As the candlelight burned, a strange smell was emitted, and the black centipede river gradually receded and disappeared from the tree hole.

Next to the candle in the corner, there are some words engraved: The candle flame that centipedes are afraid of can be filled with chicken fat. Remember not to kill chickens, and be careful of swamp witches.

Next to the surrounding corpses, in addition to guns and bullets, there was a notebook and a mobile phone neatly placed.

Open the notebook——

Audio 1——

"Hello, this is operator Yang Meng, please go ahead..."

"Excuse me, are you the Demon Hunting Team?"

"Yes, what happened?"

"I just rented this house, No. 4 Fulin Lane. There are problems with this house. There are strange noises and my husband is missing. I'm very scared now..."

"I suggest you leave that house immediately..."

There was a sudden silence on the phone.

"Hello, can you hear me?"

"Zizizi...ka..."

A faint electric current sound came from the phone, which gradually became louder and more distorted, and then returned to calm again.

"Hello, is anyone else here? Hello..."

"Ka...kaka...kakaka...beep, beep, beep."

The call was disconnected with a sharp sound.

Audio 1——

"Auntie, are you a resident of Building 3 here?" Wang Bo asked an aunt who was coming back from buying groceries.

"Yes."

"A tenant moved into house number 4 next door yesterday. Did you know about this?"

"Hmm." Auntie's expression changed slightly. "You are from the Demon Hunting Team, right? May I ask what happened next door?"

"We're still figuring it out. Could you please tell us about the situation of the family in House 4?"

"Okay, about four years ago, a family of four moved in next door. They were a couple and their parents-in-law. The two old people... well, they weren't easy to get along with. The residents here didn't interact with them much on weekdays."

The aunt lowered her voice, "As for the young couple, the man died in a car accident a year ago. Since then, I've rarely seen the woman. Let me think, the last time I saw her..."

The voice stopped abruptly, and the aunt's expression changed again and again.

"What's wrong?" Wang Bo asked.

"I saw her this morning, right by the window." Auntie gestured to the open second-story window of the house next door and shook her head. "I shouldn't have seen her."

"Ok?"

"Ever since her husband died, the in-laws have chained the woman to... that very room. They won't even let her out the door, and they can't even get close to the windows on weekdays."

Auntie continued, "I haven't seen her for half a year, except today..."

"Are you sure you saw her this morning?" Wang Bo glanced up at the second-floor window.

"Yes, I even said hello to...but there was no response, and she disappeared through the window."

Auntie sighed, "The in-laws said that the woman's mental health has been a problem since her son died."

Wang Bo took over the conversation: "In that case, she and her husband had a good relationship before."

"It's not good. I often hear beatings and scoldings. The man looks very fierce."

My aunt paused. "Normally, both her husband and her parents-in-law treat her badly. It's probably because she can't have children. Those three sometimes tell others that she's a fickle woman."

"Can you describe the woman's appearance?"

"She has good facial features and would look good with some dressing up, but she's not allowed to do that. Her hands are very rough, probably from doing housework all the time."

Auntie continued, "She was quite diligent. When her husband was still alive, she would always greet us with a smile when she saw us. Even though she often had wounds on her face, I would sometimes secretly give her some ointment."

With a slightly angry look on his face, he said, "That family refused to let her go to the hospital. They can't explain it clearly."

"By the way, what's her name?"

"Yes, I called..." Auntie looked thoughtful for a long time, "I'm sorry, my memory is not good, I can't remember it at the moment."
