After hearing what she said, I couldn't help but come to a realization.

So it was like this.

But even so, there didn't seem to be anything worth hiding, right? After all, it didn't seem like such a shameful thing to me.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but be a little astonished.

At the same time, the uncle in the yard shouted, "What the hell are you doing, kid! You can't do your homework anymore!"

"Washing vegetables. Alright, I'm almost done."

At that moment, my uncle walked in and said to me, "Little boy, let me burn it. When you don't come, your aunt will bully me and make me burn it. Now that you've come, why are you bullying me? This won't do."

Even though I said it was fine, he still stole my position.

With this, it wouldn't be good for me to ask my aunt any further.

When we reached the courtyard, I saw that it was already late, so I said goodbye.

My aunt wouldn't let us leave no matter what. After all, we came all the way here, and if we didn't eat and go back, she would feel bad.

And his uncle said the same.

However, I had my reasons for persuading them. I immediately said, "It will be dark soon. I can't go back too late for something to happen at home these few days. I'll have my meal the next time I come."

Hearing my words, the two of them could only sigh and no longer had any intentions of trying to persuade me to stay.

After all, the two of them know about what happened at my house, so they can't say much in this situation.

In this way, I couldn't help but walk back with Tang Ran.

After walking for a short while, the night sky completely descended. At a glance, it was pitch black everywhere. Even though there was a faint moonlight, one's line of sight was still greatly affected.

At this moment, Tang Ran whispered to me, "How is it? Did you ask?"

I immediately nodded my head.

"What did your aunt say?" Tang Ran asked.

I promised my aunt that I couldn't tell anyone about this.

Thus, at this moment, I was still somewhat conflicted about this matter.

Under such circumstances, I couldn't help but mumble to myself.

Seeing me like this, Tang Ran couldn't help but say, "There's nothing to be anxious about. You can speak slowly."

But this cannot be said.

Just as I was at a loss over this, in the darkness, I seemed to see something move.

After realising this, I immediately stopped and my eyes couldn't help but widen.

At the same time, Tang Ran also noticed this person.

After taking a glance, he directly said, "Chase!"

As he spoke, he took the lead and gave chase.

I didn't dare to hesitate in the slightest. At this moment, I also followed behind him.

When the two of us got a little closer, I discovered that the person who was secretly following us was actually my second uncle.

At first, I was surprised.

He immediately wanted to catch up and capture his second uncle to see what was going on. He was actually able to move freely like a living person.

However, when the two of us went over, I discovered that Second Uncle seemed to have received some sort of instruction. He did not wait for us to get close. He quickly charged into the darkness and disappeared very quickly.

He was extremely fast, and for a time, Tang Ran and I were unable to catch up. Thus, we could only watch as he disappeared into the night.

After reading up to this point, I couldn't help but ask, "Tell me, now that they know that we're looking for Aunt, will they make a move against Aunt?"

Now I have discovered that everyone I came into contact with is dead. Widow Wang, Uncle Liu, the butcher Liu, they all helped me, but they all died very quickly.

That's why right now, my aunt is involved in the matter of buying a coffin, so at the same time, I'm very worried if my aunt will be involved in this as well.

Under the circumstances, I couldn't help but be very worried.

At the same time, Tang Ran said, "Your aunt isn't a simple person, so you don't have to worry about her."

Although Tang Ran had already said so, I was still quite worried in my heart.

After all, my aunt's family looks so harmonious, I don't want her to be involved in anything because of me.

However, in this situation, even if I was worried, it would be of no use. After all, my ability is limited, and I can't even take care of myself properly, let alone others.

During the rest of the journey, Tang Ran seemed to be worried that someone would eavesdrop on our conversation. After all, no one knew what was hidden in the darkness. Under such circumstances, Tang Ran would naturally remain silent.

We didn't say anything on the way home. When we got home, it was already around nine o'clock.

Although my father was not well, he was still sitting in the yard waiting for us when we came back, out of worry.

It wasn't until we returned that he heaved a sigh of relief. With my support, he returned to his room.

At the same time, when I returned to the house, Tang Ran was already there waiting for me.

The moment I entered the room, Tang Ran asked me in bewilderment, "How strange. Why did I smell a fishy smell when I first entered the room?"

When he spoke, he took a deep sniff.

