After understanding the entire situation, Lin Xuan was silent for a few seconds, and then raised his eyes to look at Zhang Yubin.

"So, the most important thing now is to find Zhang Xinzhen and find out why she hanged herself, right?"

"That's right!"

Zhang Yubin nodded heavily and reached out to touch Zhang Zijie's little head.

Although the little guy is not very old, his eyes reveal agility that is different from that of ordinary children, making people want to rub their heads just looking at him.

The deceased has passed away. It is important to fulfill his last wish, but it is even more important to protect the living.

Zhang Xinzhen has turned into an innocent soul. Although she intends to protect her son all year round, there is no guarantee that he will not suddenly go crazy and kill him!

After thinking about this, Lin Xuan asked again: "You just said that your mother will come to see you in the evening. Does she behave differently from ordinary people? Or does she just stay by the bed?"

"follow me."

Zhang Xiaojie waved his hands to the two of them, and then motioned to Lin Xuan and Zhang Yubin to follow him.

Soon, the three of them walked through a narrow corridor, went up a flight of stairs, and finally arrived at a small attic on the top of the building.

The decoration here is very simple.

An ordinary bed, plus a wooden shelf for hanging clothes and shoes, and the last wooden box covered with dust.

Lin Xuan leaned forward slightly. His height of 1.8 meters seemed a bit tall in this small attic.

With the whirlpool in his eyes, Lin Xuan had suddenly opened his yin and yang eyes, looking for traces of ghosts in the attic.

After a while, he closed his yin and yang eyes with some regret. The room was very "clean" and there was no "dirty stuff" in it.

Finally, Lin Xuan set his sights on the little boy Zhang Xiaojie.

But I saw that he had taken off his shoes and lay on the bed, sleeping in a lying position, looking straight at the wall on one side.

There, a faint sunlight shines in through a small window, and is reflected on the wall on the other side, giving it a warm feeling.

However, the tender childish voice in the room instantly shattered this warmth!

"Every time I go to bed at night, no matter what time I fall asleep, I will be woken up by the rustling sound in the middle of the night."

"Then I would see my mother, dressed in red, crawling in from the window on the wall. She seemed to be unable to walk, and just kept walking in the air."

"It was as if something was pushing her behind her. She would soon float in front of me and then reach out and touch my face!"

"Her hands were so cold, it was like an ice cube was touching my face, so cold!"

Zhang Xiaojie's body was trembling slightly, and it seemed that only at this moment did he truly return to the appearance of a child.

A trace of intolerance flashed in Zhang Yubin's eyes. This six-year-old child has endured too much recently, and I don't know where he got such perseverance!

Lin Xuan asked curiously: "Then what? Will she stay with you until dawn and leave in the end?"

"no!"

Zhang Xiaojie shook his head again and said in a trembling voice: "Then she will untie the red rope tied around her waist and tie the rope to the beam!"

"That's the beam!"

Zhang Xiaojie suddenly raised his hand and pointed at the roof, with strong fear in his eyes!

Lin Xuan and Zhang Yubin followed their fingers and finally saw the beam across the roof. It was square and ordinary.

"After tying the red rope, she would step on the box and put her head in it!"

"She was just hanging on the rope, sticking her tongue out, rolling her eyes and looking at me!"

"I have been struggling and trying to call someone, but I can't make a sound and I can't move my body!"

After saying this, Zhang Xiaojie burst into tears.

Zhang Yubin walked over and held him in his arms, looking at Lin Xuan with the slightest pleading.

Lin Xuan nodded slightly and asked in a low voice: "What have you done these days? Have you found out any useful information?"

As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Zhang Yubin suddenly had a look of embarrassment on his face.

He didn't dare to look at Lin Xuan, so he coughed twice and said in a calm voice: "I stayed here for three days and three nights, but I didn't notice her coming."

"But just the night before yesterday, I went out of the city for something. When I came back today, I heard Xiaojie saying that she was back last night."

"She seems to be deliberately avoiding me and not wanting to meet and communicate with me. I have tried every possible way I can think of, but she still hasn't appeared."

Lin Xuan nodded slightly, his eyes moved from Zhang Xiaojie to Zhang Yubin, then to the beams, and finally to the dusty box.

Lin Xuan pointed to the box and asked: "So, what is this box used for? What's in it?"

"I don't know," Zhang Xiaojie shook his little head and said doubtfully: "My mother put this box here. There is a lock on it. I can't find the key, so I don't know what's in it."

Relic?

Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly and subconsciously walked towards the box.

As expected, there was a delicate little lock hanging on the back, which looked so golden and delicate.

"Where did the key go?"

Lin Xuan asked curiously, and at the same time he squatted down to see if he could pry open the box and see if there were any clues inside.

But the moment he knelt down, a loud shout suddenly resounded through the attic!

"Don't touch that box!"

"who?!"

Lin Xuan's eyebrows were as bright as lightning. He pulled away and looked towards the place where the sound came from.

But I saw a man's head come out of the attic, his eyes widened, and his face full of shock and anger!

"Eh?! Zhang Pingan!"

Lin Xuan suddenly let out a cry of surprise. It was Zhang Pingan, the taxi driver who brought him back from Taoshu Village.

At the moment when he recognized Zhang Ping'an, Lin Xuan's thoughts started to change rapidly, and a string suddenly became intertwined in his mind.

Zhang Xiaojie said that he saw his mother, who came to guard him every night, and even hung herself on the beam.

Zhang Yubin stayed here for several days, but the female ghost Zhang Xinzhen did not appear, and there was not even the slightest trace.

And yesterday, Zhang Ping'an happened to be led to the underworld while driving a taxi!

In other words, whenever Zhang Yubin is here to guard, Zhang Xinzhen, who has turned into a ghost, will haunt her husband Zhang Ping'an.

And when Zhang Yubin leaves Zhang Xiaojie's side, Zhang Xinzhen will come back to haunt her son.

As for why Lin Xuanhui believed that Zhang Pingan and Zhang Xiaojie were related, it was naturally because the two looked extremely similar, and they were obviously father and son.

"It's you?! Why are you here!"

At this time, seeing the familiar face of Lin Xuan across from him, Zhang Pingan's expression suddenly changed.

He still clearly remembered that when he was in the car, Lin Xuanyou asked him if someone in his family had died?

But he told a lie!
