    After the rain, the weather cleared up.

    Shortly after Shi Yu left, Li Yu lay lazily in the room for a while, pretending to be asleep.

    Making sure that the bodyguard would not come in, he got up and got out of bed, asked 1551 to help monitor the door, and walked to the Bogujia lightly.

    He touched each box one by one, and when it was his turn to a nanmu box inlaid with eight treasures, his heartbeat increased sharply, and the frequency increased linearly as the touching time prolonged.

    Li Yu let go of his hand, patted his chest and panted for a while, his heartbeat that was about to explode finally calmed down.

    There is indeed a problem.

    The box the mirror is in is different every time, Li Yu guessed, this is the same as the local tyrants changing houses. This broken mirror is not a serious goblin.

    He stared at the box. "Hey, can you hear me?"

    The box doesn't respond.

    "I was in a coma twice before. You caused the mess." Li Yu's tone was firm, but unfortunately, the box was still dead.

    He closed his eyes and pondered that there was only one reason for the box to attack him, and he didn't want him to find an exit. In this case, why not kill him directly to avoid future troubles.

    The mayor said that the exit is in the mountains, but the town is surrounded by mountains, and finding it is like looking for a needle in a haystack. There must be some clues in the middle that he has not found.

    Li Yu gave up talking to himself in front of the box and went to the study.

    Habits can reveal a lot of secrets. He wanted to try to see if he could find out Shi Yu's identity.

    As long as the identity is revealed, the answer to the second secret should not be far away.

    In recent days, men have been accompanying him in the hospital, and the display of books in the study is the same as before.

    Li Yu asked, "1551, can you scan the book with the most creases?"

    "The collection of books is too large, it will take some time, please wait."

    Li Yu didn't wait stupidly. He walked around the corner. In addition to various furniture, there was a black wooden box more than half a meter high.

    The eight corners of the wooden box have auspicious cloud-style brass edging and old-fashioned locks. These accessories are smooth in color and have already been covered with pulp. think it will take a long time.

    Li Yu, "1551, are you ready?"

    1551, "Right now."

    Li Yu snorted, "After you're done, scan the accessories of the box to see how old the pulp is."

    There are no rules for mirrors to copy things, ranging from high-rise buildings with hundreds of stories to small waterproof manhole covers on the side of the road, but Shi Yu chose to put a wooden box in the study.

    Li Yu was very curious about what was so special about the box.

    A beep sounded in his head, and the system sequenced all the books present according to the depth of the creases of the books.

    Li Yu looked from the first place, it was an ancient book in this thread, and it was tattered and out of shape.

    1551 said, "From the material and craftsmanship of the paper, this book is at least six hundred years old."

    Li Yu flipped through it a few times. The ink was small and small, and the content was very ordinary, similar to the Three Character Classic and Disciple Rules.

    I didn't see that the man was actually good at it. No wonder he always likes to keep his face straight.

    He put down the book and continued flipping through the books one by one, without much gain.

    When was about to go to the next bookshelf, there was a voice outside the door. It was the butler's voice, and it sounded like he wanted to come in.

    Li Yu was guilty, lying on the door frame, and heard the bodyguard say, "Sir said, Mr. Jiang needs to rest, and there is no need to clean up today."

    "But the master loves cleanliness. He once said that the room must be cleaned every day." This was the butler's voice.

    The bodyguard was impatient and said in a slightly heavier tone, "You're just a housekeeper. You can just do what the master says. There's so much nonsense."

    This was the first time Li Yu heard that someone dared to be such a housekeeper, and he was heartbroken. Judging from the shadows on the hollowed-out doors and windows, the two were facing each other.

    This guy is really powerful.

    Knowing that the housekeeper could not come in, Li Yu turned his head and continued to read the book.

    When it was the turn of the 46th book, Li Yu's mouth twitched. The location of this book was very secret, sandwiched between a thick book.

    He carefully took it out, and after only flipping a page, he couldn't help shaking his head and sighed, "1551, this is the first time I've read a professional book on doing things. The characters are vivid, the details are exquisite, and it's really fresh."

    1551 mercilessly popped up the light screen, marking it with a mosaic, which was not allowed to be seen.

    Li Yu, "..."

    Reluctantly, he shoved the book back and continued to read, this time it was an ancient law.

    The law is exhaustive, from taxation to various sentencing.

    There are no policemen in this city, and it is useless to ask for a law, let alone an ancient law.

