Chapter 1345 Under the Dark Night

Chapter 1345: Under the Dark Night (Meow rolls around patting his round belly)

"I never thought that Meijia's situation was so complicated."

After sending Meijia "back to her room" to rest, Sha Jiuye also came to Duanmu Huai's room and started chatting.

"Meijia seldom told me about her family situation before, but now it seems to make sense."

"It's like this in wealthy families. The more people there are, the more trouble there is."

Duanmu Huai stretched and looked out the window.

"From this point of view, it's a good thing we don't have so many relatives."

"Yes, having too many relatives can easily lead to various problems, and you just can't cut off ties with them."

At this point, Duanmu Huai snorted. Although they were considered a wealthy family in this world, in fact, there were only Duanmu Huai and Sha Jiuye, and there were no distant relatives. Of course, even if there were, with Duanmu Huai's temper, he would have made them obedient.

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

"Anyway, take a rest first and we'll talk about it tomorrow."

"Okay, good night, brother."

After saying good night, Sha Jiuye went back to his room, while Duanmu Huai looked at his phone for a while, but found it boring, so he also planned to go to bed...

"Da da da………"

"Ok?"

At this moment, there was a tapping sound outside the window. Duanmu Huai turned around and saw that it had started to rain outside the window. Duanmu Huai opened the window and saw that it was already pitch black outside. The whistling wind mixed with raindrops blew towards him, and even the vines covering the outside of the mansion were dancing, looking like snakes.

“I didn’t hear it was going to rain.”

Duanmu Huai picked up his phone in confusion, and then saw a rainstorm warning on it...

"…………………"

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

So the current weather forecast is not a forecast, but a weather report, right?

Duanmu Huai also remembered that when he was at home, the weather forecast on TV was basically not accurate. It said it would rain tomorrow, but it turned out to be sunny. It said it would be sunny tomorrow, so he went out happily, but he ended up getting soaked. This crappy weather forecast is useless...

Duanmu Huai complained, then closed the window, lay on the bed and went to dream.

Soon, the night passed.

The next morning, when Duanmu Huai woke up, the first thing he heard was... the sound of splashing water.

"My goodness, it's raining hard."

Duanmu Huai stood up and looked out the window. He saw that it was raining heavily outside. The rain falling from the eaves was like a waterfall.

This weather... forget it, they are not going out anyway.

After washing up, Duanmu Huai and Sha Jiuye came to the restaurant, where breakfast was already prepared. However, there was no sign of the maid. Last night, when Duanmu Huai and others arrived at the restaurant, dinner was already served, but the maid did not show up at all.

According to Huangmao, the maids here have always been like this. It was like this several times when he attended birthday parties as a child.

"Hey, good morning, Duanmu, Shajiuye."

When Duanmu Huai arrived at the restaurant, the yellow-haired guy and his hot girlfriend were already waiting there, and on the other side was the gangster and his big dog. The two parties sat on opposite sides of the table, and it was obvious that they were not getting along.

"Did you sleep well last night?"

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

Duanmu Huai and Sha Jiuye sat down and nodded to Huangmao at the same time, who also laughed.

"That's right. It's rare to see such heavy rain here. I don't know how long it will last. But it shouldn't have any impact..."

“Uwaa ...

However, before Huangmao could finish his words, suddenly, a scream was heard in the distance, and everyone present was stunned when they heard the scream.

"what happened?"

"Anyway, just go and see for yourself."

Duanmu Huai stood up and walked out of the restaurant, and Sha Jiuye hurriedly followed him, followed by Huangmao.

"Here!"

Just like when she noticed the workers' cries for help on the mountain before, Sha Jiuye seemed to be quite sensitive in this regard. If her panel could be numerically quantified, I'm afraid that the [Listening] item would be at least above 80. She ran quickly along the corridor, and Duanmu Huai and Huangmao followed closely behind her.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared at the corner of the corridor in front. It was none other than the boy with glasses who had not appeared before. At this moment, his face was pale and he ran towards this side stumblingly. 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 grabbed by Huangmao.

"What happened?"

