sunk in yesterday

"What did you do to her?" Xia Zhuo asked Guan Yuzhou with bread in his mouth after seeing the person came back.

There is still time to eat, so it should be fine.

Guan Yuzhou showed regret, and replied in a warm voice: "She sprained her ankle and fell down the stairs."

Chu Jin: "..." He didn't dare to say anything.Fortunately, when he was speechless before, he didn't get angry and punched Xia Zhuo, otherwise he might be the one lying under the stairs now.

According to Luan Yingxue, casual clothes died in the restaurant.Xia Zhuo couldn't see it with his own eyes, but could only hear the details from Chu Jin.

"It's too rough to say that he died in the restaurant. To be precise, the body should have been sent to the restaurant. I followed Luan Yingxue in. The deacon was setting the table, and he moved a new vase from the cart to the restaurant. In the middle of the dining table, it is said that the owner of the family was very excited and rushed to work overnight, and there is a distorted face printed on it, as if the human skin was torn off and put on a vase and placed there." Chu Jin Speaking of which, I couldn't help leaning towards Yu Ziang for some protection: "Luan Yingxue just asked the deacon for a packing bag and left. I thought it was a bit strange at the time, but I didn't think about it. Remember to bring something for Xia Mingming, it would be nice if I followed her up earlier."

Guan Yuzhou ignored it, but Xia Zhuo finished eating a piece of bread, slowly got up, rinsed his mouth and washed his face, then shook his head in front of the mirror, rubbed his eyes and said, "My eyelids have been twitching, and I thought it was showing Luan Yingxue will cause me trouble, but it hasn't stopped until now."

There was a sudden grunt from the ceiling above his head, as if something round rolled over.

Several people in the room subconsciously raised their heads and looked up. The original white wall was slightly red, and there were several circular tide marks of the same size, as if something had been placed for a long time, and the liquid was immersed in it. The floor was stained.

Yu Ziang looked at the window through a gap: "The sky seems to be getting dark."

They stayed in the house with the lights on all the time, so they didn't notice the dark clouds gathering outside.

Xia Zhuo popped his head and was a little confused: "I obviously didn't draw the curtains?" He remembered clearly that he was staring out of the window in a daze earlier.

Mrs. Bai said: "It's the sixth day, be careful."

As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of glass shattering suddenly sounded all around.Xia Zhuo looked back nearby, and saw that the mirror was cracked into a spider web from the middle, and a little bit of debris fell on the sink, and the lamp also flickered twice at the same time.

Guan Yuzhou immediately realized that the flashlight that was originally in the drawer appeared in his hand, and after the room darkened, a ray of light hit the wall.

The light meter lights up, and there is a button with a letter pattern on the square screen. Everyone raises their hands and clicks in. The light screen jumps out and spreads in the air, with a few more lines on it:

[Special Event] Milna Shelley suffers from marriage phobia and plans to escape from the main house the day before the wedding.Boyle Kirk was furious when he learned of this, and summoned all his servants to conduct a search.

[Special Mission] Help Milna Shelley complete her escape.

[Special Reminder] Milna Shelley is in a panic and will attack all participants unconditionally.Boyle Kirk learns that the visitor is conspiring with his fiancée and unconditionally attacks all involved.

[Additional Rewards] Points*5.

(task countdown 120s)

After reading it, Chu Jin yelled strangely: "Damn it, just give 5 points for such an exciting condition? It's getting more and more picky!"

Yu Ziang pushed the frame habitually: "Even if you don't get points, you still have to complete it."

The meaning behind it is to say that he doesn't know what is good or bad, and it would be nice to have a reward.

"So, it is to send Shelley out without being discovered by any aborigines, and on the other hand, to avoid direct contact between Shelley and Boyle." Madam Bai crossed her arms and pointed her right hand while speaking. Knocking on his left arm, he seemed a little impatient: "It's a bit tricky, it seems that it is deliberately set here to disrupt our plan."

"It doesn't have to be discovered by Shelley, you can lure her out." Xia Zhuo interjected.His physical condition is still not optimistic, and his voice sounds a lot hoarse.

Guan Yuzhou put a wet towel on his neck and asked, "Do you want to take medicine?"

Xia Zhuo took out his pocket, only to notice that the hidden painkiller was gone.He paused, and lied loudly: "I've eaten."

In fact, it is not very painful. Now when the towel is applied, it is almost unnoticeable.

Guan Yuzhou handed it to his mouth: "Then make another piece."

Xia Zhuo: "..." Wouldn't it be nice to have some money and save it for snacks? This stuff is bitter and not satisfying at all.

Mrs. Bai couldn't stand it anymore: "Okay, you have time to take care of people, why don't you think of a plan in the remaining less than a minute. There are only four floors in total, but after adding the participants who became porcelain figures However, there are fourteen aborigines we have to face in total, why don't we take advantage of this gap and go directly to the first floor and wait—"

"Fifteen." Guan Yuzhou changed: "We don't need to think of a new plan, just continue to do it as usual."

