Kaleidoscope of Death

Chapter 22 - The Bloody Egg

After arriving here, they had already eaten several meals prepared by the triplets' mother.

But every meal had one thing in common, and that was that the ingredients were almost all vegetarian, no meat or flesh could be seen, basically an egg was considered an extra meal - because of this, Xu Xiao Orange had even complained about it.

But today's food was different, there were bright red meatballs floating in the pale soup. The color of the meatballs was very beautiful, revealing a seductive crimson color. The rich aroma of the meatballs reached everyone's nostrils, and if it weren't for the gruesome murder scene, everyone would have had an appetite.

"Go ahead," the woman said, "why don't you eat?" The woman said, "Why aren't you eating? I made it especially for you." Her hair was a bit messy, and with an unpleasant smile on her face, she stood beside her and whispered, "It's delicious."

No one touched the chopsticks.

Although the meatballs in front of them were so tempting, everyone obviously associated them with something worse - what kind of meat were they made of.

"Why don't you guys eat it?" The woman was still confused as she continued to ask questions, she flicked the hair from her ears and was the first to pick up her chopsticks, grabbing a meatball, "It's delicious."

She put the meatball into her mouth, her white teeth chewing the red meat, which looked so sweet.

Xu Xiao Orange covered her mouth again, looking at the expression as if she was again stimulated by the scene, and the faces of the others did not look good either. But the woman seemed as if she didn't notice this, using her chopsticks to hold the second pill, and with a terrified face, she continued to stuff it into her mouth, gulping it down.

"Crunch." As the meatball reached the back of her mouth, the woman's mouth emitted a sound similar to chewing brittle bones. Xu Xiao Orange finally couldn't hold back when she heard this sound and stood up to rush to the toilet.

The others left the table as well, wanting to get away from the woman and the steaming pot of meatballs.

The woman saw their frightened faces, but as if she didn't understand why, she muttered, "Isn't my cooking good? They all like to eat it.

No one said anything, everyone missed the dry bread at the moment, at least that one wouldn't be a problem.

The only two triplets left at mealtime appeared again, standing at the door holding hands, silently watching their mother who was munching away.

Lin Qiushi was closer to them, so he observed them for a while with his afterglow and found that it was just as Ruan Nam Candle had said, one of them had glittering powder on their shoulders and one of them had it in their hair. Lin Qiushi remembered that Ruan Nan Candle had said that there was a little ten on the shoulder and a little dirt on the hair, so it seemed that the girl who was killed should be their sister, Xiao Yi.

The twins were still haunted, and after standing at the door for a while, they disappeared.

This lunch made everyone very unpleasant, and I thought that dinner would be better, but who knew that during dinner, the woman brought out another steaming pot of bone broth.

The bones in the broth were stewed together with radishes, and the rich aroma once again filled everyone's nostrils.

Everyone hadn't eaten anything for a day, but seeing this pot of bone soup, their faces were getting uglier one by one.

Zhang Xinghuang couldn't help but curse in a low voice, "I wanted to eat meat every day a few days ago nothing, damn why is it all meat today."

"How dare you eat this meat?" Tang Yaoyao was also a bit irritated, "Ghost knows what it's made of."

When the woman saw that everyone still didn't move their chopsticks, she no longer persuaded, but picked up the soup spoon on her own and started to drink the soup. The soup was somehow delicious even though no one tasted it.

"It's delicious." The woman exclaimed thus, "It's a pity you're not eating it."

So everyone went a day without eating, watching the woman eat a pot full of meat and drink a big bowl of soup.

It was only after the woman had finished that we all gathered in silence and ate the tasteless dry bread.

"That soup looks so good." Tseng Ruguo was a bit attached to the food on the table just now, "Can't you really drink it?"

"Who knows what that soup is made of." Tang Yaoyao said impatiently, "Is it that hard to last a few days, when you return to the original world, no one will stop you if you want to eat and drink."

"Where's that little girl's body? Where the fuck was it taken." Xu Xiao Orange whispered her question, she moved her nose and pretended to look at the broth on the table, "If we find the body, the soup will be ready to drink, right?"

Lin Qiushi looked helpless, thinking that this girl also had a big enough heart, even if he saw the corpse, he didn't want to taste the soup. So what if it smelled good, no one could tell what the raw materials were.

"Looking for it?" Tang Yao Yao said, "Before I thought that the problem was the triplets, but now I have the feeling that the problem is the mother of the triplets."

"Why don't we look for the bodies first?" Ruan Nan Candle suddenly suggested, "This house isn't big anyway."

The girl's body had been cleaned up and put somewhere, so it was good that this house wasn't big, so it should be easy to find it.

