Chapter 244: His Father's Letter
;
"That's the way it is. ”
After talking for a long time, several people spelled out a more consistent statement.
Probably on the day Qin Yue left, an uninvited guest came to Dongcheng. This person is naturally Gao Tang's brother.
He first summoned many bigwigs in Dongcheng in the name of cooperation, most of these people are black and white, and their wealth is not very clean.
Father Lin was naturally also invited, and originally persuaded him not to go, because Qin Yue was not around, and the other party was unknown.
But Lin Mu's father insisted on going, and his subordinates couldn't stop him.
Only the bigwigs were allowed to enter the banquet, so the men had to wait outside the door.
That night, Father Lin came home a little sullen, or should I say thoughtful.
Several people who followed Father Lin to the banquet venue looked at each other, but no one dared to ask what happened.
That night, the light in Lin's father's study was on overnight, and the next day before dawn, he drove out by himself, and no one was allowed to follow.
He didn't return until late afternoon, looking tired and holding a brown paper bag in his hand.
In the evening, Gao Tang's brother came to the other mansion as a guest, and a quarrel broke out with Father Lin during the period, but Father Lin asked no one to go in, so he didn't know why.
"At that time, the man came out and said, 'Blood debt is paid by blood, it is justified,' and then he left very angry. ”
One of the subordinates leaning against the edge of the couch lowered his head and recalled, looking confused.
"Yes, and then the boss locked himself in the study, and the next morning he found out that it was too late. ”
The tone of the other subordinate was very self-reproachful when he said this, Lin Mu walked over and patted him lightly on the shoulder twice, and said in a deep voice: "This is a stubborn disease, it's none of your business." ”
Lin Mu has seen the doctor's appraisal results and interviewed the attending doctor face-to-face.
He said that Father Lin was completely at the end of his crossbow, and his body could still hold up with all his will and expensive imported medicines.
This disease is partly caused by the fire that year, and partly due to heart disease, which has accumulated for too many years, so that the internal environment has been under continuous high pressure.
He warned Father Lin many times, telling him to put down what he was doing and recuperate well, maybe he could live for two more years. But Father Lin didn't listen, and he didn't seem to plan to live a little longer.
And this time, it finally became a prophecy.
Although Lin Mu knew that his father's health was not very good, he never expected it to be so serious.
He really didn't care about him well, and he just "obeyed orders" all the time, which was also the most filial thing he could do.
However, it is far from enough, from the standpoint of father and son, Lin Mu is obviously not qualified.
"Alright, you all go and rest, there's no time to rest. ”
Du Xian helped Lin Mu dismiss the people, and when there were only two of them left in the safe house, he said to him: "If you want to see it, just watch it." ”
Lin Mu glanced at him, and silently opened the brown paper bag handed to him by the lawyer, which contained some passbooks and several documents, which were ordered separately.
Lin Mu looked at them one by one, some of these were the "participants" who had been with Lin Father in the past few years, and some were like recording the progress, correlating each time they had done to the time and making a chronology.
Although it was a little strange, this was indeed Father Lin's handwriting, and it was the first time for Lin Mu to sit so quietly and read his father's handwriting.
The thickest of this is the chronicle of Lin Mu's handwritten mark, starting from the day he rediscovered Lin Mu ten years ago, which densely records the details of all his plans, and in the first two years, the arrangement of Lin Mu is mentioned the most times.
The interior is very quiet, although it is daylight outside, the sky is gray, and the white fluorescent lights are on inside.
Du Xian consciously went to brew coffee, which could be regarded as avoidance, and let Lin Mu sit on the white sofa alone and slowly sort out his emotions.
He is not a heartless person, but at the same time he is not a person who can be miserable and mournful.
The greatest sorrow that Lin Mu could make was silent mourning, his eyes did not change, and he looked at the things in his hands very calmly. After reading the chronicle, he put it aside and flipped through the documents in the back slightly.
At this moment, suddenly a piece of paper much smaller than the A4 paper fell, no, to be exact, it should be a card.
Lin Mu picked it up a little strangely, and he didn't know which layer it was originally sandwiched on.
The card was falling face down, and when he flipped it over, it was an unfamiliar note, but there was something terrible written on it.
"Hmm, have you found anything, this kind of expression?" Du Xian, who came over with coffee, saw that Lin Mu's face was unfathomable, and he couldn't help but glance at it.
Lin Mu did not shy away from it, and directly put the card on the table to Du Xian.
Du Xian put down the dinner plate and really leaned over to look at it, and was stunned for a moment as soon as his eyes touched: "Lin family's house?"
"Quiet, come here. ”
The mourning platform was re-set, and after Lin Yu finished the incense, he also asked Lin Jing to come over and offer the incense.
There was a new one on the tablet, Lin Jinghao took a closer look, and it turned out to be her eldest Uncle Lin Tao.
