Chapter 4 Left to the heirs of the villa

In the living room of the villa, four people were sitting together, eating and chatting.

Because there is no electricity in the villa, I can only light a candle. Fortunately, the villa has a fireplace, so the house is not cold after the fire starts.

Xing Tianyu was now lying on the sofa opposite the fireplace, listening to the howling mountain wind outside, the whistling sound of the leaves on the mountain, and the whimpering sound of the mountain wind blowing through the treetops. Thinking about the dozens of miles around, except for the four of them, there are probably no living people. This feeling of independence from the world makes Xing Tianyu feel an inexplicable lonely and cold feeling in his heart.

The fire of the fire was beating in the living room, like a ghostly shadow. Xing Tianyu sucked a mouthful of instant noodles and tried his best to put aside the uneasy thoughts in his mind.

"By the way, do your uncle have any weirdness? Why do you live in such a ghost place and spend money to build such a large villa? This is really rich and has no place to use it. It's really hard for those who built villas to transport the building materials."

Xiao Zhen complained while eating instant noodles.

Qin Ming didn't say anything. He was in high spirits and checking the room, checking everything in the villa. You must know that these things are his now. Every time he gets a new discovery, Qin Ming would cheer from time to time.

As for Ning Wenrui, he always had a thoughtful look since he entered the villa. He seemed to have a question that bothered him, making him want to get an answer. He was sitting in front of the fire, eating while thinking about something.

In fact, Xing Tianyu was also confused. Today, he always felt a sense of inexplicable déjà vu, but he was used to burying his curiosity in his heart. Moreover, he was in such wilderness, so he had no intention of finding the truth.

However, as a famous saying says, when you don’t want to cause trouble, trouble will often come to you, and things will always turn around.

"Hey, there is a letter here." Qin Ming, who was checking his property, suddenly exclaimed.

As he spoke, he walked over from the living room cabinet. The four of them surrounded him. Xing Tianyu felt a vague feeling that perhaps this letter could explain the origin of the uneasiness in his heart.

But I saw a sentence written on the envelope, "Leave it to the heir of the villa - Qin Gangliu."

"Your uncle seems to be very foresighted, and he actually prepared his suicide note in advance." Xing Tianyu said thoughtfully.

Ning Wenrui suddenly frowned, "Everyone, I think this is a little wrong. Qin Ming's uncle is probably not a normal death."

Qin Ming seemed to be startled, "You, what do you mean? Why is something wrong?"

"Think about it, Chinese people rarely have the habit of leaving suicide notes, and ordinary people will never write suicide notes so early unless the old one is dying, or are terminally ill, or know that they are in danger of their lives.

For example, the common scene in the movie, where a person has to perform a life-threatening task, leaving someone a suicide note or something. Since your uncle is not old and dies unexpectedly, he leaves a suicide note in advance, which is a bit unreasonable."

He expressed his thoughts and several people also reacted.

"I said Qin Ming, your uncle must have been killed, right?" Ning Wenrui's imagination has always been rich, and his eyes shining.

"It may also be because of a terminal illness." Xing Tianyu became more rational.

"What do you care about it? Just open the letter and you will know." Xiao Zhen said so.

Under the urging of several people, Qin Ming tore the envelope open in a few seconds, opened the folded letter paper, and saw that it was written on it.

Qin Ming:

Hello, you were only a few months old when you left home. I gave you your name. I didn’t expect that it would be apart from life and death in a flash.

Well... well, I actually lived well when I wrote this letter, but people always die, right? So when you see this letter, I should be dead, or at least not in this world. Of course, it is not ruled out that you pick up the letter or see it unintentionally.

Well, I won’t talk about it anymore. So as my heir, I will leave you all my inheritance. If it did not continue to expand at that time, it should include this villa manor, the deposits in the bank and all the collections in the manor.

Don’t underestimate these collections. I spent all my effort to collect them. If you don’t understand, you must find someone to appraise them. Otherwise, it will be easy to lose money if you sell them. Of course, if you are financially OK, try not to sell them well.

I greet your father on my behalf and also said sorry to me in front of your grandparents' grave. I left home very early and did not fulfill my filial piety to them, but I also have my helplessness. Alas, people will always feel helpless in their lives.

