Strange Story of Strange House

Tang Xuan's efficiency was extremely high. The next afternoon, she called Lin Chi: "Primary school brother, what you asked me to do yesterday has already begun."

Tang Xuan flipped through the paper and read the contents to Lin Chi: "In Thirteen Buildings, there are four people who meet the two conditions of having an abortion and living in the dormitory. Shu Qi, a junior in the Department of Chinese Xuan, who had an abortion four months ago, jumped to her death from the roof of Thirteen Buildings three months ago; Xiao Yanping, a senior in the English Department, had an abortion six months ago, and jumped to her death yesterday; Died of hemorrhage after miscarriage, and died on the night of the operation; finally, Zhou Nan, a junior in the Department of Mathematics, had a medical abortion three months ago, and she is still alive."

"Senior sister...you are amazing!" Lin Chi exclaimed, he really didn't expect Tang Xuanhui to give him an answer so quickly.

"Haha! Girls are more gossipy~ I went to a few dormitories with good relationships and chatted for a while, and after summarizing the information I collected, I came up with the answer." Tang Xuan laughed, "Don't thank me too much, remember to talk to me on weekends. I'll just go home and eat."

"No problem! Thank you senior sister! It was a great help!" Lin Chi hastily wrote down the information of several people on a sticky note, thanked Tang Xuan, hung up the phone, and Lin Chi found Lou Qi with the sticky note.

"I found a problem. Xu Gui appeared about three months ago, that is to say, he must have formed a baby spirit earlier than three months, but Yu Jiao and Xia Yu had abortions two weeks and one week ago respectively. Yes, and the place where the two had their abortion was not the school, so they cannot be Xu Gui's "mother", and they are not the targets of his revenge, so why did he kill them?"

Lin Chi pointed to the information on the sticky note and signaled Lou Qi to look at his new discovery: "Look at Zhou Nan, she had an abortion earlier than when Xu Gui appeared, and she is the only one still living in the thirteenth building. People, Xu Gui is still wandering in the thirteenth building, I think Xu Gui's next target should be Zhou Nan."

Lou Qi also agreed with this point of view, and the two immediately decided to go to school. After all, if Zhou Nan was delayed for a minute, it would be more dangerous.Before going out, Lin Chi went upstairs to take a look at Yunbao, because the danger factor could not be estimated, he discussed with Lou Qi that he did not plan to bring Yunbao.

"Daddy, are you going to look for the little brother at school?" The little guy was buried under the quilt, crying until his eyes were swollen.

"Um……"

"Take me!" Rainbow pleaded, grabbing a corner of the quilt.

Lin Chi rejected him cruelly: "I don't know if it's dangerous or not to go this time, so I can't take you with me."

"Little brother is a good man, he won't hurt Rainbow Dash!" Yun Bao looked at Lin Chi with tears in his eyes, and the tears rolled down from his big round eyes.Lin Chi panicked. Seeing this, Lou Qi stretched out his arms to hug Yun Bao.

"Father...I want to go, I want to go!" Rainbow Dash leaned on Lou Qi's shoulder, sobbing softly.

"Understood, Dad will take you there." Lou Qi patted Yun Bao on the back, comforted him softly, then looked at Lin Chi apologetically as if suddenly remembering his agreement with Lin Chi, "Take him there Well, there will be no danger." After finishing speaking, he hugged Rainbow very embarrassedly and went downstairs.

"..." Lin Chi shook his head helplessly, and suddenly laughed again. Lou Qi looked cold, but in fact he was more soft-hearted than him.

Lin Chi took Lou Qi to the downstairs of the thirteenth dormitory in the South District with ease. This time, it was not as easy to sneak into the dormitory as yesterday. Lin Chi thought about it and called "Internal Ying".As the saying goes, there are people in the court who are easy to handle, and within a few minutes, Tang Xuan arrives with his skirt in hand.In the end, the two entered the dormitory smoothly under the pretext of visiting their cousin as Tang Xuan's cousin.

Coincidentally, the girls in Tang Xuan's dormitory had evening classes today, so they just vacated the dormitory.Tang Xuanqiao dropped his elective courses and took Lin Chi and the others back to the dormitory.

After sitting down, Lin Chi asked Tang Xuan if he knew Zhou Nan. Tang Xuan smiled and said, "Yes, we are in the student union together, but we don't know each other very well."

