Guo Pingan continued: "Old London said that Mr. Shi Lei would arrive before lunch, but we didn't think much about it. Then he told us the rules here. At that time, Deng Jingliang also asked him, if someone makes a lot of noise, or
If someone dislikes each other and gets into a fight, what will happen to it? In the end, Old London still said that it is not under its control. It is only responsible for preparing three meals a day for us and many other affairs in this manor. As guests here, we have no requirements.
You can ask it, and it will try its best to satisfy the request as long as it is reasonable. In addition, even if we demolish the house, it will not interfere, saying that it is a problem that Mr. Shi Lei should deal with."
Cheng Yu nodded and said, "Nothing else?"
"Old London said this was the only rule here..."
Cheng Yu frowned and lowered his voice and said, "With all due respect, does Old London actually mean that there are no rules here?"
Guo Ping'an snorted coldly and said, "I'm afraid that's what I mean. Moreover, the person who asked Old London to say this is probably hinting at something."
Cheng Yu blinked and did not ask. It was enough to understand this kind of thing. Even if Cheng Yu wanted to pretend to be stupid about this matter, there was no need to pretend to be stupid.
"Then if that's the case, then I can understand why it didn't say this to me alone."
Guo Ping'an was stunned when he heard this, then frowned and said: "It's because it doesn't intend to imply anything to you, because you are indeed an outsider to us? To be honest, Writer Cheng, maybe you really came to write a book to earn royalties.
But Mr. Shi Lei is not here, and I'm afraid he didn't plan to go to the island early in the morning. So what does he mean by bringing you to the island? He has never mentioned to you whether you have anything else to do on the island.
Do?"
Cheng Yu shrugged helplessly and said: "No, so after lunch, after Chen Yu told me about your competition, I actually thought that Mr. Shi Lei probably had no intention of going to the island before you decided the winner.
, and the last level of your competition is to escape from this island. Whoever does it will get the $100 million prize. But I just can’t figure out why Mr. Shi Lei wants me to come to the island.
.And it is obvious that after arriving on the island, Old London still treats you differently from me. It only told you the so-called rules, but not me."
After taking a sip of wine, Cheng Yu suddenly shouted loudly: "Old London, come out here!"
The sound of the wheel appeared, and Old London soon appeared in the hall on the first floor, but it was still only a quarter.
"Mr. Cheng, what do you want? If it's just a small talk, I'm very busy right now and don't have time to accompany you."
Cheng Yu rolled his eyes and said, "Aren't you just making dinner now? What else can you be busy with?"
"The rain has stopped. Many places in the manor need to be cleaned and tidied up. Otherwise, if the weather turns sunny tomorrow, it will be very troublesome for you to go out. Mr. Cheng, if you have nothing else to do, I will go and do it first."
Cheng Yu quickly called out to it: "Don't worry, don't worry, Old London, I just want to ask you, will Mr. Shi Lei come to the island again?"
"I don't know this. You can ask the master yourself after he comes to the island."
Cheng Yu rolled his eyes and thought, is this the time to have fun?
"Then let me ask you again, when I came in in the morning, was there anything you hadn't had time to tell me? Mr. Chen Yu happened to come downstairs at that time and interrupted our conversation."
The three spring hands on Old London waved back and forth a few times, and it seemed to have remembered something. It said: "I remembered it. Mr. Shi Lei asked me to give it to you a letter. But that letter is not with me now.
, on No. 3, it is currently cleaning the manor with No. 2 and No. 4. You wait for them to come back and ask No. 3 to get it for yourself. I have to go back to the kitchen to cook, otherwise your meal time will be delayed again.
.”
After saying that, Old London left impatiently, leaving Cheng Yu and Guo Pingan staring at each other.
After a long while, Guo Ping'an said: "Okay, before the contents of that letter are revealed, I'm afraid everyone will keep an eye on you." After saying that, he raised the wine glass in his hand and said: "
Just wish yourself well."
When Cheng Yu noticed that Guo Pingan was saying this, he turned his head and glanced at the billiard area. Cheng Yu followed his gaze and saw only four people there, including Su Xi, who was still lying on the billiard table. At this moment, it was obvious that
They no longer thought about playing ball, but looked at him directly.
Cheng Yu was helpless and had to say loudly: "Did you hear it? It's not my fault. Old London missed the letter and didn't give it to me. What can I do? In the final analysis, the root cause of this matter is
The problem lies with Chen Yu. Old London communicated well with me at that time. If he hadn't intervened and suddenly appeared to talk to me, Old London wouldn't have missed the letter."
Deng Jingliang jumped up when he heard this, pointed at Chen Yu and said: "What he said makes sense, it's your fault!"
Chen Yu was speechless, thinking that this could be blamed on me. But thinking about it carefully, what Cheng Yu said really made sense. If he hadn't suddenly gone to talk to Cheng Yu and left Old London aside,
A robot like Old London that strictly followed the program would definitely hand over the letter to Cheng Yu. But it happened that Cheng Yu ignored Old London during that time, which caused Old London to skip that link.
So Chen Yu arched his hands, raised his head high, and said: "It seems that it really has something to do with me. I'm sorry everyone, it's my fault, but fortunately it's not too late to make amends. I'll wait for the old London No. 3 to come back later.
, tell it to take out the letter, and everything will be back on track."
