Just after dawn, there was a knock on the door outside the room. Ji Jiuli closed his eyes and frowned. Chu Heyan patted him on the back lightly, "I'll go, be good."

Standing at the door was Ling Yan who was trying to keep calm, An Sheng with a worried face, and Le Xu with a sleepy face.

Seeing him come out, Ling Yan breathed a sigh of relief, "It's all right."

Chu Heyan shook his head, looked at An Sheng, An Sheng said: "Yesterday, Brother Bai Li specially came to remind me, I just came to see if he is okay."

Chu Heyan said: "He's fine, he slept too late last night and is still sleeping."

Le Xu embraced his neck behind him, dragged him into the room muttering, "I told you it's fine, you still don't believe me."

Hearing this, Chu Heyan glanced at Le Xu's back, and it happened that Le Xu turned his head and gave him a meaningful look.

Back in the room, Chu Heyan walked to the window and looked outside. The pure black roses were now covered with a layer of gray, which seemed a little dull. The fog was filling the distance, wrapping the entire manor in the mist. middle.

Anderson appeared in the manor, holding a black tin bucket in his hand, walking unhurriedly on the path.

As if aware of something, Anderson stopped and slowly raised his head, his eyes met Chu Heyan's. Under Chu Heyan's gaze, he reached out and poured the contents of the tin bucket onto the black rose bush.

The red liquid floated in mid-air with some stickiness, and landed on the black flowers. Visible to the naked eye, the blood-stained flowers slowly returned to their original color, and the gray outer cover was washed away, leaking out the original brilliance.

After Anderson finished, he raised his head and showed a provocative smile. He tapped his gloved index finger from the left, "202" he made this mouth shape.

Chu Heyan squinted his eyes at all this, twitched the corners of his lips, turned around and took out something from behind, shook it at him, glanced meaningfully at the rose bushes in the distance, and drew the curtain to isolate Anderson Sight.

Anderson's handsome face changed color in an instant. He stared heavily at the room with the curtains drawn, ground his teeth, and finally left the place angrily.

At eight o'clock in the morning, the players went downstairs one after another. At the dining table, Liu Ben's face was pale, with a crabapple pinned to his chest, and a thick bandage wrapped around his wrist, with blood oozing slightly.

Sitting at the dining table, Ji Jiuli thought about what Chu Heyan said just after waking up. It was obvious that the housekeeper had made a deal with Liu Ben with Haitang.As for the maid, there was one less.

Wang Kai became much more silent than before, just like Xu Miao, he started to eat and eat as soon as he entered the table, and the crabapple flower on his chest disappeared.

Bai Yingze served Xu Miao's dishes with a gentle expression, and there were some red marks on Xu Miao's neck.

Anderson stood quietly by the side, staring at Chu Heyan unkindly, Ji Jiuli wiped her lips gracefully with a napkin, and asked casually: "Mr. Anderson, the roses in the manor need us to take care of them for you." ?"

Anderson moved his eyes to Ji Jiuli, forced a smile, "You're joking, how can a distinguished guest do these things?"

Ji Jiuli smiled and said, "I see you've been staring at us, thinking you wanted to ask us for help, but you're too embarrassed to speak up."

Anderson took a step back and said, "I was the one to be rude, all guests take it easy, I'll come back later to clean up." After speaking, he walked into the kitchen.

Until the players left after eating, Anderson didn't leave the kitchen for half a step, and Sharis didn't show up either.

From time to time, Ji Jiuli walked around the hall on the first floor, gesturing to enter the kitchen, but Anderson stopped him at the door, "Guest, what do you need?"

Ji Jiuli said: "I'm a little hungry and want to eat dessert."

Anderson smiled and said, "Please wait a moment in the restaurant, I'll get it for you right away."

Ji Jiuli stopped him, "What if you don't bring out what I want? I'll go by myself..."

"Sir!" Anderson interrupted him, took another deep breath and said, "We only prepared one dessert, which is cream mousse cake, do you want it?"

Ji Jiuli paused, as if thinking of something, "No need."

After taking two steps, he turned around and asked, "Anderson, will you be here all the time?"

Anderson said: "Yes, the guest."

Back in the room, Chu Heyan, Ling Yan, An Sheng, and Le Xu were in the room. Seeing him come back, Chu Heyan walked up to him and said, "Ling Yan will go up to the third floor with us, and An Sheng is on the second floor. Lexu went to the first floor to look at Anderson, let's go back quickly."

Ji Jiuli asked, "Where's Lian Xue who lives with you?"

Ling Yan replied: "She sensed the connection between us, but she just wanted to get out alive and didn't want to touch the hidden mission, so naturally she wouldn't touch the Begonia flower."

The doors of the rooms on the second floor were tightly closed, and the silence was not like daytime. It was only the third day, but in this dungeon where no one died, the shadow of death seemed to cover everyone.

I went up to the fourth floor without hindrance. There were only two rooms on both sides of a corridor. The room on the left was a pure black door, and the room on the right was a door carved with patterns.