Actually, I want to tell you about my life. I don’t have children and I always feel that no one shares or talks about it. But let it go. There are many things you may not believe even if you say them.

Well, that's all. There is another thing I must remind you, don't open the door of the basement of the villa, don't enter that door, because behind that door is something you will never be willing to face.

Qin Gang stays

"Basement? There is still a basement in this manor?" The letter was written very casually and nagging, but Qin Ming immediately grabbed the point and his eyes shone.

He had just seen it all over the room, and there were a lot of valuable things. The harvest alone made him feel excited. When he thought of a basement that he could explore, he suddenly became even more excited. Maybe there were more valuable things in it.

However, he was a little embarrassed, and his uncle clearly stated that he must not open the basement, which made him hesitate. On the one hand, it was curiosity and possible treasures, and on the other hand, it was a danger that his uncle could remind him.

He looked at the three of them with some inquiries, and Xiao Zhen immediately understood his thoughts.

"Guys, I think we have to help Qin Ming open the basement door to see what's inside?" Xiao Zhen said to the three of them almost without hesitation.

Xing Tianyu's eyelids twitched when he heard this. He was so angry that he couldn't get out of his mouth.

"I said you are fine. Uncle Qin Ming clearly said, "Don't open the basement door, or are you illiterate? Do you want me to read it for you?"

Xiao Zhen gave Xing Tianyu a blank look, "Of course I can read, the question is, don't you find it strange? [There is something you will never be willing to face behind that door], what is something that Qin Ming absolutely does not want to face, don't you be curious?"

Xing Tianyu nodded, "Of course I am curious. I also want to know what the back of the door is, but if you have learned what experience I have given me after watching horror movies for so many years, it means that you will not die if you don't commit suicide. Don't you understand, there will always be things you cannot know in this world, and people will always be curious. If you want to figure out everything, you will only be exhausted. Since that's the case, let him go. Isn't it good to be a safe and stable ordinary person?"

However, his words had no effect on the three of them. After hearing Xiao Zhen's words, Qin Ming was also excited, and seemed to be quite looking forward to this adventure.

Ning Wenrui looked solemn and inexplicably excited, as if his doubts were about to be answered.

"Damn, I can't communicate with you!" Xiao Zhen looked at Qin Ming, "How about Old Qin, let's see what's inside. We are all here. If there is any danger, you can help you. If we all leave in the future, you can't help but open the basement alone, if there is danger, no one will help.

Maybe your uncle left you something good, maybe this is a test, if you don’t dare to open the door, you will miss the things inside.” He said, looking at Ning Wenrui and gave a look at Ning Wenrui.

Ning Wenrui hesitated for a moment and suddenly smiled slightly. If I guessed correctly, this should probably be a test.

"Test?" Qin Ming was obviously confused, "Why do you say that?"

Ning Wenrui talked: "Imagine if your uncle really has something that he doesn't want you to see, then what is the safest way?

Build this thing and don’t let you know at all. In this way, you will definitely not be able to see it?

But your uncle didn't do this. He put the things in a secret room, left the key, and left you a letter telling you not to open the door. Isn't this obvious? He just wants to leave the decision to you. If I guess correctly, the things behind the door must be a bit complicated, which may be mixed. If you don't have the idea and ability to take risks, then you will naturally not open the door.

But if you have the idea and ability to take risks, then it’s right to open the door. I personally think you should open it and see. If you feel it’s dangerous, you can just close it.”

These words were completely thorough, and if you think about it carefully, it made some sense. Qin Ming's eyes suddenly shone when he heard this, "That's right, if my uncle doesn't want me to open the door, there is no need to leave this letter at all. It's right to bury it directly. It seems that there is still a good thing."

"What if it is a corpse, what if it is a drug? What if it is an arms?" Xing Tianyu suddenly said next to him.

Qin Ming was stunned for a moment, but he had no intention of being afraid. He gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, "Let's open it and take a look. Even if it's something bad, at worst, we can just close the door and pretend that we didn't see it."

"Haha, that's right! How about Old Xing, do you want to come together?" Xiao Zhen said, looking at Xing Tianyu with bright eyes.

Xing Tianyu sighed, he knew that he was going to follow the crowd again this time.

He gave Xiao Zhen a blank look, "Do I have any other choice?"
