Xie Chen was startled and quickly rubbed his eyes, but the person sitting in the bathtub was actually his sister who suddenly disappeared in the toilet just now.
There is still water in the bathtub, and because my sister sat in it, the water level in the entire bathtub has risen a lot.
My sister didn't take off her clothes, even her long hair was floating all over the bathtub.
Standing at the door and looking at it like this, it looked like there was a black mat on the bottom of the bathtub.
Xie Chen pursed his lips and walked forward to his sister's side in disbelief.
The little girl blinked her eyes, showed a bright smile, and only raised half of her head above the water, staring at herself intently.
Xie Chen glanced outside and saw that there was no movement of her grandma yet. She was probably really looking for her sister.
Xie Chen slowly put his hand into the bathtub. He was about to lift his sister up from the water, but when he touched his sister's arm, he found that it was soft to the touch.
The touch is no longer like human flesh, but more like a sponge soaked in water. Even if you just touch it with your fingers, it can sink deeply.
Despite this, Xie Chen still helped his sister up and leaned against the edge of the bathtub. At least her whole body was no longer submerged in the water, with only half of her head exposed.
"Sister...is she here again?"
"Sister... you should leave quickly, I don't think I can hold on much longer..."
The sister in the bathtub didn't speak, she just looked at herself with her eyes, but there was still a voice in her consciousness.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Xie Chen looked at her sister in front of her quietly and asked in a low voice,
My sister didn't answer, but she didn't disappear quickly either.
At this moment, there were two more rapid tapping sounds at the door. Someone was already standing at the toilet door knocking, which startled Xie Chen who was focusing on his sister.
But my sister, who was still in the bathtub one second, was already at the door the next moment, staring at the toilet door with bared teeth.
As expected, grandma's voice came from outside the door again.
"My dear grandson, I didn't find the little girl's grandma, but let her throw it away. You, my dear grandson, should stay at home."
Xie Chen looked at his sister in front of him and listened to his grandma's voice outside the door, and his emotions couldn't help but fluctuate.
"My dear grandson, after using the bathroom, come out and watch TV with grandma..."
Xiechen gritted his teeth and shouted angrily.
"My sister is my sister, how can I let her lose it!?"
But when he shouted this sentence loudly, his voice became a bit sharp, completely like a girl's voice.
The grandma standing at the door was completely stunned, and she could feel the undercurrent surging under the calm.
Even the atmosphere in the toilet has undergone a subtle change.
My sister's state has also become particularly nervous, like a cat that is ready to go, and has completely exploded.
Although when I first touched my sister's body, it did feel a little soft, but now when I look at it from behind, it seems a little different.
"My dear grandson, are you staying with that little girl again..."
Grandma's voice was extremely hoarse, but one could hear how much dissatisfaction lay beneath her calm tone.
Xie Chen watched quietly, not knowing how to reply for a moment.
Xie Chen stayed silently while his sister standing in front spoke to him in a unclear voice.
"No need to be afraid... no need... sister... I will protect you... I will..."
As soon as my sister finished saying this, the sound of claws scratching the door came from the bathroom door again. This sound was very clear to me. It was the same sound that I heard before opening the door for my grandma for the first time.
Listening to these voices, my sister's condition seemed to be a little more fraught, and goosebumps appeared on Xiechen's body, feeling particularly uncomfortable being fired.
"My dear grandson, open the door for grandma quickly. You shouldn't stay with that little girl at this time."
Xie Chen gritted his teeth and didn't know how to reply for the time being.
But the door of the toilet in front of me was banging, and the old man outside seemed to be banging it crazily with something.
Xie Chen resisted the urge to feel frightened and began to hurriedly search for any countermeasures in the toilet.
However, he didn't give himself much time. The old man outside had already banged the door hard, and even the door panel was a little deformed.
Xie Chen quickly went up to hold his sister's hand, but her sister was staring at the door. The hair lying on the ground began to spread regularly, and nothing was moved.
Xie Chen was a little at a loss, but his sister said words that reassured him that he didn't have to be afraid.
Before he could react, his sister's hair lying on the ground had begun to spread upwards and soon entangled his feet.
I just wanted to struggle, but I found that these hairs were very tight around me, and it was extremely difficult to even lift my feet.
He just broke away a little bit, but was stopped by his sister.
"Sister...don't move!"
The grandma outside the toilet is still turning the door hard, and the speed and strength are getting faster and faster, leaving no trace of strength.
The toilet door has been severely deformed to the point that it cannot be restored. Unless you want to replace the door, there is no way to restore it to its original shape.
Xie Chen gritted his teeth. At this point, he had no choice but to give it a try.
Xie Chen closed his eyes and thought about the pocket watch in his mind. After trying to use the time stop function, nothing happened around him.
The younger sister, however, still looked like a cat with fried fur, baring her teeth at the grandma who was banging against the door. Her feet were getting entangled in hair more and more, to the point where she could no longer break free.
I felt helpless for a while. I had just thought about the possibility that the pocket watch might no longer be usable, but at least I hadn't tested it yet. I was just mentally prepared.
Now after trying it for a while, it really can no longer be used, and it has completely pronounced its death sentence.
Xie Chen took a breath of cold air.
My sister's hair seems to be able to extend indefinitely. Even if it has wrapped around her entire body, leaving only one head intact, the hair can still keep climbing up.
Xie Chen looked at his sister in front of him, but she suddenly turned her head and looked at him with a smile.
His lips seemed to move, as if he said something.
Unfortunately, his sight was completely blocked by his hair, and he couldn't see clearly what his sister said to him at this last moment.
A loud bang rang in his ears.
I was wrapped in hair and turned into a human chrysalis. I could only hear the sound and couldn't escape at all.
It seems like grandma broke in, right?
In the darkness wrapped in hair, this was the only question left in my mind.
Xiechen took a hard breath, but didn't hear any screams, nor did she hear anything that grandma said after breaking in.
When I was confused for a while, a particularly gentle voice sounded next to my ears.
"Sister, don't worry, I like you and I will always protect you."
This is... my sister's voice.
Xie Chen's consciousness became a little clearer. Compared with the previous voices, his sister's voice no longer had that strange empty sound.
And it seems that there is also a trace of emotion attached to it, and it is no longer as rigid as before, and its speech is intermittent.
Xie Chen was trembling all over, not so much himself, but actually his body.
Even though he was still in the dark, and even though he could feel his hair still entangled, he could clearly feel two lines of tears falling from the corners of his eyes.
It seems because of what my sister said...
So, is the funeral my sister’s funeral?
After these two lines of tears were shed, my consciousness had become particularly blurry, and before I completely lost my ability to think, such a question suddenly popped up in my mind.
A question that I can't get the answer to...
