Chapter 43, The Mystery of Time(1/2)

The landlord's strange words made Yang Ke suddenly feel his hair stand upright.

He finally realized that the encounter with the landlord in the past two days was not accidental, but that she had been guarding herself.

What exactly does the landlord want to do?

Do you want to date him?

Or is it just a simple pervert?

Or maybe there is any other purpose.

Yang Ke knew that he could not stay here for too long, so the landlord must have heard the sound of him going up the stairs.

If you don't go up for too long, it will arouse the landlord's suspicion.

Yang Ke retracted his ability to share the same feeling and walked upstairs with a tough bullet.

As soon as he walked to the corner of the third floor, the landlord walked out of the house with a bag of garbage.

"Isn't this handsome guy Xiao Yang? He's getting off work so late."

The landlord smiled very naturally, as if it was really just a simple encounter.

But Yang Ke was sweating coldly on his back. The more natural the landlord acted, the more terrifying he felt.

"Yes, Aunt Xiong, there are more things happening today."

"Oh, are there blood on your body?"

"No, it's just like blood. We played a game today. I was hit the most, so I was sprayed all over. Aunt Bear, I went up first. The smell of this piece must be taken quickly."

"Go and go, I have to throw the trash quickly, haha, young people have to be more energetic."

The landlord said and patted Yang Ke on the back, which scared him so much that he hurriedly tightened his waist and abdomen and accelerated his pace to go upstairs.

Damn, what exactly does she want to do?

As soon as Yang Ke walked to the corner of the fourth floor, he quickly accelerated his pace to go upstairs.

But he always felt that someone was following him, so the speed became faster and faster. He went to the sixth floor, opened the door and locked the door, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

If he had the strength of the Ku Sect, he wouldn't have to be so scared.

Yang Ke is still struggling with the issue of level and strength.

He turned on the lights inside the house and suddenly heard something sounded on the stairs outside.

"I'm going, it's not that the landlord has followed, right?"

Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will only grow bigger and bigger.

Although the sound disappeared after a moment, Yang Ke was really unable to feel at ease, so he used the common sense to gain the landlord's sight again.

In the dark and narrow alley downstairs, the landlord hummed a cheerful song and threw the garbage in his hand into the trash can.

Her emotions were pleasant and relaxed, and she hummed to a happy place, and even took a few small steps.

"Little handsome guy Yang is back, Little handsome guy Yang is back~"

The landlord returned to the third floor house. The place where she lived was not isolated by a single room, but was a full 150 square meters of three bedrooms, two living rooms, one kitchen and two bathrooms.

Yang Ke found that the landlord's house was very quiet, and she seemed to be the only one living here.

Moreover, the furniture in the landlord's house is very simple, with the tables, cabinets, and sofas basically empty.

The landlord took out a new garbage bag from the living room cabinet and put it on the trash can. Then she looked around and threw the garbage bags with a pair of brand new shoes, then pulled some toilet paper and threw it in. Then she tied the garbage bags and put them at the door. Then she returned to the bedroom with satisfaction.

The furnishings in her bedroom are even simpler. A bedside table and a double bed with no beds but only hard beds are the whole bedroom.

There is a family photo on the bedside table, but except for the landlord, the other four people in the photo were all blackened.

The landlord lay flat on the bed, put his hands on his abdomen, and within a minute, he fell asleep with a smile on his face.

Very peaceful.

It's like dead.

Yang Ke waited for a while, and after confirming that the landlord was really asleep, he withdrew his gaze, sat on the bed, and fell into silence.

What is the situation?

He remembered that when he first moved here, the landlord lived with her grandson and husband.

The landlord has a passionate personality. He collects rent every day, chats with neighbors, pays attention to the latest current affairs, and then picks up his grandson to and from school. This is almost all her life.

At that time, Yang Ke was very envious and fantasized that he could live such a leisurely life one day.

But now, the landlord's strange behavior and the extremely deserted situation in her family are reminding Yang Ke that something must have happened to the landlord's house.

