Chapter 113: Glass Marbles
"Since you're so sure it's man-made, why don't you call the police and have the police intervene to investigate? It was already an accident last time, and it still hasn't been done after so long, does it prove that person has always been here and never left? With such a dangerous person, the safety issue really needs to be considered, so who would dare to stay here? ”
Shen Lang leaned on the side of the bed with his chest around his chest, looked at Ni Huairou on the bed, and stared at Pan Weixuan.
Ni Huairou frowned, if someone did it deliberately, how did he let himself see Wu Meng? And how did that man know about himself?
It seems that the more he discusses it, the more he thinks about it, Ni Huairou feels that this matter reveals all kinds of doubts, there are no ghosts in this world, and even if there are, it should be explained by science, and it must be that he has ignored some important details.
"Mr. Shen, this is the Liu Mansion, and this is a private land. Grandma doesn't like others to enter the Liu Mansion casually, not to mention provoking the police to intervene, as for the security issues you mentioned, the Liu Mansion is full of people who know their roots. I will definitely deal with this matter, so I won't bother Mr. Shen about it. ”
Pan Weixuan turned to look at Shen Lang, there was no longer the usual polite smile on his face, Pan Weixuan looked dusty in a suit, and Shen Lang was also embarrassed when he hurried overnight.
Ni Huairou raised her hand to interrupt the confrontation between the two, and Ni Huairou didn't want to listen to the two men arguing.
"Alright, I'd like to freshen up first."
"I'll wait for you outside, you clean up briefly, and we'll go back to the courtyard later."
Shen Lang replied briskly, and after speaking, he turned around and walked out of the door, not giving Ni Huairou a chance to answer at all.
Pan Weixuan's brows were immediately raised and tightened, but Ni Huairou had already spoken, and Pan Weixuan nodded apologetically at Ni Huairou.
"Rourou, you clean up first, I'll tell you more about last night's events later."
Watching the two men walk out one after another, Shen Lang has been provocative since Pan Weixuan appeared, Ni Huairou didn't fail to see Shen Lang's hostility towards Pan Weixuan, but she didn't have the energy to mediate them.
got out of bed and simply freshened up, the blue and black at the moment made Ni Huairou look a lot haggard, and the lack of sleep for two consecutive days made her a little unable to concentrate, and she originally bent down to wash her face but her feet were soft and almost knocked on the washbasin.
The heavy exhalation buries the face in the cold water, the cold water stimulates the skin and makes people wake up instantly, looking at the white tiles under the water, the eyeballs touching the water flow make the redness deeper.
Holding your breath to drive away the chaotic thoughts in your head, it seems that the whole space is quiet, and it also allows reason to return to the brain to disconnect the chaotic thoughts.
"Mr. Shen, I hope you don't interfere with Rourou's life because of your own assumptions. This is Yau Yau's home, and you have no right to take her. ”
Out of the door, Pan Weixuan followed Shen Lang directly to the staircase, and raised his hand to press his wrist when Shen Lang took out the cigarette case.
was pressed by Pan Weixuan's wrist, Shen Lang raised his eyes to look at Pan Weixuan with a displeased face, and his eyes were not polite with a sarcastic tone.
"Pan Weixuan, what I do is my business, Xiaorou was with me before. But she has only been in the willow house for less than two days, you look at her current appearance, the whole person is haggard, and besides, this willow house is not safe, I can't let Xiaorou stay here and take risks. ”
Shen Lang's words made Pan Weixuan unable to refute, he looked at Shen Lang with a serious face, and looked at Ni Huairou's door before lowering his voice and speaking in a heavy tone.
"You can't take Rourou away, she belongs to the Liu Mansion!"
"Heh, only she can decide where Xiao Rou belongs, Pan Weixuan, you seem to be too wide. I'll tell you the truth, Xiao Rou came here just to know about her father, and she won't be here for long. ”
Lifting the corners of his mouth, Shen Lang looked at Pan Weixuan and sneered, Ni Huairou was here, he couldn't rest assured at all, if it wasn't for something difficult to deal with, according to Ni Huairou's character, he wouldn't call him in the middle of the night.
