The hand that catches the ghost trembles slightly

It's just that after going out for a while, the little guy who was still in the room before he left disappeared.

The little guy is usually very obedient and has a high IQ, so he will never disappear for no reason at all.

Xia Yu was so anxious that she wanted to go out and fight with others.

Zhu Junyang stopped her: "Who are you going to find desperately?"

"Of course it's that woman!"

"Oh." Zhu Junyang sneered, "Let's not say that it is impossible to determine who took the little guy away. With your strength alone, no matter who took it away, you will be powerless."

Xia Yu said angrily, "Then leave it alone?! It's still so small!"

Zhu Junyang: "...Be sober, it is not only more capable than you, it may even be older than you."

Xia Yu fell silent.

The boss has said before that she is more capable than her, but the matter of being older than her...

Where is it bigger than her?

No, I can't think so...

What Zhu Junyang meant—it was older than her?

Not likely...

"Stop thinking about it." Zhu Junyang said, "Let's find a way to go to that painting and take a closer look."

One person and one ghost locked the door and walked up the stairs quietly.

It was noon, but there was not a single servant in the villa.

As soon as he stepped onto the third floor, Zhu Junyang immediately covered his nose: "The smell of earth is getting stronger."

Xia Yu once suspected that her sense of smell had failed.

On the door on the third floor is a fingerprint lock with a key. The key is easy to solve. A needle from the boss can open all the locks in the world, but this fingerprint is very——

Zhu Junyang stuck a talisman on the alarm system on the door, and then kicked the whole door to the ground.

Xia Yu: "..." She didn't think about it just now.

With a sound of "dang", the heavy wooden door slammed on the floor, dust overflowing.

Zhu Junyang was the first to bear the brunt, stepping on the door panel that fell inward, and stepped into the exhibition room.

"Boss?" Xia Yu jumped up cautiously, "Are you planning to tear your face apart?"

"Don't worry, it's fine." Zhu Junyang went straight to the innermost painting.

The painting was not at all the same as the last time they looked at it.

——The painting was originally painted as night, but now it has become day.

The theater troupe is still standing in the middle of the painting, with the blue sky above their heads, wisps of golden sunlight shining on everyone's faces, and their smiles seem to be more real.

"Is this really the same painting as the previous one?" Xia Yu murmured in front of the oil painting.

Zhu Junyang snapped his fingers.

The flame danced lightly on her index finger, Xia Yu took two steps back.

A cluster of flames jumped onto the canvas. She thought that this oil painting would be like everything she had encountered before, and be annihilated under Zhu Junyang's omnipotent flames. Who would have thought that the flames were just jumping happily on the painting, and the painting under it was intact. No damage, no sign of burning.

Zhu Junyang raised his hand and put the fire back: "This is unscientific..."

Xia Yu could only remain silent, wondering where the big brother's hobby of always looking for science in the supernatural world developed.

"According to my guess, the source of all this is this painting. As long as the painting is destroyed, all problems will be solved..." Zhu Junyang stroked the surface of the oil painting lightly with his hand, remembering the whole painting in his mind , and compared with the previous painting.

"Mr. Zhu?" The hostess' voice came from the door.

Zhu Junyang paused for a moment while stroking the oil painting, and then put it down as if nothing had happened.

The hostess was full of surprise: "Here... is something happening?"

Xia Yu didn't dare to breathe too much, her eyes flicked around, but she couldn't find a suitable reason to excuse Zhu Junyang.

Zhu Junyang didn't change his face, and said calmly: "A monster rushed in here just now. In desperation, I had no choice but to break in. I hope Madam will not blame me."

Shocked and frightened, the hostess moved closer to Zhu Junyang's side, and felt a sense of security in her heart: "It's okay, it's okay... I wonder if that monster is now...?"

Zhu Junyang shifted his gaze to the oil painting: "It ran into the painting."

Xia Yu was in awe.

The boss can actually speak nonsense so smoothly, without blinking his eyes, awesome!

The hostess took another two steps out of the way, and then said to Zhu Junyang: "Mr. Zhu, don't care about this door. If the monster really escapes into the painting, the painting can't be lost or destroyed. It's the same here." It's a waste of time. Why don't you go downstairs with me and study the solution with the masters below..."

"No need." Zhu Junyang interrupted her, "I have nothing to talk to that gang of mobs."

The hostess opened her lips again and again, but she still didn't say anything in the end, but her complexion became a little ugly.

Zhu Junyang didn't care about her reaction, and took Xia Yu downstairs directly.

The moment the door closed, Xia Yu finally got rid of the irritability of being watched all the time, Xia Yu heaved a sigh of relief, and complained, "Why is she everywhere..."

Zhu Junyang agreed: "Yes, why is she everywhere?"

Xia Yu: "...you ask me..."

Zhu Junyang nodded: "Then am I asking about the air?"

