Chapter 4 The House in the Forest
Inugami stood on the deck, his eyes looking at the rough sea, his expression a little solemn.
These days, Chen Beibei also felt the strangeness of that group of people.
But.
Because the two sides are just strangers who don't know each other, Chen Beibei didn't care much, after all, as soon as the big ship docked, everyone would be separated again.
"Inujin, what do you think?"
Chen Beibei looked at the dog god and asked him.
Since Inugami has called himself outside to talk about this matter, Inugami must have his own opinion.
"The relationship between the four women and the two men doesn't seem to be good, and the smell of them can be seen from the fact that they didn't live together before."
Inugami said.
"If you live together, the smell on your body will be more or less mixed."
Inugami continued.
Although he can't fully guess the meaning of the dog god, Chen Beibei can probably know something.
Those two men should just be unfamiliar to those women.
But.
The two men were clearly controlling the women, and the women were still afraid of the two men.
"Was it threatened?"
Chen Beibei looked at the dog god and asked him.
"Hmm."
The dog god took his gaze back, and then moved to Chen Beibei's body: "Among them...... There must be a dark deed that no one can know. ”
……
Back in the cabin, the sound of a man sleeping could be heard on the other side of the curtain.
Chen Beibei and the dog god also began to sleep.
After the dog god told him about this, Chen Beibei began to pay attention to the people next door.
Chen Beibei fell asleep in a daze. On weekdays, although there will be snoring on the other side of the curtain, I don't care so much about it on weekdays. At least not like today, let those snoring noises interfere with your sleep.
"The master hasn't woken up yet......"
Zashiki Boy's voice sounded in his ears, and Chen Beibei opened his eyes tiredly.
Last night.
Chen Beibei slept very late, and even Chen Beibei forgot how he fell asleep.
"We're about to dock, aren't we?"
Chen Beibei looked at Gu Huoniao and asked her.
"Well, we'll be able to dock today. The owner looks very bad and didn't sleep well yesterday? ”
Gu Xuaniao asked.
"I was a little excited to think that I would be able to return to Qinghe Town soon."
Chen Beibei looked at Gu Huoniao and replied to her.
Yesterday, Chen Beibei and Inugami discussed the matter of the group of people next door on the deck.
They also made a decision.
Once ashore, it's up to the dog god to follow the group and see what they're doing.
If there really is such a thing as darkness.
If all four women were forced by men, the dog god would have rescued them.
Inugami is now dressed as a ronin and carries a knife on his body. Even if you don't use the power of youkai, you can still easily solve it against two ordinary men.
At this time, several women next door came out to wash together, and they also looked very tired.
During this time, it was on board all the time.
The women's skin has lost its former luster and looks a little gloomy.
The women walked briskly with their heads down, then went straight to the deck, after a quick wash. Then back to the other side of the curtain.
Every time.
Chen Beibei and they are also used to it, and at the beginning, Chen Beibei and they still tried to talk to them. But they were all silent, so in the end, Chen Beibei and they stopped greeting them.
The big ship continued to move forward, and soon it was possible to see the shore.
"Master, look."
Yingcao pointed to the coast in the distance and said to Chen Beibei.
Yingcao looked very excited, after all, after being on the ship for so long, she finally saw land.
"It's finally time to get to the shore."
Chen Beibei said.
At this moment, Chen Beibei and his Shishen were already standing on the deck, watching the ship approach the shore little by little.
It's still a very cool feeling, after all, it's something they've been looking forward to.
But.
The six men on the other side of the curtain had been quietly staying in the cabin.
Seem.
They didn't care much about whether the ship docked or not, of course, it was possible that they simply didn't want to come to the deck and had too much contact with Chen Beibei.
After all.
For them, these days, they have always avoided Chen Beibei.
……
The big ship slowly approached the shore.
Yingcao was the first to jump off the boat, but because she had been on the boat for so long, sitting or lying down most of the time, her body was no longer used to this strenuous exercise, causing Yingcao to almost fall.
"Yingcao, be careful, you won't be able to go to Qinghe Town until night now. It's not time to rush yet. ”
Guan Hu said.
"I finally don't have to take a boat, I'm almost suffocated these days."
Yingcao stabilized her body, and barely fell.
Chen Beibei and the others also got off the boat in turn, but at this time, the six people on the other side of the curtain had not come down.
"It's docked, and the guests can already disembark."
The ship's employees walked towards the cabin, reminding them as they went, and at this time, the six people walked out of the cabin unhurriedly.
"It's finally here, let's get off the boat."
A man said with a smile.
When the man spoke, he looked at Chen Beibei and them, and Chen Beibei hurriedly withdrew his gaze, not wanting the man to find out that he was looking at him.
"Inugami, I'll leave it to you. Be careful. If there is anything to do, go directly back to Qinghe Town to find us. ”
Chen Beibei looked at the dog god and said softly.
"Hmm."
Inugami nodded.
At this time, Chen Beibei and the dog god were facing away from those people, and the distance was relatively far, so even if they talked about such a thing, those people would not notice.
In fact.
During the time when he was separated from Guan Hu, Chen Beibei was already thinking about one thing.
During that time, let Guan Hu, Gu Huoniao and Yingcao stay in Chiba County to investigate the matter of the two daughters. caused Chen Beibei to be separated from them for more than a month.
During this period, I was still very worried about their safety, but there was no way to contact them.
So.
At that time, Chen Beibei thought about equipping them with a mobile phone after returning to Qinghe Town.
