Chapter 63: Dinner

The news revealed by Sitong made Xu Tian feel stuffy in his chest, the person who didn't die was indeed likely to come here, but Xu Tian was also a little uncertain, if that person came, the scene Xu Tian would face would be very embarrassing.

It's seventeen:20 a.m., it's the winter solstice, and it's already completely dark in the evening, and the snowstorm is still falling outside.

"Hey!" Teacher Jin seemed to be lying on the stairs and shouting. "Do you want to come up? It's almost time to eat. ”

Xu Tian and Sitong's stomachs were already rumbling with hunger, and just as Xu Tian was hesitating to go upstairs, the long-awaited knock on the door finally rang.

Xu Tian walked quickly to the door, opened the door, and Mr. Xu walked in alone in a wheelchair with a cloak.

This time, Mr. Xu also wore an eye patch, his left eye was covered, and his beard grew a lot, making him look even more sloppy.

"Can you help? My hands were frozen and my wheelchair was out of power. Mr. Xu said.

Xu Tian pushed Mr. Xu into the room, looked outside a few times before closing the door, and did not see anyone else following.

"Did you come by yourself?" Xu Tian closed the door and asked.

"My wife sent me to the neighborhood and I didn't let her in." Mr. Xu said.

"Or are you thoughtful, so is your wife nearby? With such a big snowstorm, there's no place to hide nearby, right? Xu Tian asked.

"Have you forgotten that there is an old house in the woods? There she is. Mr. Xu said.

"The old house is very far away from here, can you rest assured that your wife is alone over there?" Xu Tian asked.

"There's nothing to worry about, she's not the only one in the old house, but then again, am I going to climb the stairs over there?" Mr. Xu pointed to the staircase and said.

"Your legs are not ...... Isn't it good? Xu Tian said.

"I can just stand up and walk a few steps, and it's not a problem to squat down and fix a wheelchair, but it's very difficult to walk a long way, like up this staircase." Mr. Xu said.

"I can help you up." Xu Tian said.

"No, if it's convenient for you, go up there and get me some food, preferably some juice, and bring down the food for the two of you by the way!" The three of us ate in the lobby on the first floor. Mr. Xu said.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps walking down, listening to the sound of walking very slowly, this force to go downstairs, Xu Tian had already judged who it was.

Kang Yuliang walked down with a large dinner plate, on which were placed seven dishes, a pot of soup, as well as juice, red wine, and three wine glasses.

"You don't need to go up, the person surnamed Jin has already told me to send it down to you." Kang Yuliang said.

With that, Kang Yuliang walked to the door, took out a long chain lock from the satchel on his waist, wrapped the lock around the doorknob and locked it.

Xu Tian saw all this in his eyes, which indicated that no one should come in next, Xu Tian couldn't help but be suspicious of Mr. Xu who came in last, and analyzed from Mr. Xu's words, his wife should be with other people, Mr. Xu felt that Mrs. Xu was safe, so the person who was with Mrs. Xu should be the police, so Lao Chen might also be in that old house.

The secrets in the old house will definitely be discovered by the police, and if the police search along the secrets inside the old house, they will definitely help Xu Tian.

After Kang Yuliang locked the door, he walked to the window again and began to make sure that the windows were not locked, and after confirming all the windows, Kang Yuliang walked up the stairs.

"You remember to go upstairs before midnight, after midnight the first floor will be cut off." Kang Yuliang said.

"Are all the upstairs accommodations arranged?" Xu Tian asked.

"All the women live in comfortable rooms, and the men live in concrete rooms." Kang Yuliang said that, and went upstairs.

Xu Tian was still very satisfied with this arrangement, but now none of the women upstairs were easy to mess with, and as for the question of accommodation, Xu Tian could almost predict who was living in the same room with whom.

Now Xu Tian can only pin his hopes on Teacher Jin, the situation upstairs is only known best to Teacher Jin, about the reason why everyone came here, he will definitely know very clearly after dinner, but what Xu Tian can't understand is that nothing strange has happened until now, which seems very unreasonable to Xu Tian.

"Don't keep hoping that something will happen, nothing will happen tonight, just help me upstairs and sleep in peace." Mr. Xu said.

"You seem to know a lot about this place, have you been here before?" Xu Tian asked.

"I haven't been here, but I know there's a mall being built here, and I've seen the drawings, so I'm familiar with the interior." Mr. Xu said.

"So why are you here?" Xu Tian asked.

"I'm just like you, and I came here by accident." Mr. Xu said.

"Hey, hey! You lied and didn't take it seriously, and just now you said that your wife sent you here. Xu Tian said.

"Really? That's what my wife sent me, it doesn't matter, the most important thing now is that we've been locked here, you saw that man locking the door just now, why didn't you stop him? Mr. Xu ruffled his hair and asked Xu Tian.

"I ......" Xu Tian didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Usually in this case, it is a sign of cowardice if you don't come forward to stop it, but I don't think that's what you think in your heart, you are not a cowardly person, and your girlfriend is by your side, it is even more unlikely that you will behave cowardly in front of your girlfriend, so there is only one statement, you are waiting for an accident here, am I right?" Mr. Xu said.

"What do you mean?" Xu Tian asked.

"It means...... You are very eager for an accident here, that is, a murder, and you did not intervene to stop the person when you saw the door locked, but calmly watched him lock the door the whole time, so I conclude that you must have longed for a murder to happen in this building, so you did not come forward to stop the person from locking the door. Mr. Xu said.

"What do you mean...... Is my heart very dark? Xu Tian asked.

"Then you say it yourself, if the reason you give me can convince me, I will believe you." Mr. Xu said.

"You're right, I do long for an accident here, because that's the only way to get close to the ruling Tai Sui." Xu Tian said.

"Is the ruling year too old? What a ridiculous title, how much do you know about the ruling year Tai Sui? Mr. Xu asked.

"There is a very provocative tone in your words, just tell me what you want to say, don't beat around the bush." Xu Tian said.
