CHAPTER XXV
Early in the morning, Roland's house. Chen Mo sat on the rocking chair on the balcony of Roland's house, drinking milk tea, and turning over the fear (high) horror (test) suspense (number) doubt (learning) small (volume) in his hand (child). He deliberately wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses to look like an old intellectual. Chen Mo got up very early today, after all, he also slept early last night. After washing, he found that the ingredients at home had been exhausted, so he chose to go to Roland's house to eat. However, Roland didn't mean to get up early, so Chen Mo didn't bother him to sleep lazily on the weekend, and sat on the balcony alone, enjoying a quiet and comfortable time.
"Ha~" At about 7 o'clock, Roland walked out of the room with Hatcher. He had unkempt silver-white hair, his clothes hung loosely on his body, his eyes squinted, and his face was listless.
"Get up and cook." Chen Mo said in the direction of Roland.
"Eh, why are you here, little kid hurry up to class, don't make a mess here." Roland said slowly as he walked into the bathroom and began to wash.
"I said, big brother, are you sleeping stupid? Today weekend, I'm on vacation, you know? Chen Mo took a sip of milk tea and said angrily.
Roland rinsed his mouth and put the toothbrush in his mouth, "You woo woo, do you know woo, hurry up and ...... " Roland said something while brushing his teeth. Anyway, Chen Mo, who was sitting on the balcony, didn't understand a word, and heard Roland whining for a long time.
"I can't hear clearly, can you spit out something in your mouth."
"I said, can you save some snacks for my brother, do you know that I was busy yesterday, hurry up and stay cool." Roland spat out the foam from his mouth and said.
"Aren't you just a codeword, what are you busy with?" Chen Mo said dissatisfiedly.
"I took another job at a newspaper. Five people died yesterday, and I've been writing about this for the past two days, so I don't have time to cook for you, so you can go downstairs and buy me something to eat later. Roland didn't say anything polite to Chen Mo, he just told the matter, and put forward his unreasonable request by the way.
When Chen Mo heard that this was the case, he instantly became interested. Curiously asked, "What have you all heard, tell me quickly." ”
"It is said that the five people who died were very strange, and each of them was missing a little something. I don't know the specifics. Then our newspaper reporter went to interview some knowledgeable people, and he told us that the murder was not simple, and it was estimated that six people were to be killed, but it was not successful, and his plan failed, and only five were killed. ”
Chen Mo was stunned for a moment, and actually let the man say it all right. "Eh, can you tell me who that person you asked? Where does he live? ”
"Huh? is a fortune teller on the street, claiming to be a well-known figure in the industry. Anyway, it's a stall in the city at the Dream Bridge. I don't know what it's called, and I don't know where to live. Eh, why do you ask so much? Roland washed his face and asked.
"Ah, it's okay, curious." Chen Mo said, standing up, "What are you eating?" ”
"Anything, I'll eat whatever you eat, hurry up, I didn't eat when I finished it, I starved to death."
"I eat, do you eat it?" Chen Mo said viciously.
"That's okay, you take it back, I'll give you a hot pot."
“……”
After Chen Mo went out, he didn't really go downstairs to buy breakfast, but went home directly and ordered two takeaways. After ordering takeout, Chen Mo made a call to Gu Yuxuan.
"Yuxuan, do you have time in the afternoon?" Chen Mo asked straight to the point.
"No, I said what kind of wind blew your phone so early?" Gu Yuxuan joked.
"You are poor. Hurry up and give me a letter. ”
"Yes, yes, can Young Master Chen speak?"
"Okay, I'll see you at the old place at three o'clock in the afternoon."
"Okay, see you at the old place." Gu Yuxuan said on his lips, but he was thinking in his heart: What is he doing, he is mysterious.
After speaking, Chen Mo hung up the phone.
After a while, the doorbell of Chen Mo's house rang. Chen Mo thought that the takeout he ordered was coming, so he opened the door.
"Hello, Mr. Chen. Here is your shipment, please check. The man in the suit appeared in the doorway, still smiling professionally. Chen Mo was uncomfortable now just as long as he saw this smiling face. He didn't know where that feeling came from.
Chen Mo took the safe, opened the black phone, entered the password, and then took out a box.
The box is still black, but it's not very large, and it doesn't look like it can hold anything. Chen Mo didn't remember what props he had obtained yesterday.
Chen Mo returned the safe to the man in the suit, and when he handed it over, he asked casually: "What's your name?" ”
"My surname is Dong." As soon as these three words came out, the man in the suit suddenly changed his complexion, and the smile on his face disappeared, replaced by fear, incomprehensible fear. He didn't say a word, threw down the safe in his hand, turned around and ran.
This series of operations overwhelmed Chen Mo. He never thought that he just asked what the other party's name was, and the other party behaved so abnormally. However, Chen Mo felt that things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface, and the reason for the other party's fear was probably related to what he said. However, Chen Mo did not continue to investigate this matter. After all, I have too few clues, and if I investigate, I may still encounter danger, so there is no need to take this risk.
Chen Mo picked up the safe on the ground and put it in a corner of his room.
After the takeaway arrived, Chen Mo delivered one to Roland. When Chen Mo entered Roland's room, he found that he was sitting in front of his computer and was crazy about codewords. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is ten lines in one second.
"Great writer, I said that your hand speed is okay, and the unicorn arm is good." Chen Mo smiled and put the takeaway on Roland's table.
"Hmph, aren't you also a single dog, just half a pound and eight taels."
"Too lazy to talk nonsense, I'm leaving."
"If you go, you won't send it."
Chen Mo also knew that Roland was very busy, so he didn't bother much. When I got home, I closed the door, and while eating noodles, I fiddled with the small box that had just been delivered.
Chen Mo shook it, but there was no sound in it. To be honest, Chen Mo has maintained three points of jealousy about the props of crazy games. Who knows what that madman would do if he was in a good mood that day and sent himself a timed **. Chen Mo didn't dare to guarantee the clown man's character, so he risked his life. In short, when it comes to things of unknown origin, there is nothing wrong with being careful.
Since he couldn't hear the result just by listening, Chen Mo could only open it and take a look at this kind of props of unknown origin.
He first slowly lifted a corner of the box so that nothing happened, and then he had the courage to open the whole box.
Inside the box was a key, tightly wrapped in a sponge pad. The key is black all over, and it feels very cold to the touch, looking at this material, Chen Mo knows that it must not be ordinary.
He took out the key and played with it, but didn't see any clues. Later, I took out the sponge pad again, only to find that there was a note left under the mat: "Crazy Playing Home".
Chen Mo patted his head before he remembered that the scene of the crazy cosplay house that was newly unlocked yesterday must require a key to enter. It seems to be this black key that exudes a strange aura. "Eh, it's really old that people can't remember anything." Chen Mo sighed. In fact, I can't blame Chen Mo for not thinking about this matter, mainly because he was too tired yesterday, so he didn't take a closer look, so naturally he didn't think about it.
"Chen Mo, I may arrive a little late in the afternoon, don't go early." Just when Chen Mo sighed that his life had passed, his mobile phone vibrate, and when he opened his phone, he found that it was Gu Yuxuan who sent him a message.
"Received, if you dare to release my pigeon, it will die." Chen Mo replied.
