At this moment, the Dink family's eyes were red, veins were exposed on their foreheads, and they were like a crazed lion, furious.

Compared with the gentle and elegant posture before, he is completely different!

"Boss Ding, I just want to take a look at this picture album, what about you?"

The Dink family suddenly became furious, which surprised me and made me angry.

"I told you, don't look!"

The Dink family stared at me, as if they wanted to devour me.

I stared at him without showing any signs of weakness, and the smell of gunpowder in the air became thicker and thicker.

"Boss Ding, don't be angry!"

Seeing this, Lonnie quickly stood between us and hurriedly said to Dink's house.

"Our family Cheng Yi was very careless and almost soiled your picture album. I apologize to you on his behalf."

I was stunned for a moment: "Ni, I didn't do anything wrong..."

"Do not talk!"

Lonnie glared at me, then turned her head and said to the Dink family with a smile: "Boss Ding, don't worry about it, we will pay attention to it in the future."

Reaching out to avoid hitting the smiling person, Lonnie's attitude was so humble that the Dink family didn't want to be angry anymore, so they just waved their hands.

"Forget it, there was something wrong with me just now. I shouldn't have been angry at Mr. Cheng."

Seeing that the Dink family's anger had subsided, Lonnie took the opportunity to ask: "Boss Ding, I know that you artists attach great importance to your works. I guess this album is your proud work, right?"

The Dink family shook their heads: "It's not a proud work."

The Dink family considered their words and began to explain their unusual behavior just now.

"Let me tell you this, those of us who create are all extreme perfectionists and always want to present the best work to everyone."

"However, before every perfect work is born, it must go through countless failures. This is something we do not want to make public. And the paintings in this album are all failed paintings, so I am not willing to let Mr. Cheng See."

What about lying to children? It’s possible to say such nonsense. I glanced at Dink’s house and didn’t snort or say anything.

Lonnie smiled faintly: "Boss Ding is so humble. Even your failure is a work that laymen like us will never be able to paint in our lifetime."

No one could withstand the compliments of others. Although Dink waved his hands repeatedly to show humility, the pride on his lips could not be concealed at all.

After chatting for a while, Lonnie made an excuse to go back to rest, and pulled me out of the studio and back to her room.

As soon as I closed the door, I started nagging dissatisfiedly.

"Ni, why did you apologize to him just now? This guy is simply a lunatic. How can he get angry for no reason..."

"Don't you think there's something wrong with this Dink family?"

Lonnie glanced at me and said calmly.

I immediately said: "I have noticed it a long time ago. Not only him, but also this B&B, especially the pictures on the wall, is full of weirdness."

Lonnie asked: "Then tell me, what is so weird about those portraits?"

"Um, what should I say?"

I pondered while organizing my words: "Those portraits, although very bright, are a bit too bright, just like... a peach that is about to rot. As soon as you poke it, the rotten juice will flow out!"

Lonnie nodded appreciatively: "Well said, your metaphor is really good, it feels the same as mine."

"However, since this Dink family has such a big problem, we can't fall out with her now. If he gets angry and insists on not letting us stay in the hotel, how can we continue to investigate?"

I was stunned: "Investigating Dink's house? You mean, this guy is related to the man in black robe?"

Lonnie frowned and said: "It's not certain yet, but it is possible. In addition to what you just said, I can also feel an unusual aura from this B&B, which is similar to what happened to He Jiafu that day. The corpse energy I feel is somewhat similar."

Only then did I understand why Lonnie was so humble towards the Dink family. It turned out that she had a plan.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you."

I said nothing more and prepared to act according to Lonnie's plan.

After resting for a while, I suddenly felt a tremor in my chest. I took out the locator and saw that the talisman on it was shining with golden light.

"Bai Ze is waiting for us downstairs. Let's go down and take a look first."

Lonnie nodded and walked out of Yuelai Inn with me to the foot of the mountain.

From afar, we saw Bai Ze standing at the entrance, hands behind his back, waiting for us.

"Brother Bai, have you found any clues?"

Walking up to Bai Ze, I asked directly.

Bai Ze shook his head with a bitter look on his face.

"I don't know where this guy is hiding. I walked around for a whole day and I didn't feel his breath!"

I comforted him, "Don't be discouraged. This resort is huge and it's not easy to find someone who is deliberately hiding."

"Come on, let's fill up first!"

The three of them quickly found a roadside stall, ordered some wine and food, and started chatting while eating.

During the chat, a woman walked through the crowd and walked directly in front of me.

"Mr. Cheng, Miss Lang, what a coincidence!"

This woman was in her thirties, with long hair and good looks. She stood in front of Lonnie and me, smiling and saying hello.

I asked with some confusion: "Who are you?"

"Mr. Cheng is such a noble man and forgets things. I live in a B&B with you two."

As soon as the woman explained, I suddenly realized, no wonder it looked so familiar, it turned out to be her.

It was the female traveler who acted as a model in Dink's studio today.

But this woman didn't speak to us at that time. During the painting at Dink's house, she just sat on the chair and said nothing.

Even when I had a conflict with the Dink family, she didn't say a word. She was like a tool throughout the whole process, very cold, so I didn't have much impression of her.

If she hadn't taken the initiative to remind her, I really wouldn't have remembered it.

"Oh, it's you!"

Although we don't like this woman very much, she can be regarded as an "acquaintance" of ours in this resort.

Now when people take the initiative to say hello, I naturally have to treat them politely.

"You're here to eat too, right?"

The woman nodded: "Yes, the air in the mountains is good, but there are no places to eat. It's quite troublesome to have to go down the mountain to look for food when it's meal time."

After hearing what the woman said, Lonnie stood up and invited her.

"If you don't mind, just sit with us."

"That's great!"

The woman nodded and came over to sit with us.

During the chat, we learned that this woman’s name is Zhou Lina. She is a backpacker who likes photography. She often travels by herself and has been staying at Yuelai B&B for a week.
