Forces of Temptation

Doing manual tasks is stumbling.

As Shen Jie said, Li Yinhang's hands-on ability is really not good.

Her brain: You learned.

Her hand: You fart.

But fortunately, like everyone else, she made a smooth transition and built a "home" without any unexpected troubles.

The next computer game task, the fitness coach quickly followed up.

The game mechanism of "Xiao Ming" is similar to eating chicken.

The level of the fitness coach game is quite limited, and it perfectly plays the exclusive operation of various elementary school levels.

Thin monkeys are mean and mean, and they play quite well as teammates.

He took advantage of the gap between the game readings and instructed the fitness coach to continue to do the task that he didn't have time to complete when he searched the computer just now - sweeping the nooks and crannies of the computer to find useful information.

Unfortunately, the computer was extremely clean.

Social software, no.

Trash, empty.

Family photo, no.

Browsing history, no.

Hidden folders, no.

Skinny monkey hates his ability to be useless, so angry he wants to smash the computer.

Seeing that the task handover time was coming, he had to leave the second bedroom, went to the children's room, picked up the diary, and began to record the day's itinerary truthfully.

The skinny monkey, who is used to holding a keyboard and mouse and has not held a pen for a long time, has a writing ability similar to that of a primary school student.

He bit the pen holder, thinking hard, what the **** is the word "cake" written in "I ate cake today".

Halfway through writing, the lawyer surnamed Yu, whom he hated the most, came in with a wheelchair, glanced at his half-finished work from behind, and let out a low laugh.

Skinny Monkey: "..."

Yu Tui said narrowly: "You imitate the elementary school students quite like you."

Skinny Monkey: “…”

In this situation, he said something good.

The skinny monkey rolled his eyes and whispered, "Why are you here?"

Yu Tuisi pulled the wheelchair with one hand, walked to the door of the children's room, raised his hand and pressed the door frame, and closed the door with a gesture.

Skinny Monkey: "...Hello!?"

Yu Tuisi smiled and said, "I have something to do."

On the door panel of the children's room, there are three or four traces drawn with a ruler, starting from 90 cm above the ground, and reaching a maximum of 128 cm. The date of the measurement is marked next to it.

Yu Tuisi discovered this detail during his nap.

Due to physical reasons, Yu Tuisi has a different field of vision from other people, and often has a far greater frequency of contact with the surrounding environment than normal people.

So he can find things that are difficult to capture from a normal person's point of view.

When Yu Tuisi was about to pull the wheelchair back, there was a regular knock on the door.

Yu Tuisi: "Please come in."

Nan Zhou came in: "What are you doing?"

Yu Tzu smiled.

In less than a day of getting along, Yu Tuisi discovered that although Nan Zhou had an unusually tall and indifferent face, he was like a cat, no matter what others did, he wanted to come over Take a look, touch.

"The gentleman is doing a good job of a child and keeping a diary obediently." Yu Tuisi said with a smile, "As for me, I just need a helper."

Good boy skinny monkey: "…"

After Nan Zhou squeezed in through the door, the children's room suddenly became cramped.

Skinny monkey didn't dare to say too much, so he had to pretend that these two people didn't exist.

Yu Tuisi touched the scale behind the door panel: "Look here."

Nan Zhou: "What is this?"

Yu Tui thought for a while: "Generally, there are at home, and it is used to measure the height of children."

Nan Zhou hummed: "Our family has never tested this."

Yu Tuisi didn't ask too much, and stroked the door panel: "Smell and see."

Nanzhou approached and took a sniff.

"All the doors in the house use this log paint. A log paint that exists in reality." Yu Tuisi said, "A few years ago, my wife and I gave the new house a new home. We chose this kind of paint when we were decorating, and we chose it and painted it together, but at the time it was only beautiful, and after installing it, we found that the smell of formaldehyde was very difficult to dissipate. After about two years, it was a little better.”

Nan Zhou understood what he meant: "This house has been renovated within two years?"

"It should be."

Yu Tuisi seems to be a good-natured senior, patiently listing his findings: "The wallpaper is not very new, but there is no sign of moisture. From the living room sofa cover Judging from the degree of wear and tear of the sofa cushion, and the situation of the sofa cushion, the sofa should also be replaced soon, one year, two years, it is possible."

Nan Zhou looked at the earliest height measurement date about 1 meter above the ground on the door panel.

