Chapter 55 Ji Lin
Jiang Liyue coaxed Zhou Yulin before going with him to the master bedroom on the third floor.
The master bedroom had a large bed in a European style, and in the center of the bed, Lu Zhuokai's body was indeed lying on its back.
His eyes were also wide open, his chest was cut open, and his internal organs were gone. He was most likely eaten by Hou Wu, who was possessed by a monster.
His death was almost identical to that of Zhu Ming.
So what exactly did Ji Lin do?
Jiang Liyue didn't mind and leaned over to turn Lu Zhuokai's body over to take a look.
But Zhou Yulin grabbed her hand.
She turned her head to look at Zhou Yulin, who was expressionless but clearly stubbornly refused to let her touch Lu Zhuokai's corpse.
If it were anyone else, Jiang Liyue would have kicked them directly.
However, Zhou Yulin's gaze at her was too obsessive and fixated.
The main thing was that he looked at her intently with a pale face, his delicate features making him exceptionally handsome.
Her beauty was too tempting; she chose the man herself, so what could she do but pamper him?
"Okay, okay, I won't touch it for now." Jiang Liyue gave him a playful glare.
If she can't find any clues, she'll still have to touch it anyway.
Since Zhou Yulin couldn't really do anything to her, Jiang Liyue had a somewhat "what can you do to me?" attitude.
She looked again at Lu Zhuokai's body.
Ji Lin didn't want Lu Zhuokai to die last night; she probably wanted to take something from him while he was still alive.
Or is there anything he could have done while he was alive?
“Perhaps this guy has some information that Ji Lin wants to know,” Zhou Yulin offered her a new idea. “She already knew last night, which is why she doesn’t mind him dying.”
“Even Lu Zhuokai himself might not know what use this information is.” Jiang Liyue deduced more from his words.
What more information could Lu Zhuokai possibly know about Blood Moon Villa? He came to Blood Moon Villa with Hou Wu.
This place was still chosen by Hou Wu.
Furthermore, Lu Zhuokai and Hou Wu may have been here beforehand.
Hou Wu also said at the time that he came because he believed Lu Zhuokai could use this trip to pursue the goddess Ji Lin.
This means that Ji Lin originally ignored Lu Zhuokai, but perhaps she saw that Lu Zhuokai had something from the Blood Moon Villa, so she came for that thing.
"Does Lu Zhuokai have a watch on his wrist?" Jiang Liyue suddenly thought of something and looked at his bare wrist.
She remembered that when Lu Zhuokai entered the Blood Moon Villa, he checked the time on his wrist.
And now, there's nothing on his wrist.
The watch had clearly been taken.
Ji Lin took the watch, and it's very likely that she learned its origin from Lu Zhuokai.
Since he no longer had the information Ji Lin wanted, he could certainly die.
Jiang Liyue suddenly realized.
She turned around, hugged Zhou Yulin, and kissed him: "Honey, you're so smart."
Zhou Yulin was taken aback by her enthusiasm, covering his face shyly, still wanting to say something.
Jiang Liyue had already stepped out of his embrace and was excitedly wandering around the master bedroom checking information.
Zhou Yulin was left standing there, staring blankly at her.
[Hahahaha, Zhou Gou was used and then discarded by his wife]
It's already an honor for him to be used by Yueyue.
Zhou Yulin: Love came too fast and went too fast
[Yueyue's favorite thing is still the dungeons; men are just for decoration.]
[Judging from this, there's something seriously wrong with Ji Lin... It seems like she came specifically for the Blood Moon Villa.]
Jiang Liyue was unaware of Zhou Yulin's disappointment.
She rummaged through the closet in the master bedroom and soon found a small wooden box at the very bottom of the wardrobe.
The wooden box was locked, and too lazy to look for the key, she simply placed it under her feet and crushed it with a single stomp.
Inside, a stack of old photos was revealed.
The photos look old, as they were carelessly piled up in a wooden box. The first one is a photo of a family of five.
The family of five easily reminded Jiang Liyue of the original owner of this villa.
These are the photos of the family of five who tragically died in the Blood Moon Villa, as Lu Zhuokai described them.
Standing on either side are a middle-aged couple, the woman holding a baby in her arms, and in the middle are a brother and sister holding hands.
The little boy was about ten years old, and the little girl was only four or five years old, with two cute little braids.
The woman looked very gentle, holding a child who was less than a year old, with a loving smile on her face.
The man had the air of a successful businessman, and was exceptionally refined. On his exposed wrist, he wore a watch.
The photo is quite old, so the style of the watch is not clear, but it is probably an old-fashioned mechanical watch with a few gemstones set in it.
Jiang Liyue hadn't paid close attention to what Lu Zhuokai's watch looked like before, but she intuitively guessed that it was the same one in the photo.
The background of this photo appears to be next to the fountain in front of the Blood Moon Villa.
The villa looked quite new, without the vines that Jiang Liyue had seen climbing all over its walls.
This must have been the scene when they first moved in.
There are other photos nearby, also taken at Blood Moon Villa.
Some of the photos are of a family of five, some are individual photos of the child or parents, and some are group photos of each other.
However, judging from the timeline, the atmosphere in the photos gradually deteriorates.
The woman, who had initially had a gentle smile on her face, looked increasingly unwell. She had heavy dark circles under her eyes and her face was pale, as if she were seriously ill.
The once lively little boy's expression gradually darkened, his lips pursed and his dark eyes fixed on the camera.
The little girl was even younger, so it wasn't obvious, but she was clearly sickly, and her smile had vanished.
Only the man seemed to be in better spirits, staring at the camera with a somewhat excited expression.
These changes all began when they moved into the Blood Moon Villa. The male owner, after acquiring a magical watch, gradually developed a passion for collecting strange collectibles.
This affected the family's mental state until one day, the male head of the household was controlled by the artifact, turning into an out-of-control monster who killed his family members.
Jiang Liyue looked at the photo carefully, and suddenly her gaze fell on the beautiful face of the female owner.
Something flashed through my mind in a split second.
“Honey, don’t you think Ji Lin and this lady of the house look quite alike?” Jiang Liyue turned her head in surprise.
Zhou Yulin stood behind her and casually put his arm around her shoulder when she turned around.
Meeting her bright, sparkling eyes, he nodded without hesitation: "Yes."
Ji Lin's scent was very similar to that of the thief from before; Zhou Yulin had noticed it from the very beginning.
Thinking of this, he frowned slightly with a hint of disgust.
After receiving confirmation from Zhou Yulin, Jiang Liyue compared the woman in the photo and found that she did indeed resemble Ji Lin by about 50-60%.
Blood Moon Villa was built more than ten years ago, and Ji Lin looks to be only about twenty years old.
So she is most likely the four or five-year-old girl in the photo!
Jiang Liyue turned her gaze back to the little girl with braided pigtails in the photo, and indeed she could vaguely find Ji Lin's shadow.
But wasn't it said that all five members of the family in the villa had died?
So Ji Lin somehow escaped this ordeal and, for some reason, returned to the villa where she lived during her childhood.
What is her purpose?