    Judging by the system, although this book is at number 60 on the crease list, the system says it has a history of more than 800 years.

    Li Yu turned back quickly, and there was no big gain. Just as he was about to put it back, a khaki envelope with a red border on the front fell out.

    The envelope is well preserved, with only four words on the front. My son personally opened it.

    The lacquer seal of the seal was not damaged, and the envelope was opened directly from one end with a tool.

    Li Yu opened the envelope with his fingers, empty.

    The letter may have been taken long ago, or it may have been empty in the first place.

    Turning the envelope over, Li Yu looked at the four large characters on the front again. The handwriting was strong and the brushwork was bold. It must be very important that Shi Yu could put it away properly. Could it be really written by his father?

    "1551, can you find that letter in the study?"

    "It will take some time." 1551 said, "In addition, the accessories of the box have been detected, which are about 800 years old."

    Another eight hundred years.

    Li Yu asked, "What style is the lock cylinder?"

    1551 gave the structure diagram, which is the most common copper lock in ancient times. It only needs a hairpin or iron wire to do it.

    Li Yu searched around the house, but couldn't find any sex.

    He worriedly said, "Can you scan the structure inside?"

    "No," 1551 said. "You can try to open the lock."

    Li Yu looked at the door of the main house. The housekeeper had already left. He retreated to the window and opened a gap to see that there was no one there.

    And facing the window, there is a bougainvillea, blooming brightly.

    He leaned on the window, stuck out half of his body, reached out and pulled a branch, and broke it with force.

    There were many small branches on the branches. Li Yu broke them off one by one, returned to the box, and shoved them into the keyhole one by one.

    I don't know how long tried, but the lock clicked and opened.

    He stood up excitedly and opened the box, which was a bright bright red.

    The silky satin glowed softly, wrapping the things below smoothly.

    Li Yu leaned down, pulled out a corner of the red silk, and saw a lifelike phoenix.

    The phoenix was dressed in colorful feathers, raised his head and spread his wings, and closed his eyes as if he could hear the loud chirping of birds.

    This is an ancient dress.

    Li Yu didn't turn down any further. After returning everything to its original state, he stood there in a daze for a while, turned his head to the shelf to find the previous law, and began to think about other things.

    The box and the law are of the same age, and both are treated differently.

    By the way, there are bodyguards.

    Generally speaking, very few people will call the employer master.

    Li Yu shouted 1551, "Shi Yu has been trapped here for eight hundred years?"

    1551, "Submit an answer? You have one last chance to guess."

    Li Yu knew that this could not be a complete answer. If he was right and the chrysanthemum was bright, it would mean that there would be a specific direction of investigation.

    "submit."

    The waiting time for verification was not long, but under the tension and anxiety, every second passed extremely slowly, making people anxious.

    With a ding sound, the little chrysanthemum lit up.

    Li Yu counted it carefully and lit up three petals.

    He suppressed his voice and jumped excitedly on the ground twice, just as he was about to study the envelope again, when a voice came from outside the house again.

    It's Maria.

    Li Yu put the envelope properly back in the law book, and returned to the bed gently, making a rustling sound of getting out of bed.

    He came to the door, probed out, and found that the bodyguard was blocking Maria, not allowing her to knock on the door.

    Li Yu yawned and patted the bodyguard's hard arm, "Dude, let her in."

    The bodyguard put his face on the ice cube, "Mr. Jiang calls me that, the master will be angry."

    Li Yu frowned, "Then what should I call you?"

    Bodyguard, "Number One."

    This is obviously a number, Li Yu probed, "Is there two, three, four?"

    "Yes." The bodyguard said, "Do you want to meet Mr. Jiang? I need to ask the master for instructions."

    Li Yu said no, there is a subtle difference between the bodyguard's attitude towards Shi Yu and the butler's attitude towards Shi Yu... Li Yu thought about it for two seconds, but he couldn't tell.

    He put his thoughts away and looked at Maria, "Come in and talk."

    Maria timidly glanced at the bodyguard, carefully raised one foot, and stepped over the threshold.

    Seeing that the other party didn't stop her, she breathed a sigh of relief.

    Lonely man and widow were in the same room, Li Yu left the door open, beckoned the little girl to sit down, and poured a glass of water.

    "Your face is not very good, you haven't rested recently, okay?"

    Maria shook her head and nodded, she was hesitating, for fear that the youth would be worried to tell the truth.

