Chapter 24: The Devil

"Qingqing, don't say it again!"

Before the young woman could finish speaking, she was stopped by her mother, apparently thinking that this was a family scandal and should not be mentioned to outsiders, even the police.

"Mrs. Xu, if this matter were just an ordinary case, I wouldn't have asked in such detail, and even if you wanted to tell me, we might not have listened. But as I just told you, this case is not unusual, so I ask for your understanding and cooperation. ”

The middle-aged woman snorted coldly after hearing this, but she didn't say anything anymore.

Seeing this, Xia Qi made a continuing gesture to the young woman and motioned for her to continue.

"Grandpa was locked up like this for about a year, and instead of relenting, his irascible personality became more powerful, and he began to smash things in the house, and even hit the door with his head.

And when I saw my father, my two uncles, and even my aunt, I would rush over and beat them, and even if I was stopped, I would yell at them.

Scold them for being unfilial, scold them for not being human, scold them for being brutes, scold them for having no heart.

I didn't know about it when I was in school before, but later I found out that my grandfather was locked up by them, and I felt that my grandfather was very pitiful, so I wanted to go and see him, but my father didn't let me, saying that my grandfather was in danger now, and he had mental problems, and I would hurt me in the past.

I didn't believe it at the time, so I insisted on going, but then I couldn't help it, so I had to promise to go to see my grandfather once.

When my grandfather saw me, he cried and began to complain to me, saying how unfilial they were, and telling me all the things they had done to him this year.

I just thought how could they be like this, and I suddenly felt like they were demons, and I couldn't even believe it was real.

When my grandfather finished complaining to me, he begged me to let him out, and I really wanted to let him out. But after listening to what my grandfather said, I hesitated.

Because my grandfather told me that he would kill my father and uncle when he went out, and that he would dig out their hearts, lock them up, and then torture them as hard as they did with him.

When I saw the resentment on my grandfather's face, I was so frightened that I cried. Daddy they're crazy, and Grandpa is crazy too.

Despite my grandfather's horrible words, I tried to help him escape, but it didn't work, because my dad had already guessed that I would do it, so I was taken straight home.

In those days, I didn't eat or drink, and I made trouble at home for many days, just clamoring to bring my grandfather back.

My dad persuaded me that if it weren't for my grandfather's madness. They wouldn't have done that to him either, and if they hadn't locked Grandpa there, Grandpa would have been sent to a psychiatric hospital, where it would have been even more painful than it is now.

I didn't believe my father, I still insisted, but a few days later, my father really took my grandfather back, but after my grandfather came back, he couldn't move at all, only a pair of eyes were dead. His eyes were filled with resentful hatred.

No matter what I said to my grandfather, he didn't respond. It wasn't long before my grandfather died.

On the day my grandfather died, I heard the baby's cry and my grandfather's laughter all the time, and the sound came and went, and my father could hear it, but it was very unclear. Only I hear best.

Father and his two uncles may also be uneasy, so they called him in and told him to come and have a look. ”

When the young woman said this, she raised her hand and pointed at Li Qiuping.

Xia Qi glanced at the woman, and the woman also looked over at this time. And continued:

"For the next few days, I felt that the house was eerie, and after attending my grandfather's funeral, this terrifying and eerie atmosphere reached its climax.

More than once, I saw a baby with the face of a grandfather crawling slowly past my bed, but when I looked closely, there was nothing in front of me.

Even when I'm playing on the computer, I always hear the sound of babies laughing in the bathroom.

What I remember most clearly is that on the day of my father's accident, I got up early to brush my teeth, but there was a grandfather's sigh outside the door, and when I ran out, I saw a gray-white baby, slowly crawling into my father's bedroom.

Not long after, I heard a scream from my father in the bedroom, and when I pushed the door open and went in, I found that my father was dead.

Then I called the police, and when the police came, I told them what I had experienced in the past few days, but they didn't believe it. Later, my family didn't dare to live there, so I moved here temporarily. ”

After the young woman's words were finished, Xia Qi pinched his chin and thought for a moment, and then heard him ask:

"So have you seen the baby in the last few days, or have you seen anything strange going on in the house?"

"No, it's been quiet these days, nothing has happened." The woman shook her head and said in denial.

"Okay." Xia Qi nodded symbolically and asked again:

"You didn't break into anyone's house at the time, so you can say that you were the only one at the scene, so who do you think killed your father?"

"There were no clues left at the scene, and if I had to say that a murderer came out, then the murderer could only be me. Because I was the only one at home at that time, and I was the only one who had the possibility to commit the crime.

But obviously I'm not going to kill my dad, and I'm not going to call the police after the killing. ”

"You're trying to say that no one killed your dad at all, do you?"

"Well, but no one will believe me, because I will say that the murderer is my grandfather, but this murderer does not exist."

"Actually, I agree with your words, this murderer is your grandfather, or rather, the baby you saw."

Speaking of this, Xia Qi signaled that Liu Yanmin and Li Qiuping could get up and leave, but before leaving, he still didn't forget to remind the woman and said:

"If you think of something again, or if you've been feeling anything strange lately, you can contact me directly."

After Xia Qi left his mobile phone number with the woman, he left with Liu Yanmin and Li Qiuping.

After coming out of the middle-aged woman's house, Liu Yanmin couldn't help but ask Xia Qi:

"Do you think something is asked?"

"Of course, and there are many more."

"Still a lot? But why do I think that the woman didn't say anything, but her father and her two uncles were quite damned, and they treated her grandfather like that, isn't this clearly forcing people to be terrible, and they really deserve their revenge. ”

Xia Qi didn't know what he was thinking, and didn't answer Liu Yanmin's words, but said to himself:

"We've gained a lot here, so let's go find Leng Shen and them to see if they have gained anything on their side." (To be continued.) )
