[If you capture the Wallfacer for me, I can re-find Ye Ting's whereabouts for you, and you don't need to give me any feedback. It's my supply to you. 】
"Okay." Shen Xing nodded.
Since it's a free gift, no one wants it.
Originally, he was still hesitating whether to let the "consultant" find out his identity in the second contract or continue to pursue Ye Ting.
Now it seems that his identity may be related to Ye Ting's disappearance. If this is the case, then these seem to be two problems. In fact, in the final analysis, they still point to the same problem.
The mystery of Shen Xing's identity and the mystery of Ye Ting's disappearance are both related to anomalies.
Although this "consultant" can sense Shen Xing's position, he doesn't know what he is doing or the results of his actions. Instead, he can only find out through text asking.
This is the conclusion that Shen Xing can draw at present.
It shows that "consultants" are not omnipotent in information, and they also have limitations.
Shen Xing booked a flight ticket back to the big city of Heshan in Kuazhou, left the hotel in the afternoon and headed to the airport.
Arriving at Heshan City at seven o'clock in the evening, Shen Xing felt as if he was dusty all the way there.
And this week is about to pass, that is, he needs to face the next week's weekly kill.
After arriving at the hotel in the evening, I talked to Feifei on the phone. Everything was normal there.
Feifei and Erguo get along very happily. According to Feifei, Erguo looks the same as normal people except for not sleeping. He eats, drinks, watches TV and plays puzzles the same way.
However, he did not touch the wood carvings that Shen Xing placed on the workbench, and did not even look at them, as if these wood carvings did not exist at all in his eyes.
That's good, otherwise Shen Xing would be worried that if he had nothing to do with a flat knife or a curved knife, and poke a few times at the wood carving he had completed, he would definitely beat the shit out of this guy when he went back.
According to Feifei, Erhuo's IQ is indeed improving. It can be seen from his playing puzzles. The version of the puzzle that Shen Xing bought for Feifei at first was later given to Erhuo by Feifei and has now been put together by Erhuo. .
Recently, he started to put together the 1,024-piece puzzle. Although it was still far from complete, he put it together very carefully and thought about it very carefully.
According to Feifei's guess, Erhuo is like a child. From the beginning he didn't understand anything, but now he has improved rapidly. Every time he meets, he will feel bright.
I believe he will become more powerful soon.
But there is one thing. Even if the IQ is improving, the idiots still don't seem to like talking. They just do it silently and rarely communicate with others, let alone take the initiative to communicate.
Shen Xing was also aware of these situations, but he felt that Erhuo was sincerely kind to Feifei, so it didn't feel out of the ordinary.
Of course, one must be vigilant against him.
Sitting in one of the hotels in Heshan City, Shen Xing didn't go out, looking at the night outside the window, staring down at the sequence board in his hand from time to time.
The panels of this sequence are uneven and show a lot of veining.
The texture is mainly based on the display method of a map, with a deep ravine in the middle, which is the main chain of the γ-6 sequence. There are five nodes on the chain, extending out, and around each node is a map-like display.
Shen Xing placed his index finger on the fifth node and rubbed it gently. Next to his hand, there was a city map of Heshan City.
According to comparison with this city map, the location of the fifth node is exactly the opposite direction seen through the hotel.
The tall building on the right is an office building, and on the left is a chain supermarket. The building in the middle is an old-fashioned residential building with some age. It is not a community, but may be employee housing built by a certain unit decades ago.
Of course, the people living here may have changed a long time ago, and they will no longer be the old workers.
This street is not the main street of the city, and the number of pedestrians on the road is not very large. However, there used to be a sub-station of the bus station next door, but it was later moved. Now the hotel where Shen Xing lives is no longer in business and may be closed soon.
On the upper floor of the old-fashioned residence opposite, there were only a few lights on at the moment. It looked sparse, and it felt like not many people lived there.
After a while, Shen Xing retrieved the information about Yao Tong from his mind.
[Name: Yao Tong
Sequence level: medium sequence
Sequence Analogy: Category II
Sequence Source: Fear
Cause: mental torture
Description of this category: She is in pain and needs to constantly take medication to treat mental illness to suppress her schizophrenia. By the way, do you think she is a girl? No, it just looks like a girl. 】
The original photo of Yao Tong is still there. The girl is about sixteen years old. She has long, yellowish hair, and it looks a little greasy. It seems that she hasn’t washed it for a long time. Her eyes in the photo give people a sense of dull eyes. The feeling of God.
Because the background in the photo is black, when you look at the thin girl alone, you feel an inexplicable and weird feeling of terror.
…
Dark room.
A dim electric lamp hung from the ceiling, automatically swaying in the absence of wind.
All the items in the room became hazy under the dim yellow light, as if they were covered with an old and aged color.
