Chapter 8 Chapter VII The Closed House

Heavy rain, outside the window is very rapid and wanton heavy rain.Sleeping in a hurry last night, Ye Wan didn't have time to close the curtains, so when she opened her eyes, she saw the sky outside the window.The weather forecast seems to be quite accurate. If it is as the weather forecast said, it seems that the rain will last for about three days. In the ruins, the rain will make everything more depressed, quiet and desolate. There was a knock on the door, as urgent as the rain.Ye Wan opened the door, and Gao Pingying stood at the door, looking at his expression, as if something serious had happened.She thought, it must be about the lotus seed soup, obviously there is something wrong with Mama Zhang's lotus seed soup.But Gao Pingying didn't come here for the lotus seed soup, but for the mobile phone.He asked her to check if the phone was still there, Ye Wan thought his request was a bit ridiculous, who would steal her phone here, it was a very ordinary old phone.

Ye Wan turned around to look for it, but the phone was really gone, it disappeared inexplicably.When she entered the room last night, she still clearly remembered that the mobile phone was with her, but it is gone now, which means that someone entered her room last night.She locked the door before going to bed, and when the locked door was opened at random, Ye Wan panicked.Gao Pingying knocked on other people's rooms again, asking the same question, and the other people's answers were the same as Ye Wan's, the phone disappeared, and everyone's room had been entered. Ten minutes later, everyone gathered in the living room, Zhang Bo and Zhang Ma were standing, Ye Caixia was sitting on the single sofa next to the cupboard, Shen Huaqi was sitting on the single sofa opposite her, the couch next to the mural He Yi, Wu Meilan and Shen Dan were sitting, Gao Pingying, Ye Wan and Shen Le were sitting on the couch by the window, a total of ten people.Everyone's face was very heavy, Ye Wan looked at Auntie, Auntie's face was pale and pale, her expression was as tense as a string of a violin, which would break if she touched it a little.Looking at Mama Zhang again, she was standing next to He Yi, with a frightened expression on her face.Ye Wan glanced at Shen Dan's face, this face was expressionless, sitting motionless on the sofa, like a stone statue.Maybe her sleep time was disrupted, and she was a little out of sorts.

Last night, everyone in the house was drugged.But now, the door of the house has been welded dead, and all the windows have been welded dead with iron bars. At the corner of the stairs leading to the balcony on the fourth floor, an iron fence has been added out of thin air, and an iron fence has been installed in the space above to cut off the barriers. The way to the balcony on the fourth floor.The phone bus was cut, and everyone's cell phone and Shen Le's laptop were gone.All the hardware is in the garage, not even a screwdriver.Even if the glass of the window is broken, the outside is still covered with an iron anti-theft net.In other words, they are now trapped in this house, completely isolated from the outside world.

There will be signs of black smoke left by the fire on the front of the welding, and there will be signs of black smoke on the side facing the house, indicating that the welder is welding the door inside the house.As for the iron fence that isolates the balcony, there is no sign of fire on the side facing the house, so the burning side must be facing the balcony.From this point of view, the electric welder took the electric welding tool, walked into the house to weld the door, and then took the tool to the balcony, built two iron fences and installed them.The last location of the blocker and the welding tool is on the balcony, which can also explain why the welding tool is not in the house.

Why did this man leave himself on the balcony?Regardless of whether there are accomplices or not, if you choose to leave after the blockade, it is better to move the welding tools upstairs to weld, and then move down to weld the house door. It is much easier to leave downstairs than from the balcony.How could this person be so stupid, sealing himself up on the balcony is very unreasonable.Ye Wan thought of the wolfhound lying quietly on the ground last night, it seemed that it was also drugged.What she didn't even understand was why the drug was used. If everyone was really going to die, wouldn't it be more convenient to use poison directly, and it would be unnecessary to seal the house.

It's pouring rain outside, even if we break the glass and call for help, the sound of the rain will be covered up. Even if the rain stops, the place is so remote and there are few vehicles, let alone passers-by. Will the sound be effective? do not know yet.And this rain will not stop for a while, the person who sealed off the house must have waited for this kind of weather on purpose, when he heard from the weather forecast that it will rain heavily today, and it will last for two or three days.This is the right time and place he asked for, so no matter how many people there are or how small the house is closed, he has to complete his work within two or three days.

Originally, Ye Wan suspected that there was something wrong with Zhang Ma's lotus seed soup, but now, the couple is also trapped here, if they made it, there is no reason to trap herself in it, right?The lotus seed soup was cooked in the kitchen, and anyone could sneak in to dispense the medicine when Mama Zhang was away.Maybe the person who put drugs and sealed off the house was those suspicious male feet.This thought popped into Ye Wan's mind, her lips trembled in bewilderment, but she bit her lip and did not mention the existence of these men's feet, because she had concerns.

"Why did Mrs. Shen abandon the city and move to such a remote place?" The question that Gao Pingying raised suddenly was the doubt of many people, and it was also the doubt of Ye Wan.Under the persecution of everyone, Ye Caixia finally revealed the reason for moving.This was Shen Huawen's oral will on his deathbed, asking her to hand over the company to Shen Huaqi after his death, sell the original house, and move here.The witness of the will at that time was Shen Huaqi. Everyone turned their eyes to the sofa opposite Ye Caixia again, Shen Hua nodded his head, confirming Ye Caixia's words.He always stands with Ye Caixia, and the relationship between uncle and sister-in-law is very stable and united.Only the two of them knew about Shen Huawen's oral will, so it was ambiguous whether it was true or false.