Is it related to healing blood?

The consequence of using healing blood should be animalization, rather than showing weird behavior like a landlord.

Yang Ke remembered that the landlord accidentally said the word "Chapter". Could she be brainwashed by someone and then used it to monitor herself?

For example, Zhang Tongtong.

Since he recovered his memory, Yang Ke realized that he was likely to have lived under the surveillance of Zhang Tongtong for the past seven years.

Once Zhang Tongtong learns that he has recovered his memory, the stalemate of these seven years will definitely be broken instantly.

So he had to pretend to be the same as before, not knowing why Yang Pengfei was imprisoned in a mental hospital, not knowing why his mother could recover suddenly, not knowing that he had met Liang Jun seven years ago, not even knowing the deal between him and Luo Ming and Zhang Tongtong.

The skeletons in Room 2 must not be handed over to him.

A moment of sleepiness came, and Yang Ke yawned a big yawn, and he felt that he could not bear it anymore.

After experiencing so many things today, if he doesn't sleep, he is afraid that he will die suddenly.

But before that, Yang Ke still has one more thing to do.

"Little Skeleton, come out."

The little skeleton came out of thin air from the ground. Yang Ke handed it the black top hat, and then said, "Put the top hat back and come out again. I have something to do to ask you for help."

The little skeleton shook his head and disappeared.

Yang Ke quickly found the English dictionary on his desk where he had eaten dust.

When he was so angry, he bought this English dictionary, but he didn't expect it to be useful for a day.

The little skeleton appeared again, Yang Ke handed the English dictionary to the little skeleton and said, "Help me put this book quietly on the desk, and never be discovered by the one-eyed book."

"What, you said that the One-Eyed Book did not allow it to do this? It just said that it would not allow it to bring anything outside, but it did not say that it would not allow it to send something inside, right? And this is a book, I can't kill people or unlock it, and at most I can take a look when I'm bored."

"You also know that I don't know the words in the books. It's easy to be bored when I'm alone, and you have to make me a little bit of something that can pass the time."

The little skeleton thought about it and it seemed that it was indeed the case.

So it took the English dictionary and quickly disappeared.

After successfully cheating the little skeleton over, Yang Ke's mood became much smoother.

He no longer thought about the connection between Zhang Tongtong and the landlord, and went to bed directly.

...

...

Yang Ke opened his eyes on the rocking chair in the study, without any discomfort under his butt.

It seems that One-Eyed Book did not continue to sleep here, and it was not in the study.

Yang Ke didn't go to find it. Given their current situation, it would be better to be out of sight and not upset.

Seven years of grudges cannot be easily written off.

He saw the little skeleton standing in front of him empty-handedly, looked at the desk again, and asked in confusion: "Little skeleton, where is my English dictionary?"

The little skeleton pointed to the pieces of paper in the trash can next to the desk and shook his head.

Oh, it turned out that it was bitten by the One-Eyed Book.

"Didn't I tell you to be careful?"

"You said that when you come back, it is next to you? When I go, can it hear my voice outside of my dream?"

Yang Ke flipped through the trash can and found that his English dictionary was not only torn to pieces, but also had a lot of disgusting mucus on it.

One-eyed book is amazing.

There is no way, it seems that Fred still has to translate.

However, before this, the things he recovered from his memory still need to be confirmed.

Yang Ke searched for the stack of books placed on the desk and quickly found the letter he had read in his memory.

The author of this letter was Fred, and the recipient was the original owner of the building, Earl Harlow Caberbell. The letter was written on August 1, 1764. It was about twenty-two years apart from Fred's thought 1786.

Combined with Kagel's observation diary, Harlow Cabernet was forced to leave St. Knowles because he lost his power in the past twenty-two years.

Afterwards, Kagel bought the place and renovated it.

So the Hunter Dream that Yang Ke entered seven years ago was a building that Harlow Cabernet had not left yet, and it was not the same time as the Hunter Dream that he entered now.
To be continued...
