Start a Core Pod

Chapter 1345 Under the dark night (Meow pats his round belly and rolls)

“I didn’t expect that the situation in Meijia’s family would be so complicated.”

After sending Meijia "back to her room" to rest, Shajiuye also came to Duanmuhuai's room and started chatting.

"In the past, Meijia rarely mentioned her family situation to me, but now it seems that it is not unreasonable."

"It's like this in a big family. The more people there are, the more troubles there are."

Duanmuhuai stretched and looked out the window.

"From this point of view, it's fortunate that we don't have so many relatives."

"Yes, having too many relatives can easily lead to various problems, but you still haven't been able to sever ties with each other."

Having said this, Duanmu Huai snorted softly. Although they are considered a wealthy family in this world, in fact there are only two people, Duanmu Huai and Sha Jiuye, and there are no relatives who cannot be beaten. Of course, even if there were, Duanmuhuai's temper would keep them in check.

If that doesn't work, just let them disappear. After all, Duanmu Huai himself is also from the past.

"Anyway, let's rest first and talk about it tomorrow."

"Okay, good night, brother."

After saying good night, Shajiuye went back to his room, while Duanmuhuai looked at his mobile phone for a while and felt that it was not interesting, so he also planned to go to bed...

"Da da da……"

"Um?"

At this moment, there was a rattling sound outside the window. Duanmuhuai turned around and saw that it had started raining outside the window at some point. Duanmuhuai opened the window and saw that it was already pitch black outside. The howling wind mixed with raindrops blew in his face, and even the vines covering the outside of the mansion were dancing, looking like snakes.

"I never heard it would rain."

Duanmuhuai picked up the phone in confusion, and then saw a heavy rain warning displayed on it...

"…………"

If he remembered correctly, when he went out this morning, the weather forecast on his mobile phone still showed sunny weather.

Co-author The current weather forecast is not a forecast, it is a weather report, right?

By the way, Duanmu Huai also remembered that when he was at home, the weather forecast on TV was basically inaccurate. It said it was going to rain tomorrow, but it turned out to be sunny. He said it would be sunny tomorrow and went out happily, but he ended up getting soaked in the water. This crappy weather forecast is useless...

Duanmuhuai complained, then closed the window and lay on the bed to dream.

Soon, the night passed.

The next morning, when Duanmuhuai woke up, the first thing he heard was... the sound of rushing water.

"Good guy, this rain is quite heavy."

Duanmu Huai stood up and looked out the window, only to see that it was pouring rain outside, and the rain falling from the eaves was like a waterfall.

This weather... never mind, they weren't going out anyway.

After washing up, Duanmuhuai and Shajiuye came to the restaurant, where breakfast was already prepared. But the maid was not seen. Speaking of last night, when Duanmu Huai and others arrived at the restaurant, dinner had been set, but the maid did not show up at all.

According to Huang Mao, the maids here have always been like this, and she was like this at several birthday parties when he was a child.

"Hey, morning, Duanmu, Shajiuye."

When Duanmu Huai came to the restaurant, Huang Mao and his hot girlfriend were already waiting there. On the other side was the social man and his big dog. The two parties sat on both sides of the table, and it was obvious that they were not dealing with each other.

"Did you sleep well last night?"

"It's okay, but I didn't expect it to rain so heavily today."

Duanmuhuai and Shajiuye sat down and nodded to Huang Mao at the same time, who also laughed.

"That's right. Speaking of which, this kind of heavy rain is really rare here. I don't know how long it will last. But it shouldn't affect..."

"Ooohhhhhhhhhhhh!"

However, before Huang Mao finished speaking, suddenly, a scream came from the distance, and everyone present was stunned when they heard the scream.

"what happened?"

"Anyway, just go and have a look and you'll find out."

Duanmuhuai stood up directly and walked out of the restaurant, while Shajiuye hurriedly followed, followed by Huang Mao.

"Here!"

Just like when she noticed the cries for help from workers on the mountain before, Shajiuye seemed to be quite sensitive in this regard. If her panel could be digitized, I am afraid that the [Listening] item would be at least above 80. She was seen running quickly along the corridor toward the front, while Duanmu Huai and Huang Mao followed closely behind her.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared at the corner of the corridor in front. That was none other than the boy with glasses who had never appeared before. At this moment, his face was pale and he was stumbling towards this side. When he saw everyone, the boy with glasses was stunned for a moment, and then wanted to run away.

"Hey, stop here."

However, he was caught by Huang Mao.

"What happened?"

"No, no, nothing happened!"

