Chapter 240: The Successor (5)
The person who came was still known to Su Ming, and Su Ming recognized her, the woman who insisted that he was a player before. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Can you join me too?"
Qian Huan peeked in from the outside and playfully stuck out his tongue at the weak man.
Su Ming glanced at it and secretly admired it in his heart.
This woman is really powerful, she can play noble and elegant, become charming and mature, and now she can interpret the image of youth and beauty so well, if it weren't for her physical development being too mature, she would definitely make this group of high school students feel more close.
"Okay, sister, you can play together!"
Ye Ying greeted warmly.
Then Qian Huan walked in against the wall, gently moved a chair, and sat down beside Zhong Xiutian.
Su Ming looked at Qian Huan's leg quietly, and opened his mouth to ask, "Is the sprain serious?" ”
"It's okay." Qian Huan replied: "Thank you for your concern." ”
He asked and glanced at the hem of Qian Huan's dress again, and there was indeed some wetness.
"Have you been out?" Su Ming asked.
Qian Huan was slightly stunned, his face was dazed, and he shook his head: "No." ”
"I saw your skirt was a little wet, so I thought you were out."
Qian Huan looked down at her dress, a strange light flashed in her pupils, and then she showed a smile that suddenly dawned: "This, I think it should have been wet when I applied ice cubes just now, I didn't expect Young Master Mo to be so careful." ”
Su Ming smiled and looked away thoughtfully.
"Why don't you have a good rest and play board games with us?"
Su Ming asked with a smile on his face.
"I can't sleep, and I don't want to talk to those people about finance and stuff, and to be honest, I'm not particularly interested in that." Qian Huan said as he glanced at the board game they were playing, it was the Three Kingdoms Killing.
It was Su Ming's turn to play the cards, Su Ming calmly touched the cards, looked at it and ate a peach, and by the way, killed Lu Meng next to him, and then ended the round.
It's Zhong Xiutian's turn, Zhong Xiutian is Lu Meng, he was slashed by Su Ming just now, and used up the last flash, although his hand is full of cards, and he is full of equipment, and there are a lot of peaches, but he knows that if he reveals that he is not flashing, all enemies will attack this side.
Why? Because he is an anti-thief, and because Lu Meng's strength was too weak in the early stage, his two anti-thief compatriots have died, and now only one can still fight side by side with him, of course, this compatriot doesn't seem to last long.
"Xiaotian, if you can't draw the Zhuge Repeater, you're going to die." Ye Ying reminded in a group.
Zhong Xiutian frowned, after drawing so many cards, he felt that someone was hiding a crossbow and not making a move, who could it be.
This white-haired young master doesn't look like he can play board games, but he didn't expect it to be unexpectedly powerful to play, obviously he didn't have any outstanding performance, but in the end, he found that this person hadn't even encountered a crisis, and always kept half-blooded and waited for the changes.
Three minutes later, the other thief was really overwhelmed and dying, and then a new round of shuffling.
This round of the whole card was drawn Zhong Xiutian did not see the repeater being discarded, indicating that someone did have a private crossbow, just when he was going to gamble with the three cards he had in his hand in this game, Su Ming, who was in front of him, lost two cards directly after touching two cards, which were two repeaters.
"I'm sorry, but there are too many weapons, I don't really like them." Su Ming chuckled.
Zhong Xiutian's expression tightened.
A new round of shuffling has just passed, and now the two crossbows have been lost, if you want to draw, you have to boil up another round of drawing, but it is obvious that the anti-thief compatriots can't bear it, and when the time comes, the loyal ministers and lords will attack together, and the traitor will probably help, but he will not make himself stronger.
Now that the trend is gone, we can only gamble!
Thinking of this, Zhong Xiutian gritted his teeth, directly loaded the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, and slashed at Liu Bei fiercely, and after slashing twice in a row, the duel Nanban was exhausted, and directly turned the five blood Liu Bei into one blood!
Here's a chance!
Zhong Xiutian gritted his teeth, he was a Nanban again, and after sending away his fellow anti-thieves, he touched three of them, and then Liu Bei became zero blood!
Su Ming casually threw out a peach: "Don't panic, lord." ”
As the lord, Ye Ying nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, very good." ”
Zhong Xiutian ended the round gloomily, lost a lot of cards, and was hacked to death by Liu Bei after three reincarnations.
