Chapter 6 Chapter 4 The Story of the Seagull
The wind howled miserably at dusk, I was sitting in the car looking at the ever-changing scenery outside the window, but I was in a different mood.There are so many mysteries in this matter that I really can't guess what seems to be the truth.
"Why do you want to check the past of the church?" Yaojia, who couldn't hold back the doubts in her heart, pushed me and interrupted my thinking.Jame, who was driving, regained his energy immediately, and shouted anxiously, "That's right! Did you find something?"
"Hmm... I don't know if you have heard of such a test question. It is one of the external test questions of a certain world-renowned university in a certain year." I didn't answer their questions directly, but still looked out of the window and said lightly: " The test question tells the story of a man who came to an island, which is a tourist destination. The man accidentally ate a piece of seagull meat, and then he killed his companion and committed suicide in grief. Then the test question asked the man why Suicide..."
"What does this have to do with that church?!" Yaojia curled her lips dissatisfied.
I smiled and said: "It's boring anyway, let's play this game. You guess the reason for his suicide, I only answer yes or no, in order to ease the difficulty, I will give you some tips on some special questions .”
"Interesting!" Jame said enthusiastically, "Is there any problem with seagull meat?"
I said, "No."
"That must be a problem with the tourist attraction." Yaojia said with an affirmative expression.
"No." I shook my head.
"He's terminally ill?"
"no."
"He wanted to commit suicide?"
"Haha, no."
"..."
"........."
Ten minutes later, amid all their wild guesses, my neck finally started to ache. "What! Could it be that guy committed suicide because the seagull meat was so unpalatable that he regretted eating it." Yaojia murmured, and finally burst out laughing.
With a thought in his mind, Jame suddenly asked, "Where was that tourist holy place used to be?"
I glanced at him with admiration and said, "It used to be a deserted island."
"Then... he has been to that deserted island before?" Jame asked eagerly.
"yes."
"How many people are there?"
"Three."
"Is it two men and one woman?"
"yes."
"Ah..." Jame's whole body shook, and he almost stood up in excitement.
"You figured it out?" I asked with a smile.He looked back at me and nodded slowly.Yao Jia listened to Jame and I's quick answers in bewilderment, and asked angrily, "I don't understand what you are talking about. Xiao Ye, what's the answer?? Tell me!"
I stretched, took a deep look at her, and began to say the standard answer to the test question:
"Actually, before that deserted island became a tourist destination, the man and his friend and lover were trapped on that deserted island because of a shipwreck. Because there was no food, the three of them starved and lingered. One day, he found that his girlfriend had disappeared, so he asked his friend. His friend said sadly that his girlfriend fell into the sea and was swept away by the undercurrent. He also said that he was afraid of his sadness, so he kept it a secret Him. A few days later, when he was almost starving to death, his buddy brought him some meat and told him it was seagull meat, beckoning him to eat it. He didn't doubt his best friend. Then they were saved Yes. Many years later, he came to this island again, and he was accompanied by his former friend who was in trouble with him. At this time, the deserted island has become a holy place for tourists. He nostalgicly made a plate to save himself. He came to eat the seagull meat that had died, but found that the taste was different from what he had eaten before. At that moment, he understood everything... At that time, what he was eating was the seagull, but the meat of his girlfriend, who was more important than his own life A woman, the woman he loved most in his life. So he killed his best friend, and then committed suicide in grief."
There was silence in the car, and no one spoke for a long time.
"Now you understand why I am eager to know the situation of that church before?" I said slowly.
"What a tragic story..." Yaojia let out a breath slowly.
'Who knows?Maybe there was a more tragic story in that church before. ' I looked out the window and thought to myself.
