Chapter 1564 Moon Black Wind High Killing Night (10)
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense. There was no way to help it. After all, what happened last night was something that could not be forgotten.
However, in order not to make the woman suspicious, Hu Xiaodong still responded cheerfully: "Auntie, is something okay?"
After the words fell, Lao Xu, Hu Xiaodong, and Huo Yuankai all pricked up their ears.
Undoubtedly, the woman's next answer is very important, as it will directly affect the next development of the situation.
"Oh, it's nothing. I just came here to tell you that we usually have breakfast at this time. You don't know what's going on when you first come here, so hurry up."
"Huh~" Hu Xiaodong breathed out almost subconsciously and glanced at Lao Xu.
The latter calmly pointed to the back of his body. The meaning was very obvious, and he intended to tell Hu Xiaodong that "walls have ears" and not to communicate any unnecessary things.
Hu Xiaodong, who understood Lao Xu's worries, immediately replied with a smile: "Oh, it's for dinner. Auntie knows, thank you, we will get up and go there."
"Well, it's still the same place. You can get up and go there by yourselves." After saying that, it became quiet again outside the door.
Since the women had personally come to "invite" them, Hu Xiaodong and others naturally couldn't delay.
They quickly got up and washed up. After settling personal matters, Hu, Huo and Xu went out to the restaurant together.
I arrived at the restaurant with ease, and there were already many people sitting inside.
Lao Xu carefully looked at the facial expressions of the survivors inside. Everyone seemed relatively calm. It seemed that no one was causing trouble because of the shock last night.
Lao Xu couldn't help but be a little stunned by this.
Are the psychological qualities of the survivors here so strong?
According to common sense, when such a big thing happened in their family, and it was in such a sensitive period as the end of the world, how could they sit in a restaurant and enjoy food so calmly?
This is obviously inconsistent with the family philosophy promoted by the manor owner.
At least from the perspective of Lao Xu, an onlooker, he could not tell that the so-called family members in front of him had any worries about the manor.
Inexplicably and suspiciously, Lao Xu followed Hu Xiaodong and Huo Yuankai to get the dinner plate and cook.
The meal is very simple, a bowl of porridge and some side dishes.
It's not very rich, but in such a harsh environment in the last days, being able to have such a comfortable environment and eat such hot meals is already something that many people can't hope for.
As usual, he found someone to sit down at. After all the events yesterday, Hu Xiaodong knew that instead of running away and hugging someone coldly, it would be better to avoid them wisely.
Sure enough, the three of them didn't look for "trouble" with anyone, and the indifferent survivors of the manor didn't deliberately avoid them.
Everyone ate their meals at the table in such a relatively awkward and harmonious atmosphere.
The scene was indescribably weird.
This is quite uncomfortable for the members of the Victors Alliance team who are used to everyone getting together to talk, laugh and chatter.
But what can be done? After all, this is a family's territory, not a village settlement.
As a newcomer, it is understandable to be excluded and ignored.
But just when Lao Xu and the others were "left out and miserable", a figure took the initiative to sit down beside them.
"Auntie!?" I didn't know whether to be happy or worried. When Hu Xiaodong glanced sideways and saw the coming figure, a flash of uneasiness flashed across his face.
"How was it? How did you sleep last night?" Putting down the dinner plate, the woman asked a question straight to the point.
This question was asked quite mysteriously. The woman did not directly name what happened last night, but only made a sideways comment about how she slept last night.
But there is no doubt that the other party definitely knew that Hu Xiaodong and others opened the window and lifted the curtain to peek at the little man's incident.
so……
Hu Xiaodong is not stupid. If he doesn't have this kind of discernment after having been in business for many years, then his life will be in vain.
"I slept well, but..." Hu Xiaodong hesitated with a hint of embarrassment on his face.
This was a deliberate drama on his part. When the old woman saw it, she was not surprised and asked, "What is it?"
"It's just that something happened outside the manor last night, and we were all woken up." Hu Xiaodong smiled helplessly, and Hu Xiaodong brought up the topic just right.
Undoubtedly, it is extremely unwise to play tricks with women at this time.
Since the other party asked this, he naturally wanted to know his own view on the incident.
In this case, it would be unwise for our side to still prevaricate and avoid this topic.
After all, the people who monitor you are not just there to make a living. They know exactly what you are doing in the room.
"Well, tell me what happened last night." Regarding Hu Xiaodong's reply, the woman acted very calmly and did not show much expression.
Hu Xiaodong took advantage of the situation and continued: "Yeah, hiss~ Last night we heard the noise outside, and at first we thought it was a zombie attack, so we all hurriedly got up to see if there was anything we could do to help. But... lifted the curtain..." Again
He hesitated to speak, so Hu Xiaodong used these words to find an excuse for opening the window without authorization and violating the rules of women.
The brothers are worried that the manor will be attacked by zombies and take corresponding self-rescue measures. It's better for your wife to make this difficult.
The woman took a sip of porridge, and then sighed: "What happened last night can be regarded as our dereliction of duty."
With ambiguous answers, Hu Xiaodong and Xu Renjie looked at each other and then asked: "Auntie, I wonder what happened to that guy? The manor is fine. He was kicked in the head by a donkey and wanted to run out. I said..."
Pretending to be on guard, Hu Xiaodong looked around twice, then approached the woman and continued in a low voice: "That guy doesn't have any plans for the manor. There are many people like Auntie in the last days, we have to guard against them.
.”
Perfect answer.
With a few simple words, Hu Xiaodong not only drew a clear line between him and the smaller man, but also expressed his own attitude. More importantly, he also made some insinuations to test the woman's oral style, so as to find out the truth about what happened last night.
After listening to Hu Xiaodong's remarks, the woman sighed softly again.
"Things are not as complicated as you think. To be honest, this person is also a survivor who has just come to us recently. You also know that our management here is very strict. As the saying goes, there is no rule without rules. We can show our ability in the last days.
Until now, in addition to relying on the joint efforts of the manor family, the most important thing is that we have our own rules and regulations, so the survivors who come here to seek refuge must abide by these regulations, otherwise they will be punished. And what happened yesterday was because of the newcomers
The survivors cannot adapt to our rules and want to escape."
Wuzi nodded, and the woman gave a lot of detailed answers.
However, Hu Xiaodong felt that there were too many far-fetched things in it. If nothing else, he didn't think there was any rule that was more unacceptable than being scared outside with zombies.
