The first thousand two hundred and twenty-three chapters have a problem with neighbors

His mind was racing, Xue Chen thought about it a lot, and finally decided to take another look at the situation. He looked through the pickup truck and observed the highly decomposed body inside. It was already difficult to see, and most of the clothes were gone.

The pieces were hanging on top of Luo's body holding the bones. The only thing that could be seen was that the upper body was wearing a leather jacket. The quality was quite good and it was not completely damaged.

He first looked around the car to see if he could find anything. He also activated his control ability and opened the storage box in the car. He was a little surprised to find that one was rusty and looked unsightly.

The wooden handle of the shotgun was rotten, but the barrel, which was more than 20 centimeters long, was still intact.

Except for a rotten gun, there was nothing else in the storage box. Immediately, Xue Chen's eyes were on the corpse again. Soon, he made some new discoveries and he used it a little bit.

I opened the zipper of the rusty chest pocket and found a pile of soaked stuff inside. Only the plastic cover was still intact, which showed that it was a driver's license!

Xue Chen's mind moved, and he carefully wrapped the rotten driver's license soaked in it with his control ability, dragged it up from the pool bit by bit, quietly broke through the water, and was moved into the Jade Eye Space by him

Inside.

Xue Chen did not tell anyone that there was a pickup truck and a corpse under the pond. At least, he would not make it public until he found out the identity of the deceased and why he died under the pond.

Moreover, he planned to clarify this matter, otherwise, he would be a little worried about Gao Dewei.

Precisely because he knew that there was a corpse at the bottom of the pool, although it was clear that it would not have any impact on the water quality of a thirty-meter-deep pool, it still had a certain impact on Xue Chen's appetite, just a simple

I ate some and then walked away pretending to solve personal problems.

After walking far away, Xue Chen took out the documents found from the corpse from the Jade Eye Space and placed them on the ground. It can be said that facing the documents that were soaked and turned into a puddle of mud, even the world

Even the most powerful advanced instruments in the world cannot have any effect.

Xue Chen squatted down, stretched out his right hand, and floated on the pile of things. The time reversal and amplification abilities were activated at the same time, but they only acted on the palm-sized driver's license.

One second, two seconds... In the first few seconds, there was basically no change, but after almost ten seconds, suddenly, the driver's license, which was originally a puddle of mud, suddenly changed dramatically.

The mud turned upside down and looked like it had before it was soaked. Although it was a little worn, it was still intact!

Hold the driver's license in your hand, open the cover you added on the outside, and you will see the light blue driver's license inside, which not only contains the deceased's information, but also a head photo.

The photo shows a white man. Based on his date of birth, if he had not died, he would have been fifty-five years old. His name was Ethan.

"Ethan..." What is the identity of this person? And why did he die in the pool on the farm's hill? The most important thing is whether Gao Dewei will be affected by accepting the farm. This is the most important thing.

A man stayed in the woods for a while. When Xue Chen returned, he was surprised to see several strangers, three in total, all of them men, all dressed in hunting attire.

After walking over, he realized that these three people were from the farm next door and were hunting on another mountain. He accidentally saw smoke appearing on the mountain here. He was worried that there was a forest fire, so he came to take a look.

"Is this gentleman the new owner of Ethan Farm? Nice to meet you. I am the owner of Odin Farm. Since everyone is dining, I won't disturb you, but you must remember to put out the fire completely. After all,

, our farms are right next to each other, and I don’t want to be affected.”

The speaker was a very strong man, wearing long leather boots and a brown hunting suit. He was holding a long shotgun in his hand. The brown eyes in the eye sockets were very sharp.

Gao Dewei said he would not do it in English very kindly.

Old Tony on the side muttered a few words with some dissatisfaction: "We know what to do, you just go back to your own territory."

When the three of them were about to leave, the leading man glanced at the pots, pans, and food on the floor, and with a smile on his face, he said, "I think the water you use for cooking is the water in this pool.

"

"Is there a problem? The water in this pool is very clear." Andrew replied,

But the man didn't say anything else, he just glanced at everyone again, turned around and walked back.

Xue Chen always stood on the edge. When he heard the man mention the words Ethan Farm, he was shocked. It turned out that the name of the farm bought by Gao Dewei was called Ethan Farm, and the man who died at the bottom of the pool

Also called Ethan, it can't be a coincidence. Nine times out of ten, the Ethan who died was the Ethan from Ethan's farm.

