Chapter 253: Storybook
The sound of footsteps appeared coldly in Rupert's room, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat for the child, who was only eight years old.
He distinctly heard footsteps bypassing the half-open door and entering his room, but there was nothing in his room!
This......
Rupert was completely sleepy at this time, sitting on the bed wrapped in a quilt and looking at the door with a frightened face.
However, there was nothing at the door of the room.
"Click...... Click......"
The footsteps are slow and heavy, and they sound particularly oozing on quiet nights.
Rupert looked at the empty doorway and clearly heard footsteps appear in his room out of thin air, but he couldn't see the owner of the footsteps at all.
Footsteps took two steps towards Rupert from the direction of the doorway, and suddenly stopped.
Rupert followed the voice, only to hear footsteps stop in front of his closet, but still could not see anything.
Although the footsteps disappeared, Rupert didn't have the slightest intention of relaxing, I don't know why, he always felt panicked, obviously the strange footsteps had disappeared, but things didn't seem to be so simple.
Seemingly, just the calm before the storm.
Just as Rupert climbed to the end of the bed, holding on to the baffle at the end of the bed with one hand, and looking in the direction of the wardrobe, footsteps suddenly appeared.
However, the footsteps this time were different from the previous ones.
This time, the footsteps were running towards Rupert!
Listening to the footsteps running towards him, Rupert was frightened, and quickly fell on the bed, covering his head tightly with the quilt, and the whole person curled up in the quilt, shivering.
However, the footsteps ran to his bedside and stopped in front of him.
Rupert curled up in the quilt, covering his mouth tightly, not daring to make a sound, silently praying in his heart that this layer of quilt could protect him.
As the minutes ticked by, nothing happened, but the footsteps never came again.
This did not dispel Rupert's fear, because the sound of footsteps did not appear, indicating that the thing that made the footsteps was still standing at the head of his bed!
However, at this moment, a large truck drove by on the road outside the window, and the headlights of the truck peeked through the window of Rupert's room, reflecting the shadow of the thing standing at the head of Rupert's bed.
Rupert's bedside turned out to be a real person!
Moreover, the man held out his hand towards Rupert, who was curled up in the quilt......
However, when Rupert's quilt was lifted, he realized that it was already dawn, and the person who lifted his quilt was none other than his mother.
Rupert slipped into his mother's arms with a "wow" and cried to his mother about what happened last night, but his mother only comforted him twice, saying things like there are no monsters in this world.
Hearing this, it really confirmed Jun Chengzong's conjecture in his heart, his mother's response did not eliminate the fear in Rupert's heart at all, but deepened Rupert's panic, and it was absolutely no good for this eight-year-old boy's heart construction.
However, the problem now is clearly not Rupert's mother, but the noisy poltergeist in Rupert's house.
Rupert had encountered the strange sound of footsteps the night before, and when he woke up in the morning, he found that in his room, not only had the door opened, but the wardrobe facing the end of his bed had also been opened.
Don't......
Rupert cautiously walked to the closet, gently pulled the half-open door, and saw that in the deepest part of his closet, on top of the messy pile of clothes, a story book with a red cover was sitting alone.
What is it?
Because Rupert pestered his mother to tell him bedtime stories every day, as a child, as soon as he saw the storybook, he immediately forgot what had happened the night before, picked up the red-covered storybook from the pile of old clothes, sat on the ground, and began to read.
However, Rupert did not expect that this book was different from all the bedtime stories he heard on a daily basis.
This storybook tells an ancient and terrifying legend of Wyandott in gloomy language.
Once upon a time, there was a wandering magician whose name was Robbubu.
Robbu Bubu is very good at performing magic tricks for children, and in the eyes of children, he is a magician with magical magic, and all children love him.
Turning the first page, there is even a portrait of Rob Bu Bu at the back.
In the portrait, Robbu Bu is wearing a black cloak and a high black top hat on his head, and his face cannot be seen, but his eyes and mouth full of strange things can be seen.
After dark, Robbu would come to the children's house, knock on their door, and say, "Robbu is hereโ"
The child will open the door for him to enter his dreams......
After every two pages, there is a page of illustrations that look cartoonish, but look very strange when you look closely.
After this paragraph, the illustration is in the home of a child, the child in the picture is lying quietly asleep on the bed, but the dark Robbu Bubu is standing at the door of the child's room, peeking out of the crack in the door, and peeking in with a strange smile, peeping at the sleeping child.
In fact, Rupert was already very scared when he saw this, but he saw a gap in the page, so driven by curiosity, Rupert raised his hand and gently pulled the gap on the page.
However, just as he raised his hand to pull the gap, Luo Bubu, who had been peeping secretly in the door, suddenly pushed open the door and walked into the room, walking towards the sleeping child on the bed.
The Luo Bubu cloth on the book is not actually an illustration, but a kind of paper model mechanical illustration, and there are some simple mechanical mechanisms hidden in the pages, as long as you gently pull or push it with your hand, or even simply open the page.
Rupert didn't expect the illustration on the tree to move, and he was stunned for a moment.
When he reacted, the storybook had already been taken away by his mother, who had no idea what was going on, but put the storybook on the bookshelf and told him to hurry to dinner, eat and go to school.
For a small child, the horror of stories comes and goes quickly, so soon Rupert comes out of the panic brought about by that red-covered storybook.
But when Rupert stepped onto the school bus, he suddenly realized something terrifying.
In the storybook, in Luo Bubu's illustrations, Luo Bubu is wearing a pair of black leather shoes.
Could it be the footsteps that came last night......
