Chapter 208 Christmas must be warm

According to reports, a middle-aged man died tragically in the apartment on the night of December 12, and his daughter's whereabouts are unknown. The case is currently under investigation.

I am Ning, born on Christmas Eve.

Everyone in the academy had left, and I was sitting alone by the flower bed, subconsciously flicking the small bottle on my wrist.It was made by Dad himself. It has a strange shape, like a nail, with some off-white sand in it, which is dull.But despite this, I still like it very much and have been hanging on my wrist as a talisman since I was a child.

Dad is a very nice person. He is a professor in this medical school and often has to work overtime until late at night.I have no impression of my mother. I heard from my father that she disappeared shortly after I was born, and she seemed to have run away.I have only seen her in a few group photos. In the photos, the mother always stands behind the crowd with her head bowed halfway, her long hair falling down to cover her cheeks.She has a pair of unusually beautiful eyes, shining with a faint blue light.

"It's annoying, why isn't dad coming here~ It's almost 5 o'clock." I couldn't bear it anymore, so I went directly to the laboratory building to find him.

The laboratory building after school was deserted, a few beams of bleak sunlight shone in the corridor, and the sound of footsteps echoed long.I tightened the scarf around my neck. Although I didn't feel scared, it was really cold in here.

The door of the office is locked, it seems that he is not here.I turned around in disappointment, and saw that the door of the opposite specimen room was slightly opened, is it here?I gently opened the door.

"Dad?" The room was empty and there was no one there, "It's so careless, I didn't even lock the door." I walked around in boredly while muttering.

I am very familiar with this place. I especially liked to play in it when I was a child. I don’t know why, but I always feel very warm.

Some internal organs are soaked in the bottle on the wooden table, suspended in strands.There are also some strange-shaped utensils, which are very important experimental equipment for Dad.I turned around and walked towards the window, where there was a shelf of human skeleton specimens.When I was a child, I liked standing there the most, counting the bones one by one on tiptoe. I still remember saying a silly sentence at that time: "I like it so much, I want to be with it forever."

I haven't come in to see it for almost two years, and I found that I have grown really fast, and my head has already jumped to a height almost parallel to it, and I no longer have to look up to look hard.

Probably because the first time I looked at it so closely, I felt a little unaccustomed.I closed my eyes, stretched out my hand and touched those slender bones little by little, trying to recall the names of the 206 bones that were taken down when I was a child, but my mind was blurred and I couldn't remember anything.Alas~ I sighed softly in my heart.Suddenly, I felt something cold and wet with my fingers. I was startled and opened my eyes suddenly.It turned out to be something like a piece of wood, embedded in the left breastbone, very thin and small, and I hadn't noticed it before. "Whose prank again!" I was a little angry, how could I treat the specimen like this?I pinched the protruding part of the wood chip with my fingers, turned and pulled it out.Probably due to excessive force, the bones began to shake continuously. I hurriedly supported it, but carelessly knocked off the sand bottle on my wrist.

"Ning, why are you here!" I turned my head and saw my father standing outside angrily, "I looked for you outside..." He stopped suddenly, his eyes fixed on the piece of wood in my hand, flashing with fear.Then he rushed up and snatched the piece of wood, and forced it into the gap in the bone.Although I didn't realize what was going on, I took advantage of the moment and quickly picked up the sand bottle on the ground and put it on.This is something my father attaches great importance to. He tells me five times a day to keep it safe. If I let him know that I just let his baby have a close contact with the ground, I will be blamed.

Dad straightened the specimen, turned around and saw me with a questioning face, and quickly explained: "This piece of wood is used to fix the specimen. If the gap is not plugged, the bone will be deformed."

"Ah?" So~~ I thought I had done a great deed.

"Ah, what, you are almost 15 years old, don't you even know this?" Dad stared at me seriously, then suddenly changed the topic, "Let me see your sand bottle, is it done? drop?"

"Yes... well... keep it!" I broke out in a cold sweat, this stinky dad really knows how to talk.

"Really?"

"Of course." I showed what I thought was the brightest smile, "How could your daughter make such an idiot-level mistake, you have to fully trust me."

Dad stared suspiciously for a long time, and finally believed it.He turned around and patted the skeleton's shoulder lovingly, "Don't touch it again, it won't do if it gets damaged." I breathed a sigh of relief and nodded desperately.I secretly vowed in my heart that I must practice my lying skills to the point of perfection.

I didn't sleep well at night, there was always some blue light shining in my dream, and a voice called my name softly: "Ning, Ning, come here..."

When I woke up the next day, I found that the sheets were soaked in sweat and my body was sticky.It was so troublesome, I rushed to the bathroom to take a shower.

"Huh? Why did the sand change color a bit?" I stared at the bottle strangely, "Too bad, it must have been broken yesterday and got into the water." Life is hard~~ It seems that I have to be careful in the future, if my father sees it, it will be terrible. up.

In the next month, because I was busy with homework, I didn't go to the laboratory building to wait for my father, and I didn't see the specimen again, so the matter faded away.

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, the streets are decorated with lights, and the store windows are crookedly sprayed with merry christmas, and a small Christmas tree is placed, which feels very good.My dad and I made an appointment to go shopping together today, and he even turned down a party because of it.

