sunk in yesterday

Choose to help the evil spirits who may kill more townspeople, or choose to help the townspeople who invited them here to save their children?

If there are no preconditions, almost no one will choose the former. Isn't this helping others to become violent?

But Xia Zhuo saw Guan Yuzhou looking at him with deep eyes, and blurted out without blinking: "Of course I'm helping Qiu Yinghua and the others."

He didn't say he wanted to help the "ghost", but directly mentioned his name.

"why?"

"Don't ask why, it means I'm unreasonable." Xia Zhuo responded coolly.He reacted belatedly, and the voice that was still muttering suddenly increased, "It's your turn just now, you haven't connected for so long, it's already been ten seconds!"

Guan Yuzhou couldn't help but smile when he saw that his startled look was much more vivid than when he saw a ghost.

He still thought of several points that he didn't mention, but he didn't want to continue any more, so he simply complied with Xia Zhuo's wishes, "Well, you won."

Xia Zhuo knew in his heart that he was let down, but this did not prevent him from speaking out in the slightest: "Hey, Teacher Guan, you really let me down. I have prepared a lot of sentences that I didn't say, but I didn't expect it to end so soon."

"I will try harder next time."

"Oh~ next time, I saw you didn't want to play very much at the beginning, is it addictive after one time?"

Guan Yuzhou didn't change his face: "It's only fair for one person to take it off once."

Xia Zhuo's upturned tail suddenly drooped, feeling that he was threatened with revenge, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed that Guan Yuzhou teased him instead.

After getting used to quarreling with Guan Yuzhou one-sidedly, even if the other party gently A'ed him, he felt that it was very powerful.

"Why do you like to play so much? Let's talk about it later. The most important thing now is to find clues. You are still so slow..." He was a little guilty at first, but seeing Guan Yuzhou still staring at him, his confidence was even more lacking , "Look at me, don't look at me!"

"Well, don't watch it." Guan Yuzhou turned his head to hide the smile in his eyes, and left him and walked towards the stove, "You're right, we'll talk about it later."

Xia Zhuo thought of the ambiguous conversation that stopped halfway before entering the forest, and whispered to himself again: "Some things are okay to talk about now." After saying this, he himself felt awkward, raised his hand and scratched Twice the neck, "Stop chatting, I'm going to get serious."

A row of cupboards in the kitchen had been emptied, leaving nothing but dust.

However, there are indeed benefits to having fewer things. They directly eliminated the useless clues for them, so that the remaining key props can be prominently displayed in front of them.

Xia Zhuo looked at the faucet in the sink, and the scene in the train toilet flashed in his mind, and he suddenly remembered the last sentence he saw on the mirror.

Guan Yuzhou frowned after hearing this, "Lying?"

"Yes, but this sentence seems to be useless up to now." Xia Zhuo didn't quite understand, "Is it used to decorate to scare people, or is it a reminder of something?"

"Just from your description, I think this may be the third death condition."

"The third one? Are there so many death conditions?"

"Just maybe."

"Okay." Xia Zhuo nodded, reached out and turned on the faucet.

The imaginary red did not appear, and the water here probably stopped long ago, and he didn't give him the slightest response when he turned to the end.He tossed about for a while, then squatted down to remove the water pipe. It was an unintentional act, but something hard seemed to be stuck inside, and when it was shaken slightly, it hit the wall of the pipe and made a clanging sound.

This movement was not big, but it attracted the other two people to lean over.Guan Yuzhou held the pipe from his hand, buckled the mouth of the pipe and knocked on the ground. Not long after, a golden key fell on the tile in the sight of the three of them.

It looks small, it doesn't seem to be used on a door, and it doesn't have any complicated patterns and decorations, so I don't know what it can open.Thinking that no box or the like has been found so far, this key can only be kept away for the time being, and it will come in handy later.

After studying the key for a few minutes, Tan Nian pointed behind him and asked in a low voice, "I've looked for it here, are you going somewhere else?"

Guan Yuzhou nodded: "Yes."

Xia Zhuo followed behind him: "Go to the living room? I saw a door in the living room before, and I don't know what room it is."

When the sliding door of the kitchen opened, the ball on the ground was still in place. The three of them didn't care when they got used to seeing it, and walked around it to the other side.

The coffee table in the living room collapsed, and the glass was broken all over the floor, as if it had been smashed on purpose.The sofa was tilted here and there, and the dust-proof cover on it was gone. There were a few knife scratches on one armrest, and half of the sponge stuffed inside was pulled out and thrown on the ground. It turned into a black mass, and the smell it emitted was somewhat indescribable.

The cabinet where the TV should have been placed was empty, but there was a row of bottles and cans of medicine under the cabinet, all of which were written in English. I am afraid that the people in the town could not understand the instructions, so they gave up and brought them with them. Walk.

Guan Yuzhou picked it up and studied it for a while. In addition to some cold and fever medicines for children, there are also various patches and treatments for skin allergies.He opened the cans and took a look. These allergy medicines all had traces of being touched. The production date was around 1996, and they had expired long ago.

