"What the hell is this job that Anthony guy is responsible for?" Xu Shuo muttered and complained as he walked along the avenue towards the depths of the manor.

Previously, Xu Shuo and Anthony reached an agreement to let Anthony assist in the investigation of the masked man, and in exchange, Xu Shuo himself was to complete Anthony's work while Anthony was away.

One of the jobs is to patrol the estate, covering the entire estate, and Anthony is on the night shift.

"Well, if only I knew where I could borrow a lantern."

This world has not yet developed power technology, so there is not even a street lamp in the manor, and at night, except for the place where people live, the rest of the place is dark everywhere, and in the absence of a lantern, Xu Shuo can only see the road by the faint moonlight.

It stands to reason that he should be the only one who patrols the night, but Xu Shuo didn't see anyone else on the road, and he could only see two housekeepers guarding the door when he passed by the main gate.

"Hello, hard work!"

Xu Shuo greeted the two housekeepers on a whim, but as soon as the other party saw that it was him, they all turned their heads as if they hadn't heard.

Xu Shuo was bored with himself, so he had to shrug his shoulders and continue to patrol his Luo.

This work is not boring, he has lived here for so many days, he has not visited the manor once, many places he has not been to yet, so he has the right to visit, but unfortunately the surroundings are pitch black, and what can be seen is really limited.

On the way, he found a fruit grove surrounded by a fence, the forest area is not large, only a few dozen square meters, there are dozens of trees full of fruit, those fruits look like plums, as for what color is not clear because it is dark, but there is a sweet fragrance. The branches of one of the trees reached out of the fence, and a few fruits hung above Xu Shuo's head.

Xu Shuo happened to be a little thirsty, he looked at the few fruits that emitted an attractive aroma, and hesitated.

"Oh? Wen Ke's family actually has a blue source fruit, which is a good thing, eating one can probably restore about 50 blue amount, and the magic potion sold on the market is made by refining this fruit and combining it with some other condiments. Angela's voice rang in Xu Shuo's mind.

(Does this fruit still have this effect?) ）

Xu Shuo carefully looked at the fruit on the top of his head and swallowed his saliva unconsciously.

"Take it if you want to eat it, depending on your relationship with Lilian, it's okay to eat a few of her, but don't eat too much at once, you'll be poisoned by magic." Angela said.

(Eh, is it toxic?) ）

"It's not that the fruit is poisonous." Angela explained: "It's magic poisoning, generally speaking, the magic power that the human body can absorb in a short period of time is limited, and if you ingest too much magic power at once, you will be poisoned. It's like eating too much watermelon at once makes your stomach hurt. ”

(I see...... Then I'll take one and try it, and I'll talk to Lilien tomorrow. ）

Xu Shuo raised his hand to pick a blue source fruit, and found that the fruit was quite soft when he pinched it, and when he took a bite, the juice overflowed, the taste was like a ripe tomato, the flesh was soft and juicy, and the taste was a little like a blueberry, sweet with a little sour. After eating it for a while, Xu Shuo felt a stream of heat swimming in his body, presumably it was Lan Yuanguo who began to replenish the magic power in his body, it just so happened that he had just used the skill not long ago, and the magic value was not yet full.

While gnawing on the fruit, he continued to walk towards the depths of the manor, along the way Xu Shuo also saw a small cowshed and a chicken house, these animals are estimated to be raised as ingredients, Xu Shuo can't help but sigh again that it is good to be rich, and the food is all fresh ingredients raised by himself.

The deeper you go, the fewer buildings there are, and there are no people on the road, and you can't even see the houses with lights on as you walk, which is really creepy.

Xu Shuo didn't know much about the way, but he wanted to walk around the edge of the manor, and he could always go back to the gate.

After walking like this for a while, Xu Shuo suddenly began to feel a little familiar around him, and then he soon saw the pavilion where the housekeepers and maids were hiding from the rain before the funeral began.

(So, a little bit further is the cemetery...... ）

Xu Shuo instinctively reluctantly reluctantly approached that place, especially at night, although he has always been a materialistic youth who firmly believes in materialism, and has never believed in ghosts, but the proximity to the cemetery at night still makes him feel a little uncomfortable. And think that since there are gods in this world, ghosts may also exist.

Xu Shuo shook his head, threw out the messy thoughts, and continued to walk forward.

(I didn't do anything wrong, nothing to be afraid of.) ）

After a few steps, Xu Shuo saw the shadow of the iron railing of the cemetery in the distance, but when he got a little closer to the cemetery, he heard some strange sounds—it sounded like a woman eating and laughing.

Xu Shuo's steps froze, and he froze in place, he was a little sleepy when he was walking at night, but he suddenly woke up at this moment.

(What sound?) ）

Xu Shuo held his breath and listened carefully, but he didn't seem to hear anything.

(Delusion...... ）

He sighed, laughing at himself in his heart for being too careful, and continued to walk forward with a sigh of relief.

But he didn't take two steps Xu Shuo froze again, because the voice sounded again, this time Xu Shuo heard it very clearly, it was a girl's laughter, it sounded soft, from time to time, and the sound came from the direction of the cemetery.

(Really?) This...... No, it must have been a young maid and a housekeeper who had come to the cemetery to cheat. ）

Xu Shuo comforted himself in his heart, although cheating in the cemetery seems too unemotional, it is not impossible, after all, this place is the most sparsely populated, and it is a good place to cheat.

But having said that, Xu Shuo couldn't help but lighten his pace.

Step by step, he approached the cemetery, his heart pounding violently before he knew it.

Who the hell is it? Damn, if I find out if a stinky couple is flirting here, I'm going to arrest you and report it to your boss! Xu Shuo was angry from fear, and couldn't help but scold the person who made the voice in his heart.

The closer I got to the cemetery, the clearer the voice became, not just laughter, but also whispers from time to time.

Xu Shuo really regretted why he was joking with President Mei at this time, if it weren't for that, he wouldn't even have a usable weapon now, in the current situation, if there is a weapon, he will feel much more at ease, you must know that the thief profession, almost all offensive skills are used with weapons.

Closer, closer, take a step, take another step, and the iron railing of the cemetery is in front of you.

At this time, Xu Shuo stepped on something soft, he looked down, and the scene in front of him made him stop breathing.

It was a uniformed butler who fell to the ground with his back to the sky, with a lantern that had been extinguished, and it seemed that this person was the other person who was in charge of the night patrol tonight.

Xu Shuo could only blink wildly at this sudden scene.

(Little couple cheating...... Should...... Don't put down the night watchman...... Right? ）

Xu Shuo swallowed, the sound of his throat rolling seemed too loud in this silent night.

"Another one?" A cold voice in the cemetery said.

Xu Shuo was shocked, and immediately fell on the butler's body with the fastest and lightest movements, in the same posture as the butler who fell to the ground, and used one of the most basic skills of the thief department.
