Spirit In Dark Night - C26

Thus, I chose a time for lunch because this was the time when everyone was at their most complete.

As we all sat down at the table, I began to say to them, “Now I have a very important thing to tell you. There may be danger in the next few days, and everyone must be on their guard. Do not let your guard down.”

When I finished, I realized that no one had any reaction at all.

The problem, however, is that this is all I can say to warn you, and the letter is too bizarre to say.

I saw that my brothers and sisters seemed to be interested only in the food on the table, and what I was saying was totally inaudible to me.

I was very disappointed. Why didn’t they believe what I said?

At this time, Grandma Hao came close to me and said, “Just mind your own business, don’t bring these matters up on the stage.”

Grandma Hao’s words seemed to carry a sense of threat, causing me to instinctively feel a little disgusted upon hearing it.

The moment my eyes met Grandma Hao’s, I was shocked.

Her eyes were full of ferocity, making people shiver all over at the sight of it.

It ended in failure.

Because no one wants to believe me, no one even thinks it’s the same thing.

At this moment, Tathagata is at my school.

Last time, he had to leave temporarily because of an accident, but now, he found Zhu Rende once again.

Seeing Tathagata visit again, Zhu Deren was somewhat surprised. However, most of them were dodging.

“Where’s Mei Ruxue’s body? I’m taking it now. ”

In the end, he pretended to be calm and said, “I’m really sorry. Since you didn’t come here for a few days, I thought you had tacitly agreed to my suggestion. Thus, I had already buried Mei Ruxue in the grave we had asked for her to be buried the day before yesterday.”

Tathagata’s piercing gaze directly landed on Zhu Deren, “Are you speaking the truth?”

Zhu Deren seemed to have done something shameful as he did not dare to look Tathagata in the eye, “It’s true, because Mei Ruxue’s corpse has already started to rot. I had no choice but to quickly bury him.”

“Then take me to the tomb right now. I want to take away her corpse. I have to!”

Tathagata’s words didn’t leave any room for negotiation, but at this time, Zhu Deren had also calmed down.

He became very calm. “If that’s the case, then we really can’t do it. The dead are big, and since people have already been buried, why can’t we just let her rest in peace?”

Tathagata roared and stuck his head in front of Zhu Deren. When he raised his head and saw Tathagata’s appearance, his expression immediately changed.

“You, what happened to you?”

Zhu Rende seemed to be unable to say anything, and was forced to swallow his words.

“Are you going to bring me or not?” Tathagata said.

Zhu Rende no longer had the indifference from before, the only thing remaining was panic.

“Alright, I’ll take you there, but can you calm down first?”

Zhu Deren cautiously said, as he secretly looked at Tathagata.

Tathagata then wiped his face before saying, “Then let’s hurry up and go! Otherwise it’s too late. ”

When Zhu Deren saw that Tathagata had returned to his original state, he let out a sigh of relief. He no longer dared to be slow and hurriedly brought Tathagata to a place.

When Tathagata saw this massive and imposing cemetery appear before him, he was momentarily shocked.

The tombstone was very particular. It was in the shape of an umbrella. Tathagata’s gaze never left the tombstone.

“How can this be? “Seems like I was still a step too late.”

Zhu Deren trembled a little. Seeing this unfathomable man, in addition to this strange tombstone, he felt as if he was about to collapse.

“Sir, may I leave now?”

However, Tathagata didn’t want to let him go. “Listen, tell me the truth. Who made you make this tombstone into an umbrella?”

Zhu Deren closed his eyes in despair, thinking to himself, what should have come has finally arrived. It seemed that he couldn’t avoid it.

Seeing Zhu Rende’s expression, Tathagata became even more disdainful. “If you don’t explain it, then today, there will be another grave here.”

Zhu Rende almost peed his pants when he heard Tathagata’s words.

He didn’t dare to keep it a secret anymore, so he made it clear.

“Alright, I’ll tell you right now, someone actually sponsored five million on this tombstone. After the incident with Mei Ruxue, someone came to find me, saying that he can sponsor me for five million, but that I must follow his request to make this tombstone. When I heard that it would cost five million, I immediately opened my eyes wide.

