"It was already 4:30 in the afternoon when Garvin and Sebastian returned to the house.The sun was already setting in the west, dyeing the originally blue-black sea water crimson, like an endless ocean of blood.The taxi driver who took them home collected the money and rode away happily. Only Garvin and Sebastian were left on the long road, and it was as quiet as another dimension.As soon as Garvin walked towards his grandmother's house, he shivered greatly on his back legs, as if the season had suddenly changed from early spring to the middle of winter."Sebastian." He quickly stopped Sebastian, who was walking in front of him, and asked anxiously, "Did you feel that it suddenly became very cold?""Cold?" Sebastian glanced back at him and said with a smile, "Are you kidding me? Can't you see the way I'm already sweating from running around here?"In order to prove that what he said was true, Sebastian did not forget to fan the hem of his open coat after finishing speaking.Was he t
Oops, if someone didn’t rescue this person right away, he or she would definitely drown in the big waves soon.It was too late for Garvin to explain anything to Sebastian, so he rushed down the coast without saying a word."What are you doing?!" Sebastian was shocked."To help! Someone fell into the water!" After saying these words, Garvin quickly stepped on a slope connecting the reef beach below and rushed down the coast. He flew over a bunch of obstructive and messy rocks like a dragonfly, and then quickly took off his coat, took off his shoes, and prepare to jump into the deep sea water just around the corner to save whoever was drowning.Garvin was confident that his swimming skills were good. When he was in college, he won multiple championships in the swimming competitions of the Provincial University Games. He was also praised by many girls at the same school as the "Genie of Swimming".However, it was the first time for him to throw himself into such a dangerous tide to save
Sebastian felt that the cry was like a cold sharp arrow that pierced his originally fiery heart with a swishing sound. He immediately felt his whole body tremble and suddenly turned his head and looked behind him.Behind him was still the quiet sea, but today's sunset seemed to be particularly eerie, dyeing the long sea water like a blood pool in hell.Wherever Sebastian looked, there was no one!But the scream came from behind him just now. It was not the kind that was close at hand, but extremely distant, and extremely clear. As if it came with the waves and dispersed with the wind, making it difficult to find a trace."Sebastian, Sebastian! What's wrong with you?" Garvin had already run to the coast. When he looked back, he found that Sebastian, who had been chasing after him, stood up and faced the sea at some point. He stood frozen on the spot. Garvin didn't know initially. He was running while calling his friend several times but there was no response. Sensing it was very strang
If this guy hadn't immediately uttered the following words, Garvin would have rushed up to him unceremoniously and made him cry. "There are so many women in this world, why do you have to pester that female ghost?" Can’t you let me try with her? No matter how you look at me, I’m more handsome than you!”Having said this, this narcissistic guy smoothed his hair and put on what he thought was a chic look to show off his youthful and sunny image.Garvin looked at it and instantly relived the terrible feeling he had when he was seasick yesterday - he wanted to rush to the rest room immediately and throw up, so he had no choice but to wave his arms feebly, interrupting Sebastian's endless narcissism. " Are you through?!”Sebastian finally stopped acting like an idiot and said in a serious tone. "I think there must be a reason for this. By the way, where did you say the female ghost first appeared?""On the ferry, right next to the fisherman who told Quinn the ghost stories!" Garvin said w
"Lindsey, are you back from Charleston Village so soon?""No!" Lindsey watched Garvin and Sebastian jump onto the beach one after another, then walked over quickly and said anxiously, "Just now, Mr. Quincy and I received a call from Thomas's parents before we arrived at Charleston Village. It turns out that they rushed back in the afternoon, but when they got home, they didn't see Thomas at all."Seeing Lindsey so anxious, Sebastian comforted her and said, "Maybe he went somewhere else to play? Few boys of this age will be honest if their parents are not at home!""No," Lindsey shook her head, "Thomas's parents discovered that all the food they prepared for their son in the refrigerator before going out yesterday morning was untouched. It feels like everything in the house is exactly the same as before they left.""That means Thomas might not have returned home at all yesterday!" Garvin couldn't help but have a clouded look on his face when he thought of the cold meaning behind this s
When Garvin, Sebastian and Lindsey returned to grandma's house together, grandma had been waiting for them at the gate of the courtyard with a cane on her back.Seeing the three of them coming back together, the worry that had been flooding in the old man's gray-brown eyes for a long time finally slowly faded away, replaced by a warm smile."Grandma, you know your legs and feet are not that strong anymore, so why are you still standing here?"When Garvin and Lindsey saw this, they quickly stepped forward and took their grandmother's arms to help her in."I see you guys haven't come back after being out for so long, so I was a little worried." Yvonne looked at her grandson and then her granddaughter, smiling so much that the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were much deeper than usual, "Lindsey, are you here today?" Is school going well? Hope the students are not naughty anymore."In order not to worry Grandma, Lindsey quickly glanced at Garvin and Sebastian and replied, "Everything
