"Not exactly, your grandfather and I were close friends, and it was only after his death that you were entrusted to me to raise you."

"What's Grandpa's name?"

"His name is Yu Cha, I met him after I left my first boyfriend, he took very good care of me, often shushed the cold and asked for warmth, and even said that he wanted to marry me, but I rejected him, because I really couldn't invest in another relationship at that time, and for many years afterward, I have been avoiding Yu Cha's love."

"But Yu Cha didn't care about my attitude, he still cared for me wholeheartedly, like a big brother. When I was in my 50s, I suddenly wrote to him that he was seriously ill, that we were not in the same city at the time, and that Yu Qia was already married. When I got the news, I hurried to his city, and the first thing I saw when I arrived was your mother. ”

"Yu Cha lived in a very remote city before his death, and because of the long distance, I didn't make it to see him for the last time. After the funeral, your mother was left without a single relative, you were not born at the time, and your father had to leave her to work. ”

"In order to repay Yu Cha's kindness, I volunteered to stay with your mother, take care of her, comfort her, and wait until you are born for the full moon before I return to my hometown."

"Was I with you at the time?" Yaya asked.

"No, you came to me five months later, I don't know who sent you here, and that morning I heard a cry at the door, and found you, along with a letter, placed at my door. The handwriting on the letter is exactly the same as that of the dead Yu Cha. The letter said that your parents died in an accident, so please let me take you in and raise you, and at first I didn't believe such a ridiculous thing. ”

"I thought it was your parents who cruelly abandoned you, because I knew that their living conditions were very poor at that time, but when I went around and investigated, I found out that what the letter said was actually the truth, and that there was really such a cruel thing in the world? In just half a year, you lost your grandfather and parents in a row. That's why I'm naming you after myself, which means reminding myself to love you like my granddaughter and give you a happy life for the rest of your life. ”

"I've been reluctant to tell you about the past, just because I'm afraid that you will be sad and leave a psychological shadow." When Tang Meiya said this, she was already in tears, her eyes were full of love for Yaya, which is a true relative's feelings.

This kind of look moved Yaya, and she unconsciously got into her grandmother's arms and said, "No matter what? I think you're my real grandmother, and that won't change for the rest of my life! As if she was confessing to her heart, Yaya said in a very low voice.

"Xiao Heng, why are you coming back?" The voice seemed to come from his own head, so clear, so dark, like the person he loved many years ago.

"I hope to find traces of love...... Yan Muheng replied, his voice so hoarse that he could barely hear clearly.

It took a long time for the man on the other side to reply, "You can't find it, everything in the past has disappeared in that white cage, and you can't find it again." ”

"No, I've seen Dreads and Sissy, and you're not far from me...... I've seen a man in the house who looks like you, and he might be you......"

"Impossible, I don't exist anymore, you go back! Don't set foot here again, please! ”

As the words fell, the blurred shadows on the opposite side gradually faded into the inky leaves.

"Don't go, I still have something to say, I'm finally back, I don't want to do anything eternal, I just want to be with you!" Yan Muheng couldn't take care of his throat, and shouted loudly: "It was my mistake to leave back then, I shouldn't have listened to my mother, please, give me another chance, okay?!" ”

There was no response, but the shadow stayed in a place where it was out of sight, as if it was luring Yan Muheng to chase after him.

Yan Muheng's feet let go of all hesitation, and the moment before stepping into the quagmire, the man's eyes were full of lost shadows, completely unaware of the danger he was about to face.

——

The body slowly rises from the ground. The strength seemed to return in an instant, and the man named Eternal smiled again, and he was victorious again, in that dark place.

No one will pay attention to what Yan Muheng has done? And no one will be aware of his presence, everything is safe because of the protection of the stupid, and also because of the endless control.

'Yan Muheng, you will never know what happened to you! And I will punish the people in this house for eternity, and the sins of the past can never be hidden in the depths of memory! ”

The man thought as he moved his hands and feet. He finally made a shot once, and he definitely couldn't waste it.

Walking out from a much warmer place than outside, the man was going to leave here first, and then enter from another place, and by the way, see how the bureau he had arranged just now was going.

He couldn't find a part of his memory, and that part would disappear with the person who entered the dark forest, but the man didn't care, as long as he could get out.

The boss is a man, he can't rush to block Xixi, just when he was in a hurry, the proprietress appeared at the door of the room and bumped into Xixi.

The proprietress hugged Xixi and said, "Xixi, if you want to go downstairs, you can put on the down coat in my box, that dress is big, and it is just wrapped around your down jacket." It's too cold down there. ”

The proprietress is kind, and Cissy understands that they are not the ones who will be involved in the murder, although the fear in her heart makes her tremble, but she still has her senses. The little girl did not resist, and lay in the arms of the proprietress like a kitten and did not move.

