Abner glanced at her hand, and said: "It happened that we came to stay that night. You didn't want to cause trouble, but Jingbei's temptation was very strong, so we finally let us stay. When you come to dispose of the corpse , but forgot about this 'dead soul soup'."

Christo raised her chin and said, "Do you think I have the ability to remove the corpse in a short time?"

Abner chuckled, "Isn't the man next door the one you hoped to be your father?"

Christophe's expression changed.

Abner continued: "There is an inconspicuous mountain lotus bud on the neckline of Newt's shirt. I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but then I thought that such a secret place must have ulterior motives, but Beverly obviously couldn't do it for Newt. Special embroidery of this mountain lotus, the rest is you. And you are the daughter of the owner of this 'wild mountain lotus', just a bud of a mountain lotus."

Christo stared at Abner closely.

Abner opened the door and said, "You said that this room is not for living outside, and it is used for emergencies. I don't know what is an emergency, but at least people don't live there often. But..."

Abner pointed to the broken carpet in the corridor, and said: "The carpet at the door is very worn out. It can be seen that people are often walking around. Who lives in this room, Christo?"

Christophe's breathing became more and more rapid.

Abner narrowed his eyes and walked towards her: "The bottle of dead soul soup has been reduced a lot, is it used on this person? If so, how long has this person been dead? Why do you want to keep this person?" dead body? How did you escape from being tracked down by the Wraith Envoys?"

Christo's breathing became more and more rapid, her clenched fists were shaking all the time, as if she was enduring some great pain, and finally she shouted: "That man is my biological father!"

Abner was taken aback for a moment, and then thought for a while, as if everything could be explained.

Christophe's father, the boy Newt was talking about, had traveled for more than two orders and hadn't come back yet. Others thought he was too playful, so he was dead, but why did they keep the dead body without telling the ghosts?

Christo's chest heaved violently, her eyes were bloodshot, and she said slowly: "I really want to hate them! Why did they give birth to me! A blue and yellow daughter is a defective product of the Creator! But ... I can't hate, I know they love me, even though they always quarrel, even if they take their anger out on me, but they will spend their little savings to satisfy my wishes, I won't go home They don't dare to sleep... I know I shouldn't complain, I shouldn't be resentful, but I'm really suffocating, I'm about to collapse, I'm caught between them, trying to do my duty as a daughter, I'm really fast collapsed……"

Christo choked up, and she was completely different from the mean and indifferent look in the morning.

Abner originally thought that Christo would tell about the death of his biological father, but he didn't expect it to be a vent. It seemed that this would be a long narrative. Abner and Oreas sat down and waited for Chris much ease.

After a while, Christo's mood seemed to calm down. She took a deep breath, looked at Abner and Oreas, and said, "You must have heard that my parents are not soul mates, but They got together despite all difficulties and opened this 'Ye Shan He' shop at the same time, in order to prove to everyone that their union will be as strong as a mountain lotus, but the fact is that since I can remember, they have often argued over small things, but It will be reconciled soon. The first thing I do when I get up in the morning is to open the window to see if my mother is watering the mountain lotus at the door. If I can see her holding a water bottle, it is a peaceful and happy One day because it means they don't fight at night. They fight in the morning and they always make it up at tea in the evening and I always remember my dad holding me in his lap and saying 'Krystal, that's the beauty of love You are the fruit of our love, how much we love you'... But at night, they still repeat the same mistakes.

"Later I found out that my mother's soul mate was Uncle Newt, and I learned to be angry with them. Whenever they quarreled, I threatened them that I would run to Uncle Newt's house. I knew that Uncle Newt was one of their hearts. Thorn, a few times I actually went to Uncle Newt's house and they looked for me like crazy, and when they found me, they put me in their arms and kissed and cried and I swear I never I never regretted it as much as I did back then, and I said to myself, why should I worry them when they love me so much? Make them so sad? So I never went to Uncle Newt's house again, but it made me feel worse. I'm trapped in this hotel, forced to listen to their arguments, but I can't hide anywhere, I know if I escape, they will be sad, and their sadness will make me even more sad, so I might as well hold it in my heart. "

Abner frowned, he didn't expect this indifferent girl to have such strong emotions.

"Then they quarreled more and more, and it was no longer possible to make up at the evening tea. Sometimes they could go on for two mornings, or even five mornings. My father decided to go out and came back less and less. , my mother misses him very much and waits for his return every morning, but as soon as my father comes back, she will argue with him again, and my father is discouraged, and he will go out again after a while. Until one frame ago, my father asked Traveling again, my mother refused to let him go, and the two had a big dispute, which caused many guests to watch. Although my mother let my father go, she tricked him back at night, and my father went crazy. In order to hide from others, my mother locked him in this room and emptied out all the other guests on this floor."

Abner looked around the room, but he didn't expect Beverly to do this in order to lock up his partner.

"Until the fire broke out..." Christo paused, looking at the black scorched marks on the corridor wall, "I knew my father really wanted to leave, he pulled me painfully and begged Me, to help him escape, but when I turned back to my mother, she hugged me again and said in pain, she couldn't live without her father. I couldn't make a choice until the fire broke out. It was an accident, mother I bought a lot of sackcloth and piled them in this corridor to decorate the guest room, but a small candle instantly turned the place into a sea of ​​flames. At that time, my mother and father were arguing in this room, and I pretended that nothing happened as usual Hearing that, I sat next to it and had a snack. It wasn't until I heard the scream that I realized that the fire had scorched the door, and the fire was coming in through the hole, burning the closet and clothes next to it.

