"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
"There is a boy in our class who cannot be contacted. In fact, two other teachers from our school, alongside me, went to the police station in the afternoon." Lindsey said bluntly, "I didn't go to the morgue, but the other two teachers did. , the one who said the incident was not our student.”"But you are still worried that they have made a mistake because you haven't contacted that boy yet? No wonder you were so anxious to see me on the phone just now." As expected of a friend, Shannon guessed it right away Lindsey's thoughts. "But you can rest assured this time, Aunt Zara and I have confirmed that the person who had the accident is Tony's father!"When Lindsey heard this, her tense shoulders suddenly relaxed, and she murmured: "This is really great - no, I mean, it's just fine if nothing happens to Thomas. But, how could Tony's father ended up like that. What could have happened?""Who knows," Shannon lowered her eyes and lightly shrugged her shoulders,
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
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 -
"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