In the end, the lord and loyal ministers won~~
looked at the time, it was already one o'clock in the morning, and then Qian Huan joined and played a few more, and many people became sleepy and left one by one.
In the end, only Zhong Xiutian, Su Ming, and Qian Huan were left.
It's just that the game mode has changed from a board game to a chess game, Su Ming and Qian Huan play chess, and Zhong Xiutian is watching the game from the sidelines.
"It's so late, don't you go to bed?"
Su Ming's eyes wandered, and he glanced at Qian Huan, who was sitting opposite, the other party was playing chess wholeheartedly at the moment, and he looked like he was really a character in this game world, which was very different from the sharp appearance when he questioned Su Ming at the beginning.
"I don't feel sleepy at all." While speaking, Qian Huan turned his head to Zhong Xiutian: "That, are you called Wu Tian?" ”
"Well, what's my sister's name?" Zhong Xiutian showed a well-behaved smile.
"My name is Qian Huan."
Oh, it turned out to be Qian Huan, Zhong Xiutian and Su Ming both sighed in their hearts.
"Xiaotian, aren't you going to sleep?"
"No, it's fun just to watch you play chess."
It seemed that this woman wanted to stay alone with me, and Su Ming had this feeling.
So Su Ming spoke: "Miss Qian, do you want me to help you go back to rest?" ”
Qian Huan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then came back to his senses and nodded: "It's okay." ”
In this way, I can be alone with Mo Qiu, so I just let him send me back, Qian Huan thought in his heart.
So the two left after saying goodbye to Zhong Xiutian.
The Lin family's family villa has been passed down from generation to generation, with a profound heritage, even if you walk on the aisle, most of the decorations hanging on both sides are rare famous paintings, there are a few Su Ming can recognize, but there is only one in about ten pairs.
Walking in the aisle, Su Ming and Qian Huan chatted about the famous paintings on the wall, Su Ming's knowledge in this regard was completely absent, and he was almost unilaterally crushed by Qian Huan during the conversation, and he could only occasionally echo Qian Huan's talk.
He even felt that his identity had been exposed, but for some reason Qian Huan, who was leaning on him now, did not have the slightest intention of exposing it.
Did you really not notice it, or did you realize it but didn't want to mention it?
Then, finally, the finish line arrived.
Standing at the door of the room, Qian Huan said "thank you", then turned around and glanced at Su Ming meaningfully, and said softly: "Young Master Mo, please be careful of Wu Tian." ”
This sentence made Su Ming stunned, and he wanted to ask again after being surprised, but Qian Huan had already turned around and entered the house and closed the door with his backhand.
Be careful of Wu Tian?
"Why did she tell me to be careful of Wu Tian?" Su Ming stood at the door of Qian Huan's room and thought to himself.
Could it be that Wu Tian is also a player? Was seen by Qian Huan?
It's a possibility.
But it's a little strange why the other person wants to tell himself.
While thinking, Su Ming went back to the room by himself, he lay on the bed, and then fell asleep by himself.
In the dark night, everyone fell asleep, some people who had difficulty falling asleep were chatting by the fireplace, and Lin Zheng was dealing with official business in his study, and now he had no other fun except work, since he lost her, he felt that he was missing a piece of something in his heart, so he could only make up for it with work.
Then, suddenly, Lin Zheng heard a subtle metallic voice, he instinctively raised his head, and then, with a cold neck, his vision swirled, and finally, everything returned to darkness......
While everyone was unaware of it, the night had passed, and torrential rain poured down from the sky, cutting off the view, and dark clouds were thick in the sky, blocking the daylight.
The earth, where the sun does not shine, is still silent and dark, and the darkness outside the window is so dark that no one will notice even if the dawn has fallen. It wasn't until a maid came to remind the guests who had been chatting all night to enjoy breakfast that they realized that the night was over.
At the table, all overnight guests enjoy a healthy meal.
Lin Hui's classmates are not very old, and they don't know the etiquette, so they are a little rude at the dinner table, but everyone doesn't care, and yesterday's conversation and sleep make everyone feel very good.
Zhong Xiutian sat not far from Lin Hui with a dark circle under his eyes, he didn't sleep yesterday, but kept watch all night in Lin Hui's room.
