Master Yu took the photo, looked at it for a while, and nodded slowly: "In fact, he lived a very painful life..."
"Then do you know what's going on with the three Zhangs in Room 401 and the couple in Room 404?" Qiao Yan asked. Master Yu glanced at her and knew that she had made some guesses, so he told her the truth.
"You want to know why they look so similar?" Master Yu said, "Actually, they don't really exist at all. They just appeared one day, and everyone knows them, as if they've always lived here. But I can see some of them, and I can see that they are nothingness."
"Then I thought, maybe it was her, the dead mother, who turned into a ghost after her death and haunted this place. She was the one who brought these two families here and asked them to pretend that she was still happy."
"But I might be wrong. Starting this year, the incinerator next to the community has been burning paper money on its own. Many people have said they saw a man and a woman crying and burning paper money. This is what that couple did back then."
"Also, strange dark figures occasionally linger near the neighborhood. It seems like truth and falsehood are all mixed together here now, and the tragedy that happened back then seems about to happen again."

Qiao Yan shook her head. She didn't know. Going back? It would be dangerous. But staying outside didn't seem to be much safer either...
They walked towards the entrance of the alley in silence, and soon they heard a "bang" sound behind them. On this night when the bright moon was always obscured by dark clouds, Master Yu lay on the cold ground, his mouth opened for the last time, and he completely lost his voice.