As the light shook, other items in the room also swayed in shadow, giving the illusion that everything in the room was moving slowly.
A girl of about sixteen years old was sitting at a square table next to the window in the room. She was wearing a white dress that was already yellowing. She had drooped eyebrows and greasy long hair on her shoulders. She was staring at the table. A simple and compact music box.
However, this music box has long been damaged and can no longer rotate.
The weather at this moment has been in autumn for a long time. The temperature of the room where the girl is sitting is only about 17 degrees, but she is only wearing this thin dress. The dress has short sleeves, and her slender arms like tree branches are exposed, but there is no trace of her. Signs of chills.
The girl had been staring at the music box for who knows how long. Although there were sounds of vehicles passing by, the voices of passers-by and other miscellaneous sounds on the street, she could not hear anything.
All the attention seemed to be on the music box.
At this moment, three knocks on the door suddenly sounded.
At the moment when the knock on the door rang, the light wires that were shaking suddenly stopped, as if they had never moved. The light and shadow of the shaking objects in the room also returned to normal.
"Tongtong? Tongtong, open the door." A female voice sounded. She sounded like she was in her forties.
The girl looked away from the music box, slowly raised her head, and looked at the door.
The room she was in at the moment was not a bedroom, but a separate room. It seemed that she was the only one in this room.
The person knocking on the door was her mother Huang Guiping.
The girl stood up, looking extremely thin, as if caused by long-term malnutrition, walked to the door and opened the door.
"Mom." She called, turned around and sat down at the square table again.
Huang Guiping walked in with a bowl of steaming noodles and said: "It's just cooked, while it's still hot..."
Before he finished speaking, his eyes had already spotted an untouched bowl of food placed on the square table, not far from the music box.
Huang Guiping sighed softly, "Why didn't you eat again?"
"I'm not hungry." Yao Tong spoke calmly and in a very low voice. If the room hadn't been so quiet, you wouldn't have been able to hear what she was saying.
Huang Guiping lowered her eyes and saw her daughter's bare feet, without slippers. Her thin feet were just stepping on the cold floor. Her feet seemed to be turning blue from the cold.
She put the bowl of noodles on the square table distressedly, turned around and looked around, and found that there were no slippers in the living room, and then walked towards the bedroom.
When she just walked to the door of the bedroom, looking at the dark space without turning on the lights, Huang Guiping suddenly paused and became a little hesitant.
The shadows and fears in her heart rose at this moment, and she took two steps forward again. She always felt that there was a person standing in the darkness of the bedroom, staring at her.
Standing at the door, she reached out and touched the light switch on the wall at the door. Huang Guiping quickly pressed the switch. The darkness in the bedroom disappeared and the light came on, but the light was still dim.
Huang Guiping still didn't rush in, but carefully looked at the corners of the bedroom, the other side of the bed, the side of the wardrobe, whether there were any bulges in the curtains, and then the back of the bedroom door.
After looking at everything, she finally fixed her eyes on a pair of slippers placed under the bed.
Huang Guiping walked in quickly, bent down and grabbed her slippers. Huang Guiping was still afraid that there was something in the bedroom, so she turned around and walked out of the living room without even turning off the light.
Shortly after she took away the pair of slippers from under the bed, there was suddenly a very slight rustling sound from under the bed, which would not be heard at all if not in the bedroom.
At this time, a dark figure was lying under the bed, with his legs straightened and his hands vertical, like a mummy, motionless in an extremely weird posture, with his head looking in the direction of the bedroom door.
After taking out the slippers, Huang Guiping immediately squatted down and put them on her daughter, while asking: "Did you take your medicine on time today?"
Yao Tong nodded.
Huang Guiping straightened up and pointed to the meal that had been delivered earlier, "Then why don't you eat? The medicine must be taken half an hour after a meal. You cannot take the medicine on an empty stomach like this."
Yao Tong suddenly remembered something, and his face became a little confused. He raised his head and looked at Huang Guiping, "Mom, I don't seem to have taken any medicine."
"Ah!" Huang Guiping suddenly looked around her subconsciously, and the feeling of palpitations and panic she felt just now reappeared.
She hurriedly said: "Eat two bites of noodles quickly, and I will bring you the medicine. Eat quickly!"
Yao Tong reached out and grabbed the chopsticks, but it seemed that her fingers had no strength. The chopsticks fell on the table. She did not pick them up. Instead, she grabbed a few noodles from the bowl with her hands and stuffed them into her mouth.
At the same time, her eyes were moving around, as if the room had become unsafe.
By the time Yao Tong stuffed the noodles into his mouth for the second time, Huang Guiping had already poured a glass of water and brought over two white tablets.
"The time has passed. Take the medicine first, then eat."
Yao Tong raised his head and looked at her in surprise, "Don't you take it half an hour after a meal?"
