Horror Game: Cthulhu Fairy Tales

Chapter 60 The Real World (11)

When Huang Xiang was wondering why there was no wreath at the door, Xie Yueye knocked on the door.

"Knock Knock Knock-"

A regular knock on the door echoed throughout the corridor.

Huang Xiang was wondering why there was such a loud echo in the entire old corridor when the door that was knocked opened by itself.

"Squeak-"

The sound of the old wooden door opening reminded Huang Xiang of some horror movies. It seemed that those movies also featured such old houses.

"Uh……"

The blond man trembled because of the cold air coming from the door, and became even more frightened.

"Brother Xie, don't you think there are any monsters in there? Otherwise, why would the captain's house be so cold?"

Huang Xiang rubbed his arms and felt extremely cold. It wasn't winter yet, so why was it so cold?

"What do you think is in there?"

Xie Yueye did not answer his question, but asked a question in return and walked in.

"Xie bro...what's wrong with you? Hey!"

Looking at the long-haired man walking into the dim room, Huang Xiang also nervously followed Xie Yueye in.

Huang Xian had never seen Lynch's house so dim. In his impression, Lynch's house was always bright and warm, and it had never made him feel so eerie and terrifying.

As soon as Xie Yueye entered the door, he saw a shrine opposite the gate, and something was enshrined in the shrine.

"Did Yu Xixi tell you which deity or Buddha she worships at home?"

Xie Yueye walked into the shrine against the wall and asked Huang Xiang behind him.

Huang Xiang shook his head and moved closer to the shrine.

"Brother Xie, you know that the captain and Sister Xixi don't believe this."

Xie Yueye also knew that Lin Qi, like them, did not believe in these legends about gods and ghosts. Even in the Special Operations Department, he could always use some scientific explanations to explain those strange phenomena.

The door of the shrine was closed. When Xie Yueye opened it, he saw a small statue with its face covered inside.

"What is this? Why is it in the captain's house?"

Even Huang Xiang knew very well that the Lin Qi couple were well-known in the entire department for not believing in such gods and Buddhas.

"Go see if Lin Yu is here first."

After Xie Yueye said this to Huang Xiang, he began to observe the shape of the statue.

"Oh! Yes! I'll go check it out!"

Huang Xiang, whose attention was attracted by the statue, then remembered that the purpose of their rushing over was to confirm whether Lin Yu was safe.

Huang Xiang hurried to Lin Yu's bedroom door and knocked.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Lin Yu, are you in there? I'm coming in!"

Huang Xiang glanced at the sign on the door saying "Don't enter my room without permission!", sighed, and turned the doorknob.

After turning the door handle, Huang Xiang clearly heard the sound of the lock cylinder turning, but the door could not be pushed open.

"Lin Yu, are you in there?"

"Bang bang bang!"

Huang Xiang nervously knocked on the door again, but there was still no response from inside, and the girl's bedroom door was obviously locked.

"Step aside!"

After observing the statue for a while, Xie Yueye did not dare to lift the cloth covering it, so he could only solve other problems first.

"Xie bro, wait!"

Before the yellow-haired man could stop Xie Yueye, he kicked open the bedroom door.

"Oh my god... Brother Xie, you are so strong!"

Huang Xiang muttered something and rushed into the room.

The bedroom was empty, the window was open, and a bed sheet was tied to the corner of the desk, extending out of the window.

“Brother Xie, Xiaoyu might have run away from here!”

Huang Xiang walked to the window and confirmed that there were still a lot of bedding under the sheets, extending all the way to the ground.

"Um……"

Xie Yueye moved closer to the bed to confirm and said "hmm" softly.

"Should we go down and look for Xiaoyu now?"

Huang Xiang scratched his head, confused as to why Lin Yu ran away from the room.

"Do not……"

Xie Yueye directly opened the girl's closet and began to search carefully.

Xie Yueye remembered that Lin Qi had said a long time ago that his daughter was very smart and had the habit of taking notes. It was very likely that there was something in the closet that she had not taken away.

Seeing Xie Yueye searching everywhere, Huang Xiang wanted to stop him but he held back.

Finally, Xie Yueye felt something different at the bottom of the wardrobe.

"咚咚-"

The man moved the quilt above him, tapped lightly on the floor of the closet, and heard an echo.

“Click—”

According to his own guess, Xie Yueye gently pressed a protrusion on the side, and a small secret compartment door at the bottom of the wardrobe popped open, revealing a notebook inside.

"Oh my god... this little girl Xiaoyu is really extraordinary..."

Huang Xiang admired on the side and looked at the notebook placed there.

"Brother Xie, this can't be Xiaoyu's diary, right? It's not good to peek at a little girl's diary."

Xie Yueye completely ignored what Huang Xiang said, took out the notebook, and saw the few words written on the first page.

"Mom has changed! Dad, please come back soon!"

Xie Yueye flipped back and found that Lin Yu had recorded his mother's daily changes in great detail, writing down every detail in this small notebook.

[Today, Mom brought back a shrine. It's so strange... Mom and Dad never believed in this.]

[It’s so strange, my mother suddenly cried and asked me to go to the next city to study…]

[I came back secretly today and saw my mother putting that thing, it was so weird! ]

[Tonight, while she was asleep, I secretly took a look at it. It was so strange that the thing had no face.]

[I felt like she noticed what I was doing, but I wasn't afraid! My father told me that as long as you behave properly, there is nothing to be afraid of in this world!]

【Something's wrong...】

Starting from a certain page, Lin Yu's notebook was filled with words saying something was wrong, but he didn't go into detail until the last page.

[My father got into trouble, and my mother asked me to come back. I knew it would probably be my turn, so I had to escape...but I had nowhere to go.]

This sentence that suddenly appeared in the last few pages made Xie Yueye feel inexplicably creepy.

[I remembered that my father once said that if one day he asked me to go find the uncle named Xie, but I didn’t know where he was, but…but…I felt that she was about to come in, and I had to run away…]

The last few words showed that the person who wrote them was very scared, even a little distorted, but she still wrote the last sentence.

[I hope Uncle Xie can see this notebook. Uncle Xie, please save my mother. ]

Seeing this, Xie Yueye fell silent.

"That's strange... Brother Xie, you've been gone for five years, how could she..."

Huang Xiang felt very strange as to why this little girl suddenly mentioned Xie Yueye in her notes.

"It's simple, because there are people in her world who have always told her who I am!"