No matter how you look at this Liu house, not to mention the old lady Liu who doesn't look easy to get along with, Ni Huairou will not be taken seriously here at all, and will only be bullied.
"I've already investigated her father's affairs, and I'm sure Rourou won't leave. However, Mr. Shen, I would like to remind you not to sway Rourou's thoughts, otherwise I can only ask you to leave the Liu Mansion. ”
Pan Weixuan exuded the majesty of being a family member, and his eyes looked at Shen Lang with a threatening meaning, but he was right to get Shen Lang's sneer.
"I'm going to give you the same sentence, Xiao Rou's decision depends on what she thinks, she doesn't belong anywhere."
Butler Guang watched Pan Weixuan and Shen Lang talk back and forth, coughed in a low voice twice before walking to Pan Weixuan's side and ear it.
"Young master, the old lady asked you to go and say that she had something to explain to you."
Pan Weixuan frowned, looked at Shen Lang who didn't care, and finally looked at Ni Huairou's door and hesitated for a moment, then nodded to Steward Guang: "Let's go." ”
"Tsk." Watching Butler Guang and Pan Weixuan go downstairs, Shen Lang bit the cigarette in his hand on the corner of his mouth, and the lighter wiped off the flame and was just about to ignite it, Ni Huairou opened the door and walked out.
"Xiao Rou."
Ni Huairou saw Shen Lang's head, closed the door by the way, and walked towards Shen Lang in the direction of the stairs, when she suddenly stepped on something.
"Be careful!" Shen Lang quickly rushed up to support Ni Huairou, wrapped his arm around Ni Huairou's waist to hold it steady, and looked down at Ni Huairou.
Ni Huairou didn't care about Shen Lang's movements, she looked sideways at the ground behind her, her eyes searched the carpet in that area, and under the flickering of the lights, she saw something that shouldn't be here.
"I'm fine."
replied to Shen Lang with a sentence Ni Huairou pushed him away, squatted down and brushed the petals on the carpet with both hands, and sure enough, he saw something familiar and pinched it up and looked at it in front of him.
"What is this? Marbles? ”
Seeing Ni Huairou's movements, Shen Lang leaned down curiously and saw the transparent object that Ni Huairou was holding in his hand.
The small transparent marbles were pinched in Ni Huairou's fingers, and the warm lights in the corridor reflected the marbles as if they were invisible, blending into the flesh-colored fingertips of the skin.
"How did you end up here......"
Ni Huairou whispered to herself in confusion, and Shen Lang took it from her hand and looked at the light, closed her right eye and looked at it with her left eye.
"These little marbles are rarely sold, but my father loved to drink, and he used to have them in bottles. It's rare. ”
The small transparent marbles were even more small in Shen Lang's hand, and let go of the marbles rolling down from his fingers to his palms, and Shen Lang's tone was imperceptible with nostalgia.
Ni Huairou tilted her head, she had never seen anything like it, who made her a person with memory deficits, and her childhood memories could only be known from fragments of dreams and other people's mouths.
Grabbing back the marble and stuffing it into his pocket, Ni Huairou and Shen Lang also went downstairs, Liu Manwen was still sitting on the sofa, seeing the two people coming down expressionlessly, Pan Weixuan cast a concerned look at Ni Huairou.
"Xiaorou, what did you see yesterday, did you really see Manzhen's ghost?"
Liu Manwen's face couldn't tell whether it was ugly or weird, in short, it revealed a strange look, and Ni Huairou could see that Liu Manwen was holding back the fear in his heart.
Not in a hurry to answer Liu Manwen's words, Ni Huairou sat on the sofa next to her, reached out and felt the marbles she had just seen, removed the ceramic teacup in front of her, and put the marbles into the teacup tray to make a clanging sound.
