Chapter 65: It Seems To Be Sister
“Mom… tasty…”
The voice of the boy in front of them kept echoing in their ears.
The boy kept repeating these words, gnawing on Wang Qinwen’s body without stopping.
“What exactly is going on?”
Liu Zining couldn’t stop shivering.
“Brother Liu…”
She wanted to say more, but found that her surroundings were quiet.
Turning her head, Liu Haoyu had already disappeared.
Such a large man vanished in the blink of an eye to an unknown place.
This made Liu Zining hold her breath.
She knew this was no ordinary murder case.
It was a complete supernatural event.
And what was worse, this supernatural event was very likely related to a ghost infant.
Ghost infant… this thing’s power was terrifyingly strong.
If she faced it alone, even Liu Zining had no certainty of victory.
Liu Haoyu’s sudden disappearance was also likely the ghost infant’s doing.
She placed her hand on her shoulder bag.
Inside it was a handgun.
Due to her connection with the Special Task Force and their frequent need for her help.
However, the problem was that Liu Zining, as a girl, although dealing with ghosts and spirits was not a problem, if she encountered criminals armed with weapons… she would have no way to defend herself with just the wrench in her hand.
So the Special Task Force realized this and specially obtained a police handgun for Liu Zining to protect herself.
Every ghost exorcist was a valuable human resource for the country.
They certainly wouldn’t treat Liu Zining like a stray sheep and neglect her.
Moreover, they also had the ability to get this item approved.
Liu Zining disengaged the safety.
At the same time, she focused her gaze on the boy still gnawing on the corpse.
He ate with gusto, as if savoring a delicious meal.
Even eating intestines looked like eating noodles.
Liu Zining clearly knew that the boy in front of her was very unusual; he was likely possessed by something unholy, and he was… not human anymore.
“Sister,” the boy raised his blood-stained face again, grinning, and said, “Want to eat together?”
“Sister… you smell so good… I want to eat you…”
Before he finished speaking, the boy suddenly lunged, like a rocket taking off, and pounced directly at Liu Zining.
And this young girl reacted very quickly; she grabbed a lightning-attracting talisman, ready to unleash it.
But just then, she felt her body as if locked by something.
Upon closer inspection… a slender, pale hand was tightly gripping her arm, pulling her to the ground.
This hand was very small, seemingly a girl’s arm, and it suddenly emerged from the darkness. Even Liu Zining’s strong intuition couldn’t react in time.
But now was not the time for her to overthink.
The boy was almost upon her, and Liu Zining was firmly locked by the hand emerging from the darkness, unable to retaliate.
What to do?!
In just an instant, the boy had reached Liu Zining.
The distance between them was less than half a meter, and a very foul smell assailed her, almost making Liu Zining vomit.
“Sister… so fragrant… I really want to eat you…”
The boy opened his mouth, filled with blood and sinews, like the gaping maw of a beast.
“Slap!”
But before the boy’s mouth could descend, an embroidered shoe slammed directly into his face.
Although it was just a shoe hitting his face, the boy was sent flying as if hit by a truck.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”
He fell to the ground, clutching his face, rolling continuously, and letting out a shrill scream.
The sound was very sharp, not like something a human could make.
Qin Liu came to Liu Zining’s side, pulled the girl up from the ground, and asked.
“Are you alright?”
Still shaken, Liu Zining felt a sense of inexplicable security rise in her heart the moment she saw Qin Liu.
This feeling reminded her of childhood memories.
Because she was playful, Liu Zining was locked in a granary for a whole day when she was little. It was cold, she was hungry, and coupled with extreme nervousness, she felt great fear and despair.
Facing the pitch-black darkness, the girl who hugged her knees let out soft sobs.
But just then, the granary door was pushed open.
Her sister appeared before her and extended her hand, saying.
“Are you okay?”
It was this familiar feeling that made Liu Zining somewhat dazed.
She even subconsciously thought that the person in front of her was not Qin Liu, but her sister…
“I… I’m fine.”
Qin Liu looked at the boy on the ground who was no longer moving and said comfortingly.
“Don’t be afraid, I’m still here, aren’t I?”
The girl in front of her showed a very cute smile.
But Liu Zining’s intuition could tell… Qin Liu was also very scared.
Just like the very forced smile her sister showed when she walked into the dark granary.
Liu Zining grabbed Qin Liu’s hand and used it to pull herself up from the ground.
However, what she felt was not Qin Liu’s hand, but a physical form condensed from Qin Liu’s resentment.
Therefore, it was very cold to the touch, and even a little painful.
Seeing Liu Zining stand up again, Qin Liu suppressed her fear.
Although the scene just now had a significant impact on her, in front of Liu Zining, she gathered her courage.
“I’ll go check.”
Qin Liu, holding the embroidered shoe, walked towards the boy lying on the ground.
She felt a little nervous, and her hand holding the embroidered shoe was slightly pale from gripping it too hard.
Fortunately, after Qin Liu confirmed repeatedly, the boy on the ground was no longer breathing.
To prevent him from resuscitating, Qin Liu picked up the shoe and hit his head hard three times.
After waiting for a while with no reaction, she returned to Liu Zining’s side.
“What’s the situation right now? How did such a big man like Liu Haoyu disappear?”
In response to Qin Liu’s question, Liu Zining took out a talisman from her pocket. The talisman emitted a faint blue light and gradually turned into ashes.
After dusting off the ashes in her hand, Liu Zining spoke.
“It seems we’ve been pulled into a ghost domain, or in simpler terms, an illusion.”
“This situation can only be resolved when dawn breaks or when the owner of the ghost domain is found.”
“The fact that I was suddenly locked by a hand that appeared out of nowhere means… there’s a second ghost in this house, but it’s hidden very deeply, and I can’t find it.”
Liu Zining’s words made Qin Liu swallow involuntarily.
But her competitive spirit made her unwilling to show it in front of Liu Zining.
So she could only pretend to be very calm and said.
“Then Liu Haoyu should be in reality right now?”
“Yes, it will take him some effort to get in.”
After speaking, Liu Zining looked around. Because she was suddenly pulled to the ground by the ghost hand that appeared from the darkness, her ankle was twisted.
So she needed to find a place to rest.
“Let’s go upstairs first.”
The place was full of the smell of blood, and it wasn’t comfortable to stay here.
So after Liu Zining proposed it, she began to walk upstairs, limping.
Seeing her like this, Qin Liu quickly asked.
“Are you injured?”
“Twisted my ankle, it’s nothing.”
Before Liu Zining finished speaking, Qin Liu quickly supported her.
The entity condensed from resentment was so cold, but the concern in Qin Liu’s eyes was so warm.
“Let me help you to the bedroom to sit for a while.”
“Okay…”
Liu Zining’s feelings became increasingly strange. Although their appearances were different, she always felt that… Qin Liu’s personality was very similar to her sister’s.
Moreover, could this heartfelt concern be something that someone they had met for less than a week could show?
Qin Liu didn’t know what Liu Zining was thinking.
She only knew that she needed to find a safe place for Liu Zining to sit down and treat her wound.
The two entered the bedroom. It was clear that no one had lived there for a long time. The moment the door was opened, the smell of mold made Qin Liu cough violently.
After placing Liu Zining on the bed, Qin Liu intended to open the window first.
However, just then, footsteps suddenly came from outside the room door.
It seemed like something had entered the room.
These footsteps were heavy, seeming to be the kind produced by an adult male.
Could it be… Liu Haoyu?
