On October 23, 2014, I received a call from the client. 3。

"Hello, Mr. Zhang."

"Well, hello. That thing ......"

"We are still investigating. The latest situation has been explained to you before. There are also several family members of the deceased who are difficult to contact......"

"Hmmm......"

"Have you been experiencing anything lately?"

"I ...... I've been out recently and haven't felt anything ...... anymore."

"You're saying that the weird feeling before is gone?"

"yes. The feeling I had before is gone. I didn't see the car again. I've ridden it myself a few times and haven't touched it again. That thing...... It doesn't seem to be staring at me anymore. ”

"That's right. So what are you going to do now? Because we haven't figured out how that thing behaves, there's no way to keep you safe. I'm so sorry. In this case, we may have to take a little longer to inquire about the situation. ...... your side"

"My dad talked to me for the past two days. I thought...... Some of his words also have a point. My mom is already like that...... Reluctantly, reluctantly, it can be regarded as a wronged head and a debtor...... Although I think it's too much. My mom didn't do anything either...... What you said last time also makes sense. Those things are not people, unreasonable. I ......"

"Do you want to stop the investigation?"

"Hmm...... On the one hand, because of the commission fee, and on the other hand, there is ...... My dad was also worried that I would not let go on like this...... It's a big deal that you don't have to share bicycles in the future, and it doesn't have anything to do with that thing. If I look it up again, I'm afraid...... That thing will come back again. Excuse me. Let you run for nothing. ”

"Nothing. It's our job. If you are ready, there are some contractual formalities to be completed on our side. Let's go back to Minqing now. ”

"Hmm. Excuse me. ”

On October 24, 2014, the investigation was discontinued. Result of the incident: The birth of a spirit suspected to be related to the shared bicycle, the pattern of its behavior and its image have not been determined. The incident was classified as "unfinished", and the keyword "shared bicycle" was set.

On January 9, 2016, Zhang Qing's death was confirmed.

The video is a surveillance video, with the monitoring location in the upper left corner and the time in the lower left corner. Date and time is January 8, 2016 9:24 PM. Judging by the surveillance, it is not an intersection, but a relatively secluded path. The dim street lamps are hidden in the canopy of tall street trees, the light is not bright, there are not many pedestrians, and there are few vehicles, and the whole road is full of shadows.

There is a row of shared bicycles parked on the side of the road, a total of more than 10 of them, look at the color, it is a fast bicycle.

Suddenly, a one-second snowflake screen appeared on the screen, leaving a distorted horizontal line in the center of the picture.

The video pauses, and the footage seems to be processed, but it can't be fully processed. The twisted horizontal lines are still there, but when the bikes are magnified, a figure sitting on the bike can be faintly seen.

The man had short hair and was wearing a winter down jacket with a gray top and a black bottom. Because the picture is distorted, the whole person looks like a cloud of muddy paint.

After a while, a man walked from the end of the road.

The man was circled in red to distinguish him from other passers-by.

I can't tell who that person is, but I can guess that this should be Zhang Qing.

Zhang Qing walked past the shared bicycle, stopped for a while, and then turned around and walked towards the row of bicycles.

His figure was also distorted by that horizontal line. I could barely tell that he should be pulling out his phone, unlocking it, and preparing to ride.

The figure sat next to Zhang Qing.

Zhang Qing pulled a car out and pushed it onto the road.

The figure jumped out of the car.

The screen flashed again.

Zhang Qing stepped onto the car, and when he was riding, there was a figure in the back seat of the car.

Surveillance footage captured Zhang Qing riding out of the road.

The video camera switched and was replaced by another surveillance footage.

Switched like this a few times.

Each time, a momentary snowflake screen will appear on the screen. As the figure entered the surveillance range, the distorted image slowly moved.

The place name and time on the monitor are constantly changing.

After a while, the video starts fast-forwarding.

Zhang Qing rode through one road after another, and he seemed to be getting more and more struggling, and the speed of the car was getting slower and slower.

The video suddenly entered the normal playback speed.

Zhang Qing made a head-twisting motion, unable to see his face clearly, but after turning his head, he desperately stepped on the bicycle. The speed of the car is getting faster again.

He began to turn frequently, turning when he came to a junction, staring at the path for a while, and after a while, he began to ride back on the road. There are a lot of right turns. When he encounters a red light, he always turns right immediately and keeps pedaling his bicycle all the time.

He seemed to be being chased by something terrible.

In the video, the figure can be seen sitting in the back seat of the bicycle.

Even if I couldn't see Zhang Qing's face clearly, I could imagine what he looked like at that time. It should be the same as the editors who fell into Guangyuan Mountain, fleeing for their lives in a hurry, not knowing what happened.

After riding for another distance like this, Zhang Qing seemed to be physically exhausted, and the speed slowed down again.

Before he could reach the next intersection, Zhang Qing stopped the car, shook his body a few times, and fell down.

The video screen flickered a few more times, and after the snowflake screen, it was the surrounding passers-by who gathered around Zhang Qing's side.

The twisted horizontal line was gone. The figure was gone.

End of video.

On January 11, 2016, it was confirmed that the cause of Zhang Qing's death was a heart attack.

————

When the file arrived, it came to an abrupt end. It's like halfway through a song, halfway through a story, there's no follow-up.

From the perspective of time, at that time, only Ye Qing and Liu Miao were left among the people in Qingye, and it was even possible that even Liu Miao was gone. Ye Qing has no time to take care of anything else, and there is no way to investigate Zhang Qing's death, which is also very possible.

And judging from this whole thing, the spirit related to shared bicycles is a little inexplicable. To use a human word, it is "moody". Why and how it kills people seems to be out of order.

It's a very different spirit than I've seen in the past.

Even what it looks like doesn't seem to be qualitative. It was not clearly captured by the surveillance.

I haven't seen many spirits, but there aren't many spirits in this world. That spirit should be more or less strange.

I usually don't have much time to use shared bicycles, I haven't specially registered an account, sometimes I need to, I directly use the shared bicycle plug-in attached to the payment software, and use my online payment account.

If you think about it, I didn't encounter anything strange when I used those cars. I saw those cars on the road, and I didn't seem to have seen any supernatural phenomena.

I still sent a message to Wu Ling and asked about it.

If it was said that Ye Qing didn't have the time and energy to investigate this matter at that time, now that three of Qingye's people have been rescued by me, with Nangong Yao, it should be easier to check that spirit.

Not long after the message was sent, Wu Ling replied to me that he understood.

I looked at the eyelid screen.

The video is also frozen in the last second. In the crowd of onlookers, Zhang Qing, who fell to the ground, curled up slightly and lay on his side on the ground.

I thought to myself, is it possible that tonight, I will dream of Zhang Qing?

Something has happened in the past two days. Today there are still only two watches. _(:3」∠)_

Good night everyone~
