Spirit In Dark Night - C47

“Ruze, what’s wrong?” I screamed.

This happened in an instant. A few minutes ago, he was fine, but why did he become like this now?

Ruze didn’t react at all, it was as if he simply couldn’t hear my voice, my call.

I can’t believe he could be like this under my nose.

I seemed to have thought of something and hastily tried to test his breathing. This made me even more panicked.

He was no longer breathing.

In other words, Ruze is dead, and under my nose at that.

However, this seemed impossible.

He just lay down on the bed and tried to sleep.

But why did he die just from sleeping?

My mind was preoccupied with this possibility. No, it shouldn’t be.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but I just stood there in a daze.

Until someone whispered to me, “Eldest Miss, it’s time for you to go back. The yin energy here is too dense, it’s not suitable for you to stay here. Why don’t you go back first? ”

It was the voice of the He Bo!

I blankly looked at him and actually asked foolishly, “He Bo, why are you here? What happened? ”

But after asking, I realized how stupid my question was.

He clearly knew what it meant for the He Bo to appear.

In the past few times, he was the one who took care of the aftermath of my sisters’ deaths, so naturally, he came this time to take care of Ruze’s affairs.

If that was the case, then it looked like Ruze had truly died.

“Eldest Miss, the Fifth Young Master is dead. I’m here to bury him, you should just leave for now!”

“Where are you going to bury him?”

This is also my greatest concern. In the past few times, my sisters would be buried wherever they died.

I think, Ruze died in my own bed, so how does He Bo plan to deal with this?

The He Bo was not surprised at all, he only said indifferently, “The Fifth Young Master died in his own room, so according to tradition, he had to be buried in this room.”

“What?” Although I was prepared for this, I was still surprised.

“This is Young Master Rulai’s intention. I’m just following orders. ”

Tathagata again!

However, from the words that Tathagata had said to Ruze and the other two earlier on, it seemed like they had already known that such an outcome would occur.

Even the words Ruze said to me back then were so strange, as though he was making his final farewell.

“He Bo, can you not bury Ruze in the house?”

I asked tentatively. Although I knew that the possibility of him agreeing wasn’t high, I was still unwilling to accept it.

He Bo glanced at me, and said, “I clearly know that it’s impossible, so why must you say it out loud? These are realities that cannot be changed. ”

When He Bo finished speaking, he acted as if I was an unnecessary person and didn’t even look at me.

I don’t know how I got back to my room.

The feeling of watching his own family die in front of him while he was powerless. And the most important thing is that I can’t even take responsibility for his affairs.

What I didn’t expect, however, was that my brother’s death began to take on a much longer form.

For example, when Gentle Snow saw me the next day, she asked me in a different tone, “I heard that your little brother died in front of you. Are you the only one here?”

These words were simply said.

It was as if I was the real culprit behind his death.

Grandma Hao also looked at me strangely and said, “How did Mei Ruze’s death happen so coincidentally with you here?”

There was also some doubt in his words.

I was on the verge of collapse. Not only did I witness my brother’s tragic death with my own eyes, but I also had to endure such a gaze of suspicion.

What can I say?

Do you want to explain it to them?

It would be too far-fetched for me to do that.

In short, I know myself that I have a clear conscience.

I am especially afraid of the night now, because every time it is the dead of night, I will feel lonely and even think of my dead family members.

Yes, I am alone now. My parents and four sister-in-law have left.

At the same time, however, I wondered why I had not received the letter this time.

Previously, they would receive a letter before dying, but this time was an exception.

I’ve been thinking about these things all night, and it makes me feel a bit out of sorts.

The next morning, Xier anxiously pushed open the door and said to me, “Oh no, young miss, a few days ago I picked up a letter from the floor near the door. It was for you, but you were not there at the time, so I placed it in my room. I just got it for you right away. ”

Xier seemed to be a little nervous, afraid that I would blame her.

My heart sank. Could it be a letter for my life?

I hastily grabbed the letter and opened it with trembling hands. As expected, the things that I was worried about were placed before me. The contents of the letter were as such.

Now, it was finally Ruze’s turn. He had died in front of his own sister Mei Ruxue, and he died with boundless confusion. He died from the Cloth Doll’s curse.

