“Big sister, come play with us…”
Pale faces stood at the bedside, deep eye sockets pitch black, dark red blood trickling out.
“Huh”
Jia Xinyue suddenly woke up from a nightmare, drenched in cold sweat.
She turned her head to look outside, the night was still deep, but all she could think about now was the pale faces of those children, she definitely couldn’t fall asleep.
It was very strange.
She had intended to tough it out through the night, but drowsiness came in waves like a tide, her eyelids couldn’t stay open no matter what.
She sighed.
Jia Xinyue prepared to get up and light the oil lamp.
“Boom, boom”
Suddenly, the knocking on the door resounded.
Jia Xinyue was startled, she quickly looked towards the direction of the door, but couldn’t see anyone.
“Who, who is there?”
She asked in a trembling voice.
Jia Xinyue was terrified, she tightly wrapped herself in the blanket, her face pale, her heart beating violently, cold sweat flowing continuously.
Boom.
Boom…
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang…..
It seemed that because she didn’t open the door, the knocking gradually became impatient and urgent.
As if someone was fiercely banging with their body.
Suddenly, the door-knocking ceased abruptly.
Through the gap in the blanket, Jia Xinyue sneaked a peek, the door was still closed properly, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Bang!
A strange sound suddenly rang out.
Jia Xinyue hurriedly followed the sound, her whole person suddenly stunned.
Through the open window, a ray of moonlight slanted in, cold and lonely.
How, how could it be!?
When was the window opened….she distinctly remembered closing it securely before nightfall!
Bang!
The sound came again.
Guided by the faint moonlight, Jia Xinyue faintly saw a mass of dark hair popping out on the windowsill, but it quickly receded.
“Someone is jumping there….”
A huge fear suddenly spread all over her body.
It’s those children!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The jumping sounds continued, with one mass of hair after another emerging on the windowsill.
They seemed to be jumping higher and higher, starting with just hair, quickly becoming half a forehead, and finally the entire head was exposed, staring straight into the room.
Jia Xinyue dare not look.
With her eyes tightly closed, she wrapped herself tightly in the blanket, as if this could protect her.
Suddenly, the sounds disappeared.
Jia Xinyue gathered her courage, and with her eyes slightly open, she looked towards the direction of the window.
Are they gone?
Jia Xinyue swallowed a mouthful of saliva, opened a small corner of the blanket again, and suddenly, in the corner of her eye, she saw next to the bed, at some point, an additional row of bare little feet.
In an instant.
The color drained from her face, her mouth opened, wanting to scream for help, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something, unable to make a sound.
She couldn’t shout no matter how hard she tried.
“Help…..”
Jia Xinyue desperately squeezed out a bit of sound.
Boom!!
A violent force instantly shattered the door into countless pieces and flew off.
The room door was instantaneously shattered into countless pieces flying everywhere.
A slender figure stood outside, looking over coldly. The moonlight elongated his figure, casting a vague shadow.
“So many little ghosts!?”
Zhang Baoyi had already rushed in, his blood boiling, a fierce expression on his face as he wielded two large knives, fiercely chopping towards the bed.
A sharp whistling sound suddenly exploded.
A group of ghostly creatures scattered and fled shrieking, while Zhang Baoyi burst through the window in pursuit.
“Bang”
Lin Yuan raised his hand to grab one of the little ghosts who rushed towards him in a panic, and without even looking, he directly crushed it.
“Miss Jia, are you okay?”
He casually walked into the room and asked.
“I-I’m fine…”
Jia Xinyue, still in shock, her face pale, her trembling body gradually calming down, showed a sense of relief after surviving a disaster: “Thank you, thank you, Young Master Lin! If it weren’t for your timely arrival, I would have…”
“A small favor.”
Lin Yuan smiled slightly.
At this moment.
Zhang Baoyi walked briskly from outside holding two knives, and said in a deep voice, “Several ran away.”
Lin Yuan nodded casually and looked at Jia Xinyue, “Miss Jia, have you encountered such a situation before?”
“I don’t know.”
Jia Xinyue let out a sigh of relief, a weak smile on her face, her shaking body gradually calming down, and she expressed her gratitude after surviving the ordeal: “Thank you, Young Master Lin! It was the first time I encountered such a situation in reality, although I had only seen these children in my nightmares before… But, maybe those missing people from the villa before…”
Before she finished speaking.
Zhang Baoyi suddenly interrupted, glaring at her with a fierce look in his eyes, and said sternly:
“Wait! Many people are missing from the villa? What about the nightmares you mentioned, why didn’t you mention them in the letter?”
Jia Xinyue was initially startled.
But after hearing his words, she was stunned, and said in confusion, “How could that be, I intentionally mentioned these things multiple times in the letter… ”
Swish!
Zhang Baoyi raised his hand and took out a piece of paper, unfolding it coldly, “Is this the letter you wrote?”
Jia Xinyue carefully looked at it.
The crescent moon symbol in the lower right corner indicated it was her personal stationery, and the handwriting also had a strong personal style.
It couldn’t be faked.
There were also a few words that were peculiar to her, very subtle, which no one else could imitate!
However, to Jia Xinyue’s horror…
The letter only mentioned seeing unidentified ghostly shadows at night and requested the Whale Gang to send someone to investigate during their leisure time.
There was not a single mention of the dead or missing people from the villa!
“No, this can’t be!!”
Fine beads of cold sweat appeared on Jia Xinyue’s forehead, her pupils trembling slightly, her whole body feeling cold:
“I didn’t write this letter! I absolutely did not write such a letter!! But… but the handwriting is indeed mine… who altered my letter?”
She suddenly realized.
No wonder!
No wonder the Whale Gang thought the Jia Family villa was just a normal haunting incident.
What they saw and what she wrote in the letter were not the same from beginning to end!
As she spoke, Zhang Baoyi also felt a chill down his spine and a sense of coldness.
He subconsciously looked at Lin Yuan beside him.
