Chapter 409: Chapter 409 Night of the Full Moon, Girl’s Blood_1
Just as Qin Sisi and Ye You were at their wits’ end, Yellow Cat ca out of their room and said to Ye You, "I just had a chat with my wife, and I recalled a few more details that might be helpful to you."
Ye You’s eyes lit up, "Tell ."
Qin Sisi couldn’t understand the language of Yellow Cat, only hearing it ow at Ye You for a while. Ye You owed back once, and Yellow Cat turned and went back.
Qin Sisi quickly asked, "What did it say?"
Ye You’s gaze beca serious, and he slowly said, "It said that the night the incident happened, the moon was very round. After the middle-aged woman put the little girl in red on the bench, she looked up at the full moon and recited a few lines of poetry."
"Poetry?" Qin Sisi was astonished. It was rare to see soone reciting poetry after a murder.
Ye You nodded and recited in a deep and clear voice the lines of poetry Yellow Cat had told him, "On the night of the full moon, the blood of the maiden, keeps the beauty forever, spring flowers never wither."
Qin Sisi repeated it under her breath, a lightbulb flashed in her mind, and she turned to Ye You and asked, "Could it an that she only appears on the night of a full moon?"
Ye You nodded, "I believe that’s the implication."
The two looked at each other and chuckled bitterly. They could only et once a month on the night of a full moon, and it turned out that other ghosts also chose to join the scene on the night of a full moon.
Indeed, it was the day with the heaviest Yin energy in a month, and many ghosts were eager to make trouble.
Qin Sisi fell silent for a mont, then she turned to Ye You and said, "This matter is too harrowing, so we can only..."
Qin Sisi didn’t finish her sentence, but Ye You naturally understood her aning. To resolve this matter, they could not et on the next full moon night.
Ye You sighed helplessly, "Alright, on the next full moon night, we’ll go wait in Xiyuan Park."
Even though they yearned for each other, they had to temporarily endure for the matter at hand, comforting themselves that there would be plenty of ti in the future.
However, today was only the fourth day of the first lunar month, and there were still ten days until the fifteenth. They should find sothing else to do during this long period of ti.
Qin Sisi looked at Ye You, her eyes dazzling, and announced loudly, "Then tonight, let’s go et that singing woman!"
Yellow Cat’s family was indeed very disciplined. Except for going to the restroom, they stayed in the room prepared for them and refrained from coming out casually.
Therefore, although there were suddenly four extra cats in the house, Qin Sisi didn’t feel much different.
The sun gradually dimd from east to west, and darkness once again covered the earth.
At eleven o’clock in the night, Qin Sisi put on all kinds of gear, took Ye You to the balcony, stepped her foot on the edge of the window, jumped, and leaped into the boundless night.
"Wings of Rainbow!"
As Qin Sisi shouted, a pair of colorful large wings spread out behind her, and the area around her glead with splendor
Ye You imdiately activated the Invisible Bubble, hiding Qin Sisi’s dazzling figure, making her seem like she was travelling stealthily at night.
There was brilliant light, but nobody could see it.
Ye You guided Qin Sisi’s direction according to the address provided by Yellow Cat. Under Ye You’s instruction, Qin Sisi flew southward.
More than an hour later, Qin Sisi and Ye You finally arrived at an old-looking two-story apartnt.
The surrounding houses were even more dilapidated, primarily vacant. So houses had the Chinese character for ’demolish’ painted in red on their walls.
Ye You explained that, based on what Yellow Cat said, this apartnt appeared to be the forr residence of a famous person and was categorized as a historical relic. It couldn’t be demolished. If evaluated according to the age of the house, it should have already been demolished long ago.
Although it was considered a relic, there was no one managing it at present. The main gate was just locked, and there was a sign next to it stating that the building was a cultural relic and not to be damaged.
The iron lock on the main gate looked sturdy. Qin Sisi decided to ignore it and flew directly into the courtyard from mid-air.
Upon landing on the ground in the courtyard, she recalled the Wings of Rainbow.
Ye You, on the other hand, ignited the Ziwei Heaven Fire to help Qin Sisi observe the surrounding environnt.
The courtyard was small, with a flower bed made of decorative tiles on one side. The snow on the tiles had lted, but the flower bed was still covered in white snow.
When they reached the main door to the house, there was also a lock on the red wooden door, Qin Sisi could only turn around to look at Ye You.
Ye You casually blinked at the lock and the lock opened.
Qin Sisi carefully took off the lock, storing it to restore it back in its place when leaving, avoiding leaving a trace of damaging a cultural relic.
Pushing the door to enter the house, the musty sll of a place unoccupied for many years mingled with dust rushed to their faces. Even with a mask on, Qin Sisi found it difficult to breathe.
However, in addition to the coldness caused by the cold winter air in the room, there was also an intense cold Yin energy that invigorated Qin Sisi and Ye You.
Before they had a chance to carefully observe the surroundings, the singing of the rumored midnight woman had already reached their ears.
Qin Sisi stood still, listening carefully. The rhythm of the song was soothing, the lody was beautiful, and it was indeed very pleasing to the ear.
The singer had a round voice full of sadness, as if there were too many heartbreaking stories that no one could tell or understand.
Qin Sisi had never heard this song, but it felt like it was a very old song, at least from before the liberation.
Concentrating her mind, Qin Sisi opened her eyes wide to take a good look at the interior of the house.
In the spacious living room, apart from a set of rosewood table and chairs and a shelving unit, there were no other items.
In the far corner was a staircase leading to the second floor.
And the direction of the singing was coming from the upstairs.
Qin Sisi and Ye You looked at each other, and walked towards the stairs in the corner. Treading on the age-old wooden staircase, Qin Sisi ascended step by step, leaving so blurry footprints on the dust-filled stairs.
The wooden staircase here made no noise when stepped on, seemingly superior in quality to the one in the old library at City First High School. It could also be because this house was newer than that old library.
Hidden under the Invisible Bubble, Qin Sisi quietly walked upstairs, preparing to see what kind of ghost the singing woman was.
There were three bedrooms upstairs, and Qin Sisi went through each one after opening the door.
In two of the rooms were European-style double beds and wardrobes, both in lavish styles, indicating the wealth of the original owners.
The third room had only a simple double bed and no wardrobe, possibly used as a guest room.
However, there was nothing else apart from that.
There were no ghosts or won, only the soothing, elusive singing echoed in every corner, seemingly everywhere yet nowhere to be found.
