Maid's Diary: Devil Master, Please Behave - Chapter 54
Chapter 54 Ghost Hunt 2
“Swimming pool? Forget it, let’s continue to take a look.” Mu Nan said, his eyes landing on the gray beam in the depths of the bush path. “The summer is long and there is still a long time before dusk. I will take the time to investigate the situation. If this is a man-made prank, there will definitely be evidence left behind.”
“Evidence? Damn, do you think this is a TV drama? If I had known, I would have brought my bodyguards. My bodyguards are all retired veterans.” Lu Han also saw the beams in the bushes, an old warehouse. There was still a chill coming from the inside out in the bright sunshine.
Mu Nan ignored this kid’s nagging and stared at his surroundings with his excellent eyesight.
The warehouse on the west side was in the woods, surrounded by tall and dense banyan elms. From afar, it looked like a bird’s egg in a tree nest. A broad road covered with grass leads to this place and stretches to the verdant coastal mountains.
“Why can’t we find a wider flat ground if the warehouse is to be built in the woods?” Mu Nan tilted his head and asked the youth who was twisting his arm.
“The architect my mother hired back then was an Impressionist master. In order to pursue the harmony between man and nature, he specifically built the warehouse in the forest. If it wasn’t for my mother pulling on the reputation of the director to stop him, this Impressionist master would still have planned to build the warehouse in the tree.” Lu Han carefully replied, not noticing a string of black lines rolling down Mu Nan’s forehead.
Sure enough, the aesthetic taste of the aristocratic society was so refreshing and refined.
Mu Nan walked to the entrance of the warehouse and sighed with emotion. This Impressionist Master was indeed a master. The entire warehouse was built by him to resemble the Apollo Temple. It was square and equipped with large white stone pillars of Mediterranean style.
It didn’t look like a warehouse, but rather like a place to beg for Buddha.
The gate was ten meters long. A tall banyan tree was planted on the side, and a branch of the banyan tree hung obliquely on the door. Mu Nan looked around and quickly found the monitor that was the first to discover the shameless ghost. It was about 20 meters away from the gate and was guarding the banyan tree.
“Stay at the door. I’ll go in and take a look. If anything happens, just scream. I’ll come and save you in time.” Mu Nan looked at Lu Han unfathomably. This little brother’s handsome face was deathly pale, and he shrank back like a frightened kitten.
Lu Han didn’t have the dignity of a noble young master at this time. Normally, he hated Mu Nan so much. Now, he was the only straw. Even if he died, he wouldn’t part ways with Mu Nan.
Helplessly, Mu Nan could only put on an expression of educating the children and earnestly instruct, “That terrifying shameless ghost might be inside, so I can’t take you away. You can still run faster when you’re outside, think about it, can you?”
Lu Han thought seriously for a while before letting go of his claws and locking them by the door. “Brother, you have to hurry up. I’ll leave if you don’t come out in half an hour. I’ll let you be friends with ghosts alone.”
Mu Nan nodded casually and pushed open the door. It was as if a mouse had drilled into the door.
The warehouse was a gigantic, hollow building with the appearance of the Temple of Apollo, a complex and chaotic heart. Mu Nan blinked his eyes and turned on all the lights above the warehouse. There was a burst of light. Under the bright white light were neatly arranged expensive equipment. Stacks upon stacks of incomparably tall ceilings.
Looking up, Mu Nan wiped the corners of his mouth and saw that the market value of these equipment was at least a billion. As she sighed, she planned to bring a group of civilians to rob her one day to save her space.
He carefully stepped on the floor, originally wanting to see if there was any dust on the floor, but he discovered that the clean floor was completely dust-free and self-cleaning. Not to mention the dust, there weren’t even flies’ corpses. He closed his eyes and felt that there was actually a ventilated air conditioner that kept the temperature constant all year round.
Mu Nan was now confused. According to her traditional detective thinking, she started with dust and footprints. However, this place was clean and directly interrupted all of her thoughts.
Helplessly, he continued to walk inside, his sharp eyes looking around until he finally found something black on the floor in front of him. Mu Nan’s eyes lit up and he ran over excitedly. He crouched down and prepared to see what kind of cute little black-furred animal it was.
A ball of black hair.
There was a strange smell, as if it was a faint stench of blood.
All black, pure natural and pollution-free, the hair is jet black and shiny.
Mu Nan squatted silently for a while. His heart was cold and his hair stood on end.
She stood up silently and looked up at the high equipment. The white light of the fluorescent lamp was dazzling, outlining the flat outline of the equipment. A thin strand of hair was strangely dazzling. Mu Nanfei lowered his head as well. He turned around and flew out of the gate. As he walked, he quickened his pace, and in the end, he turned into a mad rush.
Holy shit!
This hair is human hair!
This high-tech floor regularly cleans the rubbish on the floor, what does that mean? This meant that this ball of hair had fallen off not long ago! That meant that the shameless monster was right here, staring at her with invisible eyes!
Even if they weren’t ghosts, if they dared to hide in this crappy place for no reason, they might be some mutated dangerous creature!
Whether it was Mu Nan’s illusion or not, she seemed to hear the continuous sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, like a wild beast crawling on the ground with its flippers, dull and fast.
