night, Ah Jian was sleeping soundly when he suddenly heard a scream from his wife.

He woke up from his sleep, followed the sound into the bathroom, and found Xiao Lan sitting on the floor in a state of panic, with her eyes wide open, staring at the window listlessly.

[I asked her what had happened.]

Ah Jian said on the other end of the phone.

[She told me that she saw a figure outside the window……]

He smiled bitterly and emphasized again.

[Can you believe it? She said there was someone outside the damn window!]

Ah Jian and Xiao Lan, this young couple’s new house was only seventy square feet, with a single bathroom. The bathroom had a window with frosted paper on the glass. Usually, only a half-finger gap was kept open for ventilation.

However, this was beside the point.

The point was that their home was on the eighteenth floor. Outside the bathroom window, there was nothing on either side except a vertical wall. There was not even a foothold the size of a palm.

Regardless of whether there was a small, courageous thief who would take such a huge risk to climb through the windows of this kind of high-rise building to steal, even if they dare to climb the windows, they must not be anything less than Spider-Man or Superman.

But since Xiao Lan said there was someone outside the window, Ah Jian of course did not dare to neglect, immediately pushed open the window and carefully checked.

Bei Quan asked, “Did you find someone?”

Ah Jian let out a sigh.

[Of course not.]

[There was absolutely nothing outside the window.]

[Not to mention some little thief climbing the wall, not even a night bird, a bat, or a flying insect was in sight. There was only the endless night and the south wind.]

At this point, Ah Jian was almost sure that his wife was nervous and even seemed to be borderline hysterical.

He hugged his wife for a while, telling her that there was no one outside the window, “You are absolutely wrong– look, the window is taped with frosted paper, even if there is really something you can not see that well ah.”

However, this time, Xiao Lan did not listen to his consolation.

Ah Jian said on the phone,

[She told me very firmly that she was definitely not wrong…..]

Xiao Lan pointed to the half-length mirror inlaid on the basin and told Ah Jian that she saw a dark shadow outside the window reflected on the mirror. She suddenly turned around and saw an eye through the gap!

Bei Quan interrupted Ah Jian’s narrative at this point.

“Did your wife say anything about what that eye was like?”

[Yes.]

Ah Jian replied.

[She said the pupil of that eye was a golden red…..]

He paused and further added.

[Like the eyes of a monster.]

Hearing this, Wei Fuyuan did not know whether he should sympathize with the caller, Ah Jian, or his wife, Xiao Lan.

If Wei Fuyuan had not happened to join the ‘Sāntúchuān’ broadcasting company by coincidence, he would have assumed that the girl was 80 percent insane, with the remaining 20 percent being the possibility that the girl was given toxic mushrooms or hallucinogens.

But since Ah Jian could get through to the hotline of ‘Sāntúchuān’, it proves that what they encountered must be related to Hui Gui.

“This…..should not be the Hui Gui peeking, right?”

Wei Fuyuan whispered to himself while glancing towards Jiang Nan’an, who was sitting next to him.

Jiang Nan’an was a chatterbox. The last time they listened to the hotline together, he had been babbling all the time, which made Wei Fuyuan feel distracted, and he was itching to gag the other party.

However, this time, Jiang Nan’an was clearly too quiet.

Comrade Xiao Jiang’s lips were pursed, his gaze was straight, and his eyes were staring at Bei Quan across the glass wall, seemingly wanting to see the other end of the phone through his microphone or headset.

Wei Fuyuan: “???”

He reached out and patted Jiang Nan’an’s shoulder.

Comrade Jiang immediately shivered as if he was electrocuted and quickly returned to his senses.

And Ah Jian’s narration continued.

[The next day, we went to the Maldives].

Xiao Lan had two scares in a row and was obviously not in good spirits, but instead of canceling their honeymoon, they took a ten-hour flight to the Maldives.

At that time, he only thought that his wife was just nervous because she was overly tired, and as long as she enjoyed the sea, the sun, and the beach at the resort and relaxed, she would soon be able to get over it.

But the following events spiraled completely beyond Ah Jian’s expectations.

[The first night we checked into the hotel, Xiao Lan told me that the eye was still following her.]

Xiao Lan woke up in the middle of the night, crying and screaming at the same time, she was completely in a hysterical state, struggling with such force that even a big man like Ah Jian couldn’t hold her down.