I have been to Yao's house in Canada many times before, but this time it was a different feeling.It is located in a suburb not far from Vancouver, but I heard that the land price has plummeted again recently, but even though it is surprisingly cheap, there are still very few people living there.It seems that this is another miracle. Because the weeds along the way were too deep to drive through, we had to walk the rest of the way.The house was still deserted, Yao Jia unlocked it, and I was the first to go in.The furnishings inside are just like the last time I came here, without any major changes, but the obvious and not obvious places have already been covered with dust. "Are you sure sister Xiaojie's diary is still here?" I asked Yaojia beside me.She said affirmatively: "My father was afraid that my mother would fall in love with the scene. Since sister Xiaojie left, she locked her room, and no one has touched the things in it." I suddenly remembered something and asked, "Then why did you move? It's also because you're afraid of getting emotional??" Yaojia was taken aback, shook her head and said: "I don't know. Two weeks after my sister left, my father sent me to a relative's house in Monte Hobb. When I came back, the family had already moved. I explained that I was afraid that my mother would be sad when she saw the things in the house...but...but I always feel that there is something inside!" I nodded, yes, the little girl Yaojia has the same doubts as me.I'm sure there must be something ulterior about Uncle Yao's move.Alas, what a headache, what on earth must he hide? ! Pushing away sister Xiaojie's room, a faint breeze came over.We went in and found clues according to our division of labor.As early as in the car, I told them that the purpose of this trip was to find two things.One is sister Xiaojie’s diary——Sister Xiaojie has been used to writing a diary every day since she was a child, so if it goes well, she should be able to find some clues and even all the confusion about this incident.The second is the things that sister Xiaojie took away in that town when she went to Seattle for the last time.Although we don't know what that is, one thing is for sure, it is definitely the key! I slowly searched on the bookshelf, pulling out a book from time to time and flipping through it casually.For some reason, I always have a very uncoordinated feeling when I enter this room. This feeling has been lingering in my heart for a long time, but I can't find any words to describe it, let alone why this room will give me that feeling. A sense of incongruity. 'Never mind it, let's talk after finishing business! 'I shook my head to speed up my search, and finally found a dozen thick diaries at the bottom of a drawer.I patted the cover of the latest book and turned it over. The narrations in the diary are just like ordinary people, nothing more than the trivia of that day, etc. There is nothing special, but most of them are written in English.Because the privacy of the deceased is involved, I will extract the information about this incident and summarize it. First of all, sister Xiaojie always disappeared for half a day every time she went to Seattle. According to her account, she went to the church we used for calling spirits.At that time, the church had not been burned down, and she liked the quiet and mysterious atmosphere there very much, so she always spent half a day in prayer and confession.This explains why Jones would find her stuff in that church. It is worth noting that the last diary, in order to better clarify the questions arising from this diary, I put it intact below: On Tuesday, June 19, the weather will be cloudy with continuous rain Back to Seattle.Come to think of it, it's been years since I've been here.Dad's driving skills have become excessive again, and the three-hour highway almost made me pass out!The light rain is still falling, and it seems that my jet lag has not turned back because of last week's trip to Germany.Ha, if Xiao Ye finds out, he will laugh at me again... Xiao Ye, I haven't heard from him for a long time.I don't know what happened to the snot-nosed ghost who was always clamoring for me.I really miss him.But...it should be fun to be his wife...Damn it, why would I think about this! In the afternoon, I went to the church again in the rain, but I didn't expect it to be burned down.well!For the first time, I understood the subtle meaning of the word "things, people, things, things".I don't know why, but I feel a little lost in my heart.By the way, I found a bauble in the church, stuck in a gap in a fallen wall.I don't know who was so cruel and damaged her so badly. This little gadget should have been cute in the past, although it makes people feel ugly because it is broken, but I still can't put it down.It's like... like she has life!So I put her in my handbag and took it home. During dinner, my father and I had a quarrel.I don't know why I strongly want to leave this place, and I am a little stubborn.My father was a little surprised, and I took a taxi back to Vancouver in a fit of anger. ... I really don't know what's wrong with me. For the first time in my life, I have such a strong hatred. I really hate that place, that small town... I wish I could destroy it all!
