Aunt Liu opened the conversation and immediately returned to the excited look he had just now, saying: "I was so scared that night. My old man and I went to bed at eight or nine o'clock. We were going to wake up two or three times at night, going to the bathroom, and we woke up completely at five o'clock in the morning. But that day, that day... we woke up together from ten o'clock that day. I opened my eyes and felt something was wrong. The room was very cold."

As she said this, Aunt Liu hugged her shoulders.

"Our house faces south, the sun is so good during the day, and it is made of a hot water bag. It is covered with a duvet bought by my son, which costs several thousand yuan! It's very warm! It's been two winters, and it's still very warm! The mattress is also velvet! How could it be so cold! I'm almost frozen to death... I looked at the old man, and he opened his eyes. His eyes were so wide that it scared me." Aunt Liu pressed her chest, "I didn't dare to make a sound, so I stared at him for a long time."

"Is the window at home opened?" Xiao Qian interrupted. Without waiting for Aunt Liu to answer, he continued, "It's still not closed? I remember Aunt Liu, you live upstairs?"

"Yes, yes, I live on the second floor, and the windows are equipped with anti-theft nets. I closed the windows. That day, the door should not be closed, so the child sneaked in." Aunt Liu complained, "I have told the dead old man a long time ago that I remember to close the door and close it when I get home. When it's hot, the door is open, and the wind blows through the hall makes me feel a headache. He also said it's cool. He doesn't know how to close the door when it's cold. It's really..."

"The kid sneaked into your house and ran to your bed?" Xiao Qian asked seriously.

This is all in the house, and the matter is more serious.

Aunt Liu is an old-fashioned person, and she doesn't have a small amount of money. She doesn't know any law of illegally invading residential houses. When she was young, she didn't have the concept of a community like this, and she didn't know what it was to enclosed communities and high-rise apartments. Her family and every household nearby had someone open their doors, and neighbors could enter and exit from other people's houses, and they were not afraid of any bad people. She borrowed a bottle of soy sauce from the home and gave the western house some rice dumplings made at home. She didn't have to greet her, take the things, put them down, and shouted. There were also a few naughty children here who played hide-and-seek in the community and hid directly in the house. Everyone looked at them with a smile and didn't care.

After Aunt Liu found out that the child was not a kid, but a real kid, she became relaxed when she talked about this matter. She also made a mistake and felt relieved when she made a joke.

"Isn't it right beside the bed? It was probably hidden somewhere at the beginning. I asked the old man to check if the window was closed. He was too lazy to turn on the lights, so he just looked around and ran to the toilet. As soon as the toilet lights were turned on, the room was illuminated a little." Aunt Liu gestured, raised her arms, and pulled out two lines on the ground, as if it was the lights of that night. "When I saw, how could there be a figure like this? It was like a person standing at the door. But that wasn't an old man."

Aunt Liu pointed at her eyes, "I'm so presbyopic, I thought I was wrong. After the old man went to the toilet, the lights turned off, and the shadow disappeared. He turned on the lights in the room again, wanted to find the air conditioner remote control, and turned on the air conditioner. I watched him busy."

Aunt Liu sighed, "The air conditioner is on, and he finally turned off the light and went back to bed. The air conditioner was buzzing, and the hot air blowing over, not warm at all. I turned over—" She twisted her waist and pointed to the window of the neighborhood committee, "I saw someone standing by the window! We live on the second floor, someone standing by the window! I almost yelled, and then I saw clearly that the person was standing by our bed..."

Xiaoqian couldn't help but hold his breath and was attracted by Aunt Liu's story.

Zhou Wenli's fingers were entangled, looking like Xiao Qian, who was shocked by Aunt Liu's storytelling, but only she knew that she was thinking about other things.

Aunt Liu continued to raise her hand and pointed to the window, "I'm almost scared. Why did a child appear in this room? That child is exactly the same as Xiao Zhou said, wearing a piece of clothing and a face. She is thin and stands on the edge of my bed and looks down at me."

"He didn't do anything, did he?" Xiao Qian asked nervously.

