"Jody? Jody?"
Jody was startled when she heard her mother's voice in the corridor. She came back to her senses and quickly responded, "I'm here! Mom!"
Hearing the footsteps getting closer, she hurried to climb down, but after her eyes passed the yellow paper on the jar, she was silent for several seconds, gritted her teeth, reached out and took the jar down.
Jiang Xi didn't find Qiao Di in the room. He went upstairs and followed the sound. He saw Qiao Di standing by the attic stairs and was a little confused: "Qiao Di, what are you doing there?"
Jody put his hands behind his back, hid the things behind his back, and smiled: "Nothing, Mom, what's wrong?"
"Qiao Ge is awake, she's looking for you." Jiang Xi turned sideways, "Let's go, this place hasn't been cleaned much, there's a lot of dust."
"Okay, Mom." Jody slowly walked to the door and followed her out.
Just after they went out, the attic stairs slowly retracted by themselves, and with a "click", the board locking the attic slammed shut.
As time went by, no one paid attention to the attic anymore.
But it seemed that something was changing quietly and silently.
On the bed in the small room on the second floor, Jodi was playing a puzzle with Jorg. She seemed to remember something and took a look at the jar on the table.
When Jody caught a glimpse of the yellow paper that had turned to ashes, he paused, his pupils shrank slightly, and a bad premonition gradually crept into his heart.
That yellow paper... spontaneously combusted?
What is this?
She quickly got out of bed and was about to check the jar, but her sight accidentally fell outside and her eyes suddenly froze with disbelief in them.
I saw that a large number of crows had gathered in the sky above the villa. Under the glow of the setting sun, the hoarse cries of the crows seemed particularly miserable, and the sound of the bell tower could be heard in the distance.
Every sound struck Jody's heart, her heart pounding, and she watched the color of the sky change from dim yellow to dark, and then return to normal after a second.
The leaves in the woods rustled, the wind blew over the lake, causing ripples on the surface of the lake, and a sad female voice came from somewhere, sounding like crying and laughing, sad and creepy.
At the same time, Qiao Xi in the room was standing straight beside the bed with a numb expression.
Suddenly, she seemed to feel something, her eyes widened suddenly, a hint of ecstasy flashed across those lifeless and dead eyes, her pupils turned black uncontrollably, the corners of her mouth curled up, and the hands hanging on both sides of her body were shaking with excitement.
Their young master...
--woke up!
In the room below the attic, a man's figure slowly emerged. His body was translucent black and his features could not be seen clearly. Only his pure black eyes revealed cold indifference. His waist-length black hair hung down behind him and he wore an inky oriental robe.
From a distance, he looked like a noble young master from a prominent family.
The man stood by the window, the warm afterglow passed through his body and shone onto the ground, refracting a dazzling light. He lowered his eyes and stared at the sunlight on the ground, his eyes cold and indifferent, and no one knew what he was thinking.
After a few seconds, the man moved slightly, suddenly turned his head slowly, squinted his eyes and looked out the window.
Smells good...
Where does the fragrance come from...
He raised his hand and stretched it out of the window, but the outside of the villa seemed to be restricted. As soon as he stretched out his hand a little, his fingertips were shocked by something.
The man withdrew his fingertips, frowned, and began to feel impatient and irritated. The sudden feeling of violence made him want to do something to vent.
The man looked coldly at the crow outside the window that was staring at him and let out a soft "tsk".
Jiang Xi and Hou Liang were packing up downstairs when suddenly a crow "thumped" into the window, making a shrill cry. Only then did they notice the movement outside the window.
After seeing the situation clearly, their bodies froze and they looked at each other, both seeing seriousness in each other's eyes.
There were strong winds and dark clouds. This was not just a simple change in the weather.
But something... is coming.
Jiang Xi pursed her lips and said nothing. Hou Liang reached out and hugged her: "It's okay, it's just like before, don't be afraid."
A barrage of bullets quietly passed through the sky.
【Oh, Bai Jingmo appears. 】
After receiving the message from the system, Yu Li opened her eyes. There was no emotion on her pretty face. She just sat up and straightened her skirt.
Suddenly, she paused and looked up as if she was aware of something. From this angle, she could only see a large window of a villa not far away.
And that big window faced the bottom of the attic.
Somehow, she seemed to meet someone's gaze.
