Chapter 41
"What is it?"
Lin Sheng narrowed his eyes and asked doubtfully.
Li Ke's throat tightened, and a strange thought came to his mind. After hesitating for a long time, he opened his mouth to express his concerns.
"Master, tell me, are there monsters in this world? If he's not possessed by a ghost, then could it be that a monster ate my boyfriend and then transformed into his appearance and lived with me?"
Lin Sheng was a little speechless at this moment. He glanced at Li Ke lazily and said in a flat tone,
"Young man, read fewer novels and watch fewer TV dramas. They're bad for your brain. What's become of you?"
[The great master's mouth is as poisonous as ever. I guess you don't have the habit of licking your lips. I hope you don't poison my dear great master to death one day.]
【He's very good at arguing with people. 】
The Master's look of disdain pokes me in the heart. I want to be the Master's loyal supporter, to be the Master's bootlicker. Woof woof!
Li Ke panicked. Seeing that Lin Sheng didn't believe her at all, her face flushed. She didn't know what to say next. She just kept saying pitifully:
"Master, what I said is true, please believe me."
Lin Sheng didn't want to continue talking nonsense with her, and the audience in the live broadcast room didn't have the patience to waste time with her anymore, and they all said they wanted to kick her out and replace her with someone else.
"Just tell me what you want to calculate, don't waste your time talking about other things."
Li Ke was struggling in his heart and spoke with an embarrassed look on his face.
"But I suspect my best friend and boyfriend are both missing, and the man I'm living with now isn't my real boyfriend. Can I...can I have a fortune teller?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Sheng raised his hand without saying a word, ready to kick Li Ke out.
"No, no, no, I'll count it, even if my boyfriend is where?"
Li Ke uttered the words in a panic, feeling extremely nervous, fearing that if he was a second late, he would be kicked out of the live broadcast room.
Lin Sheng glanced at her and asked briefly,
"What's your name?"
The person on the screen was obviously stunned for a moment. Li Ke thought for a while and answered blankly,
"Master, my name is Li Ke, I just introduced myself."
His eyes went dark, Lin Sheng closed them weakly, and remained silent for a long time.
[I'm silent, Master. Don't you understand what I'm saying? ]
【At this moment, stupidity reaches its peak.】
[Who asked you this? Who doesn't know? Do you understand the rules?]
"What I'm asking is, what's your boyfriend's name?"
Li Ke's grievances suddenly disappeared, his brain was instantly awakened, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face.
"Sorry, sorry, his name is Lu Yu."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Sheng started counting in front of everyone.
You don’t know until you calculate it, and you’ll be shocked when you do.
Lin Sheng's relaxed brows suddenly furrowed, his expression becoming noticeably serious, and he suddenly asked seriously,
"When was the last time you saw him?"
But Li Ke opened his big eyes and looked at her with confusion, as if he didn't understand Lin Sheng's question.
Lin Sheng had no choice but to change the way he asked.
"When was the last time you felt like he hadn't changed?"
"After two weeks of living together."
"Who knew about your cohabitation? When did you decide to live together? Tell me every detail."
Li Ke immediately realized that something was wrong, and a trace of fear arose in his heart. He tried hard to recall the scene at that time.
"When we decided to live together, we were dating in a milk tea shop. He suddenly proposed living together. I didn't think much about it and agreed immediately. The next day we moved our luggage. At that time, it was just the two of us and no one else knew."
Lin Sheng frowned slightly and continued to ask,
"What about after living together? Has anyone else asked about it?"
Li Ke seemed to have guessed Lin Sheng's thoughts. A trace of guilt flashed across his face, and he lowered his voice consciously.
"Actually, we posted it on WeChat Moments on the first day we lived together. Everyone around us knew about it. Master, does this have any impact? You're asking this now. Did something happen to Lu Yu? Is he... is he still alive?"
Lin Sheng did not answer her question directly, but just evaded it.
"The sooner you explain everything, the sooner you can find out the truth. If something really happens to your boyfriend, the people most likely to harm him are the people close to you. Do both of your parents agree that you're together?"
Li Ke honestly suppressed his suspicions and did not ask any more questions, not daring to delay the progress of the investigation.
"My family doesn't agree. They think Lu Yu has no money, and he just lost his job not long ago. I've been paying the rent since we started living together. My parents think he's unstable and that I'll have a hard time living with him. But I don't think so. Only those who endure hardships can achieve success."
[You stupid girl, you were sold out and still willingly counted money for others.]
[Another love-brained one, Master, get her out of here, I can't stand it.]
[This man is not possessed by a ghost, he clearly didn't cherish you after getting you. It's clear that he was just a free babysitter.]
