Chapter Twenty-Five: A Scorched Figure

Jingle Ring, Jingle Ring, Jingle Jingle Ringing Ring~ A string of mobile phone ringtones rang, and the owner of the mobile phone, a woman who looked 26.7 years old, picked it up and looked at the caller ID.

"Who? Who made the call? The man sitting next to the woman held the remote control in his hand, watched the TV and asked, and the woman picked up the phone and said, "My brother-in-law." ”

"Hello? Brother-in-law? What's wrong? The woman opened her mouth and asked, the man was a little upset on the side, thinking that he was idle and had nothing to do with what he was calling you for? But because the phone had been connected, he only said it in his heart, not out loud.

"What!?? Is what you say true!?? Brother-in-law!!?? I... I..."The woman gradually cried, but the mobile phone was still talking, and the man asked a few words next to him, what was wrong? What's wrong? Seeing that the woman didn't react, she grabbed the phone, and said to the phone: "What's wrong?" Brother-in-law? ”

"Your sister died, there was an explosion near the hotel where she worked, and everyone in that area was killed, don't tell your parents and children." The man hummed stupidly, and hung up the phone after comforting his brother-in-law for a few words, everyone was stupid, my wife's sister was still eating and chatting with the four of them in her own house half a month ago, and in a blink of an eye, it was gone? The woman was still crying, and the man hugged his wife and comforted him, but it was useless, and after a while the woman calmed down, because there were children sleeping in the bedroom at home, and the child was not hers, it was her sister and brother-in-law, who both worked in the city, and the child was taken care of by the two.

After the child's mother died, he has been hiding the child, the child's father still works in the city, and works harder, because he wants to give the child more money, although the child's aunt, the sister-in-law has always told the brother-in-law that it is not so much, but because the child has always been taken care of by the sister-in-law, so the child's father has always felt that he owes a lot to others, although the money he gives far exceeds the daily expenses.

The sister-in-law and the brother-in-law are very kind, and have always taken care of the child as their own, but both of them feel that this child is a little strange, he is getting quieter and quieter, and he is not talking anymore, Generally, 4.5-year-old children are very noisy, very playful, crazy, especially little boys, but this child is surprisingly quiet, at first not, since the death of the child's mother, the child began to be surprisingly quiet, but also very clingy, no matter where to go to be accompanied, no one around will be frightened to lower his head and hide and cry, no one at home has ever told him about his mother, want to keep it from him, the little sister-in-law saw the child like this, can't help but think of a lot of possibilities.

One day after lunch, the little sister-in-law took the child out to play, to the playground, but the child never dared to leave the little brother-in-law, other children are crazy and unwilling to let the adults follow, but the child is sticking to the little brother-in-law motionless, has been grabbing the little brother-in-law's trouser leg, at first I thought that the child was timid, but in this environment, the children are like crazy to play, and then think of the child from the death of the mother began to become like this, I can't help but think of some bad ideas in my mind, Eventually, I went home and told my wife about these thoughts, and my wife's thoughts were very consistent with my own.

The two discussed whether to tell the child's father, the sister-in-law didn't want to tell her, she felt that her brother-in-law had worked hard enough, don't let her brother-in-law worry anymore, and the sister-in-law thought that he was the child's father and had the right to know, but he also hesitated if he knew whether it would make him more worried about work, and he didn't want him to know, so the two decided to go to the temple to have a look first, take the child with them, and if it was still like this, then think of other ways.

The next day, the two came to the temple together, before arriving at the temple, the three of them entered the gate and walked inside, the child slowly let go of his hand at this time, no longer grabbed the trouser leg of the little uncle, but kept looking at the gate, kept staring at it and didn't know what he was looking at, the child's aunt led the child to worship a lot of gods, and also made incense, the child was completely different from the outside in the temple, and there was no sense of dependence on the outside, not sticking to the two, but this made the two of them feel furious, which proved that what they were afraid of may be true, When it was time to leave, he slowly walked to the gate, and gradually he could see the gate, and the child began to stick to the two again, grabbing the little brother-in-law's trouser leg with his hand, although the little brother-in-law couldn't see anything, and couldn't feel it, but he couldn't help but be scared when he thought of his guess, and he scared himself and walked out of the door, and the child's hand holding his trouser leg became tighter.

After returning home, the two decided to tell their brother-in-law about the matter, and the brother-in-law took leave to go home after knowing it, and when he got home, the child was no longer so quiet, and when he saw his father appear in front of him, he cried and jumped up and cried and shouted: "Dad, Dad." When the father saw the child like this, squatted down and hugged his child, clinging to each other, crying sadly, crying and whispering: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." The sister-in-law's sister-in-law told him everything about it.

Originally, my brother-in-law believed in these things, but now he is even more convinced, and the next day he took the child to the temple again, this time not to worship anything, but to let the child tell himself everything.

Walking to the middle of the temple, the child's father squatted down and looked at the child and said, "What's wrong?" Is it okay to tell Daddy? What are you afraid of? The child hugged his father and whispered in his ear, "There is a person who has been following me, she looks so scary, I dare not look at her, and I dare not speak." The father was shocked by this sentence, but encouraged the child to continue, and asked him to describe what kind of person he was, and the child began to say: "It seems to be an aunt, her hair seems to be burned, there are some places with hair and some places without hair, her clothes are tattered and there are many holes, her whole body is so black, there are many injuries, her whole face is black, the right side of her face is terrible, it seems to be burned, I dare not look at her, but she has always been by my side." The more the child spoke, the more excited he became, the more he said, the more scared he became, the father listened more and more excited, the tears on his face kept staying, he knew who he was talking about, it was his mother, the fire caused by the explosion took his mother's life, when he went to claim the body, he saw his wife's appearance was the same as the child's mouth, the child's father was very sad, he recalled everything he saw when he went to claim the body that day, he cried bitterly, his wife has been guarding the child, But the child doesn't know who this person is and is always afraid of her.

Dad's crying attracted the attention of the volunteers in the temple, the volunteers stepped forward and asked a few words of concern, the child's father chatted with others, chatted about this matter, the volunteer told the child's father: "You need to find a master to help over, let your wife rest in peace as soon as possible, she should not be so nostalgic for a long time, I recommend a master to you, he is not in this temple, most of the people in this temple are young people with salaries, I have not seen the abbot, I can't help you introduce, But the master I introduced to you is dedicated to helping others, and he is simply in the world. ”

The child's father left here after a thousand thanks, and then took the child to the place where the volunteer said, a mountain bungalow, and met the master in the mouth of the volunteer, the master looked like an old man who had nothing to do with the world, the master talked with the child's father for a long time, and then decided to live here for three days, three days passed, the child went back with the father, the child was no longer afraid, and the child did not see the aunt in the mouth, but there was an additional tablet of the child's mother at home.

It is said that the child's mother has been helped, and has gone to a more suitable place for herself, although the child can no longer see, but the child's mother will always guard her.

Looking back at all this now, I think this mother just can't worry about the child.
