Chapter 20: Strange Phenomena

The dark night gradually eroded the city, and those who were stranded in the wind, frost and snow finally returned one by one, leaving the lonely lights still shining on the empty streets and alleys. When Mu Tianyu arrived at home, it was already about nine o'clock in the evening. The moment he pushed the door open, the smell of steak with rich wild pepper sauce penetrated into the depths of his sense of smell, and at this moment, he was already hungry. Gu Ruoxi waited in the living room with her daughter early in the morning, and the light in the kitchen was not extinguished. When she heard this, she got up and looked into the garden. "Hey, Dad?" Mu Zilan jumped off the sofa excitedly and ran to Mu Tianyu, who had just entered the house.

"Oh, my little sweetheart." He hurriedly took off his coat and hung it on a stake next to him, then picked up his daughter who was running towards him. "I didn't expect you to be a greedy little mouse." He rubbed his daughter's forehead and smelled a milky blueberry smell at the corner of his mouth.

"Hehe, I'm not, Grandma Seth brought a box of desserts in the afternoon, I just tasted it." Seth is a servant in Mu Tianyu's family, she is a member of the Seth clan, she is fifty-four years old, she has been working since Mu Tianyu bought the house, and the race is now very rare. He looked at Gu Ruoxi in the living room, but he didn't find Seth, in the past, now they should be sitting together watching TV.

"I'm so sorry to always come back so late."

"This time it was punctual, I just finished dinner." She kissed Mu Tianyu's lips, still feeling the icy chill. "In recent years, this winter season has been getting colder and colder, and I always thought that today was the coldest day, and I didn't know until the next day that there was even colder."

"Yes, the weather station explained that the magnetic field of sunspots is spreading, or that there is an anomaly in the climate at the edge of the equator. In short, it is an explanation that is difficult for some non-specialists to understand. In fact, I feel like the duration of winter is getting longer every year. "The steak tasted good, maybe he was too hungry." Your craft is getting better and better, and I'm almost forgetting about this delicacy. By the way, why don't you see Seth. "I thought Seth would be in the kitchen, and I didn't see her until dinner.

"She resigned."

"Resign?" Mu Tianyu didn't think of this. "She's doing a great job here, why is she leaving?" Although Seth is a servant here, Mu Tianyu treats her like an elder, pity the other party for being helpless, and even treat her as a member of the family. "I mean, she's doing well here, too, so why should she leave?"

"You forgot? She was fifty-five years old. Gu Ruoxi put down the steel fork and wiped the greasy lips with a tissue. Last year on the shores of Deess Lake, she talked about it. ”

"Oh, I forgot about it." Mu Tianyu recalled the scene of that day, when traveling on the shore of Diss Lake, the family still had Seth. Mrs. Seth said that when she was fifty-five years old, she would have to return to her hometown to spend her old age in peace. Mu Tianyu rarely heard Mrs. Seth talk about her hometown, but she knew that it was far away. "I thought she was just talking casually."

"At first I thought she was just talking, but I remember that on the way back, I asked her. She just smiled and shook her head, and I thought it was unspeakably hard to talk about, and it would fade over time. Until she suddenly said she was leaving this afternoon, I called you, but it was never in the service area. Gu Ruoxi glanced at Mu Tianyu inadvertently.

"Oh, I was...... At the time of a patient. The words were a little slurred, and even Mu Tianyu himself noticed it. Has she left Dro City now? ”

"Yes, she thought you would be home in the afternoon and brought Zilan a box of desserts. It seems like a ticket for nine o'clock in the evening, and it should have taken off by now. Gu Ruoxi washed the tableware, and when she saw her daughter go to the living room, she turned to Mu Tianyu and said, "You are nothing." ”

"No, it's fine." The smile was so stiff that the rag in his hand almost turned into a napkin. After sharing the same bed for so many years, how could Gu Ruoxi not understand. "It's just, just a little tired." He handed the rag in his hand to Gu Ruoxi.

"Hey." Gu Ruoxi sighed lightly, and looked up at her husband in front of her with focused eyes. "My dear, we are husband and wife, I hope to be able to guide you when you are troubled, and give you a smile when you are down, I love you so much."

The only woman Mu Tianyu has ever loved in his life is Gu Ruoxi in front of him, they kissed lightly, hot water was still being placed in the sink, and the wisps of heat rose on the surface of the kitchen window and solidified into frost. "I'm sorry, me, I just had something going on, and I didn't know how to weigh everything in front of me. In the past, I was able to give it my all because I saw it better than anyone else. Now, I'm confused, it's like I'm in a veil, everything is so blurry. ”

"Perhaps, you're too tired." With tender eyes, Gu Ruoxi hugged the man next to her tighter. "Everyone gets lost sometimes." She slowly moved her hand to Mu Tianyu's chest. "In fact, you already have the answer in your heart, no matter if you choose, whenever or where, I believe it is right, you have always been my hero." Mu Tianyu is very glad that he can find such a wife, almost every time he has difficulty in making a choice, he will get great encouragement, this courage from the depths of his soul, but also prompted him to take a step forward.

