“We also wanted to take pictures of her, but Xiaoling is very afraid of the camera and has a phobia of cameras, so we've never taken any,” Wu Baozhu replied.
I remember when we first brought her back, she wanted to take a picture of her to welcome her to the Wu family, but she was very reluctant to have her picture taken.
I haven't taken any more photos of her since.
"Hey, the security cameras! They must have caught it!" Wu Xiande exclaimed excitedly, suddenly remembering the security cameras installed in his home.
"Yes, there are also surveillance cameras!" Wu Baozhu said excitedly, and quickly opened her phone to pull up the video of Wu Ling when she was still at the Wu family's house.
Upon seeing the video, Wu Baozhu's hand trembled, her smile froze, and she cried out, almost dropping her phone.
Wu Xiande was puzzled by what was wrong with his wife. After glancing at his phone, his face tightened and his brows furrowed.
What's wrong? I feel like something bad is going to happen.
Is there a problem with the surveillance system?
Amitabha Buddha, Amitabha Buddha.
"The surveillance footage... Xiaoling's face on the surveillance footage... She... she doesn't... she doesn't have a face!" Wu Baozhu trembled as she pointed the surveillance footage on her phone at the camera, showing it to her viewers and Jiang Yuan.
In the surveillance footage from a few months ago, only Xiao Lian's face could be seen, while Xiao Ling's face was a blur and could not be seen at all. All that could be seen was that she was wearing the same dress as Xiao Lian and carrying the same bag.
[Ah, ah, ah, demons and monsters, leave quickly! Demons and monsters, leave quickly!]
[Holy crap, how could this be? Is that Xiaoling not human?]
I'm all alone at home, I'm scared, really scared!
The viewers in the live stream were terrified, as if they were watching a horror movie.
They used to believe in science, but now they believe in metaphysics!
I believe it very, very much!
"How could this happen, anchor? Did Xiaoling do this to Xiaolian?" Wu Xiande pressed.
After Xiaoling left, Xiaolian became abnormal.
In addition, the surveillance footage can't see Xiaoling's face; it's just a blurry mess.
This forced him to connect his granddaughter's sudden change in temperament with Xiaoling.
"Do you still remember what Xiaoling looks like?" Jiang Yuan asked.
"He was dark-skinned and somewhat malnourished. After he came to the Wu family, we fattened him up and made him fairer and plumper, but we don't really remember what he looked like."
Wu Baozhu shook her head, also finding it strange. They had spent half a year with Xiaoling, but now, when she thought back, she had no recollection of what the child looked like.
"By the way, my husband has mistaken Xiaoling for Xiaolian several times!"
Wu Baozhu seemed to have grasped something crucial and began to speak.
One instance of admitting fault is a coincidence, but several instances of admitting fault can only mean that Xiaoling and her Xiaolian are somewhat similar.
“My husband once said that the two look more and more alike the more he looks at them. Xiaoling looks a bit like my Xiaolian,” Wu Baozhu continued, then pulled out a photo of her granddaughter from her phone and zoomed in on it in the live stream.
“It’s not Xiaoling who’s missing, it’s Xiaolian.” Jiang Yuan said after hearing what Wu Baozhu said and seeing Wu Lian’s photo.
"Does the master mean... that the person knocking on the door in the room wasn't my Xiaolian?" Wu Xiande was the first to react and asked.
"No, that's impossible. She looks exactly like my Xiaolian, even her height and voice."
Wu Baozhu was stunned, and at the same time felt a chill run down her spine.
“The surveillance footage shows that Xiaoling’s height is about the same as your granddaughter’s. As for her voice, she can fake it,” Jiang Yuan reminded her.
“Why would she do this? We treat her the same as our own granddaughter, without any difference.” Wu Baozhu didn’t understand.
Since bringing her back, she has everything that Xiao Lian has.
He doted on her and cared for her in the same way he did for Xiao Lian.
“No matter how good you are to her, she is not of the Wu family bloodline. You are treating her equally now, but what about in the future? The Wu family is large and powerful. Will you divide the Wu family equally between the two of them in the future?” Jiang Yuan asked.
Wu Baozhu and Wu Xiande remained silent in front of the camera.
The Wu family's wealth was the result of their hard work; it's impossible for them to give half of it to Xiaoling later.
However, they were also willing to give Xiaoling a small company to manage herself, and she would still be the Wu family's adopted daughter, so she wouldn't have to worry about food or clothing in the future.
"If I want to truly win your favor, then I have to completely become Xiao Lian and truly become your granddaughter."
"So she wanted to substitute one thing for another and take over the other's place."
"As for eating raw meat and torturing birds and cats, that's her nature. She's not human at all."
Jiang Yuan continued, her voice turning colder.
“Not a person, then, then…” Wu Baozhu was stunned.
Who would have thought that she would adopt something that wasn't even human and bring it home, and even harm her own granddaughter!
"Yes, she is a Pixiu that has cultivated to become a spirit. She can transform into a human, learn human personality and disguise the other person's voice. She loves to eat meat, especially raw meat. As long as she stays with the other person for a long time, she will gradually transform into the other person's appearance. That's why Mr. Wu sometimes mistakes her."
"Once you become completely like the other person, you will replace them and integrate into society. Over time, you will become no different from a normal person. The only thing you can't change is your love for eating raw meat."
Jiang Yuan explained.
"Host, what about my Xiaolian?" Wu Baozhu pressed.
“Your Xiaolian was buried under that peach tree in the garden by her,” Jiang Yuan replied.
Wu Baozhu immediately rushed out, while Wu Xiande called Zhang Ma to grab an iron shovel and go to dig under the peach tree in the garden.
One shovel, two shovels, they dug countless times before they finally saw a corner of the red dress.
Wu Baozhu excitedly dug at the mud with her hands, calling out, "Xiao Lian, Xiao Lian!"
When they finally dug the person out of the burial site, Wu Baozhu collapsed to the ground, covered her mouth, and tears streamed down her face.
