In an instant, a faint panic flashed across Bai Yingzhi's face.
But she concealed it very well, and hurriedly hid the knife-like weapon in her hand again in her bag.
Hei Cha, who had been prepared to violently solve it, was suddenly stunned. He turned his eyes to the source of the sound and found that an eight or nine-year-old boy was standing in the empty room at some point.
The boy's facial features are almost perfect, his face is pale and not like a living person, leaning against the blank wall under the clock, like a porcelain doll that shatters when touched.
Obviously, the boy is the Yu Yu in the photo.
"Mom, can I invite my brother to play with me in the room?" Xiao Youyu's voice sounded again.
Although Chi Nan could not see, he could clearly perceive the 'sight' falling on his face. This subtle feeling of being stared at seemed to transcend vision and existed in a way he did not know.
Bai Yingzhi put a smile on her face again, walked into the bedroom in front of the guests, squatted in front of Xiao Youyu and said softly, "Of course, your father and I are usually busy, so it's good to have someone to play with you. "
"It's just..." Bai Yingzhi paused, and turned to Chi Nan's eyes, turning cold, "This brother also has 'work' to be busy with, you pester him to play, if you delay his time, it will be bad if he can't finish his work. already."
Chi Nan said politely, "Don't delay, I like young master very much."
Xiao Youyu also tilted his head and curled the corners of his lips: "I like brother too."
He is obviously a beautiful little boy like an angel, and his smile can be called cute, but for some reason, the moment Hei Cha sees Xiao You's smile, a layer of goosebumps arose on his body.
Bai Yingzhi's face was even more ugly, and she turned to Chi Nan with a stiff smile on her face: "That's great, it's been a long, long time, and I haven't met a guest that You Yu likes."
She said yes, but her tone was a bright warning.
Chi Nan didn't care: "My honor."
Bai Yingzhi's smile disappeared for two seconds.
"Mom, can you leave this brother with me for a while longer?"
Saying that, Xiao Youyu walked over, as if he wanted to hold Chi Nan's hand, but for some reason he gave up and put his hand behind him.
Bai Yingzhi quickly swept towards the carpet where the concoction was splattered from the corner of her eye, and quickly looked back. After thinking for half a minute, she agreed: "You are only allowed to play for five minutes, you should rest later."
Xiao Youyu nodded obediently: "Okay."
Then he raised his head: "Brother, can you play with me for a while?"
Black Tea immediately stopped: "Chi Nan, don't..."
Chi Nan nodded: "Of course."
Black tea: "… "
Chi Nan shook his head at him, Hei Cha frowned, and said in a low voice, "I don't even know what this young master is now, you are too dangerous!"
"It doesn't matter, I know it in my heart, isn't this still your talisman?" Chi Nan in turn comforted the dark tea.
Hei Cha scratched his head in embarrassment: "You are... too easy to trust people. If I sold you, you wouldn't even know!"
Chi Nan was amused, and the corresponding face became more gentle: "I can just take advantage of these five minutes to ask him what the words at the bottom of the bowl mean, and the time shown on the clock."
Hei Cha knew that he couldn't beat Chi Nan, so he nodded worriedly: "Then be careful yourself, I'll be watching outside the door."
"Okay." Chi Nan agreed.
In an instant, everyone around disappeared, the door closed, and only Chi Nan and You Yu were left in the room.
Xiao Youyu then pulled his hand. As expected, two tears rolled from the corner of Chi Nan's eyes.
And he didn't run away.
"Brother, I like the way you cry." Xiao Youyu said with a smile.
Chi Nan: "…"
He wiped his tears and crouched down, making it easier for Xiao Youyu to talk to him.
"Thank you for helping me get rid of the medicine," Xiao Youyu continued, "but Bai Yingzhi saw your actions through the camera, and you might have a hard time at night."
Chi Nan noticed that Xiao Youyu called Bai Yingzhi by her name.
Chi Nan: "It's okay, I should be able to handle it."
Xiao Youyu asked curiously, "How do you know that I hate that medicine?"
Chi Nan said truthfully, "I dreamed of it."
Xiao Youyu's expression was a little subtle: "Then why are you willing to help me pour out the medicine? Aren't you afraid of offending Bai Yingzhi?"
