Yao Yingyi quickly made a pot of fish soup and warmed it in the pot, pointed out the precautions by Shao Jun's stove again, turned around and went back to the bedroom.

When he reappeared, he had already changed into a suit.It doesn't look at all like a dress ready to walk on a muddy mountain road, but it looks like it's well-dressed to meet an important person on an appointment.

Shao Jun just wanted to ask Yao Yingyi if he was going to leave.But he didn't want Yao Yingyi to approach Shao Jun with a roll of blankets instead.He took off the windbreaker over Shao Jun's pajamas and put it in his arms, and carefully covered Shao Jun with a blanket.

Shao Jun was like a hamster hugging its nest, wrapped in a blanket and curled up on the rattan chair, looking up at Yao Yingyi without saying a word.

Yao Yingyi thought that Shao Jun was still annoyed that she didn't take him down the mountain, so she bent down and held Shao Jun in her arms through the blanket: "Brother will be back in the afternoon. Let's not be angry, okay? Junjun kid"

Shao Jun turned his head, deliberately not looking at Yao Yingyi.

Yao Yingyi wasn't angry either, she straightened Shao Jun's head and rubbed her cheek against Shao Jun's cheek: "Is there anything you want? Brother will bring it back for you soon?"

Shao Jun blinked, pondered for a moment, but finally shook his head: "I don't know."

"Okay, brother, let's watch." Yao Yingyi let go of Shao Jun, straightened his clothes, "Brother is going to leave, Junjun, do you remember what I told you just now?"

Shao Jun thought about the precautions that Yao Yingyi said just now, and nodded.

Finally, Yao Yingyi checked the blanket carefully, and after confirming that Shao Jun was well surrounded by the blanket, he shook the windbreaker, wiped the marks of being crumpled by Shao Jun casually, and put it on.

Just when Shao Jun thought that Yao Yingyi was about to leave after getting dressed, Yao Yingyi turned around and walked towards the studio.

Shao Jun watched him take out a very familiar key from his trousers.Although Yao Yingyi opened the door with his back to Shao Jun, covering the key in his hand almost completely, but a few strands of colorful light inadvertently leaked out, making Shao Jun instantly think of the key he had hidden under the floor tiles in the bedroom.

With a creak, the door of the studio was opened.Before Shao Jun stretched his neck to take a peek, the door was quickly closed again.But he was not annoyed, if he guessed correctly, the key that would reveal the words "Yao Yingyi" under the light was also the key to the studio that had been locked all along.Compared with the brief spying at this moment, he had enough time to enter this room after Yao Yingyi left.

This time he could finally know if anyone was really imprisoned in that room?And could this person be the owner of the pair of eyes I saw before?

Looking at the closed studio door, Shao Jun quickly outlined his own activity plan after Yao Yingyi left.In his heart, he couldn't help but hope that Yao Yingyi would leave soon, so that he could enter that room early.

Probably because Shao Jun was too absorbed in his thoughts, when he heard Yao Yingyi's footsteps, he realized that Yao Yingyi had left the studio and was walking towards Shao Jun holding a square object in his arms.

"Jun Jun, this is for you." Yao Yingyi reached out and placed the thing in his arms on the table in front of Shao Jun.

At this time, Shao Jun noticed that the square thing was a book, thinking of yesterday's brother saying that he would find some books for himself to pass the boring time.

Shao Jun thought he had guessed what his brother was thinking.

He glanced up at the cover of the book.Although there are no strange patterns drawn on the cover, there are only a few unfamiliar characters outlined with golden lines.But looking at those distorted words tangled together, Shao Jun felt palpitations for some reason.

"Brother?" Shao Jun pointed to the book.

Yao Yingyi patted the cover, and pushed the book closer to Shao Jun: "When you're bored later, you can use it to pass the time."

Shao Jun stretched out his hand to flip through the pages at will, and suddenly opened the double-page illustration that was exactly the same as he remembered, with the monster painted on it.

Is this the book about the monster that attacked me yesterday afternoon?

Shao Jun opened his eyes wide and turned to look at Yao Yingyi.

