Xi Qing is really a bit strange. Although I can't say it, I always feel that she is a bit out of place.

——Chu Mie

Everyone surrounded the two people who were having a fever with solemn faces.

These two people were already in a state of unconsciousness, and they kept humming vaguely, even if they leaned over to listen carefully, they couldn't hear what they were talking about.

Teacher Gao couldn't bear to watch the two go on like this, so she went to A Wu and A She to see if they had any cooling stickers or antipyretics.

It was true that the medicine was finally coming, but even if the medicine was given to the two of them immediately, there was no improvement.

The temperature on the foreheads of those two people was getting higher and higher.

There is an unspeakable frustration and fear among the players.

Because these two people obviously didn't have a fever due to being exposed to the rain, but probably encountered something that caused their high fever to persist like now.

Teacher Gao looked at the two people, sighed helplessly, and suggested: "Staying here is not an option, let's go to the attic on the third floor to have a look!"

So who stays and who goes to the third floor?

The situation on the third floor is unknown, maybe it is safer to stay and take care of the two sick people now.

"Let the newcomers and girls stay!"

This proposal was approved by everyone, but Xi Qing, who originally wanted to stay here as a girl to take care of the patients, refused to stay here, she said directly: "I don't want to just stay on the second floor to take care of the patients, and I am confident that I will not hold you back. "

Dou Tongtong also chose to go to the third floor because she was worried about Teacher Gao's health.

Some people gave them a strange look, thinking why they refused such a good job, but others looked at them with admiration.

…………

This time, Shen Huaiyun gathered all his things and opened the door to the third floor neatly.

Chu Mie glanced at the place where Shen Huaiyun was pushed, it seems that because there were too many people here, that kid didn't attack.

"Squeak-"

The faded wooden door was pushed open.

As the door opened, a heavy cloud of dust kicked up.

"Cough-cough-"

"It's so dark—"

There was almost no extra light in the attic. Someone groped along the wall, but found that there was no light switch except for the dust on his hand.

Everyone turned on the flashlights in their phones one after another.

The attic is very dated.

Dou Tongtong: "Look, there seem to be doors and windows in the attic!"

Indeed, the light coming from the opposite side can be clearly seen from here.

But the light only feels like a few slits.

Xi Qing raised her eyelids, didn't give her any attention at all, and continued to look for things on her own by the light of her mobile phone.

The bold man went up to touch it, and said with some frustration: "The door and window can't be opened, they are all nailed by wooden boards!"

However, considering the ventilation problem, the windows were not completely nailed, but there was a two-finger-wide gap between the wooden boards.

Then the only door that can be accessed in this room is this door.

"There are a lot of quilts here." Ye Zhi went to the corner and rummaged through the fabric. The cloth he picked up was damp and wrinkled, and the dust accumulated on the surface of the quilt was raised by his movements: "Puff cough cough cough——"

"Ah-"

Ye Zhi started to sneeze uncontrollably, almost spitting out his nose.He rubbed his nose hard, and said angrily: "The size of the quilt here seems to be wrong, and it has not been put away properly, and it is a bit moldy."

Shen Huaiyun: "Let me take a look."

Ye Zhi covered his nose to avoid it, it was really hard for him, a rhinitis patient, to inhale so much dust!

Shen Huaiyun went over and unfolded the quilt to feel the size.

"This quilt should be specially cut to such a small size. This size should be covered for children."

Dou Tongtong said: "It may be the quilt that A She and A Wu made when they were young."

"That's a bit too much."

Teacher Gao also went over to take a look, "If you say it's for two children, the number is really too much."

"Here are the toys."

Xi Qing lifted a corner of the cover on the box, staring at the scattered toys in the box in a daze.

Chu Mie leaned over to look at the toy, with a strange expression on his face.

From his perspective, it was clear that the toys were covered with black cotton wool.

He flicked it with his fleshy little hands, but found that the cotton wool could not be removed at all, and his fingers still felt a faint tingling sensation.

It doesn't look like black cotton wool.

Chu Mie turned his head to the side, feeling the tingling sensation in his hand - this feeling was no different from when he grabbed the ghost hand before.

He realized it suddenly.

This is not some black cotton wool, but resentment!

These toys are very worn out.

The hands and feet of the puppet inside were broken off, and the cotton inside was exposed on the plush toy, which showed very serious traces of man-made damage.

So these toys were broken on purpose.

Chu Mi fell into deep thought.

At this moment, he suddenly noticed Xi Qing who was next to him, and began to rummage through the toys in the box.

She didn't rummage randomly, she seemed to be looking for something on purpose.

Chu Mie interrupted his train of thought, frowning as he watched Xi Qing's movements.

Xi Qing stopped looking for things, and looked at the rabbit doll she found, her expression relaxed a little.

Chu Mie's expression became serious and vigilant.

The rabbit was supposed to be white.

Now because of the unknown dark brown solid and dust on the surface, it looks dirty, and people don't have any desire to touch it.

But what really caught Chu Mie's attention was the thick black cotton on the surface.

This resentment was too heavy.

Xi Qing looked at the rabbit doll in her hand without disdain, then put it back in place, and covered it with other dolls.

Afterwards, Xi Qing restored the box to its original position and covered it with cloth again.

This operation confused Chu Mie.

On the other side, another player discovered something new.

It's boy's clothes.

It's not surprising to find clothes though.

Strangely enough, there were two sets of these clothes, and they were all the same style and size.

"The clothes are probably worn by A She when he was a child."

"How can someone buy two sets of all clothes?"

"Maybe you like these clothes too much?"