The boy with glasses looked pale at the moment and shook his head desperately, but Huang Mao obviously didn't intend to listen to his excuse.

"Is everything okay? Your kid always looks like this every time something happens. Something must be wrong! Tell me!"

"…………"

However, even when Huang Mao pressed him, the boy with glasses still shook his head and said nothing.

"Isn't there a chapel in front of you? What did you do?"

chapel?

Hearing Huang Mao's roar, Duanmu Huai remembered that this corridor was the one leading to the annex. Meijia came here yesterday when she took them to visit, but the door of the chapel was locked at that time, so Meijia only gave a brief introduction. And now it looks like they're heading to the chapel?

The boy with glasses remained silent and struggled desperately to escape. To be honest, seeing this useless look, even Duanmu Huai was unhappy, and Huang Mao was obviously the same. He directly grabbed the boy with glasses and pulled him towards the end of the corridor. Duanmuhuai and Shajiuye looked at each other and followed Huang Mao.

The entire corridor is L-shaped. The long section is connected to the main building where Duanmu Huai and others live. After the turn, the end is connected to the chapel called the annex. Just now the boy with glasses ran over from the corner, and now everyone is also walking from that corner.

Duanmu Huai still remembered clearly that the door of the chapel that Meijia had seen yesterday when she took herself and others to visit was a pure white double door. There are some pretty-looking decorations on it, or so it seems.

But now, under the reflection of the floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides of the corridor, the white door reflects the rain outside, looking like snakes crawling on it, which is particularly weird. Of course, the most important thing besides this is... the door that should have been closed is now open.

Although there is only a crack.

"what happened!?"

Seeing this, Huang Mao's complexion changed. He grabbed his glasses and strode towards the chapel. The latter struggled desperately, and the closer they got to the chapel, the harder they struggled. However, Huang Mao was unmoved at all. He just dragged his glasses to the door of the chapel, and then opened the door directly.

Then, the scene in front of them was completely revealed in front of everyone.

There is nothing strange about the chapel itself. The inside looks similar to the kind of chapel you would go to for a Western wedding. There are long chairs on the left and right sides. The guests sit on the chairs, and then the priest stands behind the podium in front, looking at The bride and groom come in and wait...

Well, why are you saying this at this time?

The reason is simple. Duanmu Huai feels there is nothing special to say.

After all... when you open the door and see a corpse hanging on the wall of the chapel in front of you, you really don't have much to say, right?

You can't say that today's weather is...well, this weather isn't that good either.

So Duanmu Huai stood there like this, with thoughts that had nothing to do with the situation at hand spinning in his mind.

It's no wonder, after all, the scene in front of me is indeed very surreal.

Inside the chapel, the decorative stained glass windows on the wall in front were completely broken. The strong wind roared into the chapel mixed with raindrops. Even the people standing at the door could feel the oncoming raindrops and icy cold air. .

Of course, if that's the case, it's just that the glass is broken, but that's not the problem.

Looking up, you can see where the glass is broken. Several vines like tree roots have penetrated through the gap. They are rising high, and at the end of the vines, there is a corpse wrapped around it. The latter was tightly bound by vines, as if entangled by a giant python, and even his body had been twisted and deformed, as if it had been torn apart.

The face full of pain has turned into a horrifying look, and you can even see the vine shoots pouring out of the open mouth...

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

At this moment, thunder rang out, as if it heralded the prelude to a horrific murder... Okay, that's the end of the boring rants.

Duanmu Huai took back his thoughts. If it was really a murder, he didn't need to be afraid. Duanmu Huai wanted to see who had the guts to kill him.

"Hey, what on earth is this..."

At this moment, Huang Mao also looked frightened. It was no wonder, after all, he saw a corpse, and it was still a corpse like this. In comparison, Shajiuye seemed much calmer. Although she was a little uneasy, Shajiuye still reached out and pulled Duanmuhuai's clothes.

"Brother, that one...isn't that from the Supernatural Research Society yesterday..."

"Oh, it sounds like it's her indeed."

After hearing Sha Jiuye's reminder, Duanmu Huai also reacted and remembered that the girl who came yesterday should be the one with glasses.

What's the name...forget it, everyone is dead, so the name doesn't matter anymore.

At this time, Huang Mao also came to his senses and saw him grabbing the collar of his glasses and lifting him up.

"Hey! What's going on? Why does that woman appear here? Tell me!"

"Ah, ah, ah...wuwu..."

However, in the face of Huang Mao's questioning, the boy with glasses just shook his head desperately and refused to speak.