Cloth Doll?

In my mind, the image of the Cloth Doll that Tathagata had torn to pieces appeared instantly. So the reason why my brother died was because of that Cloth Doll?

I felt a sense of fear and strangeness wrap around me in an instant.

Looks like there was something wrong with that Cloth Doll.

I still have the piece of paper with my name on it that fell out from the Cloth Doll’s body.

Was there a connection?

Or could it be that he was actually a cursed Cloth Doll?

Who was the mastermind behind all this?

My head was in a mess.

Xier was obviously a little nervous, “Young miss, is this letter very important? Has it delayed your business? It was really my fault, I was careless at the time and forgot to tell you when I put it in my room. ”

I only felt that this was an imposing manner. If this letter had immediately reached me, maybe when I saw the words Cloth Doll, I would have been especially careful of that Cloth Doll. Maybe I could have thought of something.

But now it was all over. It had long since become a foregone conclusion.

Due to Xier’s carelessness, I missed my only chance.

I couldn’t help but get angry, “Xier, how can you be so careless? Do you know that this is a matter that concerns one’s life and death? You truly disappoint me, you are simply a pig’s brain. ”

I found that I had said all sorts of nasty things. Although I didn’t curse at her, this was already the worst thing that could happen to me.

Xier stared at me blankly with tears in her eyes, “Eldest Miss, if scolding me can vent your anger, then scold me well! I truly have no brains at all. For you to be this angry, it is all my fault. I deserve to die. ”

Xier said as she continuously slapped herself in the face.

However, I didn’t stop her. I just coldly watched as she abused herself.

In the end, I felt a little dazzled before I impatiently said, “Alright, stop being here and let me be annoyed. Hurry up and leave.”

Xier was stunned for a moment, then left in disappointment.

It seemed to me a small episode, and I didn’t take it to heart.

But I never thought that Xier would actually commit suicide three days later.

When I heard the news, I was scared out of my wits.

Xier had committed suicide by jumping off a building. She had jumped down from the top floor of the villa, and then fell down with her skin and flesh ripped apart.

I was dumbfounded.

When I saw Xier’s corpse, I don’t know if it was an illusion, but I actually saw her quickly open her eyes and smile at me.

I just feel goosebumps all over my body.

“Ah!” I cried out in fright and immediately lost consciousness.

Xier was immediately buried, but when I woke up, no one told me where she was buried.

My heart is filled with guilt. Could it be that Xier committed suicide because of what I said to her?

I don’t know who buried Xier after I fainted.

If that’s the reason, then I deserve to die.

Because my unintentional act had actually killed a young life.

While I was blaming myself, in the depths of the courtyard, there was a figure who was deep in thought with a frown. He muttered to himself, “It seems that I have to find another helper.”

However, apart from my heartbroken state, no one else could see any signs of sadness.

Right now, the people I see in this villa, other than Grandma Hao, Tathagata, and the warmth, there are also three other servants. However, I can’t even call out their names, and that’s right, there’s also a Dr. Zhou.

There are only six people left, but there are only a few in such a big villa. When I think about such a big yet strange villa, I can’t help but tremble in fear.

Tathagata immediately gave me the services of one of the three servants, a girl in her twenties named Xiao Tian.

I didn’t have any special feelings towards Xiao Tian, the only thing I felt special about her was her childish face.

Her real age was twenty, but she looked like a teenager when she talked.

She was rather quiet and did not like to talk, unless she was asked a question.

“If you have anything to do in the future, just let Lil ‘Tian do it.” Tathagata said indifferently.

“I know.” I didn’t say much, I just said as a matter of fact.

Tathagata gave me a deep look. I could actually see a trace of heartache in his eyes. Was I mistaken?

As the date Grandma Hao told me to hold the wedding ceremony drew closer and closer, I realized that I was starting to feel nervous.

I really want to escape from this marriage that Grandma Hao arranged for me. I don’t know if it is a wedding or not, but I have to die.

I am not afraid of dying. I just feel that I have not figured out the truth of the matter. To die like this, perhaps it is a little too hasty.
