Chapter 72 Check in
"Then who do you think is the murderer?" Poppy asked with interest.

Yang Wenbin straightened his body and turned to Poppy: "Why didn't I see you care so much about our case before?"

Poppy replied without blinking: "I don't care about the case, I care about you."

This woman... is just incredible.

Yang Wenbin didn't answer any more, just turned around and silently put the things beside the bed into his luggage.But just when he was about to pick up the backpack, he suddenly felt a piercing pain in his calf, his feet went limp, and he fell straight down.

"Be careful!" Poppy had quick eyes and quick hands, and grabbed Yang Wenbin's head before it hit the corner of the bed, but she was also staggered by Yang Wenbin's weight and the inertia of falling to the ground, and finally both of them fell to the ground. Very embarrassed.

"Sorry..." Yang Wenbin was very embarrassed. He put his hands on the ground and wanted to stand up, but was pushed back by Poppy.

"Your leg." Poppy said calmly, "the ankle of the left foot has serious soft tissue contusion, and the knee joint has synovitis. Your condition is really not suitable for running alone in the wilderness at night to search for corpses. "

This woman's face is really delicate, because the distance is too close, Yang Wenbin can even see clearly every slender eyelash on Poppy's eyelid.

It's really too close.

"Thank you, but I understand my own body." Yang Wenbin propped up his body and wanted to get rid of the shackles of Poppy.

"I don't think so." Poppy stared at Yang Wenbin relentlessly, with an indescribable sadness in her eyes, "If you continue to spoil yourself like this, sooner or later you will collapse. Whether it is physical or mental Dr. Yang, when I said I cared about you, I really cared about you."

"Really?" Yang Wenbin looked at Poppy and said lightly, "Then why didn't you collapse?"

Poppy was speechless for a moment, Yang Wenbin took this opportunity to break free from Poppy, and staggered to his feet.

"Thank you for your concern, but I should go." Yang Wenbin picked up his backpack, "Yan Junli and the others should have been waiting for me downstairs."

As he spoke, Yang Wenbin limped and walked out the door.

"Because I don't want you to become like me!" Poppy shouted.

Yang Wenbin paused and stopped.

"You shouldn't have to go through this, and you are not from our world at all." Poppy's tone even contained a hint of pleading, "Doctor Yang, this is the last time I persuade you, before you get stuck in it Run away quickly, stay away from these things, and return to Minghai Hospital to be an ordinary surgeon. Otherwise, you will regret it."

"I shouldn't have gone through this?" Yang Wenbin suddenly felt a flame of anger ignited in his chest. He suddenly turned his head and looked directly at Poppy, and said loudly, "Did I have any choice? I never thought of stepping into the poppy." "Your" world, this world came to me first! It was the clown who followed my ass to provoke me, do you mean to let me sit and wait for death?"

Poppy looked at him silently, and the atmosphere in the air was momentarily stiff.

"Wen Bin! Did something happen up there?"

Soon after, Yan Junli's voice came from downstairs.

"No! I'll go down right away!" Yang Wenbin answered, picked up his backpack, and went downstairs without looking back.

At around six o'clock in the morning, the three of them packed up all their luggage and moved into the Rose County Manor - under the roof of this strange and indifferent family.It was a full week from when they lived in the manor to when Yang Wenbin successfully solved the case. When Yan Junli recalled this week after everything was over, he had mixed feelings in his heart. But now, they only need to worry about how to deal with this strange man. Just get along with the family.

The strange thing is that after living in the manor, Yang Wenbin seemed to have completely forgotten about the murder, but casually chatted with the people in the manor and played with the two children.And this kind of behavior also eased the hostility of the people in the manor towards them to a certain extent.Needless to say, the old housekeeper and Yu Yongyi, even Ma Xiangtao's frown gradually became flatter.Meng Yingjun liked Yang Wenbin and Li Hong more and more, and often pestered them to play with him.

But in Yan Junli's view, these illusions of calm are just a way for the family to escape the horrific murder.

"Brother Li Hong, brother Li Hong! I saw a rainbow on the lawn in the front yard!" Meng Yingjun hugged a rabbit puppet, bouncing and tugging at the corner of Li Hong's clothes, "Look at it! Come quickly!" Come and see!"

"Okay, okay, where is it? I'll go and have a look." Li Hong is the best at dealing with children. He took Meng Yingjun's little hand and walked to the front yard, just in time to see Yang Wenbin who was sitting on the steps staring at his phone. "Doctor Yang, do you want to come together?"

Yang Wenbin waved his hand: "There is still work to do."

Now the little handsome guy was not happy, he stretched his face long, and ran over to pull Yang Wenbin's sleeve: "Go, go! Super-beautiful rainbow!"

