invisible friends
Chapter 15
"Hey, wait, wait, your name is Luo Zhixia, right? The name sounds really nice. Luo Zhixia, how old are you? Did you live alone on this island before? Are you afraid? I think your house looks quite evil. By the way, what’s the matter with the fruit trees on your small island? What’s so strange about it? It’s like a maze when you walk in. Before, the fruit trees in your town People say I still don't believe it... balabala"
Zhu Jinruo kept his mouth open as he walked behind Luo Zhixia, and he didn't know where such an old man came up with so many questions, he was even more curious than a three-year-old child.Luo Zhixia was a little dizzy after taking the bus all the way, but after Zhu Jinruo made such a noise, Luo Zhixia only felt his head buzzing.
Luo Zhixia walked in front and didn't speak. Zhu Jinruo was bored with what he said alone, so he walked a few steps to Luo Zhixia's side and patted his arm and said, "Luo Zhixia, why don't you talk?"
Luo Zhixia felt annoyed for a while, turned around and said to Zhu Jinruo: "Stop, stop, you haven't drunk water all afternoon, can you stop talking? It is impossible for me to sell this island to you, so this The matters on the island and mine have nothing to do with you, Mr. Zhu, so please don’t waste your time inquiring about it!”
"Yes, yes." Zhu Jinruo nodded, but he didn't stop talking, "I'm a little tired too. Just now you asked me if I could go into the house to rest, but you didn't let me in to drink water and left."
Luo Zhixia turned around and continued walking, "Didn't you say that our house is evil?"
Zhu Jinruo took out a small snow-white handkerchief, wiped the sweat dripping from his forehead in a very handsome posture, and said, "Old houses look a little weird."
This is true, but anything that is old will be a little weird, and the bigger the thing, the bigger the feeling.Especially for things like houses, after a long time, even permanent residents will feel eerie when they walk in.For example, there are many scenic spots in S Province. During the day, there are so many people that you don’t feel it. At night, when no one is around, even the security guards are uneasy walking around in it alone.
Luo Zhixia is not a person who is good at talking, but Zhu Jinruo is an acquaintance. After walking a few steps, he continued: "Whether this island will be sold or not, such a big matter can't be decided for a while. Luo Zhixia Xia, let's find time another day to talk formally and slowly, and we won't be able to agree on this matter without talking about it more than a dozen times, so there's no rush."
Zhu Jinruo still looks confident that he can definitely buy the island. If the island belongs to someone else, it might not be a big deal for Zhu Jinruo, as the young master, to buy it, but if he meets Luo Zhixia, it will definitely be impossible.Luo Zhixia glanced at Zhu Jinruo who was showing his perfect image with his chest upright like a peacock, didn't talk nonsense with him, and led him to find the five Jiang Hexu who were trapped, and then rushed the six of them into the boat.
Jiang Hexu and the four bodyguards saw that Zhu Jinruo was very excited. Jiang Hexu even wiped his eyes pretendingly, then looked at Zhu Jinruo as if he saw a long-lost relative, and said in a hoarse voice: "Master, you It's great that you're fine. I walked away just now, but suddenly found that you were all gone, and I was so scared that my heart and kidneys were about to jump out of my chest. I thought someone kidnapped you."
This afternoon, Jiang Hexu and the four bodyguards did not stop to look for someone in the woods. At this moment, the clothes on his body were all soaked in sweat. Luo Zhixia, who was sitting in the bow of the boat rowing, moved over and said, "You fell into the pit, why are you so wet? And what's wrong with your throat, it looks like a broken gong."
Jiang Hexu beat the villain angrily in his heart, can he not get wet? If Zhu Jinruo disappeared, he was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat, not to mention that he hadn't stopped his feet all afternoon, so don't exercise too much.As for his voice, he has been calling Zhu Jinruo's name all afternoon, and the one that is not hoarse is a recording speaker.
After beating the villain in his heart, Jiang Hexu felt that he had calmed down a bit, so he took out his phone from his bag and pressed the power button, but it still wouldn't turn on, "Master, have you called Dong Haoxin? Just black screen."
"My phone's screen is also black."
"It's such a coincidence, could it be that all of the fruits we bought were parallel imports?" Jiang Hexu shook the phone in his hand vigorously, then turned to look at a strong bodyguard huddled in the stern, "Where's your phone?"
The four of them shook their heads in unison, "Even the walkie-talkie is broken."
Zhu Jinruo stroked his chin and asked, "Luo Zhixia, did you install any special equipment on the island?"
Luo Zhixia thought to himself that there is no special equipment, but there are a lot of special creatures.You must know that just one ghost can make nearby electronic products malfunction. If there are a group of ghosts, without special measures to deal with them, all nearby electronic products will not be able to be used. It is good that they do not explode.
Luo Zhixia's boat was small, just enough to hold seven people, but because of the heavy load, the whole boat almost sank into the lake.Zhu Jinruo tapped on the very old-looking ship plank with his fingers, and said, "I think you should buy a speedboat. The lake here is big enough, so it must be fun to drive."
