The four of them quietly appeared at the door of the study. At this moment, Chu Nan was nimbly passing a long strand of hair through the keyhole. The door lock opened.

The other three were all overjoyed: "It's done!"

Chu Nan pushed open the door and walked in first. Li Ming and the others hurriedly followed, and then closed the door silently.

The study room was clean and tidy. There was a huge bookshelf against the wall, and there were a lot of books on display.

Li Ming and the other three entered the study room, went straight to the bookshelf without hesitation, and began to rummage through them, but Chu Nan stood still. After looking around for a week, he frowned, and walked to the chaise longue by the window.

A half-open book was randomly placed on the recliner. He picked it up and looked at the title "The Collection of Detective Chris". He flipped through it, but found nothing.

He was about to put the book back, but the young man with yellow hair came over and asked, "How is it? Did you find anything?"

Chu Nan shook his head and said, "No." The young man with yellow hair took the book in his hand and glanced at it: "The Collection of Detective Chris?"

He mumbled a little: "This is the book the big boss has been reading?" He immediately opened the book and read it again, but found nothing.

He couldn't help flipping through it several times, but after researching and researching, he couldn't find any clues, so he curled his lips, threw the book back on the recliner, and turned back to the bookshelf to search.

There are not many things in the study room, except for the books, there are only tables, chairs, ink and paintings on the wall, so they have finished searching in less than half an hour.

However, they did not find any clues about the doll, and they couldn't help but look at each other.

The yellow-haired young man couldn't help but smiled awkwardly. After all, he had sworn to guess that the doll was in the study before, but now they found nothing. Isn't this a slap in the face?

But at this time, the others didn't care about his thoughts, and they all frowned. This is already the fourth day they have been here, but they have no clue about the mission goal.

Originally, they thought that for this trip to the study, they were full of confidence, thinking that even if they couldn't find the doll, they should get some important clues, but they didn't expect to find nothing.

Li Ming's heart sank. This is the fourth day. The longer the time drags on, the more dangerous it will be. Now there are only four of them left. When it comes to the seventh day, they don't know who will be left. This, his eyes became darker.

You Xi gritted her teeth, and said unwillingly: "Let's look for it again, there must be something that we have overlooked."

"Yes, yes, yes!" The young man with yellow hair quickly echoed, "Maybe there is some secret room in this study, we don't want to miss it."

Then, they quickly buried their heads in searching carefully, not letting go of every corner, and time passed, and it was almost seven o'clock, but they still found nothing.

The young man with yellow hair was downcast and said with a very frustrated look: "It's almost seven o'clock, let's go." It seemed that this trip was a waste of effort.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Chu Nan sitting on the reclining chair by the window. After a while, he stood up again and walked to the hanging painting opposite the reclining chair.

The young man with yellow hair couldn't help walking to Chu Nan curiously, wondering, "What's the matter, is there something wrong with this painting?"

It was a very ordinary oil painting, the picture was monotonous, and there was only one flower basket. He had seen it before, and even took it down to examine it carefully, but he didn't find anything special about it.

Chu Nan shook his head and didn't answer, but he thought of the photo and slowly had a guess in his mind.

At this time, it was already [-]:[-], You Xi urged: "It's almost [-]:[-], let's get out of here quickly."

The young man with yellow hair didn't bother to ask Chu Nan any more. They quickly restored the messed place to its original state, and then left the study quietly.

At seven o'clock in the morning, Shen Xiaozhi walked into the study on time. He sat comfortably on the recliner, ready to read the detective book that he hadn't finished yesterday.

But when he picked up the detective book, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He touched the page with his fair hand and frowned. Why did he feel that there were finger prints on the page?

The more he thought about it, the clearer those fingerprints became, to the point where he couldn't ignore them.

His heart tightened, and he raised his head and looked around the study room. He took a deep breath and saw that there were dense fingerprints everywhere in the study room. The bookshelves, walls, tables and chairs, hanging pictures, and even the ceiling were all covered have! ! ! !

It was extremely terrifying, Shen Xiaozhi's scalp was numb, and his heart was terrified, what's going on, who made these fingerprints, could it be them, those guests who stayed overnight?

Shen Xiaozhi's face was very ugly, what are they trying to do, are they deliberately threatening him?

At this time, he hadn't realized his own differences, and it was impossible for a normal person to see these fingerprints with the naked eye.

