Xiao Lan got up quickly when she heard the knock on the door. No longer wearing the dress that was troublesome to care for, he directly changed into the dress he wore when he entered the game, washed it casually, and left the room with Luo.
At the door, Xiao Lan found Luo had been staring at the door next to him. The room on his left was Luo and the one on his right was an unknown player.
"What's the matter?" Xiao Lan asked, looking towards the area Luo's eyes could reach.
Upon looking at it, I found that there was a grayish-white mark on the door, which was a bit large in size and irregular in shape. It was difficult to tell at a glance what was left behind.
Luo stretched out his hand and touched the mark, and a little white trace was left on his glove.
He said to Xiao Lan: "This is lead powder, which was used by women in the past when they put on makeup. It can make the skin tone pale in line with the aesthetics of the time."
"Such makeup is popular among the aristocracy. The aristocracy generally believes that only workers can have dark skin, and pale skin is a status symbol."
"Lead? Isn't that toxic?" Xiao Lan admired the courage of women in the past to pursue beauty.
Now that I know that this is used on the face, it is still liked by the nobles. Xiao Lan looked at the mark on the door again, and the more he looked at it, the more it felt like a face left on the door. Because the area was too large and the structure looked different from ordinary people, it didn’t happen at the first time. recognize.
In this manor, there is actually only one person with such a big face and distinctive structure.
In other words, after the players returned to the room, Mrs. Bella once came to the door of one of them and clung to the door to eavesdrop on the movement in the room, but the players didn't notice it.
This is so strange.
Mrs. Bella's footsteps are so heavy, how could it be possible that no one of the players could hear her if she appeared in the corridor. Does Mrs. Bella have a way to hide her footsteps, or is there something wrong with the players' rooms
"Luo, do you feel any unusual movement?" Xiao Lan asked.
Luo shook his head: "No, everything in my room is normal."
He stayed in Xiao Lan's room all the time, and indeed nothing wrong happened in it. As for the others, he didn't care about it.
Since there was no clue right now, Xiao Lan had to knock on the player's door and told him what happened at his door in the lingering eyes of the other player.
As for whether the player will have insomnia, it is not his responsibility.
After that, Xiao Lan planned to find the direction of the kitchen first, and could find the best food for the servants. If it didn't work, she would look for the stocked ingredients. These basic ingredients won't be dealt with by Mrs. Bella.
Xiao Lan and Luo slowly descended to the first floor avoiding the night maid. They searched the first floor and finally found the location of the suspected kitchen.
However, as they approached the kitchen, singing came from the closed kitchen door.
It's a love song that tells the love for your sweetheart.
The singing is melodious, the tune is tactfully, and the person who sings has a nice voice, conscientiously speaking, this song does sound very beautiful.
Accompanied by the collision of the kitchen utensils inside, one can imagine a woman who is good at singing is preparing meals for her beloved, it should be a warm picture.
However, Xiao Lan recognized this voice. It was Mrs. Bella.
The current situation is that Mrs. Bella is singing in the kitchen while doing her dark cooking career, looking very happy.
Xiao Lan on the other side is not so happy, madam, is your enthusiasm for dark cooking a little too high? Can't even waste time in bed
Through the crack in the door, Mrs. Bella's broad shadow is faintly visible. It seems that the plan to visit the kitchen at night tonight can only be temporarily shelved.
After changing directions, they began to look for the location of the warehouse.
The location of the warehouse was not hidden, and the door was very conspicuous. Although there were locks on the door, this old-fashioned lock was not difficult for Xiao Lan. They entered the warehouse in a few seconds.
Luckily, this warehouse happens to store ingredients.
Two figures appeared along with the food, Wang Taidi and Wang Ke. The two of them were squatting together, motionless around something that looked like a pot, and they turned back together after hearing the sound of opening the door.
"Xiao Lan! Filo!" The expression on Wang Teddy's face was like seeing a savior. He put down the suspicious-looking black object in his hand and waved to the two of them.
Wang Ke also turned his head and nodded at them as a greeting.
Xiao Lan greeted them, and at the same time was a little confused, what is this
When he approached him, he realized that there were more than one pots in front of the two Wang Teddy brothers. Four or five identical pots were tilted upside down, and they were filled with dark and unidentified objects.
It looks like a tragic rollover scene.
Wang Taidi's eyes flashed with hope: "Xiao Lan, do you know how to cook?"