Chi Nan thought for a moment: "When you came here, you helped me lead the way, which is considered a favor."
"That's it?" Xiao Youyu was obviously not convinced.
Chi Nan is also frank: "It's also to find clues, and also, I think this is a plot point to gain favor."
"Good luck," Xiao Youyu smiled with satisfaction: "The monitor in my room doesn't have a recording function. What clues do you want to know? I know, and I will tell you according to my mood."
"What do the words at the bottom of the bowl mean?" Chi Nan asked directly.
Xiao Youyu: "It literally means."
Chi Nan: "Why did she kill you?"
Xiao Youyu shrugged: "I don't know, it's just my intuition, believe it or not, you have to figure out the clues."
Chi Nan asked again, "What does 12:20 on the clock mean?"
Xiao Youyu was silent for a moment, then smiled casually: "Maybe the clock is broken, or maybe time has stopped, who knows?"
Time has stopped.
Chi Nan pondered this sentence for a moment, and suddenly had a clue.
Only for the dead, time will stop at the moment of death...
"You seem to have guessed it. Is there anything else you want to ask? Time is running out."
"Let me tell my brother another secret. There is no surveillance in my mother's bedroom. If you want to play hide and seek, you'd better hide there."
This sentence was full of hints, and Chi Nan's eyelids jumped.
"Brother, is there anything else you want to know?"
"What did you mean when you said you know my face last time?" Chi Nan asked.
The atmosphere was cold for a few seconds, and Xiao Youyu suddenly raised his hand to touch the outline of Chi Nan's facial features, his smile was a bit playful: "You and I look very similar, right?"
Almost at the same moment, the touch on Chi Nan's face dissipated, and Xiao Youyu disappeared from the room again.
At the same time, the closed door opened, and Hei Cha stood outside the door and was startled: "Chi Nan? Are you all right? Why is the young master gone again?"
"It's time." Chi Nan's tone was a little lost, and he walked out of the door.
"Hey wait, why are you crying? That young master bullied you?" Hei Cha found the tears that were not completely dry on his face.
Chi Nan looked slightly stiff, wiped the tears again, and said softly, "No."
The two turned down the stairs, and the rest of the teammates stayed in the living room nervously and curiously—
"How? Did you find any useful clues?"
"I saw Bai Yingzhi passed by just now, and thought you guys..."
"It's so scary, no matter what we call you can't seem to hear..."
Cheng Xu's eyes swept over the two for a moment: "Are you alright?"
"Of course it's fine, look, we have found a major clue." Black Tea put the bowl in front of everyone, and reflected the four words on the bottom of the bowl to the light.
The simple words "Mom killed me" sent chills down the spine.
"Is there any ambiguity in this sentence? Is it "Mom is going to kill me" or "Ask my mother to kill me"..."
"I think it's the first meaning, who would let their mother kill themselves when they are idle?"
"It's hard to say. What if the young master knew that he was haunted by evil spirits and was afraid that his family would suffer, so he issued a warning that Bai Yingzhi would kill him?"
"It makes sense for you to say that, and it fits the theme of this time very well."
"If that's the case, do you really want us to kill that child?" Nanlu asked the last question. Seeing everyone looking over, she bit her lip timidly, "Is it a bit too cruel?"
An Ran has always disliked this weak little artist in a 38-line outfit, and her tone was a little impatient: "In a nightmare world, with precarious situations, what qualifications do you have to talk about cruelty?"
Nanlu pouted and pouted: "That's what I said, but I'm a newcomer and I can't..."
Hei Cha turned to Chi Nan: "You talked to the young master later, what do you think?"
Chi Nan said directly, "I think the young master should be protected."
Wei Bald laughed coldly: "Oh, here it is again."
Hei Cha glared at him and asked Chi Nan, "What did the young master say?"
Chi Nan: "What he meant literally should be people's first reaction, the meaning of 'mom is going to kill me', he led us to his house, I think it was a distress signal. "
"It seems to make sense..." Black Tea scratched his head, very tangled.
Cheng Xu: "You mean, in turn, we should kill Bai Yingzhi."
After a moment of silence, Chi Nan nodded.