Xia Yu: "..."

But when Zhu Junyang mentioned this, some doubts in her mind became a string.

From the very beginning, this woman appeared in their sight for various reasons.

Every time no matter what happened, she would appear for the first time, and then use her superb acting skills to disguise herself as a little white flower and explain to them what was unreasonable...

For example, just now, when the painting couldn't be burned, she ran up to remind them that from the very beginning, she said that the painting could not be lost or destroyed, implying that it was very normal for them to have such a situation...

But at the end of the day, can't we still only come to the conclusion that there is a problem with the painting?

Zhu Junyang reminded her: "We can think about the problem from another angle, for example, the dead version of the hostess who appeared in the cabinet, dripping water dripping from her body, where is there water in this villa? "

Xia Yu's eyes lit up: "The pool behind!"

……

The small pool is shimmering with sparkling light. It is obviously a pool less than one meter deep. Looking around, it seems like you can't see the bottom.

The breeze gently blows across the lake, and some aquatic plants twist their bodies with the rippling water waves.

Zhu Junyang looked at Xia Yu.

Xia Yu took two steps back: "I refuse!"

Zhu Junyang: "...I haven't said..."

Xia Yu sternly said: "Needless to say, I know what you want to do! Didn't you say that you will never put me in danger in such a situation where you don't know if it's safe?! Don't look at me! I won't go down! "

Zhu Junyang persuaded him kindly: "We have almost finished investigating the villa, and now we only need this pool and the small villa behind. Although I have some abilities, I am only a human being, and I can't hold my breath underwater for a long time. You are different. , You are a ghost, your clothes won’t get wet after you go down.”

Xia Yu hugged her leg and did not let go, crying, "I won't go! If it is true as we speculate, then the woman is under this water... This whole pool of water has soaked that kind of corpse, go down If I do, I will have a psychological shadow!!"

Zhu Junyang: "You are a ghost, and she is also a ghost. Who is more noble than the other?"

Xia Yu retorted: "Then are you willing to wash your face with your own footwashing water?"

"..."

"Look! The flesh on your body is the same, who is more noble than the other?"

Zhu Junyang gritted his teeth and said, "I really want to kick you down."

It's okay not to mention this, but Xia Yu became even angrier when it was mentioned: "You don't do such things anymore?!"

Zhu Junyang coughed twice.

Xia Yu raised her neck and refused to flinch.

Finally Zhu Junyang compromised: "That's fine, you stay here and watch, if someone else approaches, call me immediately, and I'll go down and have a look by myself." After finishing speaking, he began to take off his coat.

"Wait!" Xia Yu grabbed her arm, "Are you going down by yourself?"

Zhu Junyang nodded: "Yes, you don't want to go down, and I don't want to force you, we have to find a way to go out, so I can only go down and have a look."

Xia Yu: "Then you can't stay in the water for a long time..."

"Yeah, I'll come up a few more times to take a breath."

"Then what do you do if your clothes are wet?"

"It's okay, the body temperature will dry up after a while."

Xia Yu: "..."

She gave herself a punch, and then pulled her behind her: "Okay, just stay here, can't I go down?"

Zhu Junyang smiled, his eyes seemed to be filled with tiny stars: "Be careful..."

Xia Yu: "...You transition so naturally." I always feel like I've been cheated...

But the words had been spoken, and she didn't act pretentiously, and jumped into the water directly.

Zhu Junyang reached out and grabbed her ankle, grabbed her back, and Xia Yu fell face down to the ground.

"What are you doing?!" She stared back at Zhu Junyang with wide eyes.

Zhu Junyang chuckled: "You're so active even if you're not willing to go?"

She turned Xia Yu to face her, wrapped a red thread around her ring finger three times, and then wrapped it around her hand around her ring finger.

Xia Yu lay on the ground and secretly looked at her serious side face, her heart suddenly beat fast.

Zhu Junyang's expression is too solemn! !This doesn't feel like tying a red rope by a broken pool, it's like exchanging rings in a church, fuck it! !

She was a little at a loss, so she could only ask with a dry smile: "Didn't it be tied to the little finger last time? Why did you change it to the ring finger this time?"

Zhu Junyang tied a beautiful bow with the red string, and then gently stroked the string between the two hands with the other hand, and the red string disappeared from her sight.

Zhu Junyang said: "I didn't know you very well last time. In our line of business, acquaintances always tie their ring fingers."

Xia Yu blushed, pretended to be angry and said, "You're lying!"

Zhu Junyang: "Yes, tying the ring finger is more closely connected, and it is not easy to disconnect, preventing you from not being able to find out that the red string is gone."

Xia Yu's expression changed from (*/ω＼*) to _(ツ)_/, and she crawled into the pool indifferently.

Spicy chicken Zhu Junyang, I am also moved!
