The funny old man
"So?" Shen Zhu watched them return empty-handed, "Didn't you catch it?"
"."
Zhu Xiaozhou was embarrassed to tell the truth.
Siming explained, "I did catch it, but I didn't expect it."
Then, he looked at Zhu Xiaozhou.
Zhu Xiaozhou was all wet, as if he had fallen into a puddle, and was wrapped in a blanket. "Sneeze!"
Its speed was so fast that Zhu Xiaozhou and Siming couldn't catch it at all. Bai Yuan took action and controlled the puppet. Suddenly, the puppet started to burn——
"Then what?" Shen Zhu brought a dry towel over and helped Zhu Xiaozhou wipe his hair.
Zhu Xiaozhou was shivering from the cold. "Then, he rushed over."
"It fell into someone's water tank." Siming revealed the answer.
As soon as Zhu Xiaozhou saw the fire, he rushed over to save it, but unexpectedly the thing disappeared without warning.
She immediately jumped into the water tank.
Then it became like this.
"So, the puppet is still missing?" Xiao Wenxuan spoke slowly, feeling weird no matter how much he thought about it.
Even if Zhu Xiaozhou can't deal with it alone.
But it's very possible that even Siming and Bai Yuan can't catch it.
He looked at Bai Yuan.
"Speak! What are you thinking of?" Zhu Xiaozhou has never been so embarrassed. He wishes he could catch that thing back now and cut it into pieces. It's so embarrassing——
"I just think that maybe there is only one explanation for why you can't catch it - it has no entity at all." Xiao Wenxuan thought about it, and this is probably the only reason that can explain it.
"No entity?"
"That's right!" Siming agreed, "If it had an entity, it wouldn't have been able to move so fast, and it wouldn't have disappeared as quickly as it disappeared. It didn't leave any traces."
If it has no entity, is it a ghost?
No, not a ghost
When Zhu Xiaozhou was particularly close to him, he didn't smell any sneaky aura from him.
So rule it out as a ghost——
"I remember I rushed over and smelled a smell, like oil paint!" Zhu Xiaozhou recalled all the details he remembered before the moment he fell into the water.
Oil paint
Everyone suddenly figured it out. It might be a puppet!
Zhu Xiaozhou and his group didn't feel anything in the yard——
It means it's not in the yard at all.
It can come and go freely in the yard, catching them off guard, because it is only controlled by people and therefore appears there.
But who would do such a thing?
Control a puppet.
The string puppet has been around for some years. There probably aren't many people who know how to use it. Being able to control it to run rampant in the yard so that they can't catch it means that the person controlling it is nearby!
"Human"? Is it human?
Zhu Xiaozhou realized that he had been tricked and became so angry that he took off his blanket and started to chase after him.
But he was dragged back by Siming.
"You just caught a cold. It's not good to catch the wind again. If you get sick, it will be serious. It's better for me to go and take a look." Xiao Wenxuan got up and made this trip for Zhu Xiaozhou.
In his opinion, Zhu Xiaozhou and the others had just been fooled and had suffered a loss, so it was not conducive to go back.
On the contrary, it might be easier for him.
"I'll go too!" Shen Zhu put down his towel and followed Xiao Wenxuan out the door.
Xiao Wenxuan and Shen Zhu didn't enter until noon.
"Found it?" Zhu Xiaozhou asked hurriedly.
"No, let him run away." Shen Zhu regretted that they did meet the "old man", but they didn't expect it.
"What's going on?" Si Ming was curious, Xiao Wenxuan also suffered a loss?
If you look carefully at the corner of Xiao Wenxuan's clothes, you can see that there is indeed oil paint on it.
Shen Zhu explained that they had been looking nearby for a long time and suddenly met an old man begging. He was almost hit by a car and jumped into Xiao Wenxuan's arms, bumping into him.
Wait until they miss the old man
Suddenly, I noticed that the old man had put oil paint on the corners of Xiao Wenxuan's clothes.
It’s obviously intentional!
"What does he mean by this? Provoking us?!" Zhu Xiaozhou was anxious. It was the first time in his life that he encountered such a situation.
This guy clearly seemed to know their identities and deliberately hid in the dark to play tricks on them.
"Don't be angry. I'll look for you later."
Seeing that Zhu Xiaozhou was really angry, Siming comforted him.
"No one needs to go." Bai Yuan rarely spoke and intervened among them. "He came to us. Even if we don't move, he will come."
Zhu Xiaozhou thought about it carefully.
It seems reasonable——
Since that guy knows that they are together, it means that he already knows them.
If they were here for Qiyun Dang, there would be no need for them to go all over the street to find him, and he would naturally come to him on his own initiative.