When he heard that he was going to a beautiful woman's house, Sebastian was as excited as a mouse that fell into a rice vat. He was so happy that he wanted to run to the town to buy some flowers and other gifts."I don't think it's necessary anymore." After hearing this, Lindsey lowered her eyes and said calmly. "We won't enter her house, we just wait for her at the door.""Why?" Lindsey's words and the inexplicable attitude when she spoke shocked Garvin. He thought to himself: it seems this little girl was looking at Sebastian's actions. When she heard that he was so good to Shannon, she felt sad. Was she jealous and started to pour cold water on him?However, Lindsey's next words quickly dispelled his doubts. "Because...because Shannon's mother is not in good health and doesn't like to meet strangers. Let alone you, even I rarely enter their house.""The mother of a beauty, haha, must be a beauty. It's a pity that I can't see it with my own eyes..." Sebastian is indeed a fighter amo
Shannon blushed slightly when she heard Garvin defended the old man, and explained. "Garvin, we don't mean to smear an old man. It's just that you saw it just now. He has been following me, which is really scary.""It's okay, Shannon." At this time, Sebastian, who had not had a chance to speak for a long time, finally jumped out to show his presence. He ran to Shannon, patted his chest and said, "If you want to go home in the future, and it’s too late, just call me and I will appear in front of you as soon as possible and accompany you home.”Facing Sebastian who was getting closer and closer, Shannon kept backing up: "No, no, thank you.""By the way, Shannon, where is Thomas? Isn't he with you?" Lindsey remembered that Garvin and Sebastian had told her before that Shannon and Thomas appeared at the door of the town police station in the afternoon, " You go to the police station in the afternoon to find out what happened."This..." Shannon glanced at Garvin and Sebastian, seeming to b
Garvin repeated his question again, fearing that his grandmother might get suspicious, and added, "Since I came back here, I keep thinking about my mother. I really want to know something about her past."Seeing Yvonne trying to walk upstairs with a cane, Garvin immediately ran over to help her. Holding his grandson's arm, Yvonne sighed and said with a sense of loss: "When your mother was young, the only thing that made her sad was probably that her father died too early.""How did grandpa die?" Garvin asked again."Why, didn't your mother mention it to you?" Yvonne glanced at him strangely and asked."She just said that he seemed to have died of some illness." What Garvin had always found difficult to understand was that his mother always said that she and his father had a good relationship, but she rarely mentioned his father in front of her husband and son. Even when she paid tribute to him during the annual festivals, she always remained sad but silent.Upon hearing this, Yvonne's
Since his mother passed away due to illness two years ago, Garvin had imagined many times that he could see her again. Now God finally heard his voice and made his wish come true with such a thrilling and amazing effect."Mom?" Garvin cautiously called out to his mother Yvette, who looked younger than himself. He really couldn't understand why she appeared in front of her son in this appearance.However, the girl Yvette turned a deaf ear to her son's calls, and just sat there wiping her eyes with her fingers.Garvin then realized that his mother seemed to be crying. It was "seemed to be crying" because he only saw her frowning and looking sad, but he could not see any tears falling from her face. Perhaps ghosts simply cannot shed tears like living people?"Mom, it's me!" Although the person in front of him was a real ghost, and her appearance was far from the last appearance of his mother in his memory, Garvin still felt sincere intimacy and nostalgia after gradually calming down, so
"There is still a way," The garbage man glanced at them mysteriously with his bloodshot yellow eyes, and then gave a very "amazing" answer under the great expectations of the two, "If you two have time, go to the Wells Mountain Shamanic Shrine. It is said to be very effective!"Oh my god! He thought that the garbage man would give him some good ideas, but he didn't expect that he would ask him to visit the shrine to pray to god again. If this trick worked, would he have ended up like this? Garvin complained in his heart, and then said to the garbage man weakly. "Sir, I have been to a shaman shrine, had my fate read, and consulted a Shaman, but it's all useless, okay?""Sir," Sebastian was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and stopped the garbage grandson who was about to leave with the woven bag. "At least tell us, what is the origin of this female ghost in white?""I've already answered that, I can't see it!" The garbage man said this, suddenly getting irritated, "You know what
