Chapter 20: Outside the Window

When he heard the whistling wind in his ears as he fell, Ning Lu suddenly came back to his senses.

Hey, why did I jump off the building...... Am I going to die again?

Why do I use the word "again".

Oh yes, I'm already dead, it's impossible to die again.

By the time she reacted to the incident, she had already fallen into the flower bed of the hospital.

The large clump of chrysanthemums in the flower bed made a small crumbling sound, and a few petals fell with the impact of her fall.

The evening breeze carried a few dry fallen leaves through her body, rolled on the ground a few times, and finally hit the corner of the wall, making a crunch and breaking into several pieces.

Ning Lu stood in the flower bed and was stunned for a while.

No one could see her.

The ambulance had just screamed and rushed out of the hospital gates.

The family members of patients who come and go basically have a stinky face and hurriedly walk by with their heads down. Who has not had the leisure to stop to say hello or smile to a stranger or something, and of course no one will notice the little thing that the flowers in the flower bed are unnaturally falling around.

"Everybody's busy, it's just me ......," she said to herself, then paused before suddenly saying, "Oh, by the way, I seem to have something to do." ”

She lowered her head again, stared at the transparent thread that stretched out of her wrist, and smiled as if relieved.

The gloom on the girl's face was swept away with this shallow smile. Then she jumped off the flower bed and ran to the other end of the line.

Because he is dead, he naturally doesn't have to worry about traffic laws and traffic lights. Cars passed through her body, sending a whirlwind through her hair.

She ran straight to the point, never feeling tired, and finally stopped at the gate of a villa.

Ning Lu looked up at the second floor of the villa.

The thin thread on his wrist was coming out of that window.

There was a light-colored curtain hanging from that window, and the faint light peeked through the gap in the curtain. Fell on the lawn in the yard.

Behind the curtains, there were one or two figures standing and sitting.

The standing figure crossed its arms and lowered its head as if listening to something, and after a while turned to observe the bookshelf beside him for a moment, pulled out a book, and handed it to the man sitting in the chair.

The seated man flipped through the book in his hand a few times, tapped the table with his hand, and looked up at the other person to say something. He looked very excited.

Just as Ning Lu was looking at the two people, guessing their identities and the content of their conversation, she suddenly heard a low male voice behind her.

"Little girl, are you also here to find someone to help?"

Ning Lu was startled by the sudden voice, and she jerked her head back to look in the direction from which the voice came from behind her.

A middle-aged man was standing a few steps behind her, looking at him curiously.

The dim streetlight fell to the ground through the man's body.

There is no shadow.

Ning Lu took a step back suddenly, and subconsciously wanted to shout "ghost".

Her mouth was halfway open when she remembered that she seemed to be his kind now. I had to silently shut my mouth.

"Stay away from their door, don't get too close." The man said and took a few steps closer to Ning Lu and stretched out a hand to her, "There is something at the door of their house, you can't get in." ”

Ning Lu avoided the man's outstretched hand and cautiously moved a few steps towards the door.

The man's body was pitch black, and the wound on his abdomen was bloody and blurred, and it looked very oozing.

"Don't be afraid, little girl. I look horrible now, but I wasn't a bad person when I was alive! The man grinned. Showing his bloodstained teeth, "I just drank too much and had a fight with someone on the street, but that person took out a knife out of nowhere and stabbed me, so it became like this, and then that person was not sentenced to death, it was simply unreasonable...... Ah, right. Little girl, how did you die? ”

Ning Lu cautiously ducked away, stared at the man defensively, and whispered: "I was walking alone at night, and I met a perverted ......"

"And then?" When the man heard this, he immediately asked anxiously. There was a glint of excitement in his eyes.

"And so it will be...... I forgot. Ning Lu said depressedly, "It's just that when I saw a man, he looked at me, and I fainted." When I woke up again, I saw my own corpse. Actually, I died quite miserably, and I didn't even have a whole corpse. ”

When the man heard half of it, he let out a boring "cut" and lowered his head and stopped talking.

Ning Lu glanced up at the lighted room above the villa again.

The seated man was no longer in the room, and another figure flickered past the window, and then the lights in the room quickly dimmed.

"Uncle......" Ning Lu stared at the dark room and asked in a low voice, "What are you waiting for here, who lives in this house?" ”

"You don't know who lives here?" The man looked at Ning Lu incredulously, raised his voice in surprise, and shouted at her: "You don't know who lives here, so what are you doing here?" ”

"I didn't know what I was going to do, so I came here before I knew it." Ning Lu looked at the man aggrievedly, sniffed, and looked frightened, "Don't be fierce, I really don't know who lives here." ”

When the man saw her like this, he immediately put away his excited expression.

