Chapter 79 Home Visit
The cook girl finally took out the key to the cold storage door from her pocket and handed it to the housekeeper.
The butler took his hand back and nodded: "Let's go together."
Coleman looked at the cook girl, hesitating whether to go with her.
The chef turned around and smiled at Coleman, and whispered, "Sister, I'm fine. I can go by myself."
After the cook finished speaking, she lowered her head and followed the housekeeper out of the villa and came to the outside of the cold storage.
When the housekeeper slowly unlocked the door, she already knew her fate, but when the door was actually opened, her heart still pounded uncontrollably in her chest.
There was no intact meat left in the cold storage, only some scattered meat scraps on the ground.
The butler slowly turned around and asked, "What's going on?"
The cook girl swallowed her saliva and said, "Mr. Butler, there are rats in the manor."
"As the chef of the Batti family, don't you have the responsibility to protect the food in the manor?" the butler asked, "Are you planning to use this meat that has been gnawed by rats to entertain my masters?"
"Absolutely not!"
The butler waved his hand and said, "Because of your irresponsibility, you have caused serious damage to the interests of the manor. You must make equivalent compensation."
After it finished speaking, the steel hooks in the cold storage that were originally used to hang pork suddenly arched up high like poisonous snakes, ready to strike.
No...no!
The chef girl didn't care about anything else and immediately turned around and ran away.
But she couldn't run away at all. The steel hooks rushed out faster than her, hooked into her calves, and pulled her into the cold storage with a short scream.
The housekeeper waited outside for a while and then walked into the cold storage.
**
Twenty minutes later, it walked back into the villa carrying a plate of food.
It was the only one that came back.
Coleman was stunned for a moment.
She was stunned for a while, then she muttered to herself in a trance: "Menu...menu."
Coleman frantically found the menu and opened it, only to find that the original names of the dishes had been crossed out at some point and replaced with new names: Boiled Chef.
It was obvious that the cook girl had been killed.
Coleman muttered to himself meaninglessly: "Should I have gone with her just now? She's such a nice girl."
In fact, if there is no effective way to escape from here directly like them, death itself is an inevitable fate, it is just a matter of sooner or later.
However, Lu Jiamu's EQ and IQ were still good, so he didn't say such words directly to her face. Instead, he slightly curled the corners of his mouth downwards, showing just the right amount of sadness on his face.
Instead, Wang Biao directly enlightened her with his words: "You are not the same kind of people at all. There is no point in you accompanying her."
"Yeah." Coleman nodded, and soon got rid of his worried state. "I heard her say before that she also wants to live as long as possible."
The butler had already walked into the kitchen with the key in hand. "The original chef was fired for lacking professionalism. Who will take over the position temporarily now?"
With so many monsters running around in the cold storage, it's obvious whoever takes over this position might be the next victim.
No one spoke, but their eyes were more or less fixed on the last personal servant.
Although this personal servant did not want to take over this position, he was very self-aware.
He is alone and lacks strength, and he will have to rely on his teammates in the future. Of course, he needs to stand up and take this risk now.
He raised his hand: "I'll do it."
The butler handed the key to him: "Do a good job."
After breakfast, Lu Jiamu took Batty to school, leaving Kouman and Wang Biao to feed the dog.
After the housekeeper drove them to school, Lu Jiamu led Batty in.
Today's teacher was waiting outside classroom 101. When he saw them, he greeted them: "Are you here?"
Batty shrank back behind Lu Jiamu: "Hmm..."
The teacher said: "Today I hope to visit the students' homes to understand their family situations and determine whether their family situations are suitable for admission."
I'm going to have a home visit today, but you just told me this morning. Isn't that too casual?
In the last day or so, Lu Jiamu certainly hopes to maintain the previous state and avoid such unexpected things.
But the teacher was talking about whether he was suitable for admission and so on, so he couldn't just refuse.
Lu Jiamu smiled and said, "This is really a sudden plan. It was so sudden that we were not prepared at all."
Batty also said after hearing this: "Teacher, I didn't tell you yesterday."
"This is a sudden request from the school leaders today." The teacher nodded, "You can call home first. There is a landline in the classroom."
Lu Jiamu had no idea what the phone number was, so he could only turn his attention to Batti.
Fortunately, Batty knew something and ran into the classroom to make a call.
The phone rang twice before being connected. Lu Jiamu stood beside her and vaguely heard the voice of the housekeeper.
After Batty explained the situation here, he asked excitedly: "Is the teacher going to visit our home now?"
Batty said "hmm".
The housekeeper replied: "There is nothing extra to do at home today, so it is a good time to receive guests. I am outside the school now and have not left yet. The young master can come out to find me at any time."
Batty hung up the phone and looked at the teacher: "The housekeeper said that we can visit your home today."
The teacher heard this and started to walk out: "Then let's do it today."
As soon as you leave the school gate, you can see the manor's car parked in a very conspicuous place, and the butler is standing next to the car.
Seeing them coming with their teacher, the butler bowed politely and opened the car door for them.
The car was carrying them halfway when it suddenly stopped and could not move, as if it had suddenly broken down.
The butler sat upright, holding the steering wheel, without moving for a long time.
The teacher smiled as he sat in the back seat: "The car can't move anymore. The conditions of your manor seem to be limited."
Batty became a little nervous when he heard the teacher seem to hint that his family was not well off.
