The door was closed.
Everyone looked at each other outside.
After a long time, Blue Stripe finally spoke tentatively.
"How about we look elsewhere first?"
There are only two rooms on the second floor, and the rest is a huge open space.
There are no tables, chairs or benches, which is in sharp contrast to the cramped space downstairs.
Everyone walked around and found nothing.
The high ponytail is a bit disappointing.
"Then our trip was in vain? We didn't find anything."
"Just those two rooms."
Blue Stripes slumped on the ground and looked at the two rooms unwillingly.
"He just entered that room, right?"
Blue Stripe asked, pointing to the room the boy had just entered.
There were nods around him.
"Then why don't we go to another room, and then let a few people go outside to have fun, and we can share the information we get."
Blue Stripe was a little excited, and everyone also agreed.
"Go downstairs."
Ignoring everyone's rising emotions, Xi Yu greeted Gu Qiao and the other three to go downstairs.
"You won't go in?"
"No," Xi Yu raised her hand to refuse: "I have no plans to commit suicide at the moment."
"You! What do you mean?!"
Blue Stripe was a little angry, but some people around him were already starting to waver.
"I'm telling you, if you leave now, we won't tell you when we get the clues!"
Blue stripes threaten.
He is not a fool, Xi Yu and others are experienced veterans at first glance.
With these people, the chance of escaping unharmed will definitely increase greatly.
Several people in the team who were hesitating whether to leave with Xi Yu became determined because of these words, and stood at the door to look out for Blue Stripes.
Xi Yu didn't comment and took the three of them back to the room.
"Go to sleep, we have things to do tomorrow morning."
Xi Yu said and lay down first, as if he was about to fall asleep in the next second.
Li Shu didn't say much and lay down as well.
"Why don't we go up and take a look? The boy is so nervous about those two rooms. There might be something important in there!"
Qin He was a little excited, but then he was stunned by Qin Yuan who suddenly appeared from his backpack.
"I'll sleep with you, it's really noisy."
Qin He, who was beaten by his sister, couldn't lose his temper at all, so he responded with a smile and fell down on the bed.
The ceiling is also made of wood.
Gu Qiao looked at the ceiling. The next second, a sharp horn penetrated the wooden board and entered the room.
The room is not soundproof, and the noise happening above can be clearly heard below.
Soon, there was a rush at the stairs.
Cries mixed with screams echoed throughout the corridor.
Xi Yu closed her eyes and listened to the footsteps coming from the man's room at the end of the corridor.
The door is opened.
The sound of the sickle striking the ground was clear and harsh.
Immediately afterwards there were bursts of sound breaking through the air.
Before long, the corridor fell into a deathly silence.
The man dragged the sickle back to the room.
The whole process only takes ten minutes.
Seeing that it was quiet, Xi Yu closed her eyes and was about to go to bed, but there was another knock on the door.
There was a weak knock on the door, and Xi Yu was just about to pretend not to hear it, but the sound of a bug drifted in through the crack in the door.
"Sister, are you there? Xiaochong is scared and wants to sleep with you."
The three people in the room became energetic and looked at Xi Yu as if they were looking at ghosts.
The meaning is self-evident.
How on earth did you hook up with this kid?
Seeing Xi Yu stand up, Li Shu hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold her shoulders and shook his head at her.
This person is dangerous and must not be let in.
"Don't worry, she is very weak."
Xi Yu said, stood up and opened the door.
Xiao Chong was holding a dirty pillow in his arms. When he saw the door opened, he whispered his thanks with surprise in his eyes.
"come in."
Xi Yu put the person on his bed.
For a moment, Xiaochong looked at the three heads that suddenly came over, and for the first time in his life, he had the illusion that he might be a pet.
"Hello everyone."
She greeted timidly.
Qin He likes bugs very much, and he will reach out to scratch people's faces.
"Why are you here?"
"Dad went out tonight and I'm scared."
Xi Yu immediately realized that because of the accident on the second floor, the man came out one more time today.
It must be full of blood outside now.
"Sister went to the second floor today."
Xiao Chong looked at Xi Yu with a positive tone.
"If you make your brother angry, your mother will beat you."
"No," Xi Yu said nonsense seriously: "Your brother had a lot of fun with us, and we agreed to continue meeting tomorrow."
"this……"
When Xiaochong heard the words, her expression was a little dull. This seemed to be beyond her scope of cognition. She reacted for a while before muttering in a low voice:
"Impossible. My brother hates people entering his bedroom and study. He must be very angry."
"He wasn't angry and invited us into his room."
Xi Yu continued to coax the child without raising his head or eyes.
"And you keep saying that he will be angry if you go in. Have you ever gone in?"
Xiao Chong had no idea that he had fallen into the trap of the old fox, and nodded blankly:
"I have been in my brother's study."
"I don't believe it until you tell me what it's like inside."
"I actually went in there!"
Xiao Chong was anxious, and she said urgently:
"There are tall bookshelves and many books inside, as well as many children. I like it very much, but my brother is very angry and my mother is also very angry."
"A lot of kids?"
Xi Yu sensitively caught the suspicion and was about to continue talking when he was interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Come out! Is that little brat in there? Let her come out!"
The man didn't know when he came out of the room door, and he knocked harder and harder every time.
Xiaochong immediately curled up into a ball when he heard the sound, and was then hugged and stuffed into a quilt by Li Shu.
"We were sleeping and you were noisy."
The knocking on the door stopped, and Xi Yu turned his eyes to the door with a familiarity.
Then he met the man's eyes.
"Is this how you treat guests by disturbing their sleep?"
Xi Yu said, raising his foot and kicking the opponent while he wasn't paying attention.
"ah!--"
The man covered his eyes and stood outside the door, shouting:
"Let her come out! You will be killed by her! What kind of good person do you think she is?"
The man smiled more and more fiercely:
"She is a monster! A man-eating monster!"
"She will eat you all! No one will be left!"
Xi Yu turned to look at Xiao Chong, who was shivering under the quilt, and raised the long knife in his hand.
The blunt tip of the knife was pointed at Xiaochong's throat, and with just a little force, she could be stabbed through.
Xiao Chong knelt down on the bed, with tears that had not yet dried up in the corners of his eyes.
"elder sister……"
She looked at the tip of the knife in front of her and looked at Xi Yu blankly.
"Do you really believe him?"
The tip of the knife took a step closer, and the insect's neck was pierced, and drops of bright red blood flowed out, hitting the blade of the knife.
"I don't believe in him, I believe in myself."
Xi Yu looked at Xiao Chong with firm eyes and slowly said:
"Stop pretending, I already knew it."