"Then let's look for it." Tang Yao Yao agreed to Ruan Nan Candle's suggestion, "It's just as well that we haven't searched this room, so we can see if there are any new clues along the way."

So the group began to check around the house.

The house wasn't big, just three rooms and two rooms. The kitchen was the focus of the inspection, and Lin Qiushi saw some ingredients in the kitchen. The ingredients were almost all vegetarian, and they didn't look fresh anymore, so it was no wonder that the things that were made tasted so bad.

Next to the kitchen was the toilet, but there was nothing special about the toilet, the only thing that caught people's eyes was the huge bathtub in the toilet.

There were some black stains in the bathtub that looked like it hadn't been used in a long time, Lin Qiushi took a closer look and felt that the black stains were somewhat like blood, but he wasn't particularly sure.

Everyone searched around, looking through almost every corner of the house, but they still couldn't find the bag of bodies.

"Where the hell did they put it?" Tang Yao Yao said, "Is there another room here?"

After thinking for a moment, Ruan Nan Candle suddenly got up and went to the kitchen.

Tang Yao Yao said, "What are you doing in the kitchen? Looked all over there..."

Who knew that after Ruan Nam Candle entered the kitchen for a moment, the crowd heard the words, "I've found it."

Lin Qiushi hurriedly followed and found Ruan Nan Candle standing in front of the refrigerator. The refrigerator door was now wide open, revealing a black bag inside.

That bag was the shroud that the woman used to hold the little girl's body yesterday, and it was now stuffed all over the fridge.

"It's actually placed in the fridge." Tang Yao Yao felt a little disgusted, "I never want to eat anything she made again."

Ruan Nan Candle reached out and dragged the black bag out of the fridge.

Lin Qiushi saw the situation, "What are you doing?"

"Check." Ruanan Candle lowered his head, "Don't you want meat?"

Zeng Ruguo, who had said that he wanted to eat meat, accosted, "It's not like I have to eat it..."

Ruan Nan Candle ignored him and untied the bag's ropes, revealing the bag's contents. Inside was indeed the little girl's corpse, which was mangled in such a mess that in some places it was impossible to even identify the exact parts.

Seeing the bloody body parts, Nguyen Nam Candle's expression was very calm as he carefully inspected the bag, then looked up: "No more critical parts are missing - at least the bone broth wasn't made with her daughter."

Everyone: "........"

Tang Yao Yao looked at Ruan Nan Candle and laughed dryly: "Zhu Meng, you're too calm."

Ruan Nan Candle said, "Those who aren't calm are already dead." He pondered for a moment, "If it's true that the mother killed her daughter, but the question is why did she kill her daughter."

"Who knows, maybe she's crazy?" Tang Yao Yao fidgeted, "Let's just stay away from her."

"Mm." Ruan Nan Candle responded casually.

Everyone hadn't eaten anything this day, so they just nibbled on a few bites of bread. By the evening they were all starved and listless, the worst part was the pot of broth that had been placed on the table giving off a rich aroma.

The people thought about the woman's beautiful soup look, all a little unable to carry, have expressed themselves a little sleepy go to sleep first.

Lin Qiushi is also hungry, nibbled a bread without nourishment and then went back to the house and lay on the bed to prepare for sleep.

Ruan Nan Candle lay next to him and said, "Do you know why every family used to have so many children?"

Lin Qiushi said, "I don't know..."

Ruan Nan Candle turned her face sideways and put her mouth to Lin Qiushi's ear: "Because there were no electronics back then, they didn't have anything to do at night."

Lin Qiushi: "........"

Ruan Nan Candle: "Look at us now..."

Lin Qiushi calmly pulled out his phone, indicating that he still had electronics.

Ruan Nam Candle: "You still have power in your phone?"

Lin Qiushi: "I brought my charger..."

Ruan Nan Candle fell silent, and after a moment, grievously said, "You just know how to play with your phone, you don't even talk with me."

Lin Qiushi was put in a trance by Ruan Nan Candle, and had the illusion that he felt as if he really had a cute girlfriend, who was now pampering himself and complaining that he wasn't passionate enough.

"Alright, what do you want to say?" Lin Qiushi put the phone away.

Ruan Nan Candle said, "Do you guess someone will die tonight."

Lin Qiushi was stunned, not expecting Ruan Nan Candle to suddenly say that.

"I think it will oh." Ruan Nan Candle stretched out her hand and hugged Lin Qiushi's waist, speaking softly, "Because on the egg, there's already blood on it."

Lin Qiushi fell silent and began to think about the meaning of Ruan Nam Candle's words.

Ruan Nan Candle, however, didn't explain in detail, just said in a warm voice, "Sleep, see you tomorrow." After saying that, he closed his eyes and fell into a deep and deep sleep.

Ruan Nan Candle was asleep, but Lin Qiushi was not.