At the same time, it occurred to me that the clothes I had been wearing the night before, the ones I had been playing with, were lying under the bed. They were covered with dirt, and the smell was probably coming from them.

I immediately opened the window and said, "I'm sorry. Although the winter is warm and the summer is cold, this isn't good. When the weather is wet, there will be a smell of mud."

It was a good thing that Tang Ran didn't take this matter to heart.

Then he said, "Well, I can't smell it anymore. Maybe it's because I'm not used to coming in, so you should close the window."

I let out an "oh" before closing the window.

At the same time, I sat down hesitantly.

Don Ran subconsciously asked me, "What happened? What did your aunt say about this? "

On the way there, I had already thought about it carefully. I realized that if I didn't tell him everything that had happened, he definitely wouldn't let this matter go.

In order to prevent him from asking further, I also lowered my voice and mysteriously said, "That place is indeed Grandpa's grave, and when Grandpa was about to be buried, because the geology was special there and the soil was a little loose, the requirements for the material of the coffin were quite high. At that time, you knew that coffins like that were expensive, and my family didn't have that much money, so I could only find an acquaintance to guarantee that I would owe them a thick coffin made of wood.

When Tang Ran heard this, he hesitated for a moment.

In his eyes, I could clearly see that he had a look of disbelief on his face.

He didn't know why, but at this time, as if he had thought of something, he acted as if it was all a matter of course and said, "So that's how it is, let me say, buy a coffin, why do you need to bring a little girl over. With what you said, I finally understand, well, it's already 9 o'clock, go wash up and sleep, you must be tired today."

After saying that, he stretched his back and left while yawning.

Tang Ran's reaction was really strange. He could clearly tell that I was lying, but why didn't he expose me and instead said those words to me? Regarding this, I was still quite puzzled.

However, the current me was truly a little tired.

Although he woke up very late today, he didn't sleep well at night. No matter how much he slept during the day, it was still uncomfortable.

Thinking that Wang Chunmei would let me find her at ten o'clock, I lay down on the bed and slept for more than forty minutes.

At ten o'clock, I did not wake up on time.

And in my dream, I dreamed that I was late or something, and Wang Chunmei was very angry with my lateness. She made a gesture that seemed like she was going to tear my face apart.

Her eyes widened as she ferociously charged at me. When she grabbed towards my face, I was immediately frightened.

Thus, in this situation, I was suddenly awakened by her without the slightest bit of hesitation.

At that moment, I subconsciously shouted and sat up.

But at the same time, I had a vague feeling that there was a hand blocking my mouth.

This hand, I was sure, was not mine, but was as cold as the winter ice on my mouth.

Thus, under such circumstances, I subconsciously shut my mouth.

At the same time, I opened my eyes wide and saw that the person inside my room was Wang Chunmei. My previous sleepiness immediately dissipated at this moment.

I looked at her, stunned.

Who would have thought that the person who appeared in her dreams would appear at this moment …

And the situation now is almost the same as it was in my dream.

Because at the same time, I saw that on the wall behind her, the hands of the clock were pointing to twelve o'clock.

In that instant, I realized my mistake and looked worriedly at the Widow Wang before me.

Because at the same time, I was really worried that she would scratch my face like she was doing in a dream.

At that moment, I looked at her pleadingly. Just as I was about to explain something …

I suddenly heard footsteps outside.

At the same time, the sound of footsteps has quickly reached the outside of my room.

Wang Chunmei immediately squinted her eyes. She turned her body and rushed into my wardrobe to hide.

At the same time, someone outside has already barged into my house.

When he entered the room and saw me, he was so shocked that he subconsciously leaned back a little.

At the same time, he asked me in surprise, "What's wrong with you?"

I started, then said, "Me? "Nothing."

With a puzzled look on his face, Tang Ran frowned and said, "Little boy, what is it? You can tell me. The two of us are in the same group. Do you know?"

After hearing what he said, I nodded subconsciously. At the same time, I said, "It's really nothing. I was just having a nightmare …."

"Oh? So why are you sitting there without any clothes on? " At this moment, Tang Ran asked me like a mother about something.

Embarrassed, I said disapprovingly, "I woke up in fright. I was wondering if I should go to the toilet. I was hesitating. I went to bed after 9 and didn't take off my clothes."
