(10) The cursed family
After finding the address of the family of three in the video, we drove there.
Hunter rang the doorbell.
After pressing for a long time, the man and woman in the video came to open the door in a panic.
Explain the meaning.
"We didn't hire any detectives!"
The woman said alarmedly.
"The fee has already been paid, and our investigation is also to solve your troubles."
I just thought she was afraid of asking the detective to spend money, so as to avoid her worries.
"Who would pay a detective for us?"
The woman looked stunned.
"My client is mysterious, maybe he's some kind of relative of yours!"
I'm talking nonsense.
"Didn't you post a video asking for help? We're here to help you! ”
Hunter Gang Tone.
"I probably know who invited them! Let them look it up! See if you can help us with this! ”
The man in the video interjects.
"He probably knows who invited us?" How could it be, I muttered to myself, but Hunter didn't pay attention to the words and followed them through the door.
The house was very dark, and the windows were tightly covered by curtains, which had an eerie feeling.
"What about the kids? Did you go to school? ”
I sounded the video of that child.
"I didn't go to school, so I hid in my room!"
The man sighed.
Following him, he entered a small bedroom.
He turned on the light, and it was drowsy, no better than when it was off.
The room was small, with a small bed, a small desk, a closet.
I looked around and there was no child in sight.
The man opens the closet.
"Ahh A scream came from inside the closet.
That's when I saw the little girl in the video, huddled in the corner of the closet, hiding behind hanging clothes.
Instead, her father, who opened the closet, screamed in fright.
"Honey, it's okay! They are all here to help us! ”
The hostess ran in when she heard the sound, hugged the little girl and comforted her.
"What is it that makes this family so scared?"
I asked in my heart.
Coming to the living room, the three of us sat on the couch.
The woman poured us two glasses of water.
"How is it cold?"
Hunter took a sip from his cup and spit it out.
"No way, it's cursed, there will be accidents when boiling water!"
She stretched out her arms and rolled up her sleeves to show us, and even though the light was dim, we could make out that there were large burns on her arms.
"It's okay! Cold water is also OK! ”
To avoid embarrassment, I answered, and motioned for her to sit down as well.
"What's going on?"
To ease their nerves, I try to make my voice sound less domineering than usual.
"It's too evil, it's terrible!"
The woman is still emotionally stressed.
I looked at Xiang and motioned for him to speak.
The man nodded.
"It all started twenty days ago. That day my daughter was playing with a toy at home when her hand was cut. The wound was not serious, and we didn't care, just thought that the child was naughty, and gave her a simple treatment of the wound. After the wound is treated, the child continues to play with toys on his own. After a while, her leg was also scratched by a toy! I sensed the evil and threw the toys in the trash. She was bandaged and carried to bed, only to have her forehead cut in the corner of the bed. From that day on, strange things happened in my house, my wife went down the stairs and twisted her foot; When it was time for her to boil the water, the kettle suddenly flew up and burned her arm; While she was taking a shower, the water in the shower suddenly heated up, scalding her skin.... There have been dozens of these incidents, large and small. The daughter also fell down the stairs at school. Although she didn't have any major injuries, she was too scared to go out! ”
The man said with a pained expression.
"This is really evil!"
Hunter listened intently.
"It's indeed an evil sect!"
I smiled.
"It's not just these things, but what's even more evil is that you're not hurt, right?"
From his account, I heard the clues. I found out that it was his wife and daughter who were hurt, and he himself was not hurt, so I continued to ask the man.
The man nodded in approval.
"Oh! That's it! It's really evil! ”
Hunter Gang Tone.
"Are these things all accidents?"
I then asked.
"The police came to investigate, and it was indeed all an accident."
The woman's emotions were also slowly relieved.
"I think we're cursed by someone!"
The corners of the man's mouth twitched, accenting on the word "curse."
Leave this family of three.
"Where do we start investigating?"
Hunt said he couldn't start.
"There is no evidence, how can this be checked! The police also said that these things were all accidents. Perhaps it was their psychological factors that caused these accidents, and it is not uncommon for them to think that someone is cursing them, so they keep doing this self-suggestion, and it is not uncommon for the subconscious to cause deviations in behavior. ”
I calmly analyzed.
"Murphy's Law?"
He looked at him blankly.
"Murphy's Law is that if a person thinks things are going in a bad direction, then there must be behaviors that lead to a bad direction."
I added.
"If it's really Murphy's Law. It is still possible to cause one or two accidents. But both mother and daughter have experienced dozens of such bizarre accidents! What's even weirder is that the man didn't have these accidents! ”
"Maybe this man gave his wife and daughter some kind of psychotropic drugs, causing them to have an accident in a trance!"
I can only think of this reasonable explanation when I am alive.
"No, this family looks loving!"
He is kind-hearted and probably doesn't think that a family that seems to love each other on the surface will kill each other.
"It's just a guess! Having said that, this case is really impossible to start! ”
I sighed.
"I think it's the power of the curse, magic! Sorcery! ”
He believed more in the person's claim that he was "cursed".
"Curse this unscientifically proven thing, nonsense!"
I never believed that in my heart.
"Maybe we can get a wizard to consult!"
He suggested.
"Come on! Those wizards are all tricks of burning people's hair, drawing magic arrays and pretending to curse others. In fact, these actions will not cause any harm to the cursed! ”
I don't believe that those sorcerers can hurt people in the air, and if they can, why not kill those politicians every day with the power of the curse?
"Shall we consult with a scientist then?"
He smiled and proposed again.
"Do you have the right person?"
Seeing Hunter laugh suddenly, I knew he had other plans.
He smiled mysteriously and nodded.
I read his excitement from his smile and defined him in my heart.
"The scientist you're looking for is a chick?"
I tried to prove my conjecture.
"All in the middle! It's a big beauty! Chinese female doctor! The daughter of the famous electromagnetic physicist Zhou Yang is called Zhou Qing. She is a female doctor under the age of 30, and she was a professor at Princeton University before returning to China. ”
I guessed the whole thing, and he excitedly introduced the woman's situation.
"Famous physicist Zhou Yang?"
Hearing the name Zhou Yang, my heart trembled.
"That's right, that Chinese female doctor who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2036! Zhou Qing is her daughter! That figure, really, really, great! Oriental charm! ”
Hunter replied with a dancing hand.
What made my heart tremble was not the Zhou Qing, but the name Zhou Yang.
It's a name that feels very familiar to me.
This familiarity does not come from the memories of this 22-year-old me. It is the memory of the Chinese born in 1990 in the body.
In my memory, Zhou Yang was a girl in her twenties, and the face of a beautiful and delicate Chinese girl appeared in my mind. Her relationship with the Chinese who lives in my body should be very good.
They seem to be friends, and they go beyond the relationship of friends. It seems to be a lover, but it doesn't seem to be.
I'm not sure what the fragments are in my head.
"That's terrible! It seems to prove what academic questions related to what gravitational waves! He is a famous electromagneticist! ”
Hunter continued.
"Zhou Qing is even better! It's a big beauty! ”
He added excitedly.
Looking at Hunter's excitement, I was amused by his divine logic. When it comes to Zhou Yang, she is an outstanding physicist, and when it comes to Zhou Yang's daughter, she just says that she is even better! And the even better reason is because she is a big beauty. It's really spring!
But then again, since this Ms. Zhou Qing is the daughter of Ms. Zhou Yang, who has a close relationship with me, I also want to meet her.
"Let's go! Don't be stupid and excited! Lead the way! Let's meet the beautiful woman you mentioned! ”
I patted Hunter on the shoulder.
