Chapter 4: Clues
If you follow what the guards recorded, there should be hangers today?
The player knows the information she doesn't know, the so-called "love castle" as literally explained? In other words, it has something to do with love? At the moment, it seems that players are also in each other's camps, wary of each other.
Even if you listen to the news, you can only wait for the opportunity.
If it is related to love, then the castle owner Tracey and David are the most suspicious, and of course, the cook and the doorman, they are also a couple. Akiri put down the dishes and chopsticks she had eaten and put them in the sink.
The probe looked out of the kitchen window, with a grove of trees behind it.
I heard from the cook that the doorman set a trap in the woods.
From this angle, she looked at this forest, and her heart suddenly moved, if he was in this forest, then, he could monitor his every move. Or maybe he's just spying on the cook.
Was it David or the doorman who knocked him unconscious in the morning? Is it trying to kill yourself, or is it just preventing yourself from seeing the register?
Qiu Li felt that since she knew that she was in the dungeon, she had a lot less awe of life, including the death of players and NPCs, which seemed to be just a piece of data, watching the fire from the other side, calm and abnormal.
However, this morning's stick really hurts, and I can't really treat the world blindly as data. After all, it's yourself who hurts.
She stared at the woods and continued to think.
Last night, Tracey said that David hadn't been back to the bedroom for a week, and the cook always looked disdainful when talking about the guard.
And since the crossing, I haven't met the weird doorman? This is absolutely unreasonable!
She rummaged through her memories, trying for a clue.
The cook's brisk voice came from behind him: "My dear Qiu Li, I'm here to get lunch." "Her lunch with the doorman was also prepared by Akiri.
Qiuli turned around and asked, "Has Mrs. eaten with Mr." ”
"Mrs. ate it, and Mr.'s share of Mrs. said to send it over in person! How loving are they? The cook sighed with some envy.
"Has sir been busy lately? I don't see anyone, have you seen him? ”
"Sir is doing experiments in the basement, and I haven't seen him for a long time, dear Qiuli, I'll go back first." After speaking, the cook lifted the lunch box and walked out.
Akiri turned around and continued to look at the woods, where insects chirped in the early summer and birds chirped from time to time. The cooks were gone, and there was still no one in the woods.
She walked up the stairs and looked down, the basement door was closed.
A gaze looked at her, and she looked up to see that it was the middle-aged male player.
He pretended to smile elegantly and walked briskly from the corner of the second floor: "My name is John, may I ask what you call it?" ”
"Hello John, my name is Akiri." Akiri showed a sincere expression.
"Are you looking at the basement? Is it looking for David? He asked.
"John, are you friends with your husband?" Qiu Li asked rhetorically?
"We're friends with Tracey, and naturally we're friends with David."
"Oh, Mr. hasn't been to the dining room lately, I'm a little worried, is my food not delicious?" Akiri sighed lightly.
John stared at her, turned his head to look at the basement door, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "Or, let's go to the basement and see him, you say?" Miss Akinashi. ”
Qiu Li's heart moved, but she still stood in place, her expression was a little cringe, and her voice was a little smaller: "I don't dare to go, since you are friends, or you will ask for me?" ”
John was stunned, looked at Qiu Li again, and nodded: "Okay, I'll take a look." ”
Downstairs, John knocked on the door, Akiri stood at the top of the stairs and looked over, and after half a ring, the door opened, and it was not David who opened the door, but Tracy.
She was a little surprised that John would be here: "Dear John, how are you?" Is there something going on? ”
"I haven't seen David come out to dine together, and the beautiful chef is a little worried about whether her food is not to the taste." John said politely.
Tracy raised her head to look at Qiu Li at the staircase, and a smile appeared on her face: "Don't worry, he just finished his meal and is very satisfied!" ”
After speaking, she looked at John apologetically: "David is still busy, so I won't invite you in." ”
John returned to the staircase, and the basement door closed again.
"Can you please come with me for a walk in the back garden? Today's meal was so delicious that I ate a little too much. With a smile on his lips, he invited Qiu Li.
"Yes, gladly."
The roses in the back garden are in full bloom, and the tall trees on both sides of the path shade the sun, making it cool on an early summer afternoon.
Along the way, Akiri and John test each other, and she can figure out the names of the remaining six people and where they come from.
Where they came from, Akiri didn't care, presumably it was also a false identity given by the game. But what John asked her about was noteworthy.
"I heard that David once had a confidante, Miss Akinashi, have you seen it?"
Qiu Li's thinking has been spinning around the existing relationship between men and women, and she didn't expect that there might be a third person.
Listening to him ask this, he really gave another way of thinking.
"I've heard of it too, but unfortunately I haven't." She replied in response to his question.
"Tracey seems to care about David?"
"Well, after all, we've only been married for a year!" This sentence was said almost without thinking about it, and Qiu Li was stunned for a moment, this should be the memory of the original body.
Or maybe that's what the game is about.
On the way back, at the junction of the garden and the woods, I met five other people, who seemed to be assigning tasks, and when they approached, their voices stopped.
Akiri and John were separated here. She went back to her cabin, and John met them.
Entering the hut, she looked through the window, and the group was still talking about something.
She quickly turned and walked out the door, heading straight for the second floor.
Now that they're all outside, it's just time for me to go and see where they live and see if there are any clues.
Just chatting and learning that John lives in 203 with another young blonde man, Lawrence, and he seems to be quite proactive, hoping to find clues in him.
As for opening the door, Qiu Li silently took out the spare key from her arms, all the sanitation in the castle was done by the cook, and the cook's spare key was placed in the kitchen, and she saw it a few days ago.
These days the guest has checked in, and at the request of the guest, the cleaning of the room has stopped, and the key has not been touched there.
Akiri, who has never done such a thing, finds that she has a talent for this, and her movements are smooth and neat. No wonder others say that it takes three years to learn well, and only three days to learn badly.
Room 203 is exactly the same as the interior of room 202 next door, but it is more messy inside, the bedding is piled up on the bed haphazardly, some dirty clothes are put on the back of the chair, the suitcase is opened, and it is placed on the coffee table, which is full of clothes.
She walked forward quickly, touched them one by one, found no props, found a small book from under the pillow, opened it and looked, this is the plot analysis written by the player, it was really timely rain, she quickly flipped through it.
They really know more about the plot than they do, but it's also limited, David's ex is called Emma, and she vaguely feels that this name is familiar.
There was a thunderclap outside, and she looked at the window, she was so engrossed in her notes that before she knew it, the rain had fallen.
Oops, the guests are definitely coming back after the rain.
There was a noise of footsteps in the hallway, and she looked around, but it was too late to get out......