"No, no, nothing's wrong!"

The bespectacled boy was pale at this moment, and shook his head desperately, but the yellow-haired man obviously didn't intend to listen to his explanation.

"Nothing? You always have this expression when you get into trouble. Something must be wrong! Tell me!"

"…………………"

However, even when questioned by the yellow-haired boy, the boy with glasses still shook his head and remained silent.

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

  chapel?

Hearing Huangmao's roar, Duanmu Huai remembered that this corridor was the one leading to the annex. They had been here yesterday when Meijia took them on a tour, but the chapel was also locked at that time, so Meijia only gave a brief introduction. And now it seems that they are heading to the chapel?

The boy with glasses still said nothing and struggled desperately to escape. To be honest, even Duanmu Huai was very upset to see this cowardly look, and the yellow-haired man was obviously the same. He grabbed the boy with glasses and dragged him to the end of the corridor. Duanmu Huai and Sha Jiuye looked at each other and followed behind the yellow-haired man.

The entire corridor was L-shaped, with the long section connecting to the main building where Duanmu Huai and others lived, and the end after turning the corner connected to the chapel known as the annex. The boy with glasses just ran over from the corner, and now everyone was also walking from that corner.

Duanmu Huai still remembers clearly that the door of the chapel that Meijia showed him and others yesterday was a pure white double door. There were also some exquisite decorations on it, at least it looked like that.

But now, under the reflection of the French windows on both sides of the corridor, the white door is set against the reflection of the rain outside, which looks like snakes crawling on it, which is very strange. Of course, the most important point is that the door that should have been closed is now open.

Although there is only a crack.

"what happened!?"

Seeing this, the yellow-haired man's face changed. He grabbed his glasses and strode towards the chapel. The latter struggled desperately, and the closer he got to the chapel, the harder he struggled. However, the yellow-haired man was not moved at all. He just dragged his glasses to the door of the chapel and pushed it open.

Then, the scene before them was completely revealed to everyone.

There was nothing strange about the chapel itself. It looked similar to the chapels that you would go to for a western wedding. There were long chairs on both sides, and the guests sat on the chairs. The priest stood behind the pulpit in the front, watching the bride and groom walk in, etc.

Well, why are you saying this now?

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

After all... when you opened the door and saw a corpse hanging on the wall of the chapel in front of you, you really had nothing to say, right?

You can’t say today’s weather... Well, the weather isn’t that good.

So Duanmu Huai just stood there, with thoughts running through his mind that had nothing to do with the current situation.

This is no wonder, after all, the scene before my eyes is indeed surreal.

Inside the chapel, the stained glass windows that decorated the front wall were completely shattered, and a strong wind mixed with raindrops rushed into the chapel, and even the people standing at the door could feel the oncoming raindrops and cold air.

Of course, if that were all, the worst that could happen would be just broken glass, but that's not the point.

Looking up, you can see that where the glass is broken, several vines like tree roots have drilled in from the gap. They are raised high, and at the end of the vines, there is a corpse entangled. The latter is tightly bound by the vines, as if it is entangled by a giant python, and even the body has been twisted and deformed, as if it has been torn apart.

That painful face had turned into a terrifying one, and one could even see vine sprouts coming out of its open mouth...

“Boom, boom, boom!!!”

At this moment, thunder sounded, as if foreshadowing the beginning of a horrific murder...Okay, that's enough of the boring complaints.

Duanmu Huai withdrew his thoughts. If it was really a murder case, he would not be afraid. Duanmu Huai wanted to see who had the courage to kill him.

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

Huang Mao was also horrified at the moment, which was no wonder, after all, he saw a corpse, and it was such a corpse. In comparison, Sha Jiuye seemed much calmer. Although she was a little uneasy, she still reached out and pulled the corner of Duanmu Huai's clothes.

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

"Oh, now that you mention it, it seems to be her."

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

What was his name... Never mind, the person is dead, so the name doesn’t matter.

At this time, Huangmao also came to his senses. He grabbed the collar of Yanjing and lifted him up.

