Chapter 29: The Curse

"Can you tell us something about Dong Xie and Dong Ning?" What Mo Yuan was most concerned about at this time, was this question, he had a vague feeling that these two might still be alive. His subconscious mind, always didn't quite believe that their siblings were dead. "My daughter, Flower Fire, should have mentioned about them to all of you." Himura Kara on the other side of the screen replied faintly. "I would like to know more." After a long time, Himura Garo on the other side of the screen asked, "Are you here for them?" After Mo Yuan pondered for a while, he did not answer "yes" directly. They had to stay here all the time during the Blood Word mission. Therefore, they had to have a reason to stay here all the time. "Not exactly." After a long moment of silence on the other side of the screen, Himura Kara replied, "I would like to caution you all about something very important. If you wish to be able to enhance your lifespan, then it is best …… to stay away from the brother and sister duo." As soon as these words came out, Mo Yuan and the others all changed in color. It was true that as an apartment dweller, it was indeed likely that they would die in the future. However, at this point, Mo Yuan and the others were not much different. Mo Yuan's hand rubbed the cell phone in his hand in death, he still hoped until now that the cell phone would recover its signal sometime, and perhaps there would be a chance to contact them. He felt that Dong Qi and Dong Ning might still be in this place. "Please explain this to us." Qin Ziyuan's face was also quite ugly at this moment, his first reaction at this moment was the evil spirits in Hawaii, and then he associated them with Fang Han. He had always believed that Dong Xie would be haunted by that evil spirit in Hawaii, and it was likely that there was Fang Han's manipulation behind it. Utilizing evil spirits to deal with humans, such a thing had been done by Fang Han before. Since there had been a first time, there was no doubt that there could be a second time. Himura Kara then replied, ''It's best for you all not to know. Often times, it's happier to know less." "Is it because of that photo?" Qin Ziyuan continued to pursue, "Was it the photo he showed you yesterday?" Mo Yuan and Qin Ziyuan were both quite concerned about the life and death of Dong Xie Dong Ning, while on the contrary, Nie Han was indifferent, she knew that it was Fang Han who had sent Dong Xie to Hawaii, but what exactly had happened in the process, she didn't know and didn't intend to know. If Fang Han were to make an enemy of the apartment dwellers for some reason, she would definitely be on the same side as him. To put it in the extreme, if Fang Han s life and the apartment dweller s life couldn t coexist, she would be just as willing to kill for his …… sake! Therefore, the deaths and lives of that pair of siblings were simply inconsequential to her. There was another long moment of silence behind the screen. "They are destined to suffer a curse beyond imagination. But exactly what it is, I'm not sure. One can only say that it is a horror beyond your phenomenon." When saying the word "horror", Himura Kara was accented. "I'm just a temporary witch, nowhere near as good as Your Highness Koue …… If it was her, she should be able to see deeper." …… Kitayama Jinghuang picked up the drenched copy of Kinkakuji from the ground. Back then, Aunt Yukie was extremely fond of this masterpiece by Yukio Mishima, often placing it on the table before bedtime. Out of curiosity, she had read some of Yukio Mishima's works, but was completely unable to adapt to the depressing writing style inside. She had a deep-seated dislike for the Japanese love of tragedy, perhaps because she was only half Japanese. She remembered the first time she read Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and when she saw Guan Yu die at the hands of Lu Meng, she could hardly believe it and cried all night. She looked at the bloodstains on the book and her eyes widened. Even the distribution of the blood was exactly the same as it was back then …… She even trembled as she opened the book and saw the notes that Aunt Yukie had made back then! "Impossible ……" Aunt Yukie was buried underneath that cherry blossom tree planted at the back of the Guru-no-kan. The Japanese love cherry blossoms for their brief opening splendor followed by rapid fading. Once the generations of witches of this family died, their bodies were buried under that cherry tree. And at that time, this book, too, was placed in her aunt's coffin and buried with her. She remembered …… it clearly! The door in front of her eyes slowly closed, while Jing Huang began to continuously retreat, just at this time, she suddenly felt that her back hit something! "Ah!" She immediately turned her head back, but she saw that the person standing behind her was clearly Himura Hanabi with an icy face. "You ……" "Miss Jing Huang," Flower Flame's expression was still like a mechanical one that could not see even the slightest change, "It's time to go have lunch." For some reason, Kitayama Jing Huang had a strong feeling of revulsion and nausea when she saw Himura Hanabi's current expression. This was the same feeling that her mother gave herself. She remembered that when she was a child, her mother, Himura Kara, had always followed Aunt Yukie along with her maids of honor, and had temporarily taken over the position of witch after Aunt Yukie's death until today. She knew that Mrs. Kara had always looked up to Aunt Yukie, but, at her core, she just didn't like mother and daughter Himura. "I know …… now ……" But this time when she came back, Jing Huang had more of a fear than that subconscious unhappiness. And this kind of fear was constantly rising in the heart. As Himura Hanabi walked towards the door, she had been subconsciously keeping her distance from Himura Hanabi. Just now …… she didn't feel this female come to her back at all, it was almost as if she suddenly appeared from behind! This is really also …… too …… As soon as she thought of this, her heart became even more clenched for a few minutes. …… Mo Yuan and the others walked down the corridor, guided by the maids of honor, to the Lo Xin Women's Pavilion, which was used for entertaining guests. "When Dong Xie and I last spoke yesterday, he seemed to want to tell me something." Mo Yuan murmured, "He seemed to have found something here." "Well, but it was raining heavily at that time, and then the signal was cut off." Qin Ziyuan was also thinking that he had probably found an important clue, "As soon as we entered the interior of the Sea of Trees, the cell phone signal was immediately disconnected. And it seems like the people of the Beishan family didn't have any feelings about the matter of the cell phone signal being disconnected." The people of this family were definitely hiding a lot of things, there wasn't any doubt about that. However, what exactly they were hiding was now unknown. And there was no doubt that they would never be able to force them to ask them, this was after all someone else's territory. "Go find Beishan Jinglong." Mo Yuan, Qin Ziyuan and Nie Han all came to this conclusion. He and Dong Xie were sort of online friends, and they seemed to have a good conversation after meeting yesterday, so if they went to find him, they should be able to talk and know something. "Well, let's hope we can get some useful information from him." "But …… I didn't expect that he was actually Mother Ziyi's ex-boyfriend. It's really quite unexpected." This, indeed, was out of the residents' expectations. However, it was just a small hiccup. As long as he himself didn't enter the apartment, it wouldn't have any impact. Residents who didn't enter the apartment generally wouldn't believe in the existence of the apartment, not only because of common sense, but also because of the spiritual influence exerted by the apartment, of course something like Mo Yuan who himself instead had the will to enter the apartment of his own accord would be an exception. Not long after entering the Loxin Hall, Mo Yuan noticed a young man standing in the corridor in front of him. That young man was looking at his cell phone, and immediately raised his head after noticing them. The maid who brought them here immediately bowed towards that young man and said, "Young Master Jing Long." "They are the clients of the reservation? People who know Dong Xie, right?" At this time, Mo Yuan stepped forward and said, "Hello, my name is Mo Yuan ……" "Hm? Your name is so familiar, yes, it's from that novel Devil's Apartment ……" "Mr. Kitayama, I have something I want to talk to you about. Please ……" Mo Yuan followed the Japanese example and bowed as well. And Kitayama Jinglong, who had been talking in China for years, more as if he was Chinese, hastily helped Mo Yuan up. "I see, do you have anything to ask me?" He could tell that the other party had something very urgent that he must ask him about no matter what. What exactly was the matter?
