Chapter 40: The Villa in the Mountains

After the words fell, several of us ran out one after another. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"The southeast direction should be the area of Cuiling Mountain, and the people who live there are either rich or noble. Does Uncle Kang usually have any business dealings with the people over there? I asked Mu Feng.

"It's not ordinary people who can live there, my dad has a small business. How could there be anything to do with them. Mu Feng shook his head and replied to me.

I turned around and glanced at He Ling and Liu Qiming: "It seems that you have to go over and take a look." If Uncle Kang is really there, no matter what the reason is, I think this thing is a bit strange. The people here basically know me and Mu Feng, and we used to startle snakes. The two nodded, and immediately set off.

I didn't come back until about late. As soon as he entered the room, He Ling ran straight to the table and poured himself a large glass of water. Liu Qiming also sat on the chair and gasped for a moment. Both of them were visibly tired.

Mu Feng and I glanced at each other, and we both felt a little sorry. After a while, he was born and asked, "How is it?" ”

He Ling wiped off the water stains at the corners of his mouth, and returned breathlessly: "There are a total of eleven families over there. There are seven households that may have business dealings with Mu Feng's father. But after investigation, none of these seven families had contact with Uncle Kang. Not even a personal relationship. "After listening to He Ling's words, Mu Feng and I were both disappointed.

Seeing that He Ling was no longer talking, Liu Qiming added on the side: "There were only ten families living in it before, and a new one just moved in a few days ago. ”

Before I could speak, He Ling said disapprovingly: "I just moved in, and it's impossible to have any contacts." And we haven't looked into it, so there's nothing wrong with it. ”

Liu Qiming smiled at her helplessly: "I'm just mentioning it by the way." ”

"Did this house move in before Uncle Kang's disappearance, or after the disappearance?" I asked.

"Before the disappearance." Liu Qiming answered me affirmatively.

He Ling asked with a puzzled expression, "Is there any problem?" ”

I shook my head: "Since the hexagram has already shown that something is wrong with people in the southeast direction. Then let's not let go of the slightest possibility. After a pause, he continued: "Early tomorrow morning, call Zhuyan, and we will go together." Door-to-door surveys. Mainly concentrated in the seven households that may have dealings, and the new one. ”

Sleepless nights.

Early the next morning, a few of us set off. Zhu Yan took He Ling and Mu Feng as a group to visit the seven families in front. Liu Qiming and I went straight to the newly moved household.

Halfway up the mountainside of Cuiling Mountain, a two-story villa is hidden among the towering trees. A large open space was reclaimed in front of the villa. On the pure black gate, two golden bronze lion heads shine brightly. The yard is spacious, and the entire ground is paved with black and white pebbles.

The man who came to open the door was a man of about thirty or forty years of age, who looked handsome and attractive. After explaining the intention, he was very cooperative and invited us in.

The decoration of the house as a whole seems to belong to the European style. The color is single, simple and elegant. But from the furnishings of the room, it is not difficult to see the luxury and wealth of the owner.

The man invited us to sit down in the living room and introduced, "My name is Xu Dewei, and I just moved here a few days ago. This is my wife Chen Fang, my son Wenjun, and my daughter Wenya. After a pause, he continued: "If there is anything you need our help with, just ask. ”

Chen Fang poured a few glasses of water, smiled at us, and sat aside. The two children cowered down beside her and looked at us.

I asked straight to the point, "Do you know Mu Xikang?" ”

Xu Dewei thought for a moment, shook his head at me, and replied affirmatively: "I don't know." ”

"This person was killed in this area a few days ago, I wonder if you have seen any suspicious people?" My eyes wandered around them. When I said that Uncle Kang was killed, Chen Fang was visibly relieved.

Liu Qiming and I glanced at each other. Then Xu Dewei, who heard Xu Dewei on the side, replied without hesitation: "No, I haven't seen any suspicious people." ”

We asked a few more questions one after another, and he answered them in an orderly manner. Chen Fang didn't make a sound from beginning to end, and the two children were also unusually well-behaved.

I looked down at the time and said to Xu Dewei, "Okay." Thank you very much for your cooperation, and be more careful about entering and exiting recently. If you find anything, please contact us as soon as possible. The latter nodded at me.

I leaned forward and touched his son's little face, and said with a smile, "Your son is so good." ”

Xu Dewei smiled a little unnaturally: "It's okay, it's okay." Then politely escorted us to the door.

As soon as I got in the car, I called Mu Feng: "No need to look for it, we have a clue here, hurry home." ”

Liu Qiming didn't seem to be noncommittal to my words, and smiled silently.

"You should know the first time you saw them, right?" I asked him.

Liu Qiming shook his head: "I just think there is a rotten smell here." ”

I nodded, not making a sound. This should be the sensitivity unique to their soul seducers.

In this house, there is a weirdness everywhere from the moment you enter. Especially the child's face, which was cold and piercing. It's definitely not the temperature that a normal person should have.

As soon as I got home, Mu Feng asked me urgently, "What clues have you found?" ”

"It's the new family, there's a problem." I'm sure to reply to him.

"What's the problem? What did you find? He Ling also asked anxiously.

I looked at her and said solemnly: "If I'm not mistaken, Xu Dewei and his family are not "people". ”

When the words fell, except for Liu Qiming, everyone was stunned for a moment.

After a while, Mu Feng asked, "What do you mean?" What is not a person? Is it a ghost? ”

Liu Qiming shook his head on the side: "It's not a ghost." If it's a ghost, I'm sure I'll find out. ”

"It's not a human, it's not a ghost. What's that? He Ling asked.

"It's a vampire." I replied slowly. This time, including Liu Qiming, everyone looked shocked.

I paused and explained, "People now think of vampires as myths. In fact, they also belong to a type of zombie, and they are all products of corpse transformation. But they are superior to zombies, thoughtful, and intelligent. Feed on human blood to relieve your stiff body. But at the end of the day, it's all evil. ”

After a moment, He Ling asked me in a loud voice, "Then what should we do now?" When the words fell, everyone turned their eyes to me. Looking at their convinced eyes, to be honest, a trace of emotion welled up in my heart.

I said, "Prepare tonight, we'll be secretly going there tomorrow night." Although I can't tell where Uncle Kang is for the time being, I can be sure that he will definitely have nothing to do with this family. ”
