Chapter XI
"The house is quirky, and the biggest clue we should have right now is going to the church of Fira next week. But there's one place we haven't been in, and that's the basement. The way to open that lock should also be in this house. Oh, and the key we found in the ashes of the fireplace when we first arrived! We didn't think we would try it out at the time, and we might be able to succeed. Thinking like this, Ye Hong wanted to go downstairs and give it a try.
"Let's wait until dawn before we go......" After opening the door, Liu Qingfeng looked at the hall on the first floor, which was extremely low-visibility, and felt resigned.
"It's fine." Ye Hong echoed his thoughts, "You weren't substantially hurt in this room just now, it seems that there are restrictions for the time being, so it's better for us to wait here first." ”
The two of them returned to the room they had just been in. Ye Hong thought for a while and said, "Have you found a problem, after we came here, because there is no limit on space and time, we don't know the date here, for the manservant to go to the Fira Church next week, is it seven days later, or the first day of the next week's cycle?" Or, how many days is a week here? ”
Liu Qingfeng was stunned, obviously he hadn't thought about this problem, and at the same time, he also secretly admired Ye Hong's wisdom and caution in his heart.
"When it's dawn, we'll ask the maid what day of the week it is." Ye Hong paused deliberately, "I don't know how they will react when they see the corpse in the kitchen." Or, will there be more than one person who dies? ”
The two chatted with each other, the sky quickly turned white, standing in the corridor, the light of the morning sun outside the huge floor-to-ceiling window pierced the entire house, more or less dispelling part of the fear and confusion in the hearts of Ye Hong and the others.
Liu Qingfeng was still wearing the medieval red thin tie shirt in the wardrobe, and the bow at the neckline was almost perfect. He took a step forward first, but was pulled by Ye Hong at the corner of his clothes: "Half of the maids of the big families have gotten up to prepare breakfast at this time, so they are bound to see the corpses in the kitchen, but there are no exclamations yet, which is very abnormal." ”
Liu Qingfeng immediately understood what Ye Hong meant, lightened his steps, and went downstairs.
The key in the fireplace doesn't match the keyhole of the big lock on the basement door. Compared to Liu Qingfeng's disappointed expression, Ye Hong seemed very calm, he had already expected that the key to this lock would not be so easy to find, but he was unwilling to let go of any hope.
"The priority now is to figure out what day it is, and if I can, I'd like to go to that church first. But there is also a certain reason why the space is scheduled for us to go next week. But it could also be an attempt to blind our approach, maybe go ahead of time and find out something. But it can also be more dangerous. ”