At this time, Lin Yucai sighed and said to her: "Although your uncle hasn't done much good, but in the end, it is the descendants of the Lin family, and it was because of me that I was depressed back then, so I took him back." ”
"Uncle, when did you not do it?"
Although Lin Jinghao didn't have much affection for her uncle, she was still a little sad when she suddenly learned that her relatives had died, or it should be said that she was stunned.
"Last month, I fell down the stairs because of my leg inconvenience, and I didn't have it last week. ”
Suddenly I didn't know what to say, Lin Jinghao couldn't say what he deserved, but Lin Tao would be this ending, and it was completely his own doing.
She didn't ask her cousins how they were, they were already adults, and it wouldn't be okay if they left it alone. Lin Yu didn't seem to have any intention of picking them up, which made Lin Jing breathe a sigh of relief.
This family can finally be taken back, and she doesn't want to do anything discordant.
There were only two servants at home, and now they are cleaning up inside and out, Gao Tang is a guest, but he also took the pillar incense, saying that he made it for his father.
After the relocation ceremony, Lin Jinghao told Lin Yu that she was a little tired, so she went back to the room directly.
Actually, she didn't want to talk to Gao Tang more.
The picture of meeting Lin Mu in the cemetery has always been floating in her mind, and Lin Mu's appearance really makes her very distressed.
But at the same time, she felt very powerless, because she didn't know how to help him out, and she couldn't even say words of comfort, and now Lin Mu refused her approach.
It's bad, it's really bad, there's nothing worse than now.
Although Gao Tang told her some information, Lin Jinghao always felt that there were still many things she didn't know, and her eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of fog that she couldn't dissolve.
Because there were outsiders, she slept with the door locked.
He said he was sleeping, but he wasn't asleep, he just lay flat with his eyes open.
The bed that I haven't seen for a long time has been replaced with new sheets, and it still has some smell of sunshine.
Lin Jinghao couldn't describe the throbbing in her chest at this time, she always felt that a long time had passed, as if it was a matter of her previous life, and it was really good to be able to return to this home again.
However, while thinking like this, Lin Jinghao's eyes flashed in front of Lin Mu's expressionless appearance dressed in black.
What can be done to free him from the current shackles?
In a daze, Lin Jing fell asleep, but she was not completely asleep, her body still felt, although her eyes were closed, she seemed to be able to see her surroundings clearly.
Even in this half-dreaming state, her brain didn't stop for a moment, thinking about how to get to Lin Mu's side, or she just stood in front of him regardless of it, and he wouldn't drive her out directly.
The two of them are always like this, if one retreats, one must advance, Lin Jing doesn't mind being the one who takes a step forward again, but how much she hopes that Lin Mu can come out by herself once.
This time, Lin Jinghao finally dreamed again, and she was still conscious in the dream, laughing at herself for whether she had another prophetic dream.
However, the content is not new at all, it is still exactly the same as the last time, there is blood everywhere, the characters are still three, and even the way and texture of the blood splash are the same, nothing has changed.
She slept very unsteadily, her body sank sharply, and she woke up in an instant after a violent tremor.
Her eyes widened in the moonlight, and Lin Jing held her breath for four or five seconds before she gasped like a person who had fallen into the water and was saved.
My whole body was cold, my forehead was covered with sweat, and so was my back.
It's the same dream, this is the first time, is there any special meaning?
Lin Jing really wanted to ask, wanted to ask about that "it", but there was no wave in her mind, and there was no response at all.
But at this moment, she suddenly heard a slight noise outside the window.
Is it a rat?
But it's impossible to think about it, although this house has not been inhabited for a long time, it has been thoroughly cleaned today, there can be no rats, and rats will not choose to grope outside the window where there is nothing.
Lin Jing sighed in her heart, she has nothing to do with the window, although the weather has become hot now, but the cool breeze at night is blowing, and the temperature is right to sleep with the window open.
Listening motionlessly on the bed, Lin Jing really wanted to make sure that she heard it again, could it be that she heard it wrong, after all, what was now filling her eardrums was the sound of her noisy heartbeat.
"Click. ”
However, this subtle voice sounded again, very soft, as if separated by a veil.
Lin Jinghao subconsciously climbed down from the bed carefully, she didn't turn on the light, but lightly picked up a long metal ornament next to the table and slowly moved it to the window.
Glancing out, although there was a light underneath, the trees in the yard were growing this season, blocking most of the light, so her vision was not bright, and she could only see a black and swarthy mass.
But it wasn't her delusion, something was coming towards her window, and she instinctively felt the danger, and subconsciously clenched the metal rod in her hand.
Just when her spirit was tense to a certain level, an object suddenly flew in from the window, the speed was too fast to see what it was, Lin Jinghao closed her eyes and threw the metal rod in her hand over.
"Oh my God!"
At the same time, a suppressed exclamation sounded, and in the next second, Lin Jinghao was pressed against the wall with his mouth covered.
