Thousand Lakes Island, it's night.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew out all the candles on the table, it was a retro candle with nine candles on it, all of which were blown out, and there was not a single one left.

Then, there was another cold gust of wind, and there was the sound of soft footsteps outside the door......

At this time, in the upstairs bedroom, Nian Nian and Gintama Nineteen had already fallen asleep.

In the dark hall on the first floor, Tang Qingxue sat on the sofa, Mike stood at the door, and Cynthia stood on the side of the corridor, there was silence all around, except for the footsteps echoing, as if stepping on everyone's heart.

Soon, outside the translucent glass door, a figure appeared, and the footsteps were wet, as if they were coming up from the bottom of the water, and they made a snapping sound.

Judging by the silhouette of the figure, it should have been a woman, and it was drenched, as if it had crawled out of the water.

The figure paused in the doorway for a moment and began to bang on the door, one at a time, very mechanically.

"Ma'am, do you want to open the door?"

Tang Qingxue was stunned for a moment, "Go!" ”

Mike reached out and pulled the door open, very slowly, very slightly...... As if he was afraid that he would disturb her if he was too big.

The door finally opened, and in the cold light one could see a woman in a cloak standing in the doorway, soaking wet, as if she had come out of the water.

Her body was still dripping water, and the steps below her had already become a large wet patch, turning into a small water stain, and the area of the water stain was still expanding.

This figure, on a night like this, looks very terrifying.

Tang Qingxue, who had never believed in ghosts and gods, was also frightened in an instant, and suddenly there was a pop behind him, and someone struck a match, and in an instant, a pale yellow light filled the entire living room, and it instantly became bright.

With this light, Tang Qingxue also saw clearly that the figure standing at the door was none other than Sister-in-law's daughter.

Tang Qingxue breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out to be a living person, not a ghost! It seems that psychological suggestion is really scary.

Beneath her messy wet head was a miserable little white face, a red nightgown that was wet, wet on her body, and even her shoes. It's like crawling out of a river.

Before Tang Qingxue opened her mouth, Mike scolded first.

"I said, are you sick? Dressed like this in the middle of the night, do you want to scare the whole family to death! ”

"I'm sorry, I'm so cold! I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" The girl repeated the words simply, turning and walking in the direction of the room, leaving a puddle of wet water where she had walked.

"Forget it, don't scold, this kid was already frightened, and he may have just fallen into the river. Say no more, Mike! Tang Qingxue breathed a sigh of relief.

Mike stopped talking, turned and closed the door.

However, Tang Qingxue couldn't sleep anymore because of this commotion, and after making a phone call to Long Ling'er, it happened that Mike cooked a supper and came out.

It's also simple, it's the fragrant and glutinous osmanthus glutinous rice balls, and two large bowls are boiled.

Tang Qingxue beckoned Cynthia to come over and eat together.

Cynthia stood in the hallway, looking in the direction the girl was walking past, and asked curiously, "Where did she live before?" ”

Mike leaned over and took a look, "Hey, how did she get to the mercy room?" ”

Cynthia made a shushing gesture to signal him not to speak, and then, one after the other, the two of them walked towards the room.

I don't know when the rain stopped, the moonlight shone in through the window, the bedroom door was not closed, Mike gently pushed open a crack, and he could see the girl lying on the bed board, holding a quilt, still shivering, "It's so cold, it's so cold!" ”

Tang Qingxue finished her supper, raised her head, and saw that Mike had already walked back.

"How? What happened? ”

"Uh...... I felt like she was in a bad mood, and she kept shaking. McBee gestured and told Tang Qingxue what he had just seen.

Tang Qingxue looked at Cynthia again, "You don't have any leaves from the acacia tree, can you exorcise evil spirits for her?" This kid is quite pathetic. ”

Cynthia's face was calm, she shook her head slightly, and then stood against the wall, the veil hiding her face, leaving only a pair of bright eyes, as if she could see through everything.

"No, it's useless."

"Well, then! It's getting late, so let's rest! ”

Tang Qingxue got up and stretched her waist, but she was actually sleepy.

"I'm not going to sleep tonight, and this night may not be peaceful." Cynthia, who didn't know where to get a book, sat on a white chair and read it under the lamp.

Mike shrugged his shoulders, "I don't sleep, it's my sacred duty to protect beauties." ”

After saying that, he sat down in front of Cynthia, then put one hand on his cheek, and then looked at her intently.

Cynthia gave him a blank look, turned around and changed directions, Mike moved the chair around again, and then sat in front of her, and said with a humble face, "**Master, do you accept apprentices?" I want to learn how to catch ghosts from you? ”

Cynthia squinted at him a few times, "Your own conditions don't quite match. ”

"Why, I'm in pretty good condition, you see, my muscles, I'......m very strong," Mike said, rolling up his sleeves seriously, flashing his arm muscles, and even yelling at the shirt he was about to take off.

Cynthia accentuated, "I'm talking about the condition that your quality is too low!! ”

"Hey, how can you hit me like that! I mean it......" Mike struggled to prove to Cynthia.

Tang Qingxue sighed, turned around and walked up the stairs.

As soon as I walked to the door of the bedroom on the second floor, I reached out to open the door, when the knock on the door rang again.

The knock on the door was monotonous, mechanical, and it felt like a head hitting the door.

Tang Qingxue couldn't help but be stunned, it seems that tonight is really not peaceful, who is coming to trouble in the middle of the night like this?

I wanted to open the door, but now I suddenly wanted to see this mysterious visitor.

Turning around, he walked down the stairs again, and the knocking continued......

Cynthia was still sitting in her chair, the book in her hand had been quickly closed, and Mike was walking towards the door.

Tang Qingxue stopped when she walked to the first floor, and Mike had already opened the door.

Outside, in the dark night, only a cold moon hung in the inky blue sky, and the moonlight came in from the back of the figure, and her long messy head could be seen covering her face. Her nightgown was soaked, and she looked like she had just been fished out of the water, and the water stains under her feet had accumulated into a large pool of water......
