Chapter 38: Cinema
After eating, Lü Yang picked up the Eerie Computer again. He searched online and found that there really was a Fuqiang Flour Mill in Lutou Town. The flour mill had developed quite well over the past two years, with its flour and noodle products even being sold in Guishe City.
It seemed that as long as he found the Fuqiang Flour Mill in Lutou Town, he could find the murderer Li Fuqiang.
As for how to get the recorded mobile phone and the IOU from Li Fuqiang after finding him, Lü Yang hadn’t thought it through yet. Then he browsed some more information online. Soon, his eyelids began to feel heavy. Lü Yang opened his mouth and yawned several times, and his head felt even more dizzy.
Forget it. He was too tired today and didn’t want to think too much. He could deal with everything tomorrow.
Sleep.
…
The next morning, after eating at a breakfast stall outside the Residential Area, Lü Yang headed toward the Qingyuan Residential Area. After experiencing the terrifying Mysterious Domain last night, the closer Lü Yang got to the Qingyuan Residential Area, the more he felt a creepy sensation.
But everything in the Qingyuan Residential Area was normal. There was no black mist outside the Residential Area. The residents were either going to work or exercising, creating a peaceful and busy atmosphere.
After going upstairs, Sister Mei was already in the Duplex Apartment. She was standing on the balcony, anxiously talking on her Mobile Phone.
“Good, it still hasn’t rained.” After seeing Sister Mei finish her call, Lü Yang walked over and said to her.
“Yes, I was worried all night.” Sister Mei replied to Lü Yang, with nothing unusual in her expression.
Remembering the scene of their passionate kiss last night, Lü Yang couldn’t help feeling a bit regretful inside… But he thought it was better this way, because he had no intention of developing a relationship with Sister Mei. If he had really done those things with her, making her have expectations of him, it would have been too unfair to her.
Was everything last night a dream? It seemed that the arrival of the Apocalypse could indeed make a person do things they normally wouldn’t and release desires they originally didn’t dare to.
Knowing that Sister Mei, the person he often fantasized about while masturbating, actually had some “unhealthy” thoughts about him too, Lü Yang felt slightly proud, as if he had learned mind-reading.
…
“Haven’t they arrived yet?” Lü Yang really wanted to know how those Porters were doing, and whether they had been Erased from this world.
“The landlady said she contacted them. They will be here soon.”
While the two were talking on the balcony, two tricycles rode over and stopped at the entrance of the Apartment Building. Five Porters got off, picked up Iron Shovels, and started working busily by the sand pile at the entrance of the Apartment Building.
When the five Porters carried the sand upstairs, Lü Yang quickly recognized that these five Porters were not the same ones from last night! The five Porters from last night, like Yi Yi, had been mysteriously Erased from the world by the Mysterious Domain.
But these five Porters, like the ones last night, seemed to have a strong dislike for Lü Yang. They kept pointing at the walls, saying that Lü Yang’s electrical work was terrible. Sister Mei watched Lü Yang worriedly, afraid that he would get upset and argue with the Porters after being criticized. But unexpectedly, Lü Yang didn’t mind the accusations at all, maintaining a calm and indifferent expression.
From Sister Mei’s reaction, it seemed she had no idea that the five Porters had been replaced. It appeared that when the Mysterious Domain Eliminated certain people or things, it did so thoroughly. Except for Lü Yang, the owner of this Eerie Computer, everyone else had their related memories wiped out as well.
…
Everything went very smoothly today. In just over half an hour, the five Porters had carried all three tons of sand upstairs.
After the five Porters finished their work and went downstairs, Lü Yang stopped what he was doing and told Sister Mei that he needed to leave for a few days.
“You’re going back to visit your Maternal Grandmother’s grave? Well… alright…” Sister Mei was anxious about the renovation and obviously didn’t want Lü Yang to leave these days, but visiting a grave was something she couldn’t really stop him from doing.
“Don’t worry, I’ll come back as soon as possible.” Lü Yang wouldn’t mention her husband’s murder to Sister Mei now. He needed to get some evidence in Lutou Town first.
By then, if he helped Sister Mei get back the twenty million that belonged to her, she wouldn’t have to be so frugal in the future. She wouldn’t need Lü Yang to work on the house renovation herself; she could find a proper renovation company to design and luxury decorate it properly.
“Do you have enough money? I only have two hundred on me. Let me go back and get a card to withdraw some more for you.” Sister Mei said to Lü Yang.
“I withdrew a thousand on my way here. It’s enough.” Lü Yang waved his hand at Sister Mei.
“Let me take you to the bus station.”
“No need.”
“I have nothing to do anyway. I’ll just take a walk.”
Without waiting for his reply, Sister Mei went out with Lü Yang. She even bought a lot of snacks and food at a Supermarket near the Residential Area and insisted on giving them to Lü Yang.
Although Lü Yang guessed that he and Sister Mei probably didn’t have a passionate story like a kiss after dinner last night, he felt that Sister Mei’s current closeness to him had increased by a level compared to before.
Along the way, Lü Yang sometimes secretly looked at Sister Mei’s pretty face and red lips, feeling a bit regretful. If only… if only she remembered everything that happened in the Mysterious Domain, then he could often kiss her passionately and feel her soft, sweet, and smooth little tongue.
But…
Oh well… Ahhh…
He got hard.
…
An hour later, the tour bus Lü Yang was on left the urban area of Guishe City and entered the Guicang Expressway. It was a long journey of several hundred kilometers. Lutou Town was about twenty-something kilometers away from the expressway. Lü Yang would get off at a Gas Station service area near Lutou Town on the Guicang Expressway, then take a small path behind the Gas Station service area to transfer to another vehicle.
Sitting bored on the tour bus, Lü Yang closed his eyes to rest. He brought up the screen of the Eerie Computer and subconsciously opened a webpage. Surprisingly, the Eerie Computer actually had a network signal!
Damn! Whose Wi-Fi is it using? Will it incur charges?
It couldn’t charge anything; there was no linked account.
Lü Yang was quite happy about this. Although the Eerie Computer was annoying, it was indeed a very powerful computer. He could save on monthly internet fees in the future.
After some research with his eyes closed, Lü Yang quickly discovered other new functions of the Eerie Computer after he became a Junior Paranormal Master. For example, the screen that appeared in his vision was originally about half a meter in front of him, but Lü Yang could move it closer or farther away as he wished. He could also make the screen size larger or smaller.
When the screen size was enlarged to the maximum, it was like entering an IMAX cinema. Everything inside became extremely huge and very impressive.
Lü Yang found a high-definition movie website and tried to play a movie. Then the Eerie Computer popped up a message saying it had automatically found the original copy of the movie in the Mysterious Domain film library, and asked Lü Yang if he wanted to play the original copy from the Mysterious Domain database.
Lü Yang, of course, chose the high-definition version of the original copy.
The movie was very clear, no different from the playback effect in an IMAX cinema. Not only that, the multi-channel sound effects were even more impressive than in the cinema, making Lü Yang feel as if he was in a high-end theater. Even some 3D scenes in the movies could be perfectly experienced without wearing glasses.
