The weather is getting colder and colder after the New Year. Zhou Jiayu is like a bear that needs to hibernate. His clothes are getting thicker and heavier, and his movements are getting slower and slower. However, he felt that he was a lot stronger than last year, because at least when it was cold, he could stay warm in Lin Zhushui's arms.
The New Year's Eve dinner was cooked by Zhou Jiayu and a few apprentices. Of course, it was Zhou Jiayu's spoon. The dishes were all the favorite types. The weasel's fur was also changed into thick winter clothes, which felt very good to the touch. Xiao Zhi shamelessly leaned on its body and plucked its fur every day.
Zhou Jiayu also persuaded a few words at first, afraid that Xiao Zhi would bald the weasel again, but seeing that the weasel himself didn't care, he didn't take it to heart anymore.
As the New Year was approaching, more and more people came to the Lin family to pay New Year's greetings. Most of them were stopped outside, but some were able to come in. For example, Lin Po's father, Lin Zhushui's nominal brother, came here.
However, the process of getting along with Lin Zhushui after he came was not pleasant. Lin Zhushui regarded him as air the whole time, so Lin Jue had to say hello. Lin Po's father was also unhappy when he saw Lin Zhushui's attitude, but he couldn't attack. When it was time for dinner, Lin Zhushui said, "It's noon."
In this case, the next sentence of ordinary people is probably to stay here for a meal, but Lin Zhushui is obviously not an ordinary person, so he lightly opened his thin lips, and said lightly: "Please, I will not let you eat. "
This is going to drive people away. Lin Po's father's face is ashen. The worst thing is that no one in the room dares to smooth things out. Even Lin Jue is pretending to be playing on his mobile phone and not answering.
So in the end, Lin Po's father left angrily, and Zhou Jiayu said in a low voice, "Everyone, come and eat, I made squirrel mandarin fish and braised lamb chops..."
As soon as I heard the name of the dish, the solidified atmosphere in the room instantly cheered.
Regarding the relationship between Lin Zhushui and the Lin family, Lin Jue quietly told Zhou Jiayu the details one night. It turned out that Lin Zhushui's parents wanted to buy time after finding out that there was a problem with Lin Zhushui's physique, so they asked the Lin family for a precious ancient jade. That ancient jade can restrain Lin Zhushui's extremely positive physique and give them more time to save Lin Zhushui.
Who knew that the Lin family refused directly after hearing the couple's request, and the head of the Lin family said that Lin Zhushui's life could not be changed at all, and it was a waste to use this ancient jade. Under such circumstances, Lin Zhushui's parents took the risk and used an extremely dangerous method to change Lin Zhushui's fate and at the same time lost their own lives.
"What exactly is that method, we still don't know." Lin Jue said, "After this happened, it became a hurdle in Zhushui's heart, and I couldn't get close to the Lin family again."
Zhou Jiayu felt a little uncomfortable after listening to it. Lin Zhushui's parents obviously paid a heavy price for him to live past the 18th century, and they didn't know if they would know that their wish was fulfilled after they left this world.
"If you have nothing to do, just run to Zhushui." Lin Jue said, "There are too many people here, and it's not easy to handle."
Zhou Jiayu was shocked: "Operation??"
Lin Jue was obviously an old driver, and he read these two words word by word: "Fuck, do."
Zhou Jiayu made a gesture of admiration with clasped fists towards Lin Jue.
Zhou Jiayu has no experience in this area. He has heard of it, but he has never practiced it. With Lin Jue's reminder, he privately wants to learn more about this aspect. So I quietly wanted to download some related videos online to train myself.
However, as a person who doesn't usually watch movies, Zhou Jiayu searched for a long time and couldn't find a place to get started. In desperation, he could only ask Xu Ruizang vaguely. Xu Ruizhuang is also gay, and he must know better than him. many.
After hearing what Zhou Jiayu wanted, Xu Rinhuang asked, "Who are you with?"
Zhou Jiayu said, "Guess."
Xu Ruizhuang said, "Fuck, don't fucking tell me that you and Lin Zhushui are together."
Zhou Jiayu: "Well..."