"There's a person here who can help us get revenge, not just me, but a lot of guys waiting for that person to come out and help." The man simply explained to Ning Lu, and said angrily: "But he doesn't go out at all, and he doesn't look at us when he goes out, so he doesn't have any sympathy at all." ”

"Uh......" Ning Lu lowered her head and thought for a while, then raised her head and asked suspiciously: "He can help you avenge you, so you are waiting for him here, I understand this...... But why should he avenge you? ”

"Because I died unjustly!" The man replied without thinking, and the tone of his voice seemed so reasonable.

After seeing Ning Lu's still puzzled eyes, he waved his hand at her impatiently. Motioned for her to get away.

"Of course you little girl don't understand, you can't even die to understand, how can you understand how important revenge is to us."

Of course I know that revenge is important.

Now let me see the pervert who killed me, I also want to break him into thousands of pieces, so that he will die an ugly death than me.

But why should the person who can help you avenge you for no reason? He owes you nothing.

He doesn't know who you are, isn't it normal for him not to help you?

What the hell are you angry about?

Ning Lu complained in her heart for a while, and turned her head depressedly. Staring at a small piece of grass under his feet, he began to be in a daze.

The man pushed Ning Lu aside, and he muttered angrily for a while, "Young people now" and other complaints.

After a while, he didn't hear Ning Lu's rebuttal, maybe he was bored again, or he wanted to educate the girls around him to be "people" again, so he shouted at Ning Lu again: "Hey, that little girl over there, come here." ”

Ning Lu glanced up at him, but not only did he not pass. Instead, they moved away from him.

At this moment, the gate next to them slowly opened, and an off-road vehicle drove out of the yard with bright white headlights.

"Hey...... The ...... during the day" Ning Lu looked at the driver in the car in surprise, thought hard for a while, organized the language, glanced at the man on the other side vigilantly, and whispered: "The handsome guy who peeled apples in the hospital during the day......"

The buggy quickly disappeared from the sight of the two ghosts. The iron door was closed again. Only two ghosts stood at the doorway on the empty path, looking at the villa in the courtyard with complicated expressions.

The man covered the wound on his stomach. With an angry face, he snorted "phew" in the direction of the off-road vehicle and scolded loudly: "What's so great about being rich, what kind of force is pretending, the lights are turned on so brightly, do you know if you are blind!" ”

You're all dead, who cares if you're blind or not!

Ning Lu turned a deaf ear to the scolding of the "people" around her. She stared intently at the villa in the courtyard, and her eyes lit up little by little.

The handsome guy who "peeled the apple" went out from here.

That is, the people who live here are......

She glared excitedly, and walked step by step towards the closed iron door.

"Oops, that little girl!" The man stopped cursing. shouted at Ning Lu's back: "I told you, there is something on the door of this house, you can't get in, why can't you understand it!" ”

Ning Lu slowly stretched out her hand and touched the carving on the iron door.

"Don't touch it, you'll ...... if you touch it," the man's babbling shout stopped abruptly.

He opened his mouth wide and watched in amazement as Ning Lu's body passed through the iron gate and walked step by step onto the lawn in the courtyard.

"No, could it have passed before I knew it?" The man asked as if talking to himself, and reached out to touch the iron door in the same way as Ning Lu.

A small electric current sounded in the air.

He jerked his hand back like an electric shock, lowered his head, and glanced at his already illusory arm.

The entire hand below the arm was gone.

"It's still there!" He stared thoughtfully at his empty arm, then raised his head to look at Ning Lu's back in the courtyard, and frowned in confusion, "This little girl, what's the matter!" ”

Ning Lu was already lying on the floor-to-ceiling window on the first floor of the villa, pulling her neck and looking into the room.

Xia Beifeng in the room was leaning on the sofa, flipping through a book.

He was dressed in a cotton pajamas, his injured leg resting on the coffee table, his pants pulled up to his knees, revealing a thick layer of bandages on his calves.

He held the book with the cover in one hand, turning it slowly, and holding a teacup in the other hand, taking a sip of tea from time to time, looking leisurely and comfortable.

"Hey, I'll just say, it's him!" Ning Lu leaned on the glass window, stared hard at the furnishings in the room for a while, gasped suddenly, took a step back, covered his chest, and showed a pompous expression that he was seriously injured and died soon.

"Damn, their family is so rich!"

Xia Beifeng squinted one eye. Glancing out of the corner of his eye, he saw Ning Lu's lively figure, and immediately focused his eyes on the pages of the book, pretending not to find anything.