The proprietress motioned to her husband to hurry up and open the box and take the clothes out. Within a few minutes, the proprietress let go of Sissy's body, helped her put on her coat, and then walked downstairs with the little girl wrapped like a ball.

The proprietress asked, "Sissy, what the hell is going on?" Why would you be abandoned at the back door of a restaurant? ”

"I don't know...... It was as if he had saved me, and he didn't want me to stay in a place where the murderer was there, so he pushed me into the snow...... I also misunderstood that he was trying to kill me......"

"And then, Sissy?"

"Then he picked me up from behind and took me to the back door of the restaurant before leaving, and I saw him smash the ice off the back door of the restaurant."

Sissy's words made the proprietress feel that something seemed wrong, and she kept an eye on the little girl's feet to prevent her from falling. While continuing to ask, "Where were you pushed out of the treacherous house by him?" ”

“…… I didn't see it clearly, it seemed to be the window in the bathroom, and the glass of that window was broken. ”

"Then when did he get you up from the window?"

"It didn't take long for him to be behind my back...... Before I could stand up, he came. Sissy replied, her face confused, as if she wasn't so sure of every question she answered.

And the proprietress was much more sober than she was, and the proprietress sent Sissi downstairs to sit on the sofa, and at this time, the proprietress came downstairs with a clean blanket and walked up to them, and the proprietress immediately covered the little girl with the blanket.

I don't know how I should act anymore, my hands and feet have lost their senses, and they stay in place as heavy as a wood carving, and the corpse in front of me, no, more accurately, should be the head in front of me, which is basically the same as the head of a monster.

The neck twisted unnaturally, stuck on the window frame, and the ice stretched the broken cervical vertebrae. At the end of the neck, there are no attached shoulders at all, only the slender bluish-black flesh hanging there.

The glass and ice slid inward, revealing the corpse's skull in its entirety in front of the eyes of the people in the room, and the indescribable fear not to mention a little girl like Sissy, even a man would be scared silly.

The upper part of the corpse's face still had flesh and skin, but the lips and chin were rotten and inhuman, and two large holes had rotted out of the cheeks, and the teeth inside were mixed between flesh and nerves, and the mouth was full of black objects, like small worms and dirt.

The tip of the chin was bare bones, and under the bones was a torn neck, and brown blood clots froze with the ice, like rotting fish meat forgotten in the refrigerator.

The room suddenly became quiet, and for several minutes, the people inside forgot about the cold, and even forgot that they were a living human being, until the screams sounded from the mouth of the proprietress who was holding Sissy, and the man standing next to her finally had the first reaction.

He pushed his wife back until the head of the corpse was out of sight, and in the corner of the house, the man gasped for breath, unable to utter the whole word, just repeating the same words.

"Treacherous House! …… Find the detective! Walk...... Treacherous House! Walk...... Come on!! Looking for a detective!! ……”

Thankfully, his wife didn't see the horrible head clearly, and there was still a shred of sanity. Receiving the meaning of her husband's words, she picked up Cissy and prepared to rush out the back door of the kitchen.

But in the next second, Xixi was snatched by her husband, and the man who couldn't speak shook his head desperately at his wife, meaning that there was such a big snowstorm, she couldn't walk to the main house with Xixi at all, so she let Xixi be with her, and she went alone to inform the criminal police that it would be much faster.

The appearance of her husband overwhelmed the grocery store proprietress, what are you doing here now? Kill them together while the killer comes to dispose of the corpse? The woman wanted to pull her husband and the little girl in his hand, and was ready to say that the three of them would go together.

Just when they were panicking, they heard footsteps from inside the kitchen, and a certain person, a certain man was walking towards them, the man's steps were firm and heavy, and he slowly approached step by step.

From locking the door to entering the study, Xie Yunmeng's series of actions took more than ten minutes at most.

Let's look at Yan Muheng's actions again, assuming that he was indeed knocked unconscious in the food warehouse, and after the person who knocked him unconscious left, he sneaked back to the inside of the treacherous house in order to save his life. If the above assumptions are true, then what Xie Yunmeng sees must be the suspect who stunned Yan Muheng.

In other words, the time when Yan Muheng left the food warehouse was before Xie Yunmeng sent Xixi into the restaurant, and the two of them had a high chance of meeting each other halfway, but listening to Xie Yunmeng's tone, he didn't meet anyone at all before he arrived at the restaurant.

