A Guest In A Ghost House Chapter 86 The Previous Lover 10

"Well, I... What are you doing?"

I didn't know what to say, so I asked with nervous.

The lifeguard carefully looked at me with no words. The skinny boy pushed his gla.s.ses up, "We're just wondering when you showed up. We didn't see you just now."

Well, I thought they were wondering if I was a ghost or not. They did not see me just now, how could I explain that I appeared in a sudden?

Everyone focused on me, and I smiled bitterly: "Will you believe what I said if I told you I have been here all way through? I arrived here earlier than all of you guys, and I said h.e.l.lo to you just now."

As expected, they looked at me with doubt eyes. Fortunately the boy made a fair remark: "He has been there all the time."

They looked at each other and then started to doubt the boy as well.

"Well, we are going to call the police as soon as possible. Any comments?" I suggested. I gave up to explain anything anymore, It was better to keep away from the group than kept on explaining to them. No body could tell who was the ghost after all.

My words reminded everyone, they started busying for connecting the police. Everyone's mobile phones had no signals. The door could not open. As for the window, it was open, but it was at least 5 to 6 meters high from the ground.

"There's a landline in the office. Maybe you can get it through." The lifeguard spoke, he pointed to a dim pa.s.sage in front.

It was a staff pa.s.sage which appeared long in the dim light and looking a little scary in the present atmosphere.

"Let's go." said the fat boy.

The fat boy glanced at the body that was still floating in the pool. He swallowed his mouthfuls to urge us, we all knew how scared he was.

The crowd agreed with idea, and decided to go to the office to call the police. But some people obviously suspected me and the boy, they asking us to go ahead.

To be honest, I didn't really want to do so. Lu Lu and Xiao Lingdang were in the corner of the pool. Although I couldn't to them, I felt relieved if I could see them. It would be much safer here rather than went to the dark pa.s.sage, I'd rather stay here with three bodies.

But I had to go. For one thing, Wu Ting's words were very clear, only when I found the ghost, could I save myself and everyone. We might find some clues if we went to the office. For the second thing, now that everyone agreed, if I might be regarded as the ghost if I dared to go against them. I saw the skinny boy secretly put something behind him as a weapon.

I walked with the fat boy in front, one meter away from him. Such a distance allowed me to give reaction if something really happened. For the rest, they kept three meters away with me. I walked very slow, always trying to focus on the group behind me other than the dark pa.s.sage in front.

The pa.s.sage was very common, except for the dim lights. Along the long pa.s.sage, there were white way without many doors. Perhaps the swimming pool was damp around, the walls were damp too. A lot of places on the walls are a large chunk of the invasion.

The pa.s.sage was reverberated by footsteps, and n.o.body knew how long we had walked. As we walked by a door, the lifeguard told us to stop, and then motioned me and the fat boy to move back off. It seemed to be the so-called office, and sure enough the lifeguard took out a string of keys and opened the door directly.

Then he reached into the room to find the switch of the lamp inside. After a while, the lifeguard said: "The lamp doesn't work. It's so strange. It is still fine this afternoon."

The words of the lifeguard kept me in a tight mind. The dark office was like a monster that opened its mouth, waiting for us to fell into.

The lifeguard took out his mobile phone, and lighted up inside the room, then made a way for me and the boy.

I did not take the phone with me, and I could only see the room with the light of boy's mobile phone. The office had windows. Now it should not be too late, but the office windows were dark. Not even moonlight.

All these made me more alert, and since the door of the office opened, a lot of things had gone awry.

The office was large, lined with rows of desks and chairs, looking as neat as a cla.s.sroom. Many items on each desk, neatly or cluttered, looking like someone was using it. At the end of the office, there was a sofa, a red phone was on top of the small table by the sofa.

The phone was obvious, no need for the lifeguard to point it out, we could see it at a glance. The boy and I walked slowly towards the phone. Not knowing if it was my hallucination, I always hear a faint sound of water droplets.

"Di, di, di". The closer the phone, the clearer the sound of water droplets was. This was not my illusion, and my heart suddenly woke up. Was Wu Ting here?

"Did you hear the sound of the water?" I looked at the phone in the distant light and said to the boy.

"Well, yes." The boy nodded. But he strangely looked at me. It was just the sound of ordinary water droplets. My reaction was a little big.

There was no way to explain to the boy, but my pace was getting slower and slower, and the lifeguard a few meters away had heard me, with a bit of hurry in his voice: "The water cooler is broken and the water is dripping all the time."

