Chapter 3：Hair

Something unexpected caught me off guard. My parents and younger sister all fainted and couldn't be roused.

At that moment, I was convinced that the woman was going to harm me. I didn't have time to think much, so I quickly called an ambulance to take my parents to the hospital first.

Oil bar was still acting stupid, so I yelled at him, "You go to the hospital and watch my parents, I'll go find my sister."

He didn't dare say anything when he saw my anger, and hurriedly followed the doctor.

I drove to the city on my motorcycle, where my sister was studying.

Once I arrived, I immediately called my sister's homeroom teacher, who came to pick me up and took me directly to the hospital.

I was so panicked that when I got there, I saw my sister lying there like a dead person.

Later, when I calmed down, the doctor told me that she was unconscious and might have become a vegetable.

I said, "How could she become a vegetable all of a sudden?" The doctor said that he couldn't find a reason, but that it was indeed the symptom of a vegetable.

I almost went crazy. On the one hand, I was worried to death, and on the other hand, I was shocked and angry to death. What the hell did that bitch do?

My parents didn't come to any conclusion either. The county doctor also said that she had become a vegetable.

I couldn't accept this result. After that, I spent a lot of money to bring my parents to the city hospital for a re-examination, but the result was still a vegetable.

My parents and younger sister have all become vegetative.

I dare not leave the hospital, and I just keep watching over them all day, asking the doctors to check them again and again, but the results are always the same.

oil bar also came over, and now I finally have the chance to tell him what happened. He was very surprised when he heard: "You mean that woman harmed your family? No way, how could something like that happen?"

I don't want to believe it either, but I can't think of anything else.

Oil bar panicked: "If someone else really did this to you, then I'm afraid it's going to be a problem. Think about it: you gave her all four sets of burial clothes, and your family members immediately became vegetative. One set of burial clothes is six days apart, so will you also become a vegetable after six days?"

I was shocked when he guessed this, it's possible. I've already been in the hospital for three days, so that's three days left?

I said no, I have to find that woman. Oil bar grabbed me by the arm: "It's getting dark, you should rest for the night, take a shower or something, look at the state you're in. You can look for her tomorrow, I'll keep an eye on your family, it's my fault."

Oil bar was very apologetic, and I didn't have the energy to scold him, the truth was I'd barely slept for days.

I forced myself to rest, and Oil Bar stayed up with me. The next day, when I woke up, I saw him dozing in the hospital corridor.

I didn't wake him up, and I went to Luce Town on my motorcycle.

I didn't know where to start, and I thought that in four days I might become a vegetable, so time was running out.

I asked people all over the county about the woman, but strangely, no one had seen her.

I was almost desperate, so I went back to the mansion to take another look. The mansion was still deathly quiet, the security tape was still in place, and there was not a single person in sight.

I had a hunch that the shroud might be related to the death of someone in the mansion, but what could I do?

In the midst of my panic and anxiety, a motorcycle pulled up next to me, and a woman wearing a helmet on the back of it shouted at me, "What are you doing here again?"

I looked over and saw it was the woman from the gravestone shop. Her eyes were particularly bright, and she kept staring at me.

I forced a smile and said I was just looking around. I didn't have time to waste, and I'd better leave without any clues.

I was about to go when the woman suddenly called out to me, "Wait, there's something wrong with you."

I said, 'What's wrong?' She took off her helmet, revealing a capable and pretty face.

At this moment, I actually froze for a moment, because this woman was really very heroic, and she was kind of a handsome beauty.

But I was only stunned for a moment. I have no desire to admire beautiful women right now.

"Last time I saw you, I felt that there was something wrong with you, but I wasn't sure. This time, you are completely wrong. Gee, damn it."

If someone had said this to me in the past, I would have cursed, but now I felt a little cold. I hurriedly asked what was wrong with me.

She came over and looked at me carefully, then suddenly reached out and scratched the hair by my ear: "Have you cut your hair yourself recently?"

I said no, and she pointed at my ear and said, "You're missing a tuft of hair here, someone cut it off."

I froze when I heard this, and quickly looked in the motorcycle mirror. It was true, there was clearly a large tuft of hair missing, and the sides were no longer symmetrical.

"I don't know if you've heard of this before, but hair has a spirit. Someone cutting your hair definitely wants to harm you. Maybe someone is holding a scarecrow and poking it at you right now, and that scarecrow is you."

She explained to me, although her tone was quite relaxed, but I could see that she looked quite serious.

