"Chapter 9: Grandpa's Research"

Meng Xiaofei was ready, and Xiaoyu also arrived at his door.

Meng Xiaofei got into Xiaoyu's car and fastened his seat belt. The car drove directly to the city.

Along the way, Xiaoyu didn't ask Meng Xiaofei any questions, and Meng Xiaofei didn't take the initiative to talk. He only felt that there was a smell of incense in the car, which made him very intoxicated, as for whether it was the smell of car perfume, or the fragrance of Xiaoyu, or whatever, he didn't know.

Strangely, Xiao Yu did not drive the car to a coffee house or tea house, but turned directly into a neighborhood, which has been in the city for decades, and is still the kind of Soviet-style red brick house. The houses in the community are not very tall, the highest is only four floors, and the lower ones are only two floors, about a dozen. Accustomed to the fast-paced elevator room in the city, take a look here again, there is a kind of mysterious Ningyuan.

The car stopped in front of a two-story red brick house, which was the innermost building in the whole community, and seemed to be separated from the whole community, because in this small community, only this house stood on the highest hill, more than 20 times the distance between the other houses.

"Get out of the car." Xiaoyu didn't say much, and took Meng Xiaofei to the second floor.

It was a very modest room, and there was nothing luxurious about the decoration of the room, even crowded and cluttered. But this room has a great feature, which can be found as soon as you enter the door, because the house is full of scattered books and newspapers, and it can even be said that it is a room dedicated to stacking books.

"I'm sorry, it's a bit messy here, but this is where my grandfather worked before his death, and there are many things that we don't dare to touch at will." Xiao Yu explained as he pulled out a shabby stool and motioned for Meng Xiaofei to sit down.

Meng Xiaofei began to look at this room, the house is not big, two bedrooms and one living room, the living room is already full of books, there is almost no extra space, there is only a desk and a full bookcase in a bedroom, there is a pen holder on the desk, which is actually full of all kinds of pens. In the middle of the desk, there are some writing materials on paper, the handwriting is very sloppy, at first glance it looks like a Taoist priest's talisman, and some places have some small patterns drawn, so you can't see what is drawn.

The other bedroom was half-covered with the door, Meng Xiaofei was embarrassed to take the initiative to push it open, it seemed that the one should be the bedroom where Grandpa Xiaoyu slept before his death.

"You just told me about UFOs in a text message, did you find something in the Himalayas?" Xiaoyu didn't say much and went straight to the topic.

"I ......" Meng Xiaofei originally wanted to say that he saw aliens, but after some consideration, he decided to hide it first, "When I took pictures that time, I took some strange things, maybe it was related to what your grandfather said, so I sent you a text message." Meng Xiaofei took out the photo and pointed to the two flame-like dots in the upper right corner.

Xiao Yu looked at the photo and held his breath, "It seems that Grandpa's research is true!" ”

"What research?" Meng Xiaofei asked suspiciously.

"Truth be told, my grandfather, like you, was an adventurer who loved to explore and discover, and one night many years ago, he told us that he had found something strange in the Himalayas! At that time, we didn't care, and we didn't know what the strange thing he was talking about, and he didn't tell us when he asked him many times. Since returning that day, my grandfather has been staying in this room to study, occasionally going out to some remote places, and going there for most of the year. Xiao Yu continued, "Because Grandpa is an adventurer and it is normal for him to go out often, the family didn't care until he came back for the last time and stayed in this house for three years!" He never even went out of the door, and every time he arrived at the meal, we took turns to deliver food to him. ”

"Your grandfather can't be studying UFOs, is he?" Meng Xiaofei occasionally interjected two sentences.

"We were all in the dark until Grandpa, on his deathbed, told us that he might have found traces of aliens. You know, we both graduated from prestigious universities, and most of our families are in business, and we don't believe in the field of aliens at all, just the nonsense that grandpa said before he died. But...... I am sure that my grandfather would not say such unfounded things, and before he died, he specially instructed me and my cousin separately to give us the opportunity to continue his research, which must be a heavy discovery. So, after that, my cousin and I were the only ones in the whole family who often came here to sort out my grandfather's relics. Xiao Yu said with tears in his eyes.

"Originally, my family didn't pay attention to these things, but half a year ago, my cousin said that he was going to do a research, but there has been no news so far! So I'm in a hurry, I'm sure the cousin must have found some clues in Grandpa's records! So, in the past six months, I have often stayed in this room to see some of the things that my grandfather used to write! I knew that all of my grandfather's research was related to aliens, but I couldn't find out why my cousin left home. Xiao Yu took out a notebook from the drawer of his desk, and several pages in the middle of the notebook were clearly torn off.

"If my guess is correct, my cousin must have found some important clues, maybe these clues are important or dangerous, and he didn't want us to know, so he simply ripped off the key pages in Grandpa's notebook! Gone alone! Xiaoyu said.

The more Meng Xiaofei listened, the more puzzled he became, "Xiaoyu, although we are classmates, we are not very familiar with each other, and we don't have much contact, why are you willing to tell me so many secrets about your family?" ”

"Because of Grandpa's notes!"

"Notes? Wouldn't your grandfather be a tomb robber? ”

"My grandfather never did those things!"

"However, the "notes" in my impression are basically related to tomb robbing......"

"Alas! You're poisoned by fiction. Grandpa's notes said that there was also a junior with him who was exploring and studying aliens at that time, surnamed "Meng"! The note says that this Uncle Meng has a son who is in our city. The last time Grandpa came back, it was because Uncle Meng sacrificed his life to save him! So he locked himself in this room for the last three years and did only two things! The first is repentance! He hopes to find Uncle Meng's descendants and pay a qiē in exchange for this life-saving grace! The second thing is to find out the answers they want to do their best to sacrifice Uncle Meng's spirit in the sky! ”

Xiaoyu glanced at Meng Xiaofei, "At the party that day, I heard you say that you like adventure, and you happen to be surnamed Meng, and your age is also the same as Uncle Meng's son, I have already begun to wonder if you are Uncle Meng's son!" Later, when we met at the coffee house, I dismissed the idea. However, your text message today made me affirm that that person, the Eight Achievements are you! ”
