Seeing that his junior brother was startled, Split God immediately explained: "There are many old men in our community who are kind-hearted and raise a lot of stray cats. Didn't it scare you?"

Zhang Lihua looked at Cheng Nan, who looked defeated next to her, and shook her head, "It's okay, let's go."

The three of them entered the building directly. There were five floors in one building. Cheng Nan lived on the fourth floor and Split God lived in the building behind. As soon as they entered the corridor, Zhang Lihua smelled a special smell, like leeks.

The rotten smell is mixed with the smell of smelly shoes. People who are used to living there may not think it is a big deal. Zhang Lihua was a little uncomfortable when she first arrived.

Zhang Lihua stayed on each floor for a moment, trying to find the source of the smell, but the smell seemed to be coming from the stairs, permeating the air on every floor.

When he arrived at Cheng's house, he went up and knocked on the door. The person who opened the door was Cheng Nan's grandma.

"Doctor Qian, you are here, come in and sit down."

Hearing grandma's voice, Cheng Nan seemed to be stimulated by something. After he entered the room, he began to twitch continuously. His head almost drooped on his chest. His whole body was in an unnatural state. Zhang Lihua looked at

Senior brother, senior brother took out the medicine from his pocket: "Nan Nan, we're home, I'll give you a glass of water."

While talking, Split God put the medicine in the water glass. Zhang Lihua couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that the senior brother really had no choice. Before Zhang Lihua entered the room and sat down, he noticed that the smell seemed to be worse in the Cheng family.

It was thicker. Zhang Lihua looked around and saw that the Cheng family was very neat and tidy, and even there was nothing in the trash can.

Zhang Lihua took a look at the walls and saw that they were all 24-year-old. It was impossible to hide corpses on the wall like in the movie. Zhang Lihua decisively rejected this speculation.

"What's wrong with you?" After the god gave Cheng Nan some water, he saw Zhang Lihua's strange expression and asked casually.

"Brother, do you smell anything?" Zhang Lihua suddenly felt that the smell seemed to be coming from the ceiling?

"It's okay, this is an old community, maybe there's a bad smell in the sewer pipes."

Splitting God supported Cheng Nan. After drinking the medicine, his mood was a little low, but he was obviously much calmer.

"Brother, look at his shoulders and head always keeping this strange posture. Could it be that the person in the dream really exists?"

Rishen smiled bitterly, and then gestured to Zhang Lihua with his eyes, as if he was worried that Cheng Nan would hear what he said. Seeing her senior brother's expression, Zhang Lihua did not continue the topic.

This house is about 120 square meters, with three bedrooms and two living rooms. Cheng Nan’s family of three and grandma live in it, a total of four people. Zhang Lihua walked around and found that the decoration of this house was very warm, except for the weirdness that could not be described.

Everything smelled normal. Zhang Lihua walked to the bathroom, and he pushed it open gently. What he saw was not a window but a mirror. Seeing herself in the mirror, Zhang Lihua felt a little unnatural. Because he was staying in Hongfu Hotel

In the room, the bathroom was a little weird, so Zhang Lihua might have had some preconceived ideas and was particularly concerned about the situation in the bathroom.

This mirror is very clean, there are no water stains on it, and it has been cleaned very well. The shower head is located on the side wall, next to the window. Zhang Lihua simulated the rain in Cheng Nan's mind.

Standing here, the person just appeared in the mirror. This bathroom didn't look like anything special, and Zhang Lihua's thoughts suddenly fell into trouble. He walked to the living room and accidentally glanced at the family photo placed on the TV cabinet.

, there are four people above, Cheng Nan’s parents have two children who look very similar?

etc!

Senior brother said before that Cheng Nan's family of three and grandma live here. So what's going on with the boy in the photo?

Grandma of the Cheng family is a talkative person. Through getting to know her, a past that she didn't want to be mentioned came to light. It turned out that Cheng Nan had an older brother. The incident happened before they moved here. The Cheng family lived in the old house. That year

His parents were busy at work, so the two younger brothers were often left at home. One day, there was a thief at home. When Cheng Nan's parents came back the next day, they found their three-year-old son lying in a pool of blood. The eldest son, Cheng Yang, had long since died.

.

Later, the Cheng family moved here, and no one mentioned it. Everyone thought they were a happy family of three. Cheng Nan's parents were highly educated and filial, and they took Grandma Cheng home early.

Come to enjoy the happiness, Cheng Nan has both good character and academics, but in fact, these are just superficial.

No one knows what Cheng Nan went through that night. But since that time, the family has noticed that the child is different from before. He is fine on weekdays, but occasionally has a tendency to self-abuse. Grandma Cheng is here to be with us

I stayed there just to watch what happened to my grandson elsewhere.

Over the years, the Cheng family has privately gone to large institutions outside the province for a lot of psychological counseling, but they all came to the same conclusion. This child has mild traumatic stress disorder, which should be caused by the death of his brother Cheng Yang.

The psychological shadow left on him. This kind of situation is actually common. For example, the heavy rainstorm in Zhengyang area the year before last year caused flash floods. Many people lost their loved ones as a result. Even if the survivors are out of danger, they will be in a state of continuous alert.

, it is difficult for them to get out of that predicament on their own. Because the body and brain will create an illusion that a crisis may come at any time.

The Cheng family had not told this secret before, out of the perspective of protecting Cheng Nan, for fear that he would be stimulated again. Zhang Lihua looked at Cheng Nan, who was leaning against the wall, his face full of exhaustion, his head still lowered.

It seemed like it couldn't be lifted at all.

Zhang Lihua dragged her senior brother to the balcony.

"Brother, do you think the root cause of this problem is the psychological shadow left by his childhood? I think it is necessary to ask clearly what happened back then! There is just one thing I can't understand. It has been so many years, why is he acting like this recently?

Will it suddenly look like this in half a month?"

"I don't recommend that you ask him directly. The Cheng family has been avoiding this matter, probably to protect the child. If he is asked to recall it now, he will definitely collapse."

"Senior brother, how about we ask his parents to find out what happened back then?"

"This matter, when his mother came to see me two days ago, she also mentioned it lightly. It was similar to what Grandma Cheng said. They had seen many psychiatrists, and they all recommended that parents spend more time with their children to help their children come out of the shadows. I think

His parents probably have shadows, so they haven't been able to handle this problem well. But it's somewhat certain that he must have encountered something that stimulated him recently. It's just that we haven't had any direction."

Zhang Lihua looked towards the living room to see if Cheng Nan had something to hide, but the top priority was to find out the person who often appeared in his dreams.
