Suddenly seeing a person sitting on the sofa, Lin Mo became vigilant subconsciously, but then he realized that this was not his house, and it was a very normal thing for someone to be inside.
On the contrary, it was a bit strange that he, an intruder, would be surprised by the owner of this room.
Even so, Lin Mo immediately blended the black shadow into the darkness of the entire room. After finding nothing strange, he walked towards the sofa.
"Auntie, I'm sorry, I was delayed by something yesterday, so I didn't come over."
Lin Mo walked closer and roughly saw the figure of the man. The man was none other than the one who had previously made a deal with Lin Mo and asked Lin Mo to help find his son's soul, and lent the black paper lantern to Lin Mo.
old lady.
"It's okay, the lantern has been prepared for you, you can take it away."
The old man didn't say much. He seemed to be sitting here just waiting for Lin Mo's arrival.
With the faint light coming from the window, Lin Mo saw the old man pointing at a black object on the coffee table, and then stood up from the sofa, as if he was going back to the room.
Taking a look at the black paper lantern on the table and the old man who was about to return to the room, Lin Mo's eyes shrank slightly, but he did not speak, nor did he stop the old man's actions, nor did he step forward to remove the black paper lantern.
Pick up the paper lantern.
Just standing there and watching quietly, until the old man returned to the room, Lin Mo slowly walked to the sofa in the living room and picked up the black paper lantern from the coffee table.
"It's really the same thing."
After lightly sniffing the scent of lamp oil inside the black paper lantern, Lin Mo discovered that it was the same thing as the oil in the small box given to him by Mr. Feng.
"This old lady is a bit strange. Although she said that the deal has been reached, she didn't even ask me a question from beginning to end. Is she really so trusting of me?"
"Or does this old man not care at all whether I can find her son's soul?"
The old man had already walked into the room at this time. The old man's attitude made Lin Mo very strange. After he reached a deal with the old man, the old man handed the small jar to him and never asked about her son again.
things.
If Lin Mo had previously thought that the old man might want to keep him away from the Huayuan Community, then now, after learning the identity of Mr. Feng, Lin Mo had a vague feeling that things were not that simple.
"It's also possible that what she gave me was not her son's soul at all. Although the possibility of such a situation is relatively small, it is not completely impossible."
"But if this is really the case, what is her purpose?"
Walking to the sofa and sitting down, Lin Mo looked at the closed room and frowned.
At first, Lin Mo just thought there was some connection between the old man and Lucy, but as things progressed, he gradually realized that the old man might not have much conflict.
But thinking about what Mr. Feng said before, if what Mr. Feng said is true, then this matter is a bit strange.
Lin Mo did not know this old man, and even if the other party could detect the power of the shadow, it would be impossible to determine Lin Mo's identity. For example, like Mr. Feng, Lin Mo actually tried to expose the other party's identity after he became aware of it.
Revealing his true identity and using his master's relationship to gain more benefits and trust from Mr. Feng.
The relationship between the two is not only due to Master Lin Mo, but also a relationship of interest. The secrets in the ancient book have become the strongest bond between the two.
Lin Mo had placed a strong defense on Liao Yu. Even if Mr. Feng discovered Liao Yu, Lin Mo was confident that he could protect Liao Yu's personal safety.
To control the ancient book and Liao Yu, to a certain extent, is to master the secret of the ancient book.
Lin Mo carried the ancient book with him and placed it in the mirror space of the past life. Under this situation, no one could directly take away Liao Yu and the ancient book at the same time, and the few patterns Lin Mo had given to Mr. Feng before could only
Discover the secrets of some ancient books.
As for the next patterns, if there is any progress in Feng Lao's reputation, Lin Mo will not hand them over to him so easily.
Even though Mr. Feng is Lin Mo's master's close friend, he must be wary of others. Lin Mo's master has been dead for many years. Time can change many things, and the human heart is the most complicated thing in the world.
Even if you are the best friend, after so many years, it is impossible to say that nothing has changed at all.
And from Feng Lao's behavior, Lin Mo could also infer that there was a group of people, or something, in Feng Lao, or in this garden community, watching every move of Feng Lao.
The most important thing is that Lin Mo has not heard many things related to this old man Feng from his master. Although considering the special nature of the Feng family, his master did not tell him because he was concerned about the rules of the Feng family.
But this left Lin Mo unable to completely determine Feng Lao's situation.
As for him revealing his true identity to Mr. Feng, that was also a test. Even though Mr. Feng is a member of the Feng family, he has stayed in Maple City for a long time, so it is impossible for him to not understand the things on the Yin and Yang Dao.
There had been such a big mess at Fengyuan Private High School, and now many people were looking for Lin Mo. It was impossible for Mr. Feng to know anything about this matter.
Lin Mo revealed his true identity just because he wanted to try to seal the
Did the old man have any other thoughts? He concealed his identity just to lure some people out, and leaked his identity to Mr. Feng just to see if he could lure two or a group of guys out.
The time has not yet reached eleven o'clock, and it has not turned dark outside yet. Lin Mo still has some time to sit in this room and rest.
Turning his head, the old man had returned to the room. There was nothing worth observing about the wooden door in the darkness. Lin Mo turned his head and looked out the window. He remembered that when he first stood on this balcony, Lin Mo looked at
Many people arrived.
What happened at that time made Lin Mo still not understand what happened.
Several households in the building opposite were still lighting up their lights. Looking at the flickering lights, Lin Mo's eyes darkened slightly and he fell into thought again.
"Why does this old man never turn on the light at night?"
"It's impossible for her house to turn off the lights all the time, and the few times I've been here, I've only come at night, and I've never been here during the day. Is there something wrong here that I don't know about?
?”
Seeing the light, compared to being in darkness at this time, Lin Mo thought that the relationship between the old lady and Lucy might not be what he thought, and Lin Mo also realized that there might be something hidden in it.
Something he didn't know.
The old man does not go out during the day, and only occasionally leaves the house at night to burn paper outside the community with a black paper lantern.
After Lin Mo came here, the old man could not go out at night, which meant that the old lady would never leave the room at all.
If this old man has been staying in this room, where did the lamp oil in her hand come from?
Lin Mo turned his eyes to the closed room, thinking deeply. Another thing that he couldn't figure out was that the old lady's room seemed to have never turned on the lights.
Through observation, Lin Mo knew that in this garden community, there was no problem with turning on the lights before eleven o'clock in the evening. For example, many residents in this community, including Mr. Feng, turned on the lights before eleven o'clock in the evening.
when, turn off the light.
What made Lin Mo notice the old lady before was none other than the light. It was precisely because of the flash of fire in the old lady's room at night that he found the old lady.
But since the other party dares to light candles in the room, then not lighting them is a problem that is not easy to explain.
If the other party was lighting up with candles, then forget it. However, when Lin Mo came to the old man's home several times, he never saw the old man lighting any candles or other light sources in the living room.
Lin Mo had to suspect that there was something fishy about this matter.
