015 Banshee and mourning

The tomb area in the south area of Anderson's house was located southwest of the residence, which was separated by woods. Usually, few people came here. After all, few people were willing to visit the graves of criminals and anonymous. The whole tomb was divided into four parks, East, West, North, and South, and each circle was separated by a fence. Although the iron fence was used, for the reason of respecting or fearing the dead, even the Anderson family rarely came to visit. These iron bars were still intact, except for some rust.

Mrs. Quinn's car was driving on the road between the North and South cemetery. Continue to the west, on the west side of the North cemetery, was the destination of this line - the church.

Worthy of being a luxury limousine, the bumps in Benjamin's car turned into tiny floats in Mrs. Quinn's car. There was no discomfort except lethargy.

Mrs. Quinn tilted her head and looked at the South Garden outside the window.

Ryan sat in the car, a little embarrassed.

The reason was also very simple. There were many "rubble" in the North Garden and weeds in the South Garden.

According to Federal Customs, criminals were generally buried in the north, which was said to be to get close to the church and atone for their sins. The main customers of Anderson's funeral home were criminals who died in prison. As for the rubble, it was a tombstone carved by Benjamin himself. Because they were sinners, prison officials never cared what their tombstones will look like. If the cost of cremation was not higher than the lowest "standard" burial, they wished these sinners had no bones!

However, in the East, West, and South garden areas for ordinary people to be buried, weeds spread and trees grew horizontally due to neglect. In recent years, Ryan can count the times that ordinary people come to Anderson's South area with one hand.

"Good, good." There was a smile on Mrs. Quinn's wrinkled face.

Ryan didn't know whether to be happy or depressed. He had attracted a strange old woman. Well, Mrs. Quinn's great image was completely broken when she said that word in Ryan's ear! I'm afraid her smile was happy: the funeral must last longer than the rest of her life so that she won't see the proud face of her grandson Poche before she closes her eyes!

Between the two grandparents, Ryan didn't know whether it was more distorted that "grandson" wants "grandma" to die early, or that "grandma" wants "grandson" to live in pain.

In order to find a cause and effect in this intertwined distortion, Ryan took Alice with him.

The vampire looked at the Banshee who had shrunk aside after meeting Mrs. Quinn and asked her with his eyes, "do you see?"

Alice sat in the big soft seat. Even though it was very warm in the car, she hugged her shoulders and shivered.

Mrs. Quinn turned back and noticed Alice's trembling, wrinkled face, and the strange smile disappeared. She raised her finger to the blanket next to her and pointed to Alice again. The nurse understood the lady's meaning, picked up the blanket, folded it, and covered Alice.

"I've seen too many children like you." Mrs. Quinn looked at Alice with some pity and then at Ryan: "you look like a very reliable person, but you're not a good brother."

Ryan didn't expect that Mrs. Quinn would suddenly talk about himself. He was a little confused. He leaned over and asked respectfully, "why does Mrs. Quinn say that?"

"Because your sister Alice, she is in fear!" Mrs. Quinn stretched out her hand to hold Alice.

Alice looked at Ryan at a loss. Ryan nodded slightly. Alice moved her body and leaned against Mrs. Quinn. The withered arm encircled Alice and caressed her up and down.

Ryan still looks puzzled and looks at Mrs. Quinn. He was waiting for an explanation.

Mrs. Quinn looked back at Ryan: "tell me, have you seen the eyes of those children after too many deaths?"

Alice, nestled in Mrs. Quinn's thin arms, was stunned.

"Oh, poor girl. Don't be afraid..." Mrs. Quinn patted Alice on the back and comforted the frightened Banshee.

Of course, Mrs. Quinn didn't know that the person in her arms was a banshee, who can see the dead! So Ryan's surprise was no less than Alice's!

"Your sister has such eyes! She's afraid!" Mrs. Quinn stared into Ryan's pale green eyes. "And you ignored your sister's fear! She's only sixteen! She should discuss magazine stars, Liszt street clothes with girls her age at school! Not in this dead cemetery!"

Ryan raised his eyebrows. He didn't keep up with Mrs. Quinn's thinking.

"Mrs. Quinn, I don't understand. Why do you say that Alice has seen too many deaths?" That's what he cares about.

"Because I spent more than ten years helping such children!" Mrs. Quinn sighed. At this time, she seemed to be separated from the distortion of her heart and became an ordinary old man: "the initial death came from the children's relatives, grandparents, parents, brothers, and then the people around them, maybe neighbors, maybe teachers..."

