The housekeeper took the lead in the front, and the lady's face changed from a full smile just now to a serious face, and I also showed a serious look with extreme cooperation and walked behind.
It was still broad daylight outside, and the other maids didn't know where they were. The huge courtyard was the only one of us. Under the leadership of the butler, we came to the side of the pool.
"Master, there is indeed an unnamed corpse in the pool. It is a minor managerial negligence. Please be punished by the master." When the housekeeper glanced at the pool, she was immediately panicked and turned to face her. The owner knelt down, his expression full of fear and fear.
"Professional enough. The acting is full." Seeing them acting so fascinated, I was a little suspicious of myself, so I also looked at the pool curiously. Sure enough, there was still the uncle-like body lying in the waterless pool, covered with my blue sports jacket.
At this moment, I think the only thing I have to do is to see how the two of them perform, so I didn't speak either, but looked at them like a theater.
The woman must have seen the corpse, but she also did not speak, but from her face, I could clearly feel her emotional changes. Her eyes seemed to be full of anger, fierce. Staring at the butler who fell on his knees. "I can't go down and see what's going on."
After the housekeeper heard her master's words, she immediately stood up and jumped down directly into the one-foot-high pool without thinking.
"Master!" I was really stunned to see such a strong skill of the housekeeper. It seems that as a woman can serve as a housekeeper, there are indeed two things. What’s even more commendable is that, in the face of the already a little worried and nauseous corpse, she responded calmly without changing her face, and saw that she took out a white work glove from her pocket in a very professional manner, and then Very cautiously, I picked up my coat from the corpse and threw it aside. After a brief inspection, she immediately stepped on the side wall of the pool and jumped up.
Although the walls of the pool are not filled with water now, it is conceivable that they are also very slippery, and she can jump out of the pool with bare hands without the help of any tools. It seems that this housekeeper is really a sleeper. The tiger hides the dragon. While admiring her, I was also curious about her master. Everyone below can have such strength. What kind of character is she as the master.
After the housekeeper came up, she said nothing or did nothing, just shook her head seriously at her master.
Is this an answer? I can't understand. But the lady seemed to understand, she immediately shouted at the neighborhood again: "Come here!"
"Huh... Huh..."
"Huh... Huh..." Almost at the same time as the voice fell, the dozen or so maids walked over from the villa. But when I first came here, I didn't see anyone there. Are they living in the garage in the backyard
The lady pointed at the body in the pool with a cold face, and asked the dozen or so maids: "Does any of you know this person?"
A dozen people glanced into the pool, and then they all shook their heads to indicate that they didn't know each other. After getting their answers, the lady again issued an order to them and said: "Keep the pool, no one is allowed to approach, let alone anyone touch the corpse." After speaking, she turned her face to the woman again. The housekeeper ordered: "Housekeeper, the death of a human being is a serious matter, so call the police immediately."
After hearing the madam's order, the housekeeper immediately ran towards the villa, presumably calling the police to go. The dozen or so maids immediately surrounded the pool.
After ordering all these matters, the lady turned her face and turned into the charming and affectionate expression just now, and said to me: "Mr. Lin, I'm really sorry, Yaxing, who would be disturbed by this kind of thing, our meal. Then, let's let the police take care of the next thing, and let's continue." After finishing speaking, the lady walked towards the villa on her own regardless of whether I agreed or not. Looking at her background, I realized that she and the girl who hitchhiked me are really not the same person, because the lady in front of me is a little taller than her, the girl is only about 160cm at most, and this lady At least 170 or more.
I didn't expect things to become so dramatic. Isn't this uncle's corpse really the ghost of them? Who is that? Uncle can’t do it himself, right? With all kinds of doubts, I looked up at the sky again. The sky was still white, without a trace of change. I didn't know whether it was day or night, so I took out my phone and wanted to check the time. But when I took out the phone from my pocket, I found that the screen of the phone turned out to be completely black. It will automatically shut down when there is no electricity. It is impossible. Although the battery of the smart phone is not used, I use the car charger to charge the phone along the way. It is impossible to run out of electricity. But now no matter how I press the power button, there is no response on the screen. Just crashed in a car accident? Even more unlikely, the phone's appearance is not damaged in the slightest, how could it be broken.
