Shen Xing has actually made some guesses about the fact that the strange pupils often fail to work or cannot detect abnormalities.
This actually has less to do with whether one's own strange pupils can work or not, and more to do with the characteristics of the anomaly itself.
For example, if an abnormal characteristic is always present, the characteristic will appear no matter when you observe it. At this time, the abnormal pupils can easily see and identify that it is an abnormality.
And if a certain abnormal characteristic does not appear all the time, but appears under certain circumstances and conditions, or under its own wishes, there is no way to detect the abnormal pupil at this time.
Because the abnormality discovered by the different eyes is based on the reveal of the other party's characteristics.
Just like Yao Tong, she is just a schizophrenic patient in normal times. Her darkness is abnormal and stays in the dream. At this time, the abnormal eyes cannot be discovered.
As for the anomaly like the fake Hong Bin, this guy is an imitator of the real Hong Bin, and his existence is in the form of abnormal characteristics, so if you use the special pupil to observe, you can see it accurately.
So now, although Shen Xing glanced at the boy puppet with his strange eyes and saw no red aura, this only meant that there was nothing suspicious about the current puppet, but it was not the final result.
After closing the strange pupils, Shen Xing went to Feifei's bedroom and closed her door. Then he entered his own bedroom and closed the door, but it was not locked.
In this way, no matter whether there is something wrong with the boy puppet, I can feel at ease in my heart.
…
Same night.
Ten minutes past three in the morning.
In the duplex house on the 37th floor of Yongjian Building, the whole house was quiet and dark. Only some faint light came from the window in the living room.
During the day, after the workers delivered the wooden bed customized by Xia Hongyu, Xia Hongyu opened the door of the storage room and checked the dummy. She found that there was nothing strange and the surface of the dummy had not been bitten by golden retrievers. , so she asked the workers to carry the dummy to her showroom on the second floor.
In this exquisite and compact showroom, there are not only miniature versions of various medical devices for sale, but also various medical books and some of my favorite and collected items.
The eye-pupil wood carving I bought last time at Shen Xing’s store is placed among them.
As for the wooden sculpture of the man facing the wall that I just brought back, it was not put in because it was left outside for ventilation. Instead, it was still placed at the window of the living room on the first floor.
The last incident where the dummy was moved was probably caused by the golden retriever, as the sheriff later determined, because canine marks were found on the dummy's clothes.
Although the clothes were not torn and the dummy's skin was not bitten, the saliva on the dummy's face and the canine teeth on the surface of the clothes all showed that the golden retriever had indeed dragged the dummy.
But in the end, Xia Hongyu said that she saw the dummy moving inward at the door of the storage room, but the golden retriever was behind her at that time. Later analysis should indicate that the dummy did not completely fall to the ground at that time? A part of it was hung on the door. Above? And when Xia Hongyu saw it, the hanging part happened to fall off, causing it to move a little further into the door.
Later, the sheriff even checked the dummy itself and found nothing unusual.
Despite this, Xia Hongyu still closed the storage room door. It wasn't until the workers delivered the wooden beds they ordered and put them in the showroom that she opened the storage room.
I guess it was because I was paranoid, so two workers laid the dummy flat on the wooden bed? One of them was curious and asked a few more questions, and Xia Hongyu also patiently explained.
After dinner, she went to the showroom, opened an anatomy book, took out some internal organs from the dummy, and studied them carefully.
This feeling reminded her of her early days in medical school.
To be honest, Xia Hongyu herself is actually quite courageous. When she first practiced her courage, she ordered barbecued pork rice with her classmates outside the dissecting room. The smell of formalin mixed with barbecued pork rice was what she now feels. They are all still fresh in my memory.
After studying for more than an hour, she put all the internal organs back intact and covered them with the skin on the dummy's belly.
But this time, Xia Hongyu didn't put anything on the dummy's body, and just let him lie upright on the wooden bed. It was obvious that it was a dummy at a glance, so that there would be no other thoughts about him.
After exercising, she went to bed early to rest and prepare for a business trip to Heshan City with people from the company tomorrow.
This time, I slept until 3:10 in the morning and suddenly woke up.
There was a slight knocking sound coming from the next door, intermittent, and it was this sound that woke Xia Hongyu up.
After she regained consciousness, she was slightly stunned, because the next door to her bedroom was the showroom, and the intermittent knocking sound at this moment came from the showroom.
