Survival rules for restaurants: cooking and eating melons at the same time

After an unknown amount of time, the loud sound of rain and the constant bumpy ruts of the car covered up the boredom and tension in everyone's hearts.

The car stopped, but the rain was getting heavier. Gu Qingyun looked up at the sky and muttered in an inaudible voice, "I wonder if the rain will stop tonight?"

It has been more than a month since the first search of Huguang Residence. During this period, the people from Dali Temple have no idea how many times they have come back and forth here.

"Let's go, and move quietly. Zhao Huaiqing and Xinhai go through the main gate, and Wuhuan and I will go to the woods." As soon as Gu Qingyun finished speaking, several people jumped onto the roof and quickly disappeared into the night.

Gu Qingyun and Wu Huan entered the woods very quietly. Even though they were very careful, Gu Qingyun always felt as if there was someone behind him, perhaps because of psychological effects or because of the heavy rain. He looked back again and again but did not see anyone.

I walked deeper into the woods and tiptoed to the inconspicuous wooden house.

Wu Huan looked around and pointed at the door and the wooden board.

Gu Qingyun understood and gently touched the wooden board with his palm. In addition to the dampness and coldness brought by the rainy night, there was still a trace of heat. This was obviously unscientific, unless there was someone here just now, or that person was lighting a small fire in it.

Gu Qingyun reached out and touched his rain-soaked face, glanced at Wu Huan, and kicked the door open.

The bloody scene I had imagined was not seen. The whole house was frighteningly clean. Even the utensils were much less. There was a crackling flame in the stove, and a pot of boiling water on it.

It looks like the scene of plucking a chicken.

The two of them tacitly kept silent and slowly moved down the wall, trying to reduce their presence as much as possible.

On the other side, Zhao Huaiqing and Xin Hai walked directly into the yard along the corridor. Since there were no uncomfortable scenes here, the two of them walked in along the corridor.

When they opened the door, they felt a damp breath coming up instantly. They took a deep breath, and there was a faint smell of mold. It seemed that there was no one here.

It rained for too long this month, so it's normal to have some musty smell. But I don't know if it's because the wood of the furniture in the house is expensive, or if someone has lit wood incense in the room. Apart from the musty smell, there is actually some faint wood fragrance.

The moment Zhao Huaiqing noticed it, he signaled Xinhai to lower the sound of his breathing. Neither of them dared to move too much. After all, the room had wooden floors, and the noise would be very loud if they were not careful.

They checked every room one by one, but they didn't see the Young Master Luochuan and the bloody scene that they had imagined.

But when I opened the last room, I saw a girl sitting with her back to me, her hair loose, and she didn't look back.

Zhao Huaiqing was afraid of these things to begin with. He almost fainted for a moment. He kept taking deep breaths, but his reason prevented him from shouting out.

The girl seemed to finally hear the noise and slowly turned her head.

Xinhai held Zhao Huaiqing tightly to prevent him from falling.

Unexpectedly, the girl turned around and saw that it was an acquaintance, "Hey, hey, brother, you guys came to see me."

It turned out to be the little girl who was surrounded by black cats before. Shouldn't she be in the sanatorium? Why did she appear here?

Xin Hai lowered his voice and asked, "Young lady, why are you here? Who brought you here?"

The little girl seemed to have heard a joke and asked with her head tilted, "Why am I not here, brother? I am here every day."

Zhao Huaiqing came back to his senses after being frightened. His brain kept working and he finally regained consciousness. "You are here every day?"

"Yes, I'm here every day. This is my room. My brother said that I live here alone now." The little girl tilted her head and smiled again.

Xin Hai asked again, "Brother?"

The little girl nodded, and then started again, "Hey, hey, brother."

It seems that the lucidity just now was all pretended, and now the silly and foolish look is the normal state.

"Why do you come here every day, little sister?" Zhao Huaiqing tried to keep his tone calm, hoping that the little girl would say something else.

But the little girl didn't say anything meaningful in response, she just kept saying, "Hehehe, brother, hehehe."

Zhao Huaiqing had almost recovered, but now he felt weird again.

The two were in a dilemma. Zhao Huaiqing didn't dare to stay here alone, nor did he dare to explore alone. He held Xinhai tightly, and no matter how Xinhai struggled, it was useless.

……

"boom--"

Gu Qingyun and Wu Huan still went down to the basement. For some reason, the basement and the small house above did not feel damp at all. The walls inside were extremely dry. It did not look like a house that had been empty for more than a month. It seemed that someone came back to clean it every day.

Gu Qingyun looked around and saw no other living creatures except Wuhuan.

They didn't see anyone until they climbed the steps leading to the hall.

Wu Huan didn't say a word along the way, and kept remembering these details. He felt something was strange, as if they were different from what he remembered. But he couldn't tell exactly what was different at the moment, and could only keep thinking about it in his mind.

Zhao Huaiqing was still holding Xin Hai tightly, and Gu Qingyun took a look and couldn't help asking, "You two? Getting married?"

Zhao Huaiqing shook his head frantically, raised his finger and pointed at the little girl in the room who was facing away from the door again, "Look, look, I'm scared to death, really."

Gu Qingyun turned around to look. It was indeed creepy. After just one glance, he felt that it was normal for Zhao Huaiqing to be so frightened that he couldn't stand.

"Who is this?" Gu Qingyun felt that it was the black cat girl, but he was not sure, so he could only ask.

"Black cat girl." Zhao Huaiqing replied.

Gu Qingyun walked in and said, "Young lady, why are you here? Shouldn't you be in the sanatorium now?"

The little girl turned around again and looked back, "Brother, hehehe, it's so lively, it's so lively here, just like before, I'm not alone anymore, hehehe."

Gu Qingyun also felt creepy, took a deep breath and asked, "Were you here before?"

The little girl smiled so hard that her teeth were showing. "Yes, this is my home, hehehe, brother, this is my home, hehe."

Gu Qingyun originally thought that this little girl was probably not the type that had been tortured, but had just gone crazy due to the shock. But now after seeing this scene, he realized that this little girl was probably mentally disabled and had been tortured to the point where she had lost her normal consciousness, so the Huguang Mansion wanted her.

Worse than animals.

"Then what are you doing here at night?" Gu Qingyun asked in a coaxing tone.

"Brother, please prepare some meat for me. I will eat a lot and then go back to get treatment. Hehehe, brother, please eat a lot!" The little girl said seriously, as if she really couldn't eat enough in the sanatorium.

Gu Qingyun felt something was wrong. The sanatorium used the silver found in Huguang Residence, so how could it be short of food and drink? The girl said she was not full... Could it be that she was eating raw meat like those escaped servants?