Zhong Xiutian glanced at the people at the table and did not find Su Ming.
"Where's yesterday's white-haired brother?"
After thinking for a while, Zhong Xiutian walked up to Qian Huan's side and asked.
Qian Huan also looked for it, and it was true that there was no Su Ming.
"I don't know, maybe I'm still sleeping, after all, it was so late yesterday, and it's normal to get up late." Qian Huan showed an understanding smile and took the dessert from the plate and put it in his mouth.
She turned her head and beckoned to the old butler, and when the other party came over, Qian Huan instructed, "Can you prepare more breakfast?" It seems that someone hasn't gotten up yet. ”
The housekeeper bowed and nodded: "Miss Qian, don't worry, I was going to do this." ”
is worthy of being the housekeeper of the Lin family, and the quality is very high, and many people praised it in their hearts.
After the meal, everyone gathered in the hall to chat, and they knew the schedule for the day.
The Lin family has such a rule, whenever the heirs come of age, the parents will announce some very important matters during the coming-of-age ceremony, and there are small changes in each generation, but most of them are handed over to the newly grown heirs to a company, or a position, or a marriage contract, or other arrangements.
However, I heard that this time Lin Zheng was going to announce the will, and some people said that he planned to inherit all the property by Lin Hui.
Although this has never happened in the history of the Lin family, Lin Zheng's unforgettable love story and tragic ending are known to almost everyone in the circle, and he made such a decision after his wife's death, although it was unexpected, but it was also reasonable.
It won't be long before the head of the family, Lin Zheng, will probably announce the specific matters concerning Lin Hui's inheritance.
Another hour passed.
"Now, the time should have come."
Some people felt that this announcement ceremony seemed too late, and this was not only the guests, but also the housekeeper.
The old butler's gray eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and he seemed to be a little puzzled, it stands to reason that the master should have come out a long time ago, why hasn't he come out yet?
"Hasn't the master come out yet?" The old butler said to the waiter beside him.
The waiter nodded, reached out and wiped the beads of sweat from his head: "Yes." ”
"Did you ring the bell?"
"Pulled."
"Haven't you come out yet?"
"Yes."
The butler's brow furrowed even tighter, and a bad premonition welled up in his heart.
"I'll go check on the situation."
……
Another hour later.
"Knock knock!"
A loud knock on the door woke Su Ming from his sweet sleep.
It's been a long time since I've slept so deeply, Su Ming glanced at the time after he woke up, it was already 10 o'clock in the morning!
The ceremony was supposed to be held at 9 o'clock, and I overslept!
He scurried out of bed with a thud and ran straight to open the door.
With a creak, the door opened, and Su Ming, who was wearing pajamas, saw a large group of people standing densely outside, everyone looked very nervously to this side, and then after seeing that Su Ming was fine, the eyes of these people changed suddenly, and strange emotions spread in everyone's pupils.
The first thought in Su Ming's heart at this moment was: Oops, no!
Sure enough, the butler was the first to speak.
"Young Master Mo, why can't my ******** open your door?"
Su Ming swallowed.
He did do something on the door, but it was to prevent a killer from killing him in the middle of the night, but now it seems that because of this, he has become the biggest suspect.
"I, I just stuck something on the door because I'm very insecure, so I have to do it, or I won't be able to sleep at all."
Su Ming casually made an excuse, his eyes moved, he roughly looked at everyone's expressions, and then came to a conclusion: It seems that what happened is not a trivial matter.
"Did something happen? I see that everyone is very nervous. Su Ming asked cautiously.
The housekeeper sighed, his old and gray brows twisted together, and said sadly: "Master, he was killed!" ”
Dead!
Great, the game is on!
This was the first thought that popped into Su Ming's mind.
And then the second thought was: Oh no, I'm going to close the door, I'm the biggest suspect now.
……
Now everyone did not continue Lin Hui's coming-of-age ceremony, everyone sat quietly in the living room, and the living room was so crowded with dozens of people that the housekeeper had to bring chairs from elsewhere.
Although everyone didn't say it explicitly, it was obvious that what these people suspected the most was themselves, and Su Ming was extremely clear about this.
"Rest assured, the police have already been called." The butler's old voice came from a distance, and then the butler stood in front of everyone: "Please calm down, the police will deal with these things and catch the murderer, please cooperate." (To be continued.) )
