"Mom, we just walked around the neighborhood and really didn't do much. Look, didn't my sister and I get home safely?" Mo Zhefan said with a sneer.
"How dare you say that! If Xiao Lu hadn't been on duty and kindly sent you back, do you really think you are a great detective? Since you like solving crimes so much, why don't you two apply for criminal investigation and contribute to the country? ?" Qin Peihan's eyes turned white with anger, and he didn't want to say anything more to them.
Seeing this, Mo Bolun quickly stepped forward to pour her a glass of water, and patted the woman's back thoughtfully to comfort her: "Okay, the children are already so old, and they have their own opinions and ideas in their hearts. As parents, we can rest assured when we see that they are safe."
"Safe? They knew clearly about the murder that happened in the apartment opposite, but they still had to search for the answer regardless of the sky and the earth. For a little curiosity, they turned a deaf ear to what their parents said. If Xiao Lu hadn't sent them back, let me hear it I heard my voice, are they still hiding it from me?" Qin Peihan continued to scold them.
Mo Zhefan touched his nose and was about to refute something, but Qin Yu grabbed his sleeve.
"Okay, mom, don't be angry. It's true that Xiaofan and I did something wrong in this matter. We promise that we will never mess up again." Qin Yu was afraid that Qin Peihan would continue to be angry, so he quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake with Mo Zhefan. .
"Do you know why you are not allowed to go out at night? Because the police issued a residents' notice. That old lady did not commit suicide at all! If you go to the murder scene for a walk again, believe it or not -"
"Mu Zhi, stop saying a few words and don't scare the children!" Mo Bolun interrupted Qin Peihan urgently.
Not suicidal?
Could it be that, as they had guessed tonight, there was really a murderer hiding in the dark who also killed the old lady who lived alone?
Qin Yu's expression suddenly turned ugly.
"If there really is a murderer in our residential area, or someone else who is more terrifying, no one can guarantee what will happen until the police catch the real murderer. You are all grown up, and you should understand something. It's for your own safety. Xiao Yu, you are the elder sister. Your brother is in his third year of high school and will take the college entrance examination in one year. At this juncture, you can make up your own mind." Qin Peihan finished this sentence coldly After saying that, he got up and went back to his room, not even wanting to spare them a glance.
Mo Bolun said awkwardly: "Your mother has such a temper, but she is also worried about you. When I came back tonight, I heard that the police were hunting the murderer. We live on the second floor here, which is relatively low. Remember to turn off the door when you sleep at night. Good windows have good curtains.”
"Chasing the murderer?" Qin Yu and Mo Zhefan looked at each other.
"Okay, I'll go back to your room to coax your mother, and you should go to bed early." Mo Bolun touched their heads, turned around and entered his and Qin Peihan's room.
"Sister, how about I go to your room and sit for a while? If you are really scared, how about we change the room back again?" Mo Zhefan suggested.
Qin Yu slapped his forehead with hatred: "Are you stupid? If we change rooms, how can you study well? My previous room was on the back of the mountain, and the environment was very quiet. It was specially used for you to prepare for the exam. Yes. Let’s change it back after you finish the college entrance examination.”
"Then let me go to your place to drink some milk first." Without saying anything, Mo Zhefan put his arm around Qin Yu's shoulders and came to her bedroom.
As soon as he entered the bedroom, Qin Yu took him a bottle of milk from the cabinet with ease: "If you are really worried about your sister, why not lay the floor here?"
"Making a floor? Are you willing to let your handsome brother sleep on the floor?" Mo Zhefan took a sip of milk and deliberately teased her.
Qin Yu rolled his eyes speechlessly, and just about to scold him, the next second there was a clear knocking sound from the window.
"Dong dong dong".
The rhythmic blows sounded one after another, and the hairs on both of them stood up instantly, and no one dared to make any more noise.
Time passed by minute by second, and I don't know how long it took before the frightening knocking sound gradually disappeared.
Qin Yu fell on the bed completely exhausted, not daring to go over and look at the situation on the other side of the window.
However, Mo Zhefan mustered up his courage and moved forward step by step.
"Sister, I'm so nervous." Mo Zhefan glanced at Qin Yu on the bed, then closed his eyes and forcefully opened the curtains.
I saw a large blood-red character left on the originally transparent glass - Death!
