"Exactly! as I passed the hallway...... The balcony door opened suddenly, but I had confirmed it before, it was locked......

The young maid stood in front of the deacon in a state of astonishment, rubbing her hands restlessly over her old but still white apron, which had been washed many times, and recounted the strange things that had just happened to her.

"Oh my dear Maureen, don't make a fuss, aren't you nervous?" the old deacon, dressed in a neat suit, calmly and gently comforted the frightened little maid in front of him, and did not blame her: "For example, you remember wrong, or is it the wind? So, take it easy. ”

"But ......"

"Come with me, my dear, and let us see for ourselves what is going on there. The deacon patted the maid on the shoulder, and led her in the direction of the balcony.

In someone else's case, the maid might not return to the scene where she was frightened. After all, in this house, not long ago, an old man had just left, and the haze of death had not completely dissipated.

But it would be much better to have this reliable deacon of great strength in the company.

Led by the deacon, the maid returned to the hallway that led to the balcony.

The light in the corridor was not very good, looking at the balcony from afar, a few rays of light leaked in through the cracks in the door, but there was an eerie atmosphere inside.

The deacon came to the door, pulled the balcony door open, looked at the balcony, and after finding nothing unusual, set his eyes on the lock.

"Dear Maureen, come and see, it's just that the lock is old. ”

The deacon, while pressing the lock that had lost its elasticity, beckoned the young maid to come and see for herself, causing her panic.

"Huh...... Yes, is it?" the maid walked over and looked over.

Indeed, as the deacon said, the lock loses its elasticity and can no longer jam the door, in this case, it is normal for the slightest movement, such as the wind or something, to blow the door open.

"Yes, dear Maureen. The deacon smiled: "So, don't be nervous anymore, go back to your post, the Earl has a guest today, but don't be lazy! As for those fugitives, I am afraid that they do not dare to infiltrate the Earl of Auschwith, you can rest assured of this." ”

"Hug ...... Sorry, thank you, Mr. Deacon, I ...... I'm going to work!"

......

Su Wen carried Yumi and clinged to the corridor, and the same was true for Mia, who was holding the soft and soft with one hand and pulling the corner of Su Wen's clothes with the other.

The two of them did not dare to come out, and watched the little maid run downstairs like a frightened rabbit, and then walked up with an old gentleman of good strength, passed by them, and went to check the situation of the balcony door.

The end result made both of them breathe a sigh of relief. It seems that this deacon did not find any trace of the two of them, as well as Su Wen's hands and feet on the lock just now.

How could the door open suddenly, and the click was so obvious!

After Ellie walked into the house with her front foot, Su Wen hurriedly picked up her things and followed, and when she passed by the balcony door, she reacted immediately. Out of an abundance of caution, a small Corruption trick was used to break this historic but functional lock, creating the illusion that the door was opening on its own.

Fortunately, it was hidden!

By the time Ellie came to her senses, she had followed the smell of food through a long hallway...... When I looked back, I found that Su Wen and them were still in the same position just now.

"Why are you still there?"

"You wait for me! Haven't you figured out what's going on now!!!"

"Didn't I react!!"

"Anyway, you wait first, don't act randomly, there are quite a lot of masters in this house......"

"I know, then I'll be waiting for you in the kitchen!"

The two exchanged a few words in a whisper, and then Ellie continued to feel her way into the kitchen. Su Wen took Mia and followed her. The resentment of three meals a day, Ellie is much heavier than the average person.

Because with Ellie's physical fitness, she needs to eat a lot of food to maintain her daily consumption. If the energy supply is insufficient, the blood cannot supply the energy expenditure of the brain's thinking, and for humans, it may just be a dull thought or a feeling of hunger. But for Ellie, it's likely that she will follow her instinctive guidance and "prey".

To put it mildly, it's just looking for food, and if the hunger is a little worse, it's hard to guarantee what Ellie will do.

Fortunately, there was no trouble along the way, and Su Wen still met Ellie in the back kitchen.

This luxurious mansion also has a matching luxury kitchen, in terms of area alone, even more than Linda's house in Shetton, and its equipment is also readily available, seven or eight cooks and assistants walk back and forth in it, preparing food.

Perhaps the owner of the house needed to entertain guests, or to entertain the soldiers searching the neighborhood, so the food was well prepared. However, on the other hand, the content is somewhat simple, with only simple bread, vegetables and meat.

After Su Wen and Ellie converged, they began to preach to Ellie "Don't act alone suddenly", and listed some examples of horror movies where the supporting characters who left the team first must be looking for death. Although Ellie agreed, Su Wen didn't know if she had listened.

The large kitchen has a lot of areas for two people to walk around, so you don't have to worry about accidentally bumping into people here.

After Ellie entered the kitchen, she followed the smell and found the incubator where the burgers were stored.

Then he stood on the side of the cabinet and feasted on it.

Ellie was also eating much faster than usual, probably because of the energy consumption just now, and she was really hungry.

Su Wen is a good interpretation of the spiritual creed of "what you come is safe" as a Chinese person, and he also picked up a hamburger and nibbled on it. After they picked up the burger, the scope of the stealth technique automatically spread to the burger, and from this point of view, it was also quite humane.

"Mia, are you hungry?"

“...... Uh, you guys eat...... I'm not very hungry. ”

In this case, Mia, who can be regarded as a "normal person", naturally can't raise any appetite.

"How's the luncheon going?, Lord Earl, to start an hour early!" said a servant's voice outside a small window.

"Ready to serve!"

"Okay, then I'll have someone come over right away! By the way, the food prepared for those soldiers should also be packed quickly, and the Earl will personally bring these things to those soldiers after the luncheon!"

"Roger!!"

After receiving the instructions, the chefs in the kitchen began to work. A young cooker came to the warming cabinet, took out the burgers one by one, wrapped them in paper, and placed them in a nearby cart.

The few that Ellie had already eaten were nothing in the total, so naturally it didn't make the cook suspicious.

In order not to reveal her traces, Ellie could only watch as the burgers on the warming cabinet were quickly wrapped by the cook, one by one, and thrown into the frame of the cart.

After the kitchen filled the cart and left, Ellie finally breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to get the burger again, but about half of the burgers on the shelf remained......

As long as there's more......

Ellie thought so, and suddenly, she felt someone grab her collar and pull back.

"You come back for me!!" Su Wen dragged Ellie aside and pointed to the second assistant chef who came over: "Don't fight the idea of this cabinet, someone is here!"

"Huh!" Ellie was very dissatisfied, but due to the situation, she could only lick her lips and savor the taste of the hamburger she had just eaten.

......

Regina almost made a circle around the entire area, stepping on all the places where the stun event occurred. Then, these places were projected on an imaginary map in my mind, and then connected again in the order of the timeline.

This kind of hypothetical reasoning may be very abstract to ordinary people, but for Regiana, it is a matter of hand.

"It's going around in circles...... However, this law is too easy to understand, why is the other party's anti-reconnaissance awareness so bad......"

Eventually, Regina stood outside a house, and then activated the magic on her wrist.

"Is this here!?"

Regina looked at the mansion in front of her with the name tag of "Count of Auschway", and showed a hint of surprise.

"Hmm......"

After standing there and thinking for a while, Regina took a step and walked through the door of the Duke's Palace.