The diary stopped abruptly here.Until the car accident two months later, sister Xiaojie did not write any more articles.This is normal for some people (such as me) who use a diary as a weekly, monthly or even yearly diary, but if the reference is a person who has never kept a diary in 11 years, anyone will Feel strange! After Jame and Yaojia finished reading the diary one after another, I asked, "You should have found some doubts and clues in the last one, too." The little girl Yaojia smiled at me secretly and said: "I just found out that my sister likes you so much. Alas, it's a pity. If you propose to her again, she might not hesitate to marry you!" Jame also came to join in the fun, smiling ambiguously: "Hey, you Really, every two entries in the diary will mention your name. Hey, why don't you teach me some secrets. How can I make women follow me wholeheartedly." "Stop making trouble!" I glared at them angrily, but there was a trace of unknown pain in my heart.Those two people managed to get serious and exchanged the doubts they found in the diary. "I just thought it was weird how the diary ended," Jame said.And Yaojia supported her head with her hands in distress and said, "I just think my sister treats you..." "Xiaojia!" I roared angrily. "Okay, okay, I won't say anything. There's no need to be so cruel to others!" Yaojia pretended to be wronged and said to me: "You should already have a plan in mind, right. Just say it, and we will all listen." "Oh..." I sighed, sometimes I really can't do anything about this little girl: "Which clue in the diary do you think is the most important?" "Of course it's the gadget my sister brought back." Yaojia said seriously. Jame nodded with a frustrated expression: "But when she mentioned the thing she brought back, she was always a little vague. What's even more annoying is that she didn't describe what it was at all!" Yaojia said bitterly: "My sister is really too, she is so subtle when she shouldn't be subtle. It seems that the clue is broken again!" "You are wrong. In fact, what it is has been mentioned in the diary." I smiled sinisterly. "What???!" They both yelled in surprise at the same time. "Did you find any contradictions in the last diary entry?" The two looked at me blankly and shook their heads cooperatively.Satisfied with my vanity, I laughed, and first pointed to the line "as if she had life" in the diary and said: "From here, it can be seen that the things picked by sister Xiaojie should be lifeless. But in her In several places in this diary when referring to the gadget, the third person She and the third person pronoun her are used instead of It. What does this prove? Simple , one is that the thing is a female, and the other is that it must be a human-shaped thing, and people can recognize it as a female at a glance. That's why I used these two words unconsciously." Both of them groaned at the same time.Yaojia's whole body shook slightly, and then she asked with a strange expression: "How do you know it must have a human form? What if it is in the shape of a kitten or a puppy?" I asked back: "A kitten and puppy are walking on the street. Without professional knowledge, can you tell its gender at a glance?" Yao Jia surprisingly did not refute, but just lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.I asked strangely; "Did you think of anything?" She froze for a moment, then shook her head resolutely. I frowned and said nothing more. Jame said excitedly: "It's that simple. If you only need to check the relationship between this humanoid object, the church and the rich man, the scope will be much smaller. Alright! We'll go back right away!" "By the way, did anyone see anything like this when we searched the house just now?" I asked.They shook their heads.Yao Jia said: "My sister always puts it in her handbag before her body, never leaves it, and never lets anyone touch it. Maybe she lost it in a car accident." I was silent, and was the first to walk out of this room that made me sad. Walking into the living room, Yaojia suddenly coughed a few times, and said angrily: "Ahem...there is so much dust here, I should find someone to clean it." My whole body was shocked, and I grabbed her hand and shouted: "You...what did you just say?" Yao Jia was startled by me, and said a little at a loss: "I, I just said that there is a lot of dust here ..." correct!I finally understood why I had that uncoordinated feeling when I walked into sister Xiaojie's room just now... That room was so tidy and clean.Although there is still some old dust in the conspicuous places, it gives people a feeling of being deliberately sprinkled there. Walking out the door, I looked at the western sky and said, "It looks like it's going to rain. I remember there is a youth hostel not far from here. Let's stay there for one night and go back tomorrow." Haruka and Jame looked at each other and shrugged.Apparently they didn't understand the direct connection between rain and driving home.Of course, because they don't know, I don't intend to tell them a question and an idea I had just 2 minutes ago. Obviously sister Xiaojie's room is often cleaned, but who and why?What is her (his) relationship with sister Xiaojie?Was there a connection to her death? ! Tonight I decided to visit this old house at night. Maybe, I can solve the answer to the mysterious death of sister Xiaojie...
