Xia Yi found that he was also a little familiar with this study.

But he obviously hadn't been here.

When he was here as a teacher, he was not allowed to come up to the third floor.

Frowning, Xia Yi pondered for a long time before finding a familiar source from his memory.

He'd seen it in his dreams!

It was a dream he had when he was still in the Western-style Pavilion.

In the dream, a ten-year-old girl, together with a middle-aged man in his thirties, folded a thousand paper cranes.

It wasn't an ordinary dream, it was the result of a psychic talent activation!

In other words, one of the things in that dream was a sludge monster.

That man in his thirties is a sludge monster?

The time of the two psychic dreams is different, so the sludge monster is a teenager in the dream by the well, and the dream in the study becomes middle-aged?

Xia Yi felt that he had made a mistake, the appearance of the young man in the dream by the well, although he was still handsome, was far less handsome than the middle-aged handsome in the dream of the study.

So neither of these are actually sludge monsters?

Using the elimination method, there is only one possibility left for the true body of the Sludge Monster.

Xia Yi took two steps back and looked at the mud monster in astonishment.

You're a girl!

The sludge monster tilted its head to look at him.

Xia Yi calmed down and squinted at the mud monster: "What kind of cuteness are you selling, even if you were a sister when you were alive, you are just an ugly mud monster now." ”

The mud monster's eyes flashed red, and he reached into his body and threw Xia Yi's canned fruit to the ground.

Get angry and throw you cans.

Xia Yi picked up the can and wanted to stuff it back, but the sludge monster dodged and refused to cooperate.

The temper is quite big.

Xia Yi opened the can and ate it in the study.

From the information in the dream, it can be inferred that the mud monster was originally the young lady of the Hongjia Mansion.

So, how did He kill people in the Hongjia Mansion?

Xia Yi became curious.

He looked at the desk in the center of the study.

The desk has a total of five drawers and a cabinet, and Xia Yi opened them one by one.

There was a cardboard box with a big head in the cabinet, and when I opened the cardboard box, inside was a doll.

Looking at the worn-out degree of the carton, this doll is a few years old.

Putting the doll back, Xia Yi rummaged through the drawers.

There are some ledgers in the drawers, and the expenses for each month are very well written.

But the paper is also very old.

When he turned to the fourth drawer, Xia Yi saw a withered flower.

He touched it, and the flower shattered.

It seems that this desk has not been used for a long time.

Closing the fourth drawer, Xia Yi grabbed the fifth.

He jerked hard, but he couldn't move.

This drawer has a lock.

There's an axe in the storage room, go get an axe to pick the lock?

Xia Yi thought for two seconds, rummaging through the first four drawers.

Usually this kind of key will be hidden in a separate drawer.

Sure enough, a minute later, Xia Yi found the key from the bottom drawer.

He took the key and was about to open the lock, when he found the sludge monster crouching down and looking at the drawer.

Xia Yi decided to play with the Sludge Monster, and he handed the key to the Sludge Monster: "You come and open it." ”

The Sludge took the key and poked it into the keyhole.

Click-

The key hit the keyhole and didn't get inside.

The Sludge tried again, this time further away from the keyhole.

After two failures, the Sludge became cautious, took the key, and gestured in front of the lock for five seconds.

Click-

The key is crooked again.

Xia Yi sighed, the sludge monster is a woman after all, and she has no talent for this kind of thing.

He took the key from the sludge monster's hand, and with an easy stab, he stabbed inside.

He twisted harder, and the lock let out a groan.

He opened the drawer.

In the drawer is a wire-bound notebook and a few pens.

Picking up the notebook, Xia Yi flipped through it, and the title page of the notebook read "Nini Weekly".

Is this the name of the Sludge Monster?

Xia Yi looked at the text.

"October 10, 1918

I waited outside for a long time, drank two pots of tea, and finally heard the baby's cry and my daughter was born. Her little face is wrinkled, it is really not good-looking, and her mother said that the little babies she just gave birth are like this, and it is good when they are older. I breathed a sigh of relief, I wouldn't like it if it was ugly all the time.'"

"October 19, 1918

My father came back and named my daughter Hui Xian, I don't like the name, what age is it now. My daughter's name should be my name. I like the word Nie, Anne, Jenny, Bonnie, how trendy. But it is not right to rebel against my father now, and when he is old, I will wait for the opportunity.'

Xia Yi flipped through quickly, this is a stupid father's self-description, although he writes two words of weekly notes, sometimes he can't remember it once a month, and sometimes he remembers it several times a week.

Flipping to the end, Xia Yi found a photo.

It was a family photo, black and white.

Xia Yi found the silt monster inside and judged that the time when the photo was taken should be three or four years earlier than the dream by the well, and five or six years later than the dream in the study.

Go back and study it slowly.

He clipped the picture back into his diary, slipped it into the sludge monster's body, and took the opportunity to touch it deeply.

The sludge monster reacted immediately, and the flowing silt squeezed Xia Yi's hand out.

Xia Yi withdrew his hand and looked at the mud monster angrily: "Do you think I will call you Nini?" You are delusional! Sludge Monster! ”

Xia Yi thought that the Sludge Monster would throw something to vent his anger, but this time the Sludge Monster was very quiet.

"What's wrong?" Xia Yi leaned towards the sludge monster and reached out to touch the sludge monster's head.

The father in the diary, Xia Yi has not seen in the foreign pavilion, probably dead.

One person and one mud stayed in the study in silence.

"Grandma!" Suddenly, a woman's voice came from outside the door.

At the sound of the sound, the sludge's frozen body moved, and its eyes looked in the direction of the sound, and the red in his eyes darkened.

Xia Yi noticed the Mud Monster's actions, and he came to the door curiously and peeked at the woman in the corridor.

After seeing the other party's face clearly, he was surprised.

Although the woman outside is much older, Xia Yi can still recognize that the other party is the girl who played with the mud monster in the dream by the well.

The girl, along with the boy who dreamed by the well, was in the family portrait.

They are supposed to be the brother and sister of the Sludge Monster.

In the dream, the Sludge Monster had a good relationship with them.

But it seems to be different now.

Xia Yi looked at the mud monster's eyes, which were red and bloody.

No matter how you look at it, it's not a friendly expression.

The woman called around upstairs, but did not find the grandmother, and went downstairs.

The sludge monster was still staring in the direction of the woman's last movement, and he didn't move, and the mud on his body was surging, and he almost wrote his displeasure on his body.

Xia Yi scratched his head and walked around the sludge monster.

Eventually, he stopped in front of the Sludge Monster.

He opened his arms and hugged the sludge.

I don't know what's going on, and although you don't fit my aesthetics, I'll comfort you.

Let you take advantage of it and be happy.

The sludge monster retracted his gaze and looked at Xia Yi.

Slowly, as if cautiously, he raised his hand and wrapped it around Xia Yi's back.