"Is it a ghost playing a prank?" Wu Meilan moved uneasily on the sofa. "There's no need to use a welding machine." Gao Pingying dismissed Wu Meilan's words. Uncle Zhang said a bad thing with his head downcast. Although he bought some food yesterday afternoon, it could only last for two or three days at most.His words were like a stone, stirring up another layer of panic in everyone's hearts.The living room fell into silence again, no one spoke, everyone sat helplessly, and no one knew what to do next. Listening to the sound of rain outside, this kind of silence makes people feel like floating on the sea, helpless, powerless and directionless.Who is the person who sealed the house, and what is the purpose of the other party?No one has pointed out the train of thought, or they simply don't know how to figure out the train of thought in order to make themselves wise and safe.Ye Wan's heart is also struggling, should she tell what she knows, and will she get stuck in a quagmire?

The punishment after a sin is God's punishment for the person who planted the evil fruit.Could it be that they were punished because they planted evil fruits?What crimes have the people here committed?Or is my uncle's ghost at work?She has never met her uncle, so her uncle's ghost should have nothing to do with her.As for the sin, thinking about the scene ten years ago, Ye Wan couldn't help but feel guilty. She began to gradually feel that it was a secret arrangement that she walked into this house again, maybe it was because of her silence at the beginning that aroused the resentment of the dead.Thinking of the possibility of dying here, Ye Wan couldn't help but want to cry. She regretted entering this house. She regretted it once ten years ago, and now she regrets it again.

It was almost twelve o'clock at noon, and the dead living room was awakened by hunger.Because the house was closed, no one had breakfast, and hunger made people in the living room think about food. Anyway, until death came, they still lived as usual.Everyone walked towards the restaurant one after another. There was no formal lunch, but breakfast was turned into lunch. At this time, lunch does not have the meaning of life, but only the needs of life. Anxiety and discussions in the morning have long made people tired. As soon as the simple lunch was over, everyone at the table got up and went back to their rooms to rest.Ye Caixia was the first to stand up and leave the restaurant, Shen Huaqi was the second to follow, Shen Le was the third, and He Yi was the fourth.Seeing He Yi leave, Wu Meilan also pulled her daughter away.Ye Wan looked at Shen Dan's back, Shen Dan had been very quiet, unusually quiet.The house was blocked, so she should be more crazy, but she became quiet, which is really strange, maybe because of the disrupted sleep time, Ye Wan couldn't figure out the thinking of this character. Only she and Gao Pingying were left in the restaurant.Ye Wan glanced at the person on the right, he had stopped eating, and then looked at the photos that appeared in the restaurant last night.Then he looked up at the chandelier above, as if thinking that the photograph had fallen from it.The chandelier above is composed of six white semi-circular lamps, like plum blossoms, one of which is slightly smaller, and the surrounding five are slightly larger, clustered together.Ye Wan felt that it was impossible to wait for the photo on the lamp to fall off when they were eating, and if there was a photo on the lamp, there would be a shadow. Gao Pingying removed the dishes and chopsticks on the table under the chandelier to free up some empty tabletops, got some napkins, put some on the table, and put some on the chairs.Finally, he stepped on the chair and then on the table to examine the chandelier above it.Gao Pingying should be over 1.8 meters tall, and the chandelier is nearly 30 centimeters from the ceiling. In addition to the height of the table, it is easy for him to check the chandelier. Ye Wan was not in the mood to care about the photos, she was still thinking about those male feet, whether it was someone else, or she hadn't thought it through properly, during the time when she packed her luggage and went to the balcony, it might have been in the living room He Zhan went to the fourth floor. The dark brown color was very close to black, but she felt intuitively that those men's trousers were not suit trousers. "Do you feel that there are pictures on it?" the above asked. Ye Wan raised her head, and Gao Pingying was carrying the photo on the light bulb in the chandelier, because the back of the photo is white, and placing it on the light bulb will not cause shadows at all, and the people below will not notice it at all. There are photos on it. After Gao Pingying got the answer, he got down from the top, took off the paper towel on the chair, sat next to Ye Wan, pointed to a little dirt on the back of the photo, and said: "Someone put a little latex on the back of the photo and stuck it on the light bulb, wait for us to come When eating, after turning on the chandelier, the heat on the bulb slowly melted the latex, and the photo fell off. When it fell, a little vegetable juice was stained on the back. It stands to reason that the photo itself has a varnish layer, and the vegetable juice is easy to wipe off. , only the place where the latex is applied, the dirt is not easy to wipe off. I just checked the light bulb, and there is a little sticky stain on the light bulb in the middle, which should be where the photo was pasted. " Ye Wan looked at the photo suddenly, Gao Pingying's deduction was correct, someone deliberately created the photo incident, and the purpose should be aimed at Auntie.From this point of view, the person who blocked the house is related to the person who made the photo incident.Once the two are connected, who is the woman in the photo becomes even more mysterious.