Late at night, the clouds are high and the wind is low.There is no starlight.It was a proper day with a few drops of rain.I got up quietly, making sure I didn't disturb them, and then slowly slipped out the door. The old house is still quiet, a little scary.Shocked, I came to the back of the house and climbed along the air pipe to sister Xiaojie's room on the second floor.When the day came, I took the opportunity to leave a window ajar. I successfully climbed into the room, but I didn't know what to do.First of all, I don't know if that person will come tonight, and then there is another weird idea hidden in my mind.That idea was too inconsistent with my scientific thinking, so I compulsively suppressed it at the bottom of my consciousness. Or find a place to hide and wait for that person to appear.I made up my mind and looked around for a place to hide.Although it was late at night, the room was not too dark to see anything.While looking around, I suddenly found that there seemed to be something under the pillow on the bed, so I took it out casually. Following the dim light coming in from the window, I could see clearly that it was a photo.There are two people in the photo, very close arm in arm standing by a large lake.The turquoise lake water has static ripples in the breeze, setting off the sweet smile of the girl on the right.Such a familiar scene, although everything is static in the photos, but it caused turbulent waves in my heart. That was the only two-person photo of my sister Xiaojie and I. It was taken with an instant camera. I didn’t expect her to keep it until now... The pain in my heart became more and more intense with the rage caused by the photos. I easily abandoned the golden saying that a man has tears and never flicks them lightly, and threw himself on the bed and cried bitterly, completely forgetting the purpose of coming here.Until this moment, I didn't know how important she was to me.If my feelings for Xueying are liking, then Yaojie is madly in love.Falling in love to the point where I don't even know... Tired of crying, I fell asleep on the bed in a groggy state. I do not know how long it has been.Half-dream and half-awake, I felt something caressing my face. As I woke up, I found that it was a pair of delicate, smooth, soft hands with a little bit of warmth. who is it?whose hand?But it's so comfortable... But the hateful thing is that my consciousness immediately reminded me that I should still be in a house that no one has lived in for a long time.I couldn't help but shivered, and I immediately woke up. The rain... I don't know when it stopped.The faint moonlight came in from the window, which made me clearly see a woman sitting beside the bed.She was staring at me deeply, while helping me cover the quilt, while stroking my face with her hands. That girl turned out to be Annie, no!wrong!I always feel something is wrong.Her eyes gave me a familiar feeling, so loving and tender.It should not be revealed to people who have only seen two sides. Suddenly an idea rushed into my mind.I sat up uncontrollably, and asked in a trembling voice, "You...you are sister Xiaojie?!" She didn't answer, just looked at me silently, and said in a reproachful tone: "Xiao Ye, you sleep without a quilt. You will catch a cold!" is her!It's Xiaojie... Tears flowed down again.In this moment, in this moment alone, rationality breaks down.I hugged her tightly in my arms. "Xiao Ye, don't do this. I'm using Annie's body. You will cause trouble to her." Xiaojie panted, but she didn't show any sign of struggle. "No! I don't want to! I will never let go." I said firmly. She sighed faintly. Time passed in this silence. "Xiao Ye, leave here and go back to China. Don't worry about that thing anymore!" After a long time, she whispered in my arms.I froze for a moment, and my sanity returned. "You know my character, let me let go of the half-solved puzzle? I... can't do it." Letting go of her, I sorted out my chaotic thoughts and replied.She sighed again: "Oh, I was afraid of your investigation, so I made a scene in this room and drove my parents away...I didn't expect it to be the opposite. It aroused your curiosity instead. I really do fool!" "Ah! So it's you!" I stared at her with my mouth wide open.No wonder Uncle Yao is moving, and no wonder the area is deserted.It turned out to be haunted!How stupid of me not to have thought of such a simple reason in the first place!But... Sister Xiaojie is going to scare people, such a gentle Xiaojie... Thinking of this, a smile appeared on my heavy face. "Xiaoye, what are you thinking?" Xiaojie asked strangely.I giggled strangely: "I'm just thinking about how my sister looks when she's scary, and whether she's pretty." She froze for a moment, and also smiled, but then became melancholy again: "Listen to me, get out of here, Xiao Ye. Don't be stubborn. Her resentment and anger are not something ordinary people can bear! Please don't worry about it anymore!" I asked strangely: "What the hell is that?" Sister Xiaojie shook her head and said, "I can't say." I snorted and said, "I know you picked up a puppet from the abandoned church that day. I'll find the rest of the clues myself!" Sister Xiaojie was shocked and exclaimed, "You...how did you Know?!" 'Is it really a puppet? ! 'I secretly applauded my bet. The closest thing to a humanoid but lifeless thing is a puppet.I can imagine it, but I'm not always sure.But now it is finally confirmed by Sister Xiaojie.I said lightly: "Actually, I already know about the same. I just need to solve the mystery. Can you tell me the answer?!" Sister Xiaojie was about to cry. She shook her head slowly and said, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but that I can't. I can't say anything about her. No...it's that I can't tell you at all." !" "How could this be!" I asked in shock.Sister Xiaojie suddenly held her head in pain. She pushed me away and said intermittently: "She has already started to act. Xiaoye, promise me to leave that small town and take my family with me. The farther away the better... promise me……" The next moment, she and Annie and I fell into a dead silence again... 'Hmph, sister Xiaojie, no matter what that thing is, I will definitely avenge you!This is my night silent promise! 'In my mind, this thought that has never dissipated is stronger than ever!