"Even if you like a certain piece of clothing, you have to buy two sets, but you don't need to buy two sets of the same clothes, right?"

"This is too strange!"

"Does A She like to buy two of everything?"

Ye Zhi covered his nose and walked to Shen Huaiyun's side, and asked, "What do you think is the situation?"

Shen Huaiyun looked at these clothes and said, "Either A She really has a quirk of buying two, or—"

"Or what?"

"Although I don't know if it's reliable or not, I think A She probably has a brother."

"brother?"

"Yes." Shen Huaiyun picked up one of them, "These clothes are of the same age group and size, and they may be A She's brothers of the same age, or even a bolder guess - A She has a twin brother."

One player suddenly said: "It's not good!"

what happened?

Everyone else looked at the player with an ugly face in surprise.

"The person who stayed on the second floor sent a text message saying that the mayor is back!"

Everyone panicked, eager to squeeze outside.

Chu Mie's heart tightened.

The door of the attic itself is small, the stairs are old and steep, and there are little ghosts who don't know if they will make trouble. Now that there are so many people crowding towards the door, there may be big problems!

Shen Huaiyun also noticed this, but he was scrupled about the rule of not speaking loudly, so he could only hold back the people nearby, reminding them not to rush out blindly and anxiously, and by the way, please also hold the people nearby.

However, his movements were not as fast as those who went straight to the door.

At the stall where he held several people to explain, someone had already rushed out.

"Ahhh-"

There was a piercing scream in the stairwell, followed by the sound of flesh rolling down the stairs.

The people who originally wanted to squeeze out of the door suddenly froze in place.

Chu Mie penetrated through the people blocking the door, and clearly saw a person lying in a strange posture in a corner, his neck turned sideways at an unbelievable angle, and his body twitched uncontrollably.

The neck is broken.

Standing on a high place, Chu Mie looked down at the lifeless player. Although there was no emotion on his face, there was a strong sense of exhaustion in his heart.

You see, in the ghostly place of the Mirage, it's far easier to end a life than to keep it.

Because the mirage will always take your life when you are unsuspecting.

He turned his head to look at the players who were frightened or trying to calm down, knowing that what happened today might have greatly damaged the morale of these players.

A total of fourteen people came, and now two have died, and two people still have a high fever.

This is the first day!

Under the eyes of all the players, the player who fell down the stairs gradually lost his breath.

"..."

Someone couldn't help but took a step back.

Like an infectious disease, the other people blocking the door couldn't help taking a step back, not daring to move forward at all.

Standing at the end, Shen Huaiyun didn't know that someone had fallen to his death from the stairs, but he was vaguely aware that something must have happened ahead.

He tried his best to push the others away, to see what was going on.

Suddenly, I heard Teacher Gao's calm voice coming from the front:

"You all calm down."

Shen Huaiyun's originally anxious mood also calmed down a little. At the same time, he was also thankful that this team had relatively calm players, and he could also contribute to stabilize the situation when he had no way to help.

"I'll go downstairs alone first." Teacher Gao couldn't bear to look at the dead player, and sighed, "If you see that nothing happened to me, follow me downstairs too!"

Dou Tongtong, who was following him, tightly clenched Teacher Gao's sleeves, and with tears in his eyes, he whispered, "Mr. Gao, don't—"

"Xiao Dou." Teacher Gao patted her hand, signaling her to let go.

Dou Tongtong bit her lip and refused to let go no matter what.

Teacher Gao was moved by Dou Tongtong's concern for him, but said sadly: "Xiao Dou, I'm already in my sixties! No matter what, I've lived enough."

Dou Tongtong's breathing was stagnant, and after a while he let go of his hand stiffly and said, "Teacher, I regard you as a family member."

Teacher Gao smiled and sighed, "I know."

"I'll go!"

Dou Tongtong took a step forward and made up his mind: "Mr. Gao, I'll go downstairs first!"

Teacher Gao frowned.

Dou Tongtong has never seen him angry, but this time Teacher Gao said a little angrily: "Back it back! If you listen to me, back it up!"

Dou Tongtong opened his mouth, but didn't move back.

The other people blocking the door watched this scene quietly, feeling a little guilty in their hearts, but they were unwilling to risk their lives.

Shen Huaiyun stood there anxiously, because he was blocked behind and couldn't go to the front at all.

…………

Teacher Gao walked downstairs slowly.

When passing by the dead player, he paused, and finally walked down the stairs steadily.

Finally, Teacher Gao stood firmly downstairs.

There is no danger.

The people at the door looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally they all went downstairs one after another.

Shen Huaiyun was the last one to go downstairs, and only when he got out of the attic did he see the player who died in the stairwell, and only then did he realize what happened just now.

He looked at Mr. Gao with respect in his expression.

The players with low morale returned to the second floor and came to the room of the two patients with fever.

"How are the two of them doing now?"

One of the newcomers who took care of the patient shook his head: "The situation is still the same."

Suddenly, a player stared at the newcomer suspiciously, then pointed at the newcomer and asked in doubt, "Why—"

"what happened?"

"Didn't this person just say that the mayor is here? He should have come out of the attic with us, why did he appear here?"

"Huh?" The newcomer looked puzzled: "What are you talking about! I've been staying on the second floor!"

The girl who took care of the patients with the newcomer explained: "Yes, he and I have been here all the time. And the mayor hasn't come back either!"

The player was stunned: "Then who was the one who told me that the mayor is back?"

The crowd quieted down.

The player who was stared at by everyone with strange expressions also realized something belatedly.

"So, the one who just talked to me in the attic—"

"I'm afraid it's not human at all."
