"Tsk."
Wang Quan was instantly enraged.
He had just evolved from a "moral role model" to a "moral vacuum" and was planning to drive 200 km/h on the highway with a speed limit of 60 km/h.
But now, he was stopped at the toll booth before he even got on the highway?
Seeing the pleading look in Wangyue Lin's eyes, Wang Quan sighed and turned to open the door. "What's wrong?"
It was Hanako Nohara, the manager of Ningyue Manor, outside the door.
She bowed slightly. "I'm sorry to disturb you so late at night. May I know if you have time to attend the welcome party at Ningyue Manor tonight?"
"Welcome party?" Wang Quan was amused. "Welcome who? Me? "
The old woman said softly, "No, we didn't have a welcome party when everyone came. Since everyone is here, I want to hold a welcome party to let everyone get to know each other."
"Sure, I'll attend. When?" Wang Quan agreed immediately this time.
"It'll be held at 12 o 'clock tonight in my room on the first floor."
"Sure, I'll be there then."
Hanako Nohara said happily, "That's great! Now there's only one person left! "
'Only one person left …' Wang Quan raised his eyebrows.
If he was not mistaken, his room was at the innermost part of the second floor.
That meant the last person was Wangyue Lin.
He opened the door and looked at Hanako Nohara.
Hanako Nohara turned and left.
Wang Quan watched as she turned the corner in the middle of the corridor and went downstairs before closing the door.
Then, there was a knock on the door.
Wang Quan was speechless.
He turned to open the door and saw Hanako Nohara in a dark kimono standing quietly outside.
Wang Quan rolled his eyes and waved at Wangyue Lin. "Ling, it's for you."
Wangyue Lin had already put on her clothes.
She jogged over, then Hanako Nohara roughly repeated what she had said to Wang Quan.
Under Wang Quan's affirmation, Wangyue Lin also agreed to attend the welcome party at midnight.
Hanako Nohara didn't knock on the door again after she left.
Wangyue Lin was a little puzzled. "Sir, why does the welcome party have to be held at midnight?"
"Because there's a problem, my little Rei-chan." Wang Quan angrily rubbed the cat's head. "When I first arrived, I went from house to house and gave gifts. This Ning Yue Manor is actually quite interesting, but I didn't think much of it back then."
Moreover, it was hard to tell that a freak was a killer before it entered a murderous state.
At that time, Wang Quan only thought that Hanako Nohara might be a little crazy because of the death of her son and husband.
The problem was actually with a few residents.
But now, it seemed that the biggest problem was actually Hanako Nohara.
"Sir, what should we do? Do you want me to contact the Public Security Department Six? "With Wang Quan around, the little girl gave up thinking.
"No need, let's go and take a look first." Wang Quan exercised his wrist. "It's just as well. I can move around and sleep soundly at night."
Wang Quan was thinking about something.
He had just fallen out with Wangyue Xiao, and this happened at night.
Was it really such a coincidence?
If Hanako Nohara was really a freak, then it might be such a coincidence.
But there were all kinds of people in the other households.
Would Wangyue Xiao really let her daughter live in such a place alone?
Wang Quan didn't believe it.
Even if he didn't care, he couldn't let her bring shame to the Wangyue family.
Hmph, anyway, with Wang Quan around, even horror movies could be made into silly comedies.
Soon, it was 11: 55 midnight.
Wang Quan and Wangyue Lin dressed neatly and left the house.
When they passed by the other households, Wang Quan didn't see any lights coming on.
There was no movement in the house either.
Downstairs, the two came to the caretaker's residence at the corner.
This two-story apartment building looked like a horizontal "L" from a bird's eye view. Wang Quan's house was the tip of the "L" on the second floor.
Hanako Nohara's caretaker's room was on the short side.
The short side was a two-story duplex with a staircase to the second floor.
It wasn't rented out to the public.
Standing in front of the caretaker's room, Wang Quan looked around.
The surroundings were very quiet. There wasn't even the sound of stray cats or dogs.
Not to mention the sound of cars passing by.
It seemed that Ningyue Manor had become a place independent of the world.
Wang Quan yawned and knocked on the door.
Knock knock knock —
He knocked three times.
The door was quickly opened.
Hanako Nohara bowed slightly and said enthusiastically, "Please come in!"
"Sorry to disturb you." Wang Quan nodded and walked in.
They took off their shoes at the entrance and changed into disposable slippers. They stepped on the tatami and entered the living room.
"Welcome!"
There was a girl with maroon hair and bronze skin who was brimming with enthusiasm.
She was Miyu Komiya, who lived next door to Wangyue Lin's left.
She was a short-haired girl.
Although she was dressed like a popular "hot girl" from Shibuya, she was actually a nice person.
That was if relationships weren't mentioned.
For example, she had invited Wang Quan when she sent him a gift, but Wang Quan had rejected her invitation.
However, there were also people with gloomy expressions.
For example, the man sitting next to them.
The man's hairline was slightly high. He wore a suit and leather shoes and was about forty years old.
However, he looked haggard and had an unshaven beard.
At first glance, one would think that he was a single man.
But combined with the environment of Ningyue Manor …
Perhaps he was a single, middle-aged man who had been divorced and had all his assets and children taken away.
This man was called Masao Inoue. He wasn't a problematic person.
When Wang Quan sent the gift that day, he happened to see this man killing his ex-wife at home.
However, this wasn't the country. As an internationally renowned double standard, Wang Quan couldn't be bothered.
The main thing was that the man's eyes were filled with despair. He was probably planning to commit suicide.
There was no need for Wang Quan to do this.
In the end, this old man was still alive.
It seemed that he had lost the courage to commit suicide.
Wang Quan greeted him. Masao Inoue dodged his gaze and didn't dare to meet his eyes.
He looked around again.
There were twelve rooms upstairs and downstairs. Ten of them were occupied (including Wangyue Lin's).
There were thirteen people in total.
They were sitting around a big round table.
Wang Quan smiled and pulled Wangyue Lin to an empty seat.
Wangyue Lin was on Wang Quan's right. On her right was the short-haired "hot girl" Miyu Komiya.
On Wang Quan's left was a short-haired girl with delicate features. He had an impression of her.
This girl was called Akiko Watanabe. She was a NEET and was shy with strangers.
But looking at her evasive eyes, Wang Quan smiled. "Don't be too nervous. We won't be contacting each other in the future anyway. There's no need to care about the atmosphere. Just eat and drink and that's it. "
Although it was almost impossible to eat and drink.
Akiko Watanabe didn't say anything. She just nodded with a forced smile.
After closing the door, Hanako Nohara came in.
She prepared a small pot and a small alcohol stove for everyone on the table. Then, she prepared sterile eggs, sake, and orange juice.
"Everyone's finally here. Let's eat sukiyomi tonight!"
"Oh oh!!"
Apart from Miyu Komiya and two or three others who cheered along, no one else said anything.
After everyone sat down, the welcome party officially began.
But most people didn't even touch their chopsticks.
Seeing the stiff atmosphere, Hanako Nohara clapped her hands and smiled. "Everyone, let's play a game of one hundred demons."