"...Fifteen? Forget it, how many are not important." Madam Bai frowned, disapproving: "The mission only said to send Shelley away, and didn't ask you to kill Boyle. Isn't it obvious that you are increasing the difficulty?" ?"

"I'm lowering the difficulty." Guan Yuzhou said: "Escorting her away in Boyle's sight is far more difficult than killing Boyle first and then sending her away."

Madam Bai bit her lip and was speechless.After a few seconds, she compromised: "Okay, then go to the fourth floor to get the medicine as originally said."

(The 120s countdown is over and the gate is closed.)

The noise upstairs suddenly amplified several times, and the floor trembled, as if it might collapse at any moment.This was the first time they had encountered such a situation in the past few days, but it was not difficult to guess that Shelley had started to act.

Guan Yuzhou held the doorknob and said, "If you have good dynamic vision, find a way to confirm whether the key to the door is in Boyer's possession, and by the way, lure him away from bumping into the rest of the people."

Chu Jin raised his hand: "I'm good at this!"

"Then you and Yu Ziang go." Guan Yuzhou nodded, then turned to Mrs. Bai and said, "Is there a problem with stopping the porcelain man going upstairs?"

Madam Bai glanced at him, stepped on her high heels and pushed the door straight to the outside. Before she left, she didn't forget to turn her back and say: "Just leave the dirty work to me."

After everyone was gone, Guan Yuzhou reached out to Xia Zhuo.He didn't seem to be nervous, and he still smiled calmly: "Let's go, I'll take you to the fourth floor to see the puzzle you've been thinking about."

Xia Zhuo followed his fingertips all the way to the cuffs, scratched the towel around his neck uncomfortably, and grabbed the hem of his clothes in the next best thing: "Then I can only try not to hold you back. "

Shelley can travel among the vases that belong to the participants, and now all they have to stay away from is the room where the vases are stored.There is no time to implement the same method as sealing Yu Ziang's vase. Now, if it sounds good, it depends on ability, and if it sounds bad, it depends on luck.

But all in all, the third and second floors are undoubtedly the most dangerous places.The dome lights were all broken, and even though it was daytime, the room was still dark after the dark clouds covered it.The doors and corridors here were originally decorated with dark colors, but now it looks like a dark tunnel at first glance.

Yu Ziang and Chu Jin slipped away quickly, and they don't know where they are now.When passing by the fence, Xia Zhuo quietly raised his head and took a look. Sitting in front of the sofa downstairs was the Patriarch Boyle with a cane.The character setting is really mysterious. He just sits there, even if he doesn't make any special movements, but the surroundings seem to be covered with a layer of sad aura, which really interprets the image of a poor person who has been abandoned.The row of porcelain puppets stood neatly behind him, with a warm smile on their faces, as if they were on call at any time, and it looked a bit sci-fi at first glance.

There are iron bars on the outside of the window glass, and the only thing that can be accessed by people is the gate.Xia Zhuo felt that Boyle's sitting like this was really a bit like a watchdog.But he didn't have the time to appreciate it, so he and Guan Yuzhou walked up the stairs to the fourth floor where the noise was the loudest, but when his toes stepped on the step that belonged to the boundary of the fourth floor, the sound stopped abruptly.

Guan Yuzhou handed the flashlight to Xia Zhuo's hand, made a booing gesture, and suppressed half of the cough that the other party was about to utter into his throat.

Not long after, there was a slight "click" sound from a certain room under the feet, and Shelley was teleported from the vase, from the fourth floor to the third floor.

The two of them didn't hesitate anymore, and directly entered the corridor under the cover of the carpet.The door of the room directly opposite was closed and still locked from the outside. Boyle originally wanted to use this door to lock his fiancée, but it seemed that he didn't get what he wanted.

Guan Yuzhou didn't stop. He was not at all curious about the room where the owner and the future mistress lived. He took Xia Zhuo and walked to the right. It wasn't until he stopped that Xia Zhuo remembered that he had been to the room in front of him once—— It was the same medicine room where Boyle had been dispensing his medicines.

"Cough... where did you get the key?"

Seeing Guan Yuzhou insert the key into the lock and turn the handle, Xia Zhuo was a little surprised.

Guan Yuzhou didn't answer, but just reminded him another point: "Stay away from the flashlight and shine it on the door."

After hearing what he said, Xia Zhuo tried to shake his wrist.The light shone on the door, and part of it fell on the paper Guan Yuzhou took out at this time.It was the envelope that Xia Zhuo got. It was as white as snow. Compared with the envelope, he immediately recognized that the door was covered with a faint pink.

The lights on the fourth floor are always so dark. On the one hand, it is to enhance the atmosphere, and on the other hand, it is to cover up the color of the door, so that people's vision will be misunderstood.

"It turns out that the color of that piece of paper refers to this..."

While opening the door, Guan Yuzhou explained his previous question: "Do you remember the storage room you went to last time? That door was a little difficult to open, and the friction of the carpet was too great. It wasn't because the carpet was thick, but Because there's something buried under it."