Yao Yingyi didn't immediately answer Shao Jun's doubts, but instead pointed to the monster in the illustration, motioning Shao Jun to take a look.

Shao Jun carefully looked at the illustrations on this page again.

Under the night, the monster stood by the tombstone and roared towards the void outside the book.It looks very human at first glance, but its skin is covered with moss-like things, its feet are like goat's hooves, and its hands are like raptors with sharp claws.Although the appearance of a human being can be vaguely seen in the face, the mouth has sharp teeth, more like a hungry wolf that devours people.

Shao Jun was very thankful that his eyes were covered by a black cloth yesterday, so he didn't have to face such a terrifying creature with his own eyes.But what he didn't understand was that even though he was facing the appearance of this monster right now, he knew in his heart that this monster must be fierce and terrifying, but for some reason, he didn't have much resistance to this monster, and even had a sense of closeness that couldn't go away. .

"Brother, is this the monster that appeared yesterday? This book is about it?" Shao Jun asked, pointing to the monster in the illustration.

Yao Yingyi didn't answer directly, but urged Shao Jun to flip through other pages.

Although Shao Jun was puzzled, he still obediently turned a few pages back.At this time, the pages of the book I turned to were full of very unfamiliar words, which looked like English, but when I read it carefully, it was completely different, and I couldn't read it at all.

"Do you understand?" Yao Yingyi asked, pointing to a line of text on the page.

Shao Jun shook his head.

"What about the others?" Yao Yingyi turned a few pages back.

From Shao Jun's point of view, these new pages may indeed have different characters from the previous ones, but in the final analysis, they are all characters that he cannot understand.He could not read at all what was written on it.

"I still don't understand. What's the matter, brother. You don't answer my questions, but keep asking me if I understand." Shao Jun asked pretendingly angrily.

Yao Yingyi stared at Shao Jun for a few seconds, and finally seemed to give up on something, and closed the book: "Forget it if you don't understand, and I will explain the rest to you when brother comes back."

However, Shao Jun felt that this matter was not so simple. Yao Yingyi's inexplicable behavior was not so much to confirm whether he could understand the book, but rather to test something through it.

But for what reason, Shao Jun didn't know.He stared at Yao Yingyi's face, hoping to find out something from Yao Yingyi's expression.But a thought flashed in my mind, and suddenly a sentence popped up like a ghost: "Brother, do you know Yao Yingyan?"

After finishing speaking, Shao Jun regretted it. He asked too abruptly, and he didn't know what kind of trouble it would cause.

When Yao Yingyi heard the name Yao Yingyan, his expression froze instantly and his pupils dilated, as if he had heard some terrible news.He turned around to avoid Shao Jun's gaze and was about to leave, but now he turned his head, bent down and grabbed the armrests on both sides of the rattan chair, stared at Shao Jun and asked sharply, "Where did you know this name?"

Shao Jun was taken aback by his reaction, his body flinched involuntarily, losing his position all of a sudden.

"Jun Jun, answer brother!"

"I... I... This will... pop up in my mind suddenly, I just feel very familiar." Shao Jun turned his head to avoid Yao Yingyi's eyes, and replied hesitantly.

"Are you familiar with it?" Yao Yingyi seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be asking Shao Jun.

Shao Jun nodded.

Yao Yingyi asked again: "Who do you think he is?"

Shao Jun shook his head, wanting to say that he didn't know, but when he opened his mouth, he still said two words: "Brother".

This answer seemed to be beyond Yao Yingyi's expectations, and he laughed mockingly.

Shao Jun immediately realized that he must have guessed something wrong.

"elder brother?"

"Forget it, it's okay. Junjun, it's okay." Yao Yingyi raised his hand to look at the time, his expression became gentle, and his voice was no longer aggressive. "I'll talk to you when my brother comes back. Don't wander around at home. If you're sleepy, go back." Sleep in the room for a while, brother will be back soon." Yao Yingyi turned around and hurried towards the courtyard door as if running away.

Shao Jun wanted to ask something more, but in the end he didn't ask anything, he just watched his brother disappear behind the courtyard gate, and said goodbye.