"At that moment, I seemed to be stupid. My father and mother stopped arguing. They were stunned for a moment, and immediately pushed me out through the small rear window. I stood blankly among the weeds in the messy backyard, looking at the dilapidated building. The hotel was submerged in a sea of ​​fire. Until the sound of fierce quarrels woke me up, I saw my parents in this room avoiding burnt cabinets, tables, curtains... Even so, they were still arguing constantly. At that moment, I even gave birth I thought badly, I wanted to close this last window, so that I would be clean. However, I soon realized that they were not arguing about trifles, but who was arguing about who would go out first.

"The only exit from the whole room is this small window, but even I can barely get out. It is impossible for my father to get out, and it is also difficult for my mother. In the end, my father ignored my mother's fierce resistance. , forced her out of the window, the moment my mother came out, my father was already submerged in the fire, and his last gesture was to push my mother out with both arms outstretched. When we put out the fire, When he saw his charred body, he still stretched out his arms."

Speaking of this, Christo paused for a long time, her voice choked in her throat, as if she couldn't continue.

Abner sighed softly, watching the sky outside the window gradually darken, the noise of the tables and chairs above had already stopped, and now it was replaced by noisy voices and messy footsteps.

"It was Uncle Newt who reopened our business and kept the secret for us and got us the dead soul soup. I really appreciate Uncle Newt, I said to him, if you were my father That would be great, but in fact, I can't forget my father. My mother dripped the dead soul soup on my father so that his body would not rot, but he burned so badly that as long as he moved a little, his whole body would burn. His flesh was melting and falling down, my mother wrapped him up completely, and he still kept his arms outstretched."

"In fact, how much I want to get close to him, but how scared I am. His eye sockets have no eyeballs, and his bandages are rotting. I dare not approach him, but he is my father. Later, I passed by this room, seeing my mother dancing with my father, I couldn't believe my eyes, can you imagine? My father's stiff limbs were moving, lifting, and lowering, and my mother was sinking her arms around his neck, It was as if my father was alive. I asked my mother in horror what the hell was going on and she wouldn't tell me except that they could be together forever.

"How happy was her expression at that time, and how terrified I was in my heart. I stumbled and ran to Uncle Newt's house, and knelt down and begged him to live by my side. I couldn't leave my mother, but I really couldn't bear it. That's all. Uncle Newt has been worn down by our hotel, but he still agrees to come over. My mother naturally disagrees, so I put him next door, because firstly, I am not afraid of him speaking out, and secondly, the One room was already unoccupied, and my mother insisted on getting the last of the poor Uncle Newt's money. Naturally, I would not let Uncle Newt suffer such a big grievance. I tried my best to help him wash clothes, sew clothes, secretly I want to refund the rent to him, but, alas... I don't know how long we can hold on..."

Chris was silent for a while, and said: "I think I've finished what I can say. I'm sorry for making you listen for so long. This is the first time I've said so much at such a young age."

Abner looked at the moon outside the window, and the faint red light came in from the small evil window, and sprinkled on Christo's thin body.

Abner took a deep breath and asked, "Then, don't you know why your father can move?"

Kristo nodded, "My mother didn't tell me the reason. Anyway, since that time, I have often seen them dancing. Uncle Newt and I moved my father to my mother's room last night, but in fact there is something wrong with her room. There is a storage room next door to this room."

Christo pointed to the wall at the end, and Abner was stunned. He thought this room was the end, but he didn't expect that there was a storage room at the end.

"They were also dancing last night, but after hearing my conversation with this gentleman, they stopped." Christo said.

Abner looked at Aureas, Aureas has not spoken, at this moment his eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about other things.After seeing Abner's puzzled eyes, he said, "You fell asleep at that time."

Kristo took a deep breath, forced a smile, and said, "I will go to Shuhun to dispose of my father's body, but today is the anniversary of my parents' marriage, so please invite the two of you to this final ball."

It would be unkind for Abner to shake his head.

Christo leaned away first, while Abner and Oreas walked upstairs.

"What are you thinking about?" Abner saw that Oreas had been silent.

Oreas's eyes were deep, his brows were furrowed, and he said slowly, "The bone of the Son of God is on the corpse."

Abner was taken aback, "Because the corpse can move?"

"Yes, not only that, Beverly put her partner's undead in the Bone of the Son of God, and only put it on the corpse when dancing, so that it escaped the inspection of the soul-destroyer."

Abner was silent for a while, and said, "Go and talk to Beverly after the dance today."

Oreas nodded, his frowning still did not relax.

Abner asked, "What are you worried about?"

Oreas looked at the dark corridor behind him, and said: "The undead do not recognize people. They will only be obsessed with the cause of their own death, find someone to possess, and harm others. Undead usually find weak-willed people to possess, But back in my own body... I don't know what's going to happen."

Abner looked at Aureas, and Aureas clenched his hand.
