Chapter 2345: Horrible House, Sloppy Man...
"what?"
Ling Tian stared at Lin Rumo blankly, his mind feeling completely confused.
What the hell?
Wang Jie is not dead?!
He was stunned for a moment before he realized that it seemed as if Lin Zhongyan had deceived him?
Good God, I thought he was being loyal to me, but who knew that he actually deceived me in this matter?
And Lin Rumo said he had just met Wang Jie a few days ago, so...
Just as Ling Tian was puzzled, Lin Rumo asked curiously, "Why do you think he's dead? Where did you hear this news?"
Hearing this, Ling Tian came back to his senses and shook his head: "No, I might have remembered it wrongly. Then where is he? Can you take me to see him? I have something to talk to him about."
"No problem." Lin Rumo smiled slightly: "We can go now, then let's go directly."
After saying that, Lin Rumo took Ling Tian into the car and headed towards the so-called Wang Jie's residence.
On the way, Ling Tian looked at Lin Rumo, but in the end he did not tell her that it was Lin Zhongyan who told him the news of Wang Jie's death.
Although there doesn't seem to be such a deep father-daughter relationship between Lin Rumo and Lin Zhongyan.
But no matter what, we are family.
If Lin Rumo had asked Lin Zhongyan before taking her there, God knows what reason he would give to not let Lin Rumo take her there.
So in order to prevent some unexpected situations from happening, Ling Tian chose to keep quiet and meet with Wang Jie first.
After all, Ling Tian always felt that Wang Jie should have some understanding of the Wang family's situation, and his knowledge of monsters would probably exceed that of other families.
If this is true, then I will definitely know some secrets of the Wang family.
The car drove for about three hours and finally arrived at a dilapidated residential area.
The sign at the gate of the community is crumbling, as if it will fall down at any time.
The door was covered in rust, and most importantly, several pieces of the words on the sign had fallen off, leaving only a small, intact character visible.
Seeing the dire state of the neighborhood, Ling Tian frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "This guy named Wang Jie lives here? Didn't he make any money selling books?"
"I've made a profit." Lin Rumo smiled slightly. "But he said that he gets better inspiration here, so he lives in this community. You know what, it's really quiet here, and many people have moved away, so there's almost no noise."
Hearing this, Ling Tian looked around in confusion, then nodded and followed Lin Rumo in.
As the two walked into the community, Ling Tian discovered that there were indeed not many people around. Even among the warriors, there was only one warrior in the Spirit Transformation Realm.
After a brief perception, Lin Rumo took him to the innermost building, then stood in front of the door on the second floor and knocked.
Knock, knock, knock~ The sound of gentle knocks echoed throughout the corridor, and the door in front of him seemed like it would fall down at any time, shaking slowly in the rhythm of the knocks.
When Ling Tian was paying attention to the door, it suddenly opened and an extremely slovenly figure appeared in front of the two of them.
The moment he opened the door, a pungent stench hit him in the face, causing Ling Tian to frown.
The man standing in front of him had a long beard on his face that covered his chin, and his hair was loose, and the few strands of hair that were there were draped over his shoulders.
The most important thing is that the other person's beard and the dozen or so hairs are all silver-white, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes are clearly visible.
It seems that this is the so-called Wang Jie?
At the same time, when Wang Jie saw Lin Rumo, a hint of surprise flashed in his cloudy eyes and he asked, "Hey? Momo, why are you here?"
The moment Wang Jia opened his mouth to speak, the stench in the air became stronger, and his teeth, which were yellow and black, and there were only a few of them, made people want to vomit at first sight.
But even though this was such a sloppy man, Lin Rumo remained calm when he saw him. Instead, he smiled and said, "Yes, Uncle Wang, we came here yesterday as agreed. But today, I brought someone with me. He said he was curious about your book, so we came here."
After Lin Rumo finished speaking, Wang Jie looked at Ling Tian who was standing beside him.
He looked at Ling Tian, then nodded and turned around and said, "Come in. The house is a bit messy, don't mind."
Ling Tian and Lin Rumo looked at each other and just walked into the room, only then did they realize what this so-called mess was all about.
There were socks everywhere, thrown directly on the sofa and the dining table. There was a foul smell coming from the kitchen, and there were large black stains on the floor.
The most important thing is that the shoes piled up at the door, filled with black sewage, were just there.
Seeing this horrifying scene, even though Ling Tian had a strong psychological endurance, he couldn't help but want to cover his nose.
However, at this moment, Lin Rumo seemed to notice his movements, hurriedly reached out and held his hand, then shook his head.
Lin Rumo's strange reaction made Ling Tian confused for a moment, but he did not continue to think about covering his nose, but followed him in.
After Wang Jie walked in, he threw the socks on the sofa onto the balcony, then looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "Hey, sit down, I'll get you something to drink."
After saying that, he walked straight into the kitchen and made crackling sounds.
"You can't show your dislike, he cares about this very much!"
Lin Rumo lowered his voice and spoke close to Ling Tian's ear.
Hearing this, Ling Tian was helpless.
Good guy, if you are afraid of being disliked by others, don’t make it so dirty. I guess the trash can outside is cleaner than this room. Don’t you want others to dislike you?
Hey!
Thinking of his purpose, Ling Tian could only sigh and nodded obediently.
After a while, Wang Jie came out with two cups, and placed them in front of the two of them, saying with a smile: "Drink some water, there's nothing else to drink or eat at home, I'm sorry to bother you, I haven't been out much recently, hehe!"
After Wang Jie finished speaking, he showed his yellow teeth again, and Ling Tian looked at the two cups in front of him, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
Who would have thought that the cups they were poured water for also looked like they hadn't been washed?!
Ok!
Just as Ling Tian was thinking, Lin Rumo beside him raised his cup, took a sip, and then put it down.
Seeing her actions, Ling Tian thought he didn't need to drink, but Wang Jie looked at him with expectation in his eyes.
Hey!
Finish the calf!
Ling Tian shook his head helplessly. When he picked up the cup, a strange smell rushed directly into his nostrils.
After smelling the scent, Ling Tian suppressed the urge to feel nauseous, took a deep breath, and drank the water in one gulp.
After taking a sip, he suddenly put down the cup, looked at Wang Jie with surprise in his eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "This water...this..."
