Chapter 44: Evil Magic to Extend Life
I find it a bit hard to understand what Brother Fei said.
Although I know that if I buy a house directly from the owner, I can save the agency fee.
But without the help of an intermediary, it is difficult to predict what will happen in the transaction, and there is no middleman to help mediate.
In other words, Brother Fei will lose a lot of protection because he did not find an agent.
"So...where is the owner of the house now?" asked my cousin anxiously.
"The owner is a very old grandmother. She is selling the house because she doesn't want to stay in this city anymore and wants to go back to her hometown to retire. Her hometown is very far away and it is estimated that she can no longer be found now."
Brother Fei was paying attention to our expressions as he spoke.
After hearing this, I felt terrible.
There must be something wrong with the old lady that Brother Fei mentioned.
"So why did you call the police?" Brother Fei still didn't understand.
My cousin looked at me and said that he was the oldest person in our team, and I thought it might be better for him to talk about this matter, so I signaled with my eyes to let him explain the situation to Brother Fei.
"There is a wall in your room where there should be bodies hidden. And you keep hearing children crying, so it is very likely that the bodies hidden there are those children's."
My cousin tried his best to explain the situation to Brother Fei in easy-to-understand words.
But no matter what, Brother Fei is just an ordinary person who works hard. He simply cannot understand why we are so suspicious.
"Excuse me...what do you mean by 'those'?"
But Brother Fei was smart and he immediately grasped the key point of his cousin's words.
"You are quite smart, that means there is more than one." My cousin curled the corners of his lips. This is his habit.
“More than... one?!” Brother Fei got furious when he heard what his cousin said.
"And there is one thing I don't know if you can understand. I think that old lady is not simple. She did this for a purpose. You may not understand this purpose, but it really exists."
That old lady must be a believer in witchcraft.
I once read in a book that some sorcery can actually help prolong a person's life.
But whether it can really prolong life is unknown.
However, some people who are desperate will try any possible cure and will even believe their lies.
And this old lady is obviously one of them.
"Do you remember how old that old lady was?" I asked Brother Fei.
He thought about it and his face suddenly turned pale.
"She looks like she's in her eighties or nineties, but strangely enough, she's very strong. But now that you mentioned that, I suddenly noticed something was wrong. That old lady always has a very strange fragrance on her body, a fragrance that makes people dizzy if they smell it too much, and her face is very white, just like a paper doll..."
As Brother Fei described the situation, he couldn't help shaking like a sieve.
It can be seen from his behavior that he is very scared.
Maybe it’s not fear, but more of fear.
"You mean... if she kills enough people, she can successfully extend her life?"
Faced with Brother Fei’s question, I don’t know how to answer.
My cousin looked at me, sighed, and turned back to Brother Fei and said, "How is that possible?"
"If you can prolong your life by killing people, then there will only be people being killed in this world, and no one will die of old age. Only a fool would believe them!"
The more he talked , the angrier my cousin became.
"Then what should we do now? How can we verify this matter?" Brother Fei was so scared that he was at a loss.
Actually, I can understand that if this happened to me, I would probably have been scared to death.
After all, I had worked hard to earn money and was thinking of buying a house in the city, but I didn't expect that what I bought was a haunted house.
Not only that, this haunted house also caused his wife to have a miscarriage to some extent, which is something no one can bear.
"How about this, it's daybreak now. You go find the renovation company and have them tear down the wall. If there's really something inside, we'll call the police. If not, we won't charge you for it."
My cousin touched his chin. This was the only solution he could think of.
Brother Fei did not dare to delay, so he said "oh" and went to the property management to apply for permission to start construction.
"Gentlemen and Miss Dong Jing, let's go out and have something to eat first. The construction team is here and they are starting to tear down the wall. The living room will be covered in dust by then."
Following Brother Fei's arrangement, we followed him downstairs.
I was planning to just eat something in the community, but before I even walked out of the elevator, Brother Fei's cell phone rang.
"What?! Okay, then don't move, we'll go up right away!"
Brother Fei looked nervous. As soon as he hung up the phone, he immediately dialed another one.
"Hey, Officer Chen, please come over to the fifteenth floor of Building Three of Jinbi Garden. We have demolished the wall, and the construction team told me that there is something inside. Please come over quickly!"
Brother Fei was shaking all over as he spoke.
As soon as he hung up the phone, he looked at us, his face was pale and his eyes were red.
"You three are truly gods. The leader of the engineering team said that the wall is empty and there are exactly ten dead bodies of children inside."
When I heard what Brother Fei said, my whole brain exploded.
Although I had speculated about it long before, when I really had to face these things, I couldn't help but .
We returned to the fifteenth floor, and the entire floor was covered in dust.
The workers from the construction team stood by the door, five big men, all with grim faces.
When the captain saw us coming, he quickly stuffed the deposit that Brother Fei had given him into his hand and said he would not dare to continue demolishing the wall no matter what.
"That's it for now, Mr. Fei. I've refunded your money. If there's nothing else, we'll leave."
Having said that, the captain has already left with his men.
I ignored their dispute and went straight into the room to take a look.
This scene really scared me.
Those children didn't look very big, and they were all placed separately in glass tanks.
I guess what's soaked in there is formalin, but for some reason, the smell still leaks out.
Moreover, the children were killed in a very cruel way, their stomachs were ripped open and their intestines were exposed.
Not only that, the children's eyeballs were very large, and it was obvious that they were killed while they were conscious.
Could this person really do this?! And he is an old man! This person is too cruel!
I watched, clenched my fists, and was extremely angry!
