Seeing the picture of Mrs.Johnson being killed,I felt as if I had walked on the edge of life and death.With a complex mood,Michael and I came to Teacher David's house.
Michael handed the video from yesterday to Teacher David.After Teacher David poured us a few glasses of water,he took the phone and said while watching,"Sure enough,there are really unclean things in that room.This Lisa,my sister really raised a wolf!"
"How was your sister to Lisa?"Michael asked.
"My sister was very good to her.Whatever her son Tom had,Lisa also had.She never treated them differently in terms of food and clothing.It's just that my sister doted on my son too much.She bought him whatever he wanted,which spoiled my son terribly.But it's understandable.After all,Lisa wasn't her own child.She couldn't beat or scold her."
While Michael was asking questions,I carefully observed this house,carefully identifying which things were related to Lisa.
Teacher David's house was a little bigger than his sister's.The furniture in the room was dark in color and old-fashioned in style,but it could be seen that the materials were of high quality.They were all expensive and good things twenty years ago.
In addition to the two bedrooms on the left and right,Teacher David also separated a study for himself in the master bedroom with a curtain.The study was filled with various books from ancient and modern times,at home and abroad.There was also a red blanket on the chair next to the desk,the same as the one in Mr.Johnson's house.
I touched the blanket and silently counted to ten.
The scene in front of me turned into a hospital.The person holding the blanket was Mrs.Johnson.She wrapped the baby beside her with this blanket and rushed to her sister-in-law's ward.
"This blanket was brought back by my brother-in-law from Guangzhou.Things in that era were made of solid materials.I didn't have the heart to throw it away and have been keeping it."Teacher David saw me touching the blanket all the time,so he told me the origin of the blanket.
"It's really nice."I echoed.
In addition to the blanket,I also noticed a glass plate on Teacher David's desk.
I had seen this kind of table when I was a child.Usually,there would be photos pressed under the glass plate.
I moved the books on the glass away and immediately saw a group photo of Teacher David's family of three in front of the Tiananmen Gate among the many photos.
And the woman in the photo was the woman who appeared in the yard.She was at the scene on the day of the incident!
"Teacher David,is this your wife?"I pointed to the photo and asked.
Teacher David looked up,"Oh,it's my wife.But my wife passed away due to illness a few years ago."
"What was the relationship between your wife and your sister like?"
Teacher David pressed the pause button on the video and adjusted his glasses:"Why do you ask?"
"Oh,I saw a picture today.On the day of the incident,your wife was at the scene.She saw the whole process of your sister being killed."
Teacher David's expression froze,and his face suddenly darkened:"My wife and I went to my in-laws'house very early that day.You must be mistaken."
He dragged the video progress bar to the end and asked Michael:"What did you find?Why did your head suddenly stop hurting?"
"What was the relationship between your son Jack and Lisa like?"I asked Teacher David in return.
"My son and Lisa?What kind of relationship could they have?Lisa didn't study well.I never let my son play with her."Teacher David's voice rose,"What do you mean by asking these questions?"
"We just want to know the truth of the matter."Michael soothed.
"Know the truth?The truth is that Lisa bit the hand that fed her and killed her adoptive parents who raised her with painstaking efforts."Teacher David put the teacup heavily on the table,"I hired you to solve the problem of the haunted house,not to investigate me.If you ask any more strange questions,I'm sorry,but I have to ask you to leave."
"Teacher David,don't be angry."Michael stood up to apologize to Teacher David and accidentally knocked over the cup in a hurry.Hot water spilled all over Teacher David's pants.
Teacher David clicked his tongue and got up to go to the kitchen to get a towel.Taking this opportunity,Michael winked at me.I understood what he meant.Because after Teacher David left,I saw an old-fashioned DV on the cabinet behind him.
I quickly stepped forward and touched it.After counting to ten,I saw Teacher David and his wife watching the video recorded in the DV.In the video,Jack was pressing Lisa on the bed.A few seconds later,Teacher David's wife angrily took out the memory card and turned around and threw it into the stove in the kitchen.
Teacher David was still in the kitchen wiping his pants,and I still had time.
My hand touched the dining table again,and a picture of Teacher David and his wife having a meal together appeared in my mind.
"Why didn't you care?You just watched that little bitch kill my sister?"Teacher David slapped his chopsticks on the table.
"It's not a bad thing that your sister died.The house your sister got will be ours."Teacher David's wife said.
"What are you talking about!"Teacher David flew into a rage.
"Your sister's family has a lot of people and can get two houses.Don't look at us living better than your sister now.But after the relocation,it's uncertain.Then I'll see if you're jealous!Besides,if I hadn't gone to find your sister that day,I wouldn't have known about this at all.Just pretend I didn't go!"
Teacher David lowered his head and stopped talking.
"What are you doing?"Teacher David came back to the room after wiping his pants and interrupted the picture in my mind.
"Teacher David,actually you know everything about what your wife and son have done,right?"
Teacher David raised his hand to interrupt my words,"Get out.Leave my house now."
"Teacher David,the matter hasn't been figured out yet..."Michael tried to save the situation.
"I shouldn't have believed you. What special abilities? You just made up a few lies to try to defraud money?"
"Your son raped Lisa,and your wife was clearly present on the day of the incident but did nothing."Since things had come to this,I didn't want to hide anymore.I told him all the scenes I had seen,"All of these are what I saw.There's not a single lie."
"Then tell me,what kind of stimulation did Lisa receive that day?Why did she kill people?"
Teacher David asked the key question.I was speechless and didn't know how to answer.I really hadn't found the answer to this crucial part.
"Do you think the police don't know about these things?Bullshit special abilities.You must have seen the case file somewhere."
"Get out!"Teacher David shouted loudly,and the hair on his head trembled a few times.