Not only that, Xia Hongyu also heard Ruoyouruowu's whimpering sound. This sound came from the golden retriever, and that guy often made this sound.
When I came out of the showroom, although I closed the door, I didn't lock it, so the golden retriever could still open it.
Xia Hongyu sat up from the bed angrily, scratched her hair that was a little messy from sleeping, put on her slippers and got out of bed.
Just as I was about to turn on the bedside lamp, I suddenly heard a noise coming from the corridor outside the bedroom, as if someone was walking, but it didn't sound like it if I heard it carefully.
She did not turn on the light, but immediately came to the closed bedroom door. Through the gap under the door, she could see that the sensor light outside the corridor was on at the moment.
Xia Hongyu did not open the bedroom door for the time being, but squatted down and looked at the gap under the bedroom door.
At this time, the noise appeared again, a bit like footsteps, and a bit like a dragging sound. In short, it was impossible to distinguish carefully.
Xia Hongyu's heart was beating for no reason, and goosebumps appeared on her skin. She made no sound or made any other movements, just staring at the corridor light coming from the gap under the door.
After a while, the sound disappeared, and the sensor light outside the corridor quickly went out and stopped lighting up.
Xia Hongyu could still feel her heart beating faster. It took her a while to calm down, slowly stood up, walked back to the bedside table, took out the anti-wolf stun device from it, and held it in her hand.
Then he put his cell phone into his pajamas pocket, then turned around and came to the bedroom door again, opened the door and walked out.
She didn't notice that since she got up, the intermittent knocking sound next door had stopped.
The sensor light outside the corridor immediately turned on. Xia Hongyu carefully looked around the corridor and saw nothing unusual.
She squeezed the anti-wolf stun device tightly in her hand and glanced at the showroom door next door. Sure enough, it was open, but there was no light inside at the moment, and she couldn't see clearly what was going on in the hazy darkness.
She stood at the door of the showroom, wanting to call "Maomao", but hesitated for a moment, but still didn't make a sound.
He turned around and glanced in the direction of the stairs leading to the first floor. It was quiet there, and he didn't hear any movement downstairs.
Withdrawing her gaze and looking at the showroom room in front of her again, Xia Hongyu reached in and turned on the light in the room.
The wooden bed placed in the middle of the showroom was empty at the moment, and the dummy was gone again!
At this time, Xia Hongyu carefully recalled the strange sound she heard coming from the corridor just now. It didn't sound like footsteps, but it should be the sound of something dragging.
Thinking about it this way, could it be possible that the golden retriever grabbed the clothes in its mouth and dragged the dummy away again?
It seemed that he had made a mistake in buying this dummy. The golden retriever seemed to be more interested in this guy than he was in it.
I looked carefully in the showroom and found no trace of the dummy. It must have been dragged out just now, or it may have gone downstairs.
Thinking of this, Xia Hongyu felt speechless. She came to the stairs and looked down. It was dark below and she couldn't see clearly. It was even darker below the stairs.
She turned on the light at the top of the stairs and walked all the way down. She didn't see the shadow of the dummy. She looked down at the bottom of the stairs on the first floor and heard a meow from the cattery.
Usually when the big girl hears someone coming downstairs, she will bark to say hello or remind the person coming downstairs that she is in the nest now.
And when I looked at the golden retriever's kennel, half of its golden tail was exposed. It was obvious that the golden retriever was also in the kennel.
The cat and the dog were both in their own nests. Did the Golden Retriever drag the dummy down so quickly and throw it somewhere?
Could it be that this guy didn't go upstairs at all? impossible.
Xia Hongyu turned on the light in the living room and glanced at the ground in the direction of the kitchen and living room doors, but saw nothing.
When she turned around and faced the direction of the sofa and the window, she was suddenly stunned, her eyes widened and she stared ahead.
I saw the dummy with his back to me, standing on one side of the sofa, facing the window, as if he was watching the night scene outside the window.
This scene startled Xia Hongyu, and her eyes immediately focused on the dummy's legs.
This dummy's legs also use a design with leg bone support, but the leg bones are imitations and not as hard as expected, but if it is just to support your own body, it won't be a big problem.
After reacting, Xia Hongyu immediately looked around to see if there was anyone hiding around the dummy, otherwise the dummy would not be able to stand up on its own.