When he rushed to the door, Lu Han saw Mu Nan coming out and hurriedly stood up, “What’s wrong? Did you see a ghost?”
Mu Nan suddenly turned around and saw that the corridor was empty. The equipment was quietly placed, and there was no hair or smell of blood, as if it was just an illusion.
Holding his hand on his stomach, which was aching from intense exercise, he cursed in his heart at the abomination of dysmenorrhea. He couldn’t show it in front of Lu Han, so he could only cough dryly twice.
“It’s fine, there’s no problem inside. Let’s hurry back. Gu Yu’s Ze is probably waiting.” Mu Nan gasped for breath. The veins in his mind hadn’t returned yet, and he cursed at himself with hatred for his uselessness. He was shocked at first glance.
She glanced at the sky outside the jungle. The slanting sunset had already landed on the horizon, and the golden and dim yellow sunlight was strangely beautiful here.
Lu Han was eager to leave as he grabbed Mu Nan’s arm and walked out. The two of them returned along the same path. The jungle in the evening was gloomy and cold. Lu Han purposely searched for topics to get rid of the fear in her mind. “What? Did you see something in there just now? Don’t lie to me, my eyes are sharp.”
“It’s very normal inside. There’s only a ball of black human hair. Perhaps the so-called shameless ghost lives in the air.” Mu Nan felt a lingering fear in his heart, and there seemed to be a heavy sound of flippers in his mind. As time passed, the feeling became more intense, and it didn’t seem like an illusion at all.
‘”Hair? What I saw last night was hair and a pitch black body. They walk as fast as the wind ~” Lu Hanyuan widened her eyes and waved her claws. She could not help but raise her voice.
At this time, the green grass shook and the leaves rustled.
A strange sob pierced through the eardrums. Mu Nan and Lu Han turned around almost at the same time and saw strange creatures with black hair and no face floating out of the dark corner! Under the setting sun, the trees were dense and gloomy.
Black hair fluttered about, and a clear, face-less face was gloomy and terrifying. Leaves of grass blocked the lower half of his body, but that strange speed was almost not something a human could possess.
Mu Nan instantly thought of the face-less man in Thousand and Thousand Seeks, and his brain exploded. His speed exceeded that of a human, and he was almost floating about. His face was shameless, his hair was terrifying, and his body was strangely thick black.
So there really are ghosts in this world…
Pouncing on her.
Her footsteps seemed to be filled with lead, and her only weakness was finally exposed. She was afraid of ghosts, she was truly afraid. His entire body stiffened, and his mind went blank.
She didn’t know how the special police of the patrol team would chase away the gloomy shameless ghost in the next critical moment.
She didn’t know how Little Brother Lu Han used his strength to drag her back.
She didn’t know how Gu Yu Ze looked at her with a strange gaze.
How the night in the Azure Sky Mansion darkened, how she stuffed rice into her mouth to eat chicken drumsticks, and went back to her nest to sleep, she did not know.
—
Swimming pool, water fluctuation, figure like a fish out of the pool water, in mid-air over the clear and attractive droplets of water.
A white towel flew over and was firmly caught by Gu Yu’s Ze hand, wiping off the wet water stains on his upper body. He strolled to the lounge chair at the edge of the pool and sat down, his eyes glittering on the sparkling pool water.
It was almost dusk, how was Mu Nan? Gu Yu Ze couldn’t help but laugh when he thought of Mu Nan’s rare retreat, like a little fox that had its claws retreated and looked like a little girl.
“There are two kinds of people in this world. One is an ordinary person. They are afraid of everything, so they are not afraid of everything. The other kind of person is not afraid of anything, so a small matter will make him afraid.” Lin Qingyu was half-lying on a cold chair, her face covered with a copy of Wuthering Heights. Her slender figure was completely exposed under a long white towel.
Gu Yuze withdrew his mischievous smile, turned his head to look at his friend, and raised his eyebrows, “What do you mean?”
“Mu Nan belongs to the latter category. It is precisely because she is not afraid of anything that the only thing she is afraid of will cause her to die without a burial ground.” Lin Qingyu faintly opened the book on her face. Her sandalwood eyes were deep, “Ze, watch out for the consequences.”
Mu Nan was different from other ordinary people. This brat’s courage was that he was made of stones that were invulnerable to fire and water. However, everyone had psychological weaknesses. Mu Nan was afraid of ghosts, but if he was overstimulated one day, he would either be stupid or stupid.
Lin Qingyu, an outsider, could clearly see that Mu Nan might be scared silly this time.
Gu Yu Ze’s eyes were deep and gloomy. His fingers unintentionally clenched the towel to wipe his hair. A light flashed in his mind and he instantly understood what Lin Qingyu meant. But he wasn’t sure yet. Mu Nan even dared to provoke him, and he was afraid of such an illusory thing?
“I don’t believe it. That little slave is very bold. At most, he will teach a lesson in fear.” Gu Yu Ze slowly wiped his chestnut-colored short hair, and a drop of clear water slithered down his fingers and went deep into his arm.
“Ze, something’s wrong, something big has happened! Mu Nan has become a dementia patient.” Lu Han’s voice was clear and full of teenage characteristics as he dripped his feet at the entrance of the pool.