Taking 10,000 steps back, even if it was because the wind and snow were too big, so Mr. Criminal Police and Yan Muheng didn't see each other passing by, then Yan Muheng should be the first person to return to the treacherous house.

From the previous episode, we can know that Yan Muheng entered the treacherous house and was not attacked again, he fainted on the corridor outside the living room because of fatigue, indicating that Yan Muheng also entered through the main entrance of the treacherous house.

So could it be that the mysterious person who entered later saw Yan Muheng in a coma and wanted to kill him again? But after the injured Yan Muheng entered the study to hide, why didn't he say who attacked him? Looking at Yan Muheng's appearance, it is possible that he fought with the murderer, maybe in the process of fighting, he clearly saw the appearance of the murderer, what is the reason that prevents him from telling the truth?

The above is the first guess of Yan Muheng's operation.

Next, let's look at the second guess, assuming that Yan Muheng was not knocked unconscious, he himself pretended to pass out in the food warehouse in order to avoid someone's sight, and when it was safe, it was he who smashed the ice open at the back door of the restaurant.

The suspect Xie Yunmeng found was also him, so it was easy to explain that the criminal police did not meet anyone on the way to the restaurant. Then, after Xixi entered the restaurant, the criminal police immediately followed Yan Muheng, who didn't see his face clearly, and the two of them came to the gate of the treacherous house together.

Xie Yunmeng watched Yan Muheng enter the treacherous house, then locked the door and quickly left to continue his actions.

The time was only ten minutes, in this process, Yan Muheng first fainted outside the living room door, and then got up and was attacked by a mysterious person, after a fight, the injured Yan Muheng was able to avoid the sight of everyone in the restaurant and quietly entered the study. It's already impossible to do.

And no matter who froze it outside the house, Xie Yunmeng thought of a question that he hadn't thought of before, why was this corpse here? Perhaps one of the eighteen people who entered the treacherous house had already been killed in advance.

The killer temporarily buried the body in the snow, and then followed them into the treacherous house as the deceased, and only dug out the body last night and froze with the house.

Why freeze a restaurant? What is the significance of the point in time when the corpse is dug out? Xie Yunmeng couldn't think clearly, he looked at the roof of this house, and said to the grocery store owner and his wife: "You look at Xixi, I'll go to this top and take a look, maybe there are some things on it?" ”

Xie Yunmeng meant that he was going to go to the roof outside to take a look, and he did it because of the way the outside of the house was frozen, and almost the entire house was covered with ice, which meant that the water must have been sprayed down from the center of the roof. Only in this way can the entire house be evenly frozen.

There must have been some kind of pre-installed sprinkler on the roof, and Ms. Wen's restaurant was on the side of the mountain road, far from the treacherous house. There were no traces of dragging water pipes in the snow either. Even if the murderer covered up the traces, according to common sense, it is impossible to have such a long water pipe.

In this kind of weather, dragging the water pipe outside will quickly freeze, and it is impossible to continuously sprinkle water on the restaurant.

So Xie Yunmeng had to go to the roof to make sure, although the bad weather and the ice outside the house might hinder his movement, Xie Yunmeng believed that he could still climb to the roof.

He didn't go through the back door this time, in order to get a complete view of the corpse, he reached out and pushed the window pane that was about to fall towards the window, but there was still ice frozen together, even with the strength of Mr. Detective, there was no way to break the ice directly.

It seems that the ice in front of the house is much thicker than in the back. Xie Yunmeng thought, used his strength again, and then turned back to look for a tool in the room, the proprietress behind him reacted quickly, and immediately ran to the kitchen cabinet and took out a hammer, which she saw when she was cooking just now, there was a small storage cabinet in the kitchen, just under the cupboard.

Xie Yunmeng took the hammer, and after the proprietress returned to Xixi, she smashed the hammer on the ice behind the glass, and immediately the broken ice fell like rain.

He first smashed the ice around the corpse's skull, and then removed the entire window glass with the head, at this time, Mr. Criminal Police found that the corpse's head had been separated from the outside body, its cervical vertebrae had already been broken, the skin and flesh had become very fragile because of the freezing, and the neck was immediately broken with a slight pull.

'Who are you?' Why is it in my dreams? The girl whispered, but the voice that came out of her lips and teeth was amplified countless times, making her unconsciously cover her mouth.

No one answered his question, and the girl felt like she was about to fall asleep, and it was at this moment that her body touched a warm arm......

When the people around her spoke, everything just now disappeared in front of the girl's eyes in an instant, and her eyes full of horror also saw the scene in reality, as well as the old man lying not far away.

