The Mystery Red Umbrella
Introgation

Lucia's state looked better, she already did not look scared anymore after getting the talisman given by Anna. The evil spirits that he saw when he realized just now were no longer there. Although he did not understand why the spirits were suddenly surrounding him as if he wanted to invite him to join them but all that was no longer there. The atmosphere looked calm, nothing more terrifying. Lucia was even leaning against the bed with a radiant face.

Nick was very relieved to see the situation of his sister, although he did not know what was given by Anna to his sister but it had given peace to Lucia. Anna was really helpful. He'll thank the agent later.

'What about you?" ask Anna. If Lucia's situation is fine then she will start interrogating the girl so that her arrival is not in vain.

"I'm fine, is it okay Miss Anna gave the amulet to me?" ask Lucia.

"It's okay" replied Anna, although she was doubtful, "But after I've solved the red umbrella case, please return it if you don't need it," he said again because he was worried that the spirit said by his mother actually came to disturb him.

"I'll give it back, I'm really grateful that you gave me the amulet" Lucia said, looking down.

"No need to think about it, now tell me how did you get followed by that spirit so he took you into the forest?" this was what she wanted to know so much and she hoped Lucia would give her important information. The spirit could not suddenly appear just like that, he suspected Lucia had done something especially young people today like to play the game Ouija. It's kind of a spirit calling game.

Lucia was silent, she looked towards her brother for a moment then she looked towards Anna but the girl then lowered her head. He looked like he was scared to say what happened.

"It's okay, I'm here to listen" Anna said, holding her hand.

"Tell me, Lucia. I won't be angry" Nick said.

"But don't say this to Mommy and Daddy" Lucia asked.

"I'm not going to say it" Nick said.

"Not to be afraid, any information you give me will be very useful to me" Anna said.

Lucia nodded, trying to remember what happened that day before the red umbrella's spirit followed her

"That day, I was invited by my friends to go to a place in a forest," said Lucia.

"Place, did you take anything from there?" anna asked to know.

"No, I didn't take anything!" answer Lucia quickly.

"If so go ahead and tell me how many people are going there" Anna asked.

"We're five, because it's crowded so I'm not afraid. Me and my four friends went to the old house in the woods and it wasn't far from school. We went there for a guts test so we went through the place without touching anything."

"How's that place?" Anna was curious.

"The place was like a house abandoned by its owner for decades, nothing strange. We even played Ouija board to try to communicate to the spirits who were there but nothing happened."

"What did you say?" Nick almost yelled because he didn't like Lucia playing that game.

"Don't be mad, Nick. Please continue, Lucia," asked Anna while Lucia nodded.

"After playing, we didn't feel anything strange in the house, but when I went to a room alone, I saw a woman waving her hand at me and the woman standing by the side of a tree outside the room. I was scared and approached my friends. I said nothing to them because I thought I was having a hallucination but I saw the figure again three times. Because I was getting scared so I brought my four best friends back, I felt very relieved after we came out of the forest but when I was about to cross the road, I was very happy, I lost consciousness and I don't remember anything anymore. I felt like my shoulders were so heavy, I also heard someone woman asking me to go to the forest like asking me to go back to that old house again" Lucia explained at length.

"That red umbrella, where did you get it from?" ask Anna.

"I don't remember, but an old grandmother gave it to me."

"Tell me then, who are your four best friends" Anna asked. A note and a pen were taken from inside the bag. He must know the circumstances of the four girls, whether they experience the things that Lucia experienced or just Lucia who was targeted by the spirit of the red umbrella.

Anna recorded every name mentioned by Lucia. He also asked for their home address to facilitate his investigation later. There was nothing she missed, she even asked for the names of Lucia's four best friends. Not only that, he asked for the location of the old house they went to because he would take Barrow to go there. Maybe he got another clue.

"Is there anything else, Lucia? I hope you're not hiding anything from me and if anything you take from that old house, give it to me. I'll give it back. Taking things that are not yours is not good, it can make you followed because the owner will be angry because you have taken his property."

"Nothing, I didn't take anything. I didn't even touch anything in that house" Lucia said.

"Well, if there isn't one, I'll find out why you were followed and why you were asked to return to that house again. I'll also find out what all four of your best friends went through there. But remember one thing, from now on don't go to that place again because it's dangerous."

"I won't go to a place like that anymore" Lucia said as she was also scared.

"If so I'll go with you to that house, Anna," Nick said.

"Thank you, take good care of Lucia. The talisman wasn't very guaranteeing so take good care of her," Anna kept her memo and pen. It seems like it's time for her to go home because Lucia's doing well.

"Where are you going?" ask Nick.

"It's time for me to go home, I'll start investigating tomorrow" Anna said as she left her seat.

"I'm taking it," said Nick.

"No, take good care of him."

"Miss Anna, thank you" said Lucia.

"Not to be afraid, I will solve this case," Anna smiled, although she knew it wasn't easy but she definitely could.

"Thank you again, Anna. I'll call you tomorrow" Nick said.

Anna smiled and nodded, time already showing at one in the morning when she left the hospital. Anna was not afraid at all but an evil figure had already scouted her from the darkness of the night, ready to take her life.
