Li Jingming gradually lost control of his emotions. Ruan Zhan walked over and patted him on the shoulder to signal him to calm down. When Xiaoxia heard the part about Li Jingming's mother visiting relatives, she almost burst into tears. Although she didn't know how Li Jingming's accusation against his wife's family was related to this case, such enlightening questioning and active listening were sometimes needed during the inquiry, and she could not make premature judgments.

Li Jingming took a deep breath, forced back tears, gathered his thoughts and continued: "More than a month before this incident happened, our family planned to avoid the Golden Week and go to City A for a tour of the ancient southern town. But at this time I learned that a letter came from my hometown saying that my mother was sick. Of course I had to go back, but my wife was very unhappy, thinking that I had delayed the family's plans. But this time I had a very ominous premonition, and I had to go back. Although she didn't want to go back, logically she couldn't stop me, so I was finally able to go back home. But apart from giving me some travel expenses, she didn't let me take anything, and she didn't let me take her son with me either. I had no choice but to sell blood. But when I got home, my mother had no need for it.

After finishing the wedding, I rushed home immediately, but she still thought I was delayed for a long time and forced me to prepare for the trip immediately. My mother had just passed away, so how could I feel in the mood, but I really couldn't resist her, so I had no choice but to obey. Maybe I was in a bad mood due to sadness, but something went wrong when I booked the hotel online. When we arrived, we found that the room we reserved was not available at all. Coincidentally, there happened to be a large tour group there that also wanted to avoid the Golden Week. , so there are no vacant rooms. We could only leave the only three-star hotel in the area and stay in a small local hotel that was converted from a private house - named Ye Yuan. Because of this, our whole family regarded me as a sinner. Then something happened. ”

A look of fear appeared on Li Jingming's face, "I was in a very bad mood at that time and felt ashamed of the mother who gave birth to me and raised me. And to be honest, that was the first time I felt that I hated my wife so much. and their whole family, including my son, because he was so deeply influenced by them that he looked down on me as a cowardly and useless father. I hated them for humiliating my mother and making me lose my dignity; I hated them for letting me know that I was very late. The news about my mother's illness made my mother die without even seeing me or her grandson, and she could not rest in peace; I hated them for forcing me to do things I didn't want to do when I was most sad, as if the person who died not long ago was a and People who have nothing to do with me; I hate that they are sanctimonious in front of others, but behind the scenes they are selfish, cruel and narrow-minded; I hate that they are still okay with everything they have done to me in the past eighteen years. At that time, I really hated them, so much so that I never realized that I hated them. It is such a strong emotion that I hate it so much that I want to kill everyone.

That was the first time my wife and I had a fight, and we vented all our grievances together. My wife is used to being strong, and how can she tolerate me rebelling, so the more we quarreled, the more violent it became. My parents-in-law and my aunt also came over to help my wife. I don’t know what kind of evil was possessed, but in the end, the whole family beat me together, and the shop owner tried to persuade me to no avail. In fact, their family is a cultured people after all. Although they are always a bit shady, they never commit violence openly, let alone the whole family.

I was beaten until my nose was bruised and my face was swollen. I ran to the river not far from the back of the house to sulk in the middle of the night. At that time, I had nowhere to vent my anger and resentment, so I expressed my unquenchable anger to my reflection in the river. I nagged for a long time, and when I finally felt a little more relaxed, I said casually, ‘I hope I can chop off all their heads and feed them to the dogs! ’. In fact, I was just saying it because I was so angry, but at this moment, a sharp male voice in the water answered me and said, 'I will do whatever you want! ’

I was so frightened that I ran back to the hotel and asked the kind-hearted shopkeeper who was waiting for me if the place was haunted. The shopkeeper said firmly that no, and he was very angry and blamed me for ruining his sign by talking nonsense. . Seeing how determined he was, I felt a little reassured, thinking that I was confused and hallucinating. Then the shopkeeper helped me take care of my injuries and gave me some advice before sending me to the room upstairs. At that time, no one in my family paid attention to me, and of course they would not pay for my travel expenses. Although the hotel had more than a dozen rooms, and my family was staying at that time, I had no money to buy another room, so I had to sleep in the attic.

I was angry, tired, achy and hungry, and the attic was dark and humid, so I couldn't sleep well. I was in a daze until midnight, when I suddenly heard the sound of dripping water, like light rain. It seems like something is leaking. The strange thing is that you can see the sky full of stars from the skylight of the attic, but the sound seems to be coming from outside the door.

I remembered what happened by the river. I was so scared that I didn’t dare to get out of bed, but the sound didn’t stop. Instead, it got louder and louder, and finally turned into the rushing sound of a small river. It was as close as if I was by the river. Lying down. I knew that no one else in the hotel could hear this. It was coming to find me, and it wouldn't stop until I opened the door, so I had to bravely open the door.

There was nothing outside the door, it was just unusually dark, and then I felt the sound of dripping water coming from behind me again. I was so scared that I froze there, unable to move, but the door closed with a bang. I forced myself to turn around slowly. Although it was dark, I could clearly see a large pool of water stains beside the bed, but it was obviously dry. Then, a pair of wet footprints stretched towards me step by step, as if something was walking towards me and standing in front of me.

I mustered up the courage and asked shakily, ‘Who are you? ’ I was very afraid of its answer, but it did. He said that I helped him, so he would help me realize my wish and chop off the heads of my whole family. I was shocked and said that I didn't know what I had done to help him, but I just spoke out of anger and didn't want to kill my whole family, and the method was so cruel. Then I said a lot of words, and I don’t know what they were. I was so scared that I just wanted to find something to talk about, saying that people are not just grass and trees, and how can they be ruthless? Although my wife’s family is not very kind to me, it is a family after all, and we share the same family. How can I still have feelings after living for so many years? I babbled and just wanted to let it go, but there was silence all around. I thought if someone saw me in this situation, they would think this scene was very strange, like a madman talking to himself. Just when I thought it was gone and breathed a sigh of relief, I suddenly felt the room shaking violently, as if I was in a stream of water. The water was freezing cold and I couldn't breathe. A voice shouted angrily in my ear. I was so scared that I couldn't hear what it was saying. I only heard him scolding me for not being a man and that I would have to pay the price for being a coward. I desperately begged it to let our family go, but the feeling of suffocation became more and more severe. I thought it would kill me, but I felt a cold in my chest, and then I fainted.