    "Maria." Li Yu's tone increased, "Aren't we friends?"

    At the door, the bodyguard suddenly put his head in, and after being glared by the young man, he retracted his head and stood up straight.

    Li Yu rubbed his brows and felt that this was not to protect him, it was just an eyeliner.

    "Jiang Yuan." Maria shouted softly, "I really don't have a good rest recently, and I always lose sleep."

    Li Yu, "Have you moved back?"

    Maria didn't answer directly, and stared at something in a trance.

    Nothing in the room has changed, but there is something more, especially when she is close to the bathroom, she always feels that something is quietly observing her, but she is not afraid, and even wants to touch deeply.

    Once something changes, breaking the mirror or changing rooms won't help.

    Like a runaway car, it can only really stop when it hits an obstacle.

    She doesn't like who she is now, but she enjoys the changes contradictingly. Whenever she sees the panicked expression of the cook, she will have a wonderful pleasure.

    When the shoulder was touched, Maria came back to her senses, "What's the matter?"

    Li Yu said, "I want to ask how you and Sister Song are doing recently."

    "Not good." Maria chose to tell the truth, "I hate her."

    "Jiang Yuan, Sister Song's character is so bad, she just ran to the security guard to speak ill of you, and I heard it all."

    In a sense, the cook couldn't help herself, she couldn't control her mouth.

    It is imminent to find the exit, or sooner or later life will be lost.

    Li Yu, "Are you still scoring Sister Song?"

    Where is the score, it is clearly the countdown to death.

    If there is no scorebook, Maria's extreme thoughts may be curbed. With the scorebook, once the score falls below her psychological bottom line, it is equivalent to finding a reasonable excuse for murder.

    Too dangerous.

    Li Yu thought for a moment, then slowed down his tone to persuade, "Maria, listen to me, don't remember, if you don't like Sister Song, you can..."

    "What do you mean?" Before the youth could finish speaking, Maria stood up in an overreaction, "You mean I'm wrong?"

    "I did not mean that……"

    "Jiang Yuan, I'm right, Sister Song is the worst one." Maria dropped the words, turned around angrily and rushed out of the room, writing "You betrayed me" from head to toe.

    Li Yu has a headache. This girl is now suspicious and sensitive, and her temper will explode.

    "1551, how many points are recorded on the notepad?"

    "Negative ninety-seven."

    Li Yu stood up with a rub, it's only been a few days, how did the score suddenly rise so much!

    The cook's mouth was completely dancing on the line of death, trying to die.

    I can't sit in the house, have to look at the two of them. Thinking of this, Li Yu got up and went out.

    "Mr. Jiang, the master said that your body has not yet recovered, so you should not exercise too much." The bodyguard's arm was in front of the door, and he said nothing.

    Li Yu whispered, "Why did Shi Yu come back?"

    As expected, the bodyguard looked to the other side, and Li Yu took the opportunity to bend over and get out from under the opponent's arm, slipping far away in the blink of an eye.

    "Mr. Jiang!"

    The bodyguard shouted several times in succession and refused to listen, closed the door of the main house, and chased after him.

    Li Yu first went to the kitchen for a walk, and the cook was scorned for a while, and then went to the operating room to have a look, but still couldn't find Maria. Finally, after a lot of work, he finally found someone at the alley.

    Someone stumbled over in front, with messy hair and fearful eyes. He was neatly dressed and looked a little familiar.

    Li Yu spent two minutes rummaging through his mind to find some clips. This seemingly crazy eldest sister is Sister Wang who is showing the house next door.

    Sister Wang came running from the front, twisting her body, looking back from time to time, saying, "Don't kill me, don't kill me, there are ghosts, there are ghosts..."

    There are no ghosts in this world, only poor souls.

    Li Yu reached out and grabbed the person, "Sister Wang."

    Sister Wang was stunned for a moment, her eyes touched the young man's face, her pupils trembled, and she screamed loudly.

    Maria on the side bit her lower lip, walked over, and held Sister Wang's hand, "Sister Wang, I'm Maria, do you remember me?"

    "Maria...Maria..." The woman repeated over and over again, trying to recall.

    Gradually, her chaotic eyes calmed down and her face became clear.

    Maria breathed a sigh of relief and asked her, "Sister Wang, what happened to you just now?"

    Sister Wang looked at the young man in front of her eyes and refused to speak.