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

“Ah, ah, ah… wuwu…”

However, faced with the yellow-haired man's questioning, the boy with glasses just shook his head desperately and refused to speak.

"Let me do it."

Seeing this, Duanmu Huai patted Huangmao's shoulder and motioned him to let him do it.

"Huh? Oh, okay."

At this moment, Huangmao also came to his senses, let go of his glasses and stood aside.

"But I advise you to be careful. This kid is not a good person. Sometimes he would rather be beaten to death than say a word."

"Hahaha, rest assured, leave it to me."

In response to Huangmao's reminder, Duanmu Huai chuckled.

Are you kidding? He is a judge. Interrogation is Duanmu Huai's specialty, not to mention...

Duanmu Huai silently glanced at his panel, then he walked forward, grabbed the man with glasses and lifted him up.

"Alas-----!"

Looking at Duanmu Huai, his glasses trembled even more. His originally gloomy face turned even paler, and he looked like a small animal about to be hunted by a beast.

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

Having said that, Duanmu Huai sneered and stared at his glasses.

"If you dare to hide it... you might be the next one to die, right?"

In fact, Duanmu Huai has a simpler way, which is to use shadow copy, but now... it’s not too late to see the situation first.

“I, I said————!”

Finally, Glasses screamed and shouted.

"Mr. Saeki, she was very interested in what I told her about the rituals of the Shiraho family..."

"So that's why she came with you?"

“Yes, yes…”

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

After hearing the confession from Glasses, the yellow-haired guy next to him started cursing.

"I was saying, you don't look like someone who is interested in the supernatural, so why did you join a supernatural club? After all this time, it turns out that you have taken a fancy to them and used our family rituals as a topic of conversation, right?"

"I, I just want to chat with Ms. Saeki, and I think she knows a lot about this... and I'm also doing this for Ms. Mika..."

"That's right, Mika!"

Huangmao and Sakuya were shocked at this moment. You know, in this situation, the ceremony must have been broken. Although they don’t know how Saeki died, what about Mika?

"I'll call and ask..."

Sha Jiuye hurriedly took out her cell phone, and then her expression changed slightly.

"How could this happen? No signal? It was fine just now..."

"no signal?"

Huangmao also took out his cell phone, took a look at it, and frowned.

"how come?"

"Neither does mine."

Duanmu Huai threw the boy with glasses on the ground, then took out his cell phone and took a look—hmm, the same.

When I checked the weather forecast this morning, there was still signal.

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

The yellow-haired man scratched his head, looking unhappy.

"I'm going to the second floor!"

"I'm going to find Granny Sanchuan. Damn it, after something like this happens, no matter what rules she follows, let Mika out first!"

Sha Jiuye hurriedly turned around and left, running in the direction she came from, and Huangmao followed her.

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

Just now, he only took a quick look and didn't look closely, but now, Duanmu Huai finally saw the body clearly. It was obvious that she was entangled by these vines and then her body was twisted to death. This can be seen from the other party's painful and stiff expression.

Not only that, a big hole was blown open in the girl's abdomen, and the vines could be clearly seen pouring out from it. Perhaps because a long time had passed, the blood had almost dried up. From the wide-open abdomen, it could be seen that the entire vine had drilled in from the bottom of the girl's body, then penetrated her body, and then tore her internal organs and abdominal cavity, and the remaining part drilled out from the girl's wide-open mouth and ears.

Well... judging from her miserable state before her death, she must have been alive when all this was happening.

"What else did she say to you?"

Duanmu Huai retracted his gaze and stared at the boy with glasses, who was now completely paralyzed at the door with fear, not even daring to look over here.

"She, after listening to me, said she wanted to go to the chapel. But I told her that the chapel would only be open on her birthday..."

"Then why are you here?"

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

"Oh."

Duanmu Huai nodded and looked away.

There is nothing to see here. This is not a murder case like a detective, and there is no need to conduct any on-site investigation. Although these vines are suspicious, Duanmu Huai does not feel any breath similar to the Old Ones or the Outer Gods from these vines. They seem to be just ordinary plants...

We’ll talk about that later. In short, let’s go and see what the situation is over there first.