Following the dim light coming in from the window, I could see clearly that it was a photo.There are two people in the photo, very close arm in arm standing by a large lake.The turquoise lake water has static ripples in the breeze, setting off the sweet smile of the girl on the right.Such a familiar scene, although everything is static in the photos, but it caused turbulent waves in my heart. That was the only two-person photo of my sister Xiaojie and I. It was taken with an instant camera. I didn’t expect her to keep it until now... The pain in my heart became more and more intense with the rage caused by the photos. I easily abandoned the golden saying that a man has tears and never flicks them lightly, and threw himself on the bed and cried bitterly, completely forgetting the purpose of coming here.Until this moment, I didn't know how important she was to me.If my feelings for Xueying are liking, then Yaojie is madly in love.Falling in love to the point where I don't even know... Tired of crying, I fell asleep on the bed in a groggy state. I do not know how long it has been.Half-dream and half-awake, I felt something caressing my face. As I woke up, I found that it was a pair of delicate, smooth, soft hands with a little bit of warmth. who is it?whose hand?But it's so comfortable... But the hateful thing is that my consciousness immediately reminded me that I should still be in a house that no one has lived in for a long time.I couldn't help but shivered, and I immediately woke up. The rain... I don't know when it stopped.The faint moonlight came in from the window, which made me clearly see a woman sitting beside the bed.She was staring at me deeply, while helping me cover the quilt, while stroking my face with her hands. That girl turned out to be Annie, no!wrong!I always feel something is wrong.Her eyes gave me a familiar feeling, so loving and tender.It should not be revealed to people who have only seen two sides. Suddenly an idea rushed into my mind.I sat up uncontrollably, and asked in a trembling voice, "You...you are sister Xiaojie?!" She didn't answer, just looked at me silently, and said in a reproachful tone: "Xiao Ye, you sleep without a quilt. You will catch a cold!" is her!It's Xiaojie... Tears flowed down again.In this moment, in this moment alone, rationality breaks down.I hugged her tightly in my arms. "Xiao Ye, don't do this. I'm using Annie's body. You will cause trouble to her." Xiaojie panted, but she didn't show any sign of struggle. "No! I don't want to! I will never let go." I said firmly. She sighed faintly. Time passed in this silence. "Xiao Ye, leave here and go back to China. Don't worry about that thing anymore!" After a long time, she whispered in my arms.I froze for a moment, and my sanity returned. "You know my character, let me let go of the half-solved puzzle? I... can't do it." Letting go of her, I sorted out my chaotic thoughts and replied.She sighed again: "Oh, I was afraid of your investigation, so I made a scene in this room and drove my parents away...I didn't expect it to be the opposite. It aroused your curiosity instead. I really do fool!" "Ah! So it's you!" I stared at her with my mouth wide open.No wonder Uncle Yao is moving, and no wonder the area is deserted.It turned out to be haunted!How stupid of me not to have thought of such a simple reason in the first place!But... Sister Xiaojie is going to scare people, such a gentle Xiaojie... Thinking of this, a smile appeared on my heavy face. "Xiaoye, what are you thinking?" Xiaojie asked strangely.I giggled strangely: "I'm just thinking about how my sister looks when she's scary, and whether she's pretty." She froze for a moment, and also smiled, but then became melancholy again: "Listen to me, get out of here, Xiao Ye. Don't be stubborn. Her resentment and anger are not something ordinary people can bear! Please don't worry about it anymore!" I asked strangely: "What the hell is that?" Sister Xiaojie shook her head and said, "I can't say." I snorted and said, "I know you picked up a puppet from the abandoned church that day. I'll find the rest of the clues myself!" Sister Xiaojie was shocked and exclaimed, "You...how did you Know?!" 'Is it really a puppet? ! 'I secretly applauded my bet. The closest thing to a humanoid but lifeless thing is a puppet.I can imagine it, but I'm not always sure.But now it is finally confirmed by Sister Xiaojie.I said lightly: "Actually, I already know about the same. I just need to solve the mystery. Can you tell me the answer?!" Sister Xiaojie was about to cry. She shook her head slowly and said, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but that I can't. I can't say anything about her. No...it's that I can't tell you at all." !" "How could this be!" I asked in shock.Sister Xiaojie suddenly held her head in pain. She pushed me away and said intermittently: "She has already started to act. Xiaoye, promise me to leave that small town and take my family with me. The farther away the better... promise me……" The next moment, she and Annie and I fell into a dead silence again... 'Hmph, sister Xiaojie, no matter what that thing is, I will definitely avenge you!This is my night silent promise! 'In my mind, this thought that has never dissipated is stronger than ever!