Zhu Deren’s face alternated between red and white. Obviously, saying all this was the same as admitting that he was an insatiable person.

Tathagata frowned as he looked contemptuously at the greedy head of the Education Bureau. However, what he was truly worried about was not this.

It seemed like this Zhu Deren did not know the truth, and only wanted to occupy a few million.

Tathagata snorted and said, “What does the person who came to find you look like? “Tell me in detail.”

Zhu Rende immediately thought back to the time, “That person looked to be around 30 years of age, and dressed strangely, as if he was wearing clothes that only ancient people would wear, and his hair was very long, like the braids of the Qing Dynasty. At that time, I was still thinking, how could there be such a weird person?”

“Alright, you can leave now. Remember, don’t tell anyone about this, or else you won’t be able to keep your little life.”

When Zhu Deren heard that he could leave now, what was most important was that the money, the several million dollars, had not been asked for his return yet. He was immediately overjoyed again.

“Yes, I will leave immediately. I will absolutely not tell anyone. You can rest easy.”

After Zhu Deren finished speaking, he immediately disappeared without a trace.

Tathagata’s eyes were sharp as he stared at the words on the tombstone. The words were written in red and looked extremely eye-catching.

There were only a few words written on the tombstone: Mei Ruxue’s Tomb.

There was nothing special about that.

However, the thing that troubled Tathagata the most was the shape of the tombstone.

Umbrella.

Since ancient times, no one had ever made a tombstone into an umbrella.

Tathagata gently caressed the tombstone, his heart becoming incomparably heavy.

It was just that now that it had become a reality, his desire to take Mei Ruxue’s corpse had finally been shattered.

It wasn’t because Tathagata couldn’t get the corpse out, but because he knew what this umbrella-shaped tombstone represented, and what it would bring her if he took her body away.

Thus, he did not dare to, nor did he dare to take the risk.

“I didn’t expect you to make a move so quickly. Seems like I have indeed underestimated you, but let me tell you, don’t be happy too early, I can tell you clearly, in a month’s time, I will be marrying Mei Ruxue.”

Tathagata had deliberately emphasized the word marriage, as if he was certain that this guy was in the dark. He could clearly hear everything he said.

Tathagata took a deep look at the tombstone before leaving.

After he left, a person walked out from the bushes. There was a deep anger on his face as he glared at Tathagata’s departing figure. The corner of his mouth slightly curled up, as if he found it strange.

“Very well, you’ve come to challenge me. Didn’t you say you were going to get married? I really want to see, will Mei Ruxue willingly marry you? ”

Tathagata returned to the villa, his mood sullen.

When I saw Tathagata enter Grandma Hao’s room, I hastily followed. These two were originally in the same group. I’ve seen them last time, so I don’t know what shady business they have this time.

I lightly leaned on Grandma Hao’s room door and carefully listened for any movements inside.

Fortunately, he could hear her clearly.

“Grandma Hao, things have changed a bit, so we have to move fast.”

“You went to Mei Ruxue’s school?”

“Yes, but she has already been buried. He won the first step, so I absolutely cannot lose the second step.”

“Do you mean to say that the wedding should be brought forward?”

“Yes, we have to make it in advance, so we don’t have much time left. Hurry up and prepare for the rest of the things. Right now, only three people have died, and three more.” Do you know what happens next? ”

I was scared to the point that I broke out in a cold sweat. Looks like my parents’ deaths and Icy’s death were all caused by them.

Then, they said that three more people would die, and my brothers and sisters would be killed by them again.

I was scared, wasn’t it?

Even though I knew everything, I realized that I didn’t have the power to stop them. Maybe all the servants in this villa were with them, other than Xiao Wen.

I didn’t dare to stay any longer, not because I was afraid, but because I didn’t want to alarm them. If they found out that I already knew their tricks, they would be wary of me.

I tried to calm myself down so I could gain time and opportunity.

So I ran away from the scene, and when I got back to my room, I couldn’t calm down.

“Eldest Miss, why are you so panicked? Has something happened? ”

When Xiao Wen’s words were suddenly heard, I was shocked once again.

“It’s you, Xiao Wen. You scared me to death, I thought you were.”

I anxiously stopped speaking, but Xiao Wen noticed that something was amiss.
