After the meal, Kazumi did not delay and began to understand the situation in more detail.

"For example, how many people were sick? When and where did the accident happen? Did you see anything before the accident?"

Faced with a barrage of questions from Harmony, the middle-aged man felt much more relieved.

Collect intelligence first and then formulate a plan. This kind of behavior can at least prove that the other party is not a reckless fool.

Calling the old housekeeper to help them reminisce, the middle-aged man slowly answered Kazumi's questions.

"So far, a total of four people have fallen ill, three servants, and one is my youngest son, Azhi."

"Except for Azhi who is still sleeping, the other three have no problem speaking after the treatment and rest. If necessary, I can accompany you to meet them now."

"Then let's walk and talk!" Hemei did not reject the middle-aged man's proposal. After understanding the situation, she planned to find the person involved to actually compare it to see if there was any missing information.

Walking on the stairs illuminated by candlelight, the middle-aged man continued his unfinished answer.

"In the beginning, things happened in the area where the servants lived."

"In addition to the continuous appearance of people, considering the panic of the servants, I asked them all to move to the main castle and sealed off their original residences."

Having said this, the middle-aged man showed an annoyed look on his face, "Unexpectedly, because of this order, Azhi had an accident!"

"If you can, I hope you can get everything done tonight, I don't want to see anyone get into trouble again!"

Maybe you are afraid that something will happen to you?

Kazumi cursed in her heart, but on the surface she replied seriously, "This is what I hope too, so what was the time of their accident? Was it the same time period?"

"It's hard to confirm the specific time, because except for one person who got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and collapsed in the corridor, the other three people were unknowingly injured in their sleep, including my son."

"Are you sure it's only at night?" Kazumi frowned and formally stepped into the corridor on the third floor of the castle.

The servants in the castle are now all living together on this floor. Four people live in one room. Although it is a bit crowded, it can at least bring some sense of security to each other.

The three servants who had the accident were also among them, and were being looked after by their companions.

The old butler took the lead and walked into the room where the servant who had the accident first was. Several servants who were chatting hurriedly stood up and said hello to the silent middle-aged man.

Lichuan, who was at the back, noticed that a young man in light clothes, about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a weak complexion, was lying on the bed, and he was struggling to get up.

Now that the servants' respectful attitude was displayed, the middle-aged man didn't mind expressing his gentle side. He stretched out his hand to signal the other person to lie down and said with a smile, "You haven't recovered yet, so lie down well. This is the one I invited." As a professional, I will ask you a few questions next, and I believe she won’t mind you answering them while lying down.”

Nodding, Kazumi came to the bedside without sitting down. After introducing herself, she repeatedly asked some questions that she had already roughly understood from the middle-aged man.

Knowing that the other person was the one who went to the bathroom in the middle of the night and was the only one who was attacked while awake, Kazumi asked expectantly, "So, did you see or hear anything when the incident happened? "

The young man known as Asheng shook his head, "I just got up in a daze and went to the toilet. On the way back to the room, I suddenly felt very weak. When I tried to move around again, my feet gave way and I fell on my head. On the ground, the whole person fainted..."

After receiving such an answer, Kazumi couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Among the four people who were involved in the accident so far, excluding the young master of the Akita family who had not yet woken up, the other two people were involved in the accident while they were sleeping. The one who was most likely to discover any information was the person in front of him, but nothing was found.

"Did you really not see or hear anything? Even if it was just something you thought was an illusion!" She asked A Sheng unwillingly. Kazumi really wanted to see A Sheng change his answer.

Ah Sheng smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I really didn't see anything strange. I only remember ordinary corridors and candles..."

At this point, Ah Sheng paused for a moment before saying with some uncertainty, "When I fell to the ground, I seemed to hear a 'fluttering' sound, but I'm not sure if it was the sound when my head hit the ground. ."

Kazumi, who couldn't get any more information from Asheng after repeated questioning, had no choice but to exit the room, and headed to the rooms of the other two victims under the leadership of the old housekeeper and the middle-aged man.

After asking about the situation one by one, Kazumi came to the corridor and pressed her temples. She felt confused for a while.

After asking for a long time, there was only one voice that seemed to be an auditory hallucination, which might be related to the 'real murderer', but based on this little thing alone, there was no way to determine who the 'real murderer' was!

If there is no set target, Heiluga’s ‘smell detection’ will not know what it will detect!

And after asking and looking, now the middle-aged man is looking at Kazumi expectantly, wanting to hear a way to make him feel at ease!

This is a serious client!

Anxious Kazumi inadvertently glanced at the silent Lichuan for a long time, which was like a small transparent one, but unexpectedly found that Lichuan had his head lowered, looking thoughtful.

Unable to move her heart, Kazumi couldn't help but put her hand on Lichuan's shoulder and asked, "Lichuan, did you find anything?"

Judging from her past contact with Li Chuan, Li Chuan is not as naive as other peers, and may actually be able to give some good advice.

Lichuan nodded.

Following Kazumi all the way, although Lichuan remained silent, he did not feel that the matter had nothing to do with him. Instead, he worked hard to analyze the similarities between the several victims.

If he wants to ask Kazumi to help conquer the elves, why should Kazumi agree to it if he doesn't show any value and increase his favor?

"Help her find some ideas now, and then find a chance to tell her the plan later, and maybe she can make the request smoothly..." With this thought in his mind, Lichuan looked at the old housekeeper.

"Old sir, do you know the specific ages of those three people? I think they all look young~"

As the general manager of the family, the old butler still knew some information about the servants in the family. When Li Chuan asked, the old butler thought for a while and gave the exact answer.

"The eldest Ah Sheng is only sixteen years old this year, and the youngest Xiaoduo has just turned fourteen. He only started working in the manor this year. Is there any problem?"

Li Chuan shook his head, and continued the old housekeeper's words in a deep voice, "Add in the fact that Azhi is only seven years old, so it makes sense why these people were attacked..."

"The murderer prefers to target younger people?!" Kazumi revealed Lichuan's guess with a face of surprise, and a strange look flashed in his eyes when he looked at Lichuan.

"Maybe it's because he's less courageous." Lichuan added casually, and once again expressed his guess, "Before moving to the main castle, Asheng and the others lived in a room with two people, but now they live with four people in a room. room."

"Perhaps the other party felt that there were too many people and it was difficult to attack, so they approached Azhi?"

"It must be true!" the middle-aged man said excitedly, "Azhi has been sleeping alone since he was five years old. The maid who takes care of him sleeps in the room next to him!"

"If that's the case, Mr. Akita had better not let Azhi alone in the room today." Kazumi suggested quickly.

"Azhi's mother has been taking care of him today, but just to be on the safe side, I'll move him over and sleep with him later." The middle-aged man nodded at Kazumi, then patted his forehead and turned to look at the old housekeeper, "That's right. , tell us to go down and everyone in the castle tonight find other people to squeeze in, preferably four or five people in one room!"

After explaining the matter, the middle-aged man looked at Kazumi and Lichuan solemnly, "You two, the rest is all up to you! If you have any requests, just ask, and I will do my best to help you achieve them!"

Resisting the urge to increase the price temporarily, Kazumi pulled Lichuan to her side and promised confidently, "As long as Mr. Akita prepares a separate room for us and allows me to use elves to fight in the castle, I'm sure Can eliminate the 'murderer', no matter what it is!"

"Us? A room?"

Smelling the faint fragrance around him, Lichuan looked stunned for a moment, but then quickly reacted.

You are using me as bait! Soulless!
