"How's it going, boss?"
"There is nothing wrong with the house."
Ding Dong β
Click!
"Hello."
"Come in. That talisman of yours is very useful, and Xiaorui hasn't felt strange lately. Is that thing gone? β
"Not sure yet."
"Can I buy that amulet?"
"Yes."
"Oh!"
"That's the floor-to-ceiling window you mentioned, right?"
"Huh? That's right. β
"This is your bedroom."
"Yes, I don't have a bathroom in my bedroom, I use this ...... all the time"
"Hey, you're so rude! How do you look at a girl's room casually? β
"How's it going, boss?"
"The bathroom is fine, and the house is fine."
"Did you scare you away?"
"What does it mean to be scared away?"
"Little sister, I said it last time, if you don't know how to shut up, go out."
"Poetry ......"
"I'll see what you can do!"
"Now, let's do an experiment."
"What test?"
"Miss Zheng, the talisman is on you now, right?"
"Huh? In. This ......"
"Alright, now, please go into the bathroom alone and look in the mirror."
"What are you kidding! took away the amulet and let Xiaorui ...... alone"
"How effective the amulet is, so that you can see. With us here, you can shout out if something happens. But I want you to be brave and if you feel the gaze, look in the mirror and don't look away until we come in. β
"Ah...... I ......"
"You're not kidding! Are you letting Xiaorui be the bait? We didn't pay you to do this kind of thing! β
"Spirit, talk to her."
"Hmm. Sister Xiaorui, you come with me. β
"Hey, wait! You guys...... Let me go! β
"Little sister, don't get in the way of our work."
Click.
"What an obstacle! I don't agree with you doing this, you're fired! You...... What are you doing, don't you......"
"Alright, sir."
"Hmm. Little sister, have you learned to shut up now? β
"Hmm!"
"Then I'll let go of my hand, and your friend will come out later, don't talk much, you know?"
"What do you mean? Is that a pinhole camera? β
"Your parents are probably right."
"Ah...... Could it really be Xiaorui......"
"As a friend, you should encourage her to face the truth, instead of indulging her in nonsense and deepening her fears."
ββ¦β¦β
Click.
"Alright, we've talked about it."
"Can I go in?"
"Well, that's fine. I...... I'm ready. β
"Don't worry, if you feel dangerous, just call us, and we'll stay at the door."
"Hmm. Poetry ......"
"I'm right at the door, don't worry. I'll keep the doorknob in my hands, and when I hear you, I'll go in. β
"Hmm. Then I, I'm in. β
"Hmmm! Come on, Xiaorui! β
Squeak - click!
β¦β¦
"She's in front of the mirror."
β¦β¦
"Whew - don't show up, don't show up, don't show up ......"
β¦β¦
"I opened my eyes. Well...... It's been ten minutes. β
β¦β¦
"Hoo ......"
β¦β¦
"Six-fifteen."
β¦β¦
ββ¦β¦β
β¦β¦
"Sixty-twenty."
"Open the door."
"Ah......h
"Open the door."
"Oh."
Click! Squeak β
"Poetry?"
"Xiaorui, you ......"
"Looks like the goblin is gone."
"Huh?!"
"You didn't see anything strange, and you didn't feel like someone was staring at you, did you, Miss Zheng?"
"No, not really. Was that thing driven away? β
"That's right."
"That'...... Are you going to take back the amulet? β
"I can give it to you. Be a memorial and a guardian, and you won't ever encounter such a terrible thing again. β
"Great! Thank you! β
"You're welcome."
"Little sister, do you still want to buy an amulet?"
ββ¦β¦ Want! I'm going to buy a pair with Xiaorui! β
"The talismans of our firm are all the same, and there is no such thing as a pair."
"What...... No business acumen at all...... No wonder it's in that old neighborhood......"

On December 14, 2013, the investigation was concluded, the incident was resolved, and it was confirmed that it was a non-paranormal event.
On December 20, 2013, I received a call from Duan Shishi. Call recording 201312201212.mp3.
"Aoba's? You guys...... Can you come to school now? β
"Miss Duan, is that it? What happened? β
"That amulet...... The amulet was gone. Xiaorui was scared. SheβShe's closing herself in the toilet now. It's lunch break, but class is coming at one o'clock, and the teacher will come. Can you come over quickly? β
"Okay, we'll be right there."
On December 20, 2013, I went to the No. 1 Middle School of Huangnan District, found the client, went through the leave procedures for him, and received it from the office. Audio files 07820131220.wav.
"Don't be afraid. This is the new amulet, take it. It's okay. β
"Woo...... Woo......"
"Don't worry, we'll go to the office now, it's a quick drive. If you're afraid, don't look around, close your eyes, and I'll just sit next to you and hold your hand, okay? I'll talk to you all the time. β
"Xiaorui, don't be afraid, woo, don't be afraid...... I'm here too. β
"Boss, I've told their homeroom teacher, you can go now."
"Well, let's go."
β¦β¦
"Miss Zheng, are you better?"
"Hmm."
"Drink some hot water."
"Hmmm......"
"Now, can you tell me what's going on?"
"I ...... I joined the school choir, there were rehearsals, I had to change my clothes...... I didn't pay attention...... I didn't pay attention when I changed my clothes, and when I finished and changed my clothes, I found that the amulet was gone...... I went to find ...... Music classrooms, corridors, classes, toilets...... None ......"
"I also helped to find it, but I couldn't find it. I told Xiaorui that it might have been picked up by someone, or it might have been thrown away as garbage by the aunt who swept the floor. I gave her my amulet first. β
"Where's your amulet?"
"Here."
"Miss Zheng, didn't you take it?"
"No, it's not! I wanted to take it, but ...... But at that time......"
Xiaorui was glaring behind me...... We were standing in the music room with a grand piano behind me and a window. β
"Do you see your own reflection, a strange shadow, or something?"
"Woo......"
"Miss Zheng, if you don't say it, we don't know how to help you. Now that you're safe, speak up. β
ββ¦β¦ It's a bird. β
"What kind of bird?"
"I don't know...... Brown, but not a sparrow, such a big one, standing on the windowsill...... It...... It's on the lips...... With an amulet in his mouth......"
"Ahh It was taken away by a bird! Why didn't you say it then? β
"It looked at me...... It looked at me with the amulet in its mouth......"
"Little Rui ......"
"Did you fly away later?"
"yes, flew away...... But it's back...... It's back......"
"Xiaorui, don't be afraid, it's okay now."
"You're scared, so you shut yourself in the toilet?"
"Uh......h Woohoo......"
"Xiaorui...... Don't cry, it's okay. β
"Spirit."
"Hmm. Sister Xiaorui, I'll take you to wash your face, don't be afraid. β
"I ...... Well? β
Da Da Da ...... Squeak - click!
"Little sister, can you contact her parents?"
"Do you want to talk to her parents?"
"What she needs most now is a psychiatrist, not us."
"Yes...... But that's weird, isn't it? How could an amulet be taken away by a bird? Is that thing cunning and deliberately confusing us? β
