Chapter 294: Midnight Haunted House 82
The three people found nothing and could only come out of the master bedroom. At this time, Ye Jian suddenly made a gesture to keep quiet.
Because he saw the light on in the south-facing bedroom.
Just now, three people came out of the south-facing bedroom. Ye Jian closed the door casually. The door was closed at this time, but light was coming through the gap.
Then a woman's stern voice was heard.
"What's wrong with you? You can't even do such a simple question. Are you paying attention in class?"
Then there was a little boy's feeble defense, saying that he had listened carefully.
"Does this look like you're listening carefully? You only got 98 points in math. I'm so disappointed in you."
"And the two points deducted were completely unjustified. This wasn't carelessness, this was a complete lack of effort."
"Eat, what to eat? If you don't get 100 points on the test, you can't eat."
"You did three tests? Is that enough? You got 98 points, not 100. Do another one."
"Sleeping? It's only eleven o'clock now. Why are you sleeping? Students should be studying."
Su Qingyun, Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe stood outside the door and listened for a full twenty minutes.
This strict mother never repeated a word, but the content was the same: it was all about learning.
Apart from his initial defense, the little boy was almost silent afterwards.
Another ten minutes passed.
The bedroom door opened and an elongated figure walked out from behind the door.
It was a little boy, about ten years old. He came out of the bedroom like a zombie, holding a set of test papers in his hands.
He looked pale, and it was obvious that he didn't often go out for exercise.
Moreover, his eye sockets were sunken and he had dark circles under his eyes. He didn't look like a child of about ten years old at all, but more like a dried corpse without a soul.
He walked silently towards the kitchen.
Su Qingyun and the other two did not move. They stood there and watched him walk into the kitchen.
After a while, he came out of the kitchen with a knife in his hand.
He walked towards the north-facing bedroom and opened the door.
There was no light in the bedroom, but one could clearly see that there was a person lying on the bed which had been empty just now.
It was a woman, lying on her back.
Then, Su Qingyun and the other two saw the little boy walk to the bed and raise the knife high.
Blood flowed down the woman's neck and slowly flowed out of the bedroom.
At this time, the little boy cried very loudly. He shouted "Mom, Mom", but his hands did not stop. He still chopped at his mother with one knife after another.
Su Qingyun's heart suddenly sank. After experiencing five copies of haunted houses, she never thought that the things that happened in those haunted houses were cruel.
But the truth behind this one-star haunted house caused her great discomfort.
This is a tragedy.
A human tragedy.
If this was a dream, it must have been the little boy's dream.
In the dream he killed his mother.
Su Qingyun closed her eyes.
Xu Xinghe and Ye Jian rushed into the bedroom and put a garbage bag over the little boy's head.
Everything returned to calm.
After the little boy's soul rested in the garbage bag, everything in the room slowly became covered in dust.
But Su Qingyun saw a mother getting up at five in the morning to cook millet porridge and fry bread for her son who was going to school.
Then I watched her collect various learning materials and organize them into a book.
I also saw that she was reluctant to buy even a lipstick and was determined to enroll her son in a training class.
The mother’s hard work is also evident in every grain of rice.
But this is a tragedy.
"Let's go." Ye Jian walked out of the bedroom and said to Su Qingyun.
Only then did he realize that Su Qingyun was already in tears.
"What's wrong?" Xu Xinghe also saw Su Qingyun crying, and hurried over to ask.
"I kind of believe what Yun Xuantian said. I think these copies might really be dreams."
"Do you believe in dream beasts?"
"In the book Ghost Hunter, the master mentioned that there is a beast in this world that likes to eat nightmares. The dream beast that Yun Xuantian mentioned might be the beast that likes to eat their nightmares."
"If that's the case, I hope all these copies disappear, because each one is a human tragedy."
"And for us, the trial-takers, to pick it apart, witness it, and unfold it in other people's tragedies is also a kind of cruelty."
So, this all has to end.
Ye Jian looked at Su Qingyun, walked over and gave her a hug. He whispered in her ear, "Don't show your emotions in the dungeon. It's easy for them to monitor you."
Su Qingyun quickly took a deep breath.
She nodded at Ye Jian.
The three people left room 602 and reached the third floor when the white-haired old woman opened the door again.
She asked Su Qingyun and the other two, "Have you finished visiting friends?"
"Yes, Grandma."
"What are you doing visiting a house where the whole family is dead?"
"Cleansing up the evil spirits." Su Qingyun took out her work ID. "We are employees of the haunted house cleaning company."
"Oh, it's the cleaning company." The old woman was very happy. She pointed to the corridor and said, "It's time to clean it up. Look how dirty it is."
After saying that, she curled her lips again and said, "But I won't pay the fee. I'm going to the nursing home tomorrow."
nursing home?
"Why do you want to go to a sanatorium?" Su Qingyun asked.
"I'm old and useless, so my son and daughter paid to send me to a nursing home. They wanted to send me there, but I refused. Why would I go to a nursing home when I have children?"
"But I'm willing to go to the sanatorium. I heard that Shuifuli Sanatorium is nestled in the mountains and next to water, and the environment is particularly good. There are doctors and nurses there. As a patient, they have to take care of me."
After hearing what the other party said, Su Qingyun immediately asked, "Grandma, do you know the Shuifuli Sanatorium?"
"Of course I know. Everyone here knows."
"Then do you know how to get to the Shuifuli Sanatorium?"
The old woman poked her head out a little and said to Su Qingyun mysteriously, "After leaving our Xiangyangli, walk straight ahead until you reach a bus stop. Take bus No. 33 to Bulao Station, then get off. Then walk further in and you will find the Shuifuli Sanatorium."
Take bus No. 33 to Bulao Station!
The immortal station!
Su Qingyun quickly glanced at Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe.
Ye Jian touched his nose. He did not respond to Su Qingyun's gaze but said to the old woman, "Grandma, it's already midnight. You should go to bed early. Your children can take you to Shuifuli Sanatorium early tomorrow morning."
"Yes, yes, yes, you are right. It's time for me, an old woman, to go to bed." After saying that, she closed the door.
The corridor immediately fell into dead silence.
Ye Jian urged them to hurry up.
The three of them quickly went downstairs.
They turned around and looked at the building. The window frames of the house where the old woman had lived had fallen off and it looked dilapidated.
It doesn't look like an inhabited house at all.
Xu Xinghe whispered to Su Qingyun, "It's just past midnight now. Should we go look for the Bulao Station?"
This sentence hit the mark exactly as Su Qingyun was thinking. She had thought of this since the old woman mentioned the Bulao Station.
But, would this be against the rules?
Ye Jian, "The rules only say that you must be back to the company before five in the morning."
It's not impossible, it's just a matter of how to determine the timing.
Because there is no time after midnight here.
