Chapter 31
How was it discovered?
Where was it exposed?
Xue Yu's face, which was pink in the bathroom, turned pale at this moment. His heart was pounding and he blinked instinctively.
What if this is a test, and he doesn't admit it, and pretends he didn't hear it, then...
The laughing voice that had caused him panic suddenly came into his ears: "If you hadn't been so slow, I would have believed that I was overthinking it."
Xue Yu suddenly raised his eyelashes and looked into those deep, bottomless dark eyes. He swallowed hard and dryly, and said in a small voice: "How did you find out?"
He looked like a rabbit that had fallen into a trap and was extremely upset, which made Qi Chen smile. He looked at him with a half-smile: "Just now at the kitchen door, you were so scared that your shoulders shook."
The body's instinctive reaction is difficult to conceal.
Seeing Xue Yu pursing his lips and looking pale, and seeing him even holding his breath, Qi Chen understood how Song Raoxun's false aloofness was broken. He curled the corners of his lips again and whispered, "Little widow, I'll take you to a place."
Xue Yu had been stunned by this sudden accident. The system was still in standby mode at night and could not communicate with him.
He could only follow Qi Chen.
It was also at this moment that he realized that there was a small attic in the old house.
The attic door was tightly closed, with scratches on it as if they were caused by the claws of an unknown creature. There was an indistinguishable black mass under the crack of the door. Xue Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and stared intently.
...seems to be the hair of something.
“Bang!!!”
A black mark suddenly appeared on a transparent frame on the door. The black mark slid downwards and made a sharp, piercing sound. Then, the black mark disappeared and something that looked like a face was replaced. The face was tightly attached to the glass, with its eye sockets bursting and its upper and lower lips separated, revealing exaggerated gums.
The eye was staring at Xue Yu intently, with a sad emotion.
"What do you think that is?"
Xue Yu was so frightened that his expression was a little dazed, and his beautiful eyes stopped blinking: "...What?"
When Xue Yu was wondering what kind of creature it was, he heard Qi Chen say, "It's a human."
The man spoke in a soft and tender voice, explaining word by word: "Your father did a good thing. The fire was so big, how could only one person die?"
Xue Yu understood the hidden meaning in his words.
There was more than one victim in that deliberate arson.
So the person imprisoned inside is... another victim?
How did it become like this?
Qi Chen seemed to be able to read his mind, and laughed lazily, as if talking about something that had nothing to do with him: "This man was at the age of taking the college entrance examination, and his whole family was counting on him to make a name for himself, but he was burned to death before he could do so. His mother died of grief, and his younger sister was seriously ill and had no one to take care of her, so she died within a few days."
"This person's resentment is too deep to be reincarnated. The charlatan is afraid that he will hurt others, so he is temporarily locked up here."
Sweat appeared on Xue Yu's forehead, sticking to his soft hair. After being stared at by that inhuman face for a long time, his heart was terrified and he couldn't help but slow down his breathing.
