Chapter 18: You n on Cutting Him At Night?


    But it was very quietst night. I didnt sleep until the middle of the night, but I didnt hear any noise.


    What about your rooms? Lei Ge immediately asked the people in the other two rooms, and the four in the other two rooms shook their heads.


    Didnt hear anything.


    Fang Zhi and the other two of them simply said that they heard the baby cryingst night, and casually mentioned the quarrel between the male and female masters upstairs. As they spoke, the family came down from upstairs. The master held a ck stic bag and went out into the yard to discard the trash, beforeing back in to greet them.


    The masters eyes were a little tired, showing that he didnt have a good sleepst night. After having a simple breakfast, their entire family went back upstairs again.


    After a while, Lin Meng came down. Today, she wore a long blue dress with an easel in her hand, a drawing board on her back, and a few other things. She said to everyone: I want to go out to sketch, does anyone want to go with me?


    A few people looked at each other. In the end, seven people said they wanted to stay. It was still unclear who in the family was the key NPC that affected their survival conditions. Each of the yers had their own little abacus in their hearts, and since no one diedst night, it proved that this ce was rtively safe for now. Going out right now, it was unsure what they would encounter.


    In the face of Lin Mengs invitation, it wasnt like no one could go. In the end, the soldiers were split into two groups of people. Gu Xizhou and his team of three acted together, adding on Dong Chao and Lei Ge, a total of five people agreed to apany Lin Meng.


    Really? Youre all willing to apany me! Thats great! Lin Meng had a face full of surprise, as if she hadnt expected so many people to be willing to apany her out, and she was incredibly happy.


    Seeing Lin Meng struggle to hold the drawing board, a male voice rang out. Let me help you hold that!


    Thank you! Lin Meng smiled sweetly, handing the contents in her hand to Fang Zhi. She smiled at him, her eyes bending into crescents.


    Si Yu: Is he here to fall in love?


    Gu Xizhou:  <i>Xiao Fang is a person who lives in the present</i>.


    Lei Ge:  It seems so.


    Dong Chao: Fuck love, when he dies, he wont even know how he died!


    Fang Zhi took the bucket and drawing board in Lin Mengs hands, and took two steps back to Gu Xizhous side. He saw several people staring at his face, and he subconsciously felt his face, asking: Is there something on my face?


    Several people shook their heads together: No.


    Frustrated by the strange acts of several people, Fang Zhi shook his head. Hed already been here for a day, and still hadnt seen any spiritual incidents. If it werent for Gu Ge, he would have suspected that this was some drama special.


    Following Lin Meng and walking towards the halfway point of the mountainside, several people were alert to possible dangers and idents until they reached their destination. Midway on the mountainside, there was arge reservoir, and no danger on the road they had taken.


    In front of the reservoir, all the reeds were taller than people. The mountain wind blew against the surface of the water, and the leaves rustled.  Were sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our trantions keep getting stolen by aggregators so were going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.


    It was a really clean voice.


    Gu Xizhou gave a scornful nce at the owner of the voice. He still remembered the previous world, when this fake goods used this voice to coax an NPC, and that girl had jumped off the building the very next day.


    Lin Meng heard this, and didnt reveal any sort of strange reaction. She generously took out the paintings in her drawing board and handed them to Si Yu. I dont paint well, but you can casually look at it!


    Saying this, Lin Meng sat on the stool that she had carried with her and started to draft on her drawing paper.


    Gu Xizhou shared a nce with the other four people, and gathered to look at Lin Mengs paintings, hoping to find clues.


    The first painting  Lin Mengs self-portrait.


    The second painting  Lin Meng and her little sister.


    The third painting  Lin Mengs father and her little sister.


    The fourth painting was the one Lin Meng just finished when they had arrived yesterday.


    After carefully looking at the four paintings, Gu Xizhou did not find any useful clues. Right when several people were at a loss, the girl who was drawing looked back at the five of them. My background is done! I want to draw three people inside!


    Lei Ge shook his head in a hurry, his head shaking like a rattle: No, no, no, Im fine!


    Dong Chao: Im a little dizzy


    Then, Dong Chao leaned directly on Lei Ge. Lei Ge was also eager to help and he supported the man with a face full of concern. Are you all right?


    Gu Xizhou:  It wasnt clear on sight, but apparently you were all hired from a theatre troupe.


    Gu Xizhou nced at Lin Meng, and thought about whether to refuse her, but the Si Yu next to him was just a step faster and said to Lin Meng: Then just draw us three ba.


    Lin Meng nodded, and said: Okay, stand closer!


    The three of them stood side by side. Gu Xizhou stood in the middle, and he lowered his voice to ask Si Yu, What exactly are you doing? Those two people couldnt wait to hide, but you still agreed to her? What if this is one of the death conditions?


    Si Yu: Trust me.


    Gu Xizhou:  <i>If I die, you are responsible!</i>


    Fang Zhi:


    Because they didnt see Lin Mengs drawing board, they didnt know the contents of her painting, but they noticed how Lei Ges face became whiter and whiter with thepletion of the painting, while Dong Chaos glee at their misfortune couldnt escape their eyes.