I said an "well", but I was more alert to the lifeguard because it seemed that the lifeguard was deliberately explaining the problem to me.

When we got near it, the boy's mobile phone's light turned to the clear sound of water drops, and there was a water dispenser. As the lifeguard said, dripping slowly into the tray, the tray was full, and it was flowing down the water dispenser. A small pool of water had formed on the ground.

Although the boy's light quickly turned to the phone, I still saw that. The water dispenser was empty, and at least there was no water in it from my position.

"Your water dispenser is running out of water, and you're not going to fix it." I asked the lifeguard tentatively in a playful tone.

Lifeguard said: "It's none of your business. Go."

Well, I didn't find out any information, I didn't found any clue at least. When the boy heard the noise and he light up to the water dispenser. I saw some black thing floating in the bucket on the water dispenser this time. It looked like human hair.

The boy probably saw it too. The light didn't leave the water dispenser, and the teeth began to quiver. "What's in there?"

Several beam of light from mobile phones lighted to the water dispenser at the same time. In the strong light, the black things floated in the water dispenser became clearer. That was a few long hairs.

A few screams came from the group, and everyone became a little panicked. The lifeguard roared, and calmed the surroundings, and then walked to the water dispenser and looked carefully: "What's strange is that. It's just that the bucket gets dirty."

The lifeguard finished his words, panic slightly reduced. I subconsciously kept away from the water dispenser, I meant the lifeguard next to the water dispenser. And then picked up the landline, directly turning on the hands-free, calling the police.

The phone was through. There was a female voice over there, but the noise with the current was inaudible, and the boy looked a little excited and came up to speak loudly about the address and the situation, but it was obvious that the other side could not hear our voice. After a noise, the other party hanged up the phone.

At this time, the fat boy was no longer worried about how I appeared, coming up, pus.h.i.+ng me away, and then picked up the phone to dial a mobile number. This time, it was a male voice, but the phone call was with a huge sound of electric current, we could not hear clearly. Even the fat boy cried loudly, but not causing the other party's response. Soon, the telephone hanged up.

The thin boy and I both tried once, and the results were the same. There was no way to communicate.

Looking at the lifeguard who is still standing in front of the water dispenser and blocking the water dispenser: "You try it too."

The lifeguard said, "You can't get through. What else do I try?"

"The phone doesn't work." I said.

"It's been a while."

As soon as the lifeguard finished, the fat boy cried and yelled, "Since you know it's broken and why you let us come to do it."

The thin boy came a little closer to me. I looked at him subconsciously, and he looked at me too. The eyes behind his gla.s.ses seemed to blink. The child was very calm and seemed to find something wrong. Yes, since the lifeguard knows the phone was broken, so why did he bring us to this office?

Moreover, the lifeguard's blocking in front of the water dispenser kept me on my guard.

"Sometimes the phone works, but sometimes it doesn't, and I'm taking a chance, too." The lifeguard tried to explain.

The fat boy felt a little angry, he walked toward the lifeguard as if trying to question him, but he was pulled by the skinny boy, who looked at the lifeguard and said, "Are there any other phone calls?"

"Let me see." The lifeguard said, as if really thinking, lowering his head, not speaking.

Didn't the staff here knew where there was a phone? I thought the lifeguard was a little strange, but at first the lifeguard's reaction at the pool was quite normal.

I was a little puzzled, and I could only maintain a point of vigilance, to see the situation.

The lifeguard seemed to think of something. "There must be a phone in our supervisor's office."

The people all looked at each other, and then I asked, "Where is the supervisor's office?"

The lifeguard pointed to the direction behind us and almost all of us turn around. Indeed, there was a black door not far behind us, but there was no sign.

Why there was a black door. I was very strange, because I never seen any black door either private enterprises or government departments I have been to.

I felt cold in my heart, when I noticed that all the people were watching the door. We could only vaguely see the lifeguard puts his cell phone on top of the water dispenser in the dark.

"What are you doing?" My voice was so loud that a few lights shot at the lifeguard at the same time. The lifeguard was muttering to himself with his hands crossed, facing to the water dispenser, but the voice was so low that it seemed to be completely silent.

The lifeguard was startled by my voice, running into the water dispenser, shaking the water dispenser to the left and right. His cell-phone also falling on the ground, making a "bang" sound, and then the light went out.
