It was noon when the two returned to the yard, and there was no one in the yard. When they passed the restaurant, they found that all the people were sitting by the chairs at the dining table waiting for something, and there were several dishes on the dining table.
Seeing the two of them coming in, the chubby man said helplessly, "The owner of this villa invites us to have dinner together, and he never gives anyone a chance to refuse."
What?Having dinner together, thinking of the appearance of the owner of the villa, Xie Si seriously doubted whether they could live after eating this meal.
Just thinking like this, the boss limped out of the kitchen with a dish, which was a meat dish, very much like stir-fried large intestine with pepper.
"The money is all here, so let's come to Qifan."
The sequelae of his beating were still there, and he was still a little slurred when he spoke. He smiled stiffly at Xie Si and the two of them. With the bruise on his face, it looked weird no matter how you looked.
He sat down on a chair, "Sit down and eat, it won't taste good when it's cold." As he spoke, he picked up the meat on the plate and ate it with big mouthfuls, with an expression on his face as if he was eating What a peerless delicacy.
"Why don't you eat it?" Chen Bin picked up a chopstick of meat and put it in the bowl of the newcomer beside him, "Eat more."
Xie Si and Gu Fan immediately thought of something, looked at each other, Xie Si winked at Chen Bin: "Did you forget that we are not allowed to eat meat casually during our work as detectives?"
"Is there? The detective I hired before didn't have such a statement?" The owner of the villa expressed doubts.
"Yes, the detective you hired before must be unprofessional."
"If we accidentally eat unprocessed meat and have diarrhea, it will affect our work." Xie Si continued to edit without changing his expression.
The owner of the villa stared at Xie Si for a long time, his eyes revealing viciousness, "Okay, but there is only meat and no vegetables at home. You will be hungry for a while these days."
After he finished speaking, he ignored the other people at the table and started to eat with big mouthfuls. Hearing the sound of his eating, the people around kept swallowing.
Xie Si tried hard to keep his eyes from staring at the food in front of him. They hadn't eaten well since they arrived last night, and now they were almost starving to death.
After eating and drinking, the owner of the villa patted his stomach in satisfaction and went upstairs.
"Why don't you let us eat?" As soon as the owner of the villa left, a girl asked dissatisfiedly first.
"In the woods, Gu Fan and I found that the corpses tied to the trees had no internal organs. Guess what the meat is made of?"
Gu Fan picked up the meat on a plate with his chopsticks and looked at it carefully for a long time, "...Without tools, I can't tell what kind of animal it is from."
Even though they didn't get a definite answer, the faces of the people at the table changed. The people who had caught the meat before covered their mouths and ran out staggeringly. Only the tall and thin man was still sitting in the distance. However, the slightly trembling hands also showed his inner unrest.
The few people who managed to recover did not dare to stay at this time. People would die at night, and the owner of the villa threatened them during the day. Now they don’t even have a meal. This world is really not friendly to them at all.
"Why is it painted so clean here?" Looking at the snow-white walls in the living room, a girl thought of a novel she had read before, about mixing ashes with paint and painting the walls, and she couldn't help shivering.
"You said, will there be ashes in the white paint?"
"You think too much, the white paint is delicate, and the white paint on the wall is very thin and even." The young man in the team scratched at the wall and denied the girl's words.
"I suspect that the owner of this house is engaged in decoration, otherwise why there is white paint everywhere." Xie Si, who felt that everything in this house was weird, complained to Gu Fan.
"Probably not. Generally speaking, whatever industry a person is in, he will get bored with his job, so he won't do the same thing again when he returns home, but it's really weird here."
After searching the room for a long time, they couldn't find any useful clues. The only thing they found was a strange vertical wall clock in the living room.
Xie Si had seen such a wall clock before when he was filming period dramas. Usually, this kind of wall clock would make a crisp sound to remind him when it was time, but this wall clock has not sounded since they came here. The pendulum cabinet under it is closed deadly Damn, the built-in lock cylinder made it impossible for them to pick it.
Helpless, they had no choice but to look for other clues. After a busy afternoon, the sky gradually darkened, and there was little sunlight left under the interception of trees.
"I can't really find anything in the living room. Let's go to the second floor to have a look."
There was a long corridor on the second floor, with rooms on both sides, and a photo hung between the doors. The first thing Xie Si saw was the white paint on the face of the photo.
"This is really a painting madman. I'm afraid the owner of this villa is crazy!" Seeing the appearance of these paintings, Xie Si really almost fainted. Fortunately, he lived near the stairs, so he didn't have to see these every day.
Walking forward, some photos are single-person photos, and some are family photos, but without exception, the parts of the faces of the people are painted with white paint.
Walk to the end of the corridor, open the window, and see the part behind the villa. The most conspicuous thing is a pear tree not far away, and there is a grave under the tree.
