Chapter 8: The Golden Statue

A gray fog obscured the view, and everything was covered with a thin veil. This kind of weather has been going on for almost a week ....

An old red jeep is driving down a narrow forest road, and even if the old jeep has turned its high beams to the maximum, it may still be no more than 10 meters away.

Grandma Yuta sat in the passenger seat of the car with a box of freshly baked biscuits, as if she was suffering from motion sickness or old age, and her face was not very good.

The driver was a man in his early thirties, with a messy beard, giving people a very honest and cordial feeling.

"I'm really bothering you."

For every child who was adopted from the Olisses Orphanage, Grandma Juta would visit her a week later with a box of hot biscuits.

Sam smiled magnanimously, "It's okay, it's not safe for you to visit me alone in this weather." ”

Sam also received such a box of hot biscuits more than 20 years ago.....

"I don't know if Grindelwald's kid caused trouble to the family...."The corners of Grandma Yuta's mouth first rose a little unconsciously when she mentioned Grindelwald, and then looked out the foggy window with a little worry.

"Don't worry, Grandma Yuta, which of the children you brought out is not well-behaved and sensible!"

Grandma Jutta looked at Sam, then rolled her eyes, "You were the most fussy back then, and you ran away from home and ran back to the orphanage in the middle of the night." That being said, Grandma Yuta's face did not have any sense of blame, but was full of nostalgia.

Sam scratched the back of his head and tried to ease the embarrassment, "Didn't you miss you and everyone...", and then it seemed to change the subject, "Anyway, recently, that little cub in my family doesn't know where to go wild, and I haven't seen anyone for two or three days." ”

"Then don't hurry up and look for it, I'll walk back by myself for the rest of the way!" As she spoke, Grandma Yuta reached out to unbuckle her seat belt, and Grandma Yuta, who had brought her child for so many years, knew best the anxiety she felt when her child was missing.

Sam hurriedly grabbed Grandma Yuta's hand and said, "That kid has been like this several times, and Tie must have gone to the city with a few other children to go wild again." He came back to see that I didn't beat him..... Grandma Juta, here, it should be here. ”

As he spoke, an extremely vague black shadow of a two-story building appeared in the mist. Fortunately, it is by the lake, and it is really difficult to find it in the mountains in this kind of weather.....

"I'll just go down, it's really hard for you."

"Then I'll just wait in the car." Sam waved his hand absently, signaling Grandma Jutta to hurry up, and the biscuits should be cold in a while.

After Grandma Yuta disappears into the fog, Sam opens the window and lights a cigarette.

"Why hasn't that stinky boy come back yet....."

....

Grandma Jutta walked slowly to the front of the house, and only then did she see the whole house.....

The house was dilapidated, with moss and mushrooms overgrown in some hard-to-clean areas, and cobwebs at the corners of the ceiling. It looks like it hasn't been cleaned in a long time.....

Luckily, the lights were on, and there were several skins of unknown animals and some jerky drying by the door, so at least the couple's address was not fictitious.

'It looks like the couple are hunters, but they don't look like they're dressed.....

Confused, Grandma Yuta tried to knock on the door a few times, but the door creaked open.....

"Anyone?" Grandma Yuta tried to shout into the house, but it was eerily quiet, as if it were a black hole, and there was no echo of the sound.

A gust of wind blew from the house in response, mixed with a disgusting smell of blood and rancidity.....

Grandma Jutta trembled towards the house, fear making her want to run away, but there was another force that kept her going.

In the dining room, countless flies fluttered around the table, the corpse of a female child was cut and placed on the table, and on the wall hung more than a dozen golden statues of children of various ages with sturdy heads.

The flies seemed to be bound by some kind of force, constantly hitting the air in the dining room and hallway area.

"....." Grandma Juta covered her mouth so that the scream would not come out, and her eyes were full of horror. Several of those heads were children who had been adopted in recent years.....

Grindelwald, on the other hand, was lying on the table, his chest rising and falling with his breathing, and in front of him was the calf of an unknown animal, which seemed to have been eaten several times. Mr. and Mrs. George were now on their backs with their chests exploding, blood splattering everywhere in the restaurant, their faces full of joy and madness, and their limbs turning into several tangled sticky tentacles.

Grandma Juta's legs trembled through the wall of air, and a strong sense of being spied over Grandma Yuta's whole body was enveloped by this indescribable fear, which made it possible to go into a state of madness at any time. Grandma Jutta bit her lower lip to keep herself awake, blood pouring from her teeth and lips.

Grandma Juta held her breath and walked to Grindelwald's side, and actually picked up Grindelwald, you must know that Grandma Jutta is so tired that she screams back pain even when she carries more than ten pounds of things on weekdays, not to mention a child of nearly a hundred pounds.....

After picking up Grindelwald, Grandma Yuta's body no longer trembled, her eyes were full of determination, and her feet walked towards the corridor step by step. Intuition tells Grandma Yuta that as long as she leaves this restaurant, she will be safe for the time being.

After escaping through the transparent walls that were as sticky as a swamp and outside, Grandma Yuta immediately sat down on the ground, panting for breath for the rest of her life, beads of sweat the size of beans pouring out of her forehead.

I didn't see anything, just the feeling of being skimmed by the corner of my eye made people's sanity almost collapse.... What kind of horror is that?

Grandma Juta looked at the blood stains on Grindelwald's body, frowned with a rare sad expression, and then ruthlessly punched Grindelwald's eye socket a few times, and then used her fingernails to cut a few wounds on Grindelwald's arm.

Then, as if he had made up his mind, he picked up Grindelwald and walked towards the jeep, "Help, save this child!" ”

Uncle Sam hurriedly ran out of the car after hearing Grandma Juta's cry for help, and when he saw Grindelwald's wounds, he was so angry that his beard exploded: "Another brute who abuses children, see if I don't teach them a lesson!" So saying, he rolled up his sleeves and went inside.

"They're not at home today, this child's injuries are serious, let's send the child back first!" As she spoke, tears began to flow from the corners of her eyes, and there were faint signs of bursting the embankment.

"This brute! The next time I see them, I can't cut them! ”

Grandma Yuta did not choose the co-pilot position this time, but chose the rear seat, which is more prone to motion sickness....
