Sister and brother affection
All kinds of household garbage float on the turquoise water, and the low houses on both sides of the river bank are tightly closed doors and windows. Eerie and filthy sewers were discharging a terrible-colored liquid into the river, there were traces of a campfire among the wildly growing weeds and rubble, and a crooked fishing rod was tied to a stone pier.
In the breeze, a woman dressed completely out of tune with her surroundings appeared on the other side of the river, looking at the bumpy road with a look of disgust, her bleeding arm outstretched.
With the sound of blood dripping to the ground, some thick vines gradually broke through the ground, forming a good path. She nodded slightly satisfied, and walked forward with light steps.
Just as she had just crossed the first two corners, a middle-aged man who was smoking on the balcony was staring at everything in front of him in amazement, and the cigarette butt in his hand fell to the ground.
Maybe it was the sparks from the cigarette butts that angered the vines, or maybe maybe she was in a bad mood. With a scream, the man in pajamas fell headlong onto the thorny vines, and the whole person was pierced like a hedgehog.
The scream woke up the surrounding residents from their dreams, and more and more lights began to gather. She was angry, and more and more blood was pouring out of her arm, just as she decided to let all these good people stop for a while.
Another person who looked exactly like her appeared, and he gently flicked the rosary in his hand, and everything around him began to fall silent.
People who were supposed to get up and get dressed began to snore loudly as if they were blindfolded by the Sandman. The bedrooms, which were still bright, have also become pitch black. The vines that were still swelling wildly on the ground shrank one after another as if they had been stopped.
"Are you going to bother me again?" The woman who noticed these anomalies looked back and asked, "You freak." β
"I just don't want you to sink deeper," the man later rushed to her side, grabbed her injured arm and stroked it lightly, and the wound was gone.
As if to help her heal her wounds, her mood stabilized a little, and she said in a much gentler tone than before: "I have to deny, Ya'er, you are always better at healing than me." β
"That's because you always care about hurting you, my good sister." The man named Ya'er seemed glad that his sister had regained her composure, and he smiled and withdrew the rosary and said, "After such a failure, are you still going to trust that guy?" β
"If it weren't for him, I would have died in that ruined temple, my good brother." Su Qingwen lowered her voice and said, "I know that guy is not a master who can be easily dealt with, but I have to try." Because he was, after all, our father's protΓ©gΓ©. β
"My good sister, think about what he's doing now. Thinking about what he did after his father's death, I don't think he was a trustworthy person, and we have to do it alone. Su Qingya said in an extremely contemptuous tone: "Believe me, as long as our sister and brother are of the same heart, we should be able to fulfill our father's last wish." β
"Speaking lightly, can you explain what you tried to lock your dearest people in the cellar that night, you wanted to take my identity?" Su Qingwen stared at her younger brother with disgust and said, "Look at your current outfit, do you think this is the outfit that a man should have?" β
"What, is there anything wrong? Is there any detail that is missing? Su Qingya looked down at the women's clothes on her body and said, "I'm wearing it according to my sister." β
"That's the crux of the matter," Su Qingwen shouted at the man who was dressed like herself with a slightly desperate attitude, "Why do you want to dress the same as your sister?" It's not the time to play the kind of tricks you played when you were a kid, and it's not the time to satisfy your transvestite, and now - your sister and I have more important things to do, you... Can you get me home? β
"The house is no longer safe," Su Qingya completely ignored what his sister said, and said nonchalantly, "Those investigators who are like bed bugs have surrounded the entire Panshan Yixuan, and it took me about nine illusions to escape." β
"You're not being followed, are you?" Su Qingwen looked around vigilantly, except for the sound of sewer drainage, there was no other abnormal sound.
"You're thinking too smart about those bed bugs, bugs are just bugs after all." Su Qingya pointed to an old tower in the distance and said, "This is the place you agreed to meet?" β
"Yes, you don't have to come along, I can handle it alone." Su Qingwen knocked on the door and found that the door was not locked, so she simply pushed the door in.
