[Comprehensive British and American] I open a haunted house in the superhero world

Only after looking at the map did West realize how short a shortcut he had taken to walk up the mountain.

If he wanted to return to his previous position, he would have to make a big circle at least, not to mention passing through at least three blocked areas.

Yes, different animals occupy different lots, and the occupation is king.

His area is occupied by a dog...

yes, dog.

Not long after, West felt that not only was he afraid of cats, but he was also afraid of dogs!

This place really ruins the reputation of animals.

West still likes to call those beings animals instead of beastmen. For him, those animals are just animals, and they will not become humans just because they have human souls.

West let out a long sigh.

At this time Bella came over, and she handed West a piece of bread.

West looked up at her and gave her a friendly smile.

Bella blushed for a moment, then sat next to West.

Her father went to the farm, and West finally figured it out. The animals in this place didn't intend to directly drive humans to death, but fixed them in different places like raising livestock.

They don't keep these people in captivity during the day, but let them do daily labor and grow food. As long as they stay in their own designated area during the day, they are absolutely safe.

If he hadn't seen the town at night, it would be hard for West to imagine what this peaceful town would look like.

It never occurred to me that these animals also know how to develop sustainably.

"Thank you." Bella said to West after sitting down.

West said puzzledly: "You seem to have said thank you several times, what do you want to thank me for?"

"Thank you for bringing Mrs. Andrew back," Bella said.

West thought for a moment: "You mean that cat?"

Bella nodded: "Father doesn't want to admit it, but in fact Mrs. Andrew didn't want to become like that, and neither she nor us can control all of this. We may all become beastmen."

"You can call them animals," West said. "Isn't it wonderful to describe them as humans? Even if they have human intelligence, they are just animals."

Bella shook her head: "No, we call people just to remember that they used to be people, not animals."

"Can you tell me?" West said softly.

He encourages girls to speak out, not just because he wants to get news from it, but also because he finds that girls need someone to talk about too much.

Maybe not just girls, everyone in this town needs a channel to vent.

To speak their fears, to unleash their despair.

Yes, despair, in just over a day, West has already felt the despair of the city.

No one feels easy living where they are kept as livestock.

The girl paused for a second, as if organizing her words, and then smiled and said after a while: "My father always said that I am too pedantic, but I always feel that those beasts are not what I want. "

"Why?" West said, "Didn't they kill a lot of people you knew? And keep you as livestock."

"But they are also people we know." Bella said, "All of them were once our acquaintances, or relationships, and some were even relatives. And they will become like this, just because...just because they died .”

"Mrs. Andrew is a very gentle woman. She lives not far from us and has a beautiful British shorthair." Bella said slowly, holding her chin.

Mrs. Andrew, later Mrs. Cat, was not like that at first.

She used to be a very kind old woman, and the children around her liked her very much, oh, yes, and her beautiful shorts.

Mrs. Andrew has no children. In her spare time, she would take cat food to feed the stray cats nearby, adopt them, give them injections, and take them to be neutered.

For a long time, there were no stray cats running around in the town.

The town veterinarian once jokingly said that Mrs. Andrew fed him with a whole town of stray cats.

Mrs. Andrew is not the kind of person who adopts wild cats at will and does not take good care of them.

She will give those healthy and lively little cuties to the children of the neighbors, as long as they are willing to raise them,

And make an agreement with them that if they don't want to raise it one day, they will send it back to her, but they must not throw it away at will.

The vast majority of the cats that were given away were well cared for, and only one or two were returned to Mrs. Andrew in a few years.

And the old, disabled, and unattractive cats were really left behind by the old woman.

These handicapped cats were never the first choice of adopters, and Mrs Andrew would never force others to take them away.

She always said that the cats were not willing to have physical defects, it was just an unfair fate.

The only healthy cat she had was a British shorthair named Blue.

Bella likes Mrs. Andrew very much, and often goes to Mrs. Andrew's place to play.The little girl loves cats, especially Blue.

But Blue doesn't actually have a single part of her body that's blue, so she wonders where the name came from.

Only then did she know that Mrs. Andrew had a son, but her son died shortly after he was born because of a heart defect.

Mrs Andrew said her son died without a name and all she remembered was his blue eyes.

