There is always a person who, even in the deepest darkness, feels brighter than all the light you have ever seen.

——

When she teleported, Bai Wanwan was leaning on a balcony and gently spit out the smoke ring in the slender cigarette stick in her hand, the smoke covered her face, and even her face was a little blurred.

She is now standing on the small balcony on the second floor of an ancient castle, and the carvings on the white porcelain handrails and other craftsmanship show its value. When she passed it over, it was such a posture of leaning on the fence and smoking a non-harmful lady's cigarette in her hand, in fact, she entered the play quickly, and the smell of smoke was not choking, but with a faint smell of mint herbs, which was very refreshing.

There seemed to be other people walking around and talking downstairs. Bai Wanwan didn't care, through the dense and hazy rain curtain, she could only see that this ancient castle was hidden in a green hill, as if she wanted to go down, there was only one way.

“001？” She expertly snapped the handle of her cigarette on the guardrail, calling out the name.

The data transfer came quickly, but Bai Wanwan frowned. The information given this time... Doesn't seem to be all?

001 almost only suggested that the castle would be obscured by torrential rain in the evening, that mudslides would block the way down the mountain, and that she was trapped in the castle along with six other people. Under normal circumstances, every three nights, one person dies until they catch the real killer or everyone dies.

To Bai Wanwan's surprise, the identity of the villain's father this time is a criminal policeman. And...... He doesn't seem to be the murderer?

The task given is also very brutal: to save the life of the villain's father and his own life under the hands of the murderer, and find the truth.

This inexplicable setting made Bai Wanwan a little uneasy to speak: "Is that all the information for this time?" ”

001 nodded obediently: "After the last world, the host has transitioned to the intermediate level." Although the intermediate level earns more points, it also comes with ...... Mortality. and the difficulty of the villain's strategy will also be a higher level. ”

"The villain, but not the real murderer. Don't you think it's a paradox in itself? ”

001 smirked: "This will have to wait for the host to reveal the secret." ”

“……”

Bai Wanwan just wanted to ask a few more questions, but at the corner of the stairs in the side hall where this balcony was located, there was a sudden sound of footsteps, calm and cautious.

Bai Wanwan didn't dare to act rashly, so she simply pretended to be looking around at the scenery and continued to carry the cigarette and look at the green mountains in the distance. The man on the stairs walked straight up without stopping. As soon as Bai Wanwan turned his head, he saw a man in a black police uniform holding the butt of the gun on his waist, and walked from the darkness to the small light of this balcony with great caution.

His expression was extremely cold. Solemn, majestic, and delicate arc of the facial features are full of indifference, but the tear mole under the eyes is so sexy. The police hat couldn't suppress his seemingly tough black hair, and it added a bit of unruliness to this man who was 1.9 meters tall. However, the black police uniform and the man's black hair were stained with undried rainwater.

What a coincidence.

The corners of Bai Wanwan's mouth pulled a faint smile, looking at the face of the previous world, she even calmly continued to smoke the cigarette in her hand.

When the young man first saw her, his brows narrowed slightly, as if he was looking at some potential danger.

"Name?"

This tone was really not polite, but Bai Wanwan still patiently replied: "Bai Wanwan." ”

This kind of code name, which is only used as a convenient name, naturally does not leave him with any special feelings, and every word spit out of the young man's thin lips is stiff and cold: "Go down." ”

These two words are extremely commanding, if it were someone else's white silk, it is estimated that she would have been angry with someone else, but looking at this face that was reluctant to hurt, she still knocked on the cigarette handle obediently, and followed the man down.

The overall style of the castle is similar to the baroque style of Bluebeard's previous book, but the decoration is obviously more post-modern, and the ornate old decoration with modern furniture does not look very inconsistent. However, it is huge.

Bai Wanwan was obediently following behind the villain's father on the surface, but in fact, she quickly had a ghost idea in her head: "Officer...... Sir, I wonder what's going on nearby? ”

Otherwise, why would he, a policeman, be trapped in this castle with them?

The footsteps of the young man in front of him only paused for a moment, and he still only responded with two words: "Unknown." ”

The fear of the unknown is the most terrifying, isn't it? Bai Wanwan chuckled, and the voice of the cigarette stick after a long time was faintly hoarse: "It doesn't sound like the situation is good, Mr. Police Officer will definitely protect a weak woman like me, right?" ”

"I'm afraid it won't work." This time, the young man unexpectedly responded with a few more words: "My girlfriend will be jealous." ”

？！

Before Bai Wanwan's mind could react, the stairs had already reached the last corner. On the long leather sofa below, a man sat at a distance, all with different expressions, and for a moment they couldn't see anything.

It was now approaching evening, and it was raining heavily outside, and the dim chandelier lights were not enough to illuminate the entire living room. And at the moment when he saw the young man in police uniform come down, a tall girl wearing a fashionable and beautiful blue dress and beautiful blonde hair stepped forward to hold his hand and looked scared.

"Ah Yan, the main entrance seems to have been locked just now. Brother Zhou and I were looking for something in the house just now and tried it, the door was solid iron, and it couldn't be opened without a key. ”

There was a bit of coquettishness in her voice, and the man in the police uniform named "Ah Yan" who was holding her arm twisted her slender eyebrows, but he didn't break away from her hand.

"Young man, don't be impatient." Sitting near the stairs, an elderly man in an ordinary pullover sweater who looked to be in his fifties said lightly: "It seems that someone has played a prank and locked us up here." ”

His face was very kind, he looked like he was engaged in some kind of cultural profession, and his tone was very pleasant.

"I just made an appointment with a friend to sketch nearby, and I didn't know how I was brought here, and when I woke up, I was lying on the sofa, who are you?"

The man who said this was a young man with a panicked look who looked thin and white and wore a light blue denim jacket, and his hands were still stained with dried paint, as if he was indeed a painter who had been suddenly taken captive.

"It's just a door, there's always a way to get out." Said the young man in a suit who was sitting alone in a more remote corner, and even poured a glass of water from the porcelain cup on the table. His face is undoubtedly more delicate and handsome, and his meticulously groomed hair and valuable pocket watches on his wrist show that he is a successful man.

The painter looked very uneasy and took out his mobile phone and pressed it, and his eyes quickly dimmed again: "There is no signal here." ”

The old man in the knitted sweater said with a smile: "Since everyone is trapped here, it is also a kind of fate, anyway, it is raining outside, even if you go out, you may encounter a mudslide, why don't you sit down and talk about your identity and name?" Let's come first, my name is Li Jingxuan, and I am a middle school teacher in X City. After class at noon today, I went back to the staff building as usual, and I didn't know how to wake up here. ”

This is indeed the best way at the moment, and it can also dilute the fear and strangeness between each other a little for a while.