Xu Rinwang sent a row of exclamation marks, and finally gave a thumbs up.
Zhou Jiayu said, "So, do you have that?"
Xu Rui asked, "Which country do you want?"
Zhou Jiayu said: "It's fine." After he finished speaking, he added, "First, be a little more euphemistic." As soon as it came up, it was too exciting. He was afraid that he would not be able to control himself.
Xu Ruan hummed and sent Zhou Jiayu a few URLs. Zhou Jiayu slowly moved the mouse up and clicked on the URL.
The web page opened, and a pair of boys sitting on the bed appeared. As the progress bar moved forward, Zhou Jiayu's breathing became a little thicker, and the roots of his ears became red. He paused, smoked a cigarette, and then Just come back to the screen.
That night, Zhou Jiayu went to the toilet three times and had a dream. In the dream, Lin Zhushui was also there. He lay beside Zhou Jiayu and looked at him tenderly.
The pair of eyes that had been closed also opened, and in the black pupils, there was a drowning tenderness. Zhou Jiayu hugged him, feeling like his body was on fire, he called out Mr.'s name in a low voice, and his soul was melted by the scorching temperature.
When Zhou Jiayu woke up the next day, he was not surprised to find that his trousers were wet. He hurried downstairs to wash his trousers, but unfortunately, he met Shen Yiqiong who was running in the morning in the toilet.
Shen Yiqiong was also an adolescent with excessive energy. When he saw Zhou Jiayu washing his pants, he showed a clear expression and said, "Whom did you meet in a dream last night?"
Zhou Jiayu gave him a faint glance.
After Shen Yiqiang scratched his head, he suddenly said, "...It's not a little sister, but a little brother?"
Zhou Jiayu remained silent.
Shen Yiqiong's expression stiffened: "Could it be Mr...."
Zhou Jiayu threw his pants angrily: "If you talk nonsense again, eat your own noodles at noon."
Shen Yiqiong made a gesture of zipping his mouth and hurried away.
Because of last night's dream, Zhou Jiayu felt embarrassed when he saw Lin Zhushui, although the two had established a relationship and had already kissed. But seeing the real person always thinks of Lin Zhushui in the dream last night, Zhou Jiayu lowered his head and kept digging rice into his mouth, not daring to raise his head at all.
He was digging, but the phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. Zhou Jiayu pressed the call button: "Hello."
"Your package has arrived." It was the courier.
"Package?" Probably because Xiao Jinlong gave them too much shadow before, and Zhou Jiayu felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the word "package". He said, "Don't give it to me, I didn't buy anything..."
"It was sent by Mr. Xu Jinghuo." The courier added.
As soon as Zhou Jiayu heard Xu Jinghuo's name, his expression froze for a moment, but he was relieved: "Then you can put it at the guard's place."
"Okay." The courier hung up the phone.
Zhou Jiayu put down the phone and said hesitantly, "It's the courier, saying that Xu Jinghuo sent me a package."
Obviously everyone is very sensitive to names, and the movement of eating food stopped instantly. Lin Jue frowned: "Xu Jinghuo? Why did he send you a package?"
"I don't know, I'm not familiar with him." Zhou Jiayu said, "I asked the courier to put the package at the door. I'll go over and take a look."
"I'm with you." Lin Zhushui put down his chopsticks and stood up.
Zhou Jiayu didn't try to be brave. After all, if there was anything strange in the package, Lin Zhushui would definitely find it first.
At the door, Zhou Jiayu saw the package in the courier's mouth. It was a tiny package that looked like a notebook.
Zhou Jiayu squeezed it in his hand. It felt like a hard box. Lin Zhushui reached out to him: "Show me."
Zhou Jiayu handed over the package.
Lin Zhushui took the package and checked it briefly, "There is nothing dirty, open it."
Zhou Jiayu got the permission of Lin Zhushui, so he removed the outer skin of the package. After peeling the outer skin, a small wooden box was revealed inside. of.
"It's a box." Zhou Jiayu studied it for a while, and found a small button on the top of the box, "There seems to be something inside."
Lin Zhushui said, "I'll come."