Bella always remembered her sad eyes at that time.

But not long after, tragedy befell the old woman.

Blue cat didn't know what went crazy, and suddenly ran out of the house, but was hit by a large truck passing by on the road outside.

While the old woman was looking for Blue, she was hit by another large truck in another place.

This incident happened almost at the same time. One person and one cat didn't know about each other's death, but they died at the same time as if they were destined by fate.

Not long after, Mrs. Andrew was buried, and the wild cats in her house became wild cats again, running away without knowing where they went.

"Mrs. Andrew has always been a very kind lady." Bella said sadly, "If she hadn't died...she must not be the one who would hurt others, so thank you, thank you for helping her get out."

She is really sad.

West also felt sad.

He remembered the words that the old man asked him and the way he looked at him when he hooked his finger for the last time.

The old woman actually knew she was dead, and she was thanking West for being killed herself.

If it was as Bella said, then maybe the animals in these places were forced to become executioners?

"I have a question." West said after a moment of silence, "You don't blame Mrs. Andrew for everything you said, so who is to blame for all this?"

Bella remained silent for a long time, she looked the same as Zach who couldn't talk about it.

When West thought she wouldn't say it, Bella said slowly: "I shouldn't have told you, no one in this small town can say the name of that person, she cursed us, Anyone who says her name will be hunted to death by animals, so everyone is afraid of her, but it all started with her."

"Her?" West remembered that Namonroth once said that an outsider came and started all this.

At that time, he thought about whether it was Xiao Gen, and later felt that it was wrong, but because Namonros insisted on not wanting to say it, so he didn't ask any more, so he didn't continue to ask.

"It was the mayor's son who died first," said Bella, "and one of the victims now, both he and his son."

"Is that the villain who ordered you to hand over the animal carcasses to be free?" West asked, "That's really a shame."

Bella nodded: "I digressed. I continued. At first, the mayor's son died, and he was very sad. It just so happened that a person and a woman came here at this time. She wore strange clothes and looked a bit like a medieval witch. She Tell the mayor that as long as his son is buried in the pet cemetery, his son can be resurrected. There have been rumors that the cemetery can be resurrected in the town for many years, so everyone believes it. But it is said that once the resurrection is It was an unfortunate beginning, so people in the town didn't want the mayor to bury the child's body."

"But he's still buried?" West asked.

Bella then shook her head: "No, he can't be buried successfully."

"Then why..."

Bella smiled wryly and said, "It's still because of that woman. We didn't know whether that woman wanted to help the mayor or was plotting something wrong. After persuading the mayor, she ran to the deputy mayor and said At the beginning, she made a mistake. The mayor must not let him bury his body in it. Otherwise, not only the whole town will be destroyed, but the whole world may suffer. Because there have always been some magical legends here, everyone He believed in ghosts and gods very much, and at that time the whole town was arguing about the mayor's affairs. Hearing this, he disagreed even more, so he insisted on cremating his son's body first. But the mayor refused, and he Not only did she not allow it, but she also wanted to secretly bury her son's body in it. This angered everyone. Just at this time, the woman came up with another idea. She said that as long as we destroy the cemetery, the destroyed cemetery will be destroyed. Without the original effect, and the mayor has no way to use it."

"Ah..." West's eyes widened, "So you just..."

This method sounds very unreliable. If it is really a magical land, how can humans destroy it casually?

Furthermore, if it is a cursed land, if it is really destroyed, not only will it not be able to break the curse, but it will be cursed instead!

"At that time, everyone was too anxious and rushed to the doctor. Now that I think about it, that woman might want this effect." Bella said, "It rained a lot on the day the tomb was destroyed, and the soil flowed all over the place. Every stone inside was smashed, every piece of soil was upturned, it was a mess, the scene was a mess. It really rained a lot that night."

In that rainy day, Bella could see the soil pressed down by the rain and the messy rocks poured into the rain almost as soon as she closed her eyes.

No one knows what they have done and what they are doing.

Then the story of the next day didn't need to be explained clearly by Bella, West already knew it.

The destroyed cemetery not only failed to lift the curse, but instead resurrected the dead in the entire town and returned to the world.
