Yun Yeyao and the housekeeper walked in the direction of the restaurant, originally to ask if the restaurant proprietress had seen the hostess and the horror walk out of the villa gate, because the proprietress really likes to pay attention to the movements of the villa, the housekeeper has secretly found it many times, and when they are not paying attention, the proprietress always looks in the direction of the villa gate intentionally or unintentionally.

But he didn't say it to his face, just like the proprietress didn't say anything about the horror of coming to the restaurant every day to work. Of course, the housekeeper is to take care of the face of the proprietress and cannot have any special ideas.

There is a small yard in front of the hostess's restaurant, and there is no fence made of bamboo or wood around the yard, just a circle of stones as a dividing line!

The snow had been cleared of the inside of the yard, and some of the snow shoveling tools, which had probably been used in the morning, were still covered in white snow on the ground. There was no courtyard gate in the courtyard, so the housekeeper and Yun Yeyao walked in directly, and after walking to the door, the housekeeper raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Boss, are you there?" The butler's voice was very deep and showed a slight old age, which matched his fat body and face.

Someone inside soon answered, but it wasn't the proprietress who answered, but the little maid they were looking for. At first glance, I heard a terrible sound! The housekeeper and Yun Yeyao were stunned.

"Horror!! So it means that the hostess is also inside?!! When the words came out of the butler's mouth, the door of the restaurant was opened, revealing her little red face, which seemed to be scared of something, and even her eyes were moist.

"Horror, why are you here?" The butler asked impatiently before he walked in the door.

But Yun Yeyao was anxious to know not this question, he wanted to know if the hostess was in the restaurant? Because he didn't hear the second person's movement at all, Yun Yeyao pushed open the door of the little maid halfway through and walked quickly into the restaurant.

However, there was no one in the restaurant but the horrors, not even the proprietress and the chef.

"Where did the hostess and the chef go? And what about your hostess? Yun Yeyao immediately turned around and asked.

The succession of questions made Horror unbearable, she moved her lips, and actually cried out with a wow, or Yun Yeyao usually has more contact with girls, quickly slowed down her tone to comfort the little girl, let Horror sit on a chair near the door, and then motioned for the butler to come into the dining room to talk.

Finally, the little girl's mood stabilized, and Yun Yeyao asked, "Tell us, what happened?" ”

“…… It was Miss, and Miss asked me to come to the restaurant to borrow food, because ...... The cook said that so many guests came at once, and there was not enough food at home. I came early in the morning after cleaning my room in the brown tower. ”

"Horror, we're supposed to meet in the early hours of the morning, do you remember?" Yun Yeyao suddenly interjected and asked.

"Yes, that's when I go to clean the room." Horror replied.

"So, what do you do with an empty room where no one responds? Who else have you seen besides me? ”

At this time, the butler simply sat down on the side of the horror and listened carefully to the conversation between the two of them.

"I haven't seen anyone but you," replied the Terrible, and that all the other rooms had been unlocked and cleaned with a spare key. ”

"And what about the room below me?" Yun Ye reminded the horror and carefully observed the change in the little maid's expression.

Hearing this, a look of fear suddenly appeared on Terror's face, as if she was guessing something? It was as if she couldn't figure something out at all.

"Tell me, Horror, what's going on in the room down there?"

"I forgot if you didn't warn me, that room was strange, very strange! I knocked on the door a few times at first, and when I found no one responding, I was ready to open it with my own key. But I didn't expect that before the key was inserted into the keyhole, there was a sudden sound of footsteps inside. ”

"What kind of footsteps are they?"

"I ...... I don't remember, I just know that it was the sound of someone walking, I thought that the person inside had just gotten up, and I didn't hear the knock I had just made, so I knocked a few more times, but, but the person inside actually walked to the door and locked the door from the inside! I had no idea what was going on, and he wouldn't respond to me when I talked to him. ”

The fear on the little maid's face grew thicker, and she continued: "Later, I had no choice but to skip that room and continue to go down. ”

Hearing this, Yun Yeyao also knew that it would be impossible for the horror to provide more clues about the Lianfan room in the future, so the conversation changed and returned to the current problem.

"Horror, was the hostess still in the room when you came out?"

