After they went out, the butler had been thinking about something, and he looked at Liu Qiaopu from time to time, not knowing what method this old man was going to use to force him to tell the truth.

However, from the bottom of his heart, the butler did not fully agree that the horror had lied, but now that the whereabouts of the hostess were unknown, it was indeed a very tricky matter, and if the horror did not know, then no one else in this villa would know.

Suddenly, the housekeeper thought of something, he pulled Liu Qiao Pu to the corner and whispered: "Grandpa Liu, I think there is another place we haven't looked for, that is, the side house connected to the back of the main house, but after being burned down by fire many years ago, there are only some ruins left, because the old owner An Ze was burned there, so the hostess has not let us remove these ruins, or the two of us go there to see, maybe she will also say not necessarily." ”

"Are you sure? What are you hostesses doing alone in the ruins on such a snowy day? Liu Qiao Pu asked him rhetorically.

"Oops! Grandpa Liu! I can't care so much now, let's take a look at the dead horse as a live horse doctor. By the way, there is a small basement under the ground, which can still be entered, and it is said that it used to be the old study of the old owner An Ze. ”

"Is there anything in the basement?"

"I haven't gone down to see it, but it's said that there are still some old furniture, and I don't know what it is."

"Okay, you let the cook and Sister Wang take care of everyone, and I'll accompany you to see it."

"Oh."

After the housekeeper agreed, he explained to Sister Wang, and then walked outside the house with Liu Qiaopu, because when he reached the burned ruins, he had to go around the entire main house.

Liu Hang wanted to stand up and ask his grandfather, what are you doing outside? But he hesitated for a moment and didn't speak, because of his grandfather's temper, he would be scolded again. The others also looked like they wanted to talk and stopped, but fortunately there were a lot of people, everyone was not very worried together, and there were no real horror incidents.

But one of them seemed to be restless, she was the little maid who had just been found, and she stood there with a blue and white face, which was very ugly. The cook who walked by her, and even felt that the little girl was sick? He also touched his horrible forehead.

The cook's hand seemed to wake up the horror, and she suddenly caught up with the butler and Yanagihashi, and said loudly, "I, I'll go with you!" ”

"Why? You don't know where we're going? Yanagihashi replied lightly. In fact, the housekeeper wanted to answer in front of him, but Liu Qiaopu patted the back of his hand and stopped talking.

"I want to ...... Do you want to go to the ruins in the back? Horror asked, trying to control his emotions.

With her words, Liu Qiaopu immediately sensed that there must be something wrong in the ruins? Because the little girl's face showed that she was very worried, and if it was not for something important, she would never ask a question at this time.

An idea immediately flashed in the old detective's heart, and he smiled and said, "No, we just want to go and see if Mr. Yun needs help outside?" What a place is the ruins behind this house! ”

"Ahh I... I don't know either...... Mr. Butler...... Should know. Terror visibly tried to retract his words, stammering. His eyes kept glancing at the butler, as if he hoped that he would come out to play the round.

But under Liu Qiaopu's hint, although the housekeeper wanted to speak for the horror in his heart, he could only listen to the old man's meaning and say nothing on the surface.

"Horror, I know you're anxious about the disappearance of your hostess, but you've just come back from outside, so take a good rest today. Since Mr. Butler knows where the ruins are, we'll take a look at them later, so don't worry, okay? ”

"But ......"

"Okay, Sister Wang, please take care of the little girl, I think she seems to be frightened." Liu Qiaopu said to Sister Wang, her eyes always looked at the terrifying little face, and her expression was always very kind.

After being dragged back to the house by Sister Wang, the horror was obviously more anxious, she probably regretted in her heart that she shouldn't have told the ruins herself, Liu Qiaopu took all the little girl's reactions into her eyes, and quietly urged the housekeeper to go out.

After coming to the door, Liu Qiao Pu spoke: "Mr. Butler, what must the horror know?" I think you should be able to see that too, otherwise the little girl wouldn't be in such a hurry. So I ask you to cooperate with me and let the horrors tell the truth. At this time, finding the hostess is the most important thing, what do you think?! ”

"Of course, but what are we going to do next if we don't see the mistress on the other side of the ruins?" The housekeeper asked, after all, he was the person in charge of the house, and he still behaved very calmly.

Liu Qiaopu thought for a moment and said, "I'll tell you about this later, let's hurry to the ruins first, especially the basement, and search carefully." And, regardless of the search results? Except for me, Xiao Yun, Xiao Yan and Xiao Mei, don't let the others know yet. ”

"Okay, old man, I'll listen to you, let's act now!" Before the butler's words fell, the two of them immediately walked to the back of the main house.

At the entrance behind them, a small head poked out from where no one was looking, it was the horror that secretly chased to the door, and she completely heard what Yanagihashi Pu said to the butler, and there was even a hint of horror in her expression.

"Horror, how did you get here?" Sister Wang's voice suddenly came from behind her, and the horror lying at the gate jumped.

She turned around tremblingly, looked at Sister Wang and said, "I...... I just wanted to come out and see...... That one...... The snow is not a little lighter. "A hasty explanation seems unusually far-fetched.

But Sister Wang didn't seem to suspect anything, but she felt that the horror should be sick, she also touched the little girl's forehead like the cook, and then said: "Come in, you will catch a cold if you stand here in a sweater like this, Mr. Housekeeper and Grandpa Liu will definitely find the hostess, don't worry about it anymore!" ”

"Hmm...... Good! Horror could only let Sister Wang pull her into the house, and a pair of eyes kept looking in the direction of the gate, as if she was so anxious that tears were about to fall from her eyes.
