Chapter 97 The secret in the manor
"No need!" Xia Chuqi waved his hand quickly, shook his head and smiled, "I just think these are too abundant!"
Not only is it rich, this breakfast is so exquisite that it is comparable to a five-star Michelin star. Not only is the pastries beautifully made, but even the utensils that serve pastries and soup are particularly beautiful!
Coupled with the maid standing beside her and the housekeeper pickup in suits and ties, Xia Chuqi actually felt like he had returned to the ancient European aristocratic palace!
"By the way, Pika, when did Feng Xun leave in the morning?" Xia Chuqi asked with concern while using breakfast.
"Mr. Feng left very early and said that the company had something to deal with!" The housekeeper Pika replied respectfully.
Xia Chuqi nodded, remembering that his secretary Annie said before that Feng Xun also had many companies overseas, and it is not surprising that he is busy with business now. Unfortunately, she doesn’t seem to be helping much, and staying leisurely in this manor is like a rice worm instead!
"Ms. Xia, what are the arrangements when breakfast is used up?" The housekeeper Pika asked with a smile: "Are you continuing to visit the manor or want to go to the city? The car has arranged it for you. I wonder where Miss Xia?"
"No need, I will stay in the manor today and do some work!" Xia Chuqi shook his head and smiled and politely declined the butler's proposal, intending to continue to connect with the supervisor Kevin to complete the unfinished project earlier!
"Okay, if Miss Xia changes her mind, you can tell me at any time!" The butler Pika nodded, still with that kind and gentlemanly demeanor.
Xia Chuqi responded with a smile, remembering the gray house he saw in the manor that day, and asked the butler Pika: "Pika, I want to know, can I walk around the manor at will?"
"Of course, Mr. Feng said that you can walk around!" The butler Pika nodded.
"That yesterday..." Xia Chuqi wanted to ask again about the place where the butler said it was a warehouse, but he swallowed it back when he said it.
"What does Miss Xia want to ask?"
"Nothing..." Xia Chuqi shook his head and smiled faintly. In fact, she vaguely saw a hint of embarrassment on the butler Pika's face yesterday, as if he didn't want her to know that place!
So even if she asked him now, he probably wouldn't tell the truth to her, and she became more interested in the gray house because of this. Her intuition told her that it was definitely not as simple as a warehouse!
Could it be that the huge manor is really hidden by Feng Xun? Xia Chuqi thought of this, a light flashed in his eyes. She had to find a good time to explore it!
"If Miss Xia still wants to visit the manor, the tour bus will park in the square..." The butler Pika added.
"I understand. When I finish my work, I can just walk around the neighborhood by myself!" Xia Chuqi waved his hand and said with a faint smile: "You go and do your own business!"
The butler pickup responded and left the restaurant temporarily. Xia Chuqi returned to the room after breakfast, turned on the computer and contacted Kevin, the technical director.
Xia Chuqi felt relieved when he learned from the supervisor Kevin that Huang Jian, who was in charge of maintenance, had returned to his post.
Since Huang Jian made not a fatal mistake, nor was he the one who shot her, there is no reason to lose a good job for false charges!
Under the leadership of Kevin, Xia Chuqi and the technical department held a remote video conference together, and were busy completely solving the unsolved programming problem. Before he knew it, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.
"Xiao Xia, it's really much better to have you here!" Kevin sighed and told Xia Chuqi a good news with a smile: "We will conduct the final debugging tomorrow. If there is no problem, it will be online as soon as possible. I believe the boss will be happy if he knows it!"
"Yes!" Xia Chuqi nodded, and a flying smile appeared on her face. If this project could be successful, it would be considered as if she was worthy of Feng Xun's actions to resist the public and let her enter the company's technical department!
After finishing the remote video with the supervisor Kevin, Xia Chuqi stretched. It was still early and he should have had a nap, but he was not sleepy because he drank a lot of black tea.
She came to the living room, and there was no one in the living room except for a maid. Perhaps the housekeeper Pica had also gone for lunch break.
"Miss Xia..." The maid immediately came forward when she saw Xia Chuqi.
Xia Chuqi made a quiet gesture and whispered: "The sun is good outside. I want to go out for a walk alone, so don't disturb others!"
The maid responded respectfully and handed Xia Chuqi a sun umbrella: "The sun is a bit brighter in the afternoon, so Miss Xia will still hold an umbrella to avoid sunburn her skin!"
Xia Chuqi smiled and took the sun umbrella, left the main house alone, chose a tree-lined path, and walked towards the gray house according to his memory.
Fortunately, although the manor is large, the road is not designed too complicatedly like a maze. Xia Chuqi walked for a long time, and found a stone bench in the middle of the journey. Finally, with his good memory, he found the gray house.
The gray house was covered with weeds, and it can be seen that few people came here, and there was no special stone road built on the ground for people to walk on.
If you don't look carefully, it's really not eye-catching.
Xia Chuqi looked at the locked door and subconsciously pushed it. It turned out that the material of the door seemed to be particularly thick, and it seemed that a layer of steel plate was added.
If it was just a small warehouse, why should it be locked so tightly, as if it was afraid that others would know or break in?
Xia Chuqi was puzzled secretly and fumbled on the lock hole on the door. It turned out that the locked door was not an ordinary door lock, but a special computer-controlled door lock.
In other words, if there is no corresponding access card, the door cannot be opened at all.
It seems that this place is not just a warehouse, otherwise it would have been impossible to use such a computer to control the door lock... Xia Chuqi shook his head and walked around the gray house for a while, but could not find any other place to enter. He could only shrug helplessly and prepare to turn and leave.
However, at this moment, a loud bang suddenly came from the house, as if something was knocked to the ground. Xia Chuqi stopped and stuck it outside the house and listened carefully.
However, perhaps this gray house was added with great sound insulation, and after the loud noise, there was no other movement!
Xia Chuqi curled his lips and reached out to knock on the wall of the house a few times. Seeing that he still had no reaction, he whispered: "It seems that something might have fallen inside..."