Taunts kept popping up in the barrage, and Li Ke saw it with his own eyes, feeling pain in his heart. His usually docile face was filled with anger.
"No, you don't understand him at all. If you are so petty as you are, how can you live after marriage and maintain a family?"
[This sister is still thinking about getting married? She must be seriously ill.]
[Lu Yu has some tricks up his sleeve, making her follow him wholeheartedly.]
[Don't worry about these things. From now on, you will be the one being manipulated. There's no way to persuade them.]
Li Ke kept competing with the barrage, pretending to clear Lu Yu's name.
Lin Sheng was obviously displeased and interrupted Li Ke directly.
"Besides your parents, what do your friends think?"
Li Ke felt a tightness in his chest, and was extremely angry, but he did not dare to vent his anger on Lin Sheng, so he suppressed his anger.
"Lu Yu doesn't have many friends, and usually spends his free time with me. His parents died early, and he's an only child. However, my best friend doesn't like my relationship with Lu Yu. We always quarrel and dislike each other whenever we meet."
"After living together, how did you find out that something was wrong with him?"
Li Ke suddenly became interested, and the unpleasantness just now was swept away.
"Two weeks into our relationship, he didn't tell me about his schedule. He usually comes home right after work, but that time he didn't. He came back very late, reeking of alcohol. I was furious.
Because he couldn't drink much, his face would turn red when he was drunk and he would be unconscious, so I had to wait on him. But that day, as soon as he walked in, he threw himself on me, hugged me tightly, and smiled happily, muttering that he finally got me and that this was the happiest moment of his life.
The next morning, he actually started cooking. He had never been in the kitchen before and couldn't do any housework, but he said he learned it especially for me."
Lin Sheng couldn't see any doubts with just these, but her divination couldn't be wrong!
The divination just now showed that Lu Yu had died a month ago, and the person next to Li Ke now must not be Lu Yu.
Thinking of this, Lin Sheng continued to ask,
"How long have you been living together?"
Li Ke glanced at the date on his phone and calculated the time.
"44 days."
A hint of darkness flashed in Lin Sheng's eyes, and he was more certain of Lu Yu's death. But it was not the time to tell the truth yet. He thought about it and spoke in a hurried tone.
"At the beginning, you mentioned that you saw eyeballs in the trash can in the bathroom. What's going on?"
Li Ke suddenly recalled the scene in his mind. An instinctive fear swept over his heart. He felt a chill on his back and turned back to look at the bedroom door without warning.
Seeing the bedroom door tightly closed, Li Ke breathed a sigh of relief, retracted his gaze, looked back at the camera, adjusted his mood, and began to describe the scene of the day.
"That day, I got home from get off work and thought I had forgotten my keys, so I sent him a message in advance, asking him to come home early and wait for me. When I arrived at the door, he didn't reply to the message, so I found the keys in my bag and opened the door and went in.
Seeing that the living room light was on and his shoes were placed at the door, I guessed that he must have come back. I called him a few times, but there was no response from him, so I thought I was wrong.
But unexpectedly, he was hiding in the bathroom alone. I saw him through the crack in the door and was about to call his name, but I saw him putting something that looked like human skin on his face. At first glance, I thought it was a facial mask and teased him why he suddenly put on a facial mask.
After he came out of the bathroom, I went into the bathroom to take a shower, but I didn't find the mask he was holding. Instead, I saw an eyeball in the trash can. I was immediately shocked.
At the time, he comforted me by saying it was just a lifelike toy he had bought. "Master, now that I think about it, that eyeball looks like it was just dug out, and the color of his face mask looks like a human skin mask."
[I have a picture in my mind, feeling a bit nauseous and wanting to vomit.]
"Sister, is your boyfriend a pervert? Did his true nature show up after living with you? He's been giving you the cold shoulder to try to hide his true colors, but then he's actively doing chores to please you."
I agree with the above comment, sister. Divide up as soon as possible and move out quickly. Don't wait until one day when they dismember and bury you in your sleep, and your life will be over!
Li Ke felt his scalp tingling instantly, goose bumps appeared all over his body, and he couldn't help but tremble all over. Endless fear filled his heart.
He glanced around the bedroom. The originally warm and sweet home became scary in an instant.
Beneath the false warmth, every corner of the room might be hiding unspeakable secrets. In the photo hanging on the wall, the two people in the photo are smiling happily, but Li Ke automatically regards the other person in the photo as a devil.
All the joy in my heart vanished in an instant.
He was so absorbed in watching that he didn't notice the bedroom door behind him quietly opening. Suddenly, Li Ke heard a voice in his ear:
"Keke, what are you looking at? Why are you so lost in thought?"
