In the past few days, it has been rainy in Haichao City, even the rain falling from the sky is mixed with the smell of the sea breeze, and it is extremely cold on the body, and there is an inexplicable chill.

Pedestrians on the street are becoming more and more scarce for this reason, and the already small shops have closed their doors, and only Tang Juyi walks alone on the streets of Xicheng District.

"During the Qingming Festival, it rains a lot, and pedestrians on the road want to break their souls...... Although it is not the Qingming season, and there are no pedestrians on the road, this rain is full of atmosphere. ”

Dressed in a gray-black windbreaker, Tang Juyi still put on a wide hat as usual to cover his face as much as possible. Although it is useless for those who have the intention to spy on him, Tang Juyi is still happy to do so, which may be the reason for some dark parts of his character.

The residence of the deceased Oriental "Liu" is in Xicheng District, and it is precisely because of the interference of the Phil family that the ruins have not been cleaned or rebuilt, but are still intact.

In view of Tang Juyi's special status, he also has a special pass from the Phil family, which allows him to cross the cordon of guards and go to the mansion that was most burned by a fire to find out.

Said to be a guard, in fact he was just a man over half a hundred years old, blind in one eye, with a few scars on his face, who lived in a hut next to the house, and whenever someone passed by, he would stare at each other with a gloomy gaze, which made people shudder.

Due to the death of "Liu" by self-immolation, the surrounding residents did not live here anymore, and even thought that this was an ominous place, and they all moved to other places, so if it was not for a special purpose, no one would happen to pass by here.

When Tang Juyi came to the hut, the man opened the small window next to the door, revealing half of his face, and didn't say anything, just knocked on the sign hanging outside with his finger "Idlers are not allowed to enter", and the warning was overflowing.

Tang Juyi was also direct, and also walked to the small window without saying a word, and handed over his pass. And the man looked carefully, looked up and observed Tang Juyi's face, and then let out an inexplicable sneer, and then exchanged the pass to Tang Juyi, closed the small window and stopped showing up.

Standing in Tang Juyi and waiting for a long time without reacting, he couldn't help but wonder:

"What do you mean? Does this mean I can go in? ”

At the same time, the small window opened again, and a knuckle-wide hand stretched out from it, and bowed to him impatiently, which probably meant "Get out of here, don't bother Lao Tzu".

Tang Juyi was speechless, but he didn't have the idea of talking to this man, so he put away the pass, and directly crossed the yellow cordon and walked into the mansion, which was almost in ruins.

Judging from the scale of the house and the remaining arrangement, the life of this "Liu" is quite moist. Although people are in a foreign country, the decoration style inside is biased towards the traditional oriental culture, which can be seen from the style and placement of the tables and chairs.

This familiar style also made Tang Juyi feel a lot more intimate - although this is a house that has died.

The house had two floors, but now most of the floor on the second floor had been burned down, and even the steps leading to the upper floors had been engulfed in flames, leaving only jet-black charcoal.

The walls of the house are all traces of being burned, and the furniture is lucky, and there are only one or two pieces left that are barely intact, and the rest are in ruins.

Tang Juyi walked along the wall next to the gate, stretched out his hand to caress the rough lines on the wall, and the expression on his face could not see the change in emotion.

"There are only a few rooms in the house, but there is a separate room for books, and it seems that he really cherishes them."

Tang Juyi came to the location of the previous study, and identified the remnants of the book cover and the ashes of the paper pages from the pile of ashes, although they were wet by the rain floating in from outside, they could still distinguish them.

"I don't like to drink, I eat simply, and my biggest hobby every day is to immerse myself in the study and linger on the words on the paper......"

Walking out of the kitchen ruins, Tang Juyi already had a vague understanding of this "Liu".

Looking up at the second floor, where the bedrooms used to be located, had now collapsed downstairs, piled up in the rubble and other wooden structures that had been charred.

"It's a pity that the body has been buried, leaving only this house......"

After closing his eyes for a long time, Tang Juyi, who wanted to resonate with his vision, sighed and reluctantly chose to give up.

His current ability is not yet mature, and he can't successfully perform spiritual vision without a corpse, so naturally he can't know what kind of thoughts "Liu" had before the fire prevention, and what kind of blow he experienced.

"Okay, let's see if there's anything interesting left behind by this fellow......"

Looking around, Tang Juyi could only see a black patch when he looked around, and it looked even more messy after being wet by the rain, and it was obviously difficult to find something out of it.

"You said you should find someone to guard it, why don't you get some shelter from the wind and rain in this place?"

After complaining about Adam Phil, Tang Juyi shook his head, still rummaging through this mess, trying not to destroy the original appearance of the surroundings.

It stands to reason that when the plot advances to this point, Tang Juyi should find some clues, such as a diary that was well preserved in the fire, or a precious collection that has not been picked up secretly after two months, or a mysterious message engraved on the wall that survived the fire......

But...... It's a pity that there is nothing.

Tang Juyi rummaged around, but finally found nothing. He had to admit that this place really didn't find what he needed.

"Why, such a mysterious character, such a strange way of dying, seems to be a backstory full of conspiracy, and in the end is an empty map with no clues? That's kind of unpleasant, right? ”

For the first time in this kind of "inevitably clues" place, Tang Juyi was also a little depressed, and he was still wondering if his thinking was wrong, but he heard footsteps behind him.

Tang Juyi reflexively reached for the pistol on his waist, and at the same time stood sideways and took a step, turning around to look at the source of the sound, but what he saw was the man in the hut before, the man who guarded the house.

Seeing Tang Juyi's movements, the man also blocked his hand in front of him, with a grim smile on his face:

"Hey man, take it easy!"

Tang Juyi's eyes narrowed:

"Well, I thought that only my smile in this book would be described as 'eerie'...... Then again, sir, is there something wrong with you tiptoeing up to me? ”

The man laughed a few times darkly, and made a non-standard salute to Tang Juyi:

"This gentleman has a name...... Adriman, it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Don Bujuyi. ”

Tang Juyi looked Adriman up and down, his hand still on his waist:

"Well, Mr. Adriman, what's the matter?"

Glancing at Tang Juyi's movements, Adriman's smile narrowed a little, and then moved away slightly:

"You don't have to be so nervous, I don't mean it...... I'm just doing a routine check to see if you've taken anything from here. ”

Tang Juyi nodded with an "oh", then stretched out his hand to the ruins on the side, and asked rhetorically:

"Do you think there's anything else worth taking with you? I don't think I look like a scavenger, and I don't have any ghost names like moon pickers. ”

Adriman shook his head with a smile:

"Maybe...... The girl from two months ago also visited here, maybe she missed something? ”
