Chapter 16 The phantom is full of ghosts, and the fear is frightened to solve the puzzle

However, as Yuezi said, since they are all here, they will simply take a look. What's more, even a girl in confinement is so bold, I can't say I'm afraid.

In this way, the four of us walked slowly up the stairs again and went to the second floor to check.

The staircase is not very long, there is only one turn in the middle, the wall of the staircase is broken windows, and the staircase is also covered with broken glass fragments.

The creaking sound of stepping on the glass makes a very strange appearance in the empty hall.

The moon is in front, Yuhui is in the middle, and Xueqi and I are at the end.

"Yuhui, do you see anything?" I walked behind Yuhui, so I asked her by the way. Yuhui's eyesight is very good, and she is smart enough, I think she might be able to find something, who knows that she just shook her head, looked at me, and said, "No." Then he added, "Very ordinary house." ”

Since Yuhui didn't find anything, I didn't say anything and continued to go upstairs.

We slowly walked up to the second floor, but just as we reached the turn of the stairs, I suddenly heard a "pop" sound from above.

Hearing the sound from above, we stopped almost at the same time, and Xue Qi also grabbed my arm, I glanced at her, only to find that she was pale and pitiful looking at me, as if she was scared to death.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

A continuous sound came down from the second floor, and after a few seconds, it suddenly stopped.

In these few short seconds, we didn't even dare to get out of the atmosphere.

"What...... Voice?" After confirming that the voice was gone, I lowered my voice and asked the first confinement child.

Yuezi shook her head.

"It was like the sound of a door opening and closing. Yuezi also lowered her voice, at this moment, her voice no longer sounded so calm, but seemed a little serious.

"Maybe...... There are ghosts haunting. Still thinking that the confinement had become serious, who thought that a smile bloomed on her lips, and suddenly made another joke.

"Let's go up and have a look. ”

After all, Yuezi was still the most active one, and strode up the stairs without hesitation.

Seeing the motivation of the confinement, I can't help but admire. What an energetic girl. Although she is a little childish, she is very calm and good-tempered no matter what she does, which makes it difficult for people to distance herself from her. Of course, I also know that the character of the confinement is difficult for people to get close to her. Although the confinement looks hearty and friendly, she actually has a bottom line, and if she touches the bottom line, she will definitely choose to refuse.

And just like that, we went up to the second floor. On the second floor is an entryway, with two rooms on the left and in front.

"Hehe, it looks like the wind. It's a false alarm. ”

Confinement was the first to reach the second floor, and I heard her words before I reached the second floor.

When I also walked to the second floor, I realized that there were two rooms here, and each room had a wooden door, but because the lock of the wooden door seemed to be broken, it was half-open and half-closed, and if there was wind outside, the door would be blown open and closed by the wind, and then hit the door frame with a snapping sound.

Yuezi's jet-black hair flowed, and she gently pushed open the wooden door in front of her with her snow-white fingertips, and then walked inside.

"Ahem...... There's enough dust. Yuezi's voice came from the room, and I, Xueqi and Yuhui walked in with Yuezi.

The room was empty, except for a broken wooden bed and a cabinet with a broken shelf, and nothing else.

Yu Hui looked around the room and said nothing. Xue Qi nervously took my hand, looked east and west, and after making sure that there was something terrible in the room, the force of holding my hand was a little less.

"Papa, let's go back. It's not interesting here. Xue Qi whispered in my ear.

"Wait, it's coming, let's see for a while. I said casually to Xueqi.

"It doesn't seem to be weird...... And the house was clearly hacked by thieves. Come to think of it, the owner has been gone for so many years, and it should have been stolen by burglars. After looking around for a week, Yuezi sighed, then turned her head, intending to leave.

But just then, there was a sudden throbbing sound from the broken cabinet next to me.

Open!

There was a sudden throbbing in the cabinet, which really startled me, and Xue Qi screamed even more, and in an instant, all four of us focused our eyes on the closed broken cabinet closest to me.

I quickly pulled Xue Qi away from the cabinet, and Yuezi and Yuhui also stared at the cabinet intently.

Quiet.

Absolute stillness.

"In the cupboard...... There seems to be something. ”

I'm pretty sure there was a "buo" sound in the cabinet just now.

I stared intently at the cabinet, and for a moment I felt goosebumps all over my body.

I've never been superstitious, but people instinctively have a fear of the unknown.

What's more, the psychological hints made me feel a little nervous.

