"Really? Is big brother really dead?" I suddenly became suspicious about big brother's death again. I suspected that this woman was in cahoots with the murderer and was now pestering me in order to delay me and Lu Fei.
"Could this be false? If you don't believe me, come with me into the house and take a look." The sister-in-law's face turned cold. She stretched out her slender hand and waved it behind her, making a gesture of inviting someone into a trap.
I was moved. Sure enough, this woman is trying to lead us into a trap. There might be some trap in the house. Fuck him, do you think I am a fool
"Sister-in-law, do you know why there is a rule that the coffin should be put into the body after three days of mourning?" When I was talking to her, my eyes were fixed on the direction where Lu Fei disappeared. She was making a fuss with me, so the guy talked to her about all sorts of things and quickly asked her to bring Lu Fei back and leave.
"Why?"
"Because sometimes people appear to be dead, and hospitals also make misdiagnoses. There are so many examples of people being resurrected after death, so there is such a rule," I explained to her.
This woman was not a pushover. She saw through my thoughts and said with a smirk, "What on earth do you want to say to me?"
I smiled: "I was going to say..." What the hell, it was all nonsense. But I had to continue, so I said: "Whether big brother is really dead or not, there is no doctor to confirm it. We can only rely on what we see. That is just assumption. Big brother may not be really dead. But I know a magic. As long as a couple lives together for more than ten years, they will form conjoined palms. Through the wife's hand, you can tell whether the husband is still alive."
My sister-in-law was surprised for a moment, but then her expression calmed down again. A sneer flashed in the corner of her eyes and she said to me: "Well, then take a look at me to see if my husband is really dead." As she spoke, she stretched out her snow-white right hand.
Judging from her appearance, the elder brother has most likely gone to the underworld. I took her hand and it was cold to the touch, with no trace of life at all! I was really depressed. It didn't look like a living corpse, but it didn't look like a dead person. Damn, what kind of person is it
Speaking of the conjoined palms of a couple, I am not making this up. In the Mai family, there is indeed this magical palm reading technique. It's just that I haven't learned it. I guess my teacher Zhao Chengshi knows about it. I just talked about it casually with her, but I didn't expect that she would really let me read her palms.
I held her little hand and looked at it carefully under the flashlight, and suddenly found something quite strange: this woman had no hand lines!
It was like a piece of snow-white paper, very smooth, but without any lines or grooves. A very scary thought gradually arose in my mind. This woman was indeed not a living person, but she was not a ghost, and certainly not a corpse! What she was, I couldn't tell at the moment, I could only find out by forcing her to reveal her true form.
But Lu Fei is not here now. If I execute the sentence on my own, I might as well cause this kid to misunderstand me. So I should wait.
"Brother is really dead." I put her hand down and pretended to be very sad.
"Can you really tell?" the sister-in-law asked with a suspicious look on her face.
I nodded with a little blush, fortunately the light was shining on her and she couldn't see my expression.
"Brother, brother..."
At this moment, Lu Fei's heart-wrenching scream suddenly came from the front. I hurriedly shone the flashlight over there and saw him rushing out from the darkness like a fly and running into the house.
How did this guy know that my elder brother was dead? Who told him? I couldn't help but feel puzzled.
"My brother-in-law is back, aren't you coming with him?" My sister-in-law said indifferently with a cold face, then shook her head at me, turned around and walked back.
