Chapter 50 Chapter Twelve

"Before I was with you, I was actually married once." Finally, Gray said with difficulty. "You... have been married?" Di Li asked in surprise, "So, you lied to me when you said you were single?" "Forgive me, Di Li. You are so young and beautiful, I don't want you to think that you are married to a second-married man. So, I lied to you." Gray said with his head down. "So... where is your wife? Where is she now?" "She left me a year ago." "Are you...divorced?" "No, Dilly, you don't understand me," Gray said. "She... died."

Di Li opened her mouth slightly, and then asked, "How did she die?" Gray frowned tightly and sighed, his head drooped, as if he was caught in a sea of ​​painful memories. "Her name is Zhu Dan. I met her when I was twenty-five years old, when she was a bank clerk. We dated for two and a half years, got married, and then, lived in this house. Actually, Kaz is her dog , that is, it was brought from the beginning of living in this house. Originally, our life was peaceful and happy—" Having said that, Gray stopped, his eyes full of sadness. "And then?" Dilly asked.

Gray raised his head, took a deep breath, and continued, "Zhu Dan has always been born with heart disease, but we don't mind too much, because the doctor said that as long as he is not too stimulated or overly frightened, it is not easy to get sick. , In addition, she is always prepared with quick-acting heart-relief pills and the like. So, we lived in this house for a year, and nothing happened. " "Until one afternoon, when I came home from get off work and opened the door, I saw a terrible scene—Zhu Dan lying on the floor of the living room, his hands tightly pressing his heart, his face distorted in pain. I hurried forward, but It was found that her whole body was cold and stiff, and she was already...dead."

Having said that, Gray covered his face with his hands and sighed in pain. "What... did she die of? A heart attack?" Dilly asked eagerly. Gray nodded: "After the doctor arrived, she was diagnosed to have died of a heart attack." Di Li showed a puzzled expression: "But, what caused her heart attack?" Gray shook his head and said: "I don't know, I checked the house carefully afterward, and found nothing unusual - I don't understand, she has no reason to be greatly stimulated or frightened! How could she have a sudden heart attack Woolen cloth?"

"What did the doctor say?" "Doctors also believe that Zhu Dan suffered from some kind of great psychological stimulation that caused her sudden onset, but they also don't understand where this stimulation came from—I think only Zhu Dan himself knows the answer to this question— —but she's dead." After a few seconds of silence, Dilly said, "You once had a wife, and she died in this house. But you don't really know the real reason for her death, do you?" Gray stared at Di Li: "You can say that." After pondering for a while, Di Li said: "Grey, let's leave her alone for the time being as to what kind of fright or stimulation Zhu Dan received to get sick and die. What does it matter if you call at fifteen minutes? Also, why were you so frightened when you opened the door just now?"

Hearing Di Li's question, Gray's whole body trembled again, and his face that had already returned to normal began to turn pale again. Dilly kept watching Gray, waiting for his answer. Finally, Gray found his vocal cords in the trembling, and said: "Zhu Dan...she has a habit for many years. This is her biological clock-that is, every night at about 3:15, she will go to Going to the bathroom once. When she lived in this house, she went to the bathroom on the second floor...and Katz was in that bathroom, and every time he saw the hostess, he would scream happily for a while. After Zhu Dan went to the bathroom, he always He would pat Katz on the head lightly, and Katz immediately calmed down. The whole process took about five or six minutes... Dilly, do you want me to continue?"

Gray asked this because Di Li in front of her was already pale at this moment. "My God!" Dilly opened her eyes and breathed rapidly, "According to what you said, Kaz started barking at 3:15 every night, and then stopped after a few minutes...Could it be... ..." "Di Li!" Gray suddenly shouted, "Don't say it, don't say it any more." Di Li shuddered a bit, she looked at the terrified Gray in front of her, and understood what he and herself were thinking at this moment. After a few minutes, Di Li asked, "Grey, did you live in this house after Zhu Dan died?"

"I... lived there for a while. But then, as I told you, I was not used to living in such a big house alone, and I wanted to be closer to the unit, so I moved to that small rented apartment inside." "Did any of these weird things happen when you lived here alone? Does Katz bark at night?" Gray shook his head and said, "No, it never happened when I lived alone. It was quiet every night." Di Li lowered her head and frowned tightly: "Mrs. An also said that Katz wouldn't bark at night when she was at her house... So, these visions only appeared after I came?"

"Di Li, what do you want to say?" Dilly turned her head and looked at Gray, her body trembling: "This ghost... is targeting me."
