Chapter 21: Silence

The crowd had just left, and the maids were still cleaning the house.

The owner of the house frowned and asked his wife, "How is Martha?" ”

"It's basically fine, but he's still pretending to be sick and trying to lie to us."

"Let her rest for two days, don't we care if she is too strict."

Then the man went about to attend to some business, and the lady went into her room alone.

Take out a crystal ball from the drawer.

She is a Cambodian and it is here that she meets her lover and forms a happy family.

But she prophesied that her daughter would cause trouble for the family.

This made her a little uneasy, and she could only try to teach her daughter to try to avoid all this.

Fate can be changed, she is convinced of this, and it seems that everything is getting better as can be seen from the lack of similar signs in the prophecies of the past few years, but the recent prophecies have made her very uneasy.

At this time, she could see from the reflection on the crystal ball that her doorknob seemed to be turning, without the slightest movement, and she would not have noticed it if she hadn't seen it.

Her eyes widened!

Night.

There was a group of toy soldiers hiding in the grass, waiting for the group to leave.

When everyone had left and the whole house was slowly turning into darkness, the toy soldiers quietly infiltrated the house.

Martha, who had slept all day during the day, seemed to feel something moving at this time, and even the candy fairy seemed to feel uneasy.

She put the doll under her quilt and quietly hid under the curtains.

Suddenly!

Her door was opened, but there was no movement.

Martha saw the man, who had a knife in his hand, and there was blood on it.

I saw the man walk to the bed and lift the quilt suddenly.

No one?

The man was taken aback and said to himself, "Has this stand-in messenger noticed it?" ”

"It's a nuisance."

"Was she rescued by her mother? Those Shinto aunts are so annoying. ”

Then he noticed that the quilt he was holding in his hand was still warm.

Other words.

Scold.

Martha was very frightened at this time, with the help of some moonlight, she could see clearly that the man lifted his quilt and seemed to say something, but the scene was extremely strange.

There is no sound!!

Martha saw the man walking towards the closet in his room, and the candy fell on the floor and he stepped on it, but there was no sound.

She tried her best to control herself from speaking out at this time, and after the previous beating, she had already taken her temperament.

She could feel that if she made a little noise, she would die. The other party doesn't care if she's a little girl or not.

I saw that the man searched all the cupboards, under the bed, and found that there was no one, and walked towards Martha.

At this point, Martha couldn't control her fear, she was trembling, and she kept praying in her heart that someone would come and save her, and she seemed to have something in her hand.

The man also seemed to feel Martha's fear, and his mouth blew a minor tune that no one else could hear, and he was officially flying with the wild bee that Joost had just played!

He seemed to be deliberately slowing down by the enjoyer, and Martha's toy was kicked aside, but there was no sound.

Step by step.

Lift the curtains.

No!?

He simply ripped off the entire curtain.

Or not!

Only toys on the ground.

Damn it!

None of the maids who had just finished cleaning noticed the movement in this room.

Martha's mouth was covered at this point.

It seems to be in a confined space.

The environment in front of you has completely changed, as if in an enclosed space.

When she looked back, it was a little boy, about her size.

It was the little boy who saved her.

At this point, the little boy pointed outward, then put his index finger to his mouth, signaling her not to make a sound, and the man had not left.

Although she didn't know what the situation was now, Martha still quieted down as he said. It was the only straw she encountered in a desperate situation.

At this time, the boy was also very frightened, and he observed through the nesting doll that the man's movements did not make a sound, and if he was discovered, he would die.

He could feel that breath because he had killed people too!

The feeling of soaking in the sea of blood made him explode.

Eventually, the man continued his search to no avail, and searched the entire house before finally leaving.

After he left, the boy motioned for Martha to remain silent.

Follow his instincts.

Sure enough, after waiting for a while, the man pushed open the door and searched again.

Martha was so frightened that she lost her ability to move and covered her mouth herself.

When the man left again, the boy took control of the toys and quickly led them away.

And in the silent house, he was thinking about how the little girl had escaped, when he seemed to hear some noise, and some lights appeared outside.

"Trouble."

He got up and left straight from behind.

The noble lady who had come in with a group of officers and soldiers saw her husband's body and wept aloud.

Then he rushed to Martha's room like crazy.

A nobleman who was high in the army saw this scene and couldn't bear to cover the body with a cloth. Then he immediately followed the noblewoman.

He discovers that the Count has just died, and that the killer is probably still in the house.

The lady saw that Martha's room had been destroyed and completely unlikely, and cried as she flipped through the room that could be seen through at this glance: "Martha! My daughter! ”

Then he knelt on the ground weakly, as if he had lost all his strength.

On the other side, the boy escapes with Martha to a basement.

It took a while for Martha to react, and she couldn't help crying, and the boy watched her without moving.

Crying, Martha suddenly thought of her parents, and begged the boy in the corner, "Can you let me go back and see?" I don't know what happened to my father and mother. ”

The boy didn't understand this, and after a while said, "Father? Is it necessary to care about this creature? ”

However, the boy felt comfortable staying with the girl, and the emotions conveyed by the girl made him feel uncomfortable.

So he told the girl not to make a sound, and he would take her to see it.

This time, the girl saw the toy on the ground and realized that the boy was the one who had been working against her until then to control the toy.

Enter the nesting doll again.

The toy soldiers took advantage of the night to walk around the house again.

The whole house and yard were brightly lit, and Martha saw her father's body being carried out.

She couldn't believe it.

Uncontrollably cried out.

The boy was not moved by the scene before him, but then he saw a figure in the bushes under the light of the soldier's torches.

It's that person!

The man seemed to have spotted them and walked towards them.

Passing through the bushes, there was no sound, and none of the soldiers who were next to it noticed it.

There was no more luck, and the boy immediately asked the nesting dolls to release them and let the toy soldiers stop them.

Then he pulled Martha and ran away as fast as he could.

Martha's desperate eyes slowly changed at this time.

But at this time, the lethality of his toys is limited, and it is difficult for children to outrun adults.

As for calling for help, there is no such concept at all in the boy's world, and there is no one in his world to trust except for the girl in front of him who instinctively makes him feel comfortable.
