779 What color are you 17
Lan Shuying remembers very well that her uncle told her that he had opened a hotel here for twenty years.
Yesterday was exactly the end of that time.
The last letter was written thirty years ago, with a gap of ten years...... I don't know what happened, but that must be the reason why Green City is what it is.
Lan Shuying carefully restored the bottom of the bookcase to its original state.
She didn't sleep well that night.
I always heard some noise when I was half-asleep and half-awake, and it was very close to here, but I couldn't find the specific location.
It's like the muffled sound of beating clothes with a mallet, one at a time, very regular.
She tried to find it, but was haunted by nightmares and couldn't open her eyes.
It seems that the plot can't be changed.
Since she didn't come to the reading room, she simply turned over and lifted the pillow to cover her ears.
……
Early in the morning, Aisha came and knocked on the door and told her to go to breakfast.
Lan Shuying came out after washing her face, and was suddenly stunned.
The fire in the fireplace was blazing, and the proprietress turned her head and glanced at her coldly.
What surprised her was:
The proprietress was holding a half-burned garment, and judging by the small part that remained, it was royal blue!
There was a gasp behind him.
Lan Shuying turned around and saw a pale young man's face, wearing an orange and yellow sports coat, staring at the fireplace stupidly, as if he was frightened.
A calm young man patted him on the shoulder, and the relationship between the two seemed to be very good.
The young man noticed her gaze, and looked back with a calm look, neither humble nor arrogant, vaguely revealing the taste of hope for cooperation.
Lan Shuying was silent and turned back.
The fact is obvious, the player corresponding to the blue died last night.
The strange noise she heard at night had something to do with it.
Is the law of the proprietress killing someone to choose one every day? And...... Lan Shuying recalled the feeling of being frightened, and the killing process seemed to be unstoppable.
Aisha tugged at the corner of Lan Shuying's clothes, dragged her to her side, and blocked the boss's eerie gaze with her body.
This should be regarded as a return for the favor - yesterday's breakfast was Lan Shuying's kindness to her, and the current "protection" is Aisha's response.
If the previous kindness was real, perhaps this would be the beginning of a friendship. But Lan Shuying knew that she had come to contact Aisha for the sake of the mission. Therefore, in the face of the girl's trusting eyes, she felt very delicate.
Aisha didn't wear makeup today, and the pink spread around her slightly swollen eyes - she was not good at expressing kindness, and she was a little shy when she was stared at thoughtfully by Lan Shuying.
Breakfast was a fragrant cookie with lots of plates and a glass of fresh milk for each seat.
Breakfast is served free of charge, so there are a lot of people eating at this table.
After taking a seat, Lan Shuying sat Aisha and Little Jamie on the left and right, starting from the right hand of Little Jamie, the witch and the frog couple, and the uncle.
On the opposite side, opposite Aisha's seat is the hostess.
Further to the right, there is the tenant on the third floor.
There is no need to go into detail about their appearance, just know that they are wearing green sweatshirts, orange and yellow sports jackets, and the last one, the young man who has looked at her, is wearing a white shirt with a purple vest.
There are only three tenants, plus Lan Shuying here is four.
No one took the initiative to mention the missing person.
Everyone was silently chewing the cookies, but they couldn't taste anything good, the atmosphere was very stiff, and the always lively little Jamie didn't speak.
The proprietress was very mechanical when she filled her mouth with food, and she was the first to finish eating and leave the table.
Before leaving, she glanced around the back of the heads of the three players and said to herself, "Who's next?" ”
“……”
The faces of the three tenants on the opposite side changed in unison.
The uncle looked at her warningly: "Don't affect the guests to eat." ”
"Hey, hey, hey......"
The hostess smiled nervously and went to the counter.
Finally no longer having to be next to her, and the tenants breathed a sigh of relief.
They obviously know who the two opponents who are out of the game are solved, so they are very jealous of the boss lady.
In front of the strong enemy, the three of them seemed to have plans to huddle together to keep warm, looking at each other and making eye contact.
Lan Shuying guessed that they wanted to change their hotel to live in.
Aisha hung her head, hiding the sympathy in her eyes with the act of eating.
After the meal, Lan Shuying, under the instruction of her uncle, went to the counter to get a key and took her things from the reading room to the third floor.
The new room is not big but tidy and is cleaned by Aisha.
Aisha said that when she came to clean it, it was like no one had lived there, and Lan Shuying understood: this was the one that belonged to the man in yellow.
Because, the day before yesterday, he was dragged away before it was bedtime, so there are almost no traces of use here.
If this were the man in blue, at least the bed would have been used.
Lan Shuying looked around carefully and didn't find anything left, a little disappointed.
It's a relief to think about it again.
She already had a letter to Julie and an old wall clock, neither of which she had started investigating. If you are greedy and chew more, it is not necessarily a good thing to inherit a branch line at this time.
The only pity is ......
If she can touch the corpses of players who are out, she may be able to receive their skills and power-ups......
The man in yellow and the man in blue should have at least one skill.
I don't know where the proprietress hid them.
Lan Shuying tried to inquire with Aisha, but Aisha was stunned for a few seconds, reached out to cover her mouth, and warned her solemnly: "Don't ask this, she will hear!" ”
Indeed, there were footsteps approaching from downstairs, and when they arrived, they stopped at the door for a while, and then went down again.
Aisha breathed a sigh of relief: "She's gone." ”
Lan Shuying complained expressionlessly: "Her ears are so good." "It's the third floor.
The girl was afraid of her mother.
That fear was obviously not a fear of being disciplined, in fact, Lan Shuying had never seen the two of them communicate.
If I had to describe it, it was like a monster in the house: I knew about it, but I couldn't get rid of it, so I had to live with it in fear.
This family hides secrets.
……
Aisha is out of love.
What's even more embarrassing than the broken love is that the uncle plans to take her to the hospital for a check-up today.
Uncle said that he had bumped into Aisha vomiting after drinking milk.
Go to the hospital...... I guess I want to verify whether my daughter is pregnant.
Aisha could actually guess her father's thoughts.
She smiled slyly: "Of course not, that guy is a coward, I beat him up, and he won't dare touch me." ”
Then, her "vomiting" was also deliberately made angry with the uncle.
"Naughty man." Lan Shuying said a word to her, and then touched her head: "Well done." ”
The front is to say that she shouldn't treat her uncle like this, and the back is to affirm her sense of self-protection.
A teenage girl, if she can convince a tall and strong young man with bad intentions, this ability is also commendable.
"Hee-hee!"