    At about noon, the woman put down her brush after painting thest stroke and nced at her painting with satisfaction. Its done! Look at it, do you like it?


    As she spoke, Gu Xizhou and the two of them took a step forward, and finally saw the full picture of the painting. The background was the reservoir behind them, and the three men in the picture were different from their imagination.


    Gu Xizhou noted the expressions of the people in the painting with some surprise  the three men in the painting were looking straight ahead in anger.


    Satisfied, thank you. Si Yu nodded and said to the woman. After finishing the painting, the woman walked in front, and the five of them were behind. Lei Ge was restless, and there was quite a bit of sympathy in his eyes. He opened his mouth to say a few words offort, but still chose to give up in the end, and shook his head, choosing to walk away.


    Dong Chao nced at them and said dismissively: Looks like someone is going to die tonight.


    Gu Xizhou:  <i>Dont think I dont know what you mean, you think the three of us are going to die! Get lost, even if you die, I wont die!</i>


    After the two men walked in front of them, Gu Xizhou asked Si Yu: What did you find?


    Si Yu: Did you notice our skin color in the painting?


    Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi recalled the painting just now, and Fang Zhi frowned slightly. Theplexion was a little fairer, en


    Si Yu nodded. Its normal to paint my skin white, but when painting the two of you, she didnt change the skin color, which is strange.


    Gu Xizhou:  <i>Dont think I dont know youre trying to use a roundabout way of saying that I look dark!</i>


    Fang Zhi didnt care, and agreed wholeheartedly: Yes, and when she was drawing us, the skin color was almost simr to the one she used in her self-portrait!


    Thats right! Si Yu nced admirably at Fang Zhi, and said softly, As expected of a policeman, his observation skill is pretty good. Having said that, he continued. 3, the number 3, there is also some special meaning.


    Why didnt she draw five people, or four people, why did she insist on exactly three people? At the same time, the master prepared 4 rooms for us yesterday. When we were searching yesterday, you should have noticed that each room has 3 beds, and we have a total of twelve people!


    Gu Xizhou:  Last night, we were the only three who could hear the voices upstairs. Thats because other rooms had either more than 3 or less than 3 people inside.


    Thats right. Si Yu said.


    Before they reached the vi, Gu Xizhou heard a cacophony of noisy sounds. There were some people discussing things, and there was the sound of a woman crying.


    They ran into the vi, leaving Lin Meng to continue walking slowly into the vi alone. Upon entering the vi, they saw the remaining seven people, and two girls were crying.


    There was a ck stic bag on the wooden floor of the living room. It was the bag that the master had taken out this morning, and it was probably because the stic bag was opened, resulting in a thick bloody smell permeating the vi.


    What happened? Lei Ge ran in and asked.


    Inside was a babys body, covered in blood. It had been a long time since the time of death, so the blood had solidified.


    Last night, it wasnt that people didnt die. The one who died was Lin Mengs little sister.


    After you left, all four masters were in their rooms, so we we thought of searching to find out if there were any other clues. We were too rushedst night, and we didnt carefully check some ces, and we ended up finding this in the trash A few people had white faces as they recalled what had happened earlier.


    After Gu Xizhou went out with the other four people to apany Lin Meng, the seven of them stayed in the vi. Yesterday, they had searched the bottom floor, and wanted to search upstairs, but because that family was always upstairs, they didnt dare to go up and search. After searching through the bottom floor again, they went out into the small yard outside the vi to search, and ended up finding this!


    The people who found the body were two girls, and those two girls were absolutely terrified.


    Coincidentally at this time, Lin Meng walked in. Her gaze naturally fell on the stic bag in the living room containing the babys body.


    Several people throughout the hall exhaled a cold breath, and the air almost seemed to still.


    Lin Mengs gaze fell on the stic bag, then she immediately recovered her gaze. Her face was a little cold, but she didnt speak. She opened the refrigerator and turned to ask a few people what they wanted to eat.


    Recalling how much Lin Meng cared for her little sister yesterday, Gu Xizhou couldnt help but say: Hey, your little sister is dead.


    Hearing Gu Xizhous question, the people around him immediately stared at him. They saw Lin Mengsplexion turn grey and furious. The woman mmed the refrigerator door and stared coldly at Gu Xizhou.


    Lei Ge: ??? <i>Are you sick?! If youre sick, can you treat it?! If you mess with the NPC, youre going to die a terrible death!</i>


    Just when they all thought Lin Meng was about to cut Gu Xizhou apart, the woman suddenly calmed down and said faintly: She is not my little sister.


    Lei Ge: ??? <i>Wait, Big Sister, are you also sick, or do you n on cutting him at night?</i>


    soya: just in case anyone is wondering, Lei Ge is actually Brother Lei, so his name isnt Lei Ge. Its like how Ma Yu is called Ma Ge, and Gu Xizhou is called Gu Ge, except we dont know Lei Ges real name.
