Survival on the road, I have a prompt system

Chapter 464 Clues in the study
Zhang Tuohai sat on the sofa bored.

There is no mobile phone to play with, no one to chat with, not even melon seeds, which makes him extremely bored.

From time to time, he looked at the huge grandfather clock not far away. It had been half an hour, and all the people who had left had left without looking back. No one came back.

"Could these people have discovered something and went to explore it by themselves?"

Zhang Tuohai felt a little panicked.

[You can try to go to the study to get further clues. 】

The prompt system prompts.

"That's right, I haven't restricted my activities anyway, I can also look for clues."

Zhang Tuohai stood up and asked the housekeeper who had been standing beside him, "Excuse me, when will the second test start?"

"When it's time to start, it will start naturally."

The butler said with a blank face.

If it wasn't for not wearing an exoskeleton, Zhang Tuohai would definitely beat this guy up.

The Riddler is the worst thing.

"Okay, so can I move freely now?"

Zhang Tuohai asked tentatively.

"Of course, you are one of the succession candidates in the will, and you are not a prisoner. We will not restrict your personal behavior."

"As long as you don't break the rules."

The butler said lightly.

"Okay, where is the study, I want to go and see."

Zhang Tuohai said.

Hearing Zhang Tuohai's words, the housekeeper was slightly taken aback, and then said: "Second floor, on the left, the second door."

"Thank you."

Zhang Tuohai walked towards the second floor.

Stepping on the thick carpet to the second floor, Zhang Tuohai pushed open a wooden door according to the guidance of the housekeeper.

The place where the eye can see is a huge study.

Facing it is a huge floor-to-ceiling window, which floods the ground with sunlight.

There is also a huge desk in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, on which are some stationery such as pens and ink, but there is no half a piece of paper.

Zhang Tuohai looked around.

On both sides are full-wall bookshelves, and a small ladder is placed in the corner for human consumption.

Zhang Tuohai walked in, scanning the books on the bookshelves on both sides.

The bookshelf on the left is full of exquisite hard-shelled tomes, neatly arranged in rows, which look very stylish and full of decorative effects.

The bookshelf on the right is full of various miscellaneous books and periodicals, from "Ali Buda" to "Treatment of Common Diseases of Bamboo Rats and 32 Methods", covering almost all categories that Zhang Tuohai can think of.

Zhang Tuohai even saw a few sensual novels grandly placed in the center.

"With so many books, how do I find clues?"

Looking at the densely packed books, Zhang Tuohai felt a little dizzy. With so many books, it would probably take a lot of time just to read the titles of the books, not to mention looking for clues from them.

[It is recommended to browse through the second shelf on the left, the second shelf, the first book. 】

The prompt system popped up a prompt again.

Zhang Tuohai's eyes lit up, and he walked over immediately. According to the prompt of the game system, Zhang Tuohai found the book.

The title of the book is very simple, it is called "Red Maple Manor".

Zhang Tuohai took out the book, came to the desk and sat down, flipping through the pages one by one.

Zhang Tuohai discovered that this was a brief history of the manor and its residents.

According to the records in the book, the manor was built 30 years ago by the Earl of Windsor himself.

The Earl of Windsor had a son and a daughter. The son was named Jason. He was the best at eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. After being drunk, he suffered an accidental cardiac arrest and died suddenly in the public bathroom of the servants on the second floor.

Daughter Ivanka is obsessed with medicine, especially human anatomy. According to rumors, Ivanka has been researching skin replacement experiments before her death.

As a result, due to overwork and misoperation, the laboratory caught fire. When the flames were extinguished, only her charred body was found.

The Earl of Windsor was so sad that he fell seriously ill.

After recovering from the illness, the Earl of Windsor converted the laboratory into a family infirmary, and said that he had obtained an oracle to donate the family property to someone who was destined, but he had to pass his test.

The story ends here, and the follow-up is blank.

"What is this scenario?"

After reading the contents of the book, Zhang Tuohai looked confused.

Only three characters are mentioned in the book, the old Earl of Windsor, son Jason and daughter Ivanka.

However, both Jason and Ivanka are dead, and the old Earl of Windsor is also dead, otherwise it would be impossible to leave a will.

But what about the clues?
Three dead people?

What kind of clue is this?
Not a word about those bullshit tests and what follows.

Zhang Tuohai had a headache.

However, since the prompt system said that there are clues, there must be clues.

Zhang Tuohai kept flipping through the books, reading word by word, trying to find useful information from them.

However, after several times of checking by Zhang Tuohai, the content inside is indeed so much.

Just when Zhang Tuohai felt disheartened, he suddenly thought of something.

He opened the book again and found the parts that he was more concerned about.

Jason died in the public bathroom of the servants on the second floor, while Ivanka died in the original laboratory, now the family clinic.

If we infer according to the ghost novels, then there must be something dirty in these two places, and there will be resentful souls of the dead entangled there.

"However, the world I live in should be scientific, right?" Zhang Tuohai thought secretly.

However, when he thought of the talking fox, the black technology that can use the mysterious origin stone to renew his life, and all kinds of weird clockwork techniques, he was not sure.

"In short, I'd rather believe it than believe it. It's better to keep these two places as far away as possible."

Zhang Tuohai thought secretly.

After flipping through the books again, Zhang Tuohai stood up, ready to look around the room and find some clues, when there was a knock on the door.

Zhang Tuohai hurriedly inserted "Red Maple Manor" back and replaced it with "How to Make a Useless Mechanical Device".

After confirming that there were no mistakes, Zhang Tuohai coughed lightly: "Please come in."

It was the maid who appeared at the door.

"Mr. Steward invites you to participate in the second game project."

said the maid.

"Thank you, I'll go down now."

Zhang Tuohai followed the maid downstairs.

At this time, Garrison, A Zhai and Tuanfan Girl had already gathered in the hall.

However, Ah Zhai and Garrison seemed to be very familiar with each other as they talked and laughed happily.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Tuohai was shocked. When did the two of them become so familiar?

Formed an alliance?
However, if an alliance is formed, shouldn't it be quietly?

What are they doing so obviously?
Zhang Tuohai turned his mind and walked down the stairs slowly.

At this time, the housekeeper came over with a tray.

The tray contained a Colt python, three bullets, and a dice.

The butler threw out the magazine of the Colt python, loaded three bullets in the order of 1 empty and 23, and then quickly turned the wheel to close the magazine.

"This game is very simple. According to the order of the dice, each person takes a pistol and shoots himself in the head. Those who survive will enter the next round, and those who die will automatically be out."

The housekeeper said and handed the dice to Zhang Tuohai: "You are the last one to appear, so you should cast the dice first."