"Oh~" Xia Zhuo watched the person lock the door from the inside, and then pressed the button of the wall light.

The switch still responds with a ringing sound, but the light bulb above the head is completely broken into pieces, and the glass of the cabinet has also been scattered under the light of the flashlight, and it is glowing slightly under the eyelids.

"Feel better?"

Xia Zhuo nodded: "It's much better to see you."

Guan Yuzhou laughed: "You will be poor."

"It's not poverty... Hey, I understand, the beginning of the five numbers 12345 corresponds to five cabinets." There are glass bottles of different sizes in each row and column, and there are several of them from the packaging. There are ten different types of potions, and the total number of potions is estimated to be no less than three digits.Seeing Guan Yuzhou reaching out to break off the shards of glass that remained, Xia Yan couldn't help but stop him: "Don't, I'll give you the towel, and you wrap your hands."

Guan Yuzhou shook his head and refused.He thoughtfully wrapped the towel back around the young man's neck, and rubbed his fingertips through a layer of soft cloth, "Do you think there is something wrong with the cabinet?"

"Yes." Xia Zhuo shrank his neck and moved his heels back, "If you want to use the needle on, cough...on the Patriarch, you only have one chance. Those who don’t know the serial numbers of the cabinets at all. It is possible that cabinet No. [-] is the first one on the left, or it may be the first one on the right.”

He spoke heavily and breathed a little hot.Guan Yuzhou thought for a moment, pushed him to the table and sat down, "Indeed. Look for clues near the table. I'll check the cabinet."

Xia Zhuo snorted and scanned the table with a flashlight.He looked at Guan Yuzhou, who was a few steps away from him, and suddenly slapped his head, remembering that he can now exchange props from the mall.

After a while, he handed over a brand new flashlight with a smile, and said in a very proud tone, "Use mine! Hurry up!"

Guan Yuzhou: "..." He bent his eyes, smiled and reached out to take it: "So generous? Use it casually?"

"Use it as you like!" Xia Zhuo glanced at the balance displayed on the watch, confidently said, "I'll give you a new one when it's used up!"

"Okay, don't be so loud, watch your throat."

As soon as the tail was raised, he ignored the surrounding environment. After being reminded by Guan Yuzhou, Xia Zhuo quickly restrained his excitement, buried his head and opened the drawer on one side.

It can be seen that Boyer's usual habits are good, maybe doctors have some little cleanliness more or less, just like this room is still filled with a faint smell of disinfectant.

He should come to this medicine storage room often. There are several boxes of cigars of different brands in the drawer, and the packaging has been opened. There are also used and discarded manuscript papers in the trash can under the belly of the table.

Xia Zhuo bent down a little, not too dirty, and took out one of them from the trash bag.

This is a sketch of a wedding dress, and there are traces of revisions everywhere. On one side, the color of the bouquet is carefully recorded. It is true that a lot of thought has been put into it.Xia Zhuo dug out a few more copies, all of which were mixed in content, and there were even several waste drafts of the design of the wedding ring.

"This Boyer is quite caring... The coffee is all ready, and he must have stayed up all night." He got up and sat upright with emotion, and opened the drawer on the left.

Perhaps because the room was locked all the time, all the drawers were unlocked, which saved them a lot of trouble.Unlike the drawer on the right with daily necessities, the drawer on the left looks a bit empty, with only an antique camera and a stack of flip-flopped photos underneath.

Xia Zhuo glanced at Guan Yuzhou subconsciously, took out the photos and flipped them on the desktop, and was surprised to find that all the subjects in the photos were Shelley in a healthy period.

Shelley while eating, Shelley sitting in the study reading a book, Shelley practicing body shape... At first, it was quite normal, all of them were life photos, but the angles were strange, and many shots had a sense of blur that was specially drawn in, and there was still Partially obscured by some unknown objects.

It immediately occurred to him that these were all candid shots.

Later, Shelley in pajamas, Shelley in the bath, and even Shelley doing adult activities on the bed with others.

The man who co-starred in it didn't show his face, but he wore the emerald ring on his arm around Shelley's waist-the richest man didn't run away.

"...Guan Yuzhou, I'm really going to have the eye of a needle, woohoo."

Guan Yuzhou didn't know why, so he took a few steps in this direction.Xia Zhuo swept his hand away, and directly stuffed the unsuitable pictures back into the drawer: "You can't read it! Cough cough cough..."

Once excited, the old problem of coughing happened again.

Guan Yuzhou smiled helplessly, but frowned again in an instant.With a "shh", he pushed Xia Zhuo under the table, and cleaned up all the remaining photos on the table.

The two flashlights were all turned off, and the locked door was inserted with a key. The sound was not clear through the door, but it made people tense instantly.

squeak-

The sound of shoe soles rubbing against the carpet could be heard, and Boyle's weird signature voice that night hovered in the not-so-spacious room: "Honey, are you here?"