The two came to the door on the left, listened for a while, and then opened the door and went in.There were no windows in the house, and the whole room was dark. He took out the flashlight, and the place where the light was shining was facing a human face. Ji Jiuli just happened to meet her eyes, his heart trembled, and he couldn't help taking a step back.

Standing behind him, Chu Heyan covered his eyes with one hand, searched for the light switch along the wall with a flashlight, dragged him two steps, and with a click, the lights in the room brightened.

Ji Jiuli lowered the hand over his eyes, and only then could he see clearly the furnishings in the room.The room was large and empty, with broken limbs and intact human figures scattered around. There was a huge plaster model not far from the door, which seemed to be being carved.

There is an easel in the center of the room, and oil paint tubes are scattered on the ground. What I just saw is a complete doll, with her eyes open, looking in the direction of the door. This is the maid who disappeared first.

At this moment, she has changed into a white chiffon skirt. On the exposed arms and legs, the joints are covered with red sutures. She wears a white lace collar, which faintly reveals the red color. Mark of.

Not far from her, the second maid who disappeared was sitting there, wearing the same skirt as the first maid, and the seams on her body were also extremely bright.

Ji Jiuli stepped forward and touched her skin with her fingers. It was soft and cold to the touch. With a little force, she could still touch something hard.He walked in front of the other, feeling the same way.There are dark traces at the seams, and there is a gap in the middle.

Chu Heyan squatted down, the broken limbs on the ground felt like plastic, hard and cold, and there were scattered connections of spherical joints not far away.

Obviously, the maid is a human being, and the one who is already dead cannot die anymore. Judging from the traces, it has been a long time.

There is a colorful painting on the easel, a delicate boy stands in the transparent window, with a sad expression, holding a bouquet of crabapple flowers in front of his chest, the background is a cloud of black mist, showing a greedy expression in mid-air, Thin red threads were wrapped around the blurred fingers, tightly bound around the boy's limbs.

The whole picture reveals a sense of despair. The red crabapple flower is held in front of the chest, but it reveals a sense of vitality. The two reds are competing with each other. There are some small cracks in the lower layer of the glass window.

Looking at this painting, Ji Jiuli always felt a little familiar. There were footsteps coming from the end of the corridor. Chu Heyan turned off the light and pulled Ji Jiuli to hide behind the plaster cast. There is no cabinet to hide in, only this The plaster statue can barely hide it.

The footsteps stopped at the door of the production room, pushed open the door, walked to the wall and turned on the light, there was nothing unusual in the room.The visitor walked up to the painter, picked up the brush next to him, and drew a few strokes on the crabapple.

Ji Jiuli poked his head out quietly, and only then did he see clearly the person who came in. He was wearing a black robe, and the whole person was wrapped in the black robe. There was a pure white mask on his face, and the crabapple flowers he drew were a little redder. .

The location of the plaster statue was not far from the door, just enough to block some sight. While he was immersed in painting, the two of them moved out lightly.

The bedroom was right in front of him, Ji Jiuli thought for a while, the current situation was too dangerous, he would be discovered if he was not careful, and was about to pull Chu Heyan downstairs when a key was stuffed into his hand.

Chu Heyan stretched out his hand to make a gesture of five, and then gave him a look. Ji Jiuli glanced at him, nodded, opened the door as quietly as possible and stepped in.

The furnishings in the room are extremely luxurious. Exquisite carved gold crafts are placed in every corner of the room. Ji Jiuli quickly walked around the room and found a painting on the wall.

Above is a bright green hall. The butler and servants are standing in the glass window, looking out dully. An ordinary-looking person is standing outside, holding a wine glass in his hand, talking with a noble lady.

On the display stand at the back, there was a well-dressed young man whose face could not be seen clearly. There was a circle of people pointing at him at the bottom, and there was a sign next to him. Ji Jiuli carefully identified it, which read 'No touching' four words.

Except for this painting, there was nothing particularly conspicuous in the room. Ji Jiuli walked to the bed. There was a bedside table next to the bed. After opening it, there was a small box inside.

Ji Jiuli took out the box, and there was a small keyhole on it. Insert the universal|universal|key|into it, and opened it in response to the sound. There was a simple key inside, which said basement.

Putting the keys away, it was almost time, and after one last look at the bed, Ji Jiuli opened the door and went out.

On the third floor, he called Ling Yan back to his room, An Sheng went downstairs to call Le Xu, and did not come back for a long time.

Ji Jiuli and the others waited for a long time, feeling something was wrong, and went downstairs to look for it. An Sheng came back from the door with an anxious expression on his face, "Le Xu is gone!"

Anderson came out of the kitchen and said, "Guests, it's almost time for lunch. Is there anything I can do for you?"

When Ji Jiuli saw Anderson, he thought of the painting he saw in the master bedroom. Without opening his eyes, he walked up to An Sheng and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Don't worry, a person won't disappear for no reason. We Go find it again."