Seeing the terrifying fingerprints all over the study, he was startled but also a little angry. Are they planning to attack him?

He couldn't stay in the study any longer, he had to go to the housekeeper to see how to deal with those vicious guests next.

Also, he had to ask the cook to come over and help erase these fingerprints!

He went downstairs and went to the kitchen first. It was not yet 07:30, and it was not breakfast time. The restaurant was as silent as ever, except for the sound of the cook chopping meat in the kitchen.

He walked into the kitchen, and saw the chubby figure of the cook at a glance. Just when he was about to call her, his eyes caught the meat that the cook was chopping. His heart was shattered, his pupils constricted, and he backed away in horror. .

The curly red hair was scraped off neatly by the cook, and the broken head was chopped into pieces by her. It was bloody and bloody, and smelled fishy.

Shen Xiaozhi was disgusted and frightened, his stomach churned, and he couldn't help but vomited it out. He knew that head and had dinner with him yesterday. She was the curly-haired woman among the five guests.

Now how could it be, how could it be... He was terrified in his heart. Could it be that he had guessed wrong all along?

The fat cook also found Shen Xiaozhi at this time, but her expression remained the same, as if what she was doing now was normal, she was still smiling, she looked at Shen Xiaozhi: "Master, why is it so early today, breakfast is not ready yet .”

Shen Xiaozhi's complexion changed drastically. The smile that he thought was kind before became weird now. He pointed at the minced meat on the chopping board with trembling fingers, and tremblingly said: "You, you killed her, and you still use this for breakfast, you devil!!!"

"Hahaha..." The cook grinned with her wide mouth, and her expression became fanatical and excited: "No, that's its food. Only our great patron saint is entitled to enjoy these delicacies!"

She enthusiastically poured the minced meat into the pot and stir-fried it: "Yes, breakfast, this is the breakfast I carefully prepared for the protector, it will definitely like it, hahaha..."

This is the minced meat she collected, and it will definitely be more fragrant after stir-frying. She was still intoxicated by the smell of the meat in the pot.

"Ugh..." Shen Xiaozhi's stomach churned again, his face was pale, and he couldn't take it anymore, he immediately covered his head and ran out of the kitchen in a breakdown.

He ran all the way back to the study like crazy, and after closing the door with a bang, he curled up helplessly on the recliner, and then tears trickled down from his eyes.

He had never broken down like this before. What happened just now completely overturned his three views. He never thought that the kind and kind cook who had been by his side since he crossed over was such a terrifying person.

He is just an ordinary person, and he is living an ordinary life. He always thought that he should live his life without any disturbances in this way.

Even if you travel through time, it’s no different. You can still stay at home, have three meals a day when you’re hungry, and read books to pass the time when you’re free.

He even felt that this place was much better than his previous life. Although there was no mobile phone or internet here, there were housekeepers and cooks with him all the time, so he didn't feel lonely at all.

But now everything has changed, he thought his ordinary life was suddenly shocked by huge waves, first the guests who came to stay overnight died inexplicably one by one, and then the cook's horrifying appearance, it was simply a nightmare.

What should he do, Shen Xiaozhi held his head in pain.

How can he stop all this, he tried to calm himself down, the remaining few people he still had to send them away, and then the cook, he decided to fire her, she couldn't be allowed to stay in the castle anymore.

Yes, that's it, Shen Xiaozhi had an idea in an instant.

At this time, it was 07:30, and the housekeeper knocked on the door on time: "Master, it's time for breakfast."

Shen Xiaozhi's face turned pale, and when he thought of the breakfast made by the cook, his stomach suddenly felt nauseous. The knock on the door continued, but Shen Xiaozhi remained motionless like a wood carving.

With a click, the housekeeper pushed open the door, he walked in, and respectfully told Shen Xiao: "Young master, it's time for you to have breakfast."

"I'm not hungry!" Shen Xiaozhi's tone was blunt, he looked at the old housekeeper standing in front of him and said again: "I'm going to fire the cook"

The old housekeeper's eyes moved when he heard the words, and he still respectfully said: "Young master, why is this?"

Shen Xiaozhi immediately told the housekeeper about the horrifying scene just now, and then said with lingering fear: "She is too scary, she is simply a devil, I must let her go."

The old butler shook his head and said, "Master, we can't leave this castle."

Shen Xiaozhi was startled: "I can't leave, what do you mean by that?"
