This black letter looks a little familiar.

Because, Mr. Lan hung a metal mailbox outside the Institute of Unknown Events, and several such letters had appeared in it.

It's just that the text in it is a real "ghost drawing", and no one can understand it.

Sang Xiaoge's hand trembled a little, but she still took out the letter.

This is a method that was popular many years ago, where a letter is written on a piece of paper, then folded in a special way, and finally only needs to be dotted with a little glue on a point, or sealed with fire paint, and the back of the letter becomes an envelope.

There is no recipient information on the envelope, and there is no sender information, just a black envelope.

When I opened the envelope, the other side was still black paper, and sure enough, there were various incomprehensible symbols in gold. At least, neither Sang Xiaoge nor Yuli had ever seen such words.

"Lawyer Yao, do you know the words on it?"

Sang Xiaoge took the letter and showed it to Lawyer Yao.

"I've never seen anything like it." Lawyer Yao shook his head, but he didn't seem surprised by all this. He walked to the side, removed the book from a chair, then sat down himself, put his cane across his knees, looked at Sang Xiaoge with a smile, and said:

"If you don't understand, you can study it slowly. Find here, and today's mission is complete. If I'm right, some of your father's old acquaintances will find it here in the future. Oh, I forgot to mention, there's one more point in your father's commission. ”

"What is it?" Sang Xiaoge saw Lawyer Yao stop and hurriedly asked.

"That is, when you inherit this property from him, I will stay and help you take care of it. Among them, dealing with those who are about to come over, his old acquaintances. ”

Sang Xiaoge was standing there, with a large leather swivel chair behind him.

She could tell from the bits and pieces here that her father should have lived in this basement for at least several years. She sat in her chair and felt as if she had been in his arms as a child.

"Lawyer Yao, let's go around and have a look together, and let her stay here by herself for a while."

Yuli could see in Sang Xiaoge's demeanor that maybe she should be given some space to be alone at this time.

Lawyer Yao nodded, got up from his chair with some difficulty, and staggered towards the stairs. Yuri hurriedly followed and supported him.

Soon, the room fell silent.

Sang Xiaoge looked at Mr. Lan who was wandering around and shouted, "Hey! Big Colored Cat! Come and help me translate this letter! ”

Mr. Lan replied as he walked over:

"It's a way to convey a message from the underworld, and it can't be translated."

"Fart! You've received such a letter yourself, and I've seen you read it! Sang Xiaoge said angrily.

Mr. Lan first jumped from the ground to Sang Xiaoge's knees, then turned around and jumped on the writing desk again, pulled the letter with a melon seed and said:

"Words can convey a very narrow message. You know, there are many things that cannot be accurately expressed in words. This is much stronger in the underworld. After all, no matter how talented a person is, he will only live for a few decades. In such a short period of time, it is necessary to understand the world, to learn the known information of the past, and to eat, drink, sleep, and raise children...... The underworld, on the other hand, begins with the peak state that one can reach. ”

"What are you talking all this nonsense for? I wonder now, since he sent me such a letter, he must have wanted me to understand it, right? Sang Xiaoge's mood was a little irritable.

"Well, I'll be brief—it's indeed a letter. The letter was given to you by your father, so no one else could understand it. ”

"But I don't understand it either!" Sang Xiaoge wrinkled his nose and said.

"You just have to look at the symbols on it and try to imprint them in your head. Subsequently, the message represented by these symbols will appear in the depths of your soul...... Well, say something you can understand, it's in your memory. ”

Sang Xiaoge struggled to understand Mr. Lan's words, tilted his head and said, "You said that most of your memories have been lost, so you are using this way to gain lost memories?" ”

Mr. Lan licked his paw and said, "That's pretty much what it means." ”

Sang Xiaoge let out a heavy breath, then closed his eyes, and was silent for a full minute before opening them again, looking at Mr. Lan, his voice became soft:

"The letter came from Hades, that is, he is dead, right?"

"Humans have invented a lot of adjectives to describe people as dead. For example, 'left this world', 'went to another world', and 'ascended to heaven'...... In short, they are avoiding a more accurate statement, which is that 'the flesh is dead'. But there's a big difference. ”

Mr. Lan stretched out his front paw and helped his glasses, which was quite a bit of a nerdy cat:

"Now you're not the same as you used to be. You have seen the existence of souls with your own eyes, and you have seen life from the underworld. So, from our current perspective, 'death' means 'the destruction of body and soul'. Although I know very little about your father, judging from this underground base and this letter, this guy must be a great person, a big man. In terms of his ability, I answer you, he must have gone to Hades, but he is not necessarily 'dead,' and he may not even be able to come back when." ”

"When he comes back, I can't spare him!"

Sang Xiaoge said through gritted teeth.

……

In the underworld, in the valley leading to the foot of the snow, a tall figure wearing a wide black cloak suddenly felt a chill emanating from his back. He looked back with some surprise, and the road was foggy and snowy, and there was no trace of it.