"Let me do it."

Seeing this, Duanmu Huai patted Huang Mao's shoulder and signaled him to let her come.

"Huh? Oh, okay."

At this moment, Huang Mao also came to his senses, put down his glasses, and stood beside him.

"But I advise you to be careful. This kid can't beat a fart. Sometimes he would rather be beaten to death than say a word."

"Hahaha, don't worry and leave it to me."

Faced with Huang Mao's reminder, Duanmu Huai chuckled.

Just kidding, he is a judge, and interrogation is Duanmuhuai's specialty, not to mention...

Duanmuhuai glanced at his panel silently, then walked forward, grabbed the glasses, and lifted him up.

"Alas---!"

Looking at Duanmu Huai, his glasses were trembling even more. His originally gloomy face was now even more pale, looking like a small animal about to be hunted by a ferocious beast.

"What happened? I advise you to tell the truth."

Having said this, Duanmuhuai sneered and stared at his glasses.

"If you dare to hide it... maybe you will be the next one to die?"

In fact, Duanmuhuai has a simpler way, just shadow copy, but now...it's not too late to check the situation first.

"I, I said——!"

Finally, Glasses screamed and shouted.

"Saeki-kun, she heard what I said about the Shirahon family's ceremony, and she was very interested in it..."

"Is that why she came with you?"

"Yes, it is……"

"Sure enough, I guessed it would be like this!"

Upon hearing Glasses' confession, Huang Mao next to him suddenly cursed.

"I just said, you don't look like a guy who is interested in supernatural things. How could you join some supernatural society? After doing it for a long time, you fell in love with her and then used our family's rituals to do it. It’s time to talk, right?”

"I, I just want to chat with Saeki-san, and I think she is very knowledgeable about this aspect...and, I also want to do it for Sister Mika..."

"That's right, Meijia!"

Huang Mao and Sha Jiuye were shocked at this moment. Knowing the current situation, the ceremony must have been broken. Although they don't know how Saeki died, what about Meijia's situation?

"I'll call and ask..."

Shajiuye hurriedly took out her mobile phone, and then her expression changed slightly.

"How could it be? No signal? It was obviously fine just now..."

"no signal?"

Huang Mao also took out his phone and took a look at it, frowning.

"how come?"

"Neither does mine."

Duanmuhuai threw the boy with glasses to the ground, then took out his cell phone and took a look - well, it's the same.

Obviously there will still be a signal when I check the weather forecast in the morning.

"Could it be that there was thunder just now and damaged the signal base station?"

Huang Mao scratched his head, looking unhappy.

"I'm going to the second floor!"

"I'm going to find Granny Mikawa. Damn it, if something like this happens, no matter what her rules are or not, let Meijia go first!"

Shajiuye turned around and left in a hurry, running in the direction he came from, and Huang Mao also left with her.

Duanmu Huai did not follow them away immediately, but walked into the chapel first and looked at the corpse in front of him.

It was just a rough glimpse, not a detailed look, but now, Duanmu Huai finally saw the appearance of the corpse clearly. It was obvious that she was entangled in these vines and then forcibly twisted her body to death. It can be seen from the pained and stiff expression of the other party.

Not only that, a big hole was also opened in the girl's abdomen, and you could clearly see the vines pouring out of it. Perhaps because a long time had passed, the blood was almost drained. It can be seen from the wide open abdominal cavity that the entire vine penetrated from under the girl's body, penetrated her body, and then tore her internal organs and abdominal cavity. The remaining part came from the girl's wide-open mouth. and drilled out of the ears.

Well... Judging from the tragic scene before her death, she must have been alive when all this was going on.

"What else did she say to you?"

Duanmuhuai retracted his gaze and stared at the boy with glasses. The latter was completely paralyzed at the door with fear, and he didn't even dare to look here.

"She, after she heard what I said, she said she wanted to visit the chapel. But I told her that the chapel will only be opened on birthdays..."

"Then why are you here?"

"Because when I looked for her this morning, I found no one in the room. Then I thought that Saeki-san might come to the chapel, and then I came to take a look... and found that the chapel door that was supposed to be locked was open... Then I pushed the door open, and then I...I..."

"oh."

Duanmuhuai nodded and looked away.

There is nothing to see here. This is not a murder case like a detective, and I don't need to conduct any on-site investigation. Although these vines are very suspicious, Duanmuhuai doesn't feel anything like the atmosphere of the old days or outside gods from these vines. They seem to be just ordinary plants...

Let’s talk about it later. In short, let’s go and see how the situation is over there.
