On the second floor, Xu Huo heard that other guests had returned to their rooms one after another. It was already past twelve o'clock, but the game did not give a second prompt, indicating that the instance should have started when he arrived at the castle.
However, the game does not prompt the number of participating players. The guests mentioned by the middle-aged butler plus the six he saw in the lobby add up to a total of twelve players.
However, it does not mean that these twelve players are all participants in this instance.
The invitation from the cheongsam woman was different from the invitation from the dungeon player. When he entered the door, he gave the middle-aged housekeeper the invitation from the cheongsam woman. The other party did not express surprise or refuse. It can be seen that even if the dungeon was about to start, the castle would not
Deny players entry.
This may be the characteristic of non-closed dungeons. Both non-dungeon players and dungeon players can enter the dungeon location before the time limit.
In this way, among the other eleven guests, there is a high probability that there are players holding black market invitations like him.
The second task of the dungeon is to crack the truth about the disappearance of the guests. If there are non-dungeon players sneaking in, this may be the truth or one of the truths.
We can only see the details tomorrow, but by intercepting and killing the cheongsam woman in advance, he had an advantage.
In addition, the woman in the cheongsam was a wanted criminal, which was beyond her expectation. She originally thought she was just an incompetent player wandering around the castle city, but she was not expected to be a wanted criminal. It was also a coincidence that she let him know how to escape the punishment of absent dungeons, and sure enough, she was a wanted criminal.
A perfect system will also have loopholes to exploit, which is surprisingly good news.
Xu Huo touched the "Umbrella of Justice" at his hand and suddenly felt that he was being watched by a gaze. He turned his head and looked out the window, and saw a pair of scarlet eyes passing by quickly.
After waiting for nothing for a few seconds, he opened the window and walked to the terrace. The pair of peeping eyes had disappeared. Instead, there was a human head on the window sill, with long hair floating outside. His face was pointed in his direction and his eyes were staring.
Staring at him.
Not any of the players in the lobby just now.
Seeing that the other party maintained this posture and stretched out a hand to comb his long hair, Xu Huo closed the window expressionlessly.
The night was uneventful, and the next morning, he met all the players in the restaurant.
The couple surnamed Ma, two men and one woman in the entertainment room, six people in the hall yesterday.
The couple seemed to have a good relationship and fed each other as if no one was watching. The man seemed to have a bad temper.
There were three people in the entertainment room, one was a tall and thin middle-aged man, another was a sturdy man with a muscular back, and the long-haired woman who showed off her hair last night.
Among the six people in the hall, there were a pair of twin brothers, a gentle young woman, and a baby-faced man in the car with him. He was talking to a handsome young man next to him, and beside the young man was a silent black-faced man.
When he looked at the other person, the other person also looked at him and nodded slightly.
Xu Huo turned away coldly.
At this time, the middle-aged housekeeper came over and said in ventriloquism: "Please wait a moment, breakfast will be ready soon."
"Mr. He hasn't gotten up yet?" the gentle woman asked.
"My husband is in poor health and usually has breakfast in his room. He asked me to apologize on his behalf. Although the music appreciation event lasts for five days, my husband is not physically strong and cannot accompany me all the time. So during the rest of the time, you can enjoy visiting the castle."
"The housekeeper said: "He will have dinner with everyone in the evening."
This copy is slightly different from the previous ones. It does not give a complete story background. The game only prompts them to enter the castle according to the specified time, but does not say what they are here to do. The "purpose" of their trip is only revealed at this time.
Spoken from the steward's mouth.
The players exchanged glances, and Mrs. Ma said: "What places in the castle are worth visiting?"
"As you can see, there are two large gardens in front of the castle. Now is the season when rose flowers are in bloom. Guests who like flowers can go there to view them and are welcome to pick them."
"Behind the main building is a botanical garden, which is planted with special plants from different worlds. It is suitable for rest and leisure, and the air is also very good."
"The atrium is a garden maze that covers a large area and can be seen from the second floor of the main building. However, please do not go in without someone to guide you, as it is easy to get lost."
After listening to the butler's words, Xu Huo glanced at the servant who was carefully wiping the decorations next to him, sat down at the dining table and asked, "Can I visit the rooms in the castle?"
"Of course." The butler said, "On the second floor there are three entertainment rooms, a piano room, a painting studio, and a large study room at the end. Everything in it can be used by everyone."
"Where will the music appreciation party be held?" the sturdy man with a strong back and a strong back asked impatiently.
"It's in the small concert hall on the third floor." The butler answered all questions, "But I don't have the invitation from sir, so please don't go to the third floor at will."
It seems that the third floor is a key place.
Speaking of missing guests, the most suspicious people are definitely the people in the castle, and the owner of the castle is the most suspicious.
The players understood each other tacitly. At this time, the busy servant brought the breakfast. The long-haired woman threw the spoon away after taking two sips. She covered her mouth and said with an ugly face: "There are spiders in the soup!"
The dark-faced man sitting next to her picked up the soup plate, and sure enough there was a small black spider that had been boiled to death.
"What's going on in this castle? I saw a spider in the bedroom yesterday. Forget it, there are even spiders in the food. Is this how you treat guests?" the gentle woman asked the servant in a raised voice.
The servant apologized profusely and said: "I will change it for the lady immediately."
"No need!" The elegant woman said with disgust on her face, "Who can drink a pot of spider soup?"
This sentence made everyone else give up their soup plates, and the young player and the long-haired woman left the table.
Xu Huo stirred the soup plate, but he didn't see any spiders. However, he also discovered that there were spiders hanging in many corners of the castle. When he came out of the room just now, he saw the servants cleaning them and avoided them.
Spider silk.
"You must be the last one to come." Mrs. Ma suddenly looked at him with a smile, her eyes like hooks.
Both husband and wife stared at him, but their expressions were completely opposite.
Xu Huo didn't say anything. He threw a table knife at Mrs. Ma's hand that was reaching for the black umbrella. The blade was firmly planted in front of her fingers, which made her retract her hand and turned back to press Mr. Ma who stood up suddenly.
"Don't make trouble, we are guests."
Mr. Ma's eyes bulged and he stared at Xu Huo. Mrs. Ma persuaded him for a while before she succeeded in comforting him. She put her hands on her husband's shoulders, but her eyes lingered on Xu Huo's face, "I like to have a cold face."
Enthusiastic young man."
After saying that, he even winked.
Mr. Ma kissed the back of her hand and said, "Behave yourself. I can wear any hat, just not a cuckold."
After hearing what he said, Mrs. Ma looked away, and the couple became bored again.
