Bring home the Infinite World Boss
Chapter 27 Blood Club Fire
"Absolutely impossible!" said the male star: "My family is a newlywed couple. They are friendly and have a good relationship. And the host was at home last night, so I didn't hear him go out. Could it be possible Having an affair with his wife in front of the host? You must have misremembered the location."
But Guan Jingyi said: "When I was about to fall asleep at night, I did hear his dog barking. I don't know if someone came in or out."
"When it's time to go to bed? How late did you go to bed?"
"No, it's not until eleven o'clock."
"But the tryst happened at least after one o'clock in the morning."
If what he recorded is true, it is also possible that Xiao Song's father entered the house after the host left.
Putting this matter aside for the time being, Li Lingzhou finally concluded: "In short, everyone should pay attention to the movements and...personal relationships of the owners of their respective houses. I think, either there is a main thread hidden here, or there is a murderous intention hidden."
"Murder? What do you mean?" Zhuo Yizhi was particularly sensitive to this word.
Li Lingzhou explained: "You can understand it as the rules of death."
Zhuo Yi signed a jolt, he felt that he was more sensitive to these two words, so sensitive that he wanted to beat someone when he heard it.
"By the way, is there any special behavior of the owner of the house, for example, my little girl is particularly afraid of apples." Yin Shen added after studying the map.
Everyone present fell into memory, racking their brains to wonder if anything strange happened to them last night.
After a while, Sheng Yan reminded: "Should we finally talk about the remaining man? Who is he, after all, how did he die?"
A weak voice said: "I know he..."
Everyone looked at the man in unison. He hadn't spoken just now, and everyone almost ignored him.
"I know, we live in his house and he is our landlord."
Such an important clue was almost missed.
"Tell me in detail."
He and his companion looked at each other and said: "The main thing is that there is nothing to say. He has a cold personality. We didn't greet us when we came. He went into the room by himself and locked the door. There was always the sound of papers turning inside. We I also guessed that this person might be a writer.
We also just found out that he died, there was a little blood in the courtyard of our house, he may have died there.But the villagers found him and carried him away before we both got up. "
"It seems that each of us has something that needs to be investigated," Yin Shen said, "Well, at nine o'clock every morning, the living people are still gathering here to exchange information."
But the time during the day was not left for them to investigate the information. There were tragedies in the village one after another, and accidents happened to members of the Shehuo team. If you leave, you will have no money to take."
After all, in the eyes of the villagers, it is very unlucky for the Shehuo Festival to be interrupted.There have even been rumors that the root cause of the incident lies in the interruption of the Shehuo Festival.So they asked the team to continue the performance, and must carry out the activity to the end.
But the cloth pupae was burned, and it took a lot of time to make this thing. Even if you make a crude version temporarily, it will take at least three days. In addition, many makeups were damaged in the noise that day, and you need to buy them again.
So the person in charge of the team gathered all the available manpower to clean up the mess. Those with excellent craftsmanship made cloth pupae, and the clumsy ones helped everyone.
The rest of the team were worried that it would be their turn to die next, so they all worked hard, with exceptionally quick hands and feet.
The density of people in the yard was too high, Yin Shen and the others didn't want to show their flaws.So he seldom spoke, and just worked hard for a day.It wasn't until the evening that the squad leader let everyone go home for dinner.
The setting sun burned half of the sky blood red, and the last ray of sunlight hit the villagers' houses, showing a particularly conspicuous orange color. The whole village seemed to be laid out in a palette, which was a miracle of nature.
Yin Shen squinted his eyes for a while, and was slapped on the forehead by Zhuo Yizhi.
"Don't look at it, it's easy to be blind."
Yin gritted his teeth deeply: "Shut up if you can't speak."
Zhuo Yizhi rubbed his arms, he saw the wood for a day, grinned and said: "I have never done this job since I was a child, this world is really terrible, I thought I came to Metamorphosis."
"The horror version of Metamorphosis," Sheng Yan added.
But Li Lingzhou next to him showed a rare look of confusion.
Yin smiled deeply and said, "Boss, you haven't watched Metamorphosis, right? It's a variety show, it's quite interesting. By the way, I haven't asked you yet, what is your occupation in real life?"
Li Lingzhou said lightly: "I have a company, and I have some common business projects. I have a lot of employees, but they are not up to date. I can't keep up with KPIs, and I don't want to make progress."
Zhuo Yizhi sighed in a strange way: "Oh, CEO!"
Yin Shen wasn't surprised. He really couldn't imagine any career that was suitable for Li Lingzhou. A person like him should indeed be in a high position.
However, Yin Shen also understood that it is quite normal for a ruling class like this who is so full of KPIs to have never heard of The Metamorphosis, the Source of Commoner Happiness.
"What about you?"
"what?"
Yin Shen was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to see Li Lingzhou looking at him, his brows were lowered, and there was seriousness in his eyes.
Yin Shen didn't expect the boss to be interested in his career at all, so he reacted quickly and said, "I'm a painter."
Li Lingzhou understood it, and turned his gaze to the place where the sky and the house are connected, which is the direction Yin Shen had been looking at for a long time just now, and he asked, "Is it beautiful?"
"It's beautiful." Yin Shen nodded sincerely.
Zhuo Yizhi didn't know why his scalp felt numb for a while, and when he looked at Li Lingzhou again, he felt even more unpleasant.
"Beautiful fart! I see blood everywhere, hurry up, I'm going to faint and I'll tell you."
However, Yin Shen ruthlessly pushed Sheng Yan in front of him: "Then don't tell me, please tell the doctor."
"Hey, wait a minute, isn't that Xiaosong?" Sheng Yan ignored the two childish ghosts, frowning and looking not far away.
