Chapter 18: The Crazy Woman (Part II)
When Ling Fan and Hong Feng were about to climb to the third floor, they suddenly heard a sound of footsteps coming from the corridor on the third floor, and judging from the sound of footsteps, it was not the footsteps of one person, but many people.
"........................Oooo
Hong Feng's face was solemn, and he couldn't help but reach out and touch his waist, but he was too anxious to come out, for fear of making a noise, he didn't bring handcuffs and other powerful weapons, and Ling Fan also stared at the front tightly, guessing who appeared in front of them.
Suddenly, the sound of complicated footsteps stopped, and the entire corridor became extremely quiet again, and the top of the stairs was full of darkness, Hong Feng and Ling Fan looked forward motionlessly, waiting for the approach of the footsteps.
And the things in the corridor also seemed to stop moving, if Ling Fan guessed correctly, the owner of the footsteps was leaning on the wall of the corridor at this time, and was also quietly waiting for him and Hong Feng to suddenly come out.
The two sides were at a stalemate, no one took the initiative to take the next step, and the air seemed to become stiff.
Hong Feng made a gesture towards Ling Fan, signaling Ling Fan to go upstairs first, he would keep a distance of two meters from Ling Fan, if someone sneaked up on Ling Fan from behind, Hong Feng would definitely stop it in time and take it down.
Ling Fan made a gesture of "You can't do it", he was afraid that if Hong Feng couldn't stop it, his little life would be over.
Hong Feng stretched out his right hand and made an OK international gesture, Ling Fan was still not at ease, but there was no way, it couldn't be such a stalemate, and the other party seemed to be much more patient than them, it seemed that the opponent in the corridor was really not simple.
Ling Fan cleared his throat and motioned to the people in the hallway to notice that he was going up the stairs. But every time he stepped up the stairs, Ling Fan felt as if he was one step closer to hell, his little feet were trembling, it seemed that fear was an emotion that everyone would have, there were no taboos, no taboos.
Ling Fan stepped up the last step, and he could clearly feel the sound of breathing on the side of the corridor wall, as well as the hairy feeling of a pair of eyes staring tightly.
Suddenly, a black shadow swooped out of the darkness, and then a fierce wind slashed towards Ling Fan, Ling Fan was shocked, and he was shocked by holding his head with both hands, and the black shadow seemed to be in a hurry, and then a strong wind attacked Ling Fan, Hong Feng rushed forward with a big stride, but he didn't catch the black shadow's attack, and his chest was firmly hit hard, and with a bang, Hong Feng's tall and burly body was immediately hit and fell to the floor of the corridor on the third floor.
"Tianyu, stop, how do I think that person looks like Hong Feng!"
At this time, Xiao Yu's voice suddenly sounded in the darkness, and then I saw two weak flashlight lights shooting out, and the light was reflected on Ling Fan and Hong Feng's bodies, especially Hong Feng, whose whole face was iron blue, as if the kick just now was indeed not light.
"How about the two of you?!" Tianyu exclaimed in surprise, and then ran to Ling Fan's side to help him up, while Xiao Yu helped Hong Feng up.
"Why are you two here?!" Ling Fan let out a long sigh of relief when he saw the dark shadows in the corridor after Tian Yu and Xiao Yu saw them, replaced by doubts and puzzles.
"Xiao Yu, she always couldn't worry about the woman who made a terrifying sound, and she didn't dare to come alone, so she pulled me here." After Tianyu saw that Ling Fan was fine, he explained with a smile.
"I see, did you find anything?" Ling Fan asked.
Xiao Yu shook his head, looked at Ling Fan and Hong Feng and said, "Not yet, we were just about to go to the attic in front to see what was going on, but we immediately heard movement on the stairs, so we were afraid of being discovered, so we decided to knock him unconscious, and then escape, hehe." ”
"Okay, since it's okay, let's go to the front together, and be a companion." Ling Fan said with a smile.
The dim flashlight was turned off again, and for fear of attention, the four of them cautiously walked down the corridor towards the attic, and what they didn't expect was that there was already a pair of eyes staring at them behind them, with a cold look in their eyes.
The corridor on the third floor wasn't really long, but Ling Fan felt like he had walked for a long time before coming to the attic. I saw that the door of the attic at the end of the corridor was locked by a big strong lock, and there was a small window above the door, but there was no glass on the small window, but it was inlaid with four steel rods, which made Ling Fan feel very strange, what was in the attic, he had to care about it in this way.
Ling Fan lowered his head and looked into the attic with a steel rod, but there was a black hole inside, and he couldn't see anything.
