  Chapter 1248 1248【It is reasonable for a haunted house to have ghosts】

 A dense group of bats rushed toward Kuroba Kaito and Nakamori Aoko. Before he really hit them, he quickly returned to the shadow of the roof.

 Among the bats, there is a huge shadow mixed in, like a demon coming into the world, fleeting and gone, with a terrifying momentum.

“Ah!” Nakamori Aoko was startled by the winged figure at first.

But soon, she came back to her senses, imitating Kidd's tone before and joked: "The 'shady wind' before was a blower, and the bat was controlled by a wire. It was no big deal - you must have wanted to say that." Right."

After a pause, she was a little confused: "But what's going on with the man with wings? I always feel that the path he flies is different from the path thrown by the wire... Is he playing the role of a vampire? But the shape of the wings feels different. Same thing, a vampire’s wings should be thinner, but this one is more like a bird’s wing, is it a crow?”

The light was too dark, and Nakamori Aoko actually couldn’t see clearly. But that fleeting shadow still made her vaguely feel that something was not right about the painting style.

 She looked at Kidd, waiting for the atmosphere destroyer to say something and answer her questions.

Unexpectedly, when he turned his head, he saw Kuroha Kaito staring at the place where the "bats" disappeared just now, without saying a word, with an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

Nakamori Aoko was startled for a moment. Affected by his attitude, she began to waver. She couldn't help but feel that the surroundings were a little cold: "What, what's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

  Kuroba Kaito: "..." Yes! It’s so wrong, nothing is right!

 That shadow, and those familiar pairs of wings... foggy dog? ! It's Kiritengu, right? It looks like him no matter how you look!

 —Kuroba Kaito’s eyesight is better than Nakamori Aoko’s. Moreover, he often works in dark environments, and often encounters foggy dogs in darker places than this... or is guarded by foggy dogs.

In short, even though it was only a moment faster, he still recognized the real monster mixed in the artificial bat at a glance.

"Hey, Kaito." Nakamori Aoko saw the subtle change in Kuroba Kaito's expression and became more and more panicked, "You can't see the reason? Could it be that there really is something in the haunted house..."...No, no, no, maybe it's Kaito. Because of his poor skills, he failed to see through this trap. That's right, how can there really be ghosts in the world?

Kidd was yelled by her and barely recovered from the shock of seeing the foggy dog.

He met Nakamori Aoko's confused and nervous gaze, laughed dryly a few times, and explained what was strange about him just now: "It's nothing, it's just that I didn't expect this haunted house to be so creative and use something that even I couldn't distinguish. Technique, ha, ha ha..."

While saying this, Kuroba Kaito couldn't help but rub his hair vigorously.

 I just feel that everything is gradually becoming difficult to understand.

Kidd: "..." Does the foggy dog... work part-time in a haunted house? ?

 How did he pass the interview? It's too dangerous.

What if one day a colleague from the haunted house thinks that the wings of the foggy dog ​​are cool and wants to take them and try to carry them on his back? If he pulls them, the secret will be exposed - in a place like the haunted house, a mutilated corpse is hung in the room. Liang, I'm afraid he won't be discovered for a long time...

 …

 Humans are, after all, creatures that are easily affected by the environment.

Kuroba Kaito moved his legs mechanically and continued to walk forward with Nakamori Aoko, while he couldn't help but imagine many terrible scenes in his mind.

He even began to pay attention to high places unconsciously - the legend of Wutiangou "likes to hang people in high places, dry them and eat them", as well as the two monks in Wutiangou's hometown who were actually hung, really impressed him.

 …

Nakamori Aoko walked forward for a while, gradually calming down from the panic just now.

I immediately felt that something was a little strange.

She turned back and glanced at Kuroba Kaito doubtfully:

Why did this guy become so quiet all of a sudden?

  Could it be that you can’t figure out the principle of wings just now and are concentrating on it?

 …Or maybe because you couldn’t figure out the trick, you suspected that there was really a ghost here, so you were frightened?

Thinking about it, Nakamori Aoko secretly laughed twice in her heart: Anyway, I can finally enjoy the haunted house with peace of mind!   …

The two of them walked through various organs with different moods and left this gloomy church.

Without Kuroba Kaito around to expose the modus operandi, Nakamori Aoko felt that the experience was great and wanted to give a few thumbs up to the employee who was flying around just now.

 Soon they arrived at the back door of the church. As soon as the door was opened, the scene just now reappeared, with cold wind and furry artificial bats blowing in the face, and the huge shadow mixed in also appeared again.

"ah!"

Nakamori Aoko is like a person riding a roller coaster. She knows exactly what will happen, but when encountering a thrilling section, she still can't help but instinctively close her eyes and scream.

 The cold wind and the fluttering sound of small bats brushed past her ears and disappeared quickly.

 Feeling that everything was over, Nakamori Aoko carefully opened her eyes just a slit. Seeing the empty corridor in front of her, she patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

 The bat disappeared, and the surroundings became unnervingly quiet. Nakamori Aoko turned her head and was about to tease Kuroba Kaito: Maybe after the scene reappeared, he still couldn't crack the wing employee's method, so he was shutting himself down.

However, when she turned around, she suddenly froze.

Behind him was the empty Senleng Church, and as far as the eye could see, there was no shadow of Kuroba Kaito at all.

 Aoko Nakamori: “…” Where are people, people? !

As soon as her companion was thrown away, she raised her head stiffly and looked at the naked haunted house where the tricks had been exposed again. She felt an eerie aura rising from the soles of her feet, and cold sweat quickly covered her back.

 Is this place... really haunted? !

As if afraid of disturbing something, Nakamori Aoko asked softly: "Is there anyone?"

 Suddenly there was a slight sound of feathers flapping beside him.

The tips of Nakamori Aoko's ears twitched slightly, and she turned her head suddenly, suddenly meeting a pair of dark golden eyes that glowed in the darkness.

"Ah ah ah ah ah-!"

She let out a scream of terror, jumped up, closed her eyes and rushed out, not knowing where she was running.

When Nakamori Aoko came back to her senses, she opened her eyes and found that she had run out of the corridor and entered the next room.

This looks like an old morgue.

The moment Nakamori Aoko looked into the room, the linen next to her slowly bulged, and a "corpse" slowly sat up, twisted its body stiffly, and looked at her.

 …

 “Corpse” is actually a little nervous now.

He is an employee of this haunted house and has been in the business for five years. Every time he scares the tourists who come in, they will pee and lose their armor.

However, today, when he listened to the feedback from his colleagues on the headphones, he felt that his professional level had been severely challenged.
