C8 Gatekeeper

"These two doors, you mean?"

The gatekeeper hesitated for a moment before nodding slightly. "Yes." It was as if he didn't want to admit it.

Suri oak pretended to be uninterested and asked, "What's in there?" "So important?"

"I'm not sure either, but they should be very precious."

"How long have you been here?" asked Suli.

"I was hired just three days ago."

Su Li nodded thoughtfully. It turned out that she had only been here for a few days. That meant that she did not even know that she had passed by here and had heard the scream.

She laughed and said, "It just so happens that I've been very bored lately. I want to go in and see what good stuff I have." After speaking, she brought Xiao Yue along with her and pretended that she wanted to barge in.

The gatekeeper used his body to stop her, "No, no!" Her face was contorted and cold sweat beaded her forehead.

Xiao Yue scolded loudly, "Who gave you the guts to stop the young mistress? Is this your home? Look carefully, this is the home of the young master and the young mistress. If you mess with the young mistress, she can fire you at any time! If you know what's good for you, then open the door for us! "

The janitor, still holding on to her bottom line, shielded the door with her body and said, "No, no one can go in! "The steward has repeatedly told me not to let anyone into the house. I beg you, please do my best and don't make things difficult for me anymore!"

Su Li thought for a moment, took a step back and said in a gentle voice, "Alright, I won't make things difficult for you. But tell me the truth, what exactly is inside? "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

"This... I don't know. "

"Did you hear any strange sounds coming from inside?"

"No …." "No." Her eyes twinkled as she said this, her expression unnatural.

This person must be lying. Back then, she had only inadvertently passed by and heard strange sounds coming from inside. Why hadn't this person heard him for three days? If there really was someone inside, it was impossible for them to not make a sound!

She must be hiding something from her!

Although the butler warned again and again, Suli oak not to be curious. However, she couldn't help herself from trying to find out. After all, she was a part of the manor. If there really was a secret behind it, how could she live in peace?

Just as the Suli oak tree was trying to coax the words out of the concierge's hand, the shrill scream suddenly rang out.

Ah!

Su Li and Xiao Yue jumped up in fright, hugging each other tightly!

The gatekeeper had an ugly expression on his face. He stomped his feet and paced around anxiously. His eyes flickered like ants on a hot pan.

She was not frightened by the sudden voice. There was no expression of surprise on her face, only worry. Because her lie had been exposed.

This time, the screeching of the Suli oak tree was the same as the last time, shrill and shrill, as if it were about to burst his eardrums. It was as if a little ghost in hell was being thrown into a pan of oil, letting out miserable cries. It was absolutely horrifying, making people's goosebumps rise up.

Xiao Yue hugged the oak tree tightly. She was also screaming, and her screams had almost drowned out the sounds coming from outside the door.

After five to six seconds, the screams stopped and Xiao Yue gradually recovered, returning to her normal state.

Suriyawong said in shock, "What's going on? We need to go in and take a look! " She made as if to charge in.

The guard stopped her and loudly said: "Young mistress, you must not go inside. Young master has ordered that no one is allowed inside!"

Upon hearing the two words' young master ', Quercus shuriensis stopped moving. Her intuition told her that this had nothing to do with Xing Beihan.

Puzzled, she asked, "Young Master?"

This was the man's territory. If he didn't want others to enter, he could still stop them from entering. This was his right to freedom. But why this room?

There must be something fishy going on here!

That man was already strange enough. Now that he had such a strange room, was he going to be addicted to suspense?

Why was she so unlucky? He thought he had married into a good family, but one thing after another, these kinds of things happened.

You are very unlucky, Quercus Suriyawong!

The gatekeeper seemed to have found a lifesaver as he solemnly vowed, "Yes, it's Young Master. He has instructed that no one is to enter, not even you. "

Xiao Yue shot out a string of words, "Didn't you say that this was just a warehouse? Why was there a sound from inside? Is someone there? Tell me, is there something in there that can't be exposed to the light? You actually refused to let me in, you're so secretive! "

Seeing that no one was listening, his head began to hurt. He frowned and said, "Don't make things difficult for me, quickly leave this place!"

"Tell me," said Suriyawong, "what is in the room? Is there anyone here? I'll leave after you explain everything! "

"No, there's no one inside. That voice is just …"

"What is it?"

"It was issued by the machine! Yes, it was sent by the machine. " The concierge nodded stiffly.

"What machine?"

"I don't know." She said this in a lower voice.

Su Li had some idea. Judging from the man's reaction, it was obvious that someone was inside. How could it be the sound of a machine? It was one thing for him to lie to a child like this, but there was no way he could lie to her.

The man had a very strange reaction. He looked flustered when he heard that she had said there was someone inside. What kind of machine was this? Wasn't this the same as creating a machine?

Suriyawong was sure that there was someone inside!

This was absolutely not a simple room.

"How do you make me believe you're telling the truth? Otherwise, we will not let this matter rest! "

The gatekeeper made a prayer with both hands and said in a sobbing tone, "I really don't know anything. Please don't make things difficult for me!"

If it weren't for the fact that there had been people frequently entering and exiting this room these past few days, and that it would be inconvenient to lock the door, she wouldn't have been sent here to check on the door. He had originally thought that this would be a simple and high-paying job. He hadn't thought that he would meet two people that liked to find fault with each other. She was really drunk!

Before taking the job, she had signed a confidentiality clause that she wouldn't tell anyone even if she was beaten to death. Otherwise, not only would she violate the contract, she would also be targeted by the Xing Family.

It had to be known that Xing Beihan was one of the most powerful families in the city. If he was angered, the consequences would be dire.

"I didn't mean to embarrass you. I just wanted to know what was inside. "After all, I am also from this family."

Even though her tone had softened, the doorman was still frightened, like an aggrieved lamb.

Su Li was speechless. At this moment, a familiar voice came from afar.

"Aiyo, isn't this Young Mistress? What brings you here? "

The housekeeper walked over with her fat body twisted. Her expression was strange and her smile was very hypocritical. There were several folds of flesh on her chin.