Mrs. Ryan was aware of the changes that her children experienced in the era of war.

"Until it's a street corner, people who have never spoken, strangers in the street... Adults will become numb, but children won't. everyone buried underground is a shadow, which is like a net covering children's eyes."

Mrs. Quinn took Alice in her arms and went on.

"This net reminds these children that every person they see today and everybody temperature they feel will disappear one day. Maybe tomorrow or even tonight, it will become cold and marked with death..."

Ryan's eyes opened wide and his expression was a little stunned. And Alice always tightened her shoulders opened, and she put her thin hands around Mrs. Quinn's back!

Alice never holds anyone other than Ryan!

"Although the war is over, ordinary children have got rid of such fear. But your sister is still shrouded in death!"

Mrs. Quinn looked at the whole desolate tomb area.

"Your sister is being tortured by this net! She is isolated from the outside world by this net, afraid to contact anyone, and closes her heart! This is her fear!" Mrs. Quinn felt Alice's initiative, stroked Alice's back, and still stared at Ryan: "but you ignored it! So you may be a good person, but you're not a good brother! What kind of brother would put his sister in the cemetery to grow up!"

Ryan looks down. He's thinking. Vampires took in banshees because of the sympathy of the same alien race. The reason why Alice will stay with vampires was also very simple. Vampires are people who have died once. The death Alice 'saw' in him was actually a rebirth. This little comfort made the Banshee follow Ryan.

Before Mrs. Quinn said these words, Ryan never thought about what was behind Alice's anxiety.

"Here we are, madam." The car had stopped. Mrs. Quinn patted Alice on the shoulder and looked out of the window at the church. A priest in an old robe was waiting outside the door.

After getting off the car, Ryan made an excuse not to disturb Mrs. Quinn's conversation with the priest and walked with Alice to the deserted forest.

"Alice, is what Mrs. Quinn said true?" Ryan took Alice's shoulder and asked.

Alice hesitated but nodded.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Ryan frowned.

Vampires didn't mean 'talking about the stars in magazines' or' clothes on Liszt Street ', but the fear of intersection with others after seeing death.

Alice hugged Ryan and shook her head in his arms.

Even if I did, I couldn't change the fact that Alice could see death. Mrs. Quinn's sharp observation saw the beginning, but went the wrong way and came to a conclusion that seemed ridiculous to vampires.

"I just want a home where I can live safely," Alice said in Ryan's arms.

However, Ryan had made a decision. In the future, he should read the materials of MR Quinn and his wife in helping wartime orphans. Mrs. Quinn was right. Alice was only 16 years old and should not live in fear (cemetery).

Alice withdrew from Ryan's arms, hung her head, and her voice trembled: "I see Mrs. Quinn's future."

The future in Alice's words only represents death.

"What happened?" Ryan asked softly. Alice didn't like to describe the process of other people's death, and now it can be seen that Alice was close to Mrs. Quinn. But because of this, if they wanted to change the 'future', they must know the process before the change!

Alice raised her head and Ryan saw the anger. "It's Poche!"

As Ryan led Alice to the church, our vampires were thinking about how to save Mrs. Quinn's life. And I'll take advantage of the gap between vampire thinking and explain to you why Alice added 'mourning' before her race——Banshee.

Because death is a continuous process. We may be bitten by an insignificant insect, ignore the red light at the intersection, jump into the cold lake without warming up, just order a fried chicken at the fried chicken shop on the corner every day, or light a cigarette driven by nicotine addiction.

For banshees, death is never sudden. It begins with a small event that no one will notice. Only banshees can 'see'. Mrs. Quinn regarded Alice as an ordinary girl, so she was wrong. For Alice, she knows when the people around her will become cold and buried underground because she can see the whole process of death!

So when the Banshee says to you, 'watch your way, don't drink after sunset...', you'd better obey. But when people didn't follow, the Banshee's reminder became a prophecy.

'don't listen to them! She will curse you!... "

When people distort the cause and effect of the Banshee's words, 'mourning' is crowned in front of the Banshee.

Back to Mrs. Quinn.

Her death began half a year ago when Poche dropped a drop of liquid in her black tea. For half a year, Mrs. Quinn's scene has been changing and the people around her have been changing. The next midnight, the foreign matter produced by the drug will block Mrs. Quinn's heart!