Zhou Jiayu handed the box to Lin Zhushui.
Lin Zhushui moved his fingers slightly and pressed the button on the box. With a click, a small drawer popped out of the box. Zhou Jiayu saw Lin Zhushui take out the contents of the small drawer.
"Paper?" Lin Zhushui frowned slightly, as if he didn't understand what it was.
Zhou Jiayu took the paper and found that the wooden box contained a thin piece of kraft paper. The color of the paper showed an old yellow color. It seemed to be torn from something. Uneven. Zhou Jiayu looked up and down, but didn't see anything special: "There is nothing on the paper."
Lin Zhushui fell into deep thought, obviously thinking about something.
Zhou Jiayu didn't dare to disturb him, so he stood quietly beside him. After a while, Lin Zhushui said, "Go back first."
"Well." Zhou Jiayu nodded.
Everyone in the family was very curious about what Xu Jinghuo had sent to Zhou Jiayu. After seeing the plain kraft paper, they all showed a confused expression.
"Why did you send the paper?" Lin Jue took the paper and studied it for a while, but found nothing unusual on the paper. It seemed like an ordinary piece of paper with no other aura.
"I don't know." Zhou Jiayu didn't understand either. He was not familiar with Xu Jinghuo, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Lin Zhushui's finger pointed at the table, but he didn't speak.
It wasn't until everyone discussed it for a while that he said, "Keep it for now. Since he sent you this thing, it should be of any use."
Zhou Jiayu thought that was the only way. So he put the paper back in the wooden box and carefully locked it in the cabinet in his room.
This package seems to be just an insignificant episode, which has not brought any changes to their lives.
As the year passed, Lin Zhushui became busy again, and more and more people began to ask him for help. Some people could stop them, while others had to accept them.
For example, Lin Zhushui has been showing pictures to a young girl these days.
"Mr. Lin, can you help me find out about the marriage?" The girl asked a question that most young girls are worried about.
Lin Zhushui squeezed the girl's hand lightly, and then let go: "Do you have any animals at home?"
"Animals?" The girl thought about it for a while, "I like animals and have quite a few... both cats and dogs."
"Something special." Lin Zhushui said.
"Special..." The girl thought about it for a while, and suddenly she had a flash of light, "Oh! I have a white fox!"
Lin Zhushui said, "Let the fox go."
The girl was a little unhappy when she heard it: "But I like that fox, it's beautiful and human..."
Lin Zhushui said, "So do you want a fox or a boyfriend?"
The girl began to tangle again, aggrieved and said that she couldn't have both.
Lin Zhushui didn't talk about love and took a sip of the tea in front of him.
In the end, the girl compromised and said that she would release the fox when she went back, and then worried that if she kept the fox for too long, it would lose its ability to hunt. It seemed that she really liked this pet.
Lin Zhushui finally said something, he said: "Foxes must be released into the wild, the farther away, the better, and don't keep such animals in the future."
"Why?" the girl asked.
"Because they will be jealous." Lin Zhushui said, "Jealous animals are sometimes scarier than people."
The girl had a scared expression when she heard the words, nodded and asked some details before getting up to say goodbye.
When Lin Zhushui was doing these things, Zhou Jiayu was standing beside him, so he could gain a little experience. This girl has a beautiful pointy forehead, and the raised corners of her eyes are standard peach blossom eyes. It is reasonable to say that peach blossom luck should be very good, but she didn't. Think of being trapped in marriage.
"Foxes also attract peach blossoms." After the girl left, Lin Zhushui taught Zhou Jiayu a lesson, "But there are too many peach blossoms, but it's easy to become evil. Everything must be done in moderation."
Zhou Jiayu nodded.
After returning from S City, Lin Jue followed up on the bone house. After calling the police, the house was demolished by the police. A total of more than 200 corpses were found. After the corpses were scattered, they were all embedded in the walls and arranged in order of the length of the bones. Although the scene was not seen, it was only Hearing this description made my scalp go numb.
This matter is too sensational, and the number of victims involved is too large. If the media knows about it, it will definitely make a big news. Fortunately, the police have done a good job of keeping secrets and have not been exposed. Although it has spread in the industry, But at least ordinary people don't know.