Having said that, everyone present had doubts about this. After all, if the plaster ceiling that hit Cheng Yu just now was not an accident, but someone did it deliberately, then they would never be able to get back on track.
Up.
Even if it was an accident or not, it seemed that it would be difficult for them to get back on track.
After all, suspicion has quietly planted seeds in everyone's hearts. The only difference lies in how deep the connection between Cheng Yu and the seven of them is, and what purpose Shi Lei has in bringing Cheng Yu to the island. If it is determined that Cheng Yu is related to those
A hundred million dollars has nothing to do with it. Perhaps Cheng Yu's safety will be guaranteed to a certain extent, but the suspicion between the seven of them will never stop.
Especially Deng Jingliang and Liu Manman. They were just bickering before, but just now, Deng Jingliang almost accused Liu Manman of intending to attack Cheng Yu. They were almost at each other's throats at this moment. Once they were given a spark, these two would
People can burn immediately.
Cheng Yu sat down on the sofa and said loudly: "Forget it, just wait until I come back on the 3rd and read the letter."
Just like that, Cheng Yu and Guo Ping'an each sat on a sofa and stopped talking to each other. The four people in the billiards area were still playing. Cheng Yu found that although Bai Xiaowen was socially fearful,
, although she is timid even when speaking when nothing happens, she is not afraid to stay in a small space with others, and it seems that she does not like to be alone, which seems to be a bit different from other sociophobic people.
different.
However, Cheng Yu didn't have the time to think too much now, and he couldn't ask such a thing. What Cheng Yu was thinking about right now was what was written in the letter Shi Lei left for him. This Shi Lei put the people in the virtual space
What is the purpose of bringing this great author Cheng Yu to the island?
The time arrived at eight o'clock before he knew it, and it was dinner time. Guo Ping'an greeted Cheng Yu and entered the restaurant first.
The four people from the billiards area also came over. Cheng Yu saw them, waved his hand and said, "You go first, I will be there soon."
Although it was somewhat strange, Chen Yu, Su Xi and Bai Xiaowen quickly realized the reason. Only Deng Jingliang did not understand. Fortunately, he had not had any communication with Cheng Yu, and he did not care much about Cheng Yu.
Don't go in.
Chen Yu smiled and said in a low voice to Su Xi and Bai Xiaowen: "The master is really cowardly. If Liu Manman knows about it, how can he be embarrassed?"
That's right, the reason why Cheng Yu was not in a hurry to enter the restaurant was because he had to sit down after entering. Even if he pulled Chen Yu and Bai Xiaowen to sit beside him, there was no guarantee that Liu Manman would choose to sit directly opposite him. Although he didn't know
Why does Liu Manman have a soft spot for him, but Cheng Yu is really afraid that she will seduce him again in the restaurant. Cheng Yu thought about the four men in the seven-person group and thought that none of you heroes can
Did you take action to capture that goblin? It's quite annoying.
A few minutes later, Liu Manman came down. When she saw Cheng Yu sitting alone in the fireplace area, she naturally wanted to twist her waist to show her favor. But it was a pity that Cheng Yu heard her rhythmic footsteps.
, immediately stood up and ran straight towards the stairs.
When he passed by Liu Manman, Cheng Yu said, "Oh, I remembered that I had to go upstairs to get something."
Liu Manman knew that Cheng Yu was trying to avoid her, so she bit her lower lip lightly and rolled her eyes, but it was more like ogling the air, and then she continued to twist Yang Liu's slim waist towards the restaurant.
Gone.
Of course, Cheng Yu didn't really want to get anything. He just went up the stairs and turned a corner, and then waited for Liu Manman's footsteps to disappear before slowly walking down.
However, Cheng Yu still did not go directly to the restaurant. First, he wanted to give Liu Manman time to slowly choose a seat, so that Cheng Yu could not sit next to her or sit opposite her and be seduced by her eyes. Secondly, Cheng Yu
Yu also wanted to see if the other three-quarters of Old London were about to come back. If they came back, he wanted to get the letter and read it before entering the restaurant. The content of the letter must be
It needs to be made public, but before making it public, Cheng Yu still hopes that it would be better for him to know the content first, at least that way he can make a cleaner choice.
However, after waiting and waiting for the three-quarters of Old London to come back, Cheng Yu saw that the time was almost a quarter past eight, so he had no choice but to turn around and walk into the restaurant.
As soon as he entered, Cheng Yu noticed that everyone was staring at him, but no one had touched a chopstick on the dishes on the table.
Cheng Yu knew that the five people who already knew the existence of the letter had also told Xie Yanwen and Liu Manman about it, so the seven of them were not in the mood to eat now, but were all waiting for Cheng Yu to take out the letter.
Make the content public.
Cheng Yu shrugged his shoulders and saw Bai Xiaowen and Su Xi sitting on Liu Manman's left, while Su Xi's left was still empty. He didn't care so much and walked directly to Su Xi and sat down next to her.
When his butt touched the chair, Cheng Yu clearly heard Su Xi next to him let out a very slight laugh.
Cheng Yu was also speechless. He picked up the tablecloth on the table, shook it off and said, "Why are you guys so polite? You still have to wait for me. Now that everyone is here, don't be cautious. It's time to eat."
It’s time to drink. As for that letter, Old London on the 3rd hasn’t replied yet!”