——

The horror returned to Sister Wang, and this little girl, like Sissy, was always in a state of panic, but to a slightly better extent than Sissy, because she was at least able to trust the people around her.

"What's wrong with you? Uncomfortable? Sister Wang saw that the horror seemed to be unable to lift her spirits, and asked, but in exchange for an expression that had just woken up.

It seemed that she had dozed off just now, and as soon as she was called by Sister Wang, she immediately woke up and stared at the person who called her with wide eyes.

Sister Wang asked again: "Horror, are you uncomfortable?" ”

“…… No, I just ...... Fell asleep. The terrifying brain was still in a state of chaos, she was not lying, subconsciously she thought that she was indeed asleep just now, but not asleep.

Sister Wang hugged the horror into her arms again and said, "Since you are sleepy, let's sleep for a while, anyway, the affairs of this family will not end immediately." The middle-aged maid's tone revealed helplessness, and at this moment she was indeed waiting for the incident to end with a resigned attitude.

Terror no longer spoke, her small body shrunk into the arms of the people around her, but her eyes were still staring at Liu Qiaopu lying on the sofa, she was probably praying in her heart that the old criminal policeman could come back to life, how did this family suddenly become like this, Terror still can't figure it out.

Both of them seem to be ignoring Sissi who disappeared inexplicably at the moment, perhaps because this little girl herself is not the person they would worry about!

Yun Yeyao has been sitting next to Liu Qiao Pu, and from time to time he lowered his head to check the old man's physical condition, in fact, he was exchanging opinions with Liu Qiao Pu with facial expressions, the two of them did it very hidden, coupled with Yun Ye Yao's innate acting skills, even the people closest to them couldn't see a flaw.

Yun Yeyao was waiting like these people in the room, but the difference was that the others were waiting purposelessly, and they didn't know what was going to happen next. Thinking that the wind and snow will end soon can give them hope to go down the mountain.

Yun Yeyao, on the other hand, was waiting for the return of the people who were acting in the shadows, so that he could start questioning each of the parties individually, and then Xie Yunmeng and Mei Xiaoxiao would bring him more evidence and clues.

This small square table was solid wood, so heavy that there was no way to move it at all. When Yaya and Grandma moved just now, they all relied on pushing. Now Yaya was lying on top of it, staring at the floor.

Suddenly, she said to Tang Meiya as if she had seen something: "Grandma, there are scratches on the ground!" ”

"Huh?!" Tang Meiya glanced back suspiciously, her waist and legs were not as flexible as those of young people, so it was a little difficult to turn around between the narrow bookshelves.

The last two rows of bookshelves in the study seem to be particularly narrow because the books on them are not often read. Tang Meiya finally squatted in a position where Yaya could see, squinted her presbyopia, and searched the floor.

She didn't see the scratches on the floor at first glance, maybe it was because of the similar color, the floor was dark, and the gaps embedded in it were also dark, and it seemed that there was also a shadow treatment, that is, a little camouflage was made when painting, so Tang Meiya searched for a long time to find the so-called concave scratches.

Comparing with the position of the table legs, Tang Meiya finally found that the reason why the small square table in the study could not be moved may not be because it was heavy, but because the table legs themselves were connected to the floor, like a movable pulley or lever.

"Yaya, didn't you just find this thing?" Tang Meiya asked.

"It was so dark just now, I just pushed the table, and I didn't see it at all."

Tang Meiya thought for a moment and said, "Maybe this is what Mr. Yun wants us to find, let's try to push the table forward a little further to see if we can open the floor." ”

"Okay, grandma, I'll try." Yaya stood up, put her hands on the edge of the table and pushed hard, but she and Tang Meiya tried their best, and did not move the small square table for another half minute, and the floor did not open.

"This should have a hidden button." Yan Muheng's words came from behind him, and he didn't know when he had stood up from the ground and walked behind his ancestors and grandchildren.

Tang Meiya hurriedly asked her granddaughter to retreat behind her, and then asked Yan Muheng: "Mr. Yan, do you know how to open the mechanism here?" ”

"I don't know, I did know a little bit about the Tricky House, but I didn't know much about the mechanism. I guess the reason you can't move the table is because there's a hidden buckle under the floor. That table is just a moving switch, and if you don't turn on the hidden button, no matter how you move the table, it won't work! ”

"So what now?" Yaya asked from behind her grandmother's shoulder, her eyes were looking at Yan Muheng, and the question was also asking Yan Muheng.

Yan Muheng still said that he didn't know, Yaya couldn't help but be a little frustrated, and muttered softly: "Then what you just said wasn't nonsense?" After guessing for a long time, there is still no solution. ”
