Chapter 1222 The So-Called Ghost

To avoid embarrassment, Xifa coughed dryly: "I heard that you are here to deal with some things?"

Kyle laughed dryly: "I can't talk about handling it, and I'm at a loss at the moment, because I'm not very good at solving such incidents."

Xifa said "Oh": "What kind of event is it?"

Kyle glanced at the young gentleman and touched his nose: "Haunted."

Xifa was stunned for a moment: "This place is haunted?"

This is impossible.

When he came in, he felt nothing.

Not to mention that he is a real god now, even if he is not a real god, he can feel whether this place is haunted or not.

Plus, even if it's really haunted.

He, the 'Red Priest', has already stepped in here, and this is like a sanctuary blessed by the true God.

Even evil spirits can burn and evaporate in an instant.

Kyle didn't know it, but still nodded solemnly: "Yes, haunted."

"At first I didn't care too much, thinking it was just a strange talk among children."

"But last night, a child did go missing."

"Missing?" Xifa smiled and said, "There are many reasons for the disappearance, and it may not be haunted."

"What did the children say?"

Kyle said in a deep voice, "It's a story about 'Mom'."

Cifer raised an eyebrow.

The two sat down on a stone chair in the small garden, and a little girl picked some flowers and gave them to Kyle.

Kyle smiled and reached out to take it.

Then said.

"'Mother' is from Tingen, she lost two children in the war."

"She is in so much pain that she often confides in people, but no one wants to listen to her."

"Not long."

"She was found dead in the house, her whole being abnormally transformed."

"Her skin was black and green all over, and it swelled so brightly that it looked like a balloon."

"She doesn't know how long she has been dead, the gas in her body has filled her body."

"When someone went in to collect her body, bang, she exploded."

"Her things are everywhere, the stench is everywhere, and maggots are crawling around."

"It is said that people who saw this scene had nightmares for months."

Xifa tried to ask: "Is this a real example?"

"Yes, 'mother' is Mary Cronin."

"She was a laundry worker. Her husband died of illness when she was young, leaving behind a pair of children."

Kyle said with a sigh of relief: "She raised this pair of children by herself. Although it was hard work, it was her spiritual pillar."

"I can imagine the pain she must have felt when she lost her two children."

Xifa was puzzled: "The city of Ketingen has not been affected by the flames of war."

Kyle sighed: "The disaster brought by the war is not just the flames of war."

"Materials were tight after the war, especially medicines."

"The city of Tingen was not affected by the flames of war, but prices also soared, and it didn't drop steadily until these two months."

"But during that time, you can't imagine, even I could barely afford bread, let alone those poor widows."

"But food is not the most in short supply, the most in short supply is medicine."

"Mary's two children had to eat wild vegetables and mushrooms that Mary dug from the wild because they had no food."

"Yes, it turned out they were poisoned."

"And she had no money for medical treatment, even if she had, there was no medicine for her at that time."

Kyle looked at the children in the distance: "As a result, she watched the two children die in front of her own eyes."

Xifa sighed softly: "This is really a sad story."

"Yeah." Kyle nodded, "After that, there began to be strange talk about 'mother'."

"People say Mary misses her baby too much."

"There is no rest for the soul."

"So wandering in the night, wandering, taking those children away."

"Her lonely soul kept devouring child after child to fill the emptiness and regret in her heart."

Kyle pointed to the house where the children lived: "Just last night, a child left here with 'mother'."

"The children inside saw that the missing Rose got out of bed in the middle of the night, opened the door, and disappeared into the night with a white woman."

Are there any witnesses?

Xifa smiled: "It sounds like Ms. Mary really wants her legend to spread."

Kyle gave him a puzzled look.

late at night.

The city of Tingen, located in the north of the kingdom, is still very cold at night.

This made the children in the workhouse not only close the doors and windows tightly, but also huddle together.

After all, it will be warmer this way.

There was no fire place in the house, and the workhouse had no money to spare with which to buy them charcoal.

Heating depends on shaking.

Shaking alone may not be warm enough.

Everyone huddled together and shook, and they were barely able to deal with it.

I don't know how long it has been.

Faintly, a woman's sad cry sounded outside the house.

Alpha, a seven-year-old boy.

Father couldn't survive the last winter, and he became an orphan.

He felt the urge to urinate, but he was unwilling to leave the warm 'bed', but at this moment he heard a woman crying.

Immediately no sleepiness.

He rubbed his eyes and looked out the window.

A white figure stood outside the window, shoulders shaking slightly under the moonlight, as if weeping sadly.

Alpha quickly covered his eyes.

He pulled the boy next to him who was a few years older than him: "Mom. Mom is here."

"What mother?"

"I don't have a mother anymore."

The boy talked in his sleep, rolled over and fell asleep again.

At this time.

The figure gradually walked towards the window, and suddenly lay face on the window.

That face was dripping with black liquid, wrinkled and unfeminine.

Alpha screamed.

But the next moment.

A black shadow jumped on the 'mother', and then there were screams and begging for mercy outside the window.

Alpha was surprised.

One by one the lights in the workhouse came on, and the porter came running with a lantern.

A handsome young man was seen stepping on a white figure, punching and kicking.

The gatekeeper exclaimed: "Mom! It's Mom!"

"He is not."

There was a voice behind the gatekeeper.

Two figures appeared under the lights, one was Kyle Garden, and the other janitor remembered that it was the gentleman who came to donate to the poorhouse during the day.

Kyle pointed to the white figure and said, "Look carefully, he's just a bastard in women's clothes!"

It was Reg who threw that figure down.

This.

It was Xifa's arrangement.

Xifa didn't think there were strange stories happening in the workhouse at all.

Since it is not a ghost, it is man-made.

Based on this, he convinces Kyle to hide secretly in the yard.

Until the so-called 'mother' appeared, Reg was subdued.

Soon, the police also came.

The man dressed as 'mother' was taken away, and several people from Sifa came to the police station. After a while, a police officer explained the situation to them.

It turned out that the man used the legend of 'mother' to abduct children everywhere and sell them elsewhere.