The town of Pontslin had fallen into a dead silence, except for the unbridled cold wind dancing in the dark night, the sounds of those whistling by were like the moans of old and sick people, who lurked behind the dense forest, watching every move in the town. The house was tightly covered by curtains, so that no light could be seen, and the guiding lights on both sides of the road were silently extinguished with the darkness. Only the house on Ponslin 61 made a noise in this dead silence.

After Chen Miaoxue entered the room, she noticed the painting hanging on the closet, she stayed on it for a few seconds, and then looked at the little girl who was sitting up from the bed, her face was bloodless and lifeless, only the two eyes were constantly moving, looking at herself for a while, and looking at the fat man at the door for a while. "Hi, I'm sorry to wake you up. My name is Chen Miaoxue, and if you call me Sister Xiaoxue, I will be very happy. Chen Miaoxue walked to the bed and stretched out her hand to signal friendliness, and the child also smiled, but looked stiff and weak.

"My name is Lin Qing."

"Lin Qing? A beautiful name. Chen Miaoxue sighed, she looked at Tang Song beside her. You can call him fat brother, he's my friend. ”

"Fat brother?" The girl muttered weakly, it was the first time she had heard such a strange name, and her eyes jumped up and down to look at the fat man in front of her.

"Hi, Lin Qing." Tang Song nodded and took a step forward. I secretly said in my heart, she is the one who has been devoured by evil spirits? How is it different from what you have seen before? She doesn't have obvious traces, which is weird.

"What's that on your face? Beard? Her tone was weak, but she still couldn't stop her curiosity.

Tang Song freed his left hand and touched his beard. "Yes, beard, I've had it for a long time." He glanced at the situation in the room, and then said, "Lin Qing, can I walk around?" The girl did not answer, but looked at her mother, and when she acquiesced, she nodded her head to say yes. Well, okay, very good. Tang Song said to himself, his face became serious, and he paced the house with the detector in both hands, first from the door to the corner, and then from the corner to the wardrobe.

"Lin Qing, how old are you?"

The girl looked at Tang Song strolling in the corner, curious about his every move, and when she heard Chen Miaoxue's voice, she came back to her senses and replied, "This year, I am six years old." ”

"Are you hungry right now? Want to eat something? Lin Yan probably knew Chen Miaoxue's intentions, but she just wanted to divert the child's attention, and then she also opened her mouth to echo.

Tang Song stayed for a long time with every step, his eyes never left the display panel in front of him, the temperature of data analysis hovered around ten degrees Celsius, and a fixed frequency response came from the headset, drip, drip, drip. There is nothing unusual in this room, maybe the evil place is not in this room, Tang Song guessed, and walked towards the wardrobe. A dark shadow flashed outside the window, a crow passing through the place, and its hoarse chirp tore through the silence. The people upstairs didn't care, but the people downstairs were startled, the dim light in the living room could not penetrate into the corridor, Zhang Fang frowned and looked at the kitchen at the end, stuck at the entrance of the stairs, he stared at the mirror on the wooden cabinet in the kitchen in confusion, picked up the camera with some hesitation, he casually pulled off a blue lens, and stared quietly. The original dark picture was glowing with blue light, and the image in this camera was very weird, and he couldn't help but gasp. He was deciding whether to press the shutter or not, maybe a person would suddenly appear in front of the camera, or maybe this person would stand in the kitchen and stare like himself, wearing a black robe and a blood-red gauze hat, revealing a fair and gloomy face. He could barely bear the fear, and a crow's cry brought his soul back to life.

Drip, drip. Suddenly, the frequency of the response shortened sharply, and Tang Song suddenly looked at the display, and the temperature dropped to five degrees Celsius, and then to four degrees Celsius. He frowned, his hands controlling the probe rod, dangling back and forth outside the closet. Didi, Didi...... The headset still has a short frequency response, which is extremely harsh. He looked up blankly, his gaze from the display instrument to the old wooden wardrobe. The lights in the room weren't very bright, but at least they were more than enough, and he moved the rod outward for a distance, and the data on the display instrument was gradually returning to nine degrees Celsius. This is obviously a wardrobe problem, his focused eyes are not the slightest timid, but the emotions in his heart are actually tumbling on the hot pot. He choked up and continued to reach the rod out of the closet, almost clinging to it. This time, he was very sure that it must be a problem in the closet. That's right, right in front of you, right across the closet. His messy eyes finally locked on the tiny gap in the closet, and the protruding pupils wanted to squeeze in to see what was going on, and the gap was pitch black, like a gloomy face, lurking in the depths of darkness.