Just as Ling Fan was about to retract his head suspiciously, suddenly, there was a bang, and a disheveled head suddenly popped out, and then two miserable white hands pinched Ling Fan's neck, and in the messy hair, two eyes full of resentment shot out, and she shouted in English: "I want to kill you!" Kill you! ”
The sudden change caught everyone off guard, Ling Fan was even more shocked and his head broke out in a cold sweat, because his neck was pinched by something that suddenly appeared in the attic, his face began to turn pale, and his heart said that it was okay now, he had long wanted to put a neck sleeve on his neck, but he had not implemented it, now it was okay, and if he continued like this, his little life might be taken.
Tianyu's face also changed, and he hurriedly rushed forward, trying to rescue Ling Fan from under those hands, but the strength of those hands was surprisingly great, and even Tianyu couldn't break it, which made Tianyu anxious.
"Get out of the way!" Suddenly, a loud shout sounded behind everyone, everyone immediately looked for prestige, only to see a bright flame coming, Father Zhang held a lighter in front of the unkempt head, the unkempt head immediately seemed to see something terrible, both hands immediately threw away Ling Fan, the whole person screamed in horror, fled to the darkest place in the attic, although she couldn't see her appearance clearly, but faintly could see her body trembling, trembling with fear.
"Ahem...... Cough...... cough" As soon as the hands were loosened, Ling Fan's whole body immediately collapsed to the ground, his hands tightly covering his purple neck, if he was loosened for a while, he felt that his throat bone was going to be broken by those hands.
"Ling Fan, are you okay?! Does it hurt?! Let me see! Tianyu crouched beside Ling Fan and asked with great concern, her little face flushed with anxiety.
Ling Fan swallowed his saliva with difficulty and said with a smile: "I'm fine, really." Then Ling Fan looked up at Father Zhang, who was suddenly killed, and said, "Priest, I think you should give us an explanation for this matter." ”
Father Zhang seemed to have expected things to come to this point, he glanced at the attic, sighed, and said, "Come with me to the living room." ”
The bright light filled the entire living room, perhaps because they had been in the dark for too long, for a long time, Ling Fan and the others' eyes had not been able to adapt to the bright light in the living room, especially Ling Fan, a circle of cyan strangulation marks appeared on his neck, and it hurt to death when he touched it lightly.
At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Father Zhang, and everyone's eyes were filled with countless questions, who was the woman in the attic, where did she come from, why she was locked in the attic, why she pinched people when she saw them, etc., all the questions seemed to have been condensed in everyone's eyes, and the answer to these questions was Father Zhang in front.
Perhaps a little embarrassed to be stared at by everyone, Father Zhang moved his shoulders and said, "Actually, not only you are strange, but even I am very strange, because this woman was originally not from our Saint-Sim, but was brought back by the old priest back then. Twenty years ago, when the old priest came to Hong Kong from the United States, he did not come alone, but with a woman in her thirties, the woman in the attic.
The old priest told us that he had met this woman on his way to Hong Kong, and that he had taken her with him because he had taken her to the point where he had taken her. Originally, this woman was not locked up in the attic, but lived in a guest room, but she did have some mental problems, she caught people when she saw them, and she bit them when she saw them, and even the old priest was bitten by her many times, and there were several times when the old priest was pinched by her and almost died. But the mild-mannered old priest did not resent her, but treated her even better.
But the good times didn't last long, one day this woman suddenly set a fire in the church, shouting crazy words to burn you devils, the fire almost burned down the church of St. Sime, so everyone discussed with the old priest what to do with the woman, and everyone unanimously decided to send her to a mental hospital, but the old priest said that he did not agree, so everyone decided to temporarily decide to lock the woman in the attic at the top of the third floor of the church for the sake of safety, and then discuss the disposal later.
But the matter of disposal was delayed again and again, and the old priest did not decide until he returned to God's side, so the woman was locked up in the attic by us all the time, and every day she shouted crazy things about us, asking us to let her out, saying that we were devils or something, so the believers who did not know the truth still thought that we Saint-Sim really had some monsters. ”
"I see, it really scared us just now." Xiao Yu patted his chest and finally put down the hanging heart.
Ling Fan looked at Father Zhang's expression and didn't seem to be panicked, but although he now knew the origin of this crazy woman and why she was locked in the attic, Ling Fan still felt that there were many things he didn't understand, could it be that this crazy woman was really the old priest who came to the United States halfway? And why did that old priest come to Hong Kong from the United States, did he really just come to preach and teach?!