Xia Zhuo also knew a thing or two about the above words, squatting on the side and asked: "What is this, someone in the family has a skin disease?"

Guan Yuzhou: "It's Qiu Yinghua."

"how do you know?"

Guan Yuzhou pointed to the instructions for the medication. There was a box with the words "one tablet at a time for adults, half a tablet at a time for children", and then showed him the pills in the bottle that were cut in half with a knife.

Xia Zhuo understood that, in order to facilitate Qiu Yinghua's medication, all these were prepared in advance.

Tan Nian picked up a photo frame from the debris under the coffee table, "Mr. Guan, here is a group photo."

This is a family portrait of the three of them. Qiu Yinghua in it is only a little smaller, fair and delicate like a pampered young master, sitting in his father's arms, holding the white porcelain rabbit music box in his arms, ignorant Look in the direction of the camera knowingly.Jiang Yajie was wearing a low-key but luxurious dress and stood beside her husband intimately holding an umbrella. Both of them smiled happily.

Xia Zhuo looked at the two faces above, "They do look like husband and wife."

He was telling the truth, Jiang Yajie and her husband had very similar faces, they seemed to have a harmonious relationship, and they were both eye-catching.

Guan Yuzhou stared at the screw on the back of the photo frame and thought for a moment, then pinched a piece of glass of a moderate size on the ground, inserted it into the screw and unscrewed it little by little.

Looking at the shiny glass, Xia Zhuo couldn't help telling: "Be careful."

"it is good."

After the thin layer of wood was removed, the words written in pen on the back of the photo appeared.

The handwriting is different from what Xia Zhuo saw in Qiu Yinghua's homework. It is more mature and graceful. It should be written by Jiang Yajie or her husband. There are only a short sentence and a hand-painted smiling face.

[Leave everything behind and escape here, we don't regret it.

——1994/3/17】

Xia Zhuo read the above words, "Escape here? They didn't commit some crimes and then hid in this small corner to live."

But after thinking about it, it makes sense, otherwise, why would someone like them who have received higher education and a wealthy family settle in such a remote town?And he doesn't live in the town, and he insists on building a house so deep in the forest, doesn't it seem like he's hiding from something?

So why run away?Wanted by the police?What kind of people on the road did you offend?

He felt that these were not the main points, and he wanted to know why the two died.

"It's nothing here, it's really been wiped clean." Xia Zhuo looked at the half-broken curtain in front of the window, and couldn't help but be speechless, "Bandits are not so excessive, and it's too miserable."

"Have you ever seen bandits?"

"How do I remember this? Maybe I'm still a relative of Bandits."

Guan Yuzhou seemed to have heard something funny, and he curled his lips and exaggerated.

Xia Zhuo, who was perfunctory, was not annoyed, stepped over in two or three steps, and said with a smile: "When someone robs your house, I will rob you."

He tried his best to be ruffian, but he could only have a silly face, and seeing Guan Yuzhou's eyes made him smile even deeper.

"it is good."

Xia Zhuo really didn't expect him to respond to her, her smile froze for a moment, "Ah? What?"

Guan Yuzhou repeated patiently: "I said, okay, let you grab it."

Depend on.

Guan Yuzhou, you can.

Xia Zhuo could hear her heart beating vigorously against her chest.

Wouldn't it be better to lean over and kiss at this time?But before he could act, this thought was dispelled by another slapping sound in front of the entrance.

The two looked up at the same time, and saw that bloody ball was falling rhythmically, hitting the pool of blood on the ground and splashing everywhere, as if some invisible person was standing behind the ball and staring at it. And lo and behold.

Then it was kicked, and Gululu rolled into the living room.

Xia Zhuo saw a pair of feet suddenly appeared on the stairs, and the calf was covered by the superstructure, leaving only the naked lower body exposed in their sight.And the ball hit the glass, stopped one meter away from him and never moved again.

"Who?" Xia Zhuo glanced at the ball, "Qiu Yinghua or the other dead one?"

Guan Yuzhou turned the music box at an angle and took a photo in the direction of the stairs.

As he expected, the mirror surface was really red, and nothing was reflected.

It seems that there will be no good trouble this time.

Now the music box was useless, so he handed it to Tan Nian.

Qin Nian took the advice, and hurriedly removed the mirror from the groove, and reflected himself in it with his back turned.

Xiao Hei who appeared in the mirror turned his head and walked towards the stairs, and soon turned his face back again, standing in the blood and shaking his head at him.

Tan Nian had never seen the other person like this before, so anxious and scared, he didn't dare to ask.

Seeing that he was puzzled, Xiao Hei mouthed every word.

There was a certain distance between the two of them, and Tan Nian scratched his ears and cheeks to distinguish, but still couldn't see why, and the panic on his face became more obvious.

Xiao Hei paused for two seconds, and returned to the mirror from the bottom of the stairs. This time Tan Nian finally saw what he was talking about——

"It has no face, I can't see it."