After a detailed investigation of the residents who lived in the house, the police also came to a conclusion similar to theirs. This bone building was the first owner, and the couple made it. It stands to reason that if you want to build such a villa, you will have to make some noise, but according to the feedback from the surrounding residents, this house can be described as quietly when it is built, and it stands up without knowing it. The couple who lived there had never been seen before.
As for real estate registration, when the house was built, the Internet was not yet developed. The police found that the names of the two people on the real estate registration record were pseudonyms at all, and there was no such a couple.
"So the murderer hasn't been found yet?" Zhou Jiayu said, "What exactly does this house do?"
"It seems to be used to suppress some dirty things." Lin Jue couldn't say it well, "Since they are gone now, it means that the suppressed things are gone, um... It's really a bit strange."
Zhou Jiayu faintly felt that this matter was not over yet.
As a result, his hunch was really accurate. A few months after leaving the S city, Jiang Xutao suddenly called Lin Jue. He didn't know what to say on the phone, but Lin Jue's brows became more and more frowning. .
"What happened?" Zhou Jiayu asked.
Lin Jue said, "Do you still remember Jiang Xutao's daughter?"
"Remember." The girl, Zhou Jiayu, was quite impressed and naturally remembered.
"She has an accident." Lin Jue's tone was a little irritable, "Isn't the bone house demolished before? It is now a ruin. Jiang Xutao said that his daughter would sneak to the ruins every night, and the next morning just came back."
"...She was stunned?" Zhou Jiayu could only think of this possibility.
"I don't know." Lin Jue said, "I guess we have to go and take a look."
"Okay." Zhou Jiayu had no objection.
Lin Zhushui naturally knew about this, but he seemed very calm after learning about the situation: "Then go take a look, there should be something special about that house that you haven't noticed."
Lin Jue said hello, so the group quickly returned to S City again.
Compared with a few months ago, Jiang Xutao's mental state looks much better. Although he is still sad because of his daughter's condition, at least there are no traces of bruises on his body, and he will not be troubled by fear.
When he saw Lin Zhushui, he was ecstatic and called out to Mr. Lin several times.
"Where's your daughter?" Lin Zhushui went straight to the point.
"In the house." Jiang Xutao said, "Her mental state is not very good..."
"Just take me there." Lin Zhushui did not hesitate.
Jiang Xutao nodded, and saw Zhou Jiayu standing behind Lin Zhushui again. He hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "You can come too, the little girl really likes the paper crane that you sent before."
Zhou Jiayu nodded in flattery.
Then the two followed Jiang Xutao into the room and saw Ya Ya in the corner of the room.
Compared with a few months ago, Ya Ya looks thinner, and her originally fair and round face has become a pointy chin. She sat silently in the corner of the room, holding the doll in her arms, sitting with her head lowered.
"Ya Ya." Jiang Xutao called out softly.
Ya Ya raised her head and saw Zhou Jiayu and Lin Zhushui. After seeing the two of them, her expression did not change much, and she lowered her head again.
"Ya Ya." Jiang Xutao said, "Is it okay to say something, uncle can help you solve it..."
Ya Ya did not speak.
Jiang Xutao spoke a few more words of persuasion. Just when Zhou Jiayu thought she would be silent until the end, Ya Ya spoke slowly and said, "They want to find something."
"Something?" Jiang Xutao wondered, "What?"
Ya Ya shook her head: "I don't know either, all I know is that it's a black box buried under the house."
"The black box?" Jiang Xutao was confused, "Who are they..." He wanted to ask again, but was stopped by Lin Zhushui.
"Take us directly to the ruins of the house." Lin Zhushui said.
Jiang Xutao hesitated for a while, but agreed with Lin Zhushui's proposal, picked Ya Ya up, and went to the ruins.
On the way there, Ya Ya didn't speak the whole time, her expression didn't seem to be afraid or expecting, but rather numb.
Zhou Jiayu was a little worried when he saw her like this.
The area of the villa has been sealed off since the accident, but Jiang Xutao should have something to do with the police, so he went in after a fight with someone.
