Chapter 77: The Symptom of Eternal Age
The door was open, and the cool breeze of the autumn night swept into the house, causing the candlelight that was already breathing on the table to sway again.
The six figures in the room gradually occupied the wall and trembled with the fire.
Just as the candlelight was about to be blown out by the wind, Fang Shenyan, who finally entered the room, locked the door to death.
Old woman, this name is a bit strange.
Because the sound and expression in front of him were no different from the elderly, but the face and exposed skin were too tender.
It seems like a handful of new grass that has just grown from the spring mud, representing endless vitality.
Fang Shenyan couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the old woman's appearance, but after a moment he calmed down.
Start observing the abnormal movements in the room. This room will be very large, and the screen behind the living room will lead to two directions.
He didn't know how big the space behind was.
Especially on the surface, there is only an old woman here, but it is too simple to hide people here.
After thinking for a while, Fang Shenyan remembered the time when the young man was poisoned, he shook his head, and simply sat on the chair and smoked.
After seeing the old woman's face, everyone fell into silence, and the whole bunch of questions that had been before were unable to speak.
On the contrary, the old woman said the first sentence in a hoarse voice:
"Don't be nervous, I'm eighty-four years old this year, and I'm just because I have an aging disease."
"Asia?"
Chang Nian and Tao Xiaoyi are women after all, so they are more sensitive to this situation.
After looking at the old woman up and down, Chang Nian pursed her lips.
She really doesn't know what age is. If she understands it literally, it seems that it can no longer be considered "illness", but it is more like a gift...
Tongguan stood in the hall, observed it around, and looked at the old woman.
I carefully guessed why she spoke like this in the first sentence.
This sentence seems to be just a simple explanation, but she must have a superior position in the Li Mansion, and Tongguan and others were tied up again.
Why explain to them?
unless……
Seeing that no one spoke, the old woman's bright eyes glanced at the five people present, especially looking at her dress for a while.
His expression seemed very pleased and nodded with satisfaction:
"Chen Fu did a good job, you are indeed aliens."
Another weird word, but this one is understandable.
Tongguan and others were wearing modern outfits, and their hairstyles and outfits did not match the current time period.
But it seemed that the old woman had known that they were coming for a long time, so she sent "Chen Fu" to greet her.
This Chen Fu should be the young man who led the way and the old woman's nephew.
"Since we are welcoming us, why pretend to be a funeral team?"
After thinking about Tongguan, since he knew more, the Li Mansion was involved in the main line of this mission.
Now, he can't leave. In order to stay and complete the task, he can only dig more information.
When the old woman heard this, she sighed, grabbed the crutch beside her and stood up.
The slow movements and oldness formed a huge contrast with the fresh appearance, making people feel very uncomfortable.
"The funeral has nothing to do with you.
It’s just because every night, the Li Mansion will have a funeral.”
"Oh? Why is this?"
Tongguan was puzzled. He always felt that the whole atmosphere of the Li Mansion was very wrong, but he couldn't say it.
Now the old woman has given another extremely vague and critical prompt.
However, when the old woman turned her back to several people, she did not answer the question in Tongguan.
He just said quietly: "Get out first, I will call you again tomorrow morning."
When Yu Guo heard that he didn't ask anything, he wanted to send them away and stood up impatiently.
He pointed at the old woman's back and was about to say something, but Fang Shenyan stopped him.
"Xiaolan, take the guests to the bedroom."
The old woman didn't give the clerk a chance to continue testing, so she shook her sleeves and walked behind the screen.
A girl who looked young and had braids responded obediently and walked out from behind the screen.
Xiaolan walked to Tongguan and others, and after showing her salute, she opened the door.
"Several guests, please follow me."
Looking at the reserved Xiaolan, the few people looked at each other.
Fang Shenyan winked at Tongguan. Tongguan thought for a moment, and turned his eyes to Chang Nian.
"Since the old woman can't dig anything out, she has to try it out from this Xiaolan.
We men have no status, so we can only leave it to you."
Chang Nian glanced at Tongguan, nodded, and walked towards Xiaolan at the door with a smile.
Tongguan followed closely, and Fang Shenyan was about to go out, but he saw Yu Guo tiptoed to peek behind the screen.
He stepped forward lightly and patted Yu Guo on the shoulder: "What else do you want to see?"
Yu Guo's body tightened, as if he was startled, and muttered complainingly: "Don't you know that people are scary, are they scary?"
"What are you guilty?"
"How can we not be guilty? What we did is not a good thing."
Yu Guo generously admitted what he did. When he pulled his body, a black dot appeared next to a corner of the wall.
Fang Shenyan got closer and saw that the black dots were small and exquisite in workmanship, and it was hard to tell what they were from the appearance alone.
And it is hidden on the screen, and it is almost impossible to find its existence without any careful search.
Yu Guo put his index finger beside his mouth and signaled to stop the sound.
Then he pulled Fang Shenyan out of the living room.
Outside the courtyard, Xiaolan took the three of Tongguan to the guest room.
Yu Guoze took out two Bluetooth headphones with a fresh look and gave them one to Fang Shenyan.
"This is a wiretapping machine. I always feel that this old lady looks like a human and seventy-sixth-sixth-something like a ghost.
Even we knew the itinerary from the hotel, so we sent someone to pick it up.
We must have found the right place of the mission, but it takes some effort to find out the truth."
Then he began to listen carefully to the sound on the other end, with a little puzzled face.
"Hey? Why is there no movement at all?"
Fang Shenyan was also listening with his headphones. After a moment, his face turned dark and he pushed Yu Guo in a daze.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Since there is a wiretap, why not put it on the old woman or Chen Fu.
Will their secret be discussed on the countertop of the living room?"
...
"Xiaolan, it seems that you are not old."
Chang Nian smiled on her face and greeted Xiaolan next to her softly.
Xiaolan seemed a little afraid of Chang Nian's temperament, shrank her neck and accelerated her pace.
There is even less answer to the question you often think about.
Chang Nian couldn't help but feel embarrassed. She was not a very kind-hearted woman.
Now I finally got down and was turned away again.
While walking, she secretly wondered if Xiaolan was tied up directly, would it be much easier to obtain information?
During this period, Tao Xiaoyi also contributed a lot.
But no matter how tempted, Xiaolan just bit her lip and said nothing.
Gradually, both women in the team lost interest.
Chang Nian's eyes were a little confused. Looking at Xiaolan's tender back, she began to think about it.
In fact, her personality is much more complicated than Tongguan.
Tongguan is indeed capable, but it also has weaknesses, that is, it is resourceful but has few decisions, and is a little indecisive.
Just like in the last mission, if he could give up his concerns about Li Xing earlier, maybe the time to complete the mission could be advanced.
But without certainty, he would rather be in a stalemate in the corridor.
Chang Nian is more resolute and the boundary between right and wrong is not rigid in her mind.
To a certain extent, she is willing to use any means to achieve her goal.
Of course, the bottom line of doing things is definitely higher than that of Ji Li and others.
Just like at this moment, she slowly raised her arm and was confident that she would take Xiaolan down within half a second.