Aunt Liu shook her head, "I was almost scared at that time. I reached behind and pulled the old man hard. The old man called out and asked me what I was doing. I didn't know how to answer him, so I just pulled him and pulled him desperately. The old man sat up all of a sudden and turned on the desk lamp at the head of the bed."

Aunt Liu put down her hand, "As soon as the light lit up, I squinted my eyes, and my eyes were white. When I saw clearly, I found that the child was missing. I... I thought I had seen a ghost. I told the old man that the old man didn't believe it. We were still searching by the bed, but we couldn't find it. Such a big child... Maybe he was hiding under the bed. He was very fast. The old man and I couldn't look under the bed. We couldn't even lie down. After a while - we searched, but we couldn't find it, and lay back on the bed. After a while, I heard footsteps. I heard someone walking out."

Aunt Liu said, raising her hand again, this time the direction of her finger was at the door, "A man walked out and there was still a sound of the door closed. I wanted to call the old man, but when I turned my head, I found that the old man was open with his eyes. He also heard the sound of the door closed."

Aunt Liu sighed, "We two stared at each other. The old man got up first and went to the door to see it. I want him not to see it. If the thing is still outside, when he opens the door, wouldn't he just bump into it? He doesn't always listen to me, he is just stubborn."

"There is no one outside?" Xiao Qian asked.

"No one. He opened the door and said there was no one outside, so he came back. After lying down for a while, we were both too hot to bear it. The old man got up again and turned off the air conditioner. I guess it was the child who went out and closed the door for us, and the room would be warmer." Aunt Liu said.

Xiao Qian was speechless for a moment.

Aunt Liu's words are really not particular. What does "help" mean? This is obviously a naughty naughty child, but he sneaked in while Aunt Liu's house is not closed properly. If he weren't young, he would have to be arrested and squatted in the detention center for a few days.

"The old man and I were both frightened and didn't dare to stay at home for several days. Think about it, we have lived here for decades and have never encountered such a thing. We have never heard of such dirty things in this community." Aunt Liu looked frowning, "The old man said we were stupid and dreaming. But these things... I told my son, and my son laughed at us and told him serious. He said he would accompany us to do that, what... it was to check our brains, and what was very expensive. My father and I didn't have a broken brain."

"You should have called the police that day. Otherwise, you can call our neighborhood committee." Xiao Qian said regretfully.

"How do we know that he is really a child! I still think it's a dirty thing... I told the old man, was it his old elder brother? He used to have a elder brother, who died when he was very young. It's all his stepmother's fault..." Aunt Liu talked about the old almanac.

"Yeah..." Xiao Qian cooperated and asked, "Aunt Liu, do you remember when the child slipped into your house on the day?"

"It's been a few days ago." Aunt Liu thought for a while, "Wednesday or Tuesday..."

"Last week?"

"Well... last week, last week..." Aunt Liu couldn't remember it clearly.

She and her husband kept this matter tightly and never gossiped with anyone at the card game during the day and the "symposium" at the event center in the evening.

It was also during this period that everyone had the New Year and had many relatives left. Everyone had a lot of fresh gossip to talk about. Everyone rushed to speak, which made Aunt Liu, who was worried and incompetent, failed to get the opportunity.

Seeing Aunt Liu's excited look at this moment, she must have taken the opportunity to tell her thrilling story tonight.

Xiao Qian regretted again.

If you can't even remember the time, it will be difficult to check the surveillance video of the community. If you look for a needle in a haystack, you may not have the effect of squatting in the community directly.

Xiao Qian had decided to inform the other colleagues of the neighborhood committee about the child and to take care of the security guards at several doors of the community. He had to take good care of it. When he found out that the child was caught immediately and could not let him run around.

Xiao Qian was still scared when he thought of this.

Aunt Liu and her husband are both very old. If this is not good, it will be awful if something happens to scare you.

There are many such elderly people in the community, and some of them may not have the good health of Aunt Liu and his wife, so they will really be killed by then.

What's even more terrifying is that the elderly may be regarded as normal death, and no one will carefully investigate the cause of their death. The child will continue to wander around their community...

Xiao Qian was shocked and asked, "Will the child run to other communities? He is not a child from our community? Isn't he? I've never seen him before?"

