MTL - Monument of Life and Death-Chapter 16 Girl burned to death

  Chapter 16 The Burned Girl

  The little idiot volunteered, "Do you need me to go to the back kitchen to eavesdrop."

  "Don't go, Xiaolan."

Dao Chang almost blurted out, then turned his gaze to Xiaolan and motioned for her to catch up.

  How is it me? I just joined the group, right?

   Xiaolan was completely stunned, but his legs had already moved before his brain could react. Behind the voice sounded the Taoist chief said softly, "Xiaolan is so small that it is not easy to be spotted".

With a lot of grievances and unconfidence, Xiaolan followed the boss and his wife to the basement level, and simply looked around. The layout of this hotel is not special. The first floor is the lobby and restaurant, and the second floor and above are normal hotel rooms. , The kitchen, warehouse, etc. are arranged on the basement floor.

  It shouldn’t be special, Xiaolan thinks about it, he has never seen a few hotels.

  Just now vaguely saw the boss and his wife disappear from the front, Xiao Lan stood on tiptoes looking for it, but did not dare to walk too fast or too obvious, so she could only move sneakily along the wall.

The layout of the basement floor is really messy. A storage room turned around and saw a laundry room. Walking along the laundry room to the end was another turn. Xiaolan hunched around here, and soon forgot that he was. Where did it come from.

  Suddenly, a vague voice reached Xiaolan's ears.

   Xiaolan tensed his muscles and kept the position at the moment motionless, judging the direction of the sound like a radar.

   is the door on the right.

  Moved step by step, Xiaolan felt that the voice became clearer and clearer.

   "Is it crazy? I think it's you!"

  The woman's voice was very excited and harsh, the effect of raising her own voice by an octave.

After    was the man’s voice, and the urn sound could not be heard clearly.

  Xiaolan moved a little in the direction of the door again, her nerves and body were in a tight state, Xiaolan thought that if someone suddenly slapped herself behind her back at this time, she would be frightened and fly out.

  The deep voice continued, Xiaolan couldn't get close anymore, and if he got closer, he would get in the door by herself.

  "...I keep telling you not to mention it...Do you think...I...I...I don't know...Wait when it involves us..."

  No way, at least one important point must be heard.

   Xiaolan simply lay down on the ground and stretched her neck forward.

  At this time, it was quiet inside. It was said that it was quiet, but in fact it was just that the two of them stopped talking. Xiaolan could hear the sound of pulling the bench open and the woman's soft sobbing.

   "The little girl feels uncomfortable when I think about it. How could she be burned to death if we saved her at that time?"

  The girl who was burned to death?

  Hear the key points! Xiaolan cheered up again, pricked up her ears, hoping that when the two quarreled, all their grievances would be passed through.

  "What does it have to do with us? You have always been like this. Do you think we have been saved? You don't know what kind of ghosts the people in the village are like. Can you save people from them?"

   Xiaolan memorized what I heard word by word in his head. Now it’s not the time to use my brain, so I should record it first, and leave the reasoning work to the person above.

  This time, the woman's voice lowered.

   "...at least try...how old are you..."

   "It really doesn't make sense with you, believe me or not..."

  The man's voice became angry. Before he finished speaking, he heard the harsh sound of the chair legs hitting the floor tiles, and the woman's voice thundered.

   "What do you want to do again! Want to kill me! Anyway, you have killed someone, so do you want me to be the one! You have the ability to kill the people above!"

  Killing? !

   Xiaolan sat up from the ground with a carp, his nerves that had been somewhat relaxed began to alert again.

  If I was found out, I was eavesdropping...

  No, I have to run.

  The Taoist leader just said that life is the most important thing, and I have to listen to the words of the leader.

   Xiaolan turned around and prepared to retreat, but when she turned around, she found that she had no idea where she was.

  Where should I go?

  Before finding the correct direction, there was a heavy footstep in the room, and the sound of footsteps pointed in the direction where Xiaolan was hiding.

   is really worse.

Xiaolan panicked, turned around and ran, and plunged directly into a door next to it. The door was open. A low table was placed near another wall. The table was covered with a large tablecloth, just enough to block the underside of the table. s things.

   Xiaolan fluttered, seeing that the table was really empty, and quickly dodged to hide in.

  Before breathing well, the sound of footsteps followed in unexpectedly.

   Xiaolan slammed her mouth tightly, heard the sound of footsteps stopping at a place about ten meters away from her, and walked a few steps back and forth, followed by the creaking of the chair.

  The woman was still in the room just now, crying loudly, while the man in this room kept sighing.

  Xiaolan thought, married life is full of all kinds of contradictions. But now no one is miserable without me.

  The space under the table is too small, and I can’t straighten my neck. I knew I would find a spacious place to hide.

   Xiaolan tilted her neck and gently opened the corner of the curtain. The boss was sitting in a chair with his back to her. The room they were in looked like a laundry room. Xiaolan wasn't sure if she had seen this laundry room just now. Why are there so many laundry rooms in the basement?

  The boss was still sitting in the chair, sighing, the wife’s cries gradually became quieter, but she could still be heard from a distance.

  Why don’t you leave?

   Xiaolan is very uncomfortable, not only afraid that she will be discovered, but also afraid that the intelligence she has collected will be forgotten.

  The surrounding area is too quiet, Xiaolan dare not breathe in the atmosphere, and the sound of her own heartbeat echoes in her mind, and she is even a little worried that this voice will be heard by the boss.

  Suddenly there was a sound of music, Xiaolan flicked in fright, and knocked his head against the wall, quickly lowered the curtain and drew in.

  The sound of music came from the boss’s location, and the boss cursed lightly, which was probably taken aback.

  After a beep, the sound of the music disappeared. The boss seemed to be still in his seat, but he sighed even harder.

  It should be his phone rang, Xiaolan thought.

  A few seconds later, the same music sounded again, just as Xiaolan expected, she took this opportunity to move her buttocks, changed direction and continued squatting.

   Another sigh, this time the boss picked up the phone.

"Oh, Brother Ma...I know...I was not around on the phone just now...Oh, I didn’t answer your call...I know I know that the day is coming soon, don’t you just send it to you if you have money...Last month it was not too late It’s been two days... It’s definitely on time this month... I can lie to you in this relationship... Come for a drink when I have time, Xiaohui and I miss you, haha... Who else, Xiaohui, your younger sister, Xiaohui Hey... come here when you are free..."

  The boss who made the phone call was completely different from the boss who sighed just now. Xiaolan was curious why he was so enthusiastic about people calling for money.

   There was another beep, the boss hung up the phone, and the hearty laughter stopped abruptly, followed by a vicious swear word.

   Xiaolan quietly changed her posture while the boss was calling, and finally was able to stretch her legs properly. Now she is facing the wall. Although she can't sneak a glimpse of the situation outside, she already has a basic judgment through the voice.

  The boss no longer sighed. Now he was swearing, and the voice of "tough" sounded. Xiaolan estimated that he was starting to point his fingers on the desk anxiously again.

  Holding the money given by Aunt Lin, Xiaolan did not understand the adult world’s fear and desire for money. She took it for granted that the boss was too immature.

   Xiaolan shook his head, and turned to the wall in front of him.

  The wall is flat and strong. Even if it is a dark corner, there is no corruption. The connection between the wall and the ground is tight. Xiaolan doesn't have to worry about something coming out of the gap.

  But a sense of disharmony gradually appeared in Xiaolan's mind.

  I always think something is weird.
