Chapter 05 The Man in the House
"Huh? There's still stuff like this in Kyoto?"
At the bathroom door, a man just came out of the men's bathroom. He was obviously drunk and was walking like a dragon.
This idiot blocked Si Wan's way, gritted his teeth and looked obscene: "Beauty, are you alone?" He deliberately glanced behind Si Wan, and after making sure there was no threat, he stared at Si Wan's chest with his lustful eyes.
Si Wan was wearing a black long dress with a tube top and a waist-cinching design. Her hot figure was enough to make him hot just by looking at the outline.
Si Wan snorted and shook her head silently, very slightly, as if laughing at this idiot for choosing the right person to get himself into trouble with.
"I'm in a good mood today, it's not too late for you to leave now." Si Wan lowered her head and gently stroked the hair that slipped from her ears while speaking.
"Fuck, you little girl are quite wild. Brother will make you kneel down and call me daddy..." He stretched out his dirty hands towards Si Wan.
"Ah!!!" Unexpectedly, the drunkard started wailing in pain without even touching Si Wan's hair. The next second, he heard a 'click' and saw his wrist broken in half.
"Go away." His voice was dull and indescribably sexy.
Si Wan looked up when she heard the voice and saw that the protruding blue veins on the back of the man's hand gradually subsided. Then she threw the drunkard's hand away like garbage.
The drunkard was sweating profusely from the pain, and he rolled and crawled while running, howling, "Just wait, if you have the guts, don't leave."
"Thank you, Mr. Yu, for your help." Si Wan regained her serious expression and gave Yu Jinnian a proper smile.
This saves her from having to do anything.
Yu Jinnian didn't seem to take this little episode to heart. He glanced at Si Wan's face briefly, a quick yet slow glance, as if an unintentional touch. His deep eyes looked away: "Are you sure you want to reject Hua Ding's invitation?"
When his eyes turned back to Si Wan, the man had already taken out a cigarette and was slowly biting it between his lips and teeth. He tilted his head slightly to light it, and the movement of blowing smoke rings was natural and casual, but Si Wan smelled a hint of danger.
"There are craftsmen all over the world. I can find any job with the salary Mr. Yu offers. There's no need to choose me. Besides, Mr. Yu is so charming that I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself."
Si Wan finished speaking, her eyebrows raised with a hint of obvious sarcasm, and said: "After all, I still remember Mr. Yu's warning back then."
He said that her playing hard to get was funny back then, but he wondered how she felt about it now?
That night, Si Wan came out of the bathroom and left without returning to the private room.
A week later, at night.
A heavy rain came quietly.
On the side of the road, a black car lay dormant for a long time. Its windshield wipers were like a depressed patient, uninterested in their job, and only occasionally made a lifeless "swish".
Wu Nan, sitting in the passenger seat, was so frightened that her face turned pale. At the last moment, she started to back out.
"Wanbao, let's go. You're breaking into a private residence, which is illegal."
Si Wan snorted softly as the rain pierced through the cracks in her eyes. Her gaze was fixed on the ancient pine tree in Yu Jinnian's private courtyard.
"You know what? That ancient pine tree is a thousand years old. He has good taste. This yard is truly a Feng Shui treasure land."
"..." Although his vision was unclear, Wu Nan was not blind. What was in front of him was clearly a villa, so why did it sound like a cemetery when Si Wan said it?
"Wanbao? You, you don't want to kill someone to silence them, do you?"
"How clever! If you dare to call the police, I'll kill you too."
Si Wan wanted to laugh when she saw Wu Nan's cowardly look, so she teased her on purpose.
"No, no, no, Wanbao, let's go back and discuss it."
When Wu Nan saw Si Wan opening the car door, she reached out to stop her, but her figure hadn't changed at all. She was too clumsy and only grabbed a handful of air.
"It's over, it's over. No, I can't hurt Wanbao. I, I, I... Yes, call the police."
Wu Nan actually took it seriously and was talking incoherently like a headless fly while searching for her phone, which was clearly in her hand.
The wall of Yu Jinnian's private residence is higher than normal specifications, and there is a pulse electronic fence installed on the top of the wall. This is also the reason why Si Wan chose to act on a rainy day.
It was pitch black all around, and all she could hear was the sound of rain, which soaked her entire body almost instantly.
Standing at the base of the wall, I measured its height, which was about 10 meters.
"Hmph, there might be something shameful in here. Tsk! Do you think you are Zhu Chongba?"
While muttering to herself, Si Wan had already thrown out the Flying Tiger Claw.
On the other side, his idiot teammate Wu Nan actually called the police: "Hello... Hello, I need to call the police. My friend broke into my house. Come and arrest her."
…………
Si Wan jumped down from the wall and rolled twice on the ground to reduce the impact. A familiar smell was floating in the air.
I didn't expect that this courtyard had not been renovated and was exactly the same as it was during the Ming Dynasty.
With a fluttering heart and trembling hands, Si Wan headed straight for the ancient pine tree, took out a military shovel from her waist, and began digging based on her memory.
She had buried quite a lot of things at the time, and it took her half a day just to dig the hole. It must be a lot of effort this time, and she must work harder to take the box away before dawn.
'Puff, puff, puff...' In the dark, stormy night, a woman in black was digging frantically under an ancient pine tree. It was truly terrifying.
"Yi～～～Ah～～～Ah." There was a sound.
Si Wan paused, a scene suddenly flashing through her mind. She looked towards the source of the sound.
The house was pitch black, and a light suddenly came on on the second floor.
There was a figure reflected on the curtains. The person was dancing gracefully, and his sleeves were swinging as freely as flowing water.
She was very similar to the mad woman imprisoned in the deep palace, with a shrill voice and the faint humming of Peking Opera tunes.
Frowning, Si Wan lowered her eyes thoughtfully. For a moment, her curiosity about the people in the room outweighed the treasures within the pit.
There is a woman locked up in Yu Jinnian's private residence, and she is very likely a crazy woman. How can she not be excited?
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and in the short time it took me to think, the pit was already filled with water.
"Damn it." Si Wan wiped the rain off her face, her eyes bitter. After all, the hole was filled.
Dead things can't escape, so she can come back another day. Today she must explore this house.
When she reached the door, she found it was locked with a combination lock and couldn't be opened. How could such a simple task stump Si Wan? She threw her Flying Tiger Claw high up to the roof, and once it locked, she climbed up as if it were flat ground.
After removing the tiles and crawling in, he restored the tiles.
A moment later, a scream came from the west bedroom. Liuli, dressed in white, shrank into a corner and asked in fear, "Who are you?"
What a beautiful woman, it's no exaggeration to say she could rival Xi Shi. As a woman herself, Si Wan had to admit that she was breathtakingly beautiful.
"Who are you?" Liuli asked again when Si Wan remained silent. Her voice was timid, and she didn't sound like someone who was mentally ill.
At this moment, Si Wan was wet all over. She stood on the floor, and soon a layer of water piled up under her feet.
"What is your relationship with Yu Jinnian?" Si Wan asked instead of answering.
Liuli's eyes suddenly lit up, as if they were lit by fire and became warm, and hot tears burst out one by one.
"Brother Yu... Do you know Brother Yu? Sister, can you take me to find Brother Yu? Good sister... Liuli hasn't seen Brother Yu for a long time. If you take me to find him, I will give you my candy..." Liuli said as she ran towards Si Wan.
“…”So he’s still a lunatic.
