Chapter 31 Search
Leaving the people in the villa alone, let's first look at the actions of the housekeeper and Yun Yeyao, after these two people came out of the villa gate, they first went around the perimeter of the brown tower to look for clues. Because of the current weather, it is simply impossible for the hostess's legs and feet to go far.
Maybe it's just walking back and forth between the houses by holding on to the wall, this is the housekeeper's guess, and of course Yun Yeyao also thinks that this is possible.
The two of them walked through the not wide passage between the tower and the main house, and shouted the name of the hostess and the terrible, and at this moment the wind and snow on the mountain were heavier than yesterday, and the snow was almost up to the calf, Yun Yeyao said to the butler, "Is it really possible for the hostess to come outside?" It's hard for anyone who hasn't been injured in this kind of weather to walk! ”
"That's true, I don't think it's very likely, but I've searched almost all the houses just now, and we've made several trips back and forth to the brown tower, but there are no hostesses and terrifying figures, so we have to look for impossible places." The butler's voice sounded very helpless, there were so many things happening in one day today, and he was probably very upset.
Yun Yeyao closed his mouth and followed the butler around the back of the brown tower, where the bell tower could be seen directly. The bell tower is very high, cylindrical, and the entire perimeter is much narrower than the towers on the sides. The huge disc on top is now pointing at 12 o'clock in less than five minutes.
"Time flies so fast," Yun Yeyao said, "I don't think I have done much, and it's almost afternoon." "This is not the first time he has disputed timing.
The housekeeper replied, "This is the case in this house, the morning time passes very quickly every day, and today is a day with many things, if in the past, when the cook brushed the plate and made lunch, it would be more than half past twelve, and we did not start lunch until one o'clock every day." ”
"Oh!" Yun Ye replied and squinted his eyes towards the top of the bell tower, where there was a space behind the clock dial that was not fully enclosed. The space seems to be empty all the way down to the bottom of the bell tower.
"How do you get up here?"
"There's no way up here, do you see the vacancy at the top? There is a place where it connects to the brown tower, and we have to cross the sky bridge and then go through the small door at the top of the brown tower to enter the bell tower. The butler replied.
Yun Yeyao frowned, he was even more worried in his heart, didn't this mean that the hostess was not nearby?
But just in case, Yun Yeyao still asked, "Is there any other place around here to go?" ”
"No, there are only a few houses on the cliff, and if you go around the bell tower and go forward, you should fall to the bottom of the valley." The butler's voice sounded more and more depressed.
Yun Yeyao said: "Then let's go to the restaurant proprietress and ask now, Mr. Butler, didn't you just say that she might know something?" ”
"yes, let's go over and have a look! The proprietress often inquired about things at the villa, and I had a feeling that he might have something to do with the little maid Horror. ”
"Have you asked the lady then?"
"I asked, but the proprietress completely denied that she knew the horror, and I don't want to ask too much about this kind of thing, after all, the work of the horror is directly managed by the hostess."
As the two of them spoke, they walked back to the front of the main house and walked towards the dining room where Yun Yeyao had eaten.
There really wasn't much to walk around the few houses on the cliff, and it only took Yun Yeyao and the housekeeper two or three minutes to circle around the main house and the tower.
Finding the mistress would be a very troublesome thing for all the servants in this house, and Yun Yeyao knew this.
However, he still has a guess in his heart, could it be that the hostess is the one who entered Lianfan's room? Listening to the housekeeper, the hostess's mental condition must be bad, maybe the blood was just sprayed when she couldn't control herself! Just like they had guessed before, just animal blood.
However, Yun Yeyao never convinced himself and completely believed this statement. And judging from some clues, this statement is too reluctant.
'We must find more evidence to prove this, and when we go back, we will find an opportunity to search the kitchen carefully, and let Grandpa Liu also come to help, this old man will definitely be able to help if he has a set of methods." If a large number of recently slaughtered poultry can be found, it is at least one evidence. Or maybe the people in the family and the cook knew about it and deliberately hid it for the hostess? ’
Yun Yeyao thought about it repeatedly, he couldn't be sure of anything now, everything was just speculation, but, fortunately, from yesterday to now, the rest of the servants and guests in this house were all there, except for the hostess and the horror, so there shouldn't be any other strange incidents.