    Maria was still angry, her lips moved a few times, and she said reluctantly, "He's my friend, say what you have to say."

    Sister Wang is still on guard.

    Li Yu introduced himself, "My name is Jiang Yuan, and I'm an employee of Shizhai."

    Sister Wang was stunned for a moment, "I remember, you are the most lazy one next door."

    Li Yu, "..."

    The original owner's pot, no matter how dark or heavy, must be honestly carried.

    Sister Wang straightened her back and looked at both ends of the alley. She didn't find anyone chasing after her, and finally she was willing to relax completely.

    She didn't dislike being dirty either. She sat down on the ground and hugged herself tightly, "Maria, I really can't stay in this place. I always feel that someone is following me. Really, I didn't lie to you."

    "Have you seen the other party's appearance?" Li Yu asked.

    "It doesn't seem like..." Sister Wang hesitated, with confusion on her face.

    If you see it, you see it, if you don't see it, you don't see it. It seems that there is no answer.

    Knowing that there was nothing to ask, Li Yu found the system, "What happened to her just now?"

    "She should be suspicious." 1551 said, "Just walking on the road, just because someone walked the same road with her, he suspected that the other party was going to kill her."

    Li Yu, "..."

    Sister Wang's suspicion has been magnified by the mirror.

    Li Yu, "Let's take you back."

    Sister Wang shivered in shock, and her reaction was even bigger than before, "I'm not going back, there are ghosts inside! They are hiding in the water tank and watching me!"

    When the water tank is full of water, it can pour the figure.

    Li Yu said two words, "Mirror?"

    All of Sister Wang's nerves were affected, she kept rubbing her face, and her eyes moved strangely, as if there was really something nearby.

    Li Yu and Maria looked at each other, "There is no mirror here, it's very safe."

    There are only walls on both sides of the alley, not even a glass scum. Under the comfort of the two, Sister Wang calmed down, but in the next second, she suddenly burst into tears.

    "Mr. Jiang, you've been outside long enough."

    The bodyguard's voice came from overhead.

    Li Yu raised his head and found that the man was squatting on the wall, looking down at him in disapproval.

    This ability to fly over the eaves, Spider-Man?

    The bodyguard turned down from the wall, like a repeater, and repeated the words again.

    Sister Wang's wailing was completely interrupted, and the tense and treacherous atmosphere relaxed a lot.

    Li Yu pretended to be serious and stared at the bodyguard's order, "Quiet."

    "Okay, Mr. Jiang." The bodyguard leaned his back against the wall after speaking, breathing lightly.

    Sister Wang wiped her tears, probably because there were many people around, which gave her a sense of security, and she spoke a lot louder, "There are ghosts in that house, mirror ghosts, I won't lie to you."

    Li Yu, "Have you seen it?"

    "Of course I have." Sister Wang turned pale and swallowed, "She smiled at me in the mirror, like this."

    She held the corners of her mouth with her hands and pushed them towards the base of her ears exaggeratedly.

    Coupled with a pair of protruding eyes, it is extremely strange.

    Li Yu was not frightened, "And then."

    "Then..." Sister Wang loosened her mouth and said in a low voice, "Then she said, I will go crazy and kill people."

    After she finished speaking, she giggled strangely, "I don't even dare to kill a chicken, how could I kill someone."

    Li Yu didn't think so.

    Mirrors can make people's characters extreme. For example, Sister Wang, her paranoia will become more and more serious, and she will feel that everything around her, even the flowers and plants that cannot move, are full of malice towards her.

    In order to protect herself, she is likely to take the initiative to attack.

    "Sister Wang, what are you going to do?" Maria asked, "Is there a place to go, we'll take you there."

    "No, there is no safe place in this city... I'm leaving, leaving for me!"

    Sister Wang pushed aside the two people in front of her, and rushed out on the road like a madman. Maria didn't even think about chasing after them.

    Naturally, Li Yu couldn't wait, and followed with his tail.

    When the two caught up to the main road, Sister Wang and Maria just got into a taxi.

    He stopped a car and got on it, pulling the door hard, but it couldn't close.

    There was a hand on the door frame of the car, and the bodyguard of the repeater still said, "Mr. Jiang, it's time for you to go back to rest."

    Li Yu actually got out of the car obediently, and when the other party was stunned, he pushed the person into the car.

    He sat in, slammed the door, and said to the driver, "Master, follow the taxi in front."