Lin Chi's eyes lit up, and he discussed with Tang Xuan and invited Zhou Nan to come over in her name.Zhou Nan was invited to come soon, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw two strange boys. She looked at Tang Xuan blankly: "Who are these two?"

"My two cousins." Tang Xuan glanced at Lin Chi and gave up the right to speak.

"Zhou Nan, we invite you here because we have something very important to tell you. It may sound unbelievable, but please listen carefully to what we have to say."

Lin Chi told Zhou Nan what happened before and what was about to happen.At first, Zhou Nan didn't believe it, but Tang Xuan didn't slam the door out because of Tang Xuan's face. When Lin Chi talked about the crying in the toilet, Zhou Nan's face changed: "For the past few months, I have been having a dream , the dream was full of blood-stained children, hugging me and calling mother, that sound... that sound was exactly the same as crying in the toilet, it scared me so much that I didn’t dare to live in the dormitory recently.”

Lou Qi and Lin Chi looked at each other, and understood why the girl in front of her escaped a catastrophe before—she didn't live in the dormitory, and Xu Gui had no chance to strike.

"Zhou Nan, we really want to help you, but we need your cooperation..." Lin Chi paused, "Before you didn't live in the dormitory, he couldn't find you, but now you're back...he will soon It's coming. We can protect you, but you must cooperate with us."

Zhou Nan grabbed Tang Xuan's hand in a panic, and nodded heavily.

With Zhou Nan's guarantee, Lou Qi hid the aura of several people on his side, leaving only Zhou Nan's aura in the whole room.With the right time, place and people, it depends on whether Xu Gui will take the bait.

Sure enough, how could the red-eyed Xu Gui let go of such a good opportunity, after a while, there was a chill in the air, the thick smell of blood and the sound of sticky footsteps arrived as expected, and Xu Gui returned.

Several people held their breath, and Zhou Nan didn't even dare to breathe. In the silence, there was a sudden violent noise from the toilet pipe, and after the lights flickered for a while, the ground began to ooze blood.

"Ah!!!" Zhou Nan was taken aback, his feet went limp and his hands went limp in an instant, shaking into a ball.Tang Xuan hugged Zhou Nan, blocking the terrifying scene in front of her eyes. She was not afraid, but she believed that Lin Chi would not put her in danger.

Rainbow Dash suddenly whispered: "Little brother is here." As soon as he finished speaking, a blood-red hand suddenly emerged from the pool of blood submerged in his ankle.Immediately afterwards, Xu Gui slowly crawled out of the pool of blood. His appearance was hideous and hideous. On his face where the skin had faded, eyes redder than fresh blood were inlaid, like an evil spirit crawling out of hell.

"Mom...do you still remember me?" Xu Gui grinned, and blood spurted out of his mouth in an instant, splashing around.

Zhou Nan screamed and hid in Tang Xuan's arms again and again.Seeing this, Xu Gui could no longer see a smile on his facial features, and his white teeth were particularly dazzling.

"Mom, you pay for your life, I'm here to find you..."

"Xu Gui!" Lin Chi couldn't help interrupting Xu Gui, "Look at what you've made of yourself, it's born from your heart, look at what you look like now!"

Xu Gui was taken aback by Lin Chi, and he didn't realize the existence of Lin Chi and others until now.He froze for a moment, and then rushed towards Zhou Nan as if he was irritated, but was slapped away by Lou Qi on the way.He fell into the pool of blood and screamed, Yun Bao frowned, but he didn't dare to disturb Lou Qi, he could only look at Xu Gui and kept crying.Lou Qi was concerned about his son, so he didn't attack again, but Xu Gui was determined to kill Zhou Nan, taking advantage of Lou Qi's unpreparedness, he rushed at Zhou Nan again, Tang Xuan quickly pulled Zhou Nan to hide , Xu Gui rushed to nothing.

Xu Gui's eyes were about to burst, and he was about to move, when a silver light suddenly struck him, and the huge pressure made him unable to move.

At that moment, Xu Gui's mind went blank.

— Am I going to die again?It's too late, Mom.

At this time, a small body suddenly rushed over and pushed him out. Xu Gui was shocked by the push, and when he regained his senses, he ran away.

