C21 (2/2)
After shouting a few times, there was still no reply, which made me even more daring. I rushed to the window on the other side to take a closer look, and upon closer inspection, I realized that all the doors were open. The curtain in the room was blown by the wind, and the whistling sound was quite scary.
Strange! I heard that there are more than a few people in Master Zhao's house. There are dozens of people, some from the family, some from the forest, they work in Master Zhao's house all day long. Why is there not a single person left?
Just when I was wondering what was going on, I pushed open the front door and bravely walked into the room.
There was a table directly across the room, and there were a few rice bowls on the table. There were dishes in the bowls and chopsticks as if someone was eating something, and the food inside was already cold, and many flies were falling everywhere. I felt disgusted, and just as I was about to walk out, I suddenly heard a burst of noise coming from the room next door, which sounded like the ringing of a mobile phone.
”You are my little little apple, no matter how much I love you, it won't be too much …”
Little Apple?
This bell sound was extremely disgusting. He didn't know how many young people's dreams had been ruined by this bell sound.
Cursing in my heart, I tiptoed to the room next door, but when I slowly opened the door, I found that there was no one in the room. The phone was charging on the windowsill while a burnt cigarette was placed next to it.
I was shocked, where did the people here go?
Master Zhao was a very generous boss, and his living level was definitely not something that ordinary villagers could compare to. Even the working class in the city could not match up to him. How could this local emperor, who was usually extravagant, do such a slovenly thing?
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong, but my cell phone was still ringing. I was afraid that someone outside would hear my cell phone ringing and grab me, so I quickly turned off the phone. Just as I was about to put my phone down and leave, my mind suddenly spun.
If there was any information in the phone, or a picture, it might be useful. Thinking of this, I didn't hesitate to grab the phone and put it in my pocket.
After searching for a long time, he was unable to find a single soul, so he could only jump out.
I pulled at the brim of my hat, and in one breath, I returned to the woodshed at Fifth Master Zhao's house. Everyone in the village knew that Fifth Master Zhao's house was in a funeral and no one dared to come over.
She was holding a yellow paper crane with both hands. The crane even had red dots on it made of cinnabar. It looked quite similar to a crane.
Startled, I said, ”Grandmother, things aren't good. There isn't anyone from Master Zhao's family. It seems that something has happened.”
I told her what I had seen and heard, and she was taken aback. She put down the yellow paper and put all the messy things into her bundle.
”Go!” ”Let's hurry up and leave. Something bad has happened.”
I have never seen the Grand Matron so flustered as to ask what was the matter, and the Grand Matron said that there was no time to explain it in detail, and that it would be better for her to move quickly.
On the way out of the village, I hurriedly stopped the matriarch.
”Old granny!” ”Don't just leave when you want to, my dad is still in the hands of the Fifth Master Zhao, and now he has left. If something happens to my dad, what should I do?”
I think grandma has gone crazy. Since she's here to help me, why did she just leave?
The Grand Matriarch saw that my attitude was firm and stopped helplessly. She seemed to be afraid of something and looked around.
The Grand Matriarch pulled me close to the willow tree by the side of the road, which blocked my view of the outside world.
”This is bad!” Master Zhao's family must be dead. ”
Ah?
I ate for a while, but looking at the grandma's expression, I also felt that it was like that. The things in Master Zhao's house were all arranged in a disorderly manner, as if someone was startled and placed there.
