The conversation with Liu Manwen ended unhappily again, Liu Manwen insisted that there was Liu Manzhen's ghost in the Liu house, and asked Pan Weixuan to invite the Taoist monk to come and do it, saying that this time he must beat the ghost of the monster away, and he didn't care that the ghost in his mouth was his adopted daughter who had raised him for many years.

Although Ni Huairou knew that this matter had nothing to do with her mother, she still felt angry in her heart after hearing Liu Manwen's decision, her mother was raised by Liu Manwen, and now she was hated by Liu Manwen even if she died.

On the one hand, Ni Huairou finally experienced her mother's life back then, and on the other hand, she had a deeper understanding of her mother's decision to leave that year.

Looking at Pan Weixuan's respectful attitude towards Liu Manwen, although it was not enough to obey his words, Pan Weixuan did basically agree with Liu Manwen's words, and he really contacted the monks in the nearby mountain temples to come to practice.

The weather was gloomy and thunderstorms were constant, and in such weather, Liu Manwen actually asked Pan Weixuan to bring people in the afternoon, looking arrogant and arrogant.

Shen Lang looked at Ni Huairou who was standing by the window and couldn't help but sigh that Ni Huairou's so-called grandmother really made him see Liu Manwen's meanness and madness.

"Xiaorou, do you already know something? Was there anything wrong with the 'Wu Meng' you saw last night? Have you found any clues? ”

Hearing Shen Lang's question, Ni Huairou turned around and saw that there was no one around, and put the marbles in front of Shen Lang again.

"I suspect this is the result of the knock I heard."

"Marbles?" Shen Lang took this small glass marble, thought about it and frowned at Ni Huairou.

"Well, marbles. The sound I heard was a pause after a pause, and the interval between them was not very long, and if it was a normal knock, it should be two or three times in a row. ”

Ni Huairou took the marbles back, pinched her fingers and smashed DuangDuang twice on the glass in front of her, the sound was indeed like a knock on the door, but there was still a difference between smashing on the glass and the wooden door.

"I suspect that someone slammed the door with marbles to make me think someone knocked on the door, only to open the door and see nothing, and with the ability of an ordinary person, I would not have been able to leave the scene so quickly. A few times in a row, it will create a sense of fear in people's hearts, so that it is not difficult to see hallucinations. ”

"According to you, the knocking on the door is done by marbles like this, so where is the prisoner?"

Although Ni Huairou's suspicion sounds unrealistic at first glance, if you think about it carefully, it is actually all feasible, since the hypothesis can be established, then there must be a way to implement it.

Next, we must find out more clues before we can further investigate the truth, Shen Lang turned his head and turned his gaze to the handrail on the second floor, although the corridor on the second floor could not see the whole picture clearly, but the door of the room was clearly visible.

If someone really did it deliberately, it would not be too difficult to smash the door with marbles, and the door of the room where Ni Huairou lived was two doors, and it was really not difficult to accurately knock on the door with a large attack area and small marbles.

There is only one point, if you want to smash the marbles on the door without being discovered, you must do it from a distance, otherwise the chance of being found is too great, how can the person make the marbles smash the door without exposing himself?

Ni Huairou and Shen Lang went up to the second floor, and found three identical glass marbles at the door, a total of four marbles, and the knock on the door that Ni Huairou heard last night was indeed four.

That's right. Holding four glass marbles, Ni Huairou's eyes narrowed, and finally knew why the knock on the door came intermittently, and the reason why he couldn't see anyone when he opened the door so quickly.

Liu Manwen was in the room during lunchtime, perhaps because he didn't want to see Ni Huairou and Shen Lang, two outsiders, Pan Weixuan arranged for the three of them to sit together, and simply relayed Liu Manwen's opinion.

Regarding Ni Huairou's great disrespect, Liu Manwen felt that it was because she was frightened last night, and asked Ni Huairou to let the master exorcise the evil spirit for her in the afternoon.

Pan Weixuan didn't tell Ni Huairou the last sentence of Liu Manwen, "lest you become a white-eyed wolf like Liu Manzhen at the beginning", and even so, Ni Huairou's expression had cooled down.

"Rourou, Grandma is old, she may be a little stubborn, she is sick now, don't worry too much about her."

"I won't bother with her, but I will never compromise on my mother's affairs. Just get to the bottom of that Faceling, and I hope you can help me convince her to tell me about my father, and then I'll leave. ”

Originally, the purpose of coming to Liu Mansion was to get useful information, otherwise Ni Huairou would have no interest in this mother's adoptive mother at all, and now she just wants to know more clues as soon as possible, and fight back before that person finds her.

"Can't you stay? Where else can you go besides here? Looking for your father? Even if I do find him, as far as I know, the reason why Aunt Manzhen came back for help was because she had a problem with your father. Moreover, you have been in an accident for so long, and he has not looked for you, could it be because of ......"

Pan Weixuan wanted to persuade, but Ni Huairou had already put down the chopsticks, wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin and looked like he was about to leave the table.

"No matter why you don't look for me, I don't mind, a place with parents is considered home, and this is not my home. I want to know more about my father, I have my reasons, and as for where I'm going, I can only take one step at a time. You are not my own brother, please don't interfere with my decisions like Liu Manwen. ”

Ni Huairou got up and left the dining room as she spoke, Pan Weixuan wanted to stand up and ask, but was stopped by Shen Lang, who was sitting opposite.

