Deadly Game: Live CP

Chapter 146 2 Bitterness

The four found Xiong Qi, who said that he did find something, but was not sure what it was for.

Finally, both sides shared the clues they found, and Chen Ying reminded that there was something wrong with the bayberry tree.

The four of them went outside to the bushes and found the picture frame that Xiong Qi mentioned.

"From this angle, my room is framed by the picture frame." Ling Jiushi said.

"The angle of this picture frame is very tricky. When viewed from other directions, there are obstructions everywhere. Only your room is framed in the frame." Ruan Lanzhu said.

"You mean, the hostess uses this picture frame to turn people into paintings." said Tan Zaozao.

Ruan Lanzhu: “Yes.”

"Brother Lingling's room was framed by a painting, so even though he didn't touch the painting, the hostess still went to him. But because Brother Lingling didn't touch the painting and didn't violate any taboos, the hostess didn't succeed." Chen Ying said.

After hearing this, Ling Jiushi took down the picture frame.

"Things have happened in your room one after another. We must be targeted by someone. They will definitely take action again. They are very familiar with the taboos. We must be careful." Ruan Lanzhu said.

"What's the use of being careful? You can't guard against it." said Tan Zaozao.

Ruan Lanzhu thought for a moment and said that since the murder was related to the picture frame, then they should hide the picture frame and see who would come looking for it, and tell everyone the news, which would both make our position clear and lure the snake out of its hole.

Tan Zaozao also thought this was a good idea, to do it openly and avoid having to hide and procrastinate.

They found a secluded place to hide the picture frame and left.

At the dining table, Ling Jiushi was still thinking about the picture frame. He said he was uneasy because he couldn't find the person hiding in the dark.

Ruan Lanzhu paused after hearing this and said, "How about coming over to sleep with me... with us tonight?"

"Three, that's a bit crowded, right?" Ling Jiushi said.

Ruan Lanzhu looked at Tan Zaozao, "Xiaojuzi, do you think it's too crowded for three of us to sleep together?"

Ruan Lanzhu looked as if she would make her pack up and leave immediately if she dared to say she was squeezing.

Tan Zaozao said hurriedly: "It's not crowded, not at all. I tell you it's good for three people to sleep together. If anything happens we can discuss it together..."

"Okay." Ling Jiushi said with a smile.

Tan Zaozao breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.

"Well, I'll come and squeeze in with you guys tonight. Xiao Chengzi and I will sleep on the floor together." Chen Ying raised his hand silently.

"It's up to you." Ruan Lanzhu said.

Tan Zaozao: "That's great, finally someone is sleeping on the floor with me."

"Wait a minute, gather everyone to the sofa, I have something to say." Ruan Lanzhu looked at Tan Zaozao and said.

"You really think I'm your assistant..." Tan Zaozao muttered.

"What did you say?"

"I'm happy to serve you, boss." Ruan Lanzhu gave a look and Tan Zaozao immediately became timid.

After dinner, everyone sat on the sofa and Ling Jiushi talked about what happened to him last night.

After listening, some people lamented that Ling Jiushi was really lucky, while Ling Jiushi said that his luck was really bad.

Ruan Lanzhu said that everyone should be careful and try not to touch the picture frame and the painting. Although it will not lead to death, it is one of the taboos. It is better to be cautious before figuring out other clues.

Xiong Qi said that if it really had something to do with the picture frame, then it would be everywhere.

“It shouldn’t be triggered by just the picture frame. I guess other conditions must be met to trigger it.

"Last night, Xiong Qi and his team discovered a very important situation. Someone was using the picture frame to harm the guests. I just don't know if it was the hostess or one of the people present?" Ling Jiushi said.

After saying that, everyone looked a little nervous, and some people looked at the people around them vigilantly.

"Everyone, rest assured. The picture frame has been dealt with by us. I hope you can find it in time and notify us in time." Ruan Lanzhu said while looking at the expressions of the crowd.

Then he asked, "I wonder if you have ever been to the studio on the top floor and the room where unfinished works are stored."

"Didn't the housekeeper say that we are not allowed to go to those two places? Why go there? Are you looking for death?" someone said.

"If you don't go, you won't die?" Ruan Lanzhu said coldly.

The person who spoke was confronted by Ruan Lanzhu and looked unhappy.

After everyone dispersed, Ruan Lanzhu and the other three walked in the corridor.

"If we bury the picture frame and make it public, will everything be fine?" said Tan Zaozao.

"Will they learn to restrain themselves, or will they be cornered and reveal their true colors?" Ling Jiushi said.

"It's revealed, dog. How could it be revealed?" Tan Zaozao wondered.

"Pfft, Brother Lingling was just making a metaphor." Chen Ying looked at Tan Zaozao and said with a smile.

"We have to find the key quickly, those people are unreliable." Ruan Lanzhu said.

"Indeed, those people have been scared since the first day Xiao Su got into trouble. Only two or three people are looking for clues. The others are either hiding in the room or waiting in the restaurant, and no one knows what they are waiting for." Chen Ying said.

"They just want to lie down and wait for someone to find the door, then they will benefit from it. These people have a really good plan." Tan Zaozao said.

"Aren't they afraid that if they fail to find the key after the time limit set by the door god, they will all be doomed?" Ling Jiushi asked.

"Everyone will die, they don't care." Ruan Lanzhu said when looking at Ling Jiu.

"To put it bluntly, people like us who are serious about finding the keys are the ones paving the way for them." Tan Zaozao said after thinking for a while.

"The first five doors may be okay, but not after the sixth door is opened," said Ruan Lanzhu.

"So where are we going next?" asked Tan Zaozao.

"Let's go to the studio on the top floor. We have to go no matter how dangerous it is." Ruan Lanzhu said after thinking for a while.

After the four of them reached the top floor, Ruan Lanzhu said to the three of them, "Wait a minute, I'll go knock on the door."

"Knock, knock on the door?" Tan Zaozao looked confused.

Then, Ruan Lan Zhuzhen went forward and knocked on the door.

Tan Zaozao: "I thought he was just talking, but I didn't expect him to really knock?"

"This isn't the first time you've gone in with him, how come you don't know this?" Ling Jiushi said.

"It looks like there's no one here, let's go in." After knocking on the door a few times and hearing no response, Ruan Lanzhu turned around and said to the three people.

Then, Tan Zaozao skillfully handed over the hairpin.

After the door opened, Ruan Lanzhu pulled off the white cloth covering the painting that the hostess was painting.

The ten people were drawn above, half of them were painted, and except for Xiao Su, the others had no faces drawn.

"Twelve Sufferings." Ruan Lanzhu said.

"Twelve Sufferings, there are only ten of us." Ling Jiushi said.

"Does that face look familiar to you?" Ruan Lanzhu said, pointing at the only person with a face in the painting.

"Xiao Su. The mistress is using us to paint, and only those who get into trouble will have face. She is using us to complete her work, ha, I never thought that it would be passed down through the ages in this way." Ling Jiushi said with a sneer.

"Take another look and see if there are any other clues." Ruan Lanzhu said.

The four of them were searching in the studio, and Tan Zaozao picked up a painting and said, "This one is okay. It's not that scary, it's pretty good."

Here, Ling Jiushi found a paint bottle with red paint in it. However, the painting was all black, white and gray, with no red at all. Ling Jiushi wondered why she put red paint there.
