Quick Wear: Saving the Sickly and Paranoid Villain

Chapter 364 The Unknown World: The Cheating Husband 17

Lu Huaizhou turned around and walked forward a few steps, then stopped not far from Xu Meir: "It's just a power outage, it will be back soon."

"Yeah." Xu Meir tilted her head slightly. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that his steps were a little hurried. Was he afraid of the dark?

"Want to go out and take a look?" Lu Huaizhou was completely hidden in the shadows, and his expression could not be seen clearly.

"Okay." Xu Meir agreed. The power outage came so suddenly that it was hard not to notice.

Lu Huaizhou picked up his cell phone and turned on the flashlight to illuminate the road ahead. Xu Meir saw his expression clearly. There was no emotion in his eyes and his actions were calm. He didn't look like he was afraid of the dark at all. So why did he do that just now?

Xu Meir followed Lu Huaizhou out and heard a noisy sound as soon as she stepped out of the door.

"What happened? Did the circuit breaker trip?"

"Butler, can you go and see what's going on?"

"I'm so annoyed every day!"

"I don't want to stay here anymore, it's so terrible! I don't want to do this job even if I get paid more!"

The two went to the living room, where two maids were standing by the table holding their cell phones with frightened expressions. Lawyer Wang was sitting on the sofa, holding his cell phone without saying a word. The bright light from the phone made the faces of the three people look a little pale.

The two sat on the sofa, and Lu Huaian asked, "What's going on?"

The taller maid, Xiao Wei, said in a trembling voice: "We don't know why, the power suddenly went out, and the housekeeper went to the old lady's room. It's terrible."

The power outage is nothing. What is scary is that the power outage occurred shortly after the death, which inexplicably aggravated the terror.

"Butler! Butler! Where are the people?" Lu Huaiwei walked down from the second floor with Liu Yue, cursing.

After sitting on the sofa, he was still complaining. Liu Yue gently pulled his sleeve. He brushed Liu Yue away but didn't complain anymore.

At this time, the housekeeper finally came back with the old lady. The old lady's hair was disheveled and she was leaning on a cane, looking very haggard. After the old lady sat down, the housekeeper said to the two maids, "What's going on? Why don't you bring the candles?"

The two maids finally reacted and went in one direction.

Logically speaking, the Lu family is so rich, and they should have a power supply system or something, but, they actually lit candles? Xu Meier scanned everyone's expressions calmly, and no one reacted to this. It seems that this may be the setting of the game.

The maids lit the candles and others turned off the flashlights on their mobile phones to save electricity at this time.

Lawyer Wang, who had been keeping his head down, raised his head with a pale face: "I just tried again, but there is still no signal and no network, and we can't contact the outside world. If the electricity is not restored, how many days will the remaining food last for us? What should we do after we finish eating it?"

After that, everyone's faces looked unhappy. Yes, this was no small matter.

"Butler, have you checked why the power outage occurred?" Lu Huaizhou was still calm.

"No," the housekeeper calmed down, "I'll go check it out now, don't worry too much, maybe it's just a normal power outage."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and waited in silence for the butler's result.

Frequent accidents always make people feel irritated. Lu Huaiwei happened to be sitting opposite Gao Hong and the other two. He glanced at them and said, "Officers, have you found anything these days?"

Everyone looked in the direction of Gao Hong and the other two. Tang Ran felt an invisible pressure and she quietly clenched the corner of her clothes.

Facing Lu Huaiwei's provocative gaze, Gao Hong responded calmly: "We have found some things, and we will catch the murderer within three days."

Lu Huaiwei was impatient: "I think it's three days and three days!"

This Lu Huaiwei was stirring up trouble again, Zhang Zhize could no longer bear it: "So what do you want?"

"What do you mean I want to do what I want? You are the ones who are here to solve the case, not me. My father has been dead for several days and you still haven't found anything. How can I trust you?"

"You!" Zhang Zhize stood up suddenly, furious. Lu Huaiwei looked at him without fear at all.

In fact, from Zhang Zhize's behavior of lifting his clothes during the day, Xu Meir knew that these people probably didn't find anything important, so he was desperate and took all kinds of measures.

Gao Hong dragged Zhang Zhize down, his eyes slightly angry, but his voice was calm: "According to regulations, the information related to the case needs to be kept confidential. You think we haven't found out anything, but you think that President Lu is a man who does big things. He won't even have this little patience, right?"

The old lady said in a hoarse voice: "Huaiwei, it has nothing to do with us anyway, so we will just wait for it for another three days."

"Okay." Lu Huaiwei nodded reluctantly and agreed.

Tang Ran breathed a sigh of relief.

The "thump thump" sound of the butler's footsteps was particularly obvious.

"What's wrong?" the old lady asked with difficulty.

The housekeeper shook his head solemnly, "Not good, it's not a power outage. I went to count the food. With the power outage, the remaining food is enough for us to eat for three days at most."

"Oh my God!" The two maids hugged each other and began to cry. At this time, they no longer cared about etiquette.

Liu Yue trembled as she tugged at the corner of Lu Huaiwei's clothes. Lu Huaiwei looked impatient but did not push her away.

Lu Huaizhou turned his head to glance at Xu Meir, and when Xu Meir looked over, he looked away: "What's wrong?"

Lu Huaizhou shook his head: "It's okay."

Lawyer Wang felt regretful. He should have found an excuse not to come here before.

The old lady's hand holding the cane was shaking;

Gao Hong and Zhang Zhize both saw something bad in each other's eyes. Tang Ran looked at one and then the other, silently reducing her presence. She wanted to go home.
