"What are you looking at again?" Bai Yunliu urged Wu Feishui irritably.

They had been searching around in this maze-like villa for the entire morning but found nothing.

Because of the special design of the villa, they went to the same room repeatedly many times. Every time they opened the door and saw the same structure, Bai Yunliu became more angry.

What Yan Chuan said was right. There were many rooms here, but most of them were dirty. It was obvious that no one had cleaned them for a long time. No one knew what had happened to them before. The furniture was scattered on the ground, as if they had been looted.

This man is a psychopath! Why does he need so many guest rooms in a nice house? Does he think he is running a B&B?

Bai Yunliu thought with great dissatisfaction in his heart.

Without Yan Chuan's consent, she raised her hand, pushed the door, and entered his master bedroom.

"This is not a good idea, Sister Yunliu." Wu Feishui still looked timid and she stared behind her timidly.

"How could a mother hide her child somewhere else just because she was angry with her husband, and even be so relieved that she didn't look for the child all night?" Bai Yunliu's thoughts were very clear, "The child must be near them, maybe hiding in their master bedroom."

Bai Yunliu still knew her limits. She did not search through the private belongings of the owner of the house, but only looked for a place where someone could hide.

After searching repeatedly without success, Bai Yunliu set his eyes on a strange large cabinet facing the end of the bed in the master bedroom.

The black and glossy wooden material makes the whole cabinet look heavy and mysterious.

Bai Yunliu gestured at the size - it was just enough to fit a person.

She ordered coldly: "Go and keep watch outside. Remember to remind me when Yan Chuan comes back."

Wu Feishui walked to the door hesitantly, looking back every few steps. Looking at her like this, Bai Yunliu could somewhat understand He Zhi's helplessness and disgust.

This girl seems really petty and has no opinion of her own at all.

Bai Yunliu knocked lightly on the cabinet door. It sounded dull, so it should not be empty.

She thought casually, was Wu Feishui like this before? She seemed to have accidentally heard He Zhi mention that there was a poor guy in their school who was always better than her in all professional courses, and his last name seemed to be Wu.

Although He Zhi is spoiled, her intelligence and pride are obvious to all. Would such a person choose a stupid, timid woman with only a pretty face to go out and play with him?

She had some strange thoughts in her mind, but before she could grasp the small line in her messy guess, the upper part of the cabinet was opened by her.

She stood there in a daze, stunned by the strange statue before her.

This wooden sculpture is about half a meter wide and long. The craftsman who carved it is obviously a master. He used his superb skills to depict a scene of a snake swallowing fiercely. An obviously very strong snake has its mouth filled with densely packed hideous snake tails, and it frantically eats all of its kind into its stomach.

This snake had a strange tumor on its head, feather-like flesh wings on its body, and its tail was covered with a sticky, soft, and thin membrane. The whole scene looked lifelike and realistic, making one's scalp tingle.

She couldn't help but curse inwardly that Yan Chuan was really sick - it would be bad enough that he had so many snakes at home, but he even had to put such a weird snake sculpture in the room.

She couldn't wait to leave, so she opened the cabinet below more roughly, wanting to take a look at what was inside.

But I don't think the child would be in there.

How could a child be locked up in a dark room for such a long time without crying or making any noise?

Only the dead can...

With a click, the lock on the cabinet made a crisp sound and the cabinet door slowly opened.

Bai Yunliu focused her eyes and saw the contents clearly. Her expression was blank for a moment, but soon she realized something. Her face turned pale and she staggered back two steps. She quickly covered her mouth and her scream was blocked in her throat.

Bai Yunliu had tears in her eyes and looked towards the door in panic. Fortunately, Wu Feishui did not move. Yan Chuan, the hateful murderer Yan Chuan... he had not come back yet.

There was too much blood in the cabinet. Even though it was more than half dried up, a few drops of sticky liquid still flowed onto the floor.

Bai Yunliu tremblingly went to get the tools, wiped the blood here, and then closed the door in an attempt to cover up something.

The shock to her mind was so great that she completely overlooked one detail - there was so much blood, but she didn't smell any blood at all.

Wu Feishui stayed in the room for so long but did not remind her of this.

"What are you daydreaming about?!" Bai Yunliu walked out in a hurry, only to see Wu Feishui with his head down, thinking about something absent-mindedly.

Seeing her come out, Wu Feishui looked up in a hurry. She stammered and explained: "Sister Yunliu, I have been watching... No one came."

Bai Yunliu's eyes were bloodshot and he looked distracted and a little strange.

Wu Feishui hesitated again: "Sister, have you ever thought that we have been walking for so long, but there is actually one place we haven't checked?"

Bai Yunliu's mind was already in a mess. She only hoped to find the child quickly and leave here before Yan Chuan discovered that she knew about his murder!

So when she heard Wu Feishui's new guess, she immediately asked, "Where? Where else haven't you gone?"

