Behind him, Lan Yan followed, holding a baseball bat and an iron pot as a shield.
He nodded at Qin Nuo.
With a creak, the bathroom door opened. It seemed that the funnel was blocked, and water on the floor had accumulated several centimeters high.
As soon as he came in, Qin Nuo noticed something.
At the end of the bathroom, the bathtub was still overflowing with water. The woman in the bathtub was still lying there, with a white hand hanging out of the bathtub.
Lan Yan stuck close behind Qin Nuo, stared at the front, and said, "Go forward. Weren't you very brave just now?"
Qin Nuo pulled out the blood-red dagger with his left hand, and black meridians emerged on his right hand. He took a step forward and stepped on the water.
After only three steps, the bathtub responded.
Large amounts of water continued to overflow and quickly turned bright red as if dye had been added.
A strong ghostly aura filled the bathroom, making people feel suffocated and panic-stricken.
Lan Yan's pupils contracted and she clutched Qin Nuo's clothes tightly.
Qin Nuo frowned, the ghost aura was still as strong as before, but without the hatred!
In other words, the previous hatred originated from the ghost baby.
But the woman in the bathtub had no grudges.
Didn't he die with hatred?
Qin Nuo narrowed his eyes, hesitated, and continued to move forward.
As Qin Nuo got closer, the blood that was spilling out became brighter red and more glaring.
Blood soaked her trouser legs, and the temperature kept dropping. Lan Yan couldn't help but say, "Why don't we get out? That woman in the bathtub might be upset because her child ran away. If we anger her, we'll be finished!"
Qin Nuo ignored Lan Yan's words. The woman behind the curtain was very close, her long black hair covering her face...
He stopped, took a deep breath, and reached out his hand through the curtain.
Just as he was about to touch the black hair spreading on the water, Lan Yan suddenly tugged at the corner of Qin Nuo's clothes, and became more and more excited.
Qin Nuo turned around and looked at him, while Lan Yan's face was stiff and she pointed to the side.
Qin Nuo turned his head and saw a few bloody words slowly appearing on the wall.
"She killed me and dug out my child. Stranger, please help me, make that woman pay with blood, and get my child back..."
Just a few short sentences contain a huge amount of information.
Qin Nuo's eyebrows twitched involuntarily.
Lan Yan tugged at Qin Nuo and said, "Let's go."
"I died naked, and you're still trying to strip me? If I come back to life, we're really done!"
Qin Nuo listened to Lan Yan's words and turned to look at the woman in the bathtub. She emerged from the water, then sank slowly, eventually disappearing in the tub of blood that was red to black...
Seeing this, Qin Nuo withdrew his hand and began to leave the bathroom slowly.
As he stepped back, the blood on the ground gradually became transparent.
Until finally, the bathroom door was closed.
In the corridor, Lan Yan breathed a sigh of relief, patted Qin Nuo on the shoulder and said, "You should thank me. It's all thanks to me that I stopped you from committing suicide!"
Qin Nuo just said: "Maybe."
"What I care about are the words on the wall..."
"The meaning of these words is already very clear."
Lan Yan said: "Even a stupid brain like mine can figure it out."
Qin Nuo glanced at him and said, "Then tell me your speculation?"
"It's obvious that the woman in the bathtub and that idiot were a couple, but later, a third party intervened, leading to the tragedy."
"The third person who had interfered held a grudge against the man and took advantage of the man's absence to sneak into the house and take revenge by drowning the woman in the bathtub."
"Not content with the mistress's death, he cut open her belly with a knife and took out the child!"
Lan Yan spread out her hands and said, "I can't say it's exact, but it's pretty close."
"The bloody words on the wall are like writing the answer, aren't they?"
"Of course, it's also possible that the man took advantage of his wife's pregnancy to have an affair, and the lover came to the house, leading to the subsequent tragedy."
"But no matter how it unfolds, the ending is always the same: the hostess dies tragically, and the host can't accept reality and goes crazy!"
Lan Yan pinched her chin and said in a detective tone, "There's no doubt that this so-called third party must be the woman from last night!"
Seeing Qin Nuo was stunned, Lan Yan patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "How about it, are you impressed by my cool reasoning?"
"Don't always think that my head is a blockhead!"
Qin Nuo smiled and said, "To be honest, I am a little surprised."
"However, there is indeed nothing wrong with your reasoning."
Lan Yan looked into the hall, her hands on her hips as she spoke, "So, the biggest challenge now is how to find that woman from last night, and how to catch that escaped ghost baby and return it to her mother's belly..."
