"You..." The housekeeper who was stepped on the floor just spit out two words with difficulty, but didn't want Wang Ke to increase the strength of her feet again and stepped back on her words.
This is simply a brutal and inhumane picture. The lady living alone was attacked by an unexpected visitor late at night, and none of the onlookers offered a helping hand. Was it the degeneration of human nature or the indifference of society.
It is a pity that the group of clubs in front of her has no sympathy for her situation.
"If you have any questions, just ask." Wang Ke seemed to be a bullying bully in the legend. He waved to the door with a blank face and signaled Xiao Lan to come in.
Wang Teddy looked at the housekeeper who could no longer maintain his original rigidity on the ground. He squatted down and asked, "What will happen tomorrow night?"
The housekeeper just glared at him severely, but her mouth was closed tightly, completely ignoring Wang Teddy's question.
Upon seeing this, Wang Ke gave her another foot, but the housekeeper groaned but still did not speak, and looked very hardened.
Wang Ke frowned.
Suddenly, the blood-red long knife that he had seen before appeared in his hand. Han Guang Zhanzhan's sword light appeared in front of her at the moment when the housekeeper was unsuspecting, and the tip of the knife was only a few millimeters away from her eyeball. She already felt the cold texture of the weapon, and a painful sensation faintly gave birth to her skin.
The housekeeper took a deep breath. She never thought that these guys would dare to be so presumptuous, wouldn't they be afraid of being blamed by Mrs. Bella
The housekeeper tried to calm down: "Tomorrow... an important event will be held in the manor."
But it completely avoids the point that players want to know.
Wang Ke gently turned the tip of the knife: "I can give you another chance."
This slight change was extremely obvious in the eyes of the housekeeper. She trembled all over and tried to restrain it. She didn't want to put her eyes on the tip of the knife because of her mistake.
After a moment of entanglement between Mrs. Bella’s punishment and the murderer who seemed to be ready to do it right away, the butler said with difficulty: "Tomorrow is the night of the full moon, then... Madam..."
She hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Wang Ke, who was stepping on her expressionlessly, and continued: "Madam will start the sacrifice ceremony and she will preside over it personally. The sacrifice is... her suitors."
That is the role of the players.
Xiao Lan asked, "If she invites men to the manor just to make sacrifices, would there be such a thing every month?"
"Yes..." The housekeeper sighed. Once she starts, it is not difficult to continue. "The lady invited many men to the manor to confirm the most important sacrifice. She will choose one of you. The best, as the last and most precious sacrifice."
Xiao Lan asked, "Who is the object of sacrifice?"
"I don't know." The steward said with difficulty, "Apart from the lady and the sacrifice, no one else was present at the time of the sacrifice. We were never allowed to know the details of the sacrifice ceremony."
"She didn't lie." Wang Teddy shook his hand with the green polygraph props and said.
Xiao Lan continued to ask questions she was interested in: "Do you know Annie?"
The housekeeper said: "She is Mrs. Bella's sister, but I haven't seen her. She passed away before I entered the manor to work."
Xiao Lan: "How long have you been in the manor."
The housekeeper replied: "Thirty years."
Xiao Lan: "Are there any people older than you here?"
Housekeeper: "No, when I came to the manor, there was no servant here. Later servants came in and worked under my arrangement."
"Then do you know about Mrs. Bella's husband?" Xiao Lan asked.
The housekeeper replied in desperation: "I know, Madam used to have a husband. He was called Edmund. He disappeared more than 20 years ago. Before he disappeared, he often stayed in the piano room all day and never came out. Meet me, madam."
Xiao Lan: "Have you seen other people in this family?"
Housekeeper: "No, since I came here, there has been only Mrs. Bella."
It seems that the most likely person who knew the truth back then was the unaccounted husband. Other servants who might have known the truth were either sacrificed or later dealt with by Mrs. Bella.
The key to leaving the manor is probably this Edmund.
Xiao Lan stood up: "The last question, where is the piano room."
The housekeeper was almost numb by stepping on: "The third floor, the farthest room on the east side, is now sealed."
Seeing that Xiao Lan had finished asking the question, Wang Ke moved his foot away and gave Wang Teddy a look.
Wang Teddy understood in seconds and took out a long conch-shaped prop. He tapped on the prop, and the housekeeper's voice came from inside: "Tomorrow is the night of the full moon, then... Madam..."
The eyes of the housekeeper suddenly widened: "This, this... you guys!!!"
Wang Teddy shook the conch in his hand: "Happy cooperation, ma'am. You don't want to know what Madam Bella's expression will be after hearing this, right?"
The housekeeper trembled, "I don't know how to speak or speak out."
She just sat on the ground and watched these unreasonable bastards walk away, and even the smiling, handsome, and most polite guy walked along all the floor plans of the manor on her desk.
It's simply not good to look at it.
Several people left the housekeeper's room and headed towards the piano room. In order to be safe, Luo also took out the floor plan of the manor that he had just obtained from the housekeeper for comparison, and they passed after confirming that they were correct.