"I remember... there seems to be an old man in Yan Chuan's family...? Do you think it's possible that a couple would send their children to the old man's house when they quarrel?"

Bai Yunliu was stunned, with surprise radiating from his eyes: "Yes, why didn't I think of that... there is an old man, he must be there, let's go... let's go there... I know where it is!"

As early as the first day they arrived at the villa, Yan Chuan introduced his father to them.

In the dim room, a white-haired old man, wrapped tightly in a blanket, kept wailing on the bed.

Yan Chuan explained that the old man's condition was very serious. He suffered from unstoppable pain and severe neurasthenia, so he was placed at the end of the second floor, farthest away from everyone else.

Bai Yunliu ran towards the old man's room regardless of anything, and Wu Feishui trotted after her. Behind her, where the woman couldn't see, her expression became more and more excited.

Arriving at the old man's room, Bai Yunliu let out a sigh of relief and knocked on the door.

She waited for a few seconds, but no one answered.

Extreme anxiety made her lose all her worries and she simply turned the doorknob - the door was not locked.

The room was still dim as usual, with a mixture of an unpleasant old man smell and a strange stench. Bai Yunliu was unaware of this. She walked into the room quietly and saw the old man lying on the bed, wailing in pain just like the last time they met.

"Old man, I'm looking for your little grandson. May I ask if he was sent to you by his mother?"

When the word "mother" was mentioned, Bai Yunliu looked back uneasily. Yan Chuan did not appear, but the other person who was supposed to follow her was also nowhere to be seen.

——Why hasn’t Wu Feishui caught up yet? He’s so slow and annoying!

Bai Yunliu's mind was in a mess and she could hardly control her divergent thoughts.

The old man didn't respond to her and continued shouting something on the bed.

Bai Yunliu sensed something stirring under the quilt in which he was wrapped tightly, and he could not help but take two steps forward.

"Old man, the child's father is very worried about the child's safety." Bai Yunliu lied calmly, which she thought was absurd. "If the child is with you, please let him go back to his father as soon as possible. After all, the child hasn't eaten for a day..."

"Hehe... Hehe..." I don't know which words touched the white-haired, wrinkled-faced old man in front of me, and he actually started laughing, which was uncharacteristically his style.

Bai Yunliu stared at him with an ugly expression, feeling that this old man had some mental problems.

"Don't... don't worry about my grandson... he's not hungry..." The old man panted and said these words intermittently.

"How can you take care of a child when you have difficulty moving around yourself?" Bai Yunliu was puzzled and his face darkened.

Her time was limited, and she didn't want to engage in a boring conversation with a mentally disturbed old man.

So she quickly stepped forward, suddenly pulled open the quilt that the old man was wrapped tightly in, and wanted to grab the child out and take him away.

"Hehe, hehe..." The old man laughed even more happily when his quilt was removed. Instead of getting angry, he laughed even more happily.

As Bai Yunliu expected, the youngest son was indeed in the old man's quilt. This was also the first time she saw his appearance with her own eyes.

——The little child had a body covered with disgusting snake skin scales. Apart from the outline of a human, he was basically no different from a snake. At this moment, he was lying on the body of another huge dark green snake, eating its flesh and blood to his heart's content.

Bai Yunliu looked up along the huge snake's body with a stiff gaze - where the snake's head should have been connected, there was only a white-haired, wrinkled male head.

At this moment, "he" was laughing heartily. The strange "chuckling" laughter was getting louder and louder, more and more shrill, shaking his entire ugly body.

"My grandson... hehe, he's not hungry at all... hehe..."

Bai Yunliu shook his head and took one step back, two steps back... until he touched the cold door.

She turned around in panic - she didn't know when the door had been closed tightly. She shook the doorknob twice anxiously, but the door didn't move at all.

She is trapped here.

Bai Yunliu was extremely panicked and drooling profusely. She kept swallowing, trying to call for help and escape.

She had countless ways to survive, but at this moment, her impulsive brain made her grab the baseball bat at the door and chop it hard at the young monster.

The dark green juice splashed out, and the young child was severely injured. He rolled from under the bed to the ground, crying silently twice.

The strange laughter in the room stopped abruptly, and the head embedded in the huge snake turned slowly and looked at Bai Yunliu coldly.

Under Bai Yunliu's horrified gaze, the monster with a human head and a snake body began to tremble violently. Dense bulges continued to appear under his skin and flesh, as if something was struggling restlessly inside.

Finally, the stuff found an outlet in the piece of flesh that had just been gnawed off by the young child, and a bunch of colorful long snakes gushed out.

The old man's snake bodies became increasingly shriveled. When all the snakes had crawled out of his body, only a thin layer of snake skin was left connecting his old head.

Looking at the snakes that almost covered the entire room, Bai Yunliu discovered in despair that the snake repellent ointment on her body was ineffective. Those disgusting creatures pressed towards her little by little, overwhelming her.
