Mrs. Winter sighed again, regretting the young man's suicide.

"That's a good kid, a little introverted, but he has never done anything to hurt others. He is very kind, and sometimes he shyly greets us and cares about our bodies. In the Reina family, he is the only one who is a good kid. The others... ..." Mrs. Winter shook her head.

"After he died, the house was empty. Someone was supposed to inherit it. Rena was just sentenced, and his other children... I don't know where they went. In short, they never came back. Even Rena, who was sentenced, was said to have died in prison. Because he was missing, there were many rumors that they were dead, that they were hiding in the house, and that something bad happened to them... that house. , and voices. Children's, dogs', old Rena's... I also saw Jimny, that good boy. His soul also stayed in the house. Soon, some bored young people came to the house. Come explore.”

When Mrs. Winter mentioned this, she looked dumbfounded.

"They actually didn't find anything, they just found it interesting. There were more and more people like this. People from the TV station also came. The Reina family soon became mysterious... Oh, by the way, my people from the TV station came. I asked them about it. The youngest daughter of the Reina family was probably alive. She seemed to be the one spreading the news. She told a lot of things and made up stories about their great-grandfather. That house became a famous haunted house. I was actually quite scared, and I felt sorry for little Jimny. I was afraid that someone would find out that I was also a ghost... I would keep an eye on the house and call the police immediately if someone entered."

Mrs. Winter smiled slyly and winked at us.

"I thought you were also that kind of person. But...but after calling the police, I realized something was wrong." Mrs. Winter stopped smiling, "There was something wrong with that house. In 12 years, the house should The owner changed. A young man named Charlie Jackson. He was cheerful, enthusiastic and full of energy. He was different from the introverted Jimny, but he was also a good young man. I just came back from abroad. The house was bought from a friend abroad. The friend was preparing to immigrate and disposed of various assets in the country, including the Reina house, which he bought from other places. The house. It might be the name of the eldest son of Reina's family who ran away due to gambling debts... I can't remember. He probably sold the house and it fell into the hands of Charlie's friends. Sold to Charlie Jackson. When he came, he didn't know that the house had become a famous haunted house. He directly found someone to repair the house and moved in soon. During that time, people in the neighborhood were talking about it. After everyone got acquainted with Charlie Jackson, they learned what happened and told him about the house.”

What Mrs. Winter said was completely different from what we had heard from the Jacksons.

Mrs. Winter also knew about our doubts. She had also seen how the Jacksons moved in at that time.

She smiled and said, "I know, you see it differently. But back then, it was like that. Charlie Jackson didn't believe in the existence of ghosts in this world at all. He lived in that house and integrated into our community. I can see Jimny's figure appears at the window of the house. Sometimes, Jimny is the only one looking at Charlie Jackson. I often don't worry about him at all. After moving in, people still came here and knocked on the door to find out where Rena's house was. Jackson put a sign at the door telling everyone that the house was Rena's house, but it was not haunted and had a new owner. Sometimes, he will entertain young people who come to take risks. When he encounters rude young people, he will also drive them away. It seems that he and Jimny get along well with each other. ”

This story doesn't sound like a ghost story at all.

"A year later, Charlie Jackson met a girl, and they got married. A year later, they got a big dog. The dog was a puppy born from the girl's original dog. They drove to the girl's house specially to spend time together. When I came back over the weekend, I brought back the puppy. I still saw Jimny from time to time, but Jimny had no ill intentions towards them. On the contrary, I couldn’t hear the strange noises from Reina’s house for a long time. Hearing that weird sound. A few years later, when Jackson had a baby, I would see Jimny standing in the nursery, looking at the baby."

Mrs. Winter laughed at herself, "I'm overthinking it. Jimny likes children very much, and he also likes the big dog. The big dog seems to be able to feel Jimny. Sometimes, it will stare at Jimny."

A happy family coexisting peacefully with the original ghosts in the house sounds sweet.

"The first time the situation occurred was in 2018 or 2019. The little daughter of the Reina family came back." Mrs. Winter changed the topic, "The person who came back was not a human, but a ghost. She suddenly appeared at the door of the room. At that time, Jackson was not there, only his wife and the newborn child were there. I saw the girl at home first. She probably didn't know that the house was gone. It had been sold, and it had been owned for a long time. She rushed into the house and was stopped by Jimny. I don't know what they said. The girl was very angry and kept screaming at her. The wife thought something was wrong with the dog, but there was no way to stop Jimny. "Mrs. Winter held the cup and lowered her head. She came back several times and seemed to want to do it." What. I heard her say that it was her home and she should live there. She also said that she wanted to live in a haunted house. It might be a bit fanciful. The protagonist of a century-old horror story. She thought it was cool. Jimny stopped her a few times. She didn't hurt the Jackson family, but it caused trouble to the Jackson family. She didn't believe it at first. These people thought that the legend of the haunted house in Reina's house was just some young people who were bored. She had lived here for many years...I heard that her hometown was a declining city because of the decline of the city's main industries, and it became a ghost town. Some people moved away and committed suicide. But later, the city gradually revived, and people moved into the houses where people had died. She didn't care about this at first..."

Mrs. Winter said regretfully: "There is no way... Jimny chose to kill his sister... He chose to let the Jackson family return to a peaceful life. It was probably from that time that I began to understand the child's thoughts a little bit. Very Unfortunately, this calm did not last. Just a few months ago, the second incident happened.”
