Shocking! The young educated youth had just arrived and was already clashing with spies.
Chapter 142: Being superstitious can kill people!
Sure enough, after a quick inspection of the house, Zhou Yichen asked Chu Xin, "What did you find?"
Chu Xin walked to the window and looked at the dark street outside.
"It's nothing. When you go to the police station later, ask if anything happened here."
Could she say that many of the houses on this street were empty, and that there were people watching in the dark?!
At this time, there was a knock on the door of the room. Chu Yunting went to open the door and saw two thermos bottles at the door. The staff at the front desk was running downstairs quickly.
"Huh? What's going on?"
Chu Yunting was really confused by her actions. They were not scary at all. Did they have to run away without looking back?
Chu Xin also walked over to take a look.
"It's okay, it's normal for a little girl to be timid."
Chu Yunting...
You are younger than her, how do you say such mature words?
I thought so in my heart, but didn't say it out loud. I just took the thermos into the room.
"So when are we going out?"
Chu Xin: "Go to another room and turn on the light. After a while, turn it off again and pretend to be asleep."
"Oh, okay, I'll come back later."
Chu Yunting obeyed and immediately took a thermos to another room.
He even closed the door, not thinking at all that it was inappropriate for Chu Xin and Zhou Yichen to be alone in the same room.
The main reason was that Chu Xin had to sleep in the open air with them throughout the journey, and he often ignored Chu Xin's gender.
He is so straightforward because he has a simple mind, but Zhou Yichen is different from him.
The moment the door closed, his heart started beating fast.
Afraid that Chu Xin might hear it, he subconsciously looked at her, but Chu Xin turned off the light with a "click"!
"dong dong dong"
In the darkness, Zhou Yichen felt his heartbeat getting louder, filling the entire room and making him feel uneasy.
Chu Xin had super senses, so it was impossible for her not to hear. She was just a little curious.
"Are you afraid?"
It shouldn't be the case. He's the captain, how dare he do that?
Zhou Yichen...
A guilty conscience flashed through my mind, but I didn't answer.
He intuitively felt that the "fear" Chu Xin meant was different from what he understood, so he did not speak rashly.
Sure enough, Chu Xin quickly said, "If you're afraid, I can go to the police station!"
Zhou Yichen stroked his forehead lightly, closed his eyes, and secretly laughed at himself for being so confused and thinking too much.
"No, I'm not afraid!"
However, after Chu Xin's interruption, he no longer had any thoughts of seeing ghosts, and his heartbeat returned to normal.
Chu Xin said "Oh" and stopped talking.
Soon Chu Yunting came over in the dark and was about to knock on the door.
With a "creak", Chu Xin opened the door from the inside first.
Chu Yunting hurried in and asked, "How is it? Can we move now?"
Chu Xin waited for a moment, making sure that everyone in the dark had left, before saying:
"Okay, everything is quiet, it's a good time to go out!"
Zhou Yichen...
Chu Yunting...
If you don't want to tell the reason, don't tell it, and don't make excuses like that.
After Zhou Yichen climbed out the window, Chu Yunting asked Chu Xin, "What are we going to do?"
Chu Xin moved freely in the darkness and opened the door and went out.
"If you're tired, go to sleep first. I'll go find some staff!"
The staff hiding in the lounge were shocked when they suddenly saw Chu Xin.
"You, aren't you asleep?"
Chu Xin nodded, but seeing that she was too nervous, he didn't get too close and just stood at the door.
"I couldn't sleep, and my companions were all asleep, so I wanted to talk to you."
As she spoke, she took out a handful of White Rabbit milk candies from her bag. It was really a handful, and one or two fell out from between Chu Xin's fingers.
Even though she worked in a guesthouse, the woman couldn't resist the candy that smelled of milk, and she quickly let Chu Xin into the house.
Chu Xin didn't bother to take it, and stuffed the candy into her hand neatly.
"What's your name, comrade? Can you tell me why you're so afraid of us?"
The staff member didn't expect Chu Xin to be so direct. He bit his lip and looked at the candy in his hand, choosing to avoid Chu Xin's questions, his voice so low that it was almost inaudible.
"My last name is Tang."
Chu Xin raised her eyebrows. So what if it was Tang? She didn’t necessarily need to know the name.
Comrade Tang's voice was low, and Chu Xin's voice was even lower.
The almost imperceptible voice was so ethereal and difficult to capture, causing Comrade Tang to involuntarily concentrate on listening carefully to Xin's words.
"Why are you afraid of us?"
Comrade Tang thought it was amazing. He could not hear the other person's voice unless he listened carefully, but why could he hear every word clearly in his ears?
No, the sound was not in her ears, but echoed in her brain, over and over again.
It was not until she was fully focused on thinking about the answer to this sentence that her mind gradually calmed down.
After a moment of silence, Chu Xin heard a rather bizarre story from her stumbling words.
"Recently, there was a campaign to 'destroy the four olds,' and an old house in the commune was ransacked, and then something happened.
Because the house was built by a wealthy person in the past, in addition to the front yard, the backyard is also very large. It is not only connected to the mountains and forests, but also has a large stage.
I heard from the old people that it was built specifically by dignitaries for listening to operas, hunting and having fun.
Later, due to war, the head of that family fled with his family and left the house behind.
When the Japanese invaded, it was used as a temporary stronghold and a bunker was built in front of it.
Therefore, many people died there. Even the wolves and wild dogs in the mountains would come to the house and bring corpses up the mountain as food.
No one lived there until after liberation, but I don’t know how it became known as unclean!
As soon as the call to "Destroy the Four Olds" came out, the Red Guards were fearless and smashed many temples and old houses.
The yard that was said to be haunted was not spared.
But after they smashed and looted things, many of the people involved fell ill, and some even died, causing panic among the people.
You came from that direction, so..."
Chu Xin frowned. When they came here, they did pass through a deserted old area.
She doesn't believe in ghosts or anything like that, she thinks it's more of a man-made disaster.
"Why are there so few residents on this street from the guesthouse?"
Comrade Tang seemed to think about it before answering Chu Xin:
"Most of the people living on this street were relatively wealthy, and most of the Red Guards were children of these families. When something happened, they all hid away."
So that’s it!
Chu Xin had a general idea and didn't ask any more questions. She had used too much mental energy today.
Moreover, for Comrade Tang, she did not harm her brain nerves, but used the most gentle method, which was the most mentally exhausting.
Chu Xin's head, which had been aching slightly during the day, hurt even more now.
She snapped her fingers at Comrade Tang to regain her consciousness.
"Is Comrade Tang too tired?"
Comrade Tang blinked, completely forgetting what she had just said. She looked at the candy still in her hand and mumbled:
"I'm sorry, I can't answer your question."
Chu Xin nodded. It was normal that she didn't want to answer.
First, I am really afraid of those weird statements, and most importantly, I am afraid of being caught.
Being superstitious can kill people!
"Nothing, I was just asking. I'm going back to sleep first!"
After saying that, he went out on his own initiative.
She did not go to Chu Yunting and the others, but returned to her room, washed up quickly, and lay down to rest.
I thought about going to the big yard that Comrade Tang mentioned to check it out in the second half of the night.
Unexpectedly, after sleeping for less than two hours, someone knocked on her door.
