251. The House of Regulus in Egypt (Part II)
"But she's dead, and the ghost was yours, and I can't think of anything when you ask me nowβdon't forget how many years ago it was." Tie Yirou shook her head lightly.
Xuanyuan Lan touched her chin and said, "Could it be that this matter is going to fall on Xiao Sui?" β
"Me?!" They wouldn't want her to deal with ghosts again, would they?!
"What can Spike do?" Tie Yirou said coldly, "If you just want to find out the ghost of your Xuanyuan family and let Xiao Sui interrogate, then you can do it yourself." β
Woo, Yirou said it so well, so touched~~
"It's a good shortcut, but we're not sure they'll tell the truth." Xuanyuan Lan thought about it again and said, "Then there is only one other way." That method is much more suitable for you than Spikelet. β
Tie Yirou smiled lightly and said, "Even if I am not sure, I am not sure that I will be able to complete it, after all, I have not succeeded in finding it before." β
What kind of dumb riddle are they playing? "Yirou, if I can help......" In fact, she really doesn't want to wade into this troubled water, after all, it's not good to meet ghosts, but if you have the ability to stand by and watch, it is really unjustifiable in the morality of friends.
Tie Yirou looked at her and laughed, "Look at your expression, don't force yourself to say something if you don't want to help." What if I really want your help? β
She flattened her mouth and said, "That's no way, if I can help, I'll help." If you can't do it, then it's better to refuse. β
"You really don't embarrass yourself." Tie Yirou covered her mouth and chuckled.
Qin Feng said on the side: "Xiaosui, you are too casual, right?" If you can help, you can help, if you can't help, you won't help, so aren't you very relaxed? It's so unrighteous, isn't it?! β
"Can't I help, do I have to add to the chaos?" This accusation is really inexplicable.
"Alright." Tie Yirou reached out and grabbed her arm, lowered her eyelids and said, "Now it's not a question of whether you have the ability to help, but ...... I don't want you to help at all. β
She looked at Tie Yirou and then at Xuanyuan Lan, why did the expressions of these two people suddenly become solemn? It seems that what they are going to do is not simple at all. But in the end, they didn't say what they were going to do, and only they knew what to do next.
It doesn't matter, she is also happy to be idle~
*********
The color of the setting sun dyed the columned courtyard a dark golden yellow, and perhaps the valley outside also became this gorgeous and heavy hue. It's just that the color of this afterglow always makes her feel that something bad is going to happen.
"Hey." Shi Xiao sat down beside her, he had already taken off the crumpled white cloth robe, and inside was a simple casual T-shirt, "Egypt is good, right?" β
"Huh? Well. She nodded.
"I've heard that you can see things that ordinary people can't see, and you can hear sounds that ordinary people can't." Shi Xiao looked at her and said.
"Usually such people are considered to be mentally abnormal." She said disapprovingly.
Shi Xiao asked curiously, "What does that feel like?" β
"I even think I'm a nervous person." She tugged at the corners of her mouth, not thinking that this was anything to celebrate.
Shi Xiao smiled, "But this is Egypt, and it's near the Valley of the Kings, you have to be careful." β
"Beware of ghosts?" It's not funny. "Why did you remind me of this all of a sudden?"
"Didn't I say that? This is the Valley of the Kings of Thebes, and there are many mysterious events in ancient Egypt that even modern science cannot explain. Shi Xiao looked up at the sky, "The female pharaoh Hartsht Shepp is your target this time, right?" β
"I don't know." She didn't even have the will to know.
"Your curiosity is weak." Shi Xiao shook his head, "Qin Feng, Xuanyuan Lan, and the team leader all seem to look at you differently, but from this point of view, you are just an ordinary person who can't be found if you throw it into the pile." β
"I'm an ordinary person." She shrugged, "Do you see that I have three heads and six arms?" Aside from what you just said about my abnormal brain, I'm an ordinary person. β
Shi Xiao laughed, "You are quite good at teasing yourself." But maybe it's because of this personality that you're still an ordinary person after a lot of things have happened. β
What does this mean? She stared at Shi Xiao, who was talking happily to herself, inexplicably, but Shi Xiao got up and patted her on the head, saying, "There is nothing wrong with ordinary people, I also hope that I am just an ordinary person." β
Shi Xiao's words seemed to have some deep meaning, but he didn't explain, he waved his hand with his back to her and went back to the research room.
The director of this research institute actually said that he hoped that he was an ordinary person, did he think that he was not an ordinary person? Well, the "extraordinary people" of the Xuanyuan family are the majority, and she has always believed that "abnormality" is the characteristic of that family.
The days in Egypt in March were warm, but the coolness quickly swept in as the sun went down, and she felt a little cold after spending a while in the columned courtyard. Since there is a possibility of hitting a ghost, she still obediently goes back to the room and stays outside, so as to reduce the chance of hitting a ghost, haha.
"Huh? Are you a guest of the director? A slender woman walked in through the doorway. The woman looked to be in her thirties, with neat short hair, honey-colored skin, and was supposed to be Egyptian.
Wondered why she thought this woman seemed a little familiar...... Well? How could this woman speak Chinese with her? Shouldn't you ask questions in Chinese or English? Could it be that her face is engraved with "I am Chinese, but I don't speak English"? "Hello hello, excuse me." She quickly stood up and said politely.
"I work here too, so just call me Nefer." The woman smiled kindly.
"My name is Shi Sui, and I'm glad to come to visit you." She introduced herself as she scrutinized the person in front of her. This woman has a kind of temperament that is not angry but mighty, and the appearance of raising her eyebrows and smiling has a calm and confident, although it is not the meticulously carved face of Glacier Pity, but people can't help but want to look up. Wouldn't this Nefil also be some high-ranking cadre of the Xuanyuan family, just like Joseph, the lord of the French Castle Hotel, who was sent here to work, right?
"Welcome." Nefer smiled cheerfully, "Have you visited other places?" If you don't have time, I can take you to the Valley of the Kings. β
Wow, this guy is so welcoming. "Okay, then I'll thank you first."
At this time, Tie Yirou, who had gone out at some point, also came back from outside, and when she saw Nefer, a polite smile appeared on her face that she usually treats cafΓ© guests, and she muttered a string of foreign languages that she didn't understand, and Nefer also replied. They're greeting each other, right?
After a conversation she didn't understand at all, Nefer went back to the research room, leaving with a mysterious smile on her face, but because she was facing away from Tie Yirou, that expression was only visible to her. She couldn't tell why, but she was a little concerned about the meaning behind that smile.
"Spike, what are you talking about?" Tie Yirou waited for Nefer to leave before asking.
"I didn't talk about anything, she said that if Shi Xiao was not free, she could take me to sightseeing, and I would just thank her." It's really strange that Yirou would care about such a thing.
"Yes......" Tie Yirou said thoughtfully, "Well, it's fine. β
"What can happen with a few words of greeting a researcher?" She said funny, "Could it be that she is also from the Xuanyuan family?" "After all, for Tie Yirou, the members of the Xuanyuan family are all poisonous snakes and beasts, and they must be as far away as possible.
Tie Yirou smiled and said, "That's not it. In short, I hope you don't draw attention to them. β
"They"? Who is Tie Yirou talking about?