Sang Xiaoge found a backpack in the underground base. She put a notebook and two books that Mr. Lan had picked out for her, as well as the letter in her backpack, and walked out with the cat in her arms.

It was already dark outside, and the weather was surprisingly good today, with a small crescent hanging on the horizon, and the stars were sparse but bright. The Spring Festival will be in a few days, and I can see fireworks in the night from afar.

"The beautiful scenery of a good day is a day, and the courtyard is happy."

The cat in his arms jumped off the ground, stared blankly at the night sky, and uttered these two sentences.

Sang Xiaoge glanced at it with some surprise: "Didn't I say that you lost most of your memories?" How is it useless to remember so much? ”

"Ahh

Mr. Lan suddenly let out an exclamation: "Do you say that it is possible, but in fact I am your father, and I will do everything possible to come back from the underworld to find you?" It's just that I lost my memory......"

Sang Xiaoge kicked it in the fat ass and shouted angrily:

"I'm your mother!"

"What about arguing with a cat?"

Yu Li walked out from the back of the opposite building, looked at this person and asked.

"Meow~"

Mr. Lan let out a snort and ran to Yuli, waiting for the other party to pick it up, turned his head and stuck out his tongue at Sang Xiaoge.

"Where's Lawyer Yao?" Sang Xiaoge asked.

"He told us to go back first, and I heard him call someone over, as if he wanted to stay here." Yu Li put Mr. Lan on her shoulder, reached out and grabbed Sang Xiaoge's arm and walked out together: "Alas Xiaoge, I can't see that you are still a rich daughter." That lawyer Yao's attitude towards you on the phone is the same as in the TV series. ”

"What attitude is the same as in a TV series?" Sang Xiaoge was inexplicable.

Yu Li stretched out her hand and clenched her fists, her thumb and little finger sticking out, making a gesture of making a phone call, imitating Lawyer Yao's tone: "Hey! Miss found it. You bring a few people over and clean up! ”

"Miss, can we go back now? I am hungry. You Li said with a smile, and then, she and Sang Xiaoge stood at the same time, looked at each other, and asked in unison:

"Where is Xiao Dezi?"

……

"I'm here."

Xiao Dezi walked out of the building with a pale face.

"It seems that as soon as I entered this courtyard, I didn't see you again. What happened to you? Lost in the face? Yu Li looked at the little fat man who was obviously suspicious in surprise and asked.

"This building...... This building, I am familiar with. Xiao Dezi said with some hesitation: "You may not believe it when you say it......"

"Hey! I believe what I've seen with you lately! Don't grind, what's wrong? Say it! Yuri urged him.

"For more than a year, I have often had the same dream that I was trapped in a building and couldn't get out. But when I woke up, I forgot what was in my dream. You can only remember it if you dream again. As soon as I entered this courtyard today, I felt familiar, but when I entered this building, I immediately remembered it! This is the building I dreamed of for the past year! ”

Xiao Dezi's expression was indescribably weird.

Sang Xiaoge and You Li looked at each other, according to what Xiao Dezi said, it was indeed weird.

"Let's go back first, I think it's cold, don't catch any more colds." Yuli grabbed Sang Xiaoge's arm vigorously, quickened her pace, and walked out of the building to the courtyard in front. Wang Fuyi's car was parked at the gate, and lawyer Yao was standing at the door with his back to the building.

"Lawyer Yao, let's go back first. Otherwise, you will go back with us first, have a meal, and I will arrange a hotel for you to stay for one night, and then come back tomorrow to clean up? Yuri said as she opened the car door and sat inside.

Lawyer Yao turned his head, looked at Sang Xiaoge who was standing beside her, and said loudly, "No need, I brought a few people to Rubik's Cube City, and they will arrive soon." ”

Then, lowering his voice a little, he said:

"Miss, I know you must have a lot of questions in your heart, don't worry, you go back and rest, if you have any questions, you can come and ask me at any time in the future - although I don't know many things very well, but I will know everything I know. Mr. Sang and I agreed that I would take care of this place. ”

Sang Xiaoge nodded and said, "Then please, I'll come back tomorrow." ”

After speaking, she pulled Xiao Dezi into the car together.

Yuri reached out of the window and waved, then kicked the accelerator and the car drove off.

The location of this "Nai He Tian Road" is very remote, and after driving for a few minutes, I got on the main road before there were other vehicles. Yuli opened the navigation, looked at the route, and then asked Sang Xiaoge in a joking tone:

"Miss, where are you going to invite me to dinner? Find a family outside, or go back to the vicinity of Xinling Bay to eat? ”

Sang Xiaoge's eyes, through the car window, looked at the rearview mirror, and said in a deep voice:

"Don't go back to Xinling Bay first, you go around the intersection in front of you, how do I think, the car behind is following us?"