The Bone House Villa has been demolished, leaving only a piece of ruins. Among the ruins, Ya Ya seems to be attracted by something and wants to go to the center. But Jiang Xutao was afraid that she would be injured, so he held her and didn't let go.
"There is something, there is something below." Ya Ya cried, trying to break free from Jiang Xutao's arms.
When Lin Zhushui heard the words, he stepped forward slowly and walked into a piece of mud that had been turned over. He picked up a piece of steel bar next to him and started digging the soil. Zhou Jiayu and Shen Yiqiong hurried over to help when they saw it.
The soil is a little hard, and it is a little laborious to dig, even a few big men, it is a little laborious to dig.
When they were digging the soil, Ya Ya watched expectantly, with an excited expression on her face.
Half an hour later, several people were sweating. Zhou Jiayu took out a tissue and helped Lin Zhushui wipe his forehead and temples naturally.
Shen Yi looked at Zhou Jiayu desperately, and was ruthlessly rejected by Zhou Jiayu: "Do it yourself."
Shen Yiqiong showed a resentful look on his face, saying that you have changed.
Zhou Jiayu said I was bent.
Shen Yiqiong: "..."
They have already dug a little deep. If it wasn't for Lin Zhushui who chose this place, I'm afraid Zhou Jiayu would suspect that he had dug in the wrong place. After they dug for another ten minutes, they finally found something. Zhou Jiayu touched something hard and he said, "There is something!"
After digging down for a while, an exquisite small iron box appeared in front of everyone.
"Box—" Zhou Jiayu quickly dug the iron box out of the soil, thinking that this was what Ya Ya was looking for.
There is a small lock hanging on the iron box. Judging from the rust marks on the outside, it has been some years.
Zhou Jiayu wiped off the stains on the iron box with paper, picked it up and shook it up and down: "It's not heavy... What's inside?"
"I'll take a look." Lin Jue said, "This lock is specially made. Without a key, it is estimated that it would have to be removed by force, but will there be any dangerous items in it, so it's okay to remove it like this?"
Lin Zhushui spit out a word: "Demolish."
So everyone went back to the house with the iron box, and after finding the tools, they started to remove the lock. This job is still from Lin Jue. From the time he went to school, Zhou Jiayu found that Lin Jue was very good at unlocking, and he didn't know when he learned this craft.
After the box was dug out, Ya Ya's mood became very calm, and she didn't take her eyes off the box for a moment.
The lock on the box was indeed a little troublesome. Lin Jue worked on it for about an hour or two, and when everyone was a little tired, they heard a light click, and the small lock on the top fell to the ground—the box opened.
"Open." Lin Jue said in surprise.
The box was removed, and everyone gathered around, very curious about the contents of the box.
Lin Jue lifted the lid of the box and saw the contents of the iron box. She was a little surprised after seeing what was inside: "This is... a photo frame?"
It was indeed a photo frame that was buckled upside down. Lin Jue reached out and picked it up and turned it over to let everyone see the details of the photo frame.
Inlaid in the frame is an old black-and-white photo of a family of three. A seven or eight-year-old boy stood in the middle with a bright smile, holding his father and mother on the left and right, and the taste of happiness could be seen from their expressions.
It's just that I don't know if the photos are too old and out of shape. Zhou Jiayu always feels that the people in the photos look a little ghostly and full of uncomfortable feelings. In particular, the parents standing on both sides had faint black spots on their faces.
"This is..." Lin Jue's expression was a little complicated, "The first owner of the villa?"
"It seems so." Zhou Jiayu said, "but didn't they always say that only the couple lives in this house? Why is there another child..."
The room was very quiet, no one answered Zhou Jiayu's question, but Ya Ya, who was hugged by Jiang Xutao, showed a bright smile at this moment.
The author has something to say: After the little paper eats, the stomach will bulge, it is a round bump, it is soft when poked, and it will unhappily move your hand away after a few more pokings. Flat ones can also wear clothes, they can be attached to the body, or they can be made by sticking two pieces of paper together, and then put them on from the head. But Xiao Zhi is a boy, and it will have a little emotion if you wear a small skirt.
