Chapter 7: The Ghost Fire in the Pavilion
When I came back to my senses, I asked Ke Xiaoyue, "Do you see what that woman looks like?" ”
"I didn't see it clearly, but I knew that she was a woman, about the same height as me, and that there was a terrifying hand that only left the white skull." Ke Xiaoyue recalled the picture in the trance dream just now and said.
"She said she wanted the heart, and I was there...... Impossible, why do I think this is a bit strange, why did the human-faced toad want us to see the woman? I muttered to myself, my brow furrowed.
"What, you...... Gee...... Did you see that woman too? Ke Xiaoyue looked at me in surprise, and an unimaginable look flashed in her eyes.
"I don't know if we're seeing the same person, but if so, I'm wondering why we all see that woman in our dreams? Isn't she hinting at something to us? As I finished speaking, I told them what I had just dreamed about.
"Ahh You said I also appeared in your dreams, this ...... Is it really a girl like me? After hearing this, Ke Xiaoyue was very surprised.
Suddenly, she was a little scared and hugged the waitress Shizuko, and heard her say in horror: "Could it be that she is here?" ”
She? Here she comes? I suddenly had a nervous fluctuation, why is this "she coming" so weird, that night, my father said to me "she is coming"
What's going on? Suddenly, I felt that things were not easy.
"She? Who is it? "I feel like they're scared of what they call her.
"This can't be, she's gone, it's impossible to come back!" Boss Ke's eyes changed, and he suddenly lowered his head and sighed.
I didn't understand who they were talking about by "she" at all.
I winced and asked Shizuko, the waitress next to me, "Beauty, who are they talking about?" ”
"Yes......" Shizuko, the waitress, glanced at Boss Ke, and whispered with a little dodge in her eyes: "Anyway, she is not human." ”
"Ahh I looked at Shizuko, the waitress, in disbelief.
I still wanted to ask, but I saw Boss Ke glaring at the waitress Shizuko expressionlessly, and the waitress Shizuko immediately shook her head and said, "I don't know." ”
I looked at the waitress Shizuko, and then at Ke Xiaoyue. But seeing Ke Xiaoyue smiled, he didn't say anything, but looked out the window.
Then, she changed the subject and said, "It's getting dark." ”
"yes." I don't think they really want to tell me who "she" is, so I have to do it.
I got up, walked to the window, and looked out, it was pitch black.
But at this moment, I suddenly saw a little light shining through the leaves in the distance, like candlelight.
I looked at it and said unconsciously, "I didn't expect any of you to use candles to light it here!" ”
"With candles? No, we haven't had candles here since we had electricity, because we usually use electric lights. Ke Xiaoyue smiled and asked, "So, how can it be lit with candles?" ”
"That's not right! You didn't say that electric lighting is usually used, so maybe some of you here like to light candles! I said with a smile.
"Then I don't know about them." Ke Xiaoyue shook her head and said, "However, there should be few people who use it." ”
I nodded and said, "That's it." By the way, is that place across your window from an attic? ”
"The attic? Do you see the attic? Let me see. Ke Xiaoyue walked over and looked out the window.
"That'...... Kindness? I looked at the candlelight again and was stunned.
Originally, I was about to point to the place where there was a candle just now to Ke Xiaoyue, but I didn't know that when I looked back at Ke Xiaoyue, I saw that the candlelight just now was gone.
"Where?" Ke Xiaoyue had already come to my side, the probe looked out, and saw nothing outside the dark window, so she couldn't help asking, "Are you lying to me?" ”
I wiped my eyes and looked, but I still didn't see the candlelight coming back on.
"It's weird." I looked at the dark sky, shook my head, and said, "I really saw it just now." ”
Ke Xiaoyue looked at it again. Then he leaned on the window, very unhappy.
I wondered and asked, "Is there anyone living across this window?" ”
"No one." Ke Xiaoyue shook her head and said, "There is indeed an attic not far in front of here, but I haven't been there to play for a long time." ”
"And from this window, can you see the attic in front of you?" I asked.
"Yes." She nodded, smiled and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"That would illustrate the problem." I smiled and realized that I was smart.
"What's the problem, let me tell you, the attic not far away from the opposite side is now unoccupied."
"No one lives? No way, the candlelight I just saw should have come from that attic, how could it be that no one lived there? I said with a smile of disbelief.
Ke Xiaoyue pouted and said, "If you don't believe it, it's casual." ”
"Okay. From here, if the weather is good, you can see a few lofts! "Something suddenly occurred to me.
"Ask me what I'm doing! You won't be able to read it yourself! You don't believe what I'm saying anyway. Ke Xiaoyue said unhappily because of my words.
"I'm sorry, you know, how do I see it in the darkness outside!" I said with a wry smile.
"What's the matter with me?" Ke Xiaoyue pouted.
"Little brother, did you just say you saw light outside?" Boss Ke asked me suddenly.
"Well, that light seems to come from a candlelight, but somehow I turned my head and looked at it again, it's really a bit weird." I nodded.
"How can there be candles?" Boss Ke muttered suddenly.
"Ahh Boss Ke, your face is so ugly! I glanced at him, and suddenly found that Boss Ke's face was pale, and his eyes were looking straight out of the window.
"Dad, it's okay!" Ke Xiaoyue walked over, pulled the sleeve of Boss Lake, and continued: "There will definitely be no one in that pavilion, he must be talking nonsense, otherwise if you look outside, there will be no one at all!" ”
"Huh." Boss Ke retracted his gaze and laughed dryly.
"Damn, you won't believe what I said, it's just ......" I suddenly took a cold breath and thought of a terrible thing, so I turned to look at Boss Ke.
I thought of a terrible thing, I looked at Boss Ke and asked, "Boss Ke, apart from that attic, there are no other houses next to it, right?" ”
He nodded and said, "Yes." ”
I couldn't help but tremble, and said, "So, all you can see from here is the attic." ”
If that's right, why would Ke Xiaoyue say that no one lives there anymore? Why do I see candlelight? And Boss Ke was also a little strange after hearing this?
