Chapter 51 A knock on the door in the middle of the night
The car flashed past, and Cheng Mai quickly looked away.
After returning home, Cheng Mai lay down directly to catch up on her sleep. She had been tense in Fengcheng, and it was only at this moment that she really relaxed.
Meng An asked her to have a good rest, and he would stay here to guard her.
Yi Nian also yelled for her to rest so that he could protect Cheng Mai.
He is young and boasts a lot.
Cheng Mai slept deeply this time, but not peacefully. She could always see some blurry scenes. She tried to get closer to see more clearly, but as she got closer, those scenes would fade away.
Step by step, go further and further.
There is a Sanskrit sound ringing in my ears, very thick.
Gradually, it seems that some people are raising flags...
Cheng Mai walked all the way forward and stepped on the air. She screamed. When someone grabbed her wrist, she realized that she had reached the edge of the cliff. She looked up and saw the only clear person around her.
"Boss." Cheng Mai called.
Shang Xingjian had a bit of a smile, but her appearance gradually changed.
He changed into something she didn't recognize. The man opened and closed his lips as if he said something, and then pushed Cheng Mai off the cliff.
"Ah..." Cheng Mai suddenly woke up.
It's still dark.
The moonlight was shining brightly outside the window. Cheng Mai stood up and walked over, opening the window and trying to use the autumn wind to take away the cold sweat on his body.
She must have been too tired recently to have such a strange dream.
There was a knock on the door. Cheng Mai took a deep breath and went to open the door.
Meng An stood at the door with a thought, looking up and down Cheng Mai. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with him, he still asked: "Have a nightmare?"
When Cheng Mai saw Meng An, his anxious heart calmed down a lot, "Maybe it's because he's too tired."
Meng An looked at her room uneasily and found no problem.
"Get up and have something to eat."
"Master made egg custard, it's particularly delicious." Yi Nian said and licked his tongue, obviously having eaten it.
"So good, I happen to be hungry." Cheng Mai said approvingly, and followed Meng An and the others to the living room.
The egg custard is soft, smooth and sweet, with a few drops of sesame oil added, making it tastier than any restaurant.
"It's delicious, I like it." Cheng Mai was satisfied with the meal, which gave Meng An enough face.
A smile appeared on Meng An's lips, "I liked it when you were a child."
Cheng Mai paused while eating the egg custard, knowing that Meng An was talking about her two thousand years of life. She had no memory, but her father remembered everything.
Just as Cheng Mai was thinking, someone knocked on the door.
Cheng Mai looked up at the time. It was two-thirty in the morning. Who would come here at this time?
Business Brief?
That's impossible, he never knocks on the door so politely when he comes in.
Cheng Mai never opened the door, and the knock on the door kept coming.
There are regular three-and-a-half pauses, like a mechanical knocking on the door.
Cheng Mai looked at Meng An and didn't intend to open the door.
At this time and in this way, it doesn't sound like a normal person.
Yi Nian climbed down from Meng An's shoulder, ran to the door with short legs and leaned against the door to listen. The sound outside continued, with the same pause of three and one.
Yi Nian paused at the door for a while before running back and crawling back to Meng An's shoulder, "I saw it, it was a woman, a dumb woman."
woman?
"Ghost? Demon?" Cheng Mai asked.
Yi Nian shook his little head, "It's a human being."
The master taught him how to distinguish between evil things, spiritual animals and humans. Cheng Mai looked at Meng An, "Father?"
"Open the door."
With Meng An's permission, Cheng Mai walked to the door and asked, "Who is it?"
Dong dong dong, dong dong dong…
There were still three knocks on the door.
"If you don't tell who it is, I won't open the door." Cheng Mai looked out of the peephole and saw that the door was empty. She looked at Yi Nian with suspicion.
Xiao Yi Nian immediately raised his hand and swore, "I really heard it, it's a human being."
After Xiao Yinian finished speaking, the knocking on the door outside stopped, and the sounds of heavy objects falling to the ground were heard one after another.
Cheng Mai frowned slightly and asked Yang Fan to come over and install a monitor at her door tomorrow.
After thinking again and again, Cheng Mai opened the door. As soon as he opened a small gap, the woman lying at the door fell into the home.
Cheng Mai took a step back, and the face of the woman who fell on the ground was revealed.
"Oh, I know her. She went to Xuanhe yesterday." Xiao Yi Nian pointed to the woman on the ground with his little finger and said, he remembered her well.
"Luo Linwen." Meng An said.
Luo Linwen?
Cheng Mai seemed to have heard it somewhere.
"Shen Yuanbai's ex-wife." Meng An saw her confusion and added another sentence.
Cheng Mai suddenly realized, no wonder he felt familiar.
"But why is she here?" Cheng Mai looked at the woman lying on the ground and had no intention of dragging the person in. She didn't know whether it was a human or a ghost, and she would never risk herself.
Meng An lowered his eyes and looked at Luo Linwen, his eyes scanning her whole body, "Puppetry."
Cheng Mai had seen this in the case files of Xuanhe Technology. It was not an evil spell, but it could temporarily turn people into puppets and make them driven away by him.
But because the time for puppetry is limited, it is usually used to do pranks.
So someone used puppetry to get Luo Linwen to find her?
Cheng Mai looked at the elevator outside the door. There was a family behind the elevator.
One elevator per household, each owner can only open the elevator on his or her own floor.
Since he is a puppet, he came up on his own.
Cheng Mai thought as he passed Luo Linwen and walked out.
Across the elevator is another house. The door is open at the moment, the lights are bright inside, and there is no sense of danger.
Cheng Mai was watching when the woman lying on the ground woke up.
After Luo Linwen woke up, she was confused about where she was. She seemed a little annoyed, but she still looked normal.
Cheng Mai watched Luo Linwen get up but didn't speak immediately.
Instead, Luo Linwen stood up and looked at Cheng Mai, "I'm sorry, did I do anything to disturb you just now?"
Speak clearly, rationally, and politely.
Cheng Mai shook his head, "Are you okay?"
Luo Linwen adjusted her pajamas to make herself look more respectable, "I have been suffering from nocturnal symptoms recently. I'm sorry to disturb you."
"Recently?" Cheng Mai looked at Luo Linwen without any trace.
Beautiful and intellectual, she can keep herself as elegant and polite as possible even under such circumstances.
So before she went to Shen's house to cause trouble, and everything that happened recently, it was all because someone used puppetry on her.
"Yes, recently, but don't worry, I will move to another place tomorrow and won't disturb you anymore." Luo Linwen pinched her forehead. In fact, she should have moved today, but because of Qin Mai's incident, she Not in time.
"Miss Luo..." When Luo Linwen was about to go back, Cheng Mai stopped her.
Luo Linwen suddenly stopped and looked at Cheng Mai with confusion, "Do you know me?"
Cheng Mai extended his hand in a friendly manner, "Xuanhe Technology, Cheng Mai."
Instinctively, she sided with Luo Linwen when it came to Qin Mai and Luo Linwen.
