Chapter 358: The Prestige of Puppets
Going out and walking in the corridor can also be regarded as a task, this is Mo Xiaoyao's first thought, and then her body walked up automatically, since she would not hit the wall, she let go, and simply summarized the previous clues.
Lady Mary = Vicious Stepmother = Victim?
Michelle = circus owner = brother-in-law?
Antonio = heir to the estate = nuè dài.
Robert = Family Doctor = Sè Láng.
Russian Fat Puppet = Maid?
John = Circus Troupe?
Edward = the owner of the manor = Zoya's father = indifferent and ruthless, patriarchal and a big scumbag flower.
Zoya = daughter of the owner's ex-wife = little pitiful = Avenger?
Viscount Terry Ryman = Zoya's fiancé = an old man who is about to go to earth.
So far, that's all there are on the scene, some of Mo Xiaoyao have already been named, and some of them still only exist in the script, and she hasn't seen them. And the Russian fat puppet she'd seen, but she couldn't match the name—
Well, here we are.
Glancing at the time, 18:36.
The Russian-style fat puppet pushed a dining cart and walked straight towards Mo Xiaoyao, obviously the other party's task was to talk to her.
"Oh, my poor little Xiao Jie, I've heard that woman is really a vicious embryo who dares not to let you attend such a big celebration."
The fat puppet's voice was in sync with the others during the task, calm as a straight line, without a trace of ups and downs.
Mo Xiaoyao spoke automatically, saying the lines she had heard for the first time: "She will get retribution, the Lord of Hell will not let such a person live in the world!" Don't talk about that, Susanna, my corset is missing, it must have been taken by Robert's sè láng - I felt like he had been staring at me since half a month ago. ”
Susanna, the fat puppet, immediately answered: "Oh my God, that little bastard! Dirty embryo! How dare he do such a thing to Xiao Jie of a baron's family - let's go tell the baron and let him blast that bastard out of the Misty Manor. ”
Mo Xiaoyao: "No, Susanna, you know that my father's health has been bad, and his illness has been getting worse and worse recently, and the external affairs of the manor are under Antonio's control, and the internal affairs are under the jurisdiction of Lady Mary, how could she drive her "qingren" out?" ”
The chubby Suzanne hugged her little xiao jie distressedly: "Oh, my poor little xiao jie, it would be nice if Madame was still alive." ”
Mo Xiaoyao was hugged with an indifferent expression: "Susanna, I'm worried, what if Robert takes this matter out as his own exploits to hunt for beauty - you know, those huā huā gōng zǐ always like to show off their deeds in this area - when the time comes, my reputation will be over." ”
Suzanne let go of Mo Xiaoyao: "Don't worry, Xiao Xiao Jie, leave this matter to me." Your faithful Suzanne will quietly get the clothes back from that nasty embryo. ”
Mo Xiaoyao held his heart in both hands: "Oh, Susanna, what should I do without you." ”
Susanna: "Oh, my poor little Xiao Jie, why is your life so miserable." ”
The conversation came to an abrupt end, although there was no expression on his face, Mo Xiaoyao just felt that he was relieved to see the other party, obviously not very suitable for this kind of plot.
There wasn't much time left for them to talk, and Suzanne on the other side was obviously an anxious person, and she didn't know if she was frightened by the puppet body that lost control from time to time, or if there were any clues that Mo Xiaoyao didn't know yet.
Susanna: "I'm your exclusive maid, left to you by your mother, and the only person you can trust in this manor. However, because Lady Mary and Antonio were in power, they were not doing well, and they had to do something else when they said they were exclusive. ”
Mo Xiaoyao nodded: "My identity is the unfavored youngest daughter of the family." The known rén dà has all of these, and you can see if the information on your side is correct. ”
The two exchanged lists of NPCs in each other's possession and found that most of the concepts overlapped and there was nothing special about it. It's just that when talking about Michelle, Mo Xiaoyao keenly noticed that the other party had a trace of hesitation.
Mo Xiaoyao's heart moved, maybe the other party had the same information as himself? Considering that Zì Yóu didn't have much time left, she simply put her mind to the test first.
"Michelle's identity, it seems that the news I got here is not just the circus owner."
Suzanne was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "He is your own brother." ”
Mo Xiaoyao knew in his heart: "Then the three of us are natural allies." Over there, Lady Mary, Antonio, and Robert, is an ally. ”
Suzanne also agreed with this judgment, and was about to say something, but her whole body suddenly stiffened. Mo Xiaoyao did the same, understanding that this was triggering the next task again.
"Susanna, you fat and useless woman, you are lazy again, I remember that your mother told you to bring refreshments to your father, and you still stayed here to chat, and sooner or later she will kick you out."
