Chapter 21: Happy Death Day
[You've got the key clue (1/3): Lily's teddy bear]
Since the mission of the night of the murderous house began, Chu Ge and the others have been trying to find key clues, but they didn't expect that this teddy bear is one of the key clues.
"Huh?"
Chu Ge took the blood-stained teddy bear out of the bathtub and felt that this teddy bear was very familiar.
He soon remembered that Lily always liked to hold her in her arms when she took pictures, so there would also be a teddy bear in the photo.
The blood on the teddy bear was very fresh, and Chu Ge didn't need to guess to know that it was Mingyue's.
However, apart from the blood on the teddy bear, there was no blood around it, and there were no signs of a fight.
Why is that?
As if nothing had happened in the entire bathroom, Mingyue evaporated out of thin air, leaving only this blood-stained teddy bear.
It was the last clue left by Mingyue for them.
After the death of Mingyue Qingfeng, the quest is not over, this murderous house is supposed to complete the task as long as one of them clears the game, although the player who dies first, the reward will be relatively small, but it can also clear the dungeon.
Pokerface crouched down and looked around with a magnifying glass, looking for some clues, when he saw some white ash on the ground.
He took off his gloves and rubbed them, the ashes didn't seem to be supposed to be here.
"Eh, what is this?"
Chu Ge carefully examined the teddy bear again, and when he turned the teddy bear over, he found a tag on the teddy bear's neck, which read: Lily's teddy bear, 0626.
Chu Ge remembered the happy birthday on the chest of the teddy bear, and he immediately understood that this should be Lily's birthday gift, and 0626 was her birthday!
"That four-digit password ......"
Chu Ge took the teddy bear and walked downstairs, and Poker Face and Xiaoxue also followed him. Chu Ge came to the safe, entered the password, and successfully opened the safe.
[Obtain a mutilated diary and a strange music box]
Inside the safe was a worn-out diary and a music box, and the mutilated diary reminded one of the pages of the previous diary, and it seems that the two pages were torn from this diary!
So Xiaoxue took out the diary, and Chu Ge took out the strange music box.
He opened the box and turned the clockwork, and inside there a small figure slowly rose, and to the familiar sound of music, the little man danced.
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you......"
Chu Ge's expression was surprised, because this music turned out to be a well-known birthday song.
With this familiar music, Xiaoxue opened the diary, and the family's past was gradually revealed in front of them.
The diary started a few years ago, when the Albert family moved here to start a new life. They are a happy family of three, the father is a doctor in the hospital, the mother is a teacher, and the daughter is lively and lovely, and it is an enviable and perfect family.
Such peaceful days lasted only a few years, and a catastrophe soon shattered the perfect family.
May 18th, Lily's birthday is two months away, and I don't know what gift she wants.
On May 28th, the work has been really busy lately, and those students are becoming more and more disobedient.
On June 7th, Lily grew taller again, thinking that she was so young when she was born, and now she is a lovely little girl.
......
The diary is full of daily life and her own mood recorded by her mother, and it can be seen that their family is still very warm. However......
On June 25th, tomorrow is Lily's birthday, and we plan to take her to the amusement park, and Albert and I have already prepared a gift, hoping that she will like it.
The diary on June 26 seemed to be interrupted, and the mother did not write. Xiaoxue's brows furrowed slightly, did something happen that day?
"Boom-"
"Boom-"
"Boom-"
Suddenly, the bell rang for three o'clock in the morning, and the music in the music box continued, but gradually, the tone of the birthday song began to change.
Its pitch seemed to have suddenly dropped a key, and it was pressed down again, and the originally cheerful melody became sad and depressing, and the strange melody echoed in the living room, sounding a little uncomfortable.
Not only that, but the movements of the villain in the music box have also changed.
Originally, the villain's dancing movements were very beautiful, but as the melody of the birthday song changed, her movements suddenly became a little stiff, her arms gradually twisted, and her head spun in a strange circle!
Xiaoxue was taken aback by this scene, she couldn't help but close the music box, and the transposed birthday song came to an abrupt end.
"I haven't finished listening yet, why did you close it?" Chu Ge said unhappily.
"Captain, don't you think this melody is scary?" Xiaoxue's expression was a little scared.
"Cut, what's scary about this, you want to hear scary, I recommend you to listen to "Requiem for a Confession", "The Thirteenth Pair of Eyes", "Black Friday", "My Sister Carries a Doll", "Wedding Dress", ......"
"Okay, okay, captain, I beg you to stop talking!" Xiaoxue's face was not very good, and she continued to look down.
June 27th, why!why!
Why would Heaven be so unfair, how nice it would have been if it hadn't been for that car accident, my Lily, my dear daughter, Mommy sorry for you......
I see.
Why didn't my mother keep a diary on June 26th?
Because Lily died in a car accident that day, June 26 is both her birthday and her death day!
"So, the music in the music box is not to wish you a happy birthday, but to wish you a happy death day?" Chu Ge said.
Xiaoxue ignored Chu Ge, she continued to flip through the diary, the contents of the diary ended on the 27th, and when she turned it back, she could see that there were traces of tearing off, and three pages were artificially torn off.
Xiaoxue put the two fragments of the diary that she had found earlier into the diary, and the torn off shapes coincided, which meant that they only needed to find the last page to get a complete diary.
"This journal is definitely a key clue. Pokerface said.
Chu Ge and Xiaoxue nodded, and when they arrived here, the clues had gradually become clear.
The family originally lived a happy and joyful life, and on the day of their birthday, they took their daughter to an amusement park for her birthday.
But what they didn't expect was that a car accident took their daughter's life, on the day of her birthday.
After the death of the daughter, both husband and wife were very uncomfortable, and the father was more like a breakdown, began to indulge in the occult and alchemy, went insane, and was imprisoned in the Arkham asylum, and later it is not known how he escaped.
He doesn't seem to be getting better when he returns, he becomes even more crazy and wants to resurrect their dead daughter, but his mother refuses, and a fierce argument breaks out between the two.
"Do you think they succeeded in the end?" asked Xiaoxue.
"I think they must have succeeded, Lily has been in this villa since she was resurrected, and our danger comes from this little girl. Chu Ge said.
"It's also possible that his parents, aren't her parents also dead?" Xiaoxue said.
"That's what we don't know, how and why her parents died. Chu Ge said.
Just when Chu Ge and Xiaoxue were discussing the clues, Poker Face didn't speak, as if he was silently thinking about something.
He glanced at the clock in the living room, and the hands were already pointing to 3:20.
With less than three hours left until dawn, time is running out for them!
