Chapter 26 Qulian
Huo Manshu heard the car stall and stop at the downstairs of Uncle Tan's house next door.
She also heard the sound of a key opening the door.
Uncle Tan was sent to the police station by her, and he shouldn't be able to come back at this time.
After thinking about it, Huo Manshu got up, opened the curtains beside the bed and took a look at Uncle Tan's house opposite.
A figure in white flashed past the opposite window.
Huo Manshu was certain that it was not either Lao Tan or his wife.
But Uncle Tan and his family have been here for a long time, and no one else has been here before. It’s suspicious that someone suddenly came here, and it happened so coincidentally.
Uncle Tan and his family had helped her, but she couldn't just sit idly by.
After touching the illustrated book on the side and taking out the life-saving amulet, Hao Manshu pulled on her slippers and walked downstairs.
She decided to take a look secretly.
But just as she came downstairs, her doorbell suddenly rang.
It had been a long time since she heard this ringtone. Huo Manshu was startled when she heard it, but she quickly calmed down.
"Who are you looking for?"
Homanshu saw the person coming outside through the camera.
He is a clean and handsome man.
He looked young and had a smile with two dimples. She was certain that she had never seen this person before.
"Hello, I am the son of your next door neighbor. My name is Qu Lian.
I just came home and saw that the situation at home was a bit messy. My parents were not at home. I suspected that there was a thief. I wonder if you heard anything when you live nearby? ”
Qu Lian smiled politely and explained his purpose.
But Huo Manshu turned cold and said, "Nonsense! Your surname is Qu, and the uncle next door's surname is Tan. How can you be his son!"
Huo Manshu felt that scammers these days were too lazy to deal with it.
Qu Lian let out a surprised sound, and then said, "Actually, my full name is Tan Qulian."
Homanshu turned off the camera. There was no doubt that this person was a liar.
If his name is Tan Qulian, then her name is Tan Manshu.
Huo Manshu didn't even need to go out, so she called the police directly.
The doorbell outside the door rang a few more times, and Huo Manshu was too lazy to pay attention.
He pulled on his slippers and went back upstairs, covered himself with a quilt and continued to sleep.
The ringing of the doorbell outside didn't know when. Huo Manshu was drowsy while hugging the quilt when she suddenly felt a cold chill on her back and woke up suddenly.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Qu Lian, who should have been outside, standing at the head of her bed, looking at her condescendingly.
The overly frightened Homanshu was about to shout when he suddenly closed his mouth and swallowed the syllables back into his stomach.
With quick eyesight and quick hands, she picked up the illustrated book in her arms and struggled to take two steps back. Homanshu lowered her eyes and said warily: "How did you get into my house? What is your purpose?"
She didn't notice it at all. If it weren't for her sudden sixth sense, she wouldn't have known when Qu Lian was standing next to her bed.
"Your window is open." Qu Lian pointed at the curtains blowing slightly in the wind next to him, with a smile on his face.
"Are you kidding me? This is the second floor!" Huo Manshu felt threatened by Qu Lian. This person named Qu Lian was very dangerous.
She raised her finger and pointed to the door and said in a cold voice: "I have already called the police. If you are sensible, please leave here immediately."
Just like in the game world, Huo Manshu is also a scumbag in the real world, and being in the same room with Qu Lian makes her very uneasy.
She couldn't beat him.
Together with Qu Lian, Huo Manshu felt as if her life was in the other's hands.
As if afraid that just an insignificant word would not be enough to scare Qu Lian away, Homanshu continued: "If you hurt me, you will be unlucky."
"Oh? So magical?"
Qu Lian seemed to be amused by Huo Manshu's absurd remarks. He rubbed his chin twice with his fingers and said, "In that case, I'd better leave quickly. My luck is not very good to begin with. It won't be worthwhile if I get unlucky again." .”
Qu Lian had a completely joking tone, and Ho Manshu thought he was just mocking her, but she didn't expect Qu Lian to jump directly over the window the next second.
Seeing Qu Lian's dangerous move, Huo Manshu's heart skipped a beat, and her fingers subconsciously clenched the illustrated book in her hand.
Without even bothering to put on shoes, he quickly walked to the window and looked down.
Before she could see clearly what was going on under the window, a dark shadow flashed past her eyes, and Homanshu fell to the ground.
The culprit, Qu Lian, was squatting on the window sill and looking at her with a smile, "We met again. This time, believe me, I came in directly through this window."
Huo Manshu snorted coldly, "I think you are mentally ill!"
"What's going on with you?"
She felt that Qu Lian had a bad mind, "If you have something to say, just tell me."
"Well, since you said so, I'll tell you the truth." Qu Lian, who was still smiling, lost his expression for an instant. Homanshu didn't even see Qu Lian's movements when she saw that he was already in front of her.
Huo Manshu closed her eyes subconsciously.
The expected action didn't happen, and Qu Lian heard a confused sound in his ear.
When Huo Manshu opened her eyes, she saw a protective shield glowing with faint golden light appearing around her. Qu Lian's hand was blocked outside the protective shield and could not go any further.
After only being surprised for a second, Huo Manshu thought that this was the life-saving amulet.
Raising her hand to touch her heart, she breathed a sigh of relief quietly, "If you are wise, leave here now!"
"Interesting?" Qu Lian chewed on these two words playfully, poked the protective shield around Homanshu with a smile, lowered his voice and said casually: "You don't think such a little trick to fool people can scare me, do you?" br>
A little trick to fool people? Huo Manshu felt that Qu Lian was a bit tricky. In his eyes, the life-saving talisman was just a trick to fool people? Does he really know what this is?
She was a little confused, but she didn't show it on her face and sneered, "Then give it a try!"
"Try it? No, I'm scared, I'm scared." Qu Lian laughed, "You are more interesting than others, so I will spare your life."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Huo Manshu looked at Qu Lian's back. This man was dangerous and strange. She couldn't tell which words he said were true and which words were false.
Before she could look away, Qu Lian suddenly turned back.
Huo Manshu only saw Qu Lian's smiling face flash past, and then his whole body was strangled from behind. Qu Lian's smiling voice sounded from behind: "I lied to you, how could you be so innocent and fooled by me?" What about twice?”
Qu Lian lowered his head and leaned close to her ear, "But it's true to say that you are interesting. It's so naive."
