Chapter 22 Master, please listen to my explanation!
A cool feeling came from behind.
Almost at the same time! When the sound of wind appeared behind him, Jian Yue immediately rolled to the side. A sharp wind sound passed by his ears, and a red figure fell on the heavy shelf, making a huge noise!
Fortunately, the shelf was leaning against the wall, otherwise it would have collapsed with such a blow.
The flashlight in Jian Yue's hand almost fell, but there was a low cabinet on the other side of the shelf that supported him and prevented him from falling directly to the ground. Otherwise, he suspected that he might not be able to get up after being thrown so hard.
Turn around.
Jian Yue pointed the flashlight behind him.
After looking carefully, I finally saw clearly what was rushing towards me from behind. Then, I could see a red figure in the light of the flashlight. The ghost girl had long nails and her hair was almost standing up because of her heavy resentment. If her face was at least clean when I saw her some time ago, now her eyes were bloodshot.
This diary seemed to have touched a switch in her.
The moment the box was opened, she was already angry.
Jian Yue blurted out, surprised: "Why are you here? Aren't you in the ancestral hall?"
The female ghost did not answer him. Her robe had been soaked into a patch of red. She stared at the diary in Jian Yue's hand and said in a grim voice, "Where are you... where are you... give him to me...!"
Jian Yue thought that this diary probably had Ji Feng's scent, so she chose this diary.
Moreover, judging from the current situation, her sanity seemed to be even worse, and she was completely unable to communicate. This substantial murderous intent had almost become a reality.
Almost at the moment the female ghost spoke.
The system panel popped up:
Trigger the limited-time mission [Diary Defense]
Mission details: How can you give away the diary that Mr. Shen has worked so hard to keep privately to others? Please inherit his last wish and defend the diary to the death!
Mission countdown: 5 minutes
Mission Reward: Repair Manual for Recorder
Jian Yue paused when he was about to throw the diary to the female ghost.
Depend on! !
This reward is too tempting!!
The female ghost approached step by step not far away, and Jian Yue's attention was pulled back. He tried to delay time and smiled: "Look, I came to find this diary just to help you find him. With this diary, I can help you find him better, right? There is no conflict of interest between us, and I didn't break my promise last time, right?"
He tried to convince people with reason.
The female ghost said angrily: "He is not here, I can't find him, give him to me!"
She pounced directly at him, and Jian Yue quickly slid to the side and narrowly avoided the attack. When he turned around, he found that the ghost girl's nails were deeply embedded in the wooden board. It was conceivable that if this attack hit him, he would be killed immediately.
System panel countdown: [4 minutes and 30 seconds]
As Jian Yue stepped back, the ghost girl's hand was stuck on the table, but he knew that this would not delay him for long. She was very fast, and even if he ran, he would be caught by her halfway.
There was no light in the closed room, and the only flashlight was not very aggressive.
Cold sweat soaked up Jian Yue's back.
“Boom!”
With a loud bang, the ghost girl's hand was pulled out from the table. The place where she was standing had turned into a pool of blood. She turned around and looked at Jian Yue with bloodshot eyes, and she was about to pounce on him!
"Wait!" Jian Yue stretched out his hand: "Do you want this diary?"
The ghost girl's voice was eerie: "Give it to me... I want to find him..."
Jian Yue nodded and said, "Give it to you, okay."
The audience in the live broadcast room also began to get excited:
"Ah, are you crazy? Are you really going to give it to me?"
"Damn it, this is my newbie nightmare."
“Even though I was mentally prepared, I was still shocked.”
"Ahhh I'm more nervous than him now!"
The female ghost seemed to have not expected that he would actually give it to her, and she heard Jian Yue say: "I just want to ask you one thing. I'm giving you this diary. Can you understand what's written on it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the room fell silent for a moment, and the audience in the live broadcast room also fell silent.
I guess there is no one else except Jian Yue who can think of such a thing at this time.
System panel countdown: [3 minutes and 20 seconds]
"I don't mean to say that you are illiterate. Please listen to my explanation." Jian Yue smiled at her and held up the diary in his hand. "It's mainly this diary. The paper is very thin. I saw your hand was bleeding just now. How can you turn the pages like this? Otherwise, how about I read to you? Anyway, my life is in your hands. You don't have to worry about me running away, right?"
The female ghost suddenly stopped, and the man who was on the edge of danger looked down at his hands and fell into a state of confusion.
Jian Yue breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that there was still hope of delaying the time. He moved calmly up the stairs and said, "Then let's put it this way. I'll read it to you now."
He turned to the first page.
He had read the above contents once before, so he knew them by heart. He said:
"February 3, 1752
Sunny weather
I received a mission from the organization to go to Wanfu Village. I heard that this village is well-known for its longevity. There are even elderly people in the village who can live for one or two hundred years..."
His voice was calm and his tone was gentle as he read the contents of the diary. The ghost girl's originally frantic behavior seemed to suddenly calm down. Jian Yue was delighted and continued to read as he walked up the stairs:
"February 4, 1753
Weather
Xiaoyue doesn't quite agree with me going to Wanfu Village, she said that place is very dangerous..."
