I don't know why I called uncle, maybe it's a little suspicious in my heart, maybe it's just my instinctive nervous reaction. Although the uncle didn't know why my temperament changed so much, he still stood there and stopped, his expression became unusually serious, and asked me: "What's the matter? What did you see?"
I ignored the uncle and stared at the corpse in the pool.
The corpse was lying in the pool, and I was very clear about some simple death characteristics. The corpse's lips and skin color had become visibly pale and stiff. So I am absolutely sure that this is a corpse that has been dead for a long time. Fortunately, the pool was not filled with water, otherwise it would be difficult to distinguish the corpse once it was swollen.
I looked up at the uncle, and then at the corpse, and found that the corpse was not only dressed the same as the uncle in front of me, but even his shoulder bag was exactly the same. The only difference was that the body in the pool was not touched. Full of dirt.
The body has been dead for at least two days, and I only met the uncle this evening. If the uncle in front of me is fake, then all this seems to be able to explain it. All that happened and experienced along the way was written, directed and acted by him. There are no so-called opponents, they are just lies written by him alone, the purpose is to get close to me and win my trust.
I began to feel scared, and gradually took a few steps back. "Don't pretend anymore! Who are you? Why are you approaching me?" I don't know how a useless ghost like me can be worthy of other people's trouble approaching myself.
For my uncharacteristic questioning, the uncle also seemed a little at a loss. The uncle looked into my eyes, and then sighed deeply: "Some things do not need to be explained by others. Only after you experience them will you truly understand. Since you doubt me, I have nothing to say. Say, let's not live here! You! Take care... "The uncle's tone is still so cold, and he can't even hear the mood swings. After speaking, he turned around and walked out of the villa.
I didn't expect the uncle to leave without any explanation. Looking at the leaving figure of Uncle Muran, I was silent for a while, and I didn't know what it was like. I know that I guessed wrong. With such extraordinary skill and ability, what would he do to me! But I didn't speak to stop him, I knew I couldn't stop him, and I think he was right. Some things have to be experienced by myself, and then I will understand them after facing them.
My gaze returned to the corpse in the pool. I don’t know if he is true or false, but whether he is true or false, I don’t want him to end up as a mob in the wild, but I don’t have the energy to help him. When I was buried, I took off my coat and covered his facial features, hoping that he could catch his eyes.
I looked back at the place where the shadow flashed just now. It is absolutely wishful thinking to chase after him to find that figure now.
But I still want to go and take a look, because the backyard has nothing but the parking lot. I was actually very scared inside, and it was the first time I encountered such a weird thing. At this moment, I have forgotten death. It is not that I am not afraid of death, but that I know that fear and cowardice cannot face problems.
……
The backyard is still the same as what I just saw outside, the empty concrete floor, silent and empty. The independent garage is still tightly locked there. Now I don't want to study where the figure has gone, let alone unlock the garage door by myself.
In such an environment, I don't know how many things are true and how many are false. After thinking about it in place, I went back again.
"Huh..." Since it's here, let's go. After taking a deep breath, I walked toward the door of the villa boldly.
"Ding Dong..." There was a doorbell device in front of the door. Out of politeness, I still pressed the doorbell gently.
My head is almost blank now, and I don't know if the behavior I am doing comes from my own heart or the instinctive reaction of my brain's nerves.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, come in quickly..."
When I stood in the doorway thinking in a daze, a sound suddenly rang in my ears, which directly pulled me back to reality in shock. This voice is very sharp, very soft, and it should be from a woman.
The sound came from all around me, and I immediately looked around me vigilantly, but did not find anyone or any audio equipment.
"Boom..." When I was still looking around, the door in front of me had already opened.
The domineering double doors slowly opened towards the inner sides. Such a huge double door, I don't know whether it was opened manually or fully automatic.
"Welcome to Mr. Lin..."
"Welcome to Mr. Lin..." a woman in a servant's dress, after seeing my figure, immediately showed a professional smile and respectfully bowed to me and shouted.
