When the entire alley in front of Wooden House No. 133 was filled with loud singing, Smiley's defeat was inevitable.
No force can reverse it.
Lin Mo rushed in, saw his father and the coffin carrier, and they looked at each other. Dad Lin was quite surprised, but didn't say anything. Instead, he immediately came over to help his son control the remaining smiley monsters.
Soon, the smiling monsters in this alley were transformed back one by one.
After using the Bewitching Curse for a long time and at a high frequency, Lin Mo's understanding of this curse has reached a very high level. Sometimes he can even rely on language to control the thinking and actions of a target in a very short period of time.
Of course, this was an ability he discovered by chance after practicing hundreds of times.
It is still immature, and it is not successful every time. It is more like a flash of inspiration after multiple attempts.
The crisis in front of Cabin 133 was quickly resolved.
Lin Mo led a large group of people and started to clear out the smiley monsters in each alley.
It's a long process.
It may take several days to completely cure the nightmare of the entire Thrift Alley.
So when Lin Mo saw that there was only one hour left before he woke up, he stopped.
The situation in Junk Alley has stabilized.
The area where the smiley monsters are entrenched is not particularly large. At most, only one-third of the area is left. Moreover, after being bewitched by Lin Mo, Nightmare is immune to smiley faces for a short period of time.
Here, a smile can no longer cause any trouble.
Lin Mo found his father and prepared to ask him about Liu Jia and what happened five years ago.
This was his main purpose for coming to the Junk Alley. "Dad, I have something to ask you."
"Okay, let's talk inside the house." Dad Lin glanced at Lin Mo, then turned and walked into a room next door.
The house is simple.
Tables, chairs, tea sets, and then nothing more
"sit!"
Dad Lin asked Lin Mo to sit down and poured him a cup of tea.
"What's the matter?" Father Lin asked after finishing his work.
Lin Mo always asks questions directly.
"Dad, did you take me to the East Suburb Abandoned Mine five years ago?" This was a very direct question. Sure enough, Dad Lin's face changed. He turned his head and found that his son was staring at him. Dad Lin smiled and slowly looked away.
"Dad's memory is not very good. Besides, who can remember what happened five years ago? Come, have some tea. It tastes very good. You made quite a noise this time. Tell me what happened on the way..."
This is intended to fool.
No one knows his father better than his son.
Lin Mo knew about his father's preference. If he was asked something he didn't want to say, he would just play it safe and try to get away with it. When Lin Mo was young, this trick always worked, but it definitely wouldn't work now.
"Dad, tell me the truth, what happened five years ago?"
Lin Mo's expression was serious.
Father Lin saw that this trick didn't work, and immediately frowned: "Did someone say anything to you?"
Being shrewd and calculating, he decided to test the waters first.
Lin Mo simply told the whole situation in detail.
"Dad, I went to see my high school teacher Zhang, asked my classmates, and even met my uncle in the East Suburbs Abandoned Mine. Don't fool me. Tell me what's going on. I can't hide it."
Hearing this, Father Lin's face looked a little ugly, and there was a hint of panic in his eyes.
"Xiao Mo, did you go to the East Suburbs Abandoned Mine?"
“I’m going!”
"Have you been down to the mines?"
"I was going to go, but my uncle stopped me. He told me everything, so don't try to fool me."
When Lin's father heard that Lin Mo did not go down the mine, he breathed a sigh of relief and seemed a little scared.
Lin Mo nodded: "Dad, what you said makes sense, but I am very upset now because I can't remember anything. Also, why did I forget those memories, and who is Liu Jia?"
"You really want to know?"
"I really want to know!"
"No room for relaxation?"
"Not at all."
"Okay!" Dad Lin stood up, walked back and forth a few steps with his hands behind his back, as if he was thinking, or organizing his words. Then he walked to the door, pushed it open, and ran away!
Lin Mo held the teacup in his hand and was stunned for three full seconds.
Then he spat out a mouthful of tea.
"You old man have no moral principles!"
After saying that, he jumped up from the chair and hurried to chase after him.
When I went out, there was no sign of my dad. He ran too fast.
Lin Mo was so angry that he stamped his feet and chased out of the alley, not knowing where the other person ran to. At the alley entrance, Half Nightmare was lying on a security guard. When he saw Lin Mo coming out, he hurried over.
"Did you see my dad running out just now?" Lin Mo asked hurriedly.
Half-Nightmare shook his head.
Lin Mo's heart skipped a beat and he immediately ran back.
When he arrived at the door of the previous room, it was now closed and the curtains were drawn. Lin Mo pushed the door, but it couldn't be opened. It was locked from the inside.
Lin Mo was not vague either, he took out a brick and started smashing it.
However, there is a force on this door that cannot be destroyed at all.
Windows too.
Lin Mo's arms were sore from being smashed, but the house was still intact.
"Dad, come out and let's talk."
"What's the point of you hiding? Hiding won't solve the problem."
"Dad, can you come out? If you don't, I'm really worried."
No matter how Lin Mo challenged him, there was no one inside, as if no one was there. But Lin Mo knew that his father was hiding inside, but he didn't expect that when he asked about what happened five years ago, his father would rather hide than tell anyone.
The more this question came up, the more curious Lin Mo became and the more he wanted to know.
In the end, Lin Mo was forced into a corner.
He thought about it, turned around, and said as he walked: "Okay, Dad, since you don't want to tell me, I'll go to the East Suburb Abandoned Mine to ask Liu Jia. I think she will definitely be willing to tell me."
Just as he finished speaking, the door behind him opened.
Dad Lin stood at the door with a helpless look on his face.
"Come in."
Lin Mo turned around and walked back into the house.
I secretly thought I had won.
Dad really fell for it. Looking at his expression just now, he was very worried that he might have entered the mine. It seemed that all the secrets were down there.
With this trick, my dad finally gave in.
In the room, Father Lin sighed several times before he spoke: "Xiao Mo, since you insist on listening, okay, I can tell you, but you have to promise me that you will never go to the East Suburb Abandoned Mine again."
"Okay!" Lin Mo thought about it and nodded.
Father Lin let out a long sigh, his expression seemed to be lost in memories, and he slowly said: "I thought I would never have to tell this matter, but who could have thought that things in this world are unpredictable, and after going around in circles, you were dragged into it again... Hey, I have never believed in fate, but all this is really God's will, you can't help but believe it."
"I can tell you first. Let's start with Liu Jia. She was indeed your classmate in high school. She was very familiar with you. Dad also knew her. She was accidentally implicated in this matter..."
