"A book?" Claire looked at Meng Nan doubtfully: "What book?"
"I heard Samuel mention it two days ago. It seems to be a picture book called "Mr. Babadook"." Meng Nan stared closely into Claire's eyes: "Have you heard of it?"
"This really doesn't exist." Claire shook her head, and then said: "Wait, Babadook? This Samuel always liked to say when he was here with me in the past, he seemed to be a monster. Is that real?"
"That's not true. I feel like Samuel may have imagined it." Meng Nan looked at the water in the cup: "You know, children always like to imagine some weird people in their heads."
"That's true." Claire nodded.
"By the way, why are you the only one at home?" Meng Nan looked towards the stairs. They had not seen anyone leave before.
"Oh, Kyle has been busy at work lately and hasn't come back." Claire replied: "By the way, come here tonight, I'll prepare some delicious food for you."
"It still doesn't work. You still have to take care of Ruby. Wait until next time." Meng Nan shook his head, glanced at Xia Wenqing, and stood up slowly: "Okay, we have other things to do today, so let's start with
gone."
"Oh, okay then." Claire nodded and stood up to send Meng Nan and Xia Wenqing away.
"What should we do next?" Xia Wenqing looked at Meng Nan: "Check around again?"
"Yes." Meng Nan nodded: "I want to go to Mrs. Luo Qi's place again. By the way, Lao Xia, didn't you see Claire's husband when you came yesterday?"
"No." Xia Wenqing shook his head: "Is there any problem?"
"Well..." Meng Nan pondered for a moment and shook his head. Although he felt something was wrong, he couldn't express it at all.
Soon, Meng Nan and others arrived near Amelia's house. Mrs. Luo Qi's home was right next door to Amelia's house.
However, as soon as they reached this point, Meng Nan and Xia Wenqing smelled a faint smell of blood.
The two looked at each other and hurriedly ran towards Amelia's house.
I ran to the door of Amelia's house, and Man Sisi happened to run out from inside.
"Brother Meng, Brother Xia!" Man Sisi stopped.
"What are you going to do? What's wrong?" Meng Nan asked hurriedly.
"It's Xiao Li. She was stabbed by Jike Jia'er to protect me. I'm going out to buy some hemostatic bandages for her now," Man Sisi replied.
"Okay, go quickly." Meng Nan nodded, and walked into Emilia's house with Xia Wenqing.
At this moment, Chen Ruier was trying to stop Xiao Li's bleeding, while Amelia was comforting Samuel in the room.
"How's it going?" Meng Nan and Xia Wenqing came to Xiao Li's side and saw a huge gash running from Xiao Li's chest to her lower abdomen.
It was definitely Xiao Li's good luck to survive such an injury.
"Fortunately, if it had been deeper, she would have died." Chen Ruier did not look back, and said while giving Xiao Li acupuncture: "It is not life-threatening now, but I guess she will not be able to participate in the next actions."
Then Chen Ruier and Meng Nan talked about what happened before.
Chen Ruier, Xiao Li, and Man Sisi arrived at Amelia's house early in the morning. After discovering through the window that Amelia and others were fine, the three of them did not knock on the door immediately, but quietly guarded the door.
outside.
After all, standing in the open is never a safe thing.
Moreover, they could not explain why Jike Jiaer wanted to kill Emilia and the others.
Time passed quickly, and Amelia and Samuel at home finished their meal and were ready to go out.
At the same time, a black shadow flashed past the window on the second floor.
Chen Ruier and the other three noticed this, briefly discussed it, and decided to enter Amelia's house to find out.
If the black shadow is Jike Jiaer and the others, then Chen Ruier and the others can catch the latter to avoid worse consequences.
If the black shadow is not Jike Jiaer and the others, then it is very likely that it is Mr. Babadook.
No matter what, it is necessary to meet Mr. Babadook head-on for a while, maybe we can find a breakthrough about this world.
However, as soon as Chen Ruier and the others entered Emilia's yard, they were attacked by Jike Jia'er and the others.
It turns out that Jike Jiaer and the others had long expected that Chen Ruier and the others would come to protect Amelia and Samuel, so from the very beginning, their target was Chen Ruier and the others!
After all, Chen Ruier and Man Sisi have experienced countless horror movies, and their strength can be said to be superhuman compared to normal people.
Therefore, even though Jike Jia'er and the others took advantage of sneak attacks and kept pushing Chen Ruier and the others back, they were unable to really hurt them.
But at this moment, a black shadow swooped down from the second-floor window of the house, its huge arms spread out like a hunting falcon, and rushed towards Chen Ruier and the six of them indiscriminately.
The movements of the black shadow were silent, and the attention of Chen Rui'er and Man Sisi were attracted by Jike Jia'er and the other three. Only Xiao Li, who was protected by the two, noticed this.
Xiao Li gritted her teeth and pushed Chen Ruier and Man Sisi to both sides. The two narrowly avoided the attack of the black shadow.
However, Xiao Li was not so lucky.
Xiao Li, Jike Jiaer, Cai Hua and Shen Wei were suddenly attacked and were instantly injured by the shadows. The most seriously injured was Xiao Li who bore the brunt of the attack.
Subsequently, the three seriously injured Jike Jiaer immediately retreated, while Chen Ruier and Man Sisi faced the black shadow.
This black shadow is none other than Mr. Babadook, but except for two iron claws, it seems to have no entity.
Chen Ruier and Man Sisi's attacks could not cause real damage to it at all, they could only restrain it and prevent it from continuing to attack Xiao Li.
After a few minutes, Mr. Babado seemed to find that he could not gain an advantage, so he turned into a black light and shot back to Amelia's home.
It takes a long time to talk about these things, but only seven or eight minutes have passed.
Just when Mr. Babadook retreated back to Amelia's house, Amelia took Samuel out and prepared to go to school.
Seeing Xiao Li lying in a pool of blood, both Emilia and Samuel were frightened.
Suddenly, the two of them didn't care about going out, and hurriedly cooperated with Chen Ruier and Man Sisi to carry Xiao Li into the room.
Then he helped Chen Ruier stabilize Xiao Li's injury, and then took Samuel back to comfort her a little bit.
Chen Rui'er kept Man Sisi watching over Mr. Babadook until it was confirmed that it was safe, then she asked Man Sisi to leave to buy hemostatic medicine and bandages.
Coincidentally, just as Man Sisi left, Meng Nan and Xia Wenqing came... This chapter has been completed!
