The room suddenly fell silent, the atmosphere becoming somewhat eerie.
Liu Yuan Kui crouched down, his knees creaking against the floor. "Dong Dong, where do you think your sister's Finger Bone is?"
The child ignored his father, leaping off the bed like a monkey. Without even putting on his shoes, he swiftly crawled under his grandmother's bed.
Liu Yuan Kui's heart raced; without thinking much, he followed suit and pulled out his phone to shine a light under the bed.
Suddenly, Dong Dong shouted loudly, "Get out of here! If you dare come back, I'll beat you up!"
Liu Yuan Kui nearly dropped his phone in shock, his face turning pale.
Who was Dong Dong talking to?
After a rustling sound from beneath the bed, everything fell silent.
Dong Dong peeked out from under the bed with a glass bottle in hand. Liu Yuan Kui took a closer look and realized it was an IV bottle filled with liquid, heavy in Dong Dong's grip.
Dong Dong placed the bottle on the edge of the bed and pouted at Zhao Wenya.
At that moment, Liu Yuan Kui noticed something slowly sinking to the bottom of the bottle. As he focused, he saw it clearly: it was a human finger!
It looked like a sea cucumber soaking in medicinal liquor, slightly bent as if enticing someone to take a closer look.
Zhao Wenya was startled and retreated behind Liu Yuan Kui, covering her mouth to stifle a scream.
At that moment, the eldest brother, who had been preparing dinner outside, pushed the door open and walked in. The old lady shouted, "Get out!"
Hearing her voice and seeing the grim expressions on the faces of the other two, the eldest brother hurriedly closed the door.
The old lady shifted her body and moved to the bedside, lifting a bottle containing fingers up to her eyes for a closer look.
Her fingers scraped against the glass with a harsh sound, and then tears streamed down her face as she murmured, "It's definitely Yan Zi's."
She took out a small red envelope from her clothing pocket and pulled out a platinum diamond ring, the Swarovski diamond sparkling brilliantly.
"Isn't this Liu Yan's? How did it end up with you?" Liu Yuan Kui felt his tongue stumble, struggling to form words.
"Three days ago, Yan Zi came to see me," the old lady leaned back against the large box again.
"You mean Yan Zi was here three days ago?" Liu Yuan Kui's mouth fell open as he stared at his aging mother.
"Yes, she said she wanted to come check on me."
The old lady's voice was filled with sorrow. "She gave me this ring and told me to keep it safe. When Dong Dong grows up and gets married, I should give it to his wife."
"I even asked her why she didn't keep it for herself. She said she no longer had any use for it."
The old lady suddenly broke into a violent cough. Liu Yuan Kui wanted to help her, but she waved him off.
"I also noticed that her hand was wrapped in thick layers of gauze. When I asked her what happened, Yan Zi said she accidentally cut her finger, but it turned out she had chopped her entire finger off!"
Zhao Wenya crouched down and held Dong Dong's shoulders. "Did you see your sister too?"
Dong Dong nodded. Zhao Wenya then pointed at the glass medicine bottle and asked, "Did she give you this?"
"Yes." After saying this, Dong Dong hugged the bottle tightly to his chest and added, "Sister told me to take good care of it, but just now I almost got eaten by that damned big rat!"
"Sister said she would come back for it." Dong Dong continued.
Liu Yuan Kui and his wife exchanged glances, a chill creeping up their spines.
Liu Yuan Kui whispered, "Could it be that Yan Zi knew about her impending death from the very beginning? Did she lose her finger before she died?"
The old lady was overwhelmed with emotion, clutching her chest as she cried out, "Poor child, you must have suffered so much. Yan Zi, if you have any grievances, tell Grandma, and I will go die for you!"
Dong Dong hugged the bottle even tighter. "Sister said she would come back."