This cramped room was as cramped as a coffin, and if someone with claustrophobia was in there, they would definitely feel breathless.

It was good that Lin Qiushi didn't have this problem, but he still felt a heavy discomfort. It was already dark, and the fog became increasingly dense, making it completely impossible to see the surrounding scenery clearly through the fog. The buildings that stood on weekdays stood alone, isolated from the world.

The night was silent, yet this silence brought a sense of security, and Lin Qiushi hoped that this silence could be maintained until dawn.

However, Ruan Nan Candle's words seemed to have become a prophecy.

Around three o'clock in the morning, Lin Qiushi woke up from his dream. His ears were drilled with a sound that was very unpleasant.

It was like a sharp instrument chiseling the wall, dull but piercing, once, twice, the sound was so close that it was as if Lin Qiushi was only a wall away from the source of the sound.

He opened his eyes and took a moment to realize that he was indeed not dreaming.

Ruan Nan Candle was still sleeping, and Lin Qiushi was hesitant to wake him up, but as he hesitated, the frequency of the sound started to get faster, as if the person outside had lost patience and sped up.

"Boom", "boom", "boom", one after another, Lin Qiushi reached out his hand and gently pushed Ruan Nan Candle, saying, "Nan Candle, wake up. "

Ruan Nan Candle opened his eyes, his eyes were clear, as if the person who was sleeping just now wasn't himself at all: "What's wrong?"

"There's a noise outside," Lin Qiushi said, "As if someone is chiseling the wall."

Ruan Nam Candle looked at the wall next to them. Because it was an old building, the walls weren't thick and the sound could easily spread. He stretched out his hand and gently placed his palm on top of the wall, then his face changed slightly and said, "Move back a bit, away from that wall."

Lin Qiushi nodded, "What's wrong?"

"There's something out there," Ruanan Candle said, "I don't know what it is."

The two of them lit the lamp and looked through the remaining light in the room at the wall that continued to make a continuous banging sound.

It would have been fine if it was just a knocking sound, but soon, Lin Qiushi understood why Ruan Nan Candle had told him to stay away from the wall.

Only to see that on top of the not-so-thick wall, a small hole was actually gradually being chiseled out, and behind that small hole, a pointy taper was slowly sticking out....

Because the room was too small, Lin Qiushi's side of the bed was the wall, and this cone was long and sharp, poking at the spot where his head was lying behind. Lin Qiushi's face changed slightly when he saw this scene, if he had been sleeping on the bed, he would have been cold.

After the taper reached in, it retreated, as if because no blood was seen, it poked several more times in a row, and after no blood was seen, it finally gave up and withdrew the pointed taper.

The sound quieted down, and Lin Qiushi said, "Gone?"

In the meantime, Ruan Nan Candle said, "Wait a little longer."

"Let me take a look." Lin Qiushi suddenly thought of something, he bent down and took a look towards the hole that was chiseled out, this look almost scared his soul, he saw that outside the hole, there was a black eye that was blocked, it was covered in red blood and carried a taste of madness.

That eye also saw Lin Qiushi, and after knowing that he couldn't kill him, he disappeared in the next moment.

Lin Qiushi was frightened out of his cold sweat by this scene and cursed in a low voice, "Fuck, is it a human or a ghost out there."

Ruan Nanzhu: "I don't know, don't go out yet, wait until dawn."

Lin Qiushi raised his hand to wipe off the cold sweat on his forehead, "Hmm..." this situation was exactly like in a horror movie, he never expected to see an eye right there, and they even looked at each other for a moment.

"How did you wake up so easily." Ruan Nam Candle asked, "That's not a bad sound."

"I have exceptionally good hearing," Lin Qiushi said.

"It does seem to be." Ruan Nam Candle said, "You're always the first to wake up every time."

Lin Qiushi sighed and took another look at the hole, "Good thing I woke up." Otherwise, his head would probably have been opened up by now.

However, as soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, he heard this thumping sound appear again, only it appeared a bit farther away than earlier, as if it had gone to chisel other people's walls.

"Fuck, he hasn't given up yet." Lin Qiushi cursed, "What do we do? Shall we go and inform them?"

Ruan Nan Candle looked at Lin Qiushi: "Wait for me inside, I'll go see what that is."

Lin Qiushi said, "Come along, there's a way to take care of you if something happens."

Ruan Nan Candle seemed to smile, "You're not afraid?"

Lin Qiushi: "Isn't this you in."

Ruan Nan Candle's smile deepened at his words as he said, "Do you know that it's tempting to trust others with your whole heart and soul like this?"

Lin Qiushi was stunned, "What?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "Never mind, it's fine."