At the same time, a huge question mark also appeared in his heart.

How did this girl get in?

He stared at a single word on the page, but the thoughts in his head flew 108,000 miles away.

He didn't die from Ning Lu. Maybe it's still a living soul, so it's not afraid of the ordinary reason of the spell on the big wall, and I always thought that this girl might be some kind of god who went down to earth to reincarnate and practice, and she could shake the mysterious development of the Three Realms by stomping her feet. I went through all sorts of assumptions in my head, and finally came to a conclusion that I thought was the most probable.

Ye Baiyu, the thing you painted on the wall of my house is probably expired.

Ning Lu in the courtyard naturally didn't know about the mess in Xia Beifeng's mind. After recovering from the shock of the fact that "the uncle who stayed in the same room with me for two nights is actually a local tyrant who hides deeply", she leaned closer to the window again and carefully observed Xia Beifeng who was reading for the first time.

"I've been looking at it for a long time, this uncle seems to be quite handsome!" Ning Lu stared at Xia Beifeng's face. whispered to himself: "It's just a pity that I'm not good at this, so I can only forget it." But if it's his brother, I'd think about it. ”

My little god, don't think about it, it's not your turn.

And ah, little sister, you'll know when you grow up, it's better to be older than men.

And there are those in this world who look quite young. Old monsters that are actually hundreds of years old exist.

Although you don't have a chance to grow up again.

Xia Beifeng lowered his head and took a sip of the tea in the cup, and continued to calmly pretend that he hadn't heard anything.

Well. The water is cold, why hasn't anyone come back yet!

As he was thinking this, he heard the sound of a car outside the window.

Ning Lu also heard this voice. She looked back and saw two blinding car lights behind her slowly approaching the yard.

"Uncle, your brother who went to see the Comic Con is back."

Shen Luotian threw the key and walked into his door.

As soon as he opened the door, he could smell the smell of meat in the air. It aroused his involuntary appetite.

"Brother, what did you do?" He raised his head and took a breath, and said in surprise: "You have been like this all the time, and you are not too tired to stew pork ribs!" ”

"I didn't do it." Xia Beifeng closed the book in his hand. He raised his chin at Shen Luotian, "Go to the kitchen to eat by yourself...... I'm embarrassed to come back so late, I didn't rub my car off. ”

"Who is so sympathetic and cooks for you, it is simply a living Buddha with boundless love!"

Shen Luotian took a few steps to the kitchen and opened the casserole lid on the stove.

The moment the lid of the pot was opened, the rich aroma rushed to his face with the neatness of the white flowers.

The low heat under the pot has not yet been turned off, and there is still more than half a pot of winter melon pork rib soup left in the pot, which is bubbling and bubbling, and there is a thin layer of oil floating on the white flower soup.

"How dare I rub your baby car, what if you dismantle me again!" Shen Luotian shouted loudly into the living room, took out a pair of chopsticks from the cabinet, fished out a piece of ribs and put it in his mouth, and then turned around and took out a bowl.

"You just eat yours, what so much nonsense!" Xia Beifeng looked at the back of Shen Luo Tiansheng's soup in the kitchen, and remembered one more thing.

"Remember to wash the dishes when you're done eating!"

"Got it."

Xia Beifeng lowered his head again and began to flip the book in his hand.

And Ning Lu outside the window was completely ignored by him.

After Shen Luotian finished dinner, he returned to the living room again, turned on the TV, and took out the game controller.

"Can't you just go a day without playing games?" Xia Beifeng complained while flipping through the book, "It's okay to play when you're home alone, and you still play when I come back, so you can't talk to me?" ”

"Of course you can!" Shen Luotian sat up straight, stared at Xia Beifeng and asked, "My dear brother, what do you want to talk to me about?" ”

Xia Beifeng's words were originally a casual complaint, but at this time, he was stared at intently by his younger brother, and he really couldn't think of anything to talk about for a while.

"Uh......" he put down the book in his hand and touched his nose in embarrassment.

Shen Luotian nodded, waiting expectantly for him to speak.

The melodious opening music of the news broadcast echoed in the empty living room.

Two men sat on the couch, relatively silent.

Ning Lu, who was standing outside the window, silently lowered her head and kicked a small stone under her feet, she couldn't bear to look at them anymore.

The pebble rolled a few times under her feet, and finally crashed into the floor-to-ceiling window after she accidentally used too much force.

The two men in the room turned their heads in unison, staring out the empty window with murderous intent.

Ning Lu couldn't help but take two steps back.
