The doors and windows of this wing were closed, the curtains were drawn inside, and a copper lock was inserted outside the door. The room was dark inside, without any light.
Who lives here that requires such strict precautions?
They even locked it outside!
I looked at Lonnie, she was also confused and obviously didn't know what was going on inside.
Apu, who was walking in front, turned around and saw Lonnie and I stopped and looked into the wing, with a panic expression on his face.
"You two, stop reading, the eldest lady will be angry if she finds out!"
I asked curiously, "Brother, who is locked up here, and why do you want to lock him in the room?"
Ah Liang sighed and looked around, then whispered, "The one in this room is the eldest young master He Jiafu!"
It turns out that although the He brothers died in an accident, they all left heirs. The He family can be considered to have successors. The eldest young master, He Jiafu, has just turned twenty and is attending college outside. He will naturally be the successor of the He family in the future. inherit.
Unexpectedly, a few days ago, He Jiafu fell seriously ill shortly after returning from vacation and became bedridden.
The eldest wife Sun Xiuxiu sent her son to this wing to recuperate, and no one was allowed to come near him. It has been twenty days now!
"What kind of disease does Young Master He have? Why don't you go see a doctor?"
I was very confused. According to common sense, if you get seriously ill, don't you usually rush to the hospital for treatment?
This eldest lady locked her son in this dark wing and didn't allow anyone to get close to him. This doesn't seem to be consistent with common sense?
I was about to continue asking Apu for some inside information, but Apu waved his hand and didn't want to say anything more.
After all, the main reason we came here this time was to help the He family get rid of those monsters, and they didn't dare to say more when we asked so many irrelevant things.
I didn't say anything further, and Apu led me to the room arranged for us.
Apu said goodbye, and Lonnie and I began to look around at the room we were going to stay in tonight.
The room is not big, but it is clean and tidy, and all facilities are available.
After Lonnie closed the door, she turned around and asked, "Xiao Chengzi, when you passed by He Guofu's room just now, did you feel anything was wrong?"
I asked: "You mean that strange smell?"
Lonnie nodded: "Yes, it's not Yin Qi, resentment, or evil Qi. I can't tell. In short, it's very strange."
"It seems that the He family has many secrets."
Lonnie's statement is consistent with my feelings. Since entering the He family compound, although it seems calm on the surface, everyone in the He family has been very polite to us.
But for some reason, I always feel that something is not right, that kind of indescribable feeling that makes people very uncomfortable.
"In short, we just need to be careful and complete what we have to do."
I didn't plan to delve too much into the secrets of the He family. I just wanted to solve the Wangjiazhuang matter as soon as possible and complete the mission of Mr. Hu San.
As for the rest, it has nothing to do with me.
After resting for a while, Apu knocked on the door again and came in.
"The eldest madam invites you two to have a meal."
Apu stood outside the door and said respectfully.
I responded and followed Apu to the restaurant with Lonnie.
There is a large round table in the middle of the restaurant, with more than a dozen precious dishes placed on it, all delicious and delicious.
The He family is really rich. I can't help but marvel at how they can prepare such rich dishes in such a remote village.
"Please take a seat, both of you."
Seeing Lonnie and I walking over, Liu Xiuxiu quickly stood up and said attentively.
Lonnie and I sat down opposite Liu Xiuxiu and immediately asked, "Madam, how are the surveillance preparations going?"
Liu Xiuxiu said: "A Liang and the others have just come back and are debugging. It is expected that the installation will be completed before evening."
"That's good."
I nodded and said calmly.
"Sister-in-law, these two are the masters you invited, right?"
At this moment, a voice came from outside the door.
I turned around and saw a woman holding a teenage boy and walking over with a smile.
This woman was in her thirties, with delicate features and simple clothes. At first glance, she looked like a well-educated woman.
The little boy she pulled had a tiger-like head and a big, clear eyes, which made people fall in love with him at first sight.
"Hello, you two, I am Lian Qingqing, the wife of the second son of the He family, and this is our child He Jialu."
Lian Qingqing walked up to us, took the initiative to introduce herself, and then patted the little boy on the head.
"Jialu, hurry up and say hello to your brother and sister."
The little boy called out sweetly to Lonnie and me: "Hello, brother, hello, sister!"
"Hey, this kid is so good!"
Lonnie had never been able to resist cute children, so she immediately pulled He Jialu to her side and started asking questions.
After seeing Lian Qingqing's mother and daughter, Liu Xiuxiu's face became very ugly. She gave Lian Qingqing a cold look, with a look of dissatisfaction on her face.
"You come here so late even though you know there are guests at home. You really don't understand the rules!"
Lian Qingqing seemed a little afraid of Liu Xiuxiu, and quickly explained: "Sister-in-law, I just went to deliver food to the old lady, so I was a little late..."
"What are you pretending to be?"
Liu Xiuxiu snorted coldly, "I haven't seen how filial you are to the old lady before. Now that the old lady is sick, you start to pretend to be a daughter-in-law?"
"Are you still hoping that the old lady will give you a share of the family property before she dies?"
Being accused like this by Liu Xiuxiu, even Qing Qingqing's face showed a hint of anger: "Sister-in-law, how could you talk like that? I didn't mean that..."
Liu Xiuxiu said coldly: "Whether you mean that, you know it yourself!"
Seeing that the two sides were about to quarrel, I quickly looked away.
"Well, let's discuss how to deal with those monsters at night..."
Both Lonnie and I could see that the relationship between the sisters-in-law didn't seem to be very good, and there was a strong smell of gunpowder between the two parties.
This is their family matter, and of course I won't interfere with it, but it's really inappropriate to make such a fuss in front of Lonnie and I.
Liu Xiuxiu seemed to realize this, so she said nothing more and lowered her head to eat.
After finishing the meal, Lian Qingqing took the initiative to stand up and put away the dishes.
Liu Xiuxiu didn't even look at Lian Qingqing, and took the initiative to invite Lonnie and me to the living room next door to discuss how to deal with zombies at night.
After arriving in the living room, Liu Xiuxiu brought A Liang over and asked about the monitoring installation.
"Madam, it has been installed and can be used tonight."
A Liang said respectfully.
"good!"
Liu Xiuxiu nodded and asked me again: "Master Cheng, what should we do next?"