"This should be the tomb of the mistress!" Xie Si turned to Gu Fan and said.
His peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of something, and when he looked back, a woman was holding a child looking at the photos on the wall, Gu Fan realized what was wrong with him, and turned around to look.
This is the woman smiling, lowering her head and saying softly to the child in her arms: "Look, this is Dad, and Dad will be home soon."
"Papa." The child in his arms heard his father's words, and reached out to touch the paintings on the wall.
This scene looks very warm, as the last ray of sunlight disappears, the figures of the mother and son also completely disappear.
"What's the situation?" The two looked at each other, neither of them knew what was going on in front of them.
"Why did those two people disappear just now? Could it be something unclean?" Xie Si's back felt a little cold, rubbing his arms, he felt that the whole person was not well.
"They couldn't see us just now." Gu Fan next to him was still very calm, without a trace of fear on his face.
"what is happening?"
When the few remaining people went upstairs and were about to go back to the room, they saw the two of them standing in a picture discussing something.
"We've been tired all day and haven't found any clues. I don't know what you found?" The slightly fat man asked with a smile like a good old man.
Sheth gave him a strange look, "Why do we tell you what we find?"
The thin and tall man narrowed his eyes slightly, and said threateningly: "In this environment, we'd better not fight among ourselves, and we can go out safely if we unite. If you don't say anything, we won't tell you anything when we find clues." explain."
"Oh." Xie Si was a little nonchalant. During the day, Gu Fan told himself all the things they did last night, and his feeling was really accurate. The two of them are not good people.
"Looks like it's time to go to bed, let's go back to the room first." Gu Fan gave them a cold look, and pulled Xie Si to walk past them.
"It's getting late, let's rest first, and be more vigilant at night." After instructing Xie Si, he pushed him into the room, and returned to his own room, leaving Chen Bin and the slightly fat man standing there in embarrassment.
Xie Si, who returned to the room, was surprised to find that the room that was smashed into a mess last night turned back to its original appearance today. It seemed that the owner of the villa had cleaned it.
The people in the corridor also looked at each other and returned to their rooms. It could be seen that they were more vigilant than last night.
"I'm a painter, and I'm good at painting. I want to paint the new house more beautifully..."
In the early morning, the familiar child's voice rang out just like yesterday, but today it was a gentle female voice: "Awei, it's time to get up, the alarm clock is ringing."
Soon, the sound of the music also stopped, followed by a gentle man's voice, "I'll get up right away, thank you for getting up so early every morning to make breakfast for me."
"It's not hard. Didn't you tell me that we will move to the city in a few years, so you don't need to get up so early to go to work? You are really tired like this."
Soon, the burst of talking disappeared, and the people who were awakened could no longer lie down, and opened the door one after another and walked out.
Xie Si and Gu Fan looked at each other, and suddenly remembered the problem that they hadn't figured out last night.
"There are really people hiding here, and there are more than one..." A person tremblingly said, with an unstoppable fear on his face.
"Didn't we also hear the music yesterday morning? The owner of the villa was still scolding someone, but yesterday morning, the owner of the villa was tied up in his room."
The young man suddenly remembered what happened yesterday morning. Yesterday morning, the master of Ming villa was tied up in that woman's room overnight. How could he curse downstairs? Thinking of what happened yesterday, he couldn't help but shiver.
The faces of the rest of the people also changed. Because of the confusion yesterday, they didn't have time to explore what happened in the morning. Thinking about it now, it's really weird.
"Why didn't I see Liu Li today?" A girl suddenly yelled, and everyone realized that there was one person missing. Liu Li was the girl who cried the first night.
"I remember she should live in this room."
The tall and thin man walked to the door of a room and knocked on the door twice, but there was no movement inside.
He exchanged glances with the fat man behind him, turned the doorknob, and the door swung open.
As soon as the door opened, a smell of blood came over the face immediately, and nothing changed in the room. Liu Li was lying on the bed with her eyes closed. If you don't look at the wound on her head and the red pillow cover and bed sheet under her, I thought she was still asleep.
"Ah—" It wasn't Xie Si who screamed this time, but another girl.
"She was killed in her sleep." Gu Fan said in a low voice, his face was a little gloomy at this moment.
"If I hadn't woken up that night, would I have become like this too?" Xie Si's face turned pale, he could barely accept those people in the woods before, but now it was someone he knew who died , and this method of death was something he had encountered before, which made him a little hard to accept.
Seeing the two of them coming in, the chubby man said helplessly, "The owner of this villa invites us to have dinner together, and he never gives anyone a chance to refuse."
What?Having dinner together, thinking of the appearance of the owner of the villa, Xie Si seriously doubted whether they could live after eating this meal.
