Chapter 141: Not Yet Started to Pay Back the Debt
Chapter 141: Not Yet Started to Pay Back the Debt
At eight o'clock in the evening, the police rushed to the haunted house and arrested the village chief of Fuyun Village who was committing the crime on the spot.
The police were divided into two groups. The big one went door to door in the village to interrogate and investigate, trying to identify the villagers who were the village chief and other villagers who had participated in the sacrifice.
The remaining small group took statements from the staff and variety show guests in the steel room of the program team.
During this period, it started to drizzle outside. When the interview was over, the drizzle turned into heavy rain. The program crew and the police who wanted to go down the mountain overnight were not allowed to stay in Fuyun Village.
Fuyun Village is large in area and has many houses. Hou Yu had originally prepared accommodation for the guests there, but now that this had happened, no one wanted to spend the night there, so they all crowded into the steel houses, hoping to leave when the rain stopped and daybreak.
As for the policemen, after questioning, they all went into Fuyun Village. Fuyun Village has a large population and they might not be able to finish the investigation in one night, so they dared not even think about taking a rest.
Rong Jin looked at the heavy rain outside from the window of the steel house, then whispered something to Yan Muhuai who was sitting next to him, opened the door and rushed into the village in the rain.
"What is the boss doing?" Ming Fei had been pestered by Luo Han, and only reacted after Rong Jin ran out.
Hou Yu also ran over to ask Yan Muhuai the reason.
"The rain is too heavy. This steel house is not safe. We still have to go into the village. He went to ask the police and asked the villagers to vacate a few rooms for us." Yan Muhuai answered everyone's doubts.
What he didn't say was that these people thought that they could just stay in the steel house for one night, even if they had to stand, as long as they could hold out until dawn. But even if dawn came and the rain stopped, they would not be able to leave Fuyun Village tomorrow.
A few minutes later, Rong Jin came back in the rain. His black shirt was completely wet and stuck to his skin, making his proud upper body vaguely visible.
Seeing this, Yan Muhuai took a deep breath, quickly grabbed the coat that Ming Fei had brought for him to cover himself with to rest, and put it on Rong Jin.
Everyone around felt a little regretful. Yan Muhuai's movements were too fast and they hadn't even seen it clearly!
Rong Jin pulled his clothes and said, "We have arranged the arrangement. We will have five houses near the village entrance. Everyone, pack up and move in. It will be dangerous to stay in the steel house if the rain continues."
"Damn, come closer to the village entrance?" Jin Yu put on a mask of pain.
Being close to the village entrance is equivalent to being close to the archway, and she will always be thinking about the hanged twin sisters.
"Don't be afraid, I'll sleep in the same room with you." Chen Xing'er patted Jin Yu's shoulder.
Jin Yu nodded with emotion, "Thank you."
Hearing Chen Xing'er's words, Luo Han immediately turned to Ming Fei and said, "I'll sleep in the same room with you, too."
Ming Fei: “…”
The rain was very heavy. Just a few steps into the village, everyone was soaked. After choosing a room, they started to boil water for a bath.
Fuyun Village has a backward economy. Although electricity is available, no one has installed a water heater, and bath water has to be boiled in a pot and taken to the bathroom.
The house that Yan Muhuai and his friends were assigned had two floors, with two rooms on the upper and lower floors.
He and Rong Jin lived on the left side of the first floor, while Jiang Li and Yun Ji lived on the right side.
The two rooms upstairs are occupied by Jin Yu, Chen Xing'er, Luo Han and Ming Fei.
Jiang Li and the other man had been busy boiling water in the kitchen. They let the four girls upstairs finish washing and go into the house first, and then it was the turn of the four men downstairs.
It is still very cold in the mountains in early summer. Although everyone changed their wet clothes after entering the house, it was still not warm enough and a hot bath was needed to recover.
Originally, Jiang Li boiled water and wanted to let Yan Muhuai and the others take a bath first, but Rong Jin declined.