"No need." In this lake area, no boat is better than this one, and speedboats are not cheap. Luo Zhixia has a lot of money, but it doesn't mean he will spend them richly, because his annual fixed It costs a lot.Moreover, Luo Zhixia has to make himself have enough savings. You must know that sometimes helping ghosts requires some price. Many ghosts are willing to go to the exorcism in exchange for Luo Zhixia to give their family a large sum of money.
At this time, there was a bit of wind, and there were some waves on the surface of Qingshui Lake. The boat was swaying, and it didn't feel particularly stable.Zhu Jinruo grabbed the side of the boat, looked at the aquatic plants growing from a depth of tens of meters below the lake, and asked worriedly: "This boat is so small and old, is it really okay to take so many of us?"
"Don't worry, the fish here don't like to eat the meat of mammals." Luo Zhixia said angrily. In order not to let Zhu Jinruo and the others see that something was wrong, he couldn't let the fish push the boat for him. A boat for a big man is no easy task.
Zhu Jinruo's eyes were very sharp, and he immediately discovered the reason for Luo Zhixia's displeasure. He glanced at the four bodyguards, and Liu Wu, who was sitting closest to Luo Zhixia, immediately stood up, "Mr. Luo, let me row the boat for you." .”
Luo Zhixia is happy to have someone help with physical work, but Liu Wu, a bodyguard in a black suit and full of style, really doesn't seem like a person who can row an old boat, but he should be able to drive a speedboat.
"Do you know how? This boat is not easy to row."
Liu Wu was dumbfounded, scratched his head with a dry smile, glanced carefully at Zhu Jinruo and said, "Master, I don't know how to row a boat."
"What about you?" Zhu Jinruo glanced over the remaining four people.
The four of Jiang Hexu shook their heads innocently, and replied in unison: "No."
"Ha! What about you?" Luo Zhixia turned to Zhu Jinruo with a cold face.
Zhu Jinruo smiled brightly. He bent over Luo Zhixia, wanting to grab the oar: "I can't either, but I can help you shake it together."
The close physical contact made Luo Zhixia a little uncomfortable, he quickly avoided it with a frown, and Zhu Jinruo withdrew his hand indifferently.This kind of behavior of eating tofu couldn't be simpler, it was Zhu Jinruo's impromptu idea, and he didn't think he could take advantage of it, it was because Luo Zhixia was so beautiful and his temperament was so attractive that he was a little moved.
Luo Zhixia didn't feel that Zhu Jinruo was eating his tofu, because he was an asexual, and he never thought about having an intimate relationship with anyone, never thinking about having a girlfriend or a boyfriend.Of course, if a person sees too many dead people, he will inevitably lose interest in the living. When people are only divided into dead and alive in his eyes, gender can be completely ignored, so he will not think too much about Zhu Jinruo's behavior just now. intention.
When they arrived at the pier, Dong Haoxin rushed over immediately, stretched out his hand and pulled Zhu Jinruo onto the shore, and said, "Master, how are you? I haven't been able to contact you all afternoon, and I almost have to call the master and madam." .”
Zhu Jinruo shrugged, and said indifferently: "Xiao Dong, you are always too nervous, remember to be like today next time, don't just call the old man and old lady casually. I will be fine, Don't you worry about my strength?"
"But what if something really happens?" Dong Haoxin said.
"You are just too nervous. I told you to go out and relax more, but you are always reluctant. It happens that there is nothing important recently. We will be here for vacation this week. Have you booked a hotel yet?" Zhu Jinruo said , looked at Luo Zhixia who was about to leave, he was just passing by on a business trip this time, originally these things should be negotiated by his subordinates, but now he feels that he can spare some time.
"Master, there are no hotels in Qingshui Town, only small hotels. I booked one in the city. But master, didn't you make an appointment with the second young master of the Li family to discuss overseas cooperation projects the day after tomorrow? We can't spare a week. "Dong Haoxin said.
"Then it's better to postpone it for a while, Li Weile will understand." Zhu Jinruo said.A flamboyant playboy like Li Weile must be able to understand his desire to stay here for a few more days.
Luo Zhixia spoke a few more words with the mayor, making sure that he would put up a sign on the pier the next day that said "Idlers can't wait to go to the island, I'm not responsible for any accidents" before jumping on the boat, Zhu Jinruo walked over cleanly and said, "Luo Zhixia, please leave a call, see you tomorrow."
Luo Zhixia turned his head away, rowed away, "See you again."
Jiang Hexu took a clear look at Luo Zhixia's slender back, and took the initiative to go to the mayor to ask Luo Zhixia's contact information.He is really a 24-hour personal assistant. He is a good subordinate who works hard in the company. Outside the company, he is a good nanny with good service. Otherwise, I'm sorry for his frightened glass heart today!If possible, he really didn't want to go to that island again.
Zhu Jinruo kept his mouth open as he walked behind Luo Zhixia, and he didn't know where such an old man came up with so many questions, he was even more curious than a three-year-old child.Luo Zhixia was a little dizzy after taking the bus all the way, but after Zhu Jinruo made such a noise, Luo Zhixia only felt his head buzzing.