The girl’s ear-splitting screams and the banging noise from the room naturally alerted the guests next door, and soon the hotel’s manager knocked on their door with the security guard.

Ah Jian embarrassedly opened the door to deal with the interrogation. Unexpectedly, Xiao Lan rushed over and caught the manager at once, saying that the hotel room was unclean and haunted.

The manager was of Chinese-American descent and spoke poor Mandarin. He was so embarrassed and helpless that he talked them down and had to give them a new room overnight.

However, these series of strange events did not end there.

The first night passed without any incident.

The next day, the two of them followed the scheduled itinerary and went snorkeling in the coral reef area.

Under the blazing sun and warm breeze, Xiao Lan’s spirits did perk up a bit.

Snorkeling instruction was a one-on-one service.

Both of them were locals– tall, strong, good-looking, and very enthusiastic.

They taught the guests how to use a breathing mask and adjust the oxygen cylinder, and after explaining various precautions through a translator, they took the person into the water.

The diving and viewing time in the coral reef area was about 20 minutes.

During the whole process, the guests didn’t even need to move one bit, just required to click to follow and let the coaches lead the way.

If they saw something beautiful, and wanted to stop and enjoy it for a while, they could simply pull the instructor’s hand.

If you wished to take pictures or felt uncomfortable, there were corresponding gestures used to communicate with the coach subsequently.

[I was very worried about Xiao Lan, so I told the coach before I went into the water that I would not go anywhere else, and that we would always follow her.]

Ah Jian said,

[Then, I finally realized that something was not quite right…..]

At that time, he was less than five meters away from his wife. The sea water in that area was very clear, the sun was also very good, and the visibility was very high.

So when he saw Xiao Lan suddenly struggling violently, Ah Jian could not believe his eyes.

Ah Jian told Bei Quan with certainty that Xiao Lan and her coach were swimming in front of him in a completely open place, not only were there no other people around but there was not even a big fish or a reef.

But the girl suddenly fell down, and then inexplicably quickly sank as if a weight was hung on her feet.

Xiao Lan was terrified and began to struggle with her hands and feet, and the diving instructor who discovered the danger also grabbed her arm and tried to bring the person up to the surface.

However, a tall African-American man of 1.80 meter height could not move in the buoyant environment of the sea– as if what he was dragging was not a girl weighing less than a 100 pounds, but something equal in weight like bulk pig iron.

The diving instructor panicked and beckoned his companions to come and help.

Ah Jian and his coach quickly stepped forward, grabbing their arms and hugging their waists, trying to bring Xiao Lan up.

However, it didn’t work.

[I was really frightened at that time…..]

Ah Jian on the other end of the phone still seemed to have lingering fears.

[She was really heavy…Although I couldn’t see it, I think…She seemed to have something else hanging on her…Something very heavy…]

During the struggle, the girl’s oxygen tube loosened, a large string of bubbles gushed out, leaving her vision in a sudden blur.

Just as Ah Jian thought that his wife was about to drown, Xiao Lan’s body suddenly became lighter. It so happened that the two snorkeling instructors worked together, one left and one right, and they jumped out of the water with a ‘swoosh’.

Xiao Lan’s life was saved, but the girl was scared out of her wits.

She said she didn’t want to stay in the Maldives, crying that she wanted to return home today itself.

Ah Jian was also quite frightened, and after experiencing the strange and unexplainable weight himself, even a staunch atheist like him had to admit that certain things couldn’t be passed off simply by using terms like ‘nervousness’ or ‘momentary illusion’.

[And…..]

Speaking of what made him feel scared, Ah Jian’s voice subconsciously lowered.

[When we were leaving, the African-American diving instructor of Xiao Lan asked the interpreter to pass us a message……]

After a distinct gulp, he then said.

[He said that the guest was just possessed by an evil spirit…..]

In a soft voice, Bei Quan asked.

“So, what do you think?”

[I originally did not believe in things like ghosts and gods at all…… but…..]

Ah Jian gave another bitter laugh.

[But now, I have no choice but to believe in it!]

He began to sound agitated, and there was a tremor at the end of the sentence.

[A month after that, it hardly stopped!]

[Host, to tell you the truth, we’ve never had a day of peace since!]