At first glance, there were at least a dozen servants. Such a grand scene seemed to be really a big family.
Since it’s settled, I still have to face it. No matter who the other person is, I think he (she) should ask me, otherwise, if he wants to harm me, he doesn’t need to spend so much time and effort. trouble. So I adjusted my collar, and then walked in calmly.
The villa is very large, and in the center of the hall is a luxurious mahogany dining table that can accommodate a dozen people at the same time. On the wall directly above the dining table, there is a huge portrait hung, estimated to be about seventy inches. The portrait is a colorful oil painting depicting a handsome middle-aged man with a beard. The handsome face, thick eyebrows and big eyes set off his perfect facial features.
There are stairs leading upstairs on the left and right. The stairs are also made of high-quality mahogany and covered with elegant red carpets.
The wall decorations are also very luxurious and elegant, giving people a very comfortable and warm feeling. The only regret is that it may be because of the large space here, and it feels very cold to stand here.
"Mr. Lin, our host is still changing clothes upstairs. I will come down soon. Please sit here for a while!" Seeing me standing there, one of the maids gracefully moved the chair of the dining table and said He said to me with a smile, motioning for me to sit down.
Although I didn't want to sit, looking at her sweet smile, I was ashamed to refuse, so after nodding to her, I sat down.
When these servants saw me sitting down, they all stood behind me, as if waiting for my instructions at any time.
But after a short wait, I didn't wait for the master to come down, but let me smell the fragrant scent of vegetables.
I thought it was an olfactory illusion when I was hungry and dizzy. But then, from the small room on both sides of the stairs, a few people wearing chef costumes walked towards here with stainless steel cutlery in their hands.
The tableware was placed on the table with a familiar and sophisticated movement, and then the person immediately stepped back.
"Mr. Lin, you have worked so hard on this journey. This is a wind-receiving ceremony specially prepared for you by my host. Please enjoy your face and taste." After the chef stepped back, a maid behind him immediately stood up and faced him. I said with a smile on my face, and while talking, I opened the lid of the tableware in front of me with my hands, and introduced to me: "This is a large row of specially selected New Zealand calves that have not yet reached the full moon. In order to ensure the ingredients The freshness is the ingredients that were delivered by air immediately after being slaughtered in New Zealand. The meat is very delicious. Please taste it."
Since my departure from noon until now, I just ate some snacks given by my uncle when I was at the top of the mountain. Now that I saw such a tempting delicacy in front of me, my saliva was rolling in my throat unconsciously.
But I have no appetite at all, or that is, I dare not eat their food. Yes, I am not hungry or not wanting to eat, but I dare not eat.
I am afraid that the so-called steak in front of me is not a steak, and even I am even more afraid. These graceful beauties in front of me are not real beauties.
I suppressed my appetite, smiled with difficulty and politely declined: "Thank you, a great steak, but I'm not hungry yet!"
The maid did not expect that I would refuse such expensive and rare delicacies. She looked at me with an unbelievable face. When she was about to tell me not to miss it, a beautiful and gentle voice suddenly came from the stairs. Voice: "Are these ingredients not suitable for Mr. Lin's appetite? If they are, then I will order someone to redo it immediately!"
Apart from me, the maids standing on both sides also looked over. Even the maids who were still serving me immediately returned to the queue and looked at the master of the voice together. , But their eyes seemed to be full of awe. After looking at each other, these maids immediately lowered their heads, put their hands on their knees, and stood respectfully.
And after seeing this face, I was shocked and sat up from the seat, with an unbelievable look and tone: "It's you!!!" It's not that my performance was too intense, but because of this moment. The seemingly majestic woman is the girl who rides me on the roadside in the evening. Although she has drastically changed both her dressing and her eyes, as a private detective, I am not forgetting that it is the most basic skill for everyone. So I will never admit that she is the girl, maybe I should no longer call her a girl, because looking at her at the moment, she should be the mistress here. (End of this chapter)