The dimly lit hallway was empty, without a glimmer of life. By the moonlight streaming in through the corner ceiling, they noticed that the light bulbs on the walls were gone, and the staircase was covered with a thick layer of dust, without any footprints on it, making one wonder if someone had actually been there. Walking on the creaky stairs, the high heels of the Su family siblings made a heavy noise on the old and decaying wooden boards.
In the top aisle, some artificial light pointed them in the right direction. Behind the half-opened door, security guard Lao Huang was leaning on an armchair that was about to fall apart and napping.
As they approached the room, Lao Huang was suddenly awakened from his deep sleep, and he slowly stood up, listening vigilantly to the footsteps of the two pairs of high heels, with an unpredictable expression on his face.
"You're late, Miss Su. Also, I was surprised to see you, Xiaoya. The security guard Lao Huang opened the door wide, pretending to be surprised and looked at Su Qingya and said.
"Come on, you've heard our footsteps for a long time, haven't you? Just stop acting with us. Su Qingya was very disgusted by the smell emanating from the house, pinched her nose and asked, "You killed someone?" β
"No," the security guard Lao Huang conjured up two clean chairs out of thin air and said, "Sit down, this place has been deserted for some years, and if you want to give you a whole better home, you have to prepare in advance." β
"It's the smell of rotting corpses, and if you didn't kill someone, then how could this smell come from this room?" Su Qingwen asked warily, "Don't think you can hide it from me easily. β
"Sometimes you don't always have to do it yourself to kill someone, you just ask me if I killed someone, and my answer is 'no', why don't you trust me?" The security guard Lao Huang stretched out his hand and asked, "Have you forgotten who played hide and seek with you when Master was alive?" β
"It's impossible to say that you have forgotten completely, but it is even more nonsense to say that you have been trusted because of this." Su Qingya said.
"Oh... I think your worries are unnecessary," said the security guard Lao Huang, "My mentor treats me like a new parent, how can I have the slightest ill heart towards his descendants?" β
Su Qingya didn't answer directly, he just walked back and forth in the room a few times. He took a deep breath and said, "Then I'll be straight - maybe you can explain your actions without flaws, maybe you can let my sister be biased against you, maybe you think your little trick can hide from my eyes?" I tell you, don't take it for granted! β
"It's that you're thinking too much!" The security guard Lao Huang shrugged his shoulders and said, "I know that when your father died, it was a very uncomfortable thing that I was not present. But can you give me the time to explain? Your sister can tell you the truth even more, and I was being held in Prison No. 66 at the time. If you think I might lie to you, you might as well check out the archives over there. I think with your technique, it should be easy to get the information of that year, right? β
"How did someone like you get caught?" Su Qingwen sat on a chair and asked, "I've always been concerned about this question." β
"Caught by an existence you can't imagine, that day was the darkest day of my life, and if it weren't for my usefulness, I probably wouldn't have lived to tell you this." The security guard Lao Huang suddenly became decadent, and then said solemnly: "But I must admit that the reason why I can survive now is indeed because I took refuge in him." β
"Shameless traitor!" Su Qingya kicked the chair in front of her, and the innocent chair scattered in the corner of the wall like a building block that had lost its fulcrum.
Seeing some of the Su family sisters and brothers who couldn't bear it, the security guard Lao Huang hurriedly added: "Don't worry, although my master has other plans, his purpose is the same as yours, which is why he ordered me to come to help you." Think about it, who alerted you in the first place, and who warned you not to go to that broken temple a long time ago? β
"Your warnings did work, but I did underestimate the 'pests.'" Su Qingwen clenched the fist in her hand and said, "I originally planned to do it once and for all, but it seems that I made a mistake." β
"I heard from my sister that the spy who has been hanging around our house looks very similar to you, are you biological brothers? Like me and my sister? Su Qingya asked.
"He's not my brother, and I don't have a brother." Security guard Lao Huang spat and said viciously. When the moonlight shone on half of his face, it looked like a skeleton.
"Alright, the small talk is over." Su Qingwen looked at the two men who entered the play impatiently and said, "Can you get us to the point?" β