Gao Dewei really hopes to have a good relationship with his neighbors, and has always wanted to find opportunities to communicate with the people on the farm next door. After all, as the old saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, especially in a place like Canada with a vast land and sparsely populated areas.

, even more so, we may need to help each other in the future.

"Uncle Tony, have you had any conflicts with our neighbors?" He could see that the always good-tempered old Tony was not very friendly to the neighbor who suddenly appeared just now.

Old Tony's stomach trembled, and he muttered unhappily that he didn't like the neighbor on the farm next door. The reason was that he had hunted in the mountains with the previous owner of the farm, Gao Dewei's friend, and was injured while chasing one.

The red deer arrived on the property of the farm next door.

This is a normal thing. They are not stealing things, they are just hunting for prey. However, they were discovered by people from the farm next door, who blocked them and drove them back. They also said that the farm is private land and is not allowed.

Outsiders can enter at will.

Xue Chen's eyes flickered inadvertently.

"That's it." Gao Dewei scratched his head and felt that those people were indeed a little unkind. If it were him, he would definitely not be so rude and might even make a cup of tea to receive the guests.

By this time, everyone had basically finished eating and was dealing with the tableware.

"Ethan's farm was established by Ethan?" Xue Chen asked old Tony.

Old Tony looked at him and said casually that Ethan's farm was not founded by Ethan, but the name was changed later. Ethan was the previous owner of the farm. When he mentioned Ethan, Old Tony sighed subconsciously and shook his head.

There was some confusion and sadness on his face.

"Ethan is a very good person, and it was he who brought me to work on the farm..."

"What about others?" Xue Chen asked hurriedly.

Old Tony lowered his head slightly, shook his head and said he didn't know: "Ethan is missing. He originally went to inspect the farm, but he never came back. At first, everyone thought he was attacked by a wild animal. Or the car overturned, but after three full days of searching, no one was found, and his favorite pickup truck also disappeared with it."

"That's right." Xue Chen frowned, feeling more and more that this matter was not simple, and he also vaguely realized that this matter seemed to have something to do with the neighbors next door. He regretted a little, and he should have stopped those people just now If you're down, use your mind-reading ability to explore the truth.

In the afternoon, a group of people dragged their tired bodies down the mountain and returned in a pickup truck. This was also the last day. Tomorrow, most of them would go back. They also took Xue Chen's plane, but Xue Chen did not go there in person. I will go, but I plan to temporarily hire a pilot from the airline to take charge of a round trip.

Because in a few days, he and Shen Zixi will attend Andy Carnegie's 20th birthday party.

The next morning, everyone arrived at the airport, and Xue Chen watched other people board the plane one by one.

Wang Hongmei took Xue Chen's hand and said in a very cordial manner: "Xiao Xue, aunt and Xiao Bing had a very happy time this time. Thank you so much. When you return to China, you must go home. Auntie, give it to you Make delicious food and we will be a family from now on."

Luo Bing forgot to glance at Xue Chen, and then looked elsewhere silently.

Seeing this scene, Gao Dewei, Jing Yunxing and Qi Hu all had more or less strange expressions on their faces. Naturally, they had already noticed something. They were clearly planning to recruit a son-in-law, but The problem is, if nothing else, there should be quite a few potential competitors here.

Everyone boarded the plane one by one, and in the end only three people were left, Xue Chen, Gao Dewei and Shen Zixi.

"Ha, brother Xue, when will you leave for the United States to attend your friend's birthday party?" Gao Dewei asked after the Sunshine flew away.

"There's no rush." ​​Xue Chen thought to himself that he must at least find out what happened in the pool. Otherwise, he was really worried about Gao Dewei staying here alone.

"Well, as you said, it seems that I really need to find a woman. I didn't feel anything before, but one day you will leave and I will be left alone. It will be very boring." Gao Dewei clicked his tongue. Mouth, he sighed softly.

Shen Zixi smiled.

Xue Chen's eyes moved: "Yes, everything is good here, but it lacks vitality. I think, why not find some time to visit the neighbor's house next door and get to know each other, maybe we can make friends. That way, in the future We can also keep in touch more.”

"That's fine." Gao Dewei agreed with Xue Chen's suggestion.

In the morning of the next day, the two of them took a pickup truck to visit the Odin Farm next door. Gao Dewei also prepared a gift, high-end tea brought from China.

"Make friends?" Xue Chen thought to himself, if those people really have potential problems, I'm afraid they won't be able to make friends. (To be continued)