Xu Gui ran towards the door while crying. His only friend, who he thought had abandoned him so he made up his mind not to associate with him, blocked the knife edge for him at the most critical moment.

He heard the panicked voices of Lin Chi and the man with the knife behind him, but he didn't dare to turn his head, he was afraid that he would turn his head and look at Yun Bao, and he would be unable to move any more.

Xu Gui ran a long way out of the dormitory building before stopping. He looked up at the dark sky, feeling at a loss.

His name is Xu Gui, and he is homeless.

Xu Gui stood there in a daze for a while, then wandered outside the dormitory with long bloodstains on his feet.Suddenly, he heard a familiar voice: "Xiao Gui—"

Is it mom?Will it be mom?Xu Gui looked around subconsciously, and sure enough, he saw a person who looked like Lu Yin running towards him.Xu Gui raised his hand to wipe his face, and wanted to greet his mother with the best posture, but the next second he saw his blood-red hand, and Xu Gui suddenly ran away - no, you can't see your mother in this way, mother will despise me.

Xu Guixiao was extremely flustered, he didn't know where to go, but he ran so slowly that he was easily hugged by Lu Yin.

Xu Gui was extremely desperate, how could his mother see him like this?He struggled hard, but was tightly imprisoned in Lu Yin's arms.

"Xiaogui, Mom is sorry for you." Lu Yin hugged her child tightly, expressing her apology over and over again.

At the same time, the pool of blood in Tang Xuan's bedroom completely faded away, Lin Chi stretched out his arms and hugged Yun Bao, who looked at the two fathers timidly: "I'm sorry, but the little brother is really not a bad person, Dad, you can't kill him. "

Yun Bao took advantage of one of the two not paying attention and went to protect Xu Gui, if Lou Qi hadn't retracted the knife quickly, the knife would have slashed at Yun Bao's body.

Lin Chi was so angry that when he mentioned Yun Bao, he slapped his butt a few times. Yun Bao hugged Lin Chi's waist and cried while begging Xu Gui. In the end, Lin Chi had nothing to do with him.

After Zhou Nan and Tang Xuan settled down for the family of three, Xu Gui had long since disappeared. After Lou Qi repeatedly assured that he would not hurt Xu Gui, Yun Bao tugged on the sleeves of his lord and led them the way.When he found Xu Gui, Lin Chi was surprised to find that Lu Yin was there too. Lu Yin hugged Xu Gui, crying uncontrollably, while Xu Zihao stood not far from them, lighting a cigarette.

Xu Gui finally gave up struggling, and stayed quietly in Lu Yin's arms: "Mom, don't you want me?"

"Why would I not want you, every child is mother's little angel, mother's redemption..." Lu Yin's voice was always very soft, and when she coaxed the child, it was as if she was telling the warmest fairy tale.Xu Gui gradually calmed down in her arms, and her hostility was slowly washed away by her voice.

Lou Qi looked at the embracing mother and child, and suddenly said, "Yingling, I'm leaving."

"Huh?" Lin Chi and Yun Bao looked at him in surprise.He lowered his head and rubbed his son's little head: "The baby spirit's stay in this world relies on resentment towards his mother. Now that he has no resentment, he will naturally disappear."

Following Lou Qi's words, Lin Chi noticed that the skin on Xu Gui's body had gradually faded to white, and he had returned to his original delicate and beautiful appearance.

Xu Zihao obviously heard Lou Qi's words, he walked over, hesitated for a moment: "Can I, see that child? I want to see him."

Lou Qi glanced at him, then raised his hand to sweep his eyelids: "I opened the sky eye for you temporarily."

"Thank you!" Xu Zihao bowed to Lou Qi, then turned his head and walked towards Lu Yin. This time, he finally saw the child clearly.

He has fair skin and big eyes... looks very cute.Seeing Xu Zihao walking towards him, Xu Gui obediently called Dad.

Xu Zihao wiped his face, and responded softly: "Xiaogui, Dad saw you."

"Yeah! I can see Dad all the time." Xu Gui raised his face and said proudly.

Although it was an extremely childish conversation, seeing Xu Gui's happy expression, Lin Chi still felt heartbroken.Having fulfilled his last wish, Xu Gui held Lu Yin's face in his arms: "Mom, my time is up, I'm leaving, so don't hate me any more, even for Xiaogui's sake, live a good life with Dad, okay? "

Lu Yin couldn't cry, Xu Gui scratched his head, and finally kissed Lu Yin's forehead lightly, broke away from her embrace, and walked away step by step.