The garbage man's words reminded Garvin of the nightmare he was having before he came to the island. The mournful voice that came from the depths of the island and kept calling him made him shudder.Sebastian originally wanted to say with a smile, "Who are you fooling, old man?" But suddenly he remembered the dream that Garvin had told him before, and he couldn't laugh anymore.The three of them fell into silence for a moment, and the atmosphere on the scene suddenly became a little depressing.After a while, Sebastian was the first to break the silence. "Sir, how do you know all this? Who are you?"The garbage man had a blank expression on his face. He glanced at him and said in a low voice, "I worked as a witch doctor for a while when I was young."It turned out that this was another former shaman who had dealth with spirits or fortune telling. However, Garvin felt that this Shaman seemed to be more capable than those scammers he had met in Providence City before!So he immediately
"Old man, is it really not you who is causing trouble?" After hearing this, Sebastian's first person of interest was still the garbage man. But at the same time, the memory that just remained in his mind immediately jumped out to tell him that this possibility could be said to be very minimal.Because, just now, Garvin's grandmother saw Garvin went out to throw away the garbage and didn't come back for a long time, so she was a little worried. So Sebastian volunteered to go out and check on the situation.As a result, when he walked on this road, he happened to see from a distance that the garbage man was walking towards Garvin, who had his back to them. Then Garvin suddenly raised his arms high for some reason, and then the garbage man pounced on him.Sebastian clearly remembered that, just as he said, at that time, there was no one on the grass in front of Garvin.Seeing that Sebastian also suspected him, the garbage man was so scared that he kept waving his hands. Because of his ne
""You..." Garvin looked at the garbage man who was holding his wrist in great astonishment. The first reaction that flashed through his mind was that there must be something wrong with his eyes, which must be a big problem than he anticipated.But the next second, when he looked back, his head was buzzing as if it had been whipped by someone. He saw that the protruding rock on the grass in front of him was empty, and there was no sign of the garbage man who had been sitting there just now.Could it be that the garbage man could teleport behind him the moment he raised the knife? But why did he hold his wrist tightly to stop him from moving? Even if Garvin racked his brains, he couldn't figure it out. He could only stare at garbage man who was still holding his wrist, his eyes blank and helpless."Old man, what do you think you're doing?" At this time, a roar came from the sky, accompanied by Sebastian's tall figure leaping into the air in a triple jump."Stop! Don't..." Garvin had jus
"Forget it," The man swallowed, rubbed his chin again, and then said slowly. "These things are called sea corpse worms. They were ghosts of people who drowned in the sea when they were alive, but think they have unfinished businesses. Because the corpses have been sinking in the sea and have not been recovered and freed from this world, there is no one in the family to do the deeds, so their ghosts cannot cross to the other side, so they keep floating in the sea, and some of them are very resentful and will harm others!""I understand!" Garvin immediately turned to look at the dark sea below the coast and muttered. "Earlier this evening, I met a water ghost on the beach. It must be..."As a result, the old man's next sentence completely overturned his guess. "The prototype of this sea corpse bug is a ghost that sank in the sea. When it first escapes from the sea water and enters the body of a living person, it turns into an egg, and then slowly hatches. From the looks
When Garvin, Sebastian and Lindsey returned to grandma's house together, they happened to see her holding a cane and carrying a bag of garbage. She was opening the courtyard door. It seemed that she was preparing to throw it into the large trash can on the roadside outside.Seeing this, Garvin stepped forward and snatched the garbage bag from his grandmother's hand. "Grandma, I'll throw it away. You go back and have a rest!""Okay, okay." Yvonne handed the garbage bag to Garvin, then helped Lindsey toward the house.Sebastian also followed them into the house.Garvin carried the garbage bag and ran to a large green plastic trash can on the roadside outside in less than a minutes. He was about to throw the garbage bag into the trash can when he suddenly saw a heap of dark shadow squirming down behind the trash can.He was startled and immediately stepped aside. But when he saw the figure of the old man slowly moving out from behind the trash can, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief -
When she heard Garvin calling her, Shannon stopped and looked back. "What's the matter, Garvin?"Before Garvin could speak, Sebastian rushed to say. "I just wanted to ask you if you still remember the old fisherman who was on the same ferry with us yesterday, who was telling you various ghost stories?""Oh, you mean the middle-aged man who told a lot of scary stories?" Shannon tilted her head slightly and thought for a moment. Her unmodified long shawl hair slid to the side, emitting a black light under the street lamp."Yes, that's him!" Sebastian stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers. "Did he tell you his name, where he lives, how he works, how old he is, and whether he is married or not?""Hm?" Shannon looked at him blankly, her eyes were full of surprise.Sebastian secretly screamed in his heart. Why did he habitually throw out the words he usually asked other girls when picking up girls? This caused Shannon to have a bad impression of him. He was about to explain, but Ga
