Before answering, pdd subconsciously glanced at his phone.
The phone continued to hear the sound of the other party's phone being unanswered.
After Eggplant's surgery, Teacher Ma disappeared.
PDD, who was busy before and after, didn't pay that much attention. It was only after he finished his work that he realized that Teacher Ma had disappeared.
I called Teacher Ma several times later, but no one responded.
"That guy Mr. Ma, I don't know where he went. His knee is bandaged and he's still not honest."
"After he was hit by a car, he didn't know what he saw or what happened. He was completely frightened."
"Especially after hearing that you were almost kicked, Teacher Ma was a little mentally disturbed. Later I was busy with your affairs, so I didn't care so much."
"After you finished your work, I realized that Teacher Ma had disappeared and he didn't answer the phone after I called him several times."
After hearing pdd's words, Eggplant also frowned slightly.
But soon, he thought of something and said hesitantly: "Old prostitute, do you think there is a possibility that Lao Ma went to find Lin Rou?"
On the other hand, pdd nodded heavily.
"I also have this idea, otherwise where would Lao Ma go?"
at the same time.
Let’s talk about Lin Rou.
It's already two o'clock in the morning.
The streets were already deserted, and the dark sky was somewhat deserted under the illumination of the snow-white street lamps.
A figure walked leisurely on the street with his hands in his pockets, walking at a casual pace as if he were taking a walk.
It wasn't until she reached a quiet area and stood in the shadows that she stopped.
"This should be the store provided by the system, right?"
That's right.
This figure is Lin Rou.
After dealing with the incident of Teacher Ma being hit, she did not go home immediately.
Instead, he came to the store given by the system.
The shop in front of me is not the usual rows of shops.
It's a single-family house, but it's just a large flat floor.
It looks similar to the layout of a courtyard house. There is no plaque in front of the door or any other landmarks.
It's almost impossible to get anyone else's attention.
The only thing is that the store is decorated with earthen walls and wood.
These decorations all have a dark color.
Especially against the backdrop of the dark night, it looks like a giant beast that has been squatting somewhere.
This is the first time Lin Rou has come to this shop since the system rewarded it.
But she just stood at the door and did not go in.
An hour and a half ago, she received a call from Teacher Ma.
According to Teacher Ma's request on the phone, Lin Roucai chose to ask the other party to come to the funeral store to meet her.
After waiting here for about ten minutes, another figure appeared on the deserted street.
As he walked on the road, he looked down at his phone from time to time, and then looked around aimlessly, as if looking for a location.
It wasn't until the figure arrived in front of the store that Lin Rou slowly stood up and walked out of the darkness.
Lin Rou smiled at Teacher Ma, who was extremely emotionally unstable.
"coming?"
On the other hand, Teacher Ma seemed to be deliberately avoiding Lin Rou's gaze.
After taking a look at her, he said with some fear: "This house seems to be a bit evil, doesn't it belong to you too?"
Lin Rou nodded with indifferent eyes.
In fact, Lin Rou could clearly tell from Teacher Ma's eyes that he was actually very scared.
Whether it is to divert attention from other problems or to deliberately look around, it is all to cover up the fear in one's heart.
If you pay attention, you can see that Teacher Ma's hand holding the phone is trembling slightly at this moment.
Lin Rou was not in a hurry and just waited quietly.
Wait for Teacher Ma to take the initiative to speak.
Finally, after a while, Teacher Ma really couldn't stand this dead silence.
He took a deep breath and looked up at Lin Rou.
He said in a low voice: "I am here, so can I know why I will die?"
After hearing Teacher Ma's words, Lin Rou nodded calmly.
"Can."
As she spoke, Lin Rou's figure fell into darkness again. She came to the door of the store and pushed gently.
The wooden door instantly made a creaking sound.
Teacher Ma looked through the door view to see clearly what was going on inside.
But no matter how hard he looked, there seemed to be nothing but darkness inside the door.
Lin Rou just stood in front of the shop, as if the owner was here to greet customers.
"As long as you enter this door now, you will know all about your own death."
"The manner of your death, the time of your death and the probability of your death, I will tell you everything."
Hearing Lin Rou's words, Teacher Ma was stunned for a moment.
He glanced at Lin Rou standing beside him with his peripheral vision.
At this moment, she no longer looked like the amiable boss.
Instead, his whole body was filled with the aura of death and terror.
This terrifying aura seemed to be devouring Teacher Ma's soul, giving him the urge to run away quickly.
But it was precisely because of the fear of death that Teacher Ma had to choose to stay.
Lin Rou's voice hadn't stopped yet, her voice sounded like a ghost in the dark environment.
"As long as you enter the funeral pawn shop, the death contract will appear."
"Also after you know the cause of death, then you will also become a part of death."
"At that time, you will have no choice but to complete the contract."
"If you forcibly break the contract, you will suffer pain worse than death."
Lin Rou glanced at Teacher Ma who was trembling with fear at the bottom of the stairs.
She bent slightly and a smile appeared on her face.
He stretched out a hand as a gesture of invitation.
"Now that my door is open, what will you choose? Do you want to come in and have a seat?"
After hearing Lin Rou's words, especially after seeing the weird smile on her face.
Cold sweat was already falling from Teacher Ma's forehead.
But soon, Teacher Ma shook his head helplessly, and finally chose to walk through the door.
After walking through the door, the dark surroundings made Teacher Ma feel as if he was stepping into an endless abyss step by step.
Stab.
There was a faint smell of gunpowder smoke, and a match lit an oil lamp in the room.
The only light in the whole room came on.
By this faint light.
Teacher Ma, who had already walked in, could barely see a lot of things clearly.
A very old table, with a bottle of old wine on it and a broken and old scale.
It is a tool used for weighing in ancient times.
There was nothing special about the wine jar, but the scale made Mr. Ma feel a little weird.
