Chapter 633: The Crime Does Not Punish Death
In the empty hall, it was so quiet that only the laughter of the little girl and the sound of the chickens pecking at rice could be heard. Apart from that, there was no sound at all. High above the head, the crystal chandelier was still emitting a dazzling light, and the central air conditioner was running 24 hours a day.
But Jingxuan and the others felt cold from head to toe, with all the hair on their bodies standing up.
"ah!"
Master Qi screamed in fright. Several dancers turned around and looked at Master Qi with pale faces. Master Qi pointed with trembling fingers in the direction where the little girl was walking. It was the VIP lounge tea room on the first floor. The tea room was decorated in Chinese style. In the red carved partition, there stood a girl with long hair and bangs at her eyebrows.
The girl was not very old. She was wearing a black tweed skirt, long sleeves, and a white shirt with the collar turned up. Her face was pale and bloodless, but that was fine. The key point was that the girl looked lifeless, almost like a female ghost!
The lifeless pair of eyes slowly turned around and stood in the quaint tea room, causing Jingxuan and the others to scream and shout.
The little ghost girl frowned, lowered her head, looked at An Ran who was sitting on the red wooden Zen chair, and whispered, "These people are too noisy."
"Yes, a little." An Ran leaned on the armrest of the wooden Zen chair, looked up, and said to Xiao Bohe, "But it's not a capital crime."
She smiled, stood up, and walked out of the quaint teahouse. She looked at Jingxuan and the others who were frightened out of their wits, and looked at each face one by one. When she didn't see any trace of Chen Chaofa, she waved her hand and led Xiao Mint to chase the doll.
The baby was pushing a walker and jiggling his little feet. He had already walked from the tea room to the other end of the hall. The good thing about this place was that it was big. It was much more fun than playing on the ice. The baby was having a lot of fun.
"Who is this person?"
Jingxuan and the others huddled together, looking at the backs of Anran and Xiao Bohe. They felt their scalps tingling, as if they had escaped death. They were covered in cold sweats.
The dancers around her had the same feeling. The veins on their foreheads were throbbing. They huddled together and looked at these strange people in the huge hotel lobby. They really wanted to turn around and run away.
They and Master Qi waited for a long time, but nothing strange happened. A few of them became bolder, and with a few more people getting off the elevator, the group went to the kitchen together.
On the way, Jingxuan was still muttering, "Didn't they say that the people from Hexi occupied our rich man? Why didn't I see any thugs?"
"I heard they all went to the buildings across the street." Someone spoke up and said to Jingxuan, "So from now on, this rich man's world will belong to us?"
Someone else started laughing, holding a chicken leg that they had taken out of the frozen meat storage, and turned on the fire to fry it. Everyone had a happy look on their face, just like it was New Year's Day. They passed the food around, feeling that this free life was right before their eyes.
Jingxuan and the others were silent because they were frightened by Little Bohe and the doll. So they thought that maybe the things in Rich Man were not as happy as everyone had expected.
The people here have been living in comfort for too long. They don't even care about the extra green vines on the corridor. They just continue to be happy as usual.