As soon as Jian Yue read this, the originally calm female ghost's face suddenly changed. Red blood flowed from her eyes and she suddenly pounced towards Jian Yue. Jian Yue, who was standing in the middle of the stairs, cursed under his breath, and when he saw that the sharp hand was about to break his wrist, he suddenly smashed the flashlight downwards!
"Bang!"
With a dull thud, the female ghost lost her balance on the stairs and fell down several steps.
The light in the entire room turned dark as the flashlight fell down. Jian Yue didn't dare to waste time and ran up the stairs. A huge muffled sound came from behind. The female ghost's movements were so strong that the whole staircase was shaking.
Jian Yue finally saw the light above his head.
Tiantian was lying at the foot of the stairs, looking inside with some confusion and worry. When she saw Jian Yue, she said in surprise, "Brother!"
Jian Yue climbed up swiftly, and when he was about to come out, a strong force grabbed his ankle and started to pull him down!
Just when it was about to fall.
The other hand grabbed Jian Yue's wrist. Tiantian was about to fall down, but she was holding on to the floor outside tightly: "Butler Wang!"
With the help of Tiantian's strength, Jian Yue finally climbed up. He simply closed the cover of the floor with his backhand. After doing all this, he lay on the ground beside him and gasped violently.
Tiantian was also very scared: "Butler Wang, what happened? Why did you suddenly become silent down there just now?"
Jian Yue had not yet completely recovered from the tense atmosphere. He patted his heart and panted, "I, I met that female ghost again down there. I found a diary. She wanted to kill me. I could only think of a way to calm her down and get up first..."
Tiantian was shocked and said, "Brother, you even dare to fool her?!"
Jian Yue sat on the ground and said, "How can this be a scam? I can give her the diary, but she should at least wait for me to finish reading it first. This is just a temporary measure. As the saying goes, people's reputations are good and bad. What happened before is what happened before, and what happens now is..."
He suddenly stopped talking in the middle of his words.
Tiantian wondered why he didn't continue, so she followed Jian Yue's gaze and looked behind her. She saw that the wooden floor was stained red with blood, and then completely decayed and melted. A red figure slowly walked out from it!!!
Eyes met.
When she met those blood-red eyes, Tiantian was completely frightened. She turned her head stiffly to look at Jian Yue, and forced out a smile that was uglier than crying: "Butler Wang, she seems to be coming up, what should we do?"
Jian Yue was surprisingly much calmer. He coughed lightly, smiled at the two women, took a deep breath and said loudly, "What else can we do? Why are you standing there? Take the cards and run!!"
…
Study in the old house
A flock of birds suddenly flew up from the backyard of the house.
Shen Yushu, who was sitting in the study, glanced outside and frowned.
The computer on the table was lighting up the video call, and the person inside said with a smile: "Hearing what you said, it seems that this housekeeper is really good to you. Anyway, you haven't had anyone by your side for so many years, and it's rare to find someone who catches your eye. Why don't you keep him? When your mother is well, you can take him back to City A and settle the matter."
Shen Yushu retracted his gaze from the window and frowned, "I have never thought about having an office romance with my subordinates. It would be disgraceful if it got out."
The person on the video chat said, "Once she becomes your wife, she won't be your subordinate anymore. I think you should stop thinking about rejecting her. If she gets rejected by you too many times, she'll get sad and stop liking you. You won't have anywhere to cry then."
Shen Yushu's eyes were filled with a bit of coldness and indifference. He raised his knife-like chin in a noble and cold manner and said, "Ha!"
Foolish mortals!
He didn't even know how much Butler Wang stuck to him!
Just as I was about to speak——
Suddenly there was a loud "thump" sound outside.
The sound was not small, it could even be considered very eye-catching, and one could even faintly hear some wailing. Shen Yushu's words were interrupted, he glanced sideways and listened, he felt that it seemed somewhat familiar.
Shen Yushu stood up and walked outside the study, and saw a scene that made his eyes widen!
I saw Jian Yue and a girl falling together on the lawn outside the corridor, both of them were in disarray. After hearing the sound of the study door, Jian Yue glanced over with a bit of surprise and uncertainty on his face.
It's over.
How did the card teleport here? !
Seeing Shen Yushu's face turn pale, Jian Yue quickly said, "Master, please listen to my explanation..."
"Butler Wang..."
Shen Yushu interrupted him directly and forcefully, and the man's handsome and cold profile was rarely tinged with disbelief.
Jian Yue thought he was going to say that he was slacking off during work hours. He was just thinking about how to explain it so that the young master would believe that he was indeed sorting things in the warehouse diligently just now.
Then he saw the tall and handsome Shen Yushu standing in the corridor, like a husband who caught an adulterer. He pointed at him with shaking hands and said, "How dare you cheat on me, damn it, what do you think of me?!"