Finally, Rong Jin boiled the water, and the two of them took a quick bath and returned to the room. It was already ten o'clock.
The bedding was all new, and Hou Yu had someone buy it in advance and send it to the village.
Yan Muhuai finished washing and crawled into bed first, but he was cold all over. After lying there for a few minutes, not only did it not warm the bed, but he felt colder as he slept.
When Rong Jin came in, he felt a piece of ice lying in the quilt.
"Master, why is your body so cold? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Rong Jin pinched Yan Muhuai's hand, his tone a little anxious.
"No, it's normal. As long as you're warm, that's enough. Come closer." After Yan Muhuai said that, he took the initiative to move closer to Rong Jin.
Rong Jin hugged the person who came closer to him tightly in his arms, trying to transfer all his warmth to him.
Too many things happened during the day, and since they were still in this haunted place called Fuyun Village, neither of them had any romantic thoughts and slept soundly until dawn.
The next day, the rain stopped and the sky cleared up.
The sun rose long ago, dispelling the dark clouds that had shrouded Fuyun Village all year round.
Rong Jin got up first and went to the program crew to get some food. Jiang Li and Yun Ji had already woken up and were washing up. The four girls also came downstairs one after another. Only Yan Muhuai had not shown up yet.
Yan Muhuai had already woken up. After washing up, he returned to his room and stood at the window looking at the entire Fuyun Village.
When Rong Jin opened the door and came in, he saw a figure standing against the light against the window.
Hearing the noise, Yan Muhuai turned around and looked at him with a smile.
"Master, what are you looking at?" Rong Jin walked over and hugged Yan Muhuai from behind.
Yan Muhuai leaned on his shoulder and raised his head to kiss Rong Jin.
After the kiss, the two of them remained in the same position. Yan Muhuai looked at the bright morning light outside and answered Rong Jin's question, "I want to see if the sunlight can shine into the haunted house, but it's too far from here to be seen."
"Then let's go over and take a look." Rong Jin said and pulled Yan Muhuai out of the room.
After they had breakfast, Hou Yu sent someone to inform them to gather and prepare to go down the mountain.
When Jin Yu heard that she could go down the mountain, she was so happy that she almost jumped up. The reason she didn't jump up was that she hardly slept the whole night and now she was exhausted and had no strength to jump.
But the next moment, Yan Muhuai gave her another piece of bad news, "Please tell Director Hou not to worry, we can't get down the mountain today."
"Why?" Jin Yu shouted until his voice broke.
Chen Xing'er felt that she was so pitiful that she reached out and patted her on the back gently. At the same time, she looked at Yan Muhuai in confusion, waiting for his answer.
Before Yan Muhuai could say anything, a uniformed policeman appeared at the door. "Who is the person in charge of your program? Let me tell you, there was a mudslide last night when it rained, blocking the way down the mountain. The relevant departments are still repairing it, so don't rush down the mountain."
"Bang!" Jin Yu hit his forehead on the table.
The voice was so clear that it startled Chen Xing'er, "Jin Yu, are you okay?"
Jin Yu buried his head on the table, raised his hand and gently stroked it, "Help me upstairs, I need to get a good sleep."
If she had known she couldn't leave today, she would have slept well last night. Why would she stay awake until dawn?
Seeing that she was fine, Yan Muhuai felt relieved and went to the haunted house with Rong Jin.
Rong Jin has a special official certificate that allows him to enter and exit crime scenes and interrogate criminals.
Yan Muhuai took advantage of his identity and met with the old village chief who was now unconscious.
The village chief was locked in a room, his grey gown stained with blood. He stared ahead with empty eyes, and kept muttering, "Impossible, impossible..."
The police officer in charge of the interrogation shook his head when he saw him like this. "It was like this when we caught him. We couldn't get a single useful word out of him."
Yan Muhuai walked up to the village chief and tapped his wrinkled forehead with his index finger. "Village chief, wake up. You haven't started paying your debt yet. How can you go crazy at this time?"