"It's too late, you haven't taken any medicine today! Eat quickly, eat before you eat." Huang Guiping urged, and then said: "Why did you catch it with your hands? There are chopsticks here!"
Yao Tong didn't say anything. He grabbed the pills with his oil-stained hands and shook his head slightly at the same time, as if he wanted to get rid of an unpleasant thought and not want to think about it anymore.
"What are you thinking about?" Huang Guiping was shocked when she saw this, "Tongtong, what are you thinking about?"
"Under the bed..." Yao Tong's voice became even smaller at this time, and he said in a weak voice: "Is there someone under the bed?"
After saying this, she smiled self-deprecatingly, showing her yellow teeth, and put two pills into her mouth.
Huang Guiping was even more shocked. She immediately looked towards the bedroom where the lights were not turned off. From her side, she could see the position of the bed in the bedroom. She saw a figure who seemed to be under the bed. He had climbed to the edge of the bed and stretched out a dark hand. hands, trying to crawl out.
The arm looked like it was completely burnt. It was extremely stiff and had no flexibility at all. Even the five fingers could not be seen clearly, as if they had been condensed into a lump.
Passing the water cup over, Huang Guiping said: "Drink the water quickly and swallow the medicine."
Seeing Yao Tong's throat moving after taking a sip of water, Huang Guiping immediately turned around and walked towards the door of the living room, not even daring to look at the dark figure crawling out of the bedroom.
As he walked, he said: "Take the medicine and eat the noodles quickly. Just put the bowl on the table. Mom will come to clean it up tomorrow morning."
When he came to the living room door, he opened the door and heard Yao Tong behind him say: "By the way, there is a sister who came to play with me."
The moment the living room door opened, Huang Guiping's body trembled suddenly, with a look of horror on her face. She covered her mouth with her hand and stood there without daring to move.
I saw a girl standing outside the door wearing a black dress who looked almost the same as Yao Tong. This girl's hair was also shawl and greasy. The dress she was wearing was exactly the same as Yao Tong except for the color.
She lowered her head and stood at the door. After the door was opened, she immediately stepped in.
Huang Guiping was so frightened that she quickly ran away and did not dare to get close to her.
"Hehe..." When the girl passed by Huang Guiping, she seemed to laugh, but she didn't seem to.
Huang Guiping didn't dare to turn her head and look again, so she rushed out of the room and closed the door.
She knew very well that after her daughter took the medicine, she would have to wait for a while for the medicine to take effect. So it was only a matter of time before the dark shadow under the bed and the girl in the black dress I saw just now disappeared.
With his heart beating like a drum, he quickly returned to the home next door. It turned out that where Huang Guiping lived was only separated from Yao Tong by a wall.
At this moment, sitting on the sofa at home, a middle-aged man was smoking a cigarette without saying a word. He didn't even look up after Huang Guiping came in.
"Yao Jie, Tongtong forgot to take his medicine just now." Huang Guiping said immediately after entering the room.
"Ah!" Yao Jie raised his head and stared at her, "Did something happen?"
Huang Guiping nodded, sat down, and said with lingering fear: "I asked her to take the medicine before she ran out quickly. I was scared to death!"
Yao Jie put the cigarette butt in the ashtray, walked to the wall, and lay there listening to what was going on next door.
Because this house is old, the sound insulation effect is not very good. Sometimes they will hear Yao Tong talking or laughing here, but if the movement is slightly louder, they can hear it.
The house next door where Yao Tong now lives was left by Yao Jie's father, Yao Tong's grandfather. The father and son were originally in the same unit, so they split two houses in this building.
After Grandpa Yao Tong passed away, the house next door belonged to Yao Jie's family.
Later, when Yao Tong became ill and his behavior became more and more strange, the couple couldn't stand it anymore and discussed it with Yao Tong, and they decided to live separately.
At first, the family sought medical treatment everywhere, including psychiatrists, private psychological clinics, brain hospitals, etc. They all concluded that Yao Tong had schizophrenia, but there was no treatment at all.
Not only was the treatment ineffective, but Yao Tong's condition began to worsen. Later, he finally found a pill called octonumab receptor. As long as he took it, Yao Tong could stay free of illness for about a day.
Then things evolved into what they are now.
Because Yao Tong's surrounding environment would also appear abnormal after he became ill, the couple also considered asking a monk or Taoist priest to perform rituals.
However, the result of the practice was similar to that of seeking medical treatment before. It was useless. On the contrary, it would further stimulate Yao Tong's nerves, causing her to have more and uncontrollable thoughts.
So Yao Jie and Huang Guiping stopped doing things that irritated her and just let Yao Tong stay quietly, but they never thought of reporting it to the sheriff.
After all, so far, the impact of Yao Tong's illness has not been large. It is only limited to his home, and outsiders are unaware of it, and it has never caused danger to other people.