I completely believed her now. I said, "Who would cut my hair?" She shrugged her shoulders and said, "How would I know? Who approaches you? When you fall asleep, they just snip it off."

I was stunned. Who approaches me...oil bar?

I felt a chill in my heart and had to doubt him. Previously, he had even given the coffin to that woman.

To be honest, I really didn't want to suspect him, but he was the only one who had approached me. I slept like a log last night, so he could have easily cut my hair.

I immediately called oil bar, but there was no answer. My fingers were shaking a little. Could it really be him?

I calmed myself and said, "I'm going back now, thank you." The handsome woman sighed when she saw me like this, "I can see you're in trouble. Call me Ana. If you need anything, come see me. I'm from George Road Gravestones. But I charge for it, and I'm only half-baked, so don't expect too much."

I thanked him again and rushed to the hospital. When I arrived, I looked around, but there was no trace of Oil Bar.

I asked the doctor, who also said he didn't know when Oil Bar had left.

I gritted my teeth with hatred and began to be sure that Oil Bar was also harming me. I felt like I had been tricked, and they were all harming me.

I took a deep breath to calm down and suppressed my anger. There was no way I was going to catch oil bar. If he had harmed me, he would have long since fled and I would never catch him. I couldn't waste any more time.

I went to the hospital room to check on my parents and sister. They were still in a vegetative state. It broke my heart to see them like that, and then I suddenly noticed that the hair next to their ears had also been cut.

I felt a chill run down my spine. Oil bar had cut the hair of my entire family!

I didn't dare to leave the hospital, I was really afraid that something else would happen. But I was also afraid that I would become a vegetable too, and then my family would be finished.

So I went to find two nurses and gave them a few thousand dollars to keep an eye on my family for me, not to let their guard down for a moment, and to call me immediately if they noticed anything unusual.

They agreed, and that was all I could do. I really had no other choice.

After giving them my instructions, I immediately went to Luce to find that Ana.

The George Road Cemetery Shop is quite large, unlike my family's shop which only sells coffins. There are three staff members inside, and I saw Ana fiddling with her phone when I entered.

I hurried over to call her, and she looked serious when she saw me coming and gestured for me to go outside with her to talk.

I went outside with her, and she asked me what was wrong. I said that a lock of my family's hair had been cut, and I had no idea what to do.

Ana was shocked: "Your family was targeted too? No way, who has that kind of power?"

I said, "What ability? It was a friend of mine who did it. Fuck!"

Ana shook her head and said, 'I don't mean cutting hair. I mean using hair. Usually it's used to harm someone. Harming so many people can easily harm oneself. Not someone with great ability would dare to do this."

I didn't understand, so I asked, 'What should I do now?" Ana surprisingly said, "Well... I told you I'm only half-baked. Now this is a scary thing for you. I dare not help you, and I can't help you."

I thought she wanted money, and cursed inwardly, "If you help me, I can sell the house and give you the money. The house is worth $500,000."

Ana gave a bitter smile and said, "I really can't help you. You think I'm taking advantage of the situation?"

I could tell she wasn't being dramatic, and my heart sank. This woman seemed to know what she was doing, but she felt that the situation was too serious for her to help me.

Then I'm as good as dead, right? I gritted my teeth and felt full of despair.

Ana looked at me and sighed again: "Forget it, forget it. You tell me everything, and I'll give you some advice, but I really can't help you."

Now there was nothing left to do but try to save the situation, so I told her everything, starting with the first coffin and going into every detail.

She didn't say anything for a while after I finished, and then she said, puzzled, "Coffins, hair, and six days. This is a big move. I've never heard of anything like it."

Her implication was that she couldn't even give me an opinion. I scratched my hair hard, and the stabbing pain woke me up a little. I said, "Well, the four members of the Niedam family died, and I feel that it has something to do with this. Can you help me with some advice?"

Ana frowned. She said that it was indeed quite strange, and it was possible that there was a connection.

I didn't dare to disturb her, and watched her think. Finally, she said with deliberation, "If you have the courage, go to the Niedam house and take a look, and try your luck. But I have to tell you clearly, someone must want to harm you, and I'm afraid that if you go to the Niedam house, it will be a bad omen."

Ana was also just coming up with ideas, but I had to do it. I didn't dare to waste any more time.

I said, 'Okay, I'll go right away.' She nodded, "Then hurry up, or it will be even more frightening when it gets dark."