It is one year and eight months after the last measurement date.

He reasonably speculated: "This house is a new house bought about two years ago?"

Yu Tuisi shook his head, stepped back the wheelchair again, pointed to the floor gap close to the wall, and said, "Look, there are beautiful seam marks here."

Nanzhou asked again: "What is a beautiful seam?"

Yu Tuisi: "…"

...He found that Nan Zhou's intelligence seemed to be a bit of a sword.

He explained carefully: "The tiles in the house have been used for a long time, and the gaps will become larger, discolored and collapsed, so the gaps need to be beautified... It should be regarded as a small home decoration."

Speaking, Yu Tusi leaned down and scratched the gap between the wall and the floor with his fingertips.

."

He took a little effort to break off a small section of the overflowing solidified object against the wall, and played it in the palm of his hand: "Look, the surface is filled with epoxy resin, but the bottom is stuck. A little latex-colored oil-based beautifier. It's two different beautifying materials."

Nanzhou came to the conclusion: "Have at least two beautiful sewing at home?"

"That's right." Yu Tuisi said, "It stands to reason that every time a beautiful seam is made, there must be a period of time, until the floor gap reappears to a certain degree of wear and tear, and then there is the meaning of beautiful seam again. ."

Yu Tuisi: "Therefore, either Xiaoming's family bought a second-hand house, or Xiaoming's family has lived here for a long time."

Nanzhou: "Hmm..."

Nan Zhou: "...So what?"

Yu Tuisi said: "You have to work, tear up the wallpaper here."

The skinny monkey who had been in the auditorium was startled: "...Hello!"

Yu Tuisi pressed his palm on him, motioning him not to speak, and gestured to Nan Zhou: "Don't tear too much first. Just tear the piece behind the door."

Nanzhou did not move.

Yu Tuisi: "Is there a problem?"

Nan Zhou did not shy away and said, "I was thinking, why did you let me tear it up."

Yu Tuisi fell silent.

Nan Zhou said, "Your teammate Chen Sufeng is outside, but you don't call him."

Nan Zhou added: "Even though you are sitting, it's not that you can't do things like tearing wallpaper."

After waiting for Yu Tuisi's response for a long time, Nan Zhou nodded clearly: "You are afraid that something will happen to you. You want to trick me."

Yu Tuisi sighed while holding his forehead.

He said that this guy is smart, and he is really taking the edge.

"Yes, I do have this concern." Yu Tuisi, who was dismantled, quickly adjusted his expression and said, "I have such a problem, it is easy to look ahead and think too much. It would be very difficult for me to make a decision to put me and my teammates at risk without the confidence of more than eight points."

Nanzhou remained unmoved.

Yu Tuisi continued: "However, if there is really this clue I deduced behind the door, if you tear open the wallpaper, the clue will be discovered by you, and the points will also be yours."

Nanzhou responded very quickly: "That's what you said."

Yu Tuisi: "..." He wondered if Nan Zhou had been waiting for him to say this.

He rocked the wheelchair backwards, giving Nanzhou enough space.

Nanzhou moved very neatly and tore off a piece of wallpaper behind the door.

Seven or eight traces of aging remain on the white walls wrapped in exquisite wallpaper.

It is also a scale for measuring height.

However, the earliest date indicated by the scale is twelve years ago.

The time span, height and height are also much higher than the newly marked scale behind the door panel.

【ding—】

【Congratulations to player Nan Zhou for collecting the clue "another family member". 】

After listening to the reward quietly, Nan Zhou raised his finger and brushed the handwriting of the marker that penetrated into the wall.

…As a bonus tip, another member of the family once lived.

A child who is much older than Xiao Ming.

Ta used to live in Xiao Ming's room and was pulled by his parents to stand behind the door, measuring his height again and again.

The last time Ta measured her height, she was 1.65 meters.

According to the basic standards and time span of normal children's physical growth, plus the year marked when Xiaoming's height was measured, this child should be about 20 years old now.

It's college age.

For the loss of 200 points, Yu Tuisi just shrugged.

Compared to the increase or decrease of points, he prefers to be safe and conservative.

He explained why he made the judgment that there are clues behind the door: "Judging from the hair, the third person who disappeared in the family is a woman. Then, she may be Xiao Ming's sister, or Maybe Xiao Ming's mother."

"I think, if the people in this apartment live long enough, or even renovated many times, then this children's room may have been lived in by my sister."