Mobile phones are electronic products. I heard that there will be abnormalities in places with strong magnetic fields. Is this place where I am now a strong magnetic field
When I was about to continue thinking deeply, the lady had already stood at the door and urged me: "Mr. Lin, what are you still thinking about standing there? Come in soon."
I found that her voice seemed to have magical powers, which made people feel like she couldn't bear to refuse her. I looked at the phone in my hand, then trot over and said to her, "Madam, my phone seems to be out of power. Can I charge it at your place?"
I thought she would make excuses to decline, but I didn’t expect that she would still look unchanging, and smiled at me: "Of course, come here, take Mr. Lin’s phone to recharge it." In the end of the villa. How many maids are hiding? I thought that those standing outside were all, but with the order of the lady, another one walked out of the next room, and then came to me and waited respectfully. NS.
I'll go, and now I realize that I really underestimated this lady. This scheming is really one set and one set. Actually, I turned into the army. Of course, I wouldn't be so stupid to hand over the phone to her. Once it was handed over to her, it would definitely be a strong man who would never return. But if you don't give it to her, you will be a little embarrassed. So I pretended to be calm and said: "Let's talk about things first, there is still some power on the phone for the time being, and I will trouble you when I don't have it."
After seeing my refusal, the lady didn't force it. After smiling at me, she looked at the dining table and said with a slight concern: "The steak seems to be a bit cold, should I ask the kitchen to make another one for Mr. Lin?"
Although I was a bit hungry, I really didn't dare to eat their food, so I declined their enthusiasm with a smile: "Madam, let's just talk about business."
Seeing that I was more anxious than the client, the wife seemed very satisfied: "Mr. Lin's attitude is still surprising." After that, the wife said to me again: "Mr. Lin doesn't have to be so formal, my husband's surname Shen, you can call me Miss Shen."
The tradition of marrying husbands with their husband’s surname can be said to be a kind of culture with a long history, which is rarely seen nowadays. However, it is difficult to say that we ordinary people can experience such things as marrying a wealthy family. And what is even more strange is that generally, a married woman should be called a lady if she wants to be called, and only a girl who has not been out of the cabinet will become a lady. But since she introduced herself like this, I was naturally more respectful: "Miss Shen is polite." After finishing speaking, I felt that it was no way to spend it with her, so I felt proactive, so I confronted Miss Shen. Said: "Miss Shen, the task this time is based on your letter. It is just to investigate who the owner of this villa is, but isn't the owner of this villa your own? What else do I need to do?"
Ms. Shen's face suddenly darkened, she looked a little sad, and she said in a daze, "I am married, not the owner of this house, and the real owner of the house is not my husband, but my husband's father. , Which is my father-in-law."
As soon as I heard it, I didn’t understand it even more: “Isn’t that very clear? The owner of the villa is your father-in-law, there is no need to investigate anything.”
Things were not as simple as I thought. Miss Shen immediately shook her head and said helplessly, "If it's really just that simple, why should I spend such a high remuneration to invite you over."
I didn't interrupt, waiting for Miss Shen to continue.
"Actually, I don’t care who the owner of this villa is. I didn’t care before I got married. I don’t care now, and I will never care about it in the future. But now I have to care because my husband is critically ill and needs an astronomical amount of money. It can be saved." Ms. Shen said very sadly and sadly. At the end of it, her eyes seemed to be a little moist.
I don’t know if what she said is true or false, but I still found it a bit strange, so I asked Miss Shen: "Ms. Shen meant to sell this villa for your husband’s medical expenses? If that’s the case. , Then you can just discuss it with your father-in-law. It's impossible for the old man to watch his son in critical condition and not save him."
It seems that my guess is correct, but what I didn’t guess is that things are far beyond my imagination. Miss Shen’s next words made me stare in surprise and couldn’t believe it: "I’ll marry me. In the past two decades, I have never seen my father-in-law and mother-in-law, and I have never even seen their photos.” (End of this chapter)