Yang Wenbin put down the phone helplessly, reached out and rubbed Meng Yingjun's little head: "Okay, okay, I really can't do anything about you."

It wasn't until lunch time that Ma Xiangtao yelled several times, and the three of them returned to the house noisily.

"You're cheating, you can't shoot better than me!" Meng Yingjun said indignantly, "No one can shoot the ball better than me except brother Yinghua!"

"Of course it's because I'm stronger than him!" Li Hong said triumphantly.

"Okay, okay, what are you showing off with a child." Yang Wenbin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and patted the seat beside him, "Sit down and eat."

Ge Tianlu smiled "hehe": "This child is very active since he was a child. He was born in one birth, but he is much more difficult to manage than his brother."

Ma Xiangtao brought a sumptuous lunch to the dining table. Although her personality was not flattering, her cooking skills were quite top-notch.Li Hong, the No. [-] foodie, was full of praise after taking the first bite.

"It's delicious! It's even better than the ones in restaurants!"

"Many of the ingredients are grown by us in the backyard, and the taste is certainly not bad." Hearing the praise from the guests, Yu Yongyi couldn't help but smile, "Eat more if it tastes good."

Yan Junli picked up a chopstick of chicken and put it into his mouth: "Well, it's really delicious! It's just a little bit spicy."

"Ms. Ma is not a local, is she? The cooking of chicken looks very similar to the cuisine of City A." Yang Wenbin asked suddenly.

"That's right, my hometown is in City A." Ma Xiangtao said, "You know a lot about it."

"City A?" Li Hong asked curiously, "City A is a place with such a high standard of living, why do you come to such a suburban villa as a maid?"

Ma Xiangtao hesitated to speak, and just when he was about to say something, the twin brother Meng Yinghua, who had a similar face to Meng Yingjun, came down the stairs.

"Brother! I thought you wouldn't come down for dinner again today!" Meng Yingjun immediately put down his chopsticks and ran towards his brother, "Are you feeling better?"

"It's much better these days." Meng Yinghua said with a smile.Yang Wenbin noticed that this usually taciturn and even hesitant young man only became more natural, even gentle, when he spoke to his younger brother.

Yan Junli moved closer to Yu Yongyi who was at the side, and asked quietly: "What's wrong with that child?"

"Since seeing the corpses of Master and Madam that day, Young Master Yinghua has always locked himself in his room, and we have taken all three meals upstairs." Yu Yongyi replied softly, "Ask him what's wrong and he I didn't say anything, I just said I was not feeling well."

"Then you should come down and play with brother Li Hong when I shoot football." Meng Yingjun said with regret, "He's better than you!"

But what was unexpected was that Meng Yinghua not only restrained his smile, but also looked at Li Hong with a vigilant look. He pulled his brother behind him, and said word by word: "Don't be with this group of people! They It will bring misfortune to this family!"

Meng Yinghua's unceremonious words made everyone present stunned for a moment, and the atmosphere became very stiff for a moment. The people at the table looked at each other, and no one knew what to say.

At this moment, Yan Junli spoke.

"Why didn't I think we were so scary?" Yan Junli raised one eyebrow, bent down and hooked his fingers at Meng Yinghua, "Hey, your name is Yinghua, right? Come here."

"What are you doing?" Meng Yinghua's eyes were wary, but she still walked over step by step.

"Look here." Yan Junli took a napkin from the dining table, and showed Meng Yinghua the front and back, and then he shook it quickly, and the white paper suddenly turned into a paper crane.

Everyone exclaimed and applauded, and even though the boy didn't say anything, he still showed an expression of surprise.

"I didn't even know you could do magic tricks."

In the evening, the three of them walked upstairs to the guest room after dinner.On the top of the tall and wide old hall is a corridor with railings, and the wide old mahogany staircase winds up.Above their heads are blackened wooden beams with smoke marks, which makes people worry about whether the ceiling can withstand the aging of the house.

"It's nothing special, it's just a little trick I learned from my dad. It's okay to deceive children, but I know I can't deceive you with your sharp eyes." Yan Junli smiled and opened the door of the room.The room was in good condition and spacious, probably deliberately chosen out of respect for the guests.An old-fashioned fireplace burned quietly, with only the faint sound of the logs in the fire, and the tall and narrow paneled windows, the oak panelling, the stuffed stag's head, and the coat of arms on the wall, all bathed in a central wall of the room. In the dim halo emitted by the lamp, a figure is reflected in the dim light.

"Gentlemen." The figure stood up, and it turned out to be Yu Yongyi, the male servant, "I'll boil the bath water for you, and we'll go into the bathroom."
