Anna's home was only a few kilometers away from the church, and the four of them arrived at Anna's home in ten minutes. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Xia Shaoguang stepped forward and pressed the doorbell, and it was Anna's mother who came out.

"Who are you?" When Anna's mother saw the four people coming, she was puzzled.

Xia Shaoguang briefly introduced his intentions: "We are investigators, and we are here to investigate the case of the two TV station workers who died in the woods behind Ayton Church some time ago. ”

Anna's mother glanced at the three of them behind Xia Shaoguang with some disgust, and then said, "Isn't this matter already closed?" Why do you need to check? ”

"That's right, those two TV station staff originally wanted to visit your daughter, but because you weren't at home that day, you went back directly, and you met with misfortune on the way back." Xia Shaoguang explained to Anna's mother.

Anna's mother was still a little skeptical, and her tone was full of distrust: "But what does this have to do with us? Is it our fault? ”

"No, no, no," Xia Shaoguang hurriedly waved his hand, "You must have heard your daughter tell you about the flying owl in the woods, and we suspect that the staff of the two TV stations may have died at the hands of that creature, so we want to ask Anna to find out the situation." ”

"If so, then I think I have the right to refuse your inquiries, and I want to protect my daughter." Anna's mother said that she was about to close the door, but was blocked by Xia Shaoguang.

Xia Shaoguang hurriedly blocked the door with his body and said to Anna's mother: "Madam, don't you want to keep your daughter away from that creature that can kill two adults in an instant?" This creature is definitely not gone yet, and if we don't catch it for a day, it has the potential to cause even more casualties! ”

Xia Shaoguang's words may have moved Anna's mother, and finally Anna's mother agreed to let Xia Shaoguang and them talk to Anna.

However, before that, Xia Shaoguang did not talk to Anna directly, but chose to learn about Anna's situation with Anna's mother first.

"When did Anna start claiming to encounter that creature?" Xia Shaoguang sat at the table in the dining room and asked Anna's mother.

"I don't know," Anna's mother said, "probably last month, and I don't remember much." ”

Xia Shaoguang glanced at Ruan Wen beside him, and then continued to ask Anna's mother, "Did anything happen that day?" Do you remember what happened? ”

Anna's mother frowned slightly, touched her earlobe lightly with one hand, and thought for a moment: "That night, Anna got lost with the kindergarten teacher, and when I found her, she was standing alone in the woods behind the church, and when she came back, she had a fever, and that night she began to say that she saw that kind of thing." ”

Anna's mother's expression was a little cramped, and she seemed to be a little afraid.

Xia Shaoguang was also a little skeptical, and in order to make sure that all the possibilities had been confirmed, Xia Shaoguang continued to ask: "We usually think that children between the ages of five and ten are the most imaginative stage, has Anna ever shown similar performance?" Like fantasy buddies and stuff like that? ”

"You mean it's all Anna's imagination?" Anna's mother's tone is already a little unkind, I'm afraid that if Xia Shaoguang continues to ask like this, Anna's mother may have to give them an eviction order.

So, Xia Shaoguang had no choice but to end the conversation and turned to Anna, who was playing in the sand in the yard, to learn about the situation.

Five-year-old Anna has the same innocence as any other child, and there is nothing unusual at all.

"Hello, Anna." Xia Shaoguang walked to Anna's side and squatted down.

Anna was a little timid, took a step back, and asked, "Who are you?" ”

Xia Shaoguang smiled slightly and stretched out his hand: "My name is Xia Shaoguang, I want to ask, is this painting painted by you?" ”

As he spoke, Xia Shaoguang took out a painting from behind him, which was the portrait of the "Owl Man" that Anna had drawn at the priest.

When Anna saw the painting, her face was expressionless, and she just muttered, "Devil, this is the devil." ”

Xia Shaoguang saw Anna's performance, and somehow felt a cool breeze blowing behind him.

Xia Shaoguang hurriedly changed his way of asking and put away the painting: "How did you encounter this thing at that time?" Can you tell me about it? ”

Anna's mother stood uncomfortably at the balcony door and looked at Xia Shaoguang, seemingly full of hostility towards them.

Almost without thinking, Anna said directly to Xia Shaoguang: "The teacher forgot to take me away, I walked into the woods by myself, and then I felt very hot in my body, and I looked up and saw this thing." ”

When Xia Shaoguang heard Anna say this, he felt that it should be a relatively incomprehensible thing that the thing did not arrest Anna, so he hurriedly continued to ask, "And then?" ”

Anna paused, looked down at the tips of her shoes, and her voice became a lot quieter: "Then my mother and a lot of people found me. ”

Xia Shaoguang saw Anna's performance, and immediately turned his head to look at Anna's mother.

"When you found Anna, did you notice anything in the woods overhead? Or do you hear something unusual? Xia Shaoguang and Anna's mother sat back down at the table in the dining room.

Anna's mother clasped her hands to her chest, leaned on the back of the chair, and said, "At that time, where could I care about looking to the side, there was a dark forest all around, and everyone was in a hurry if I couldn't find Anna, where could I care about looking to the side?" ”

Xia Shaoguang nodded, saying that this is also human nature, and then continued: "What about the voice? Did you hear anything out of the ordinary? ”

"Loud ......" Anna's mother raised her chin and thought about it, but then shook her head.

"There should be no unusual noise, there were too many people in the forest at that time, and the wind was still strong, even if there was any sound, we couldn't hear anything." Anna's mother reminisced for a moment, then said.

Xia Shaoguang nodded, didn't ask anything more, but looked out the window and said to Anna's mother: "Madam, I want to take Anna to that forest to find out where she saw the owl at that time." ”

As soon as these words came out, Anna's mother stood up and scolded sharply: "No! How can this be! ”

"That's right, ma'am, we now suspect that the creature that Anna saw at that time was not an owl, but a normal creature, so we need Anna's help!" Xia Shaoguang also stood up from the chair and persuaded. (To be continued.) )
