Chapter 191
Then, under He Tingyao's watchful gaze, the boy patiently cropped the photo into two irregular halves.
He ruthlessly tossed aside a half-irregularly shaped photo of a woman in a white dress, the photo now covered in mud and water.
The rest, he held in his hands as if they were precious treasures.
A tender smile curved his lips as he gently brushed away the mist from the photograph.
Seeing his reaction, He Tingyao's lips curled into a cold sneer, "Just wait and see what happens!" She turned to leave.
"The roses don't need fertilizer for now." The boy's voice was cold, as if it came from the distant night.
He Tingyao stopped and turned around.
She looked at He Tinglan and raised an eyebrow mockingly.
"My dear brother insists on eating vegetarian food, chanting Buddhist scriptures, and practicing Buddhism during this period, is that right?"
"I will not kill any living beings this month." He will not kill any living beings during his birthday month, otherwise Bei Banban would not be alive.
He Tingyao turned and left. Her brother's thought process had always been different from that of normal people since he was a child.
Extremely obsessive in a certain aspect.
For example, he firmly believes that if he does not kill any living beings during his birthday month, he will not suffer retribution in this life, but will leave the retribution for the next life.
The reason he did this was because he had a wish that could only be fulfilled in this lifetime.
It's ridiculous that a madman would believe this.
He Tinglan stared at the photo in her hand for a long time before finally unzipping her windbreaker and putting it in the pocket near her heart.
Then those large, well-defined hands picked up the warm orange rose that had been soaked by the rain.
The fresh roses he planted with his own hands, every time they bloomed for the first time, were always reserved for only one person.
His stepmother was someone he had coveted since childhood, someone he had hidden away for many years, someone he dared not cross the line with.
Jingyuan
The night was deep, and a bunch of extremely bright red roses were placed on the ceiling of the living room.
It is picked when the flowers are in full bloom and preserved using special techniques so that they will not wither for a long time.
This bouquet is exceptionally beautiful compared to ordinary roses, as if it were irrigated with fresh blood, and its fragrance is also much stronger.
The man opened the door with a piece of metal. On the back of his hand holding the metal was a tattoo about five centimeters long.
The tattoo is a pair of outstretched white wings.
He hummed a song casually, the melody light and cheerful, as if this were his home.
He didn't turn on the lights, and after the song ended, he walked around the entire house.
Finally, he sat quietly on the sofa in the living room, waiting for his prey to walk right into his trap.
downstairs
As Jiang Du watched Ling Wu's retreating figure, a sudden sense of panic welled up in his heart.
"lady!"
Ling Wu turned her head, waiting for him to continue, "Have you forgotten something?"
Jiang Du tensed his jaw, hesitated for a moment, and then shook his head.
But his heartbeat grew increasingly rapid.
“Madam, if anything happens, please give me a call, and I will be there for you immediately.”
Ling Wu was not surprised by his sensitivity, she simply nodded and said gently, "Okay."
"Good night, madam."
"good evening."
Jiang Du watched Ling Wu go upstairs, but he didn't get into the car; instead, he stood downstairs the whole time.
His heart was still pounding uncontrollably, especially the moment Ling Wu's figure disappeared, it pounded even harder!
Jiang Du clenched his fist and pressed it to his lips, trying to dispel the anxiety and unease in his heart.
Ling Wu had already stepped out of the elevator and arrived at her private apartment.
As Ling Wu left the elevator, the elevator's display screen went out, plunging into darkness.
The inconspicuous strand of hair she had placed on the doorknob was still there.
It looked as if no one had ever been here before.
Ling Wu looked up and saw that the security camera on the door was still lit up with a red dot, indicating that it was still working normally.
But Lingwu knew that this camera was now only serving one person.
The sound of her high heels clicking on the tiles faded away at the doorway as she stopped.
In an instant, the brightly lit floor was rendered silent and eerie.
The room was pitch black, and the man opened the light, square sheet in his hand.
The thin sheet emitted a faint light, which was precisely the moment when Ling Wu looked up at the camera.
His fingers held the thin slice, his face remained indifferent, but a hint of amazement inevitably appeared in his eyes.
The rumors are true.
It's just a pity...
But after a long time, he still hadn't heard Ling Wu open the door.
While waiting calmly, he also felt a strange sense of curiosity.
Because the image transmitted by the square thin film in his hand was exactly the image of the woman standing motionless in front of the door.
They neither left nor entered.
The next moment, the woman looked up.
Like the brightest moon in the polar night.
Then, those gentle, clear eyes met the camera and curved slightly.
It was as if we were separated by thousands of miles, and when I looked into his eyes, there was a sense of languor and peace mixed with danger.
The next moment, the woman lowered her head, picked up the strand of hair from the door, and dropped it.
Her extremely light hair gently fell to the ground. Just as he was certain that the woman would enter, she looked up again, her red lips slightly parted, and silently uttered a name.
As he held the thin slice, a sudden flutter rose in his heart.
Because he could read the woman's lips; it was his name in this country—
Night crying.
For a moment, the heart that cried in the night beat a little faster.
His gaze darkened, and his eyes became inscrutable as he looked at the square, thin piece in his hand.
The man's fingers traced the square, thin piece of paper, and finally, he chuckled softly.
They're really bold. They spotted him and instead of running away, they dared to provoke him like this.
That makes sense; she couldn't escape even if she wanted to.
The staircases and elevators are blocked off, and they can't be opened in a short time; the only way to escape is to jump from the eighth floor.
Night Cry accepted the square piece of paper and got up.
This was the first time he had ever been prepared to open the door for the "toy" in his hand.
Just as he stood up, the woman outside the door seemed to sense it, and the door opened automatically with a "beep".
The lights were turned on in the next instant!
The night crying was thus blatantly exposed to the light.
This time, and for the first time, he did not sit and wait for his prey to quietly come to him, seemingly as the master.
He inexplicably felt a strange mix of embarrassment and surprise.
Lingwu reached out and removed the fishing line that was blocking her view, just reaching her neck.
She wouldn't walk fast, so the owner who tied the fishing line to her didn't intend to harm her life.
However, when you are not on guard, it can still hurt your skin and cause unbearable pain.
It's a terrible method.
Ye Ti was not surprised by her alertness, and just watched quietly as Ling Wu removed the fishing line.
Then he followed behind Ling Wu, watching her skillfully remove the little trinkets he had left behind while touring the room.
A hint of joy flickered in Ye Ti's eyes, but he remained silent, waiting for Ling Wu to speak first.
But Ling Wu was destined to disappoint him.
After Lingwu finished doing everything, she sat on the sofa, bent over, and rubbed her ankles.
"Aren't you afraid of me?" Ye Ti's voice was very clear, like a summer night breeze, creating a strong contrast.
Lingwu raised her eyes and stared at him intently for a long while.
“You look so much like Yaoyao and the others that I only feel maternal love and no fear.”
Ye Ti didn't realize what was happening, and even after he did, he initially thought he had just hallucinated.
What did you just say?