Here, he sighed softly: "...The perfume of Miss Coco in the wardrobe is indeed the fragrance that young women prefer."

"The one who has lived in this family is more likely to be my sister. Not my mother."

On this day, they found quite a few.

But the horror they experienced was lackluster, just like a real elementary school student's daily life, which passed quickly like a running account.

As the time of her task approached, Shen Jie's anxiety became more and more obvious.

She bit her nails, her elbows on her knees shivered slightly along with her legs.

There have been dead people in this room.

And if you want to find the most suitable place for dismembering the body, it is the bathroom.

At 9 o'clock in the middle of the night, she went to such a place to wash her hair...

The fitness coach looked at Shen Jie's pale face and couldn't bear it: "Sister Shen, why don't I go."

Shen Jie calmed down, waved her hand and said, "It's okay."

She is the leader of "Tailwind", she should take the responsibility.

Seeing that the time was almost up, she stood up: "I'll go get ready first."

Nan Zhou, who got 200 points, was researching the items in the mall list. Hearing Shen Jie's slightly stiff tone, he couldn't help but look up and stare at her back.

He asked Jiang Fang: "Why is she nervous?"

"When people take a bath, they have all kinds of worries." Jiang Fang explained, "Worry about a ghost reaching out from the mirror, worrying that when the foam covers the eyes, someone will touch your neck from behind..."

Nan Zhou: "Me? Why does the ghost touch my neck?"

"I'm not wearing clothes, he saw me, the man is okay, what if it's a female ghost." Nan Zhou seriously struggled with this question, "Then who is a hooligan?"

Jiang Fang: “…”

Shen Jie who just walked away: "..."

Nan Zhou continued to ask: "If something like a ghost appears in the bathroom, will it always stay in the bathroom?"

Jiang Fang: "If it is an earthbound spirit, it is possible."

Nanzhou: "Is it no entertainment?"

Jiang Fang raised his eyebrows: "Maybe not."

Nanzhou: "Where will it hide? In the mirror? In the toilet? If no one looks in the mirror, will it get bored? If someone goes to the toilet, what will it do?"

Nanzhou: "Also, what should I do if I encounter home decoration?"

Nanzhou: "If you put putty and make beautiful seams, will it be there too?"

Jiang Fang couldn't help but smile: "...Maybe."

Nan Zhou nodded: "Then she can't hide even if she hates formaldehyde."

Shen Jie's spirit stretched to the limit, in Nan Zhou's repeated questions, she slowly relaxed.

Whether Nan Zhou was intentionally helping her to ease her fears, she still said "thank you" in her heart.

Since a woman's scalp was found in the floor drain of the master bedroom, Shen Jie naturally chose the bathroom next to the children's room to perform the task.

However, something went wrong with her mission.

The shower head in this bathroom is broken, and only a few sparse strands of yellow water are gushing out.

Right now, she can't go to the master bedroom, much less use the bathtub.

If she is lying in the bathtub, her activities will be more restricted, and if she encounters a crisis, it will be too late to react.

So, she chose the same way as Chen Sufeng took a bath at noon-washing her hair with the washstand.

She turned on the faucet and switched to hot water mode.

Dense mist rises.

Shen Jie's figure in the mirror gradually blurred, and she could not see clearly.

Shen Jie exerted her strength to wipe off the mist on the mirror, stared at herself in the mirror, and gritted her teeth.

She must go back.

Her daughter is waiting for her.

Shen Jie gritted her teeth, leaned over, soaked her hair in the half-full sink, and calmed her numb scalp a little bit by the soothing hot water.

It's fine.

It will be fine.

At the end of the day, no one has encountered a ghost, so it makes no sense to let her meet.

After barely calming down, Shen Jie started to squeeze the shampoo on hand.

Shampoo diluted with warm water becomes very fluid.

The Yuba like the sun makes the light reflected on the swaying water waves a little dazzling.

In order to avoid looking directly at the mirror-like water surface, and to prevent the shampoo from flowing into her eyes, Shen Jie couldn't help but look away from the water surface.

She kept her head bent and put her hands on her hair, ready to rub her hands.

At the moment when I completely bent down...

From the space under her armpit, Shen Jie saw a pair of pale feet standing motionless not far behind her.

Nanzhou: The best way to overcome fear is to ask a lot of questions.jpg