"I think it's better for you not to bother her now, she can't listen to anything now, if you really want to be good for her, just tell her as much as you can about her parents."

Shen Lang's tone was light, eating the food in the bowl slowly, he was not worried about Ni Huairou's situation at the moment, but he knew that Ni Huairou also needed to think about it alone.

Sitting on the seat, Pan Weixuan felt that what Shen Lang said made sense, Ni Huairou's words were very clear, she didn't regard herself as her brother's existence, and she had amnesia, so she must have thought that she was just a stranger in her mind.

Ni Huairou left the dining room to the servant's room on the first floor, thinking of the two maids she had seen before, Fangfang and Xiaoqiu lived in the same room, knocked on the door and entered the door in a panicked manner.

The servant's room on the first floor is not comparable to the room on the second floor, the simple room has two beds clean and plain, and there are no other furnishings except for the wardrobe, desk and bookshelves, but it does not look shabby.

"Don't be nervous, I just want to ask you a few questions."

Soothing the emotions of the two girls, Ni Huairou spoke gently, and by the way, spread out a few marbles in the palm of her hand to show them.

"Marbles?"

Fangfang looked curiously at the things in Ni Huairou's palm, the small transparent glass beads looked delicate like crystal balls, but the value was more than ten times cheaper than crystals.

"Have you seen this thing?"

Seeing that Xiaoqiu's face was full of curiosity, Ni Huairou directly stretched out her hand to Xiaoqiu's eyes, Xiaoqiu was timid enough to see Ni Huairou's expression, and had the courage to pinch it and look at it in front of her. "This ...... I think I've seen it before. ”

"Well, I seem to have seen similar beads somewhere. Yes! By the way, Xiaoqiu, don't you remember when we went to the second floor to clean? ”

Fang Fang suddenly clapped her hand and grabbed Xiao Qiu's hand to remind her, and Xiao Qiu immediately nodded with a look of sudden realization.

"Uh-huh! I remembered that I found them on the second floor when I was changing those petals, and it seems that there are several more. ”

Ni Huairou smelled the clues, grabbed the few small glass marbles and asked, "When did you clean it and see it?" ”

"It seems to be ......" Xiaoqiu whispered and was just about to answer, but was interrupted by Fangfang next to her and continued: "It seems that the old lady had an accident a few days ago, and we were still strange that there were no children in the villa, who would play with these little things." ”

"Hmm. Because it was strange, I told the light butler, but the light steward told us not to talk nonsense, and then took the small glass marbles away. ”

Xiaoqiu added Fangfang's words in a low voice, but saw that Ni Huairou's expression became serious and dignified.

"Light butler?"

Various assumptions flashed in his mind, and at present, it seems that everyone in the villa is suspicious, but after listening to Xiaoqiu and Fangfang's words, Ni Huairou feels that maybe the housekeeper is more suspicious.

After thinking about it, grabbing the glass marbles and asking out of the light housekeeper's room, Ni Huairou knocked on the door of the light housekeeper again, at least it is not super to ask.

knocked several times and no one answered, Ni Huairou looked up in the direction of the second floor suspiciously, wondering if the light housekeeper went to Liu Manwen's room to take care of it, and then grabbed the handle and pressed it tentatively, and the door was unlocked and open.

After hesitating for a long time, Ni Huairou felt that her behavior at the moment could be called breaking into an empty door, and without the permission of the master, the act of breaking into the empty door without permission did not seem to be done by a righteous gentleman.

However, fortunately, she is not a gentleman, Ni Huairou comforted herself calmly.

Looking left and right to see that no one was passing by, Ni Huairou's figure flashed into the room of the light housekeeper, because of the rainy day, the room was a little dim, but the general layout could be seen, which was more than twice as large as the room of Xiaoqiu and Fangfang.

But these are not what Ni Huairou wants to see, she quickly came to the desk and opened the drawers, which were neatly placed with notebooks, and then there were some sundries in the next few drawers.

Turning around and heading towards the closet, there were some men's clothes hanging in it, and there was nothing special in the unobstructed view, and he reached down and touched the soft fabric or soft fabric under the cabinet.

Closing the wardrobe back to its original state, Ni Huairou looked around the room and walked quickly to the bookshelf next to it, it seems that every house in the villa has a bookshelf, the difference is only the number of books, thinking that the villa does not have any entertainment equipment such as TVs and computers, and I also understand why there are books.

There are also a lot of books on the shelves, neatly placed one by one, and there are some fishing equipment in the bottom cabinet door, which must be the hobby of the housekeeper.

Almost searched all the places in the room, Ni Huairou still didn't find the same glass marbles as in his pocket, could it be that the butler threw away those things?

This possibility cannot be ruled out, Ni Huairou thought about it and looked at the big bed in the room, the cabinet at the head of the bed had been found, and there was nothing suspicious in it except for some sundries and medicines.

In the end, Ni Huairou looked at the bed of the light housekeeper and was stunned, could it be that he would hide on the bed? Although she felt that it was a little unlikely, Ni Huairou still lifted the pillow on the bed, and under the pillow there was a notebook on which the diary of the light housekeeper was recorded, and the records were all daily trivial things that were nothing special.

Ni Huairou turned the pillow back a little discouraged, flattened the quilt on the bed and returned to its original state, and suddenly the voices of Butler Guang and Pan Weixuan came from far and near, and Ni Huairou was shocked.

Seeing that the two stopped in front of the door, Ni Huairou's palms broke out in a cold sweat.
