618. I kill myself

Lily stayed in her room. She pinched her handkerchief, nervous and anxious. The nails of her thumbs were a little uneven. This was the mark left by chewing her own nails when she was nervous. She had never had such a habit in the past.

, I don’t know when it was developed.

She is scared now.

Lily was originally just a maid in the house. As a girl under twenty, her job was very simple, that is, cleaning and taking care of Mr. Browning.

Surprisingly, unlike the head maid who guided her, who warned her that all old people are difficult to deal with, the old man who was close to sixty years old was energetic and looked like a middle-aged man, even Lili.

He often misunderstands the other person's age, thinking that the person he is taking care of is not an old man, but an uncle who is only ten years older than himself.

Then, as written in many stories, Lily was thrown into bed by Browning one night. This kind of thing was very common in the wasteland. Those beautiful maids were easily seen by the rich masters.

If you are lucky, you can become a lover and get a considerable income within a period of time. If you are unlucky, you may be kicked out of your home and live in the world.

And people like Lily are very rare.

She was originally regarded as a lover by Browning, because Browning had lost his wife and there was no mistress to persecute her. If things were normal, Lily might become a regular because of her pregnancy, or at least be cared for along with her child.

care...

But Browning's sudden death made everything confusing.

If it had taken a little longer and Browning had recognized her in front of his family, then Lily could have stayed at home or been sent away with money from Browning's children.

But now, Browning's children and those shrewd guys will definitely not acknowledge Lily's existence, and will even slander her in various ways and drive her out of the house.

What's more, Lily heard that in some gangster families, such troublesome women might be disposed of, or thrown into the red ballroom to sell their bodies to make money.

Her only support now is Detective Stone.

Since the other party was entrusted by Browning, then maybe she could get shelter from him and at least save her own life.

Thinking of this, Lily felt a little dizzy and felt uncomfortable as if something was about to come out of her throat. She went to the bathroom and retched twice, but a cramping and burning sensation in her stomach made her give up her struggle and unscrew the

Lily washed her face with water from the faucet and raised her head.

In the mirror, Lily looked at her haggard face, with water droplets on her young and delicate skin. She had not had a good rest since Browning's death, and her eyes had deep bags and the whites of her eyes were bloodshot.

clang

Suddenly, there was a sound of metal colliding behind her. She hurriedly turned around and found that something had just fallen off the shelf in the bathroom.

After picking up the bottle and putting it back, Lily felt something floating behind her again.

Looking back, Lily only saw herself reflected in the mirror.

At this time, Lily suddenly felt something was wrong.

She carefully observed her pale face in the mirror, and then she suddenly discovered that Lily in the mirror was slowly raising the corners of her mouth, revealing a strange smile.

Seeing this scene, Lily's mouth opened slightly, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and her whole body tensed up. She watched Lily in the mirror with that sadistic and sinister smile, raising her two hands and reaching towards her smooth neck.

, firmly grasped her neck, and gradually applied force.

Lily glanced at her hand, but she didn't raise it like she saw in the mirror.

But the next moment, two handprints appeared on Lily's neck. The handprints became deep and deeply bound her neck, making Lily unable to breathe.

She suffocated.

Lili raised her hand to struggle, but she found that she couldn't grasp the hand in the mirror. She looked at the existence in the mirror that looked exactly like herself and showed a cruel smile. Her fear spread more and more. Soon, Lili felt that she

was lifted up.

Gu Xi/span> Those two invisible hands lifted her feet off the ground. Lily kept kicking her legs, but to no avail. She only felt that her eyes were dark and she was about to faint.

At this time, maybe it was a coincidence, or maybe it was some kind of will to survive that was hidden in the world. Lily felt that the hand holding her neck relaxed a little. Taking advantage of this moment, Lily used all her strength to scream.

The volume of the scream was a bit loud even for Lily herself. The next moment, the feeling of restraint around her neck became stronger again, and she could only make a tiny whimpering sound from her throat, just like the cry of a small animal before dying.

Lily didn't know how long had passed, but just when this short life began to appear before her eyes, a loud noise came from outside the door, and she suddenly felt that the hand holding her throat was let go.

thump

Lily knelt on the ground, her eyes still blurry. She looked at the person who seemed to be not the detective, but one of the men and women invited by Browning. The lack of oxygen in the brain caused Lily's consciousness to begin to fade away.

, she fainted quickly.

Lu Jian first looked around with his true vision and found no trace of the monster.

He knelt down and felt Lily's breath. It was faint, but still there.

On this woman's neck, two handprints could be seen, which were so forceful that they almost broke her slender neck, and her hand had just been released from her neck.

She almost strangled herself to death!

Opening Lily's eyelids, Lu Jian saw that her pupils were slightly dilated and she had no reaction to the light.

Although he was not dead, he probably also caused some damage to his brain.

Looking around, Lu Tiao fell on the mirror.

He walked closer and saw himself in the mirror with a serious expression.

Knocking on the mirror, Lu Jian confirmed that the back of the mirror was solid.

"What's wrong, my God!"

After Stone and Sia, Ms. Emma arrived. The lady with a fan in her hand took a deep breath when she saw the fallen Lily.

"What's wrong with her?"

Browning's son Rum arrived next. He heard the screams and came over. He saw several people in Lily's house and asked in a panic.

"She must have been affected by some kind of curse or spell and almost killed herself."

Stone said it in a way that is easy to understand and doesn't require much explanation.

For the people in the abandoned city, this statement applies to most situations. Anyway, Stone will not explain pollution and foreign lands, and monsters are too fantasy.

"There may be a curse from Taoist Heming in this mansion. It's best for everyone to stay together and not act alone."

"Curse, curse?"

Looking at Lily who was unconscious, Ms. Emma covered her mouth with a fan.
