Chapter 179 Under the conversation in the hostess's room
"If Mr. Butler hadn't died, you wouldn't have chosen to tell us the truth, would you?"
"Maybe! I'm not sure myself, but I think if you ask, as long as Mr. Butler isn't there, I'll probably tell you about it, because I didn't want to hold it to myself for a long time. ”
"Oh, I understand now." Jockley leaned his back against the wall and said relaxedly.
Horror turned to him and asked, "I've said so much, shouldn't you tell me who you are?" Are you a police officer? ”
"No, I'm just a witness to a murder. At that time, I saw a man and a woman on the side of the corpse, the woman was covered in blood, and she was still holding a murder weapon in her hand, and the man was comforting her, I thought at first that the two of them had killed the victim, so I did not hesitate to call the police, but later after the woman was taken away by the police, I found that the man did not run away, but was still looking for something at the scene of the murder. ”
"And then?"
"Later, the three of us went to the police station, and the person who questioned us was Officer Xie, and I told him everything I saw, and I also told him about my suspicions, and I didn't expect that they would ask me to come here to help, let alone that there would be a series of terrorist murders here."
"Who the hell is the man and the woman next to the corpse?" Horror asked.
Jokley looked at her and shook his head and said, "I can't tell you this because it involves homicide and privacy, I'm sorry." ”
"It doesn't matter, the case that the police want to handle can't be inquired about casually, I understand this truth." Despite this, the terrifying expression still looked very depressed.
Qiao Keli sat up straight and comforted her: "Grandpa Liu asked me to protect you, don't worry, we are safe here now." ”
"Thank you."
Receiving the little girl's thanks, Qiao Keli opened his mouth and smiled, his dark face with prominent cheekbones was really flattering, but at this moment, looking at the little horror's eyes, she suddenly felt that it was not so ugly, and there was a little bit of cuteness, maybe it was because the horror had not been dependent on a man for a long time, this feeling of dependence can really turn decay into magic!
The two of them were talking together, and Horror didn't know how long they would have to wait in the hostess's room, and she didn't want to use her own brains anyway, and Qiao Keli said that he would definitely bring Horror back to Liuqiaopu, and Horror believed that this was true.
Gradually, the horror began to feel sleepy again, and she wanted to nest into Sister Wang's arms as usual, but as soon as her body habitually leaned over a little, she immediately realized that she couldn't do this, and then changed direction and leaned against the wall, the cold wall made the pain in the horror's calf suddenly magnify, and also made her a little more sober.
Chokley asked, "Are you sleepy again?" ”
"One thing, I guess you don't mind sleeping for a while!"
"Mind." Frightened was surprised by Jockley's unexpected answer, and the drowsiness seemed to evaporate from the little girl's mind for a moment, and she quickly sat up straight, looking curiously at Mr. Chokley, waiting for him to explain why he said these two words.
Jokley said: "Horror, don't get me wrong, it was Grandpa Liu who took care of me and said that when I was acting, I must not let Horror fall asleep, and I don't know why?" Anyway, what Grandpa Liu said must not be wrong, if you are really sleepy, let's talk more, do you have any favorite topics? ”
"Alright then," said Horror, "I can't really think of anything about my favorite topic, so let's talk about Mr. Butler and Mr. Cook!" ”
"Okay."
"They actually came to the treacherous house at about the same time, and the old master Anze was still alive at that time, and I heard the cook mother-in-law say......"
The voice in the narrow room grew quieter, Horror had never spoken so much to anyone, and it was as if she had opened the conversation gates all at once, wanting to say anything. Maybe it was the action that Liu Qiao Pu assigned to her just now that inspired the little girl's courage, or maybe it was Qiao Keli's clear eyes that made Horror feel safe, anyway, at this moment she didn't hesitate to say what she knew, the family affection with Mr. Butler and Mr. Cook, and the wishful love between Yu Heng.
——
The girl struggled to control herself from stepping into the mire of the dark forest, and she began to yearn for things she had never dared to aspire to before, such as the strong sunlight after dawn, the whitish light that shone directly on the earth, which only summer could have, but on this mountain, the girl could only feel winter, and she could only feel the weak sun.
She never knew where her biological parents came from, and she never thought she had a real home, this place was just a home imposed on her, and she didn't even like the names Treacherous House and Spiegel House. For there is no light in the house of mirrors, and there is darkness and terror in the house of treachery.
The middle-aged woman and the elderly housekeeper cherish her, and the girl is engraved in her heart, but this still can't change her impression of the treacherous house, perhaps, only by finding her biological parents, only by understanding the real life experience and everything in the past, can she continue to live in the future with peace of mind. There is also Shu Xue, who often appears in dreams, Shu Xue is like a mirror for girls, and she can see many of the same characteristics as herself from Shu Xue.
It is precisely because of the dream that the girl will begin to ask Shu Xue about it, although Mr. Butler has admitted that Shu Xue is indeed in the treacherous house, but the other answers, the girl has never really gotten. Whether Shu Xue looks the same as in her dream or not, she has never confirmed. For this reason, the girl is actually very depressed inside.
She didn't have any answers she wanted to seek, for more than ten years, the only person who accompanied her and could answer some questions for her was Ms. Wen, how much the girl hoped that Ms. Wen was her mother, but she knew that it was impossible. There is no resemblance between her and Ms. Wen's appearance at all!
When Wen Manman told the story of last night, the girl felt completely unbelievable, because Ms. Wen did not mention that she had two daughters at all, nor did she mention the relationship between her and Shu Xue, what happened in the past? This made the girl's curiosity grow for a long time in addition to being frightened.
How she longed to know the past, she couldn't tell, anyway, she just wanted to know, she wanted to know!
Sleepiness always hovered in her mind, the girl didn't want to fight, and she didn't want it to be controlled, so she maintained a half-asleep state and talked to the people around her, and the deep male voice seemed to be the best sobering agent, leaving a better impression in her heart for the first time than Yu Heng.
