Chapter 190: Lost Memories
In the evening, while the man was out for a short while, Star Swirl infiltrated Linlin's hospital room and turned on the energy lock's sharing function, attaching it to the girl.
This time, Star Swirl didn't see Linlin's consciousness near the bed, and she didn't know where she was wandering at the moment.
Reading Linlin's memories, Star Swirl's eyes suddenly fall into darkness, her fingers missing, and her nose smells stale.
A hand fumbled with the light switch on the wall, and the soft light finally came on. It took a while for Star Swirl's eyes to adjust to the light.
She saw a living room, not very spacious, with a few pieces of mahogany furniture that looked valuable, but all covered in gray dirt.
As Linlin walked around the room, a cloud of dust rose from the ground, as if a cloud of smoke had enveloped the entire room.
A musty smell hit the girl's nose, and she felt a little out of breath, as if the room had not been ventilated for centuries.
What did the little girl do when she came to such a strange place?
Linlin walked around the living room, her little hands waving in front of her mouth and nose to dispel the dust. Star Swirl notices that the windows in her room are covered by thick curtains, no wonder there is no light when she first enters.
"Mom, Mom, are you home?" Linlin's voice echoed through the empty room.
How could this be Linlin's home? Star Swirl's heart tightened, for she thought it was an abandoned house that had never been inhabited for years.
The unanswered girl still searched all over the room for her mother's traces, and the kitchen sink was still stacked with dishes, the remaining grease on them and the dishes themselves seemed to have merged.
The water pipes in the "tick-tock" bathroom are aging and constantly seeping outward; On the wall of the bedroom hangs a wedding photograph of a woman with a happy smile on her face.
Finally, Linlin's little hand landed on the closet handle in the bedroom, and Star Swirl's heart was already in her throat, and a strong sixth sense told her that there must be something hidden in it.
The cabinet door opened, and with a "bone" sound, a black, spherical object rolled out of it.
Is that... A human head!
A woman's head, the skin is disgustingly rotten, and the dry eyeballs look like two black holes, which looks particularly frightening.
"Mom... Mom—" Linlin's eyes widened, and a shiver spread throughout her body, and she felt the fear of death.
The girl took a few steps back from her trembling legs, and suddenly slammed into her sturdy body, and when she turned her head, she saw the man's gloomy face.
"Linlin, why did you get here?" The gentle expression that the man tried his best to make couldn't hide his facial features that had been hideous to the point of deformation.
The corners of the girl's pale face, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she suddenly used all her strength to hit the man, and the man did not dodge, but subconsciously turned sideways.
The girl seized the little space she had, and with her small size, escaped from the room, running downstairs without looking back.
"Stop!!" Behind him came the hysterical roar of a man.
Frightened and desperate, the girl stumbled forward like a bird with broken wings in the dark night, and a man was already chasing after her not far behind.
"Linlin, come back, listen to Dad...... explain" The man tried to coax the girl back, and his footsteps were about to catch up with the girl.
There was a sudden roar in her ears, and the girl's weak figure swayed twice, and she fell in a pool of blood, and the last thing she saw was the man's smiling face.
It seems that Linlin was hit by a falling object at this time, and her stepfather was so close to her, Star Swirl couldn't help but sigh that it would be nice if the person who was smashed was this man.
"Cat, you're coming to see me again?" Star Swirl suddenly hears Linlin's voice, and she immediately ends sharing her memories and the spirit returns to the hospital room.
"Linlin, your mother—" Star Swirl couldn't open her mouth, the truth was cruel for such a young child.
"Mom went on a business trip and went far away." Linlin's face showed a lonely look.
"Your stepfather told you this?" Star Swirl asks.
Linlin nodded: "But my mother won't leave me alone, he must be lying, he hid his mother!" ”
"And when was the last time you saw your mother?" Star Swirl asks.
"The last time—" the girl fell into deep thought, "Linlin doesn't remember. ”
It seems that it is very likely that the falling object caused damage to Linlin's brain, causing her to remember the scene she saw in the old mansion.
However, her stepfather is unaware of Linlin's amnesia, and in his opinion, if Linlin comes to his senses, he is likely to identify him as the murderer. Star Swirl worries that he will one day attack Linlin.
The energy lock had no reaction to Linlin's stepfather, and this sinner who had done a lot of evil deeds had no remorse. The negative energy generated by Linlin's body could not meet the conditions for purification, and Star Swirl felt that she had hit a bottleneck.
Typing in the password to indicate "return", Star Swirl returns to the apartment, where she sees Mr. X and Bai Xiaohan in the room, knowing that things have taken a new turn.
"Just when you come back, let's exchange the information we have." Bai Xiaohan said.
"Based on reading Linlin's memories, it is very likely that her stepfather killed Linlin's mother and hid her body in an abandoned apartment." Star Swirl recounts the scene she had just seen in its entirety, as she had speculated.
"It seems that this is the case," Bai Xiaohan frowned, "Today, several black plastic bags were found one after another at the garbage storage point in the nearby community, and this time there were indeed dismembered corpses in them. We've pieced together a complete female body, but we haven't found the head, which looks like it's hidden in the old mansion. ”
Star Swirl let out a "guck", feeling unpleasant, "But the energy lock didn't react to the man. ”
"Don't follow this matter, leave it to Xiaohan." Mr. X said in a deep voice, as if he didn't want Star Swirl to be involved in such a horrific and vicious affair again.
"Is that wig still there? Let me try again. Star Swirl blinked, convinced.
"Are you sure?" Bai Xiaohan was a little surprised.
Star Swirl nodded, "You might be able to find a purification in there." ”
"You don't have to push yourself." The melancholy that flashed in the blue eyes made people even more fascinated.
"Moreover, the wig seems to have escaped again..."Bai Xiaohan held a bag in his hand and shook it downward, and there was nothing inside.
Star Swirl looked down at the Energy Lock, "I can locate it, it's not far away." ”
