"Hao Rui," the thin woman called out the boy's name with a straight face, "Did you go to the balcony without permission again?" ”

The boy didn't answer, just shook his head silently.

"Hao Rui, you have to listen to your mother, wait for us..." The woman was just halfway through her words when there was a sudden sound of wooden planks rubbing in her ears.

Immediately afterward, the whole room suddenly shook violently, the furniture made a "click" sound, and the sound of tableware colliding in the cupboards was heard. The chandelier above his head shook violently, and the shadows danced like ghosts.

What's going on? Is it a paranormal phenomenon?

The woman's pale face was full of fear, and the boy who was sitting calmly on the ground at the moment smiled strangely as he looked at her.

The woman hastily closed the closet door, exited the bedroom, and locked it again with the key. Star Swirl notices that she is rubbing the beads on her wrist.

The Energy Lock suddenly lights up as a warning, and Star Swirl knows that the possession time is coming to an end. Nowadays, the Energy Lock can also use the possession function on subjects who do not react, but the possession time is very short.

Back in the police car parked outside the apartment, Star Swirl tells Bai Xiaohan about the situation.

After listening to Star Swirl's words, Bai Xiaohan frowned and was silent for a while, "According to the background check in the past two days, this couple should have no children, could it be that they are involved in human trafficking organizations?" ”

"What the hell is going on with this couple?" Star Swirl was curious because he had not been able to read the skinny woman's memories.

The man, surnamed Liu, had become involved in gambling a year earlier, and he lost his job for it. In fact, he and the old man have not been in contact with each other for a long time, but he suddenly came to the old man half a year ago, and the three of them have lived in this apartment since then. ”

"Well," Star Swirl said thoughtfully, "could it be because this man has been in debt and has been eyeing the old man's fortune?" ”

"I think so too," Bai Xiaohan nodded approvingly, "It's just that it's not clear why the old man agreed to live with them." ”

"Is there an agreement to support the elderly?" Star Swirl asks.

Bai Xiaohan opened the car door: "You wait for me here, the kid upstairs can't be left alone." ”

"Don't you still have a search warrant?"

"Let's just get it." Bai Xiaohan closed the car door with a "bang" and walked towards the apartment building firmly.

"Is she too deep into the play?" Star Swirl held her cheeks in deep thought, and Bai Xiaohan, who played the role of a policewoman, seemed to take the case more and more seriously.

After knocking on the door, the thin woman poked her head out. After seeing the person clearly, his face was timid, and he tensed his face and asked, "Officer, what's the matter?" ”

"Can you let me go in and have a look again? There is something that needs to be reconfirmed. She asked, struggling to maintain an amiable attitude.

"Didn't you just come yesterday? There's nothing in there, what exactly are you going to investigate? ”

"There is a room that has not been confirmed, I hope you can cooperate, if there is really nothing in it, as long as it is confirmed, in the future, someone will call the police and say that there is a problem here, and we will explain it to them."

"Is anyone calling the police again?" The woman really couldn't figure it out.

"yes, the neighbor who called the police said he heard some strange noises..."

"Someone called the police again? Is there an end? At this time, the fat man walked up the stairs and appeared behind Bai Xiaohan.

"She wants to go in again." The skinny woman winked at the fat man.

"It's really annoying, who called the police? The aunt next door? The fat man cried out through gritted teeth.

"There were several of them." Bai Xiaohan tried to prevaricate.

"Why are there so many idlers in this apartment? Okay, just see, but this is the last time. The man said in a sneering voice.

Bai Xiaohan nodded in thanks, glanced at the time, eight fifty o'clock.

"Please open this door." Bai Xiaohan pointed to the closed bedroom door and said.

The thin woman reluctantly retrieved the key from the drawer and turned the door hinge, her fingers trembling a little. The door was opened, and the room was quiet, and there seemed to be nothing unusual except for the messy clutter.

"How's it going, officer, okay?" The woman is clasped around her arms and still wears Buddhist beads on her wrists.

Bai Xiaohan's face sank like water, leaned down and suddenly began to move the cardboard box placed in front of the closet.

"Hey, what are you going to do?!" The woman let out a shrill cry, and the fat man looked out the window with a gloomy face.

There was a police car parked downstairs, and there seemed to be a man sitting in the back of the car, who knew that he couldn't do anything to the police in the room at this time.

With a "bang", the closet is opened, and instead of the thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy that Star Swirl was talking about, there is a white plastic bag lying quietly.

"Cement..."Bai Xiaohan opened it and looked at it, "What are you using it for?" ”

"Have you seen enough of the use, the repair of this dilapidated house?" There seemed to be a bruise on the man's forehead.

Suddenly, there was another sound of wooden planks rubbing around, followed by the clutter on the floor. Is this what is called a "paranormal phenomenon"? Where did the boy Star Swirl see go in an instant?

Taking advantage of the panic of the two, Bai Xiaohan lifted the mattress of the only single bed in the room, took out a metal hook from his pocket, and pierced the pointed end into the wooden board under the mattress, pulling it up, the edge of the wooden board was pulled up, and the black cement below was revealed.

In the interrogation room, the fat man surnamed Liu had already given up his argument and said frankly:

"Originally, my arrears were only about five million, but before I knew it, it rolled over to more than 10 million. I was so scared that I couldn't pay back the money I borrowed from my colleagues and friends, and I was fired from the company because of this.

When I couldn't think of a solution, I thought of my aunt, who I had heard from another uncle, who had passed away, who had inherited my uncle's inheritance and who should have a lot of cash on hand.

So I went to my aunt, and when she saw that I was being swept away by the landlord, she let us stay at her house for the time being. I knew that my aunt had always been lonely, so she didn't have any wariness of us, but said that we should help each other when we were in trouble.

It's just that... I was constantly being threatened by debt collectors trying to find a place for my aunt to put her money. But she didn't seem to trust the bank and hid the cash at home. I sneaked through a lot of places and couldn't find them, and then I was really upset.

Then that day came, I had already drunk a little too much, and I quarreled with my aunt over money, and finally pulled her by the collar and asked her where to hide the money. ”

Therefore, the old man had a bad heart, and the sudden change in her nephew's attitude hit her so hard that she died of a heart attack.

However, what surprised them the most was that in the next moment, the bedroom door that was originally locked was suddenly opened with a "bang", and a person walked out of it.
