Xiao Sheng didn't care, he finally tightened the woman's hand and stood up again.The servant has already brought over the tea: "Madam, please use some tea, the weather in the south is hot, this tea is very good for quenching thirst and hunger."

The woman was still nervous and didn't even take the tea, but secretly looked at Martin, as if asking for his approval.

Martin smiled stiffly: "Isn't mother thirsty? Let's have some tea first, and we'll go visit after drinking."

Only then did the woman take the teacup carefully, and took a big gulp as soon as she touched her mouth, as if she hadn't drunk water for a long time.

Martin's forehead twitched, and he turned his face away and rubbed his brow.

The servant stared at the woman for a while, and the doubtful light in his eyes gradually gathered, and then flashed again.

The climate is warm now, but it is cool under the trees, and there is still a cool breeze blowing.

Martin and the others didn't find anything unusual along the way. On the lawn under the platform, there were even old people playing games with their black pet dog.

Nothing is wrong.

Buck hadn't visited Martin's residence for a few days, which was one of the reasons why Martin decided to come here.

But now, no one is there.

The servant took Martin and the others to the accommodation area of ​​the nursing home, a row of small houses with bright and clean windows, and the corridors were next to the windows. The man took them to a model room, where the living room, bedroom, and bathroom were all complete and exquisitely decorated.

"This is the room where the customers live. If you are interested, there is also a single villa, but the price is very expensive." The white-robed servant explained.

"Look, do you like this place?" Martin asked his "mother" very kindly and respectfully.

The woman looked around, thinking that they really wanted to arrange for her to stay, she quickly shook her head.She came to find relatives, and now she just wanted some money to support her, and she didn't want to get involved with such complicated things that didn't belong to her world.

"It seems that Mother doesn't like this place very much. Then let's change to another place to see how the environment of the small villa is." Martin smiled nicely.Xiao Sheng stood behind him, guessing what he was thinking, and couldn't help but smile.Of course it is very light.

Just like that, a group of four came out of the row of small apartments, walked through a large garden, and walked towards the villa area.

The villa area is almost close to the lake, and this is a private territory, outsiders can't get close, so it looks very quiet.

"Is there no one living here?" asked Martin.

The servant paused for a moment, then said: "There are some masters and employers who like to be quiet here, and they don't go out often on weekdays, so they seem relatively quiet."

Martin nodded and continued walking forward, then suddenly turned his head and said, "Buck said he also lives in this district, do you know where his residence is?"

"This... I don't know." The servant bowed his head.

"I don't know this, I don't know that, what did your lord send you here for?" Martin chuckled lightly.

The servant lowered his head in embarrassment and said nothing.

At that moment, there was a quarrel in the small villa not far away.

"What's going on?" The voice inside was getting louder and louder, and it had reached the point where people could not ignore it.

The white-robed servant in front of him seemed a little flustered. He forced a smile and said, "It may be that the nurses have offended the employer. Don't worry about it, sir. Let's move on."

Martin ignored him and walked over there instead.

Xiao Sheng glanced at the servant and followed Martin.

Suddenly an old man rushed out of the courtyard of the small villa. He stood at the door, leaning on a cane, and slammed on the ground: "Didn't I tell you to get out? I don't want to drink that thing, what is it, is it for people to drink? You, And you," the old man pointed to the two nurses who surrounded him, "try drinking this medicine yourself!! I'm yuck~!"

The two nurses looked at each other, a little at a loss.

Martin and the others stepped forward, and were surprised to find that the old man was actually Buck who the janitor said had returned home.

Buck was obviously also surprised to see them: "Boy Odin? And Xiao Sheng?"

"It's better for an adult to not do one thing and keep doing two things."

In the dimly lit study room, the two sat and stood, Aldrich's face covered in the hood looked extremely gloomy.

"But..." Dean Lukala hesitated.

"If those people get to the bottom of it and know about your cooperation with Master Cecil, knowing that you experimented with people from the nursing home without authorization, and the benefits you got from this deal in the first place, think about it, where you are now Can you keep it?" The man unhurriedly laid out his interests in front of Dean Lukala.

Lukala's face gradually wrinkled, he stood up, walked back and forth a few steps, and finally his expression became grim: "You are right, we shouldn't leave this hidden danger, no matter what their identities are. They were unlucky, but they discovered the clues here."

Discovering Cecil was a small matter, and if he was also involved in the things he did secretly, it would not only be a matter of losing his position, but according to the decree of the province of Santo Deming, losing his head is also possible.

Lukala has been struggling until now, and he has done a lot of selfish things, especially when it comes to his wealth and life, he is even more cautious and dare not take any risks.

