Strange talk about the rules: I fast travel with my deskmate

"Okay, let's go."

Xiong Qingqing was relieved a lot. Now, even if Rule [-] came to her, she would have a way to deal with it.

[Rule [-], when walking, please pay attention to your footsteps, if you find that the footsteps are wrong, please don’t panic, this is a normal phenomenon]

As soon as they reached the stairs on the second floor, they met an elderly grandpa, holding a pure white rag, wiping the blood stains on the wall and the dust on the murals.

But even though he kept wiping it carefully, the rag in his hand was still not stained with a trace of dirt.

Shang Guanglei's footsteps stopped, and his heart beat wildly.

He knew that there was no such person in the Jiang family.

Xiong Qingqing also stopped, but at this moment she could not retreat, she could only move forward.

"Grandpa, why did you come out to work before dawn?" Xiong Qingqing asked.

Shang Guanglei looked at her in surprise, didn't she realize that the old man in front of her was not human at all?
The old man stopped what he was doing, turned around slowly, and looked at Xiong Qingqing.

His eye sockets were pitch black, his eyeballs could not be seen at all, the muscles of his cheeks were severely sunken, and his lips were sunken deep into his mouth, like a shriveled corpse.

Shang Guanglei gasped in fright, took a step back involuntarily, and almost fell down the stairs, but fortunately, Xiong Qingqing grabbed his arm in time.

At that moment, the wound on her shoulder was torn open again, and blood gushed out.

The pain invaded her brain, but she didn't have time to pay attention to it, so she could only pretend to be nonchalant, and patted Shang Guanglei's shoulder lightly.

"Cousin, go upstairs and rest first." Xiong Qingqing said.

"I……"

Shang Guanglei hesitated, not knowing how to make a choice.

Leaving Xiong Qingqing... No, it's too dangerous to leave Miss Qi here alone.

"Cousin, what's the matter with you? Aren't you sleepy? Go upstairs first."

Xiong Qingqing's voice was gentle, but his expression was very anxious, and he kept winking at him.

Shang Guanglei took a deep breath and analyzed the situation in his mind. Although the old man in front of him was unknown and terrifying, Xiong Qingqing had the space to escape at any time.

Perhaps, if he stayed here, he would only be a hindrance.

"Okay, then I'll go up first."

After hesitating for a while, Shang Guanglei gave a response, and Xiong Qingqing was getting impatient.

"Well, you go first."

Seeing Shang Guanglei went upstairs, Xiong Qingqing faced the shriveled old man again.

"Grandpa, why don't you talk? It's too early, you should go back to your room and rest first." Xiong Qingqing pretended to think that he was a servant in the castle, so that he could talk to him in a peaceful and normal manner.

At the same time, she turned on the space button and call button, ready to run away at any time, and let Xu Lingze notice every move here.

"Grandpa, what's the matter with you?" Xiong Qingqing asked again.

The shriveled old man didn't move, because he couldn't see his eyeballs, so Xiong Qingqing couldn't be sure if his eyes were on her, or... he couldn't see anything.

After a while, Xiong Qingqing took a deep breath, seeing the morning glow gradually rising from the east, and planned to communicate with him in another way.

"Hello, grandpa, I am the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. My name is Jiang Qi. Excuse me, why are you here?" Xiong Qingqing asked.

The old man's hand trembled slightly, he raised his arm and stretched it tremblingly towards Xiong Qingqing's direction.

Xiong Qingqing didn't dodge immediately, because she wanted to know in time what the "weird talk" in front of her would do, what she could do, and how she would hurt ordinary people.

Soon, the old man put down his hand again, turned around slowly, and continued to wipe the blood on the wall.

Xiong Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, at this time Xu Lingze's voice also came from the call button.

"Qingqing, just now you said that you are Jiang Qi, did he react?" Xu Lingze asked.

"cough……"

Xiong Qingqing pretended to clear his throat and responded to his words.

"I guess, he is probably from the Qiu family, and this house originally belonged to the Qiu family." Xu Lingze said.

After hearing his words, Xu Lingze immediately remembered the two names mentioned by Bandit Jiang.

Qiu Jingtian, Qiu Haiyun.

Qiu Haiyun's name sounds like a woman, but the person in front of her is a man.

She's taking a gamble.

"Hi, may I ask you... are you Qiu Jingtian?" Xiong Qingqing asked.

The old man's hand wiping the wall paused again, and immediately returned to normal.

Aware of this scene, Xiong Qingqing thought that he might have guessed right, or that Qiu Jingtian was someone the grandfather in front of him knew.

"I think you look familiar. I feel like I've seen it somewhere before. Do you know my mother? Her name is Qiu Mo." Xiong Qingqing said again.

"Little Qi."

The old man suddenly made a sound. Although the old man was not clear, he could barely distinguish it.

"You...you know my name? Grandpa, do you know me?" Xiong Qingqing pretended to be surprised.

"Little Qi, I left everything to you. Everything here should be yours. You should cherish it." The old man said.

Xiong Qingqing shook his head lightly, as if he didn't understand what he said.

"Xiao Qi, everything here is yours, every plant, tree, and speck of dust is yours. Xiao Qi, if you want to keep it, you must keep it." The old man said again.

"Is this the house you are talking about? Who are you?" Xiong Qingqing asked anxiously.

"Little Qi, everything here is yours. It should be yours. You can't give up..." The old man answered the question inappropriately.

"You, are you my grandfather? Are you talking about this house? But, this house is not in my name. When I was young, my father transferred the house to me." Xiong Qingqing said.

"No, they don't get it, they don't get it..."

As the old man spoke, he slowly disappeared.

"Grandpa, grandpa?"

Seeing all this, Xiong Qingqing sighed helplessly.

At this time, Shang Guanglei came down from the stairs on the third floor, and he also saw everything that happened just now.

Xiong Qingqing glanced back at him and asked, "Why didn't you go back to your room?"

"I was worried that something might happen to you, and I thought... what if I can help?" Shang Guanglei said.

"If you encounter this kind of thing in the future, you must listen to me and leave directly. Your existence will only hinder me." Xiong Qingqing said.

"okay, I get it."

After Shang Guanglei finished speaking, he walked to the place where the old man had been standing, and touched the blood stains and murals on the wall with his fingers.

The blood is still there, and the dust on the murals has not been removed.

"This person knows me, he should be from the Qiu family." Xiong Qingqing said.

"Well, but I haven't seen him." Shang Guanglei said.

At this time, Xu Lingze opened the door, holding his computer in his hands.

It seems that he has seen everything that happened just now through surveillance.

Monk Guanglei Xiong Qingqing walked over and reunited with Xu Lingze and Leng Zongming.

"On the monitor, can you see that grandfather just now?" Shang Guanglei asked.

"I can't see it, but I can feel it. There are people in that place. Otherwise, Jiang Qi is talking to himself there, wouldn't he be a lunatic?" Xu Lingze said.

"It will be dawn soon, let's act quickly, there is still a lot to clean up outside." Xiong Qingqing said.