"This…"
Just when everyone was in a tangle, Chi Nan suddenly tore off the tablecloth on the coffee table without warning, and the cups and plates on the tablecloth scattered on the ground, and the crisp sound of shattering porcelain pierced the dead silence of the house.
"Chi Nan, what are you doing... Hey...!" Before the black tea could step forward to stop him, Chi Nan had already smashed the engraved medicine bowl to the ground. in.
"Are you crazy, little blind man!" Wei Bald almost jumped up from the sofa when he saw that the clue was destroyed.
Chi Nan didn't take it seriously: "Anyway, we already know what to do with the medicine bowl? It's even worse to be caught by Bai Yingzhi."
Hei Cha suddenly realized, and patted his forehead with hindsight: "Ah yes, I almost didn't expect it."
"But if there was surveillance in the young master's room, Bai Yingzhi would have known what you did..." Nanlu said.
"But she doesn't know the words at the bottom of the bowl." Chi Nan explained.
Slightly bald and sneered: "Destroy the clues, are you protecting that young master?"
Chi Nan bluntly said, "That's right."
Slightly bald: "… "
"Okay, okay, let's hurry up and look for clues again, it's going to be dark again soon..." Cheng Xu saw the tense atmosphere and quickly got to the business.
As time passed, Bai Yingzhi ate dinner with her husband and the 'guests'. She was wearing a sapphire blue evening dress.
"Where's the young master?" Chi Nan asked Bai Yingzhi.
Bai Yingzhi paused while drinking the soup: "You Yu is not used to eating with outsiders."
Then she looked at Chi Nan coldly: "This guest, you seem to have a good relationship with You Yu."
Chi Nan nodded: "The young master is very cute."
"Thank you for the compliment," Bai Yingzhi put down the spoon in her hand, "but I still advise you, and everyone here..."
Bai Yingzhi folded her hands and looked at everyone elegantly, "Don't talk to my son easily, remember."
After speaking, she threw down the table of guests, turned and left.
Seems to be disappointed by Chi Nan's question.
Everyone had lingering fears because Bai Yingzhi was annoyed, only Chi Nan and Black Tea enjoyed themselves.
Hei Cha felt that he was infected by the thick nerves of the little blind man, and now he can't feel any fear at all...
Soon, the bell struck 12 o'clock.
Bai Yingzhi put on a white evening dress and went downstairs.
"Our audition is still held at 2 o'clock every night. I hope everyone can be punctual. I don't like people who are late."
Bai Yingzhi repeated what she said yesterday, sitting in the same position as yesterday, even the curvature of her smile was exactly the same as yesterday.
Nanlu said tremblingly: "That... we haven't got the script today..."
Bai Yingzhi tapped her finger on the table: "The script is the same as yesterday."
Cheng Xu was confused: "Don't you mean that the scripts and roles of the auditions are different every day?"
"You'll know when you open it." Bai Yingzhi leaned back with her feet raised, and looked at everyone with the eyes of watching a play.
Everyone gasped, and slowly opened the script with their hands that trembled even more than last night...
"Fuck!!"
When Black Tea saw the big characters on the script, he was so frightened that he threw the script on the table.
Everyone was taken aback and looked over in horror, only Chi Nan asked concerned: "What role?"
Hei Cha covered her face scoldingly, and said with a whimper, "Playing the role: a murderer."
Everyone: "...!"
The script was just thrown in front of Cheng Xu, he picked up the script and opened it, his face changed suddenly: "Brackets, the first crime scene can be chosen by yourself, the modus operandi can be improvised, the bloodier the better, please be careful to keep the body..."
Everyone was silent, and they all worried about one thing...
If someone is going to play the murderer, then there must be the role of the victim...that is to say...
"How do you choose the actors for the show?" Chi Nan was the first to break the terrifying silence and asked calmly.
Bai Yingzhi tapped her fingers on the table: "I need two 'guests' to audition tonight, and the other is among you."
Everyone's faces turned blue with fear...
Bai Yingzhi continued to smile and said, "I believe that the victim has already obtained the script."
No one dared to make a sound, and they all looked at the script in each other's hands with a subtle expression.
Bai Yingzhi: "Reminder again, I hope everyone must read the script thoroughly and do their best to play their own plot and roles, otherwise..."
She smiled and said softly, "Good night."