The butler tilted his head slightly: "I will check what's wrong immediately."
Without checking, Lu Jiamu could guess what was wrong.
This morning, in order to burn the ceramic doll to ashes, he deliberately sucked a bowl of oil from the car with a pipe. Now if he carefully calculated, if the oil in the tank was just enough for one round trip, it seemed that without that bowl, he could only go so far.
I didn't expect this car to be so sophisticated and scientific. The fuel consumption was calculated so carefully without any reserve. It was really surprising.
Lu Jiamu pretended to be completely unaware and smiled innocently without any embarrassment.
The butler got out of the car and checked around, but didn't seem to notice anything wrong.
Lu Jiamu opened the car door before the teacher became completely impatient: "Mr. Butler, what is the reason?"
The butler raised his head: "I haven't found any problems yet."
It must be abnormal that it didn't notice such a simple problem as lack of oil after such a long journey. It must be aware of it and deliberately waited for him to ask, and then traced the whereabouts of the gasoline through some method.
Lu Jiamu was cautious and didn't mention the gasoline. He just smiled and suggested, "We've been driving for so long, and we're not far from the manor. Since the car is broken, let's walk back."
The teacher in the car said, "It's not close, right?"
"It's very close." Lu Jiamu replied, "It's farther to go back, can you bear with it?"
"All right."
Lu Jiamu picked up Batti, and the four of them abandoned the car and started walking towards the manor.
Delays on the road and the journey on foot took even longer.
When they finally reached the manor, the host and hostess had already come out to greet them. They stood stiffly at the door and smiled strangely: "We heard that you would visit us today, so we prepared early. Why are you so late?"
The butler replied: "The car broke down on the way."
"The car is not important. Our family doesn't mind one or two cars." The host and hostess immediately invited the teacher warmly, "Please come in."
The tone of their voice was so grand, not at all like a family that had made precise calculations and could not drive their car back home if they were short of one bowl of gasoline.
After the people in the house finished taking care of the three dogs, they saw the host and hostess standing outside the house like two scarecrows. They have been there until now, but it is not clear what they are doing outside.
Seeing Lu Jiamu coming back again, Wang Biao asked, "What happened?"
Lu Jiamu leaned over and whispered, "The teacher is visiting my home."
Without the hostess's specific instructions, Coleman took the initiative to go to the kitchen, took out the can of white powder that was said to be used to entertain guests and was the employer's family's favorite, and brought it out after brewing it with hot water.
The host and hostess had already invited the school teacher to the reception room, and were bragging about some deeds that were not sure whether they were true or not, and both the guests and the host were having a great time.
The hostess looked very satisfied when she saw Coleman bring out the tea.
After chatting for a while, the hostess turned around and arranged for the housekeeper to take the teacher to visit the manor.
After the teacher left the villa, the hostess smiled and touched her bracelet: "I must keep the teacher at home for dinner today."
But the meat had already been eaten by rats.
Before, they all thought that Batti would not eat at home today, but now she not only came back, but also brought back a teacher, making the already poor family even worse off.
Several people immediately focused their attention on the personal servant who was in charge of the keys, suggesting that he go and ask.
The personal servant had no choice but to step forward and ask the hostess in a subtle way: "What kind of food should we prepare for the teacher?"
The hostess replied as a matter of course: "Of course we will follow our menu and prepare an extra portion for the teacher."
The personal servant thought about his words for a moment and pointed out tactfully: "Due to the chef's negligence before, we did not prevent the rats in the manor, so the ingredients in the cold storage are not enough."
The host asked, "Is there not enough meat?"
"Yes." He nodded and added, "The housekeeper has fired her."
"A refrigerated truck should be arriving this afternoon to restock our store."
“But we can’t let teachers go without a decent lunch!”
As the man spoke, he suddenly picked up the axe hanging on the wall as a decoration and held it high.
With a "click", the hostess's head fell to the ground. A malicious smile hung on her face, the corners of her mouth almost stretched to her ears. She rolled while saying, "Now I have it."
The man also stopped what he was doing and looked at them with a malicious smile.
Yu Leng saw this unexpected development with his own eyes, and his scalp suddenly went numb. He began to mutter to himself: "..."
"This must be intentional!"
Now Batty is still accompanying her teacher to visit the manor. If she can't find her mother when she comes back, or sees that her mother's head and body have been separated, no matter how thick she is, she will definitely notice that something is wrong.
Although they didn't know what words triggered this scene, the fact that it happened on the last day was really devastating.
Wang Biao had a fierce look on his face. While others were still at a loss, he gritted his teeth, walked back and forth in the room, and found a box of needles and thread from somewhere.
When he came back, he asked, "Who among you can sew her head back on?"
Yu Leng understood his intention and immediately stepped back, waving his hands and declaring: "I'm afraid of needles! My legs go weak when I see needles piercing my flesh."
The personal servant also said, "This job is too delicate. And I can't sew."
"Who's coming?" Wang Biao turned to Kou Man and Wei Xiaoyan while holding an embroidery needle, his eyes moving between the two of them, "I heard that you girls are the most clever and skillful."
Wei Xiaoyan immediately felt very scared: "I, I'm not a medical student, I can't sew a brain!"
Wang Biao, holding the embroidery needle, finally looked at Kouman for help.
Coleman was also shaking his head: "How can sewing clothes be the same as this?"
Seeing that they were all unreliable, Lu Jiamu rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll try."