Even a sound like this coming from an ordinary cabinet is enough to make people scared, let alone coming from a cabinet like this in a haunted house.

For a moment, none of the four of us made a sound.

We stared at the cabinet for about five seconds.

Exactly five seconds.

I don't dare to come out.

It wasn't until five seconds later that one of us moved.

The first person to move was Yuhui, who suddenly walked stiffly to the cabinet and stretched out her hand to pull the handle on the cabinet door.

"Yuhui, be careful. "Originally, it should have been me, a big man, to pull the doorknob, but at this moment, Xueqi grabbed my arm so hard that I couldn't step forward, so I was preempted by Yuhui.

“……”

Yuhui still didn't say a word, she grabbed the doorknob of the cabinet with her hand, and after a pause of about half a second, she decisively opened the cabinet.

And at the moment when the cabinet door was opened by Yu Hui, a black shadow suddenly flashed out like a ghost!

It was a very fast black shadow, I didn't even see it, and the black shadow fell in front of Yuezi behind Yuhui.

"ねこ (pronunciation: milk cake.) I called in and heard the cry of the moon, and when I looked back, I saw a black cat about the size of an arm looking back at me, with big blue eyes like a sapphire.

The black cat looked at me, but without barking, as soon as he arched, he continued to bounce towards the window of the room, and jumped out of the window after two or three clicks.

"Holy. It turned out to be a cat. Seeing the black cat jumping out of the window, I scolded, and then I felt relieved, and when I turned around, I saw Xue Qi pursing her mouth nervously, staring at the direction where the black cat jumped out without blinking.

"More than one. Yu Hui's faint voice came, attracting our attention.

Yuezi and I stepped forward and walked to Yuhui's side, only to see that in the cabinet, there was a small nest like a garbage heap, which was made of various fabrics and plastic bags.

And in the center of this litter, there are three kittens about the size of two fingers.

It's just that two of the cats are lying on their backs, with white bellies, as if they are dead, and only one black and white kitten is lying in the nest, with a trembling body, and when they see the light of the cabinet open, their eyes twitch and their eyelids barely pull apart.

At this point, the mystery of the haunted house is completely solved.

Even I already understand.

Seeing the cat in the cabinet, Yuezi stepped up, she hung her bangs, and then carefully reached out and gently took out the still alive kitten in the cabinet.

"Looks like he's been locked in a cupboard for days. The others died, only it survived. Yuezi muttered, but her expression was a little solemn.

"It seems that I haven't had much time since I was born. "I haven't had a cat, but judging by the size, the kitten in Yuezi's hand has just been born.

"Yuezi, the downstairs aunt you said should be the sound that the wild cat was accidentally trapped in the cabinet and couldn't get out just now. ”

"That's how it should be. Yuezi smiled bitterly and nodded, she was still holding the mongrel cat in her hand, the little flower cat looked weak, her body fell softly on the palm of Yuezi's hand, and her eyes seemed to be unable to open.

"The cat's cry is a bit like the cry of a child, coupled with the amplification effect of this old house, as well as the rumors of the previous haunted house, it is possible that the aunt downstairs heard it wrong. The black cat just now should have been a wild cat, giving birth in the cabinet, but accidentally the cabinet door was blown shut by the wind, and the mother cat couldn't get out, so she screamed in despair, hoping that someone would come to save them. It's really pitiful. "Confinement is doing the clearest analysis, and when Confinement says this, my thinking has become very clear. I have to say that the analytical ability of confinement is really strong. While speaking, Yuezi stroked the cat in her hand and looked at the kitten in her hand, Yuezi's expression became solemn.

"It's not good, we need to feed it something to eat. Yuezi looked at the kitten in her hand with some sympathy, "Now that it's all clear, let's get out of here and find something to eat for it, I hope it can still live." ”

"That's right. So we ...... Let's go back. "All the puzzles have been solved, it turns out that it has been a wild cat for a long time, and it is a wild cat who is playing tricks.

Xue Qi is also very sympathetic, and after seeing the wild cat in Yuezi's hand, she never took her eyes off again.

"Let's go. Nothing else. "Now that the mystery of the haunted house has been solved, there is no need for us to stay here any longer, so we walked out of the room one after another.

However, just as we turned to leave the room, we were startled.

Because we all saw that behind the wooden door we entered, there was a blurry photo of yellowed paste.

In the photo, there are two faces, a man and a woman, smiling at us.