At least.
Gu Tori and Inujin are the two of them who need them, after all, the two of them often go out to do something. And most of these things are more dangerous.
Either way, it's reassuring.
If you let Gu Bird and Inushen learn to use mobile phones, then you can quickly convey any situation to yourself in the future.
As for Yingcao and Zashiki Boy, they don't need it.
In Chen Beibei's mind, the products born of these scientific and technological advances will indeed bring convenience in many places.
But.
It will also change the original life and make life a different way.
Human beings have been changed a lot by mobile phones, computers, and other devices. A lot of human activities have gradually disappeared, and Chen Beibei doesn't want the monsters to do the same.
……
"Get in the car."
A black car stopped in front of the six people, and inside the car was a man in a leather suit and sunglasses.
The six men did not speak, but silently got into the car, and the car drove towards the street.
Inugami hid his knife in his clothes, then called a car and followed the black car. Inugami is now almost able to adapt to human life.
Some of the daily means of transportation can still be used normally.
"Why stalk people?"
The driver asked.
"You just drive, some things are better not known, aren't they?"
Inugami said coldly.
Some people will always be very curious, and these curiosities often put them in danger.
In many cases, it is often safer not to know something.
The driver saw that the tone of the dog god was not good, so he had to drive obediently and stop talking.
In fact.
In the mind of the dog god, he can already guess something. Those women may have been smuggled from Fuso to this side of the sea and then sold.
After all.
Such a business can indeed bring them great wealth, and, once they get those women here. In a place where no one knew them, they didn't even have a chance to call for help.
The black car gradually drove towards the suburbs, and soon left the city.
There are fewer and fewer cars around.
"It's easy to spot this way, should we stop?"
The driver asked worriedly.
After leaving the concrete road, the black car walked onto a dirt-covered road. There are hardly any cars on such roads.
The driver's concerns are indeed worth thinking about.
"Okay."
Inugami said.
Inugami gave the fare to the moment, and then followed the car alone.
However, in order to prevent them from being discovered, the dog god only walked far away in the surrounding wasteland. The car is not very fast on such a road, and this speed can still be easily followed by the dog god.
"If you come to such a place, do you want to sell it to some countrymen?"
Inugami thought so.
Now there are indeed many people in the countryside who have no way to marry a wife, and to a large extent, as long as they are healthy women, they will definitely be able to sell.
The car did not drive into the countryside.
Instead, they stopped in front of a huge villa, which was more like a castle than a villa.
"In such a place, since there will be a house."
Inugami looked at the scene in front of him suspiciously, the car had already driven into a forest. Inugami thought that the car was just taking a shortcut and passing through the forest.
What I didn't expect was that a big house would appear in the forest.
The house looks a little old, it is an ancient Gothic style building, and when you look at it from a distance, there is a hint of weirdness.
"Has it been taken care of?"
The driver asked.
"Hmm."
A man replied.
Then the two men got out of the car together, and the driver handed the two drivers a paper bag.
And then.
The two men left happily.
The dog god hid far away in the forest, looking at everything in front of him, after the two men left.
The four women still hadn't gotten out of the car.
The driver was quietly leaning on the car and smoking a cigarette, humming a light tune in his mouth.
"Sleeping Beauty in the Forest.
Guests from afar.
The old guests have just left, and the new ones follow.
Someone wants to wake up Sleeping Beauty.
But.
They'll just fall asleep......"
The driver quickly finished the cigarette in his hand, extinguished the cigarette butt with his foot, and then bent down into the car.
The driver just bent down and got his upper body into the car.
Subsequently.
The driver brought out a woman, the woman in green.
The woman remained motionless and looked as if she was asleep.
The driver carried the woman in green into the house, and then carried the remaining three women into the house.
"You must not be asleep, are you?"
Inugami thought so.
None of the four women were children, and even if they were asleep, they would not wake up when they were picked up.
"What the hell are they trying to do?"
Inugami continued to stare at the house, and the driver took the four women inside, locked the door, and drove away.
……
Far from the countryside in the forest, a black car slowly drove out.
No one cares why the car is driving into the forest.
After all.
It has nothing to do with them.
After the driver left, the dog god looked around the house, the house was very large, and it was the kind of deliberately antique building. Although the windows on the lower floors are tightly closed, there are still a few windows open at the top of the house.
Inugami entered the room through one of the windows.
The room should have been occupied by no one for a long time, so there was a strange smell.
Because the house is sitting in the middle of the forest, the light is very dim.
At this time, Inugami couldn't be sure if there was anyone else in the house, so he didn't turn on the lights.
Just look carefully.
At this time, the dog god wanted to find that it was a woman, and in any case, these women had come here on the same ship as himself, and if he saw them in danger and turned a blind eye, this was something that the dog god could not do.
In those days when I followed Kawahira teak, I was also deeply influenced by Kawasira teak.
He is a revered canine priest.
When you are able to help others, then you must go out of your way to help them.
When the road is uneven, draw a knife to help.
This is just a very ordinary thing for the dog god. What's more, it is only a few weak women who are in danger.
There are a lot of strange things in the room, and there are many portraits of women on the walls.
All beautiful though.
However, in such a gloomy atmosphere, it still feels a little weird and infiltrating.
The dog god walked all the way down the bottom of the building, and at this time, the main task of the dog god was to find the woman.
After all.
Inugami hasn't fully figured out what's going on yet, and it would be nice to be able to ask them about it.