The two of them went to the door and opened it, the creaking sound made by the iron door was particularly harsh, once this sound was made, the sound of chiseling the wall outside immediately stopped. Ruan Nan Candle walked out first, Lin Qiushi followed behind him. The corridor was dark with no lights, so Lin Qiushi turned on the flashlight in his phone in order to illuminate it, shining it towards the front. Fortunately, the corridor wasn't very long, so you could see the entire corridor from the end. Lin Qiushi remembered that the source of the sound was on the right, so he took two steps towards the right.

"Wait." Ruan Nan Candle suddenly held Lin Qiushi back, "There's someone there."

Lin Qiushi looked over in the direction pointed by Ruan Nan Candle and indeed found a figure crouching in the corner, he took a closer look and looked startled, "Isn't that the triplet little girls?"

"It's true." Ruan Nan Candle said, "What are you doing there, little girl?"

The figure shrinking in the corner slowly stood up, wearing a cute little dress and a cute goatee, she walked towards Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nam Candle with a blank expression.

"I can't sleep." The little girl's voice had a tender taste to it, she walked up to Lin Qiushi and looked up at him, "I can't sleep."

"Hurry back." Lin Qiushi said, "It's too late, it's not safe out there."

The little girl sniffed, but looked at where her door was, and finally said nothing, turning around towards her home.

Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nan Candle, watched her disappear into the darkness again.

"Is that her?" Lin Qiushi was confused, "Why would she do that..."

Ruan Nan Candle pursed her lips: "There was no powder on her body or head." The implication was that she was neither Xiao X nor Xiao Tu, but the deceased Xiao Yi who had been chopped into several chunks.

Lin Qiushi: "...Maybe they took a shower and changed their clothes?"

Ruan Nan Candle laughed mockingly, "I hope so."

Because of this incident, Lin Qiushi didn't even sleep much in the latter half of the night.

Ruan Nan Candle, however, always had a big heart, hugging Lin Qiushi to sleep silly and sweet, and even relied on the bed for a while when she got up in the morning.

"I fell off and need Qiushi's kiss to get up." Ruan Nan Candle was lying on the bed.

Lin Qiushi expressed pain at Ruan Nam Candle's pampering and said, "Brother, can you stop pampering yourself with this face?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "Why? You don't like Moe anymore?" His expression was pitiful, and his large eyes began to fill with tears - it was really quite the professional cultivation of a playwright.

Lin Qiushi said, "Meng Meng, stand up."

Ruan Nan Candle: "........"

Anyway, after tossing on the bed for a while, the two of them dawdled and went to wash up. When washing up Ruan Nan Candle this product is still not enough to act, leaning on Lin Qiushi's body said: "Lin Lin, you were so powerful last night."

Lin Qiushi hadn't uttered a word, which was heard by Zeng Ruguo, who was brushing his teeth next to him, and his eyes suddenly became ambiguous, saying, "Young people are really fit."

Lin Qiushi gritted his teeth, "How am I awesome?"

Nguyen Nam Candle said, "Nasty, do you have to make it so clear to people?"

Lin Qiushi almost bit off the toothbrush in his mouth.

Waking up this morning, breakfast turned into tasteless dry bread again, but after yesterday's ordeal, everyone thought that dry bread was quite tasty... at least the ingredients wouldn't be something strange.

"I have to tell you guys one thing." While eating, Tang Yaoyao spoke in a low voice, "I went to check the fridge before I ate, and the body inside is missing."

"Missing?" Xu Xiao Orange stared at her, "What do you mean it's gone... are we going to have meat for lunch again?"

At the mention of meat, everyone's stomachs started churning again.

"It might be a misunderstanding." Tang Yaoyao said, "Didn't we check the corpse yesterday, and that corpse wasn't missing any pounds?"

"Who knows." Nguyen Nan Candle said, "can you find out if a piece or two of meat is missing?"

While everyone was chatting, the twin just happened to come out of the bedroom.

Lin Qiushi remembered something, he stood up and pretended to go to get the remote control for the TV, passing by the twins and taking this opportunity to look at their bodies.

But the unthinkable happened, two girls, one with glitter on her shoulders and one with glitter in her hair - then who was the one Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nan Candle had seen yesterday? And the guy who hewed the wall. Is he the dead Koichi?

Lin Qiushi's throat moved up and down as he thought of the pile of shredded body parts in the refrigerator.

Ruan Nan Candle cast a questioning glance at Lin Qiushi, who shook his head slightly and told Ruan Nan Candle the answer. Ruan Nam Candle wasn't surprised to see this, but just smiled calmly and said, "Today's dry bread is quite delicious."

"Doesn't the dry bread taste the same every day?" Tang Yao Yao said unhappily.

"Of course it's different." Ruan Nan Candle said, "The last meal before death is always much tastier than the usual food."
