175: Clue

Everyone sat down at the table, and a small group began to share the harvest of the afternoon's exploration.

Vera asked Augs to place a heavy English book in the center of the dining table, pointed to the blood stains on the edge of the book, and said, "You see, we found this in the study. ”

"Resurrection?" Rob looked at the title on the book cover, "Vera, maybe you don't have a good memory, we found this book this morning." ”

"Listen to me, who told you that you can only find one piece of information in a book? We did find a news clipping in the book in the morning, but we didn't find any blood on it. Vera retorted, fiddling with the edges of the paper for a moment.

Rob pursed the corners of his lips, "So, it's stained with blood, what does that mean?" ”

"Look here." Vera spread out the entire book, following the bloodstains at the footer to one of the pages, "This one is the most bloodstained page in the entire book. Have you seen the above, I think it is likely to be related to the murderer's motive for committing the crime. ”

Hearing her say this, everyone stood up and leaned over to the book to read the page of her finger.

"A magic circle that summons the necromancy?" Rob laughed loudly, "My dear Vera, I'm glad you found a useful professional book for the Society. But what does this have to do with the murder in the castle, where the murderer lurks inside to summon the dead? What a fucking bullshit! ”

He laughed like Vera had made some big joke, but the others weren't impressed by his smile.

Vera said calmly: "I haven't thought of the specific connection yet. However, I believe that it is no accident that this book has so much information. As long as you continue to explore the clues in the book, you will definitely be able to find out the truth of the castle case. ”

"Okay, I haven't thought of it yet." Rob knocked on the table and raised his chin to signal to Eric, "What about you, what did you find?" ”

Eric sat down on the table and poked Tiger next to him with his elbow, "Four-eyed boy, I'm too tired to talk now." ”

Tiger pushed his glasses and cleared his throat: "Most of the first floor is used by the maids, we searched around, and at first we didn't find any useful clues, I was thinking to come back and wait for you quickly, but I was delayed by the things in the last room." We found a basement there. ”

"Basement?" His discovery lifted everyone's spirits, and Rob's body straightened, clearly attracted by him.

"Yes." Tiger nodded, "It's just that the basement is locked with a chain, and we haven't been able to find the key for a long time." ”

"Well, the basement that can't be opened. It makes no difference between finding it and not finding it. ”

Rob looked at Ma Hao and the president again. "How's that, Shavent, what about you?"

The president sat silently, seemingly unresponsive to Rob's wishes. Ma consciously took out the shredded paper in his pocket, "We opened the door of the master bedroom and picked up the hostess's diary inside. ”

"There are only three relatively complete diaries, and the rest are some shredded paper, I don't know if I can piece them together." Maha passed the diary to Vera's hand.

Vera carefully skimmed through the contents and passed the piece of paper to the next person: "The mistress has a good habit, if only she could find other diaries, maybe she will write down the events before the crime." ”

Ma Haohao also thought like this: "Have you found a similar diary in the study?" ”

A diary is a very private thing, and under normal circumstances, in addition to the private bedroom, the most likely place to appear is the study.

Vera and Augs looked at each other and shook their heads in affirmation: "No, neither of us noticed. But after dinner, we can go again. ”

"Nope." Rob interrupted Vera's assertions, "We have other arrangements after dinner. Don't forget our plan, tonight is going to be a game of conjuring. ”

Conjuring Game ......

The smile that Ma Hao was about to show to Vera froze on his face. It's not enough to play the ghost card yesterday, what kind of ghost summoning game is this Rob going to play to the death?!

This house doesn't need to be recruited, there are already ghosts, and if you recruit a few more ghosts, will they still have a way to live?

Mahao's expression was indescribable, and Rob asked her and the president again, "Is there anything else you found in the master bedroom besides the diary?" ”

Something else?

There are only women's clothes in the bedroom, is this considered a discovery?

"There are jewels in the room." Before Ma Hao could speak, the president spoke up in front of her.

When he mentioned this, Ma Hao Hao remembered that there were indeed many precious jewelry gems on the dresser and display shelves in the master bedroom.

These things had nothing to do with her mission, but instead made her ignore some points that ordinary people would notice. For the aborigines of this world, compared with diaries, valuable treasures are the biggest discoveries, right?

Sure enough, after the president's words were finished, the eyes of Rob and several members lit up.

Camilla changed her stinky face, which had lasted from the morning to now, and her excitement overflowed before she said: "Are you sure it's real jewelry?" Where is the master bedroom, take us there! ”

She couldn't wait to get up from her chair and urged Ma Hao and the president to lead the way.

"Hahaha, this trip was not in vain. I think those treasures are real, we're going to send them! Rob also got up excitedly, grinning and trying to put on the president's shoulder, but when he was about to get there, he was dodged by the president.

He didn't care, he grabbed the president's arm again, and left a few gray finger prints on the president's white cuffs: "Hurry up, take us to see those jewels!" ”

They were so excited, Ma Hao and the president could only lead the way.

The door to the master bedroom was still open, and Rob and Camilla took the lead in squeezing into the room, followed by the others. Compared to the quiet of the afternoon when two people explored the room, the master bedroom, which was flooded with eight people at once, seemed messy and crowded.

The light of the flashlight swept around the room, and Camilla and Rob went straight to the dresser, and rudely opened the drawer, pulling out the necklace bracelets of pearls and gemstones.

Camila sighed, "Oh my God, these gems are real!" Look at the color of this emerald, I only saw Mrs. Simpson wear such a beautiful gemstone at my aunt's birthday party! ”

As she spoke, she held the jewel necklace to her chest and gestured at it, as if she had imagined it on herself. After a long time, I put it down, picked up the pearl bracelet and put it on my wrist, and shook my wrist to look at it.

Rob and Eric rarely taunted her, and the two left the dresser and lay on the display shelf in the room. The collection is even more expensive and staggering.

Ma Hao followed them around the room again, and heard Vera frown and muttered to herself: "It seems that the murderer is not here for the wealth of the castle. ”
