Altar of Infinity

A faint voice sounded in the room: "Who is it?"

Then, the door was pulled open from the inside.

Jiao Ge has just turned [-], but she looks tender, her beautiful eyes are covered with a thin layer of mist, and the corners of her eyes are red, as if she has just cried.

He said timidly, "Hello."

Xie Ji responded in a friendly manner: "Hello, my surname is Xie, his surname is Jiang, and I want to ask you to know something about Zhang Hong."

Jiao Ge nodded and welcomed them into the room.

They sat down at the coffee table, and Jiao Ge brought three cups of fragrant fruit tea.

He sat across from the two of them, as if he was relatively timid. He hunched his back and lowered his head when he spoke: "Someone else came to me today, so let me repeat what I told them."

Xie Ji: "Thank you."

Jiao Ge pressed a deep fingerprint on the glass with his fingers.

"Brother Zhang is very kind and treats us very well. He likes to listen to music, sings very well, and has a good relationship with his sister.

"He was fine before he disappeared, but he disappeared very suddenly, and we don't understand why it happened.

"My sister was very sad after he disappeared. The castle is closed, and no one can get out unless you have my sister's key, so everyone thinks that Brother Zhang must still be in the castle.

"But my sister searched the whole castle and couldn't find Brother Zhang, so I contacted you and asked you to find Brother Zhang.

"That's all I know."

It's not much different from what the gardener and housekeeper say.

The Xie family is naturally sensitive to human emotions, and Xie Ji has experienced it for a long time. Even though Jiao Gekan's expression seems normal, he still feels something is wrong.

He winked at Jiang Jichu, and the latter asked sullenly, "Really, why did I hear that he has a bad relationship with everyone?" Jiao Ge's expression was obviously flustered: "Why, how could it be."

"If you are really good for your sister and Zhang Hong, you'd better tell the truth, otherwise, who will bear the responsibility if you find a dead body?" Jiang Jichu has been licking blood with the tip of a knife for a long time. Deliberately, every byte is like a layer of ice slag.

Jiao Ge hadn't experienced much in the world yet, so he shivered when he was so frightened.

Xie Ji began to sing red faces, and said softly: "Don't listen to his nonsense, as long as you tell us everything you know, Zhang Hong will be fine."

Jiao Ge gritted his teeth and insisted for the last time: "I, I really don't know anything anymore."

Jiang Jichu: "Jiao Wanshu's father intends to divide the inheritance into two parts, one for her and the other for you, but if she marries Zhang Hong, the inheritance will be given to Zhang Hong. Zhang Hong hid or killed him!"

"How do you know?" Jiao Ge raised his head in disbelief, "It wasn't me! I really didn't let Brother Zhang go! I didn't hide, let alone kill him!"

Jiang Jichu: "If you don't explain clearly, we will tell Jiao Wanshu that you are the one who did something wrong to Zhang Hong."

Jiao Ge trembled violently: "Don't! Don't hand me over to my sister, it's really not me! I didn't do anything to Brother Zhang!"

Jiao Ge seemed to be very frightened, the half-cup of fruit tea left trembled and spilled all over the floor, converging on the tiles to form a light brown pool of water.

Xie Ji instantly understood the root of Jiao Ge's fear.

He was afraid of Jiao Wanshu!

Xie Ji: "You just said that you didn't let Zhang Hong go. What do you mean? He left by himself?"

Jiao Ge put the water glass back on the table, and curled up on the sofa with his legs crossed to seek a sense of security.

"I...I...he..."

During the movement, his clothes and trousers were pulled up a bit, revealing a skeleton and fair skin that were smaller than others below. With the disappearing eyes, no one can bear to continue to press after seeing it.

Xie Ji looked at Jiao Ge, but his mind was on Jiang Jichu who was sitting beside him.

Whenever Jiang Jichu encounters something he doesn't want to talk about, his jawline will collapse very tightly, and his muscles will automatically switch to a defensive state, as if death would be as safe as death.

Xie Ji considers himself not to be merciful, but he knows how to be compassionate and cherish jade.

But this kind of thing has happened to Jiang Jichu a lot, and he has subtly cultivated an amazing immunity. No matter how pitiful Jiao Ge's performance is, he will not be moved.

Although he was calm in his heart, he still acted like a caring big brother, and asked in a soft voice: "You know where Zhang Hong has gone, right?"

Scorched grape-like eyes looked at Xie Ji imploringly: "I tell you, can you not tell my sister?"

Xie Ji: "If you're telling the truth."

Jiao Ge whispered: "I really don't know where Brother Zhang has gone, but he doesn't want to stay in the castle."

Xie Ji continued to dig down from the opening: "Why doesn't he want to stay in the castle?"

Jiao Ge: "Because my sister has a strong desire to control, Brother Zhang feels out of breath."

Xie Ji: "But aren't they very affectionate, and are they going to get married soon?"

Jiao Ge struggled for a moment and made up his mind: "Brother Zhang doesn't want to get married, it's my sister who insists on getting married."

Xie Ji speculated: "Your sister and Zhang Hong have reached the point where they are talking about marriage, and they have begun to prepare for the wedding, but when they came to the environment where I grew up, your sister's possessiveness became more and more intense, and Zhang Hong endured it. No, so I suddenly regretted it on the eve of the wedding, and disappeared, and my whereabouts are still unknown."

Jiao Ge opened his mouth wide in surprise: "How do you know?"

According to what Jiao Ge said, the possibility of Zhang Hong escaping on his own is very high.