Under Wang Taidi's ardent anticipation, Xiao Lan took over the task of cooking. Only then did he know that these seemingly identical pots are actually props, and their only function is to cook without fire, but the final product depends entirely on the level of the cook.
Watching Xiao Lan skillfully cut the ingredients and throw them into the pot, Wang Taidi was relieved.
His elder brother’s cooking level was a childhood nightmare. He didn’t expect that after entering the game, his elder brother’s cooking evolved because of the strange ingredients, and it could be called an alchemist’s experiment.
While he was cooking, Xiao Lan casually chatted with him: "How did you get in? I just saw that the door was locked without a trace."
Wang Teddy pointed to the window in the upper part of the warehouse: "I came in with the window removed."
Xiao Lan looked up and saw that a piece of glass was forcibly removed from the window high above the ground, and the wind was showing miserably, and suddenly he had a new understanding of Wang Ke's style of work.
Xiao Lan was a little curious: "Will you receive a system prompt when you open the window?"
Wang Teddy thought for a while: "Are you saying to increase the boss's attention to that? This level of damage is actually quite safe, especially if the manor is so big, it may take several floors to get the attention of Mrs. Bella."
There is no mention of the poverty value. It seems that Xiao Lan is the only one who will be notified of the poverty value. It seems that other players will not become poor by destroying the props.
"What do you think the game prompts this time mean? It doesn't seem like we really want us to seduce Mrs. Bella." Xiao Lan suddenly thought of this.
Wang Teddy stared at the pot without blinking his eyes and said: "Boss prompts are sometimes traps. The less bosses that can give you clear prompts in the later stage, you need to determine according to the clues when you don't give clear prompts."
Xiao Lan nodded thoughtfully.
It didn't take long for Xiao Lan's dishes to be prepared. He divided the dishes into the bowls that Wang Ke had brought, and he ate them.
Looking at the mush in the bowl, Wang Teddy fell into thinking and doubts about life and the universe. What just happened? Is there any difference between this and what Mrs. Bella did? If you can't hide on the first day of the new year, you can't hide on the fifteenth.
No, no, how can you be so superficial? You can’t just look at food when you eat. Maybe it’s super delicious? Wang Teddy plucked up the courage to scoop a spoonful of unidentified objects in the bowl and put it in his mouth.
Three seconds later, Wang Teddy's eyes straightened, and he suddenly felt that Mrs. Bella's dinner was not so terrible.
Poverty exercised Xiao Lan's ability to survive, but obviously failed to light up his cooking skills, and perhaps even took away his sense of taste.
Wang Ke ate the noodles at a fast speed without changing the color, but the hand holding the bowl was so hard that blue veins appeared.
Only Luo gracefully finished his bowl, and smiled at Xiao Lan and said, "It's delicious."
Human food is really very special. It can become this kind of completely unrelated to raw materials after simple cooking. Mr. Luo, who ate human food for the first time, thought so.
Then, he got the admiration of the other two eyes.
Dude, he is a ruthless man!
After eating this imaginative dinner, the four left the warehouse.
Because of the early sleep, Xiao Lan didn't feel sleepy now, so he, Luo and the Wang brothers, the four of them moved on in the manor.
It was late at night, and the entire manor was quietly plunged into silence, except for the occasional figure of a maid walking by with a candlestick in the corridor.
A room with a faint light attracted their attention.
After approaching, they found that in the room was the serious-looking butler who had received the player before. The butler was still meticulously dressed, and the bun on her head showed no signs of messiness.
The housekeeper seemed to be studying something, lying on the table carefully writing and drawing, but there was only a faint candlelight in the room, and they were far apart and couldn't see what was inside.
The identity of the housekeeper is very important to the manor, and what she is writing may be a key clue.
Xiao Lan whispered: "Luo...Feiluo, can your skills detect what the butler is writing?"
He almost forgot the pseudonym that Luo used when facing the player.
Luo Lima understood Xiao Lan's meaning, and he nodded, "Yes."
He stretched out his black gloved hand and gently pressed it against the wall. A black shadow that the Wang brothers could not see spread towards the room, gradually covering the writing in front of the housekeeper, and then quickly retracted it after a while.
During the whole process, the housekeeper didn't notice, she even took time to drink a cup of coffee.