The hooded man smiled and said, "Your Excellency is wise. It's a decisive plan to make a big deal out of small things."

When Buck saw Martin and the others, he was very excited and happy. Even the servant who was persuading him to drink the medicine changed his expression, he stopped struggling and talked a lot.

The medicine is green soup with some scum at the bottom, shake it with a spoon a few times to get it even.

Martin and Xiao Sheng naturally saw it, they looked at each other, each saw the look in each other's eyes, and then quietly returned to normal.

"The meal arrangement here is really unsatisfactory. Twice a week, we must eat this kind of soup for health."

Buck sighed with emotion, and saw the two paramedics still standing aside, a little annoyed: "What are you doing here, don't you see that I have guests coming?"

The two looked at each other, and then at the half-drunk soup on the table, as if they were a little conflicted.The white-robed servant standing behind Martin secretly gave the two of them a wink, and the two finally lowered their heads and retreated.

"You go down too, I'll chat with Mr. Barker for a while." Martin looked at the white-robed man and said.

The servant who stayed behind was stunned: "Does your lord still want to see the small villa?"

"Isn't Buck right here?" Martin smiled and looked at the "mother" who had touched the balcony to observe the flowers very curiously, "We will take a good look here, you don't have to wait, you can report to the dean gone."

The servant seemed to hesitate for a moment, but finally nodded and backed out.

Unrelated people walked away, Buck was a little excited, and whispered in Martin's ear, "Is that your mother?"

Martin looked at the lady looking at the flowers on the balcony. It was not good to expose it now, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and nodded: "Yes."

"Why didn't I see you at your house before?"

Martin is stuck.

Xiao Sheng smiled and continued: "Mr. Buck doesn't know, the old lady went to the provincial capital to treat rheumatism a few days ago, and she just came back recently."

"So that's the case. What about Odin's father?" Buck then asked with bright eyes.

This slight expression was a bit strange, but Martin still replied: "My father went there a few years ago."

"Oh, so that's the case." Buck showed a clear and slightly regretful expression on his face, and looked carefully for some reason, there was some joy in his eyes, "I'm going to say hello to Madam."

After speaking, Buck got up, leaning on his crutches forcefully, not at all like the old man who needed to sit in a wheelchair before.

Martin Xiaosheng glanced at each other in surprise, not knowing what kind of development this was.Buck had already walked up to the lady and began talking with a personable smile.

Xiao Sheng & Martin: ...

All right.I probably understand what's going on.

That lady still looks a bit elegant when she dresses up.

Not bothering about the old man's love story anymore, Martin looked at the half-drinked bowl of soup, and gave Xiao Sheng a hint with his eyes.

Xiao Sheng nodded, approached Martin, and under the cover of pouring tea, picked up a little of the residue in the soup, put it upside down in the handkerchief, and put it neatly into his pocket.

Xiao Sheng blinked lightly, and Martin smiled at him.

There is a tacit understanding between the two.

Buck chatted with the lady outside for a while, and then came in.

Buck said: "I'm not in good health when I'm old. You see, I've been a little sleepy for a while." He rubbed his eyebrows as he said, and looked at the lady with a warm and gentle look, " It just so happens that you are here, do you want to see the booklets I have collected over the years?"

The lady chatted very comfortably at first, but now she became a little scruples in front of Martin. She glanced at him and said nothing.

Martin was thinking about what was in Xiao Sheng's arms, so he said with a smile: "Since you are already sleepy, we can't bother you any more. Let's come to visit another day. You are also welcome to visit our house again."

As expected, Buck's eyelids were tired, and he covered his hands and yawned, his tiredness was hard to hide: "Okay then, I'll take you out."

When they reached the door, the two servants were already waiting at the door.

This had a faint feeling of surveillance. Martin thought for a while, and the reminder circled around in his heart a few times, but he still didn't say it.

It's not too late to mention this matter when Buck comes to their house next time.

The three recognized the way and walked towards the entrance of the nursing home. It was almost dusk at this moment, and a few crows by the tree quacked a few times, flew up, and flew away into the distance.

The elderly and pet dogs playing in the square are no longer there, and the atmosphere of the entire nursing home seems a bit too quiet and secretive.

In the fountain in the center of the building enclosure, a dead fish floated up with rolling eyes. When passing by, Martin took a casual look and saw the miserable state of the fish, and felt a little ominous in his heart.

Dean Lukala seemed to have been waiting in the foyer where they would pass when they went out.Seeing a few people approaching, under the light of the setting sun at dusk, a somewhat pale and strange smile appeared on his face:

"Master Earl, you are finally here."