Now that Mrs. Bella’s purpose is clear, and Mrs. Bella is not in the manor yet, the players no longer have to continue to behave normally in front of the maids, anyway, tomorrow night everyone will be tearing their faces.
Of course, it is better not to be seen.
Xiao Lan raised her hand and stunned a maid who was standing in the corner.
Wang Teddy's face was awkward: "Did you just say that it is better for us to sneak in secretly?"
Xiao Lan dragged the maid to an inconspicuous position and hid it: "Isn't it a perfect stealth to get rid of everyone you see? This is called physical invisibility."
Wang Teddy: "..."
With this kind of crude infiltration method, I think you are better than blue.
He turned his head and asked Luo: "You... don't you have any objections?"
Luo showed a gentle and elegant smile, and replied: "Huh? Is there any question?"
Wang Taidisheng's irresistible expression: "No... It's good, as good as my brother."
When we arrived at the original piano room, it was a gorgeous wall as expected. Several people opened the door again and entered it in the same way as before.
The piano room was as dusty as Annie's room.
It seems that both rooms have been closed for a long time. I am afraid it was closed shortly after the disappearance of Mr. Edmund.
The piano room is still gorgeous.
There are beautiful and original crystal lamps hanging on the ceiling, and the exquisite handwork of the time can be vaguely seen on the dusty carpet. The exquisitely crafted piano is placed in the middle of the piano room. There is a huge floor-to-ceiling window directly opposite the piano. Although it is now blocked by heavy curtains, it was sure to allow the piano player to enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the window as soon as he raised his head.
There is also a sofa and a clock not far away, and there is a beautiful vase on the table with a large bouquet of roses that have withered for a long time.
This is supposed to be a piano room that makes players feel happy and comfortable.
Wang Teddy looked at the piano excitedly and said: "According to my previous experience when playing games at home, this kind of piano usually appears in puzzle games. As long as you play as required, you can definitely get clues."
Xiao Lan was puzzled: "This is illogical."
Wang Teddy shrugged: "As long as it fits the logic of the game, we can search around, maybe we can find some scores or notes with passwords written on them."
As a pauper who didn't have time to play games, Xiao Lan couldn't understand Wang Teddy's excitement.
But he still searched around. After all, whether he needed to play the piano or not, he wanted to search the room anyway.
After a while, Luo came over with a yellow and brittle sheet of paper in his fingertips. He handed it to the others: "Look at this."
Xiao Lan looked at this fragile piece of paper and found that it was really a musical score, or a handwritten staff.
Wang Teddy jumped up with joy: "Look! My game is not for nothing, hahahahahahahahaha."
"Look at me." He stretched out his hand to take the stave and rushed to the piano excitedly, ignoring the ash on the piano bench, sat down, opened the piano cover, and started to adjust the piano.
This piano should have been very expensive, and after more than 20 years of closure, it can barely be played, but the sound quality is definitely not as good as it was in the past.
Afterwards, Wang Teddy watched the score and played it, I have to say that the posture looked pretty standard.
It's just... Although Wang Teddy's keys are all pressed correctly, is it a bit of an insult to the composer to call this thing a piano? Xiao Lan is sure that this is definitely not the result of an aging piano.
As expected, nothing in the room has changed.
Wang Teddy scratched his head: "There must be something wrong."
Wang Ke opened the mouth of his silly brother: "How did you mix up your piano lessons when you were a kid, have you forgotten?"
Wang Teddy: "..."
At this time, Wang Teddy suddenly understood that his brother wanted to kill his family righteously every day.
Life is not easy, Teddy sighed.
Wang Teddy looked at his brother and changed the subject: "Brother, do you know someone who can play?"
Wang Ke looked at the piano with a bitter expression on his face, as if he was about to drew a knife and chopped it down: "Qining can play, but when that guy enters the game, he can't find a figure."
Xiao Lan thought: "I always feel that playing the piano may not be a necessary way to get clues. If all the players who come in this game can't play the piano, wouldn't it be wiped out?"
"That's right..." The small flame of the puzzle-solving game in Wang Teddy's heart went out with a snort.
Several people continued to search for clues in the room.
When Xiao Lan inspected the one-person clock in the room, he found that something seemed to be inside. He stretched out his hand and opened the glass of the clock.
There is a portrait quietly placed inside the clock, and even because of the protection of the clock, there is no dust on the screen.
Xiao Lan took out the portrait, on which was a handsome blond man with ocean-like blue eyes, dressed in a decent dress, and his hair was meticulously combed, with an aristocratic grace and restraint between his gestures.
On the back of the portrait is written-Edmund.
This is actually Mrs. Bella's husband!
Wang Teddy pointed to the portrait: "Did this buddy owe a foreign debt of 50 billion yuan and was packaged and sold by the creditor!!"
Xiao Lan looked longing: "I really want to know how he did it."
Wang Teddy was shocked: "You want to marry this kind of..."
Xiao Lan said seriously: "No, I want to owe 50 billion."
Wang Teddy: "???"
What otherworldly dream is this
