Chapter 16 The Roof
The wicker doll that Li Taoqi gave him was still placed beside his pillow.

I didn't know what was dripping on his face. Chen Chen rubbed it wet with his fingers, and looked up. The house was leaking everywhere, and there was a black hole the size of a bowl on the ceiling. I don't know if it was accumulated on it. Snow water!
Chen Chen didn't dare to turn off the lights, picked up the wicker doll, and moved the pillow away from the hole as much as possible.

Just about to fall asleep in a daze, suddenly there was a "click", the switch wire moved by itself, and the light went out immediately!
The room darkened quietly again, and the switch rope by the wall rolled up along the wall bit by bit.

Chen Chen felt something strange and woke up suddenly, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't open his eyes, and couldn't control his hands and feet at all.

Nightmare comes just in time!
Not long after, he clearly felt that the cotton covering his body was moving, and was being lifted off a little bit, as if something had got inside.
Chen Chen was drowned in this great fear and was powerless. He could only feel a fluffy thing clinging to the back of his hand, and it was still climbing up his arm!

At this time, the wet thing from the shed that day dripped down again, and it landed on his face in an impartial manner.

As soon as the body was touched, the person recovered instantly, and his eyes suddenly opened!
Panting heavily, Chen Chen lifted the quilt and turned to grab the switch, but he couldn't touch the end of the thread!

The cool wind blew in through the gap of the window, carrying a few pieces of clear snow. Chen Chen tried his best to calm himself down. After a while, he fumbled for the lighter from his pocket. After shaking for a while, the incandescent lamp wire by the wall finally fell down.

After daybreak, Chen Chen didn't even bother to eat breakfast, so he hurried to see Li Taoqi with the wicker doll in his arms. Li Taoqi's reaction seemed to surprise him. Not only did he not admit that his doll was useless, but he also firmly said that it was him. scare yourself.

Although Chen Chen was angry, he didn't know how to refute it. After all, he was still alive and his body was not injured. No one could tell whether the doll was useful or not.

Just touching his arm, recalling the furry touch last night, he still has lingering fears until now.

After some preparations, Big Beard led the two of them to visit Zhou Guanfu's parents. On the way, Big Beard introduced that their family was very popular, but because of Zhou Guanfu's embarrassment, the old couple stared blankly. I had no choice but to move out of the village, and now I live on the edge of the field.

After walking for a few minutes, I saw a small house in a vast paddy field.

It's just that this house is simply stacked with bricks, and the cement plaster can be seen between the bricks, which is very shabby!

In the yard, a hunchbacked old man was clearing the snow outside. Since Zhou Guanfu had an accident, there have been countless policemen and reporters coming and going. When he saw the bearded man leading two strangers, the old man couldn't help but sullen. Put down the snow shovel and turn to leave.

Big Beard had confessed before coming here that the old couple had a bad life these years, if you really don't want to talk about it, don't force anything.

After entering the small courtyard, before Chen Chen could open his mouth, the old man kept pushing his hand out:
"Walk, walk, the murderer has no contact with us for a long time, I don't have his son!"

Seeing this, the bearded man hurriedly explained: "Uncle Zhou, these two friends don't mean anything malicious, he just ate Xiao Zhou's picture out of the ice cream, so he just wanted to."

Before he finished speaking, the old man became even more anxious when he heard it, and picked up the big broom in the yard as if to beat him.

Hearing the shouting and cursing, an old lady came out from the door. Her hair was gray, her eyes were sunken, and her face was not good-looking.

The old lady glanced at everyone, stopped Dad Zhou, and kept waving, signaling them to leave quickly.

This time I came here to try my luck. The children made mistakes and caused harm to the family. The feelings of the old couple are understandable.

Seeing this, Chen Chen just silently put down the fruit gift and didn't provoke him anymore.

The bearded man was rejected at the beginning, and the bearded man thought about it, and then led Chen and Chen to visit some old neighbors of the Zhou family. On the way to meet people, the bearded man complained:

"I said that you two have to be honest when you ask me for help. There are pictures in the ice cream and you want to know about his son. Isn't this kind of nonsense to stimulate the old man?"

Chen Chen pointed to Li Taoqi and said, "I've been unlucky all the time. I suspect it has something to do with Zhou Guanfu's matter. He is a Taoist priest. Ask him if you don't believe me!"

When the bearded man heard this, he looked at Li Taoqi again, his chubby rough face was full of contempt:
"Brother is a Taoist priest?"

Li Tao Qixin is not here, and said worriedly:
"I think that aunt just now is very sick, and she probably won't be able to see the winter next year!"

The bearded man was startled when he heard the words, and sighed sadly: "Well, in fact, the Zhou family used to be well-known for their friendship in the village. Later, when Zhou Guanfu got involved, Mrs. Zhao did indeed fall ill!"

After finishing speaking, he suddenly asked curiously: "However, you can't talk nonsense like this. How can you tell that Madam won't live for more than a year?"

"Ten ways and nine doctors!"

Seeing that Li Taoqi was so determined, the bearded man didn't care about doubts, he paused for a while, and suddenly felt sad, tears poured down his face.

In the later time, the three of them visited almost everyone in sequence, but they were basically gossips without any important things.

Uncle's clues could not go on, and Zhou Guanfu also encountered difficulties.No one is willing to open their mouths, and this long journey has indeed yielded nothing.

Helpless, Chen Chen planned to go back to the city tomorrow and try his best. This gossip-like town was the last night they lived here.

Sleeping into a nightmare last night, Chen Chen wanted to change rooms with Li Taoqi, but he refused to say anything!

So much so that I dare not turn off the lights, and I dare not sleep.I can only hug the wicker doll, squint my eyes and think wildly!
Everything was fine for the first half of the night, but after twelve o'clock, it started to snow heavily outside.

The swishing cool wind kept drilling into the room along the window above the head.

Chen Chen hid under the quilt and shivered from the cold, but he was more worried. After a while, the strangeness came again. The string at the switch by the wall vibrated out of thin air, and there was a "click"!
Lights went out!
Holding the wicker doll in his arms, Chen Chen deliberately did not open his eyes, and continued to pretend to sleep on his back.

Not long after, it was the same as yesterday, I felt the quilt move, as if someone was pulling it down forcefully.

Chen Chen became more and more nervous, wondering why the ugly baby in his arms hadn't responded yet?

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly felt that sticky substance began to drip down from the ceiling on his face again. Everything from yesterday was repeating itself. Chen Chen suppressed his nausea and secretly opened his eyes.

Apparently, there was a white face in that bowl-sized black hole on the ceiling!
The facial features on that face were blurred, blocking the hole and staring down at Chen Chen. With his mouth open, saliva dripped down and landed on Chen Chen's head!
