Chapter 294 - Fan Yus Warning (1/2)
Translator: Lonelytree Editor: Millman97
Red and black were still the only colors on the paper; Fan Yu’s style had not changed.
“This is the room we’re living in, and your sister was lying there at the time.” Fan Yu’s finger moved on the painting. It passed several black people before stopping at a black window. The nurse looked at Fan Yu’s drawing, and she was confused. She was standing near the window, so if Fan Yu was right, the spider-like humanoid monster was just above her head.
“Ling Ling, let’s go back to the room to play, okay?” The nurse squatted down and moved her gaze away from Fan Yu’s drawing. Her rational mind told her that Fan Yu was drawing those thing from his imagination, but the more she looked at it, the more unsettled she became, as if there was a real monster beside her.
No wonder many mental doctors fall ill with psychological issues. After extended interaction with these abnormal patients, their worldview will slowly be twisted as well.
The nurse told herself that the source of her fear was her brain playing tricks on her. She tried to hug the little girl away, but the girl struggled; she did not want to leave Fan Yu’s side.
“Let me, you should not be so rough with kids.” Chen Ge placed the toys and snacks on the table before reaching for Jiang Ling’s small hand.
“I’m rough‽” The nurse stood to the side with a speechless expression. “I just think daily exposure to these scary drawings will have a negative effect on Jiang Ling’s growth, so I’m trying to lead her away.”
“Understood. Taking care of children is not easy.” Chen Ge looked confident and mature. There was an indescribable warmth in his smile. The nurse glanced at him before turning her head away with a harrumph. Even so, her gaze would drift back to Chen Ge occasionally.
“Jiang Ling, I’ve met your sister,” Chen Ge said directly. He did not treat Jiang Ling as a little kid. “I just came back from Lin Guan Village, and I’ve gained a new understanding of what happened to you and your sister. After some time, I’ll go deep into the mountains to Coffin Village to investigate the truth!”
The girl stopped crying when she heard the terms Lin Guan Village and Coffin Village. Her watery eyes seemed to be conveying a special emotion; it appeared like fear and shock. Neither of them spoke, and the room suddenly turned quiet. The nurse grumbled to herself, “What is this man doing? Coffin? Investigation? Why did he start playing along? There has to be a limit; don’t lie to children!”
To the nurse’s surprise, Jiang Ling, who had been crying, suddenly reached out her hand to grab Chen Ge’s collar. “Don’t go.”
“Is it very dangerous there?” Based on what Master Bai had said, Jiang Ling also had some slight abnormality. Similar to her big sister, Jiang Ling was that village’s ‘seed’ and probably knew some secrets about it.
“Yes.” The girl nodded obediently. “My mother said that the village has many things similar to big sister, but they’re very bad.”
“Similar to your sister? What else did your mother say?”
“Don’t touch the coffin.” Jiang Ling’s left hand tightened, and her right hand held onto Chen Ge’s collar tightly. “Don’t go. You won’t return if you go.”
“I know.” Chen Ge tussled Jiang Ling’s head. He picked her up from the floor and placed her on the chair. The girl did not resist.