Antonio's puppets are also that rigid, but they are much more delicate than Zoya played by Mo Xiaoyao. Whether it is a well-cut and well-textured garment, or a variety of gold and silver accessories that shine with a unique brilliance of precious colors, the preciousness of this puppet is evident everywhere.
It's worth a lot of money.
This was Mo Xiaoyao's first reaction, and then he found that Antonio's eyes were green, completely different from her own brown.
Suzanne muttered a few words, barely curtsied, and left, giving up the hallway to Antonio and Zoya. Mo Xiaoyao also wanted to leave, but he couldn't move, so he knew that there would be related plots about her in the follow-up, hoping to reveal more news.
Antonio stared at Zoya in front of him quietly, Mo Xiaoyao guessed that he should be acting "looking", and when he was distracted, the linen handkerchief in his hand was suddenly snatched away, and he watched the other party open it.
"Hah! Thief! Antonio said in what should have been triumphant in a constant tone, "This is a high-end candy that Mommy prepared for the guests, you must have stolen two from the kitchen because you were greedy!" I'm going to punish you with this incriminating evidence, the Reddens won't allow thieves to show up - wait, you'll get an unforgettable whipping - and of course, after the celebration is over and the guests are gone, I won't let you lose the family's face to the rest of the class. ”
After speaking, Antonio turned to leave, leaving Mo Xiaoyao to continue standing in the corridor as a statue. All the servants who passed by her would suddenly turn their heads and stare at her, but their feet would continue to move forward until they could no longer see from this angle, and then they would straighten their necks and return to their previous appearance.
When the corridor was empty, Mo Xiaoyao suddenly "pounced" and knelt on the ground, saying what should have been pathetic lines in an undulating tone.
"Oh, Lord of Hades, what shall I do? I shudder at the thought of that demon, that guy is really going to kill me this time - please, great Lord of Hades, save your followers - let that devil eat the candy and let him die before the end of today's celebration. ”
After saying this, after the script was interpreted, Mo Xiaoyao got up with a bone, patted the soil on his body expressionlessly, and got 5 minutes of zì yóu activity time.
Mo Xiaoyao thought about it, and saved 3 minutes to enter the time bank, she didn't plan to run around, considering the pits that the system didn't exist all the time, she decided to be honest and only go around where the scope allowed, and collect some information.
Although the welfare copy will be fine if it dies, she still wants to clear the customs, it was originally to enhance her strength, so what's the matter if she dies without understanding anything? In addition, she had to study the structure of the dungeon to provide information to the rest of the group, so that they would not have any experience when encountering similar dungeons in the future.
But......
Thinking of a person whose skills are even single-celled, Mo Xiaoyao felt that his head hurt, even if Leyin holds the strategy, he may not be able to deduce the result, right? I don't know if his skill can be used for this kind of choice, if he can, it would be really against the sky.
However, most of the time it shouldn't work, the system won't give him such buggy abilities, at least not yet.
As for Jiang Yan, Mo Xiaoyao subconsciously felt that the other party must be fine, this type of copy is easier to win than reasoning, it is better to be able to calculate people's hearts and win.
During this time, Mo Xiaoyao found a few NPCs and talked about some stories about the entire Misty Manor for various reasons, focusing on Zoya's mother, wanting to know why she died and whether the cause of death had anything to do with Lady Mary.
As for the matter of changing children, as a family secret, Mo Xiaoyao didn't think that the system would let this kind of NPC servant with a public face know, so he simply didn't even ask, so as not to cause trouble.
In case of any strange taboo triggered, with a puppet body like her, I'm afraid she really can't even cry.
At 18:41, suddenly a scream came from the other end of the manor.
Mo Xiaoyao immediately got the task of going to his father Edward's study and bedroom, and then arrived at that room under the guidance of the arrow.
18:44.
Mo Xiaoyao noticed that the room was very messy, the floor lamp fell to the ground, the curtains were drawn, the windows were open, and many servants were revolving around an old man puppet in luxurious costumes.
Once she arrives at the room, the task is complete, and this is her zì yóu time. Considering her identity as a puppet who is not favored, Mo Xiaoyao decisively chose to shut up and observe, her eyes swept over the puppets with special status, and found that there was one more in the corner that she didn't recognize.
The puppet's clothes were made of similar material to Michelle's, with a large hat, and a few strands of white and blonde hair peeking out from under the hat, and occasionally looking up, you could see a very deep scar on his face, from his left eye to his lips, and the flesh turned outward, turning what might have been a good look, into a very ugly appearance.
Mo Xiaoyao keenly noticed that the only remaining eye of this puppet was blue.