But this is the fourth floor of the altar, and the altar will not allow them to do the simple task of "capturing the escaped marriage partner".

Xie Ji didn't answer, but asked some more details and bid farewell to Jiao Ge.

He wanted to go back and listen to the clues from Xie Quan and Si You.

·

At nine o'clock in the evening, Xie Ji's team of four gathered in his and Jiang Jichu's room to share the information they had gained during the day.

"That's all we know, what about you." Xie Ji took the lead in sharing what he saw.

With Si You's protection, Xie Quan didn't encounter any danger, let alone suffered any injuries, and he was still as energetic as before: "Wow! Brother! Si You and I found that the relationship between this castle is very confusing!"

Xie Ji: "The relationship is chaotic?"

Xie Quan was in high spirits: "As for that Jiao Ge you mentioned, he actually has a crush on Zhang Hong!"

Xie Ji: "?" Wait, why did the plot suddenly turn in a strange direction.

He wondered, "Jiao Ge has a crush on Zhang Hong?"

Xie Quan's eyes were narrowed into two crescent moons, and he was full of gossip: "That's right! The chef doesn't know for now, Jiao Ge has a crush on Zhang Hong, the housekeeper, the gardener, and the maid all have a crush on Jiao Wanshu! What a sadomasochism of a wealthy family, gathering all men and women , Men and women, women and various elements, exciting!"

Xie Ji: "??"

What he and Jiang Jichu investigated during the day were all clues to vendetta, and even fought with ugly and smelly monsters, but Xie Quan and Siyou listened to gossip all day?

Xie Ji looked at Si You uncertainly, thinking that Si You would be more reliable than his own brother.

As a result, Si You nodded solemnly.

Xie Ji: "..."

Who in the end went the wrong world line.

He leaned back slightly, and leaned on the pillow embroidered with a pair of mandarin ducks on his neck: "If the clues we investigate are correct, everyone in this castle, except the chef and Jiao Wanshu, has a motive to attack Zhang Hong. I don't think that's the case. The two are innocent, and we will focus on investigating them tomorrow."

Siyou pointed out the key point: "To clear the level, you need to complete the specified tasks, or fulfill the boss' wish, or kill the boss, but we are still not sure who the boss is."

Judging from the current clues, the boss is likely to be between Jiao Wanshu and Zhang Hong.

But the two people's goals are opposite, Jiao Wanshu wants to marry Zhang Hong, but Zhang Hong can't bear Jiao Wanshu's possessiveness, and is not satisfied with the impending marriage.

Xie Quan glanced at this and that, and opened his mouth to suggest the direction of investigation for the organization: "Judging from the plot of the checkpoint, Jiao Wanshu is definitely a coquettish character, brother, do you think she will have some more extreme behaviors? "

Xie Ji couldn't quite match Xie Quan's brainwaves, but he still tried to guess based on Xie Quan's thoughts: "For example, the person who wants to get your heart even if he can't get your heart, is tied to Zhang Hong after getting married. Category."

Xie Quan's face was full of contempt "Why don't you understand?": "That's so disgraceful."

Xie Ji humbly asked: "How do you call it decent?"

Xie Quan: "For example, 'Marriage is just a scene, we become one', 'You are in my stomach, we will always be together'."

Xie Ji, aged 26, is physically strong, likes to exercise, has no bad habits such as smoking and drinking, and all the indexes of the physical examination are in the excellent range.

At this moment, I felt my blood pressure soared by [-].

His brother is usually watching something!

Xie Ji said seriously: "Xie Quan, I hope you can provide me with a copy of your usual reading list after you get out."

Xie Quan went straight to hide behind Si You: "Brother, I'm just providing ideas for the investigation!"

Xie Ji: "If Jiao Wanshu...eats Zhang Hong, then she doesn't need to ask us to find Zhang Hong, because she has already got it."

Xie Quan pretended to be sad: "Maybe Zhang Hong has not been fully digested, he is the boss of this level, and he will break out of his body one day, or tomorrow we will investigate and find out that there is a child in Jiao Wanshu's stomach. It is Zhang Hong's reincarnation, and he wants to take revenge on Jiao Wanshu."

"..." Xie Ji, "Don't wait to go out, you will sort out the reading list for me tomorrow."

On the one hand, Xie Ji felt that it was necessary to pay attention to Xie Quan's education, and on the other hand, he felt that the child had grown up and should develop freely. As long as he did not break the law and discipline, it was fine to have hobbies.

He was "in the stomach" and "out of the body" by Xie Quan, who made him dizzy, and suddenly the hand on his thigh was patted on the back of his hand.

Xie Ji glanced sideways, and Jiang Jichu handed him a glass of warm water.

Holding warm water, he felt relieved.

It's great that a godbrother without a title can be both worry-free and caring.

Jiang Jichu said calmly: "Actually, what Xie Quan said makes sense. Although abnormal, in the level of 'kinky', abnormal is the norm."

Xie Ji understood this truth, but as a brother-in-law, he couldn't accept that the theory came from the mouth of his pure and innocent baby brother.

He took a sip of water and analyzed.

"If Jiao Wanshu is the boss and she didn't kill Zhang Hong, then her wish is very likely for us to find Zhang Hong to complete the wedding.

"If she is the boss and has killed Zhang Hong, then marrying Zhang Hong is an excuse for her to call us here. His real wish is to get something from us.

"If Zhang Hong is a boss, then there is a high probability that he no longer belongs to the category of human beings. His wish is revenge. As for the target of revenge, we need to further investigate and reason."
