Chapter 36 Face (IV)

Jack believes that it is not accidental that his scalp itched and a strand of long hair grew after contacting Rainy.

Other people may have the same risk after contacting her, but he is not sure how high the probability is and how "lucky" he is to encounter it.

Therefore, he decided to investigate it the next day, otherwise if he lets his scalp itch continue, the consequences will be disastrous.

Early the next morning, he first called to inquire about Clare's situation at the orphanage and learned that she was normal.

He also contacted the male volunteer of the "Big Monster", and the other party also said that there was nothing wrong with his body.

It seems that these two people either did not get the ghost or did not have an attack for the time being.

Jack's second plan is to go to Rainy's house.

According to Lily, Rainy lives with her parents and has closer contact with them, so she may also be possessed by the scalp ghost.

This is just a guess, and he needs to confirm it. If Rainy's parents are not infected, he also wants to remind them.

Another important reason is that he has a 75% understanding of Rainy's characteristics.

If it reaches 80%, even without the sculpture, the scalp ghost can be temporarily locked.

Now, he can't speculate the other party's characteristics just by contact. The only way is to see it in person, catch the clues, and make the understanding reach 80%. He will lock the other party without hesitation.

After all, this is about his own life. If time is delayed, there may be changes, such as being taken away by the scalp ghost, and then he will become a walking corpse.

He also thought about waiting until the understanding of Rainy reaches more than 90% before absorbing her "potential skills".

But life is at stake, and potential skills cannot be compared with one's own life.

No matter what the situation is at Rainy's house, he must come.

What's more, Ray from the special case investigation team said that he would come to wait, and Jack called him to ask if he was still there so that he could take care of him.

Although Ray did not answer clearly, his tone seemed to default that he had not left.

Of course, it would be best if Jack could figure out the remaining characteristics of Rainy himself.

Now, although he has mental antibodies and strong strength, he is confident to deal with abnormalities, but he still brings a kitchen knife just in case.

After knocking on the door, the middle-aged woman who opened the door should be Rainy's mother.

Jack saw the middle-aged man sitting on the sofa in the living room, who should be Rainy's father, smiling at him.

Everything seemed normal, but Ray seemed to be missing.

Jack was not sure that the two were completely fine, so he did not enter the house immediately, but asked directly.

"Have you felt uncomfortable these days, such as itchy head?"

Peter and Anna were obviously stunned for a moment, Peter shook his head and smiled: "Itchy head? Why is it itchy head? Are you in the shampoo business?"

Jack smiled but did not answer, turning to Anna: "Auntie, is your scalp itchy these days?"

Anna smiled naturally and shook her head: "No."

"Rainy said her head was itchy a few days ago, so I specially brought her a bottle of anti-dandruff and anti-itching shampoo."

Jack raised the shampoo he had just bought in his hand.

You can't come empty-handed, you must find an excuse that is consistent with your purpose.

"I thank you on behalf of Rainy!" Peter stood up cheerfully, "Come in and sit down. I'll go call Rainy. She seemed very tired yesterday and slept late. Please wait."

"It's okay." Jack was still standing at the door.

Peter's footsteps sounded in the corridor, and it seemed that he had opened a bedroom door.

The water dispenser was still working, and the water boiled again. Anna took a paper cup to make hot tea for Jack and invited him to come in again.

If he didn't come in again, it would arouse suspicion.

Jack came in and sat in front of the sofa. He saw a cup of untouched tea at the other end of the coffee table.

"Auntie, were there any guests just now?" he asked casually.

Anna didn't answer, as if she didn't hear it. She just sat next to him, looking at him, as if the mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law.

Being stared at by this gaze, Jack got goose bumps all over his body. He intuitively thought that Anna and her husband had misunderstood and thought he was pursuing their daughter.

At this time, Peter walked out with a smile: "Rainy is awake, let you go in, she is waiting for you in the bedroom."

"What?" Jack was stunned.

If he really sent shampoo for Rainy, this little thought would be obvious, and it would be strange if Peter and his wife didn't think that way.

What Jack didn't know was that Peter and Anna seemed normal, not because they were abnormal, but because in their eyes, Jack was already "one of their own".

Although he had not completely lost his mind.

Ray, who was in the bathroom, vaguely heard the conversation at this moment.

He didn't expect that when he and Jack entered the house, they were treated completely differently. Not only did this family behave normally, but they were also polite like a family.

"Is this really an era of looking at faces? Not only people, but even ghosts are like this?"

Ray touched the crow's feet on his face and pulled a handful of messy hair, making his hands greasy.

The static induction on his body decreased, and he knew that the static field was weakening and needed to be replenished.

He retracted the tip of the pen, exposing the hollow position to aim at his arm, and was about to stimulate static electricity when the bathroom door moved and Peter pushed it in.

…

Jack felt that Peter and Anna were enthusiastic, which was probably related to the fact that he gave Rainy shampoo, and they misunderstood that he was pursuing their daughter.

In the orphanage, Rainy did not speak abnormally, which was different from her parents, and the skin on their necks was normal and wrinkle-free.

Of course, Jack would not enter the bedroom.

"Uncle, please let her come out. I'll wait in the living room."

As soon as the voice fell, the bedroom door rang and seemed to open. Rainy, wearing floral pajamas, walked out with her hair dishevelled.

At this time, Peter walked into the bathroom, and Anna also walked into the bathroom.

Jack stood up, and Rainy sat quietly at the other end of the sofa, with a yellow comb hanging on her hair.

Obviously, she was combing her hair just now.
