Chapter 6: Mother and Daughter

Lin Quying had just taken a bite of noodles with his chopsticks, when he heard Cao Zhong's words, the noodles immediately fell back inside the bowl! He rushed to the front of the binoculars in an arrow step, and his eyes came up to take a look …… However, inside the room next to the woman called Nie Han, there was nothing. And in the other rooms, there was no woman in red either. He turned back, rushed to Cao Zhong, said, "You …… you looked so long, see what she looks like?" "You, what are you so excited about?" Cao Zhong immediately started to brainstorm, "I say, Ah Lin, wouldn't it be possible that you have a crush on that woman, so you're using binoculars to spy on the opposite side?" "What nonsense!" Lin Kuying waved his hand and said, "Your imagination is too rich, isn't it? No, did you see what she looks like?" "Also …… you didn't even see what it looks like, it's impossible to have a crush on each other. Her room, quite dark, across the building just back from the sun, so the light is not too full, did not see what look like. Later I noticed a woman in the next room, quite good-looking, I was mainly looking at her." Lin Quying thought carefully, but still shook his head, thinking that he should just be overthinking it. The Blood Letter Mission or whatever should be a fictionalized plot from a novel, how could it happen in reality? It must be bullshit! There was no way that the book written by Black Ghost Fire was modeled after reality? That couldn't be! "That, that ……" Just as Lin Quying was still swallowing, Cao Zhong on the other hand had already picked up his chopsticks and feasted. "Ugh, is this that what, that old altar pickled beef noodle where someone imitated my face?" Cao Zhong just ate a few mouthfuls, suddenly realized that Lin Quying was not moving his chopsticks and said, "I say, Ah Lin, what's that one of yours? Braised beef noodles?" "Ah …… yes ……" "I've always thought it was strange since I was a kid, why instant noodles always have such a big piece of beef on the package, but in reality it's only a tiny bit inside the seasoning packet. This is not a typical false advertising! Alas, if you don't eat it, let me try this braised beef noodles as well?" "You, feel free." Lin Quying went back to the binoculars and took a look, while inside that window, one could still only see the dresser. Since there were no lights on, it was indeed very dark, and he couldn't see the inside clearly. He went on to take a look at that window on the 10th floor, and at this moment, the person who was covered inside the quilt was still motionless, only revealing a pair of feet, and not a single change could be seen. And this scene, really let Lin Duying feel a little creepy. It's been so long, actually still masked inside the quilt? It's already noon, even if it's bedridden, it's not possible to maintain the sleeping position of the quilt covering your head all the time, right? Wouldn't you feel suffocated and have trouble breathing? The more he looked, the weirder he felt. At this time, Lin Quying suddenly had a puzzling thought: the building across the street, more than one window was in this weird condition inside, what about the other windows? So, he aimed his binoculars at yet another window, which was on the 11th floor, the house next door to Nie Han's room on the other side. Inside this window, on the other hand, it was empty, and nothing unusual could be seen. The binoculars then moved to the window directly above Nie Han's head. Immediately afterward, Lin Quying saw a child with his back turned to him, riding on top of a one-person high wooden horse, swaying from side to side. Judging from the back, that child was at most five or six years old. This should have been a normal sight, but at this moment, Lin Quying had some strange thoughts. He stared carefully at the back of the child riding the wooden horse, and at this moment, he couldn't even tell if it was a boy or a girl. "I say, Ah Lin, if you don't eat again, I'll finish the two bowls of noodles together!" "Fine, you, you eat it there!" A horrible speculation arose in Lin Quying: would this child, like the man under the quilt, continue to ride this wooden horse without stopping? This speculation sounded unimaginable, but Lin Quying was now really thinking that way. At this time, he always felt that it was no longer strange for anything strange to happen. Just at this time, he suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder! "Ah!" He was so startled that he hurriedly turned his head back, and the person behind him was naturally Cao Zhong. "Holy shit," Cao Zhong was instead taken aback by Lin Quying and said, "What are you doing staring at me with that look of having eaten Shang?" "Nothing …… nothing ……" "Lin Quying, is your kid possessed?" "No, why did you just tap me on the shoulder? Didn't I say you could eat the noodles if you wanted to?" "I just, just saw that you seem to have some red marks on the back of your neck, it looks like eczema, so I'm just asking you. You kid, your eyes are wider than eggs! Do you think you're a salty egg superman?" "Red marks? It's probably because your skin got worse after sleeping too late yesterday, right? It's fine, as long as you can't get a shot of it during the live broadcast anyway." "Oh ……" Lin Quying didn't realize that the mark on the back of his neck was already much lighter than it was in the morning, otherwise, Cao Zhong would have to be shocked. "Forget it, let's eat first." "Alright, I left half of the noodles for you, if you think it's too little, cook another packet." "It's okay, I ordered a pizza this morning and I'm pretty full." He walked to the computer desk, picked up his chopsticks, and quickly swept away the braised beef noodles inside. Immediately afterward, he thought about it and said to Cao Zhong, "Cao Zhong, let me ask you, do you believe that …… evil spirits exist in this world?" At this time, Cao Zhong was drinking the can of beer he had just taken while eating instant noodles, and when he suddenly heard this sentence, he froze. "What? You're planning to do a live psychic broadcast?" Cao Zhong instantly became interested, "Did you watch that Korean horror movie 'Kun Chi Rock'? In it, it's about a bunch of death-defying stickmen running to a mental hospital to do a live broadcast, and as a result, a whole bunch of evil spirits in there killed all the people on the air." "That I really don't know ……" "Doing this kind of live broadcast, you have to be careful, if you're not careful, you're doing death!" However, Lin Quying was in deep thought, and then, he slapped his head. "Right! I can do this kind of live broadcast ah! It just so happens that I decided to do an outdoor live broadcast anyway, why don't I just try this?" Cao Zhong froze, he had thought that Lin Quying was joking, but he didn't realize that he seemed to be serious. "Holy shit, you called me here to ask me to help you do this kind of thing?" Lin Quying was thinking about reality at this time. Although he finally had advertisers coming to him now, there was still a big difference between his own fan count and those top anchors. And by doing this kind of exciting live broadcast, if there is really something unclean …… then won t his fan number just skyrocket? At that time, advertisers would definitely come in droves! No one would be too short for something like money! "Cao Zhong, ah, that, how about, you help me?" "How much will you pay me then?" Cao Zhong poured another mouthful of beer and rubbed his hands together, "Pro-brothers, clear accounts. You want me to be your bodyguard, right? Then we have to talk about the price." "Okay, price is not a problem. Don't worry!" Cao Zhong was still unsure whether Lin Quying was serious or not. Seeing Lin Quying say this, Cao Zhong immediately laughed out loud and said, "Okay, okay, okay! Then let's talk about it! Oh, right, do you have any cigarettes? We smoke low-grade cigarettes, surely you have high-grade cigarettes here?" "Yes, I'll get them for you." He gave Cao Zhong a packet of Yellow Crane Tower, and even helped him personally light the cigarettes. After lighting the cigarettes, he walked to the binoculars again, intending to observe again. Exactly, can you rely on the opposite building to get a psychic live broadcast out? At this time he was afraid and indeed afraid, but the idea of wanting to make money, also to a certain extent prevailed. And look in the binoculars, the child is no longer sitting on the wooden horse, but sitting next to the wooden horse, still with his back to the window. And at that moment, a middle-aged woman, sitting on a sofa, was braiding that child's hair. There didn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary. "Am I thinking too much?" Lin Quying didn't know for a moment whether to hope for an abnormality across the street or not. The building across the street completely inspired curiosity within him. At this time, he continued to pull the telescope lens closer and carefully observed the middle-aged woman and the child. Since they were wearing braids, it should be a girl. From the looks of it, it should be a mother and daughter. "Eh?" Then, he discovered something bizarre. At this moment, that mother and daughter were much closer to the window than the wooden horse, and with a closer lens, upon closer inspection, he realized that the bodies of these two, were covered in water, and the water was dripping and spilling down continuously drop by drop!
