"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!" Accompanied by a hysterical scream, Leonard, who was lying on the table, suddenly woke up. His face was so pale that it was almost bloodless, and there were big drops of sweat everywhere, and his luxurious silk shirt was even more wet. It sticks tightly to the back, as if the whole person has just been fished out of the water. It turns out...it turns out to be a dream... After struggling out of the nightmare, he looked at the bright sky outside the window. Leonard, who was so frightened and almost exhausted, couldn't help but slumped on the back of the leather chair, gasping for air like a person who was almost drowned. It seems that I have been too tired recently and the work intensity has been a bit too high. In addition, the woman I just mentioned aroused the fear in my heart, so I suddenly had that kind of dream. Moreover, the person from the cleanup bureau also said that she and she both have word spirits, so we can't get too close to him, and we can't use those weird things to attack ourselves, so we don't have to worry about her retaliation... Yes, it is like that! After comforting himself, Leonard turned around and shouted feebly: "mark……" "Mark...where are you?"
"Here I am!" After hearing his call, the secretary outside the door came in holding a towel and said with a flattering face: "Lord Leonard, after I came back from taking care of things at the manor, I found you taking a nap, so I didn't dare to come and disturb you. This is the hot towel I asked the maid to prepare. Please wipe your face first." "Well...you are interested..." After seeing the extremely normal performance of the secretary, the last trace of doubt in Leonard's heart dissipated. He raised his trembling palm, took the hot towel, and wiped the sweat on his face. After seeing his bloodless look, Secretary Mark couldn't help but ask: "Lord Leonard, are you... having a nightmare?" "Um……" After weakly responding, Leonard recalled the extremely real nightmare just now. His soul was shaken. Leonard really needed someone to help him relieve his fear. He couldn't help but said with a worried expression: "I dreamed...we were walking on the corridor after we finished the work, and then after you and I chatted for a few words, you suddenly turned into the monster child of the Baohua family and asked me where her body was thrown...and then …” "Then what happened?" Then I peed my pants... But how can I say this? "Then I started running and that monster kid was chasing me." After overcoming his embarrassment at the time, Leonard said with fear in his eyes: "The corridor outside our door seemed to be endlessly long, and her footsteps were getting closer and closer. I almost ran to death before I managed to run out from the other end. But after I left the corridor and fell down the stairs, it turned out that it was not our manor outside the door, but... that family's manor! Also, after I was driven out of the door by the monster, an execution was actually taking place under the big redwood tree outside the door! " "Execution?!" Seemingly attracted by Leonard's weird dream, secretary Mark's eyes flickered twice, his face expressionless, but his voice was full of shock as he asked: "Is it... the one against Bao... against that family six years ago?"
"It's that scene...but something's not right..." Leonard said hesitantly: "The place is that place, but...but the person being executed is...is..." "who is it?" "it's me……" After remembering the horrific scene he saw at that time, Leonard's lips trembled unconsciously and he said: "More than nine hundred of me were blindfolded and held there...and then one after another...one after another... And at the beginning, I was just looking down, looking at...me...I was pushed down by people, and then one after another...ah no! They were executed one after another! Ahhhh! ! ! " "Don't be anxious! Lord Leonard, please don't be anxious yet!" Seeing Leonard screaming unconsciously, the secretary quickly handed over another towel and comforted him: "It was just a dream, you don't have to worry about it... What happened next? What happened next?" "later……" Leonard, who was still in shock, took the new towel and wiped his face that was sweating again. Maybe it was because he had waited for a long time. Not only was this new towel not warm, it was even slightly clammy. But his hands and feet were so cold that he was tortured by nightmares. At this moment, he no longer cared whether the towel was cold or hot. Under the urging of the secretary's seemingly magical voice, he recounted with horror in his eyes: "Then the execution was over and that monster kid appeared on the street and started smiling at me, and I just... I ran back. What appeared this time was not Baohua Manor, but our Cuiyu Manor. The monster child slowly chased me and told me that as long as I jumped down and fished out her body, she would let me go..." "Did you jump?" "I...I jumped..." After remembering the bitingly cold lake water, Leonard shrank in his chair, trembling as he said: "I...I remember the original location very clearly, so I found it as soon as I jumped down, and then...then when I wanted to come up, the water plants at the bottom of the lake suddenly entangled me. Those wet and cold water plants seemed alive, wrapping around my ankles, wrapping around my hands, strangling my neck, and rubbing against my face wetly... I... I..." "You didn't come up, and drowned in the lake like that child, right?" "Yes..." "Is that so..." Secretary Mark pondered for a moment, then asked tentatively: "The reason you had such a dream is that the Baohua family treated you well, and you felt that you did something wrong back then? So... you feel guilty?" I... feel guilty?
Reynard was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head vigorously: "No! No! I'm not wrong! They only had that marriage because they needed the support of the Jinjuan family, and it was just a combination of interests. I haven't even seen that woman a few times! And that child is not... Damn it, Mark! What are you talking about?" "Sorry, I just want to help analyze the reason why you have these strange dreams. After all, you are really scared. ” After apologizing politely, the secretary reminded him in a gentle voice: “You look so sweaty, why don’t you wipe it off?” “Um…” After hearing Mark’s reminder, Leonard wiped his sweat with the towel in his hand, but for some reason, the more he wiped his face, the more sweat he got. The towel, which was originally a little warm, gradually became damp, cold and sticky, as if… It had just strangled his limbs, mouth and nose, and drowned him in the water plants in the lake! “Sorry, I was a little hasty in preparing just now, and the number of hot towels is not enough. I hope you don’t mind.” After apologizing to Leonard, whose face was pale and whose lips trembled again, the secretary “Mark” stood up and made way for the door leading to the corridor, then pointed to the little girl standing behind Leonard, and reminded him with a smile: “Just wipe it off first, after all…you should run again.” “Ah ...
