Chapter 38: Night
Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Second Night
Unlike the simple and unpretentious breakfast, the dinner was very generous. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info A variety of dishes are set on the table, and I am not afraid that people will not be able to finish them.
Bai He found that the cuisine here is somewhat similar to the Aotian cuisine on the earth, not only various stews and breads, but also things like stir-fried dishes, but because of the ingredients, the appearance is really not too good.
Seriously, the staple food is bread, and then the side dish is stir-fry, which always seems to make Bai He feel that something is not right.
[Eat, eat as much as you can.] York's appearance is like an uncle who entertains young people to dinner, and he is constantly recommending.
[Locke, eat this, men just want to eat more meat!hahahaha!]
[Linda, this is very complementary, eat it!]
[Everyone eats, look at you, the bowl is empty, eat it!]
Bai He couldn't help but feel a little distressed about the four young people on the table who were smiling with each other, this uncle was really annoyed. But that's how you eat with older people, no matter how much you eat they don't seem to see it, always urging you to eat this and that.
There was no hurry right now, so the two people in the maid group just waited on the sidelines. Seeing a table of good food in front of him but not being able to eat it at all was really a torment for Bai He, a foodie, but he was willing to endure it, because as long as a few people finished eating, it was their meal time as servants.
[Come, come, drink!] York got up and was about to pour drinks for a few people. There doesn't seem to be any such rule here, and it's possible that York was too happy to care about that.
The tall glasses of the six people on the table were filled with fuchsia liquid. By the way, the sixth person was probably York's wife, but for some reason she just smiled reluctantly and didn't speak.
【Here!Cheers!】York raises his glass!
Cheers!: It seems that there is no age limit in this world when it comes to drinking, and it seems that you can drink as long as you want. But of course, there are no such troublesome rules in this kind of era.
It seems that even the girls know that there should be no drop left at such a time, so after lifting it and putting it down, the wine glasses of the six people are all empty.
York laughed, and it seemed that he was really happy.
If it were normal, Bai He might think that this was a very ordinary and warm picture, but now he just wanted these people to end their dinner quickly, because he couldn't bear it anymore, and watching the same and delicious things disappear little by little, Bai He really felt that it was a harsh ordeal.
Dinner, and counting.
※
It was still a peaceful and silent night.
The chirping of insects on a summer night came to his ears through the window, as he sat indoors.
Because of habit, he didn't drink much wine or eat much at dinner, so now he is a little hungry and noisy that he can't sleep. But no matter how hungry he was, he was embarrassed to ask others for food at this time, after all, he didn't eat it himself at dinner, so no wonder others. Most of the food in his luggage was not eaten directly, and he couldn't sleep, so he had to sit on the bed and watch the stars to relieve his boredom.
said that he was looking at the stars, but as a rough man, how could he have that kind of mood, he was actually just looking at the sky in a daze.
At this moment, he sensed the sound of footsteps outside the hallway. But he didn't care, he wasn't the only one living in this house, and it was normal for footsteps to be heard.
Someone probably got up late.
He thought so, but he soon overturned his own idea. Because this footstep is really not right, if you walk normally, the footsteps should be very smooth, if you are drunk, the footsteps are vague, but the footsteps that echo in the silent corridor do not belong to the above two at all.
It was the sound of footsteps deliberately tiptoeing and muffling his voice to avoid being noticed by others.
Could it be that one of his companions wanted to do something in the night? He knows better than anyone else what the character of his companions is.
If it were normal, he might have pretended not to hear. But now he decided to take care of the matter, not only because the owner of the mansion had entertained them with good food and wine and gave them a room, but also because he could not sleep and had nothing to do.
The footsteps were about to reach the door of his room, and he approached the door gently, ready to take the man outside the door by surprise.
Now is the time!
Twist.
Open the door.
Astonished.
You look at me, I look at you.
He was then stabbed at lightning speed.
The knife was so fast that he didn't have time to react at all.
This knife hits the heart. He could feel his body temperature draining from his body little by little.
Without giving him a chance to make a sound, the man covered his mouth and stabbed him a few more times, leaving him no chance to live.
For...... Miscellaneous...... Is it?
Looking at the acquaintance in front of him with a twisted smile and the corners of his mouth about to crack his ears, he didn't understand what was going on until he died.

On a quiet summer night, insects chirp outside the window.
Smack (dull sound)
Bai He, who was asleep, was woken up by a slap from Mei Ou. This is not the usual gentle slap that makes Bai He be confused for a while after waking up, but a hot slap, this slap completely woke Bai He up from his dream.
Looking at the still dim light around him, Bai He realized that it was still night. If it's normal, forget it, what are you going to do when you wake people up in the middle of the night?!Bai He was full of anger at Mei Ou's approach after a long absence, and he raised his hand and opened his mouth to have a seizure.
Of course, if he can win against Mei Ou, then he won't be called Bai He. His movements were easily suppressed by Meo, and at the same time, a furry hand covered Bai He's mouth.
"Shh......h
Looking at Mei Ou's solemn expression, Bai He realized that something was definitely happening now, even if he was sluggish, he calmed down, relaxed his body and stopped resisting.
Seeing that Bai He did not resist, Mei Ou let go of his hand and moved away from him in a barely silent motion.
"What......" Bai He wanted to ask Mei Ou what happened, but before he could finish his sentence, Mei Ou covered his mouth.
"Shhhh......h
Bai He nodded, indicating that he had understood.
Mei Ou let go of the hand that was covering Bai He's mouth and looked at the door with a solemn expression.
Door?
Following her example, Bai He also paid close attention to the movement at the door, wanting to know what was there. But he didn't look like Meo after all, and he didn't have cat's ears with a keen sense of hearing, so he couldn't find anything.
However, Meiou has already reacted so solemnly, so there must be something outside the door.
Click......
The sound of the door lock being twisted sounded, and this sound made Bai He's whole body standing by the door cool in an instant.
It's just scared. Think about it from another perspective, if you fall asleep in the middle of the night and suddenly someone secretly twists the door lock without saying a word, you will also be scared.
It was not an ordinary twist that opened the door all at once, but a slow, fearful twist that the people in the room would notice.
The door to the room slowly pushed open, revealing a crack.
What is the guy out there, watching through that crack in the room?
At this time, Bai He noticed that Mei Ou was in a fighting pose. Learning her movements, Bai He also made a move that could instantly get out of her legs. He usually doesn't suffer from Mei Ou's beatings in vain, and he has learned at least eighty percent of Mei Ou's roundabout kick movements and power skills.
In this moment.
Dead night, dark town.
The four of them blooming with red flowers instantly turned into a room of a sea of blood.
Blue-black petals fluttering on his body, and someone whose face was obscured by the darkness was standing in front of him crying.
"For ...... Miscellaneous...... Why, you...... In the ......"
This...... What is it?
Several blurry images suddenly jumped into Bai He's mind.
Bai He could be sure without hesitation that this was by no means his memory, he had never seen a similar picture in the fourteen years since he was born.
He didn't have time to think about it, and the door had been pushed open before he knew it.
Meo lowered her body and prepared to move.
No way...... Can't let her continue!
A strong sense of disgust prompted Hakuga's body to react without any mental judgment.
He lunged forward and pushed Meo away.
The door opened completely, and a dagger reflecting silver light pierced Hakuga's chest through the crack in the open door with lightning speed.
Straight to the handle!
