Chapter 4: Silver Light

Zhang Youcheng stood at the door with his hands behind his back and an expressionless face, as if the smiling face just now was just Yang Ke's illusion, and Yang Ke noticed that the corners of his mouth seemed to be flashing with a hint of silver light, as if something reflective was sticking to his face.

However, Zhang Youcheng turned his head when he looked into the room, and when he turned back, the silver light was gone.

Yang Ke is a little strange, why has he been dazzled?

He saw that Zhang Youcheng was not welcome and had no intention of getting out of the way, so he took the initiative to say: "Teacher Zhang, this is a gift I bought for my sister-in-law, and I don't know if my sister-in-law will like it." ”

Yang Ke handed over the gift to ease the atmosphere, but Zhang Youcheng didn't take it, but turned over with his hands behind his back and said, "Come in, just put the gift on the table." ”

It seems that his anger has not subsided.

Having said that, how could Zhang Youcheng's expression be so calm?

Is he used to the smell?

"Teacher Zhang, the smell in your house is a bit serious, why don't I help you find out what the reason is?"

Yang Ke thought that Zhang Youcheng had not found the source of the smell in the previous cleaning, or that there was something wrong with the pipes in his house.

If he can help him solve this problem, the previous offense may be written off.

Zhang Youcheng said with a displeased face: "Smell? What smell? ”

"Uh, nothing."

Yang Ke was simply stunned.

Zhang Youcheng's personality is too strange, right?

He used to send messages to himself like a diary every day, why did he have such an attitude towards him in the blink of an eye because of a small mistake?

It feels like it's two extremes altogether.

Yang Ke followed Zhang Youcheng into the living room of the villa, and he noticed that only the living room in the villa had the lights on, and the lights were turned off in other places.

"Why didn't you see my sister-in-law?"

"It's not to welcome you, she's taking the kids to buy groceries."

At this time, Zhang Youcheng's voice became much softer, and at the same time, Yang Ke noticed that his expression also returned to smiling.

This is the Zhang Youcheng that Yang Ke is familiar with, and his expression like this means that he has forgiven Yang Ke.

It's just that the change between the front and back is inevitably too fast.

And the timing of the shift is also inexplicable.

Is it because he mentioned his sister-in-law?

"Why is Editor Yang standing? Sit down, you have something to drink, I'll get it for you. ”

"Oh, don't bother, I'll just drink plain water."

Seeing Zhang Youcheng so enthusiastic, Yang Ke was completely stunned.

"We're all old friends, what are you being polite to me, I recently bought some good Longjing, you wait, I'll make you a drink."

Zhang Youcheng pressed Yang Ke on the sofa, and then happily went to make tea.

It's just that when he stepped out of the light into the darkness, his figure changed from straight to a little rickety.

The contrast between Zhang Youcheng's attitude before and after made Yang Ke a little restless, and the strange thing was that when Zhang Youcheng walked into the darkness, he seemed to see that silver light again.

The sound of cups colliding sounded in the kitchen, and at the same time, Yang Ke faintly heard Zhang Youcheng seem to be talking to himself.

He quietly got up and walked to a closer place, and just as he was about to eavesdrop through the wall, Zhang Youcheng had already walked out.

"Editor Yang, what's wrong with you? Come on, come on, good Longjing, come and taste it. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang."

Yang Ke pretended to sit back on the sofa as if nothing had happened, he looked at the steaming tea in the cup, and suddenly found that there were also dots of silver light inside.

"it!"

"Huh? What, Editor Yang doesn't like tea? ”

Zhang Youcheng still smiled gently.

But at this time, in Yang Ke's eyes, it is so weird.

"Teacher Zhang, did you add anything to the tea when you made it just now?"

"What else can be added besides adding tea, this kind of Longjing tea has to be drunk the purest, if it is mixed with other things, it is a waste."

Zhang Youcheng is still laughing.

What the hell is he laughing at?

And what was the silver light he had been seeing?

If it's just once or twice, it might be dazzling, but this has been seen three times!

"Why don't you drink it? Drink. ”

"Well, it's too hot, wait for it to cool down before drinking."

"Good tea is to drink when it is hot, otherwise how can it be called tea, taste it, if you think it is good, I will send you some more."

Zhang Youcheng's urging made Yang Ke a little uneasy.

After coming in, Zhang Youcheng kept laughing, which made Yang Ke always feel like he was hiding something.

Yang Ke suddenly thought, what kind of flower petals look so like fingers?

Although he thought it was strange when he came in just now, he didn't think much about it, but now that he revisited all the details, he found that there were too many suspicious points.

The sound of swallowing saliva in the doorbell before entering the door, the strange laughter, the petals in the yard like fingers, the silver light that appears from time to time, and Zhang Youcheng's emotional change are all very suspicious.

No, much earlier.

Yang Ke stayed in the company for a day before, and the blood bottle pendant didn't have any reaction, and it was the same in the subway and on the street, why did he suddenly start shaking wildly at the door of Zhang Youcheng's house?

Although the meaning of the sound in his head at that time was unknown, thinking of the scene when the blood bottle necklace absorbed blood in last nightmare, it was very likely that the blood bottle necklace could react.

And Yang Ke remembered that there were also some silver particles in the blood absorbed by the blood bottle necklace.

That is, if the three silver lights he saw were not metal, but something like some kind of blood.

Now think about where each of these three silver rays appears.

For the first time, the corners of Zhang Youcheng's mouth were opened.

The second time, Zhang Youcheng's shoulder.

The third time, in the teacup......

Yang Ke thought as he subconsciously looked at the teacup in front of him and found that the silver light inside had not disappeared like the previous two times.

Blood, silver light...... Tea, water......

The scene of the human wolf eating flashed in front of Yang Ke's eyes, could it be that it was food?!

The silver light at the corner of his mouth was licked by Zhang Youcheng, but it made sense.

How to explain the silver light on the shoulder?

"Editor Yang? The tea is going to be cold. ”

Yang Ke unconsciously thought for a long time, and Zhang Youcheng was a little impatient to wait, so he reminded him.

"Oh, good."

Yang Ke brought the teacup to his mouth, and then saw Zhang Youcheng clenching his fists, and the hair on the back of his hand was also a little outrageous.

"He's looking forward to me drinking the tea."

He put the teacup to his mouth and paused for a while, then put it back on the coffee table and said, "Mr. Zhang, I suddenly thought of a horror theme, and I want you to help me check it to see if it is suitable for the manuscript." ”

The corners of Zhang Youcheng's mouth twitched slightly, and his smile began to become far-fetched: "What subject." ”

"Hmm~ cannibalism, for example, a world where dogs are intelligent creatures, but there are often cases of mutual cannibalism among them, and it should be very interesting to cut in from the perspective of dogs."

Zhang Youcheng's expression didn't change much, but he was silent for two seconds, and then said: "This kind of subject matter is easy to be banned." ”