Sure enough, it was Xiaosong. She was wearing a floral skirt, against the light, standing at the foot of the wall covered by the setting sun, talking to an old lady.
"That's not..." Sheng Yan said again.
"It was the grandma who presided over the overall situation yesterday..." Yin Shen finished the sentence for him: "There is another person beside her, why does she look a bit like Aunt Ying?"
Aunt Ying was getting old, and she helped in the yard in the morning, but she was disgusted by others for her rough hands and feet. The foreman told her to go to the side for a rest. At that time, Yin Shen and the others thought that Aunt Ying had gone back first, but who knew that she was sitting here bask in the sun.
The old and the young are surprisingly harmonious, and there is a parrot hanging on the iron bar next to it, which is quite like the rural ink painting.
The old man suddenly turned his head towards them. Although his eyes were closed tightly, he seemed to have seen them. Perhaps she had a unique way of seeing things.Then she waved to them.
"I think she is an important NPC!" Zhuo Yizhi said excitedly, rubbing his hands together.
Xiaosong stood obediently on the side, and smiled sweetly at Yin Shen, while the old man's "line of sight" followed Yin Shen... Li Lingzhou next to him.
After watching for a long time, the old man's brows were twisted into several arcs, as if he was in some kind of confusion.But as everyone approached, this slight look disappeared immediately.
This made Yin Shen think that he had hallucinations just now.
Aunt Ying stood up rubbing her knees and said, "Is it over? Did you see Jiayi come out?"
"Still in the yard," Sheng Yan said, "It should be soon."
"Okay, then I'll pick her up."
Aunt Ying was already familiar with the old lady. Before she left, she teased the parrot on the tree, which made the green bird flutter its wings.
The parrot has gray eyeballs and is also blind.
For Aunt Ying, she was like visiting a relative's village in the countryside. She was appropriate and indifferent, and no death could move her.
"It's going to be hard for you these days." The old man said leisurely, his voice was a little hoarse, very much like the voice of someone who hasn't spoken for a long time.
"You are too polite! We should, we should, and now we hope to finish the Shehuo Festival as soon as possible, so that everyone can feel at ease."
Zhuo Yi is quite polite at critical moments, and Yin Shen secretly develops the mentality of an old father.
He didn't realize that this mentality was exactly the same as that of Zhuo Yizhi who rushed into the room in the morning.
After hearing this, the old man smiled. She didn’t know how many years she had lived, and the wrinkles on her face were all crowded together and stacked on top of each other. One wondered if she had to turn over her skin and flesh every day when she washed her face. It became more and more difficult to see the eyes with a gap left, and the whole person was more like an old tree that had dried up.
"Mother-in-law, I'm a little curious." Only Li Lingzhou was not frightened by her appearance, and asked with a clear purpose: "The layout of this village is strange?"
The old man "stared" at Li Lingzhou again for a long time. After a long time, cold sweat broke out on Yin Shen's back. She wondered if Li Lingzhou's question was wrong. She finally said, "Yes, this is where our village and other difference in place."
"On purpose?"
"To be precise, it's just the origin that has been handed down for a long time. Where there are people, if it exists for a long time, there will always be something handed down from generation to generation. Hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and young people can't tell what the original intention was. .
In our village, everyone opens their windows to each other, like countless mirrors standing opposite each other, learning from each other, I think it is very good. "
"Are there no young people who object?"
"I've said it before, who dares to object to the things passed down by the ancestors? Whoever wants to change the house type or direction is disrespectful to the ancestors!"
I didn't expect this village to be quite pedantic.However, it can also be seen from the fire of the Blood Society that such things are still being respected as luck and auspiciousness. It seems that this era should not be overestimated, it has its limitations after all.
"Then, isn't the non-specific relationship between husband and wife also against the tradition?" Li Lingzhou's question made people sweat more and more.
The old man's expression suddenly became sharp, and she asked in a deep voice, "What are you talking about? What do you know?"
Yin Shen quickly said: "No, no, he saw it in the last village, just talking nonsense."
The old lady's expression finally softened, but judging from her reaction, it's no wonder Xiaosong's father wants to have an affair in the middle of the night.As the authority of the village, she has the right to speak in the village.
Even scarier other rights.
"You guys go home, the smoke has been growing for a long time, go back and have dinner," the mother-in-law touched Xiaosong's braid, and said lovingly like an ordinary grandmother: "And you, what you begged me I can't promise you, take your guests home, when the time comes, what you're looking for will naturally appear in front of you."
The little girl pursed her mouth in grievance, and sighed like an adult, and she didn't know who she learned from.
Then he solemnly waved goodbye to the old woman, came to lead Yin Shen again, and said, "Let's go, I'll take you home."
After a while, the old lady added: "Reminder, at seven o'clock tonight, after sunset, there will be a send-off ceremony for the deceased. If you have nothing to do, come to the bar to toast."
As she spoke, she lifted the bench and went into the house.
"Hey, this old lady lives in such a big house by herself." Zhuo Yizhi looked at the four-storey building and said, it seems to be the tallest house in the whole village, and the whole village may be overlooked from above.
The old lady's room was in the southeast corner of the village, next to the widest road leading to the outside world, and at the end of the road was a foggy pine forest.
On the way back, the little girl led the way bouncing up and down, touching and picking from the left, but she refused to walk properly.
Yin Shen took out the hand-drawn map to look at it again, and all kinds of intricate relationships and information turned upside down in his mind, and one head and two big ones couldn't help it.
"Yin Shen, don't forget," Sheng Yan quietly approached him, and whispered, "The ghost is among us, I think he must be lying."
But Guan Jingyi said: "When I was about to fall asleep at night, I did hear his dog barking. I don't know if someone came in or out."
"When it's time to go to bed? How late did you go to bed?"
"No, it's not until eleven o'clock."