She didn't see anything. Xia Hongyu already felt her scalp numb. She stared straight at the back of the dummy, not daring to make a sound. She just felt that the dummy seemed to be breathing, and its body was rising and falling slightly. She didn't know what was happening. My own illusion, or a real scene.
Now she is unable to think normally.
At this time, Da Niu and Maomao were already in their kennels. It was normal for Da Niu not to show up, but usually if Xia Hongyu came to the first floor at this time, the golden retriever would not still be in the kennel, but would have been there long ago. He ran out and shook his head.
Now it seems that it is indeed abnormal.
Xia Hongyu held the anti-wolf stun device firmly in her hand. Because of her nervousness, she unconsciously exerted a little force on her fingers and pressed the button of the stun device, causing a crackling sound of electric shock.
She shivered with fright. She no longer had the courage to stay in the living room, let alone the standing dummy. She suddenly turned around and ran up the stairs quickly.
She ran a little harder and the slipper on her right foot flew down the stairs. Not caring about anything, Xia Hongyu quickly returned to the bedroom, slammed the door, quickly locked the door, and held the door tightly with her back uneasily. Resist it, for fear that someone will open it.
Panting, Xia Hongyu felt a layer of cold sweat forming on her back, forehead, and palms. Her heartbeat was speeding up, her breathing was short, and she could no longer think normally.
After a while, I suddenly started to worry about the cats and dogs still in the nest.
If the dummy could move, would it hurt them?
Not long after this idea came up, a sound of walking sounded at the stairwell of the second floor, and someone came upstairs.
Xia Hongyu heard this sound very clearly because she focused all her attention outside. From far to near, the footsteps were very slow, but they kept walking, gradually approaching this direction.
At this time, her heart was in her throat, she felt difficulty breathing, and it seemed that her heart was no longer beating.
These were human footsteps, not dogs, not from any animal, but indeed people walking!
The footsteps did not stop. When they passed the bedroom door, they walked straight over and kept sounding at the end of the corridor. There was another bedroom in that direction, but it was used as a guest room and no one usually slept in it.
Xia Hongyu hid behind the bedroom door and walked over when she heard the footsteps. She was so frightened that she slowly squatted down, but her back was still pressed against the bedroom door, motionless.
Now she couldn't imagine that the person outside could be anyone other than the dummy.
She could imagine what the dummy looked like when it walked. It had a stiff expression and stiff limbs. It couldn't even bend its feet when it walked. The situation was weird and terrifying.
After the footsteps passed by, it seemed that they would never return.
Xia Hongyu didn't know when she had changed from a squatting position to a sitting position. She sat directly on the floor behind the door with her back against the door. She wanted to take out her mobile phone and call the sheriff.
But he was afraid of encountering the same situation as last time. In fact, he might have hallucinated and the dummy had not moved at all.
"Could it be because of being too tired and stressed out recently?" Xia Hongyu made a random guess.
Otherwise, how could the dummy walk? That's not a ghost! Not a monster!
Her head was in a mess, and she felt dizzy, but she never heard the footsteps outside the corridor again, as if what just happened was really an illusion.
Gradually, Xia Hongyu, who was sitting on the ground with her back against the door, felt confused. She closed her eyes and fell asleep because she slowly relaxed after being frightened.
…
It's getting light.
The melodious alarm on the mobile phone woke Shen Xing from sleep.
Shen Xing stretched his waist, slowly opened his eyes, reached out and turned off the alarm.
After listening carefully, Feifei, who has a biological clock, has usually gotten up by herself and is washing up in the bathroom. You can hear the sound of washing up.
But Shen Xing listened for a moment and heard nothing.
"Is this little girl's biological clock not working?"
Shen Xing pursed his lips and smiled and sat up. He could imagine how busy Feifei was after he went over to wake her up.
After getting up and opening the bedroom door, Shen Xing was stunned and saw that Feifei had already gotten up and was standing in the living room, facing him sideways and facing the direction of the sofa, staring at something without blinking.
He walked out of the bedroom in one step, turned around and saw that the boy puppet who was sitting on the sofa with a pillow covering his head was now standing and facing this direction, almost looking at Feifei.
Feifei seemed to be very calm and did not show any fear, but her voice inevitably revealed fear, and she said: "Uncle Shen, as soon as I came out, I found that he was standing. Did you move last night?" him?"
"No." Shen Xing shook his head.