"Before that, I'd like to ask if anyone has ever seen this thing."
As soon as the thing came out, Pan Weixuan sighed: "Huh? This is, marbles? ”
Pan Weixuan looked at Ni Huairou with some incomprehension and asked, Liu Manwen's expression became impatient, and he picked up his teacup and slammed it back on the teacup holder, and a few drops of tea splashed on the table.
"I'm asking you, you don't talk nonsense, did you see Manzhen's ghost yesterday!"
Liu Manwen's bad temper was revealed at this moment, but Pan Weixuan was not surprised to accompany the smiling face, Shen Lang frowned and didn't say anything.
Ni Huairou didn't eat Liu Manwen's set at all, she was just an old woman with a strange temper, she really had nothing to be afraid of, but her attitude was really disliked.
"What about you? Did you really see my mother's soul that time? ”
The rhetorical question made Liu Manwen tremble, as if he had thought of something terrible, and his expression suddenly stopped with fear.
"Rourou, didn't you say it was your friend who saw last night?"
Pan Weixuan interrupted the conversation between the two women, hurriedly got up and smoothed Liu Manwen's back, and picked up the teacup to relieve Liu Manwen's emotions.
"It was man-made, and although I don't know what the man's purpose was, I can be sure that he manipulated it to make me hallucinate. The so-called soul of my mother, as well as the deceased friend I saw last night, were all hallucinations. ”
Ni Huairou looked at the glass marbles that were still rolling in the teacup toll, said with a light affirmation, and then pinched the marbles with two fingers and played with them.
Shen Lang looked at Ni Huairou's demeanor as if she already knew what was going on, but she looked like she was unfathomable and didn't intend to expose the puzzle, knowing that Ni Huairou must have her own plans.
"I also think it's artificial, there is no way to resurrect the dead in this world, and besides, Xiao Rou's mother and the Wu Meng that Xiao Rou saw last night, the two of them have been dead for a long time and their bones are gone. Somebody must be playing tricks here, but you don't know it. ”
In fact, Shen Lang didn't know who was making trouble, but he believed in Ni Huairou, and he also believed that science would definitely be able to explain why Ni Huairou saw Wu Meng, and the so-called ghosts and strange phenomena must be man-made.
"Well, I also think it's artificial, but I didn't find any suspicious clues last time, although I said that some of them were dismissed, and now it seems that I am afraid that person did not leave here, and he shot again on the first day of Rourou's arrival. I think that person has something to do with Aunt Manzhen. ”
"Nonsense! You mean all I see is hallucination? That's obviously Manzhen's ghost coming to take revenge on me! This white-eyed wolf with no conscience, who is dead and still wants to toss me, I think she is taking revenge on me for not agreeing with her and the negative man surnamed Ni! ”
Liu Manwen slapped the table and glared at Ni Huairou with an angry expression, thinking that he would know some of the same experience as himself from Ni Huairou's mouth, but he didn't expect that even if he saw Ni Huairou with his own eyes, he still didn't believe it, which was not at all different from Liu Manwen's expectations.
Seeing that Liu Manwen was about to get out of control again, Pan Weixuan immediately appeared in front of the two, frowned at Ni Huairou and signaled her not to stimulate Liu Manwen anymore, and then faced Liu Manwen to appease the other party's emotions.
"Grandma, don't get excited, the matter hasn't been investigated clearly, and Rourou is just saying her opinion. I believe that even if it is really Aunt Manzhen's soul, it will not scare you in order to get revenge on you. ”
Liu Manwen glared at Ni Huairou angrily, her silver-white hair shook slightly because of her trembling body, and her emotionally unstable appearance reminded Ni Huairou of Liu Manwen's illness.
Pan Weixuan hurriedly took out the medicine bottle from Liu Manwen's pocket, knocked out a few pills and put them in Liu Manwen's palm, poured a glass of boiled water, and waited for Liu Manwen to take the medicine and hand it over.