"It's the drawing of the manor." Luo said, "it seems to be about to be renovated here."
Xiao Lan: "Is there anything unusual in it?"
Luo recalled: "There was a room that was crossed. It should be a very good room in terms of size and location. It might have belonged to a person with a higher status."
Xiao Lan: "Such a large manor usually lives in a whole family. But there is only Mrs. Bella as the owner, which seems strange. Could there be many people living here, and the room originally had an owner? "
Wang Teddy raised his hand: "I think it's very likely, and have you discovered that not only there is no other master, but there is not even a male servant."
The servants... Maybe they are by your side. Xiao Lan remembered the maid who was seen in the cloakroom who was suspicious of Adam's apple.
Xiao Lan turned around and asked Luo: "Can you redraw what you just saw?"
Luo nodded: "No problem."
Several people quietly returned to the floor where the player was, and they entered Luo's room.
Luo found the paper and pen, lit the candlestick on the table, and drew the drawing he had just seen one by one.
Wang Teddy gave a thumbs up: "Feeluo, you are amazing!"
Luo smiled: "It's nothing, it's just related to my skills."
He deliberately did not elaborate, only classifying his abilities as skills. Wang Teddy will not ask, after all, for players, skills are related to their own net worth and lives, and most people don't want to be known, except for the self-reporting Wang Teddy.
Xiao Lan offered to go to the room and check it out.
Wang Teddy nodded in agreement.
Wang Ke watched them silently throughout the entire process and didn't interfere with his brother's game choices. He was like a leader who was watching him grow and only planning to take action when it was critical.
According to the guidelines of the drawings, several people came to a corridor.
There is only one gorgeous wall in the place where the room is on the drawing, but the location of this wall is really strange. The corridor is narrowed out of thin air, and the pattern is very strange.
Xiao Lan stretched out her hand to buckle the wall, and what came out of her hand was a solid wall feel, but the wall was not thick if judging from the sound. It seems that this room is still sealed with masonry, which is troublesome.
Originally, Xiao Lan thought that the room was just locked, and he could easily unlock the door and enter. But for bricks and stones, this wall must be destroyed. This will make a loud noise. Unless the entire manor is deaf, they will not sneak into it quietly.
Seeing Xiao Lan frowned, Wang Teddy asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Lan said: "The sound of destroying this wall is too loud, and it is estimated that it will disturb many people."
Wang Teddy breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words: "It's okay, it's up to me."
After that, he closed his eyes and looked in his storage props. After a while, a pot-like prop appeared in Wang Teddy's hand. He said to Xiao Lan: "This should be fine, Silent. When it grows up, the sound in the area covered by it will be completely isolated."
Wang Teddy placed Silentia on the wall and tapped the flower pot lightly. The transparent light green vine tremble instantly, growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, climbing on the wall, and finally breaking through the wall. The restriction grows into the air.
After a while, the space Xiao Lan and the others were in was already surrounded by it, like a transparent cocoon. A leaf gently swept across the back of Xiao Lan's hand, but it didn't bring any touch.
Seeing Xiao Lan looking at Wu Yin Luo, Wang Teddy explained: "This is a plant with no physical body. It only has the function of sound insulation. It is a very common prop in a mid-level field."
Thinking of the storage space that she had nothing but envelopes and Reverse Chronicles, Xiao Lan felt a gap between free players and Krypton players.
Wang Ke stepped forward, a blood-red long knife appeared in his hand, facing the wall, he posed a slashing posture.
"Wait." Xiao Lan hurriedly stopped him, "I'll come on, I can penetrate the wall."
Demolish the wall! This is a good opportunity to get the poverty value rightfully!
Thinking of the experience of getting poverty points by removing a brick in the last dungeon, and then looking at this gorgeous and alluring wall, Xiao Lan's heart was hot.
Wang Ke put away the knife without saying a word, and walked aside.
Seeing Wang Teddy still standing by the wall, Xiao Lan raised his hand to signal: "Teddy, you go a little farther, the wall penetration technique is more powerful."
"Oh oh." Wang Taidi ran behind his brother with small broken steps, waiting to see through the wall technique.
Xiao Lan stepped back, sprinted and accelerated, then jumped up and kicked towards the wall.
"Boom—"
The wall collapsed, revealing the delicate wooden door inside.
Wang Teddy hiding behind his brother: "..."
It's still a damn physical skill...