Aunt Liu answered with certainty: "I have never seen you before, you are not the child here."

Zhou Wenli didn't say anything, but just looked at Xiao Qian in panic.

"That might be from the North District or the West District... it might be the child of the Rainbow Apartment, or a further place..." Xiao Qian said, "We all have small doors open in our communities. There are no guards in the small doors, and we don't lock the doors at night..."

The community they are located in is the South District of Steel, which is the employee-allocated house of the original steel factory. In addition to the South District, the North District and the West District are all the original steel factory dependent courtyards. The Rainbow Apartment, separated by a road, is a single-family high-rise residential building that rose from the ground thirty years ago, with a total of twenty floors, with fifteen households on each floor. The four residential communities are managed by the same street and are often interchangeable with each other. Moreover, the supporting living facilities of this plot, namely those vegetable markets, community hospitals, supermarkets, small restaurants, and schools, are scattered around the four communities, which also makes the residents of the community accustomed to taking shortcuts from other communities.

The neighborhood committee where Xiao Qian is located is only responsible for the southern district, but his superior department can manage the four neighborhood committees. The staff of the other three neighborhood committees are close colleagues. He can't just sweep the snow in front of the door, regardless of the life or death of the other three.

Aunt Liu didn't think so much, just thought Xiao Qian was right.

"It may be that other communities ran in. If this were not familiar, it would be impossible for us to sneak into our community. When entering through the gate, you would definitely be seen by the guards. Those small doors were not lived on our side, and they would not pass through those doors."

Both of them believed that this was the truth.

Aunt Liu and Zhou Wenli couldn't help with the next thing. Xiao Qian sent them out and went back to the office to get busy.

Aunt Liu stood at the door of the neighborhood committee and sighed to Zhou Wenli, "If you hadn't mentioned it today, I wouldn't know how long I would be afraid. If it really doesn't work, the house would have to be sold. Fortunately, I met you."

Zhou Wenli didn't feel lucky at all.

She felt that things had become out of control. She didn't expect that the child would actually go to someone else's house at night, nor did she expect that the neighborhood committee would pay so much attention to it. She originally wanted to inquire about the identity of the child. If she could find the child's parents, ask where his tomb was, and burn incense, it would be fine. But now...

"Don't think too much. They will definitely find someone with Xiao Qian. If they can't find it, it means he left and went to other places. It may be brought by those who work. There are several small shops at the entrance of the north district. Didn't the owner keep changing? It might be the children of which shop." Aunt Liu guessed.

Zhou Wenli could not agree with Aunt Liu's words.

Things may not be that simple.

Aunt Liu has lived here for decades, and Zhou Wenli has lived here for quite some time. Now, it may be that a child she had never seen before suddenly appeared. Perhaps it was not that there was an accident at his home, but that he did not belong here, and came all the way from a very distant place.

In this way, it would be too difficult to check his identity.

Zhou Wenli still had some hope in her heart. After saying goodbye to Aunt Liu, she went home.

It's very cold at home, and the temperature is no different from the outdoors.

Zhou Wenli stopped taking off her coat and looked at Sha Kai squatting on the balcony in surprise.

"Akai, why are you at home..."

Sha Kai turned around, with a dark face, and did not answer Zhou Wenli's question. He turned back and continued to be busy on the balcony. With his movements, there were also crisp sounds of dinging sounds.

Zhou Wenli became more and more uneasy and hurried to the balcony, only then could she see clearly what Sha Kai was doing.

Sha Kai was cleaning the broken glass on the floor. The broken glass full of dustpan made Zhou Wenli raise her head.

The cold wind blew into the room.

Zhou Wenli saw a whole missing piece of glass.

She has always been diligent and always cleans her home very clean. During the Chinese New Year, she even rolled up her sleeves to clean up and wiped the windows spotlessly.

Now, she stood on the balcony and could only see the disappearing whole glass.

"How could this happen..." Zhou Wenli asked in dismay.

"Maybe it's loose." Shakai stood up with the dustpan and said casually, "I'll go to the nearby to see if there is a shop that can install glass immediately."

Zhou Wenli opened her mouth and couldn't stop Sha Kai.