"Yes, the master is always in the room, especially in winter, she never steps out of the door." Terror replied.

Yun Yeyao turned his head to look at the housekeeper and said, "It seems that it is impossible for the mistress of your family to be here, Mr. Housekeeper, if you think about it carefully, is there any other place in the villa where the mistress is likely to go?" ”

Before the butler could reply, he stood up from his chair with a look of shock and horror and said loudly, "The hostess can't go anywhere, she can only be in the room!" ”

"Horror, don't worry, Mr. Housekeeper and I have already seen the hostess's room, and there is no one in it."

"But! But it's impossible!! The spare key to the hostess's room is with me, how did Mr. Housekeeper and you get in? He looked at the two men in front of him left and right, his face was white, and his tone was full of incredulity.

Then the butler spoke, "Horror, the mistress is indeed missing, her door is not closed, and we have searched all the places in the house and around the house, and we do not know where she has gone." Originally, I wanted to come here to ask the restaurant proprietress if she saw the hostess go out, but she met you. ”

"Then I... So what now? ”

Yun Yeyao stood up and patted the panicked little maid on the back, asked her to sit down again, and said, "There is no other way but to continue looking." So horror, you must answer our questions carefully and think about all the details of what happened before. I ask you, did you just go out to the restaurant after cleaning? Did you go back and take another look at the condition of the hostess? ”

"No, I'll just come over."

"That means you think that the hostess has been quietly in her room all the time, right?"

"Yes."

"And what time are you here?"

"Hmm...... A little after 9 o'clock in the morning, around 9:15. ”

"The proprietress and the chef weren't there?"

"Yes, it was the proprietress who helped me open the food warehouse and help me move things to the trolley! No, that's it. With that, he pointed to a small wooden cart parked in front of the kitchen, with about three or four bags of rice, a few bags of meat, and a small half cart of cabbage.

Yun Yeyao glanced at it and continued to ask, "Where did the proprietress go later?" ”

"After taking the things, the proprietress said that I would help her look at the store for a while, and then she went out by herself."

"Do you know what the proprietress is going to do?"

"I don't know, she didn't say."

"And then?"

"Then I waited in the shop for the proprietress to come back, and I have been there until now. It's been almost two hours, and I'm in a hurry to go back, afraid that the hostess will find me, but ......"

"That's why you look like you're about to cry because the proprietress has been gone for a long time without making a sound, so you can't go back to the villa to accompany the hostess, right?"

"Well, the hostess is very afraid of loneliness because of her inconvenient movements, and she is also very dependent on me. If I walk away for a long time, she will become very unsettled."

"Is that so?" Yun Yeyao turned around and whispered to the housekeeper.

"Indeed, if there is fear, the master's condition will be much better." The butler replied.

Yun Yeyao continued to ask, "So where is the chef in this restaurant?" ”

"Uncle Chef was out with the hostess, I really don't know where they went!"

"It seems that this matter is more complicated than imagined, so, Mr. Butler, let's take the horror and food back to the villa first, and see how everyone in the villa is searching. If they have found the hostess, that's for the best. If not, then we can only get together and find a way, after all, there are still three injured people in the villa now, what are their identities? Why does it hurt? We haven't figured it out yet. All these things depend on you, Mr. Butler. ”

"Alas! That's all for now," the butler sighed and said, "Horror, let's go back to the villa first, as for the proprietress here, you can leave her a note, and I'll come over to say hello when the time comes." ”

"Okay, okay." Terror responded, and immediately ran into the hostess's counter, took out a pen and paper, and began to write.

Yun Yeyao's eyes were constantly staring at Horror, and he couldn't be sure whether all the words the little maid had said were true, but one thing was certain, she must be the one who knew the mistress best. And the little maid seemed to be too familiar with this dining room, why could she know at once which drawer the lady put the pen and paper! It stands to reason that there is cash stored in the counter, and no one who is familiar with it will be allowed to enter casually.

Coupled with the fact that she was left alone to watch the store, this at least shows that the little maid is a very familiar person in the eyes of the proprietress and has a certain degree of trust.

I can't say what I think in my heart now, Yun Yeyao is ready to go back and settle with Liuqiao Pu, and then decide what to do next?