Xu Gui disappeared, Xu Zihao hugged Lu Yin, and this always strong man also shed tears.

——Every child is an angel, giving their mother love and salvation.

A week later, Lin Chi's life had returned to the tranquility of the past, but at this moment, he suddenly learned the news of Lu Yin's suicide.

Lu Yin committed suicide by cutting her wrists. Fortunately, Xu Zihao found out in time and rescued him.After that, Lu Yin stayed in the hospital to recuperate, didn't talk to anyone, just looked out the window silently.Lin Chi received a call from Xu Zihao, hoping that he could find time to visit Lu Yin.

"You can see Xiaogui just like her, and maybe you can have something to talk about. She hasn't spoken for a long time..."

After learning about Lu Yin's hospital from Xu Zihao, Lin Chi chose a free afternoon to visit her.

The weather was fine that day, and the afternoon sun shone warmly into the room, making the warm-toned convalescent room even warmer.When Lin Chi entered the door, Lu Yin was silently looking out the window, and Zhang Xuan's "Baby" was playing in a low voice on loop.

... My baby, baby, give you a little sweetness, so that you can sleep well tonight; my little ghost, little ghost, tease your eyebrows and eyes, make you like this world...

"Lv Yin, long time no see." Lin Chi put flowers and fruit baskets on the table and said hello to Lu Yin, but the latter turned a deaf ear.

Lin Chi came alone, without Lou Qi or Yun Bao.There were only him and Lu Yin in the huge ward, so Lu Yin didn't speak, so he could only follow in silence, the room was so quiet that he could hear each other's breathing.

Lu Yin didn't entertain guests, so Lin Chi had to find a place to sit down by himself.The brisk singing echoed in the room all the time. In the gentle voice of the woman, Lin Chi couldn't help but think of Xu Gui—that child was born in the filthiest place, but with the clearest eyes, he could already obtain happiness , but in order to protect the one he loves, he returns to the quagmire.

Lin Chi couldn't help being a little annoyed by Lu Yin's decadent appearance at the moment. Where does she put Xu Gui in her current state?

Lin Chi has always loved that child very much, especially after learning about Xu Gui's sacrifice for Lu Yin, he felt even more distressed: "Lu Yin, Xu Gui has given so much for you, he wouldn't want to see you now This is what it looks like."

Lin Chi's voice was very soft, but he knew that Lu Yin heard it - the woman trembled and turned her head slowly.

"...to pay?" Lu Yin was stunned for a moment, then tapped herself on the head, "I always feel sorry for Xiao Gui, but I can't remember, what did I do? You tell me, what did I do? what?"

Lu Yin looked blank, and Lin Chi suddenly thought of what Xu Zihao said to him before coming here: "Xiao Yin has amnesia, selective amnesia, the doctor said that because that memory was too painful for her, she subconsciously sealed it up. I originally thought she would forget about our child, or Xiaogui, but she remembered everything clearly, so what exactly did she forget?"

Lu Yin forgot what she did to sorry Xu Gui.

She forgot, but Lin Chi still remembered.

Before Lin came late, Xu Zihao once told him that Lu Yin's mental condition was very bad, and losing her most cherished child distorted her values ​​for a while.

——I can't ask for it, why do you give it up so easily?

Xu Zihao's words made Lin Chi suddenly enlightened, and all the problems that he couldn't figure out before were solved easily.

Abortors are guilty, and abortionists deserve death—this is Lu Yin's distorted values. This concept has been deeply rooted in her heart after losing her child, and it has been subtly instilled in Xu Gui, who has been with her day and night.Although Xu Gui is an infant spirit, he is still just a child, and his mother's influence on him is immeasurable...

Lou Qi once said that Yingling would only kill his "mother", so Lin Chi has never been able to understand why Yu Jiao and Xia Yu were clearly not Xu Gui's "mother", but they were still taken away by him. life?

Xu Gui was so well-behaved and sensible, Lin Chi couldn't believe that he could be an evil spirit who wantonly killed women.

This question troubled Lin Chi for a long time, until one day, he saw Danqing drinking brown sugar water.