When I went to find my father, I passed the herbarium again, and I couldn't help but go in.The skeleton is still in its original position. I noticed that its right hand has only four fingers. Looking up through the two parts that used to be eyes, I saw a blue light that seemed to be lit in the distance, very vague blue.Suddenly I heard the voice in my dream again, and she whispered in my ear: "Ning, Ning, come here..." I was shocked, and ran out quickly. When I closed the door, I saw the skeleton standing alone in the wind. shaking.

At night, I started to dream again, many fragments, disorganized, like an old silent movie.Suddenly, some images clearly emerged in my mind. I saw a woman with blue eyes lying in the bathtub with blood on her face, and her skin was rotting away bit by bit.I heard that voice again: "Ning, Ning, come here..." Then I saw her eyes dim rapidly, and a figure flashed in front of her.

"No!" I sat up suddenly, a few beams of gorgeous sunlight circled quietly on the window sill, and my forehead was covered with cold and sticky sweat.What exactly do these dreams mean?I threw off the quilt, put on my coat and rushed outside.

Because it was a holiday, most of the people from the medical school had gone back, and only a few cleaners were left to clean up.Walking in the silent corridor, I felt the creeps for the first time.

Dad didn't know where he went, so I walked into the herbarium.

The curtains of the room were drawn, and it looked very dark. This weird atmosphere was really annoying. I walked over while muttering, but the moment my fingers touched the curtains, I heard a strange "" "Crack" sound.

My face froze, I saw the skeleton vibrating slightly, and the voice sounded again: "Ning, Ning, come here..."

I heard my rapid breathing, and my heart pounded hard against my chest. It was terrible. I wanted to run away, but my feet moved toward it involuntarily.It turned its head, yes, if that could be called a head.Where it turned out to be the eyes, there was a faint blue light in the depths of the pair of pitch-black holes.Then I saw a beautiful woman with quiet blue eyes and long hair falling down over her cheeks.She walked over, her black silk dress dragging across the ground, silently.She called my name in a melancholy voice: "Ning." I held my breath, and I noticed that she had only four fingers on her right hand.

She looked down at me with those unusually beautiful eyes and said, "Ning, that man killed me and locked my soul in a skeleton for 15 years. I hate him. Now I'm going to do it." What I should do, thank you for saving me." Blue suddenly flooded the sky, and I subconsciously covered my head with my hands and stepped back.But nothing happened, and the surroundings soon became quiet.I opened my eyes, the skeleton was still placed by the window, and everything was as it was before. "Damn it." I turned around and yanked open the curtains, "Go to hell with the damn thing." I cursed hard and ran out.The air in this place is really suffocating.

It was past 8 o'clock when I got home at night, and I had been wandering on the street.The food on the table has not been moved.Dad seemed to be taking a bath. When he heard me coming back, he stopped the water in a hurry, and scolded me by the way: "Stinky girl, I forgot my birthday~ I came back so late." I stood listlessly at the door of the bathroom and waited for him , I must talk to him about this matter today, maybe I have some kind of schizophrenia or something.

"Dad, come out quickly, I have something to tell you~" I habitually raised my wrist and played with the small sand bottle. The discoloration of the sand became more and more serious. Shining blue light.Youlan?After a while, I felt a "thump" in my heart, and my hands hung in mid-air.

"What's up girl?" The bathroom door opened, and Dad walked out while wiping his wet hair with a towel.His eyes fell on the bottle of sand, his eyes suddenly widened in fear, and his lips twitched constantly. "You bastard!" He rushed forward, I have never seen such a vicious expression on his face, I just instinctively closed my eyes and avoided it.

Then I heard a strange sound, and when I opened my eyes, I saw Dad's body was surrounded by a cloud of blue mist, his head bumped against the edge of the bathtub, and his hands were dancing desperately in the air.The room was filled with blunt and heavy impact sounds, the bright and viscous liquid overflowed the tiles little by little, and the sweet and greasy aroma of blood was everywhere.I stood blankly, and some vague fragments appeared in my mind: the woman with blue eyes, lying in the bathtub with blood on her face, her body was rotting little by little.A figure flashed before my eyes. I will never forget that face distorted by terror. It was my father when he was young.

The hands finally drooped feebly, and I saw the woman again in a trance. Her long hair fell down and covered her cheeks. She called my name softly: "Ning, my daughter."

I just looked at her blankly, and she said, "You know what? I have been sealed for so many years, and it was you who set me free, because you removed the mahogany nails from my chest." She smiled, very sweetly She smiled, "Only when the two items lose their effectiveness at the same time, can I regain my freedom." I was slightly startled, and she pointed to the sand bottle on my wrist with her incomplete right hand, "There is The ashes of my ring finger, you have stronger spiritual power, so I have been unable to escape, please return it to me now, I have to leave here." I didn't speak, just held the bottle in my hand and handed it over.Then the sand slowly condensed and disappeared.

She smiled again, really a very beautiful smile, "Thank you, Ning."

"But...why did Dad treat you like this?" I finally spoke.

She lowered her head and looked at me with her unusually beautiful eyes, she said softly: "Because I am a witch, Ning, we are not allowed to live at that time."

She turned around and said, "Okay, Ning, I will take his soul away. And you, I will let you start your life again."

Then I felt dizzy, and saw that beautiful woman with blue eyes in the dark, she said softly: "Ning, you will be happy."
