Chapter 144: [Lady in Black] Abandoned kitchen
", what did this little master encounter, weird and scary?"
"You can't ...... It's ma'am, right? β
ββ¦β¦ Although the lady is very repulsive to us outsiders, how can it be said that it is also the mother of the little master, as the saying goes, the tiger poison does not eat children, it has no reason to make a move on the little master, right? β
It is not difficult to see from some obscure titles and information given by the housekeeper before that the relationship between the little master and the lady is indeed a mother-son relationship.
So Madame went to hunt the little master, and this thing seemed unlikely.
"Could it be...... Is it a housekeeper? β
In Ning Qiushui's mind, such an idea suddenly popped up.
Not long ago, when he asked the butler where the little master had gone, the butler's reply was quite meaningful.
If you experience it carefully, it seems that the housekeeper is also looking for the little master...... And it's been looking for a long time!
Ning Qiushui couldn't help but set his eyes on the little master's seventh painting.
Looking at those black arms and miserable white hands, a picture suddenly appeared in Ning Qiushui's mind that made him a little creepy!
That's when they eatβ
The butler in a black suit always wears a pair of white gloves when he pushes the dining cart over!
Don't...... The black shadow who wants to kill the little master is really the steward of the castle?
Why did he do that?
"But when it comes to the lady and the little master, I think of something else......"
Su Xiaoxiao clasped her hands on her chest and paced lightly in the corridor.
Ning and Jun looked at him.
"What do you think?"
Su Xiaoxiao slowed down her pace and asked a very normal question that they ignored:
"If there is both a 'mother' and a 'child' in this castle, where is the 'father'?"
His question made Ning and Jun react violently!
"yes......"
"If you have a mother and a child, you must have a father, but the housekeeper of this castle never seems to have mentioned anything about the little master's father......"
Jun Luyuan muttered to himself, his eyes becoming sharper and sharper as he pondered this question seriously.
Without a father, how does a mother give birth to a child?
But if there is a father, where is he now?
Why didn't the housekeeper say a word about the little master's father?
As the crowd explored the castle, instead of solving the doubts in their hearts, they became more and more confused.
These questions, like a whisk, make their brains into a pulp.
"Let's go back first!"
Ning Qiushui said.
The longer they stayed in this hallway, the more they felt the lingering chill grow in their bodies.
No one knows if anything terrible will happen if they continue to stay......
Anyway, they basically remembered the content of the drawing.
When leaving, Ning Qiushui deliberately glanced at one of the paintings.
This is a painting with a clear pattern behind the door of the previous room.
He still felt ...... Something is not quite right.
There seems to be a special detail that he has overlooked.
After a moment of silence, Ning Qiushui shook his head and followed the two back to the hall of the ancient castle.
At this time, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.
Everyone waited for a while, and Guangyong and Wen Tianya walked back in another corridor.
These people's faces are not good-looking.
Moreover, Ning Qiushui and a few people noticed that among these people who came back...... One less.
"What's going on?"
"Why is there one person missing?"
Su Xiaoxiao yawned, he was a little sleepy waiting for these people.
Guangyong sat aside with an ugly face.
"Something happened in the middle, someone suddenly disappeared......"
Hearing the word missing, Su Xiaoxiao's expressions changed slightly.
Missing again!
It's only the next day, and three of them have disappeared inexplicably!
"What kind of expressions do you have...... What, you've got some missing, too? β
Wen Tingya frowned.
She counted it and found that there were only five people left in Ning Qiushui's team.
"Yes."
Su nodded slightly.
"When we went to the third floor, Pang Yunyuan also disappeared in a room."
"There was no sign of destruction in the doors and windows of that room, no secret passages, nothing, it was as if he had evaporated inside......"
Su Xiaoxiao's voice fell, and everyone's faces were a little ugly.
They all already felt how strange the world inside this bloody door was!
A big living person at a good end, he disappears when he says he disappears......
If you are killed by a terrifying unknown being like the lady in black, you will have a corpse left!
Where did the people who suddenly disappeared in the castle go?
"Any clues on the third floor?"
The atmosphere was a little heavy, and Guangyong opened his mouth to ask Su Xiaoxiao.
"There are no useful clues, the corridor to the east is full of self-portraits of the Lady in Black, and as we get closer, the portrait of the Lady in Black will stare at us and start seeping water......"
"Immediately afterwards, the lady in black, who was supposed to pray in the church, climbed in through the window!"
"If Brother Qiushui hadn't broken the ghost wall in time, I guess we would all have to die on the third floor!"
"There should be an important secret in that place, but we'll have to find a way to get in tomorrow......"
Su Xiaoxiao didn't hide these things.
Because there is no point in hiding these things.
If he gets any important clues, he might hide them and find a way to get benefits from others.
But the problem now is that the castle is more strange than they imagined.
After almost two days of delay here, instead of getting any important clues, they also left a lot of puzzles!
"What about you?"
Guangyong sighed.
"We searched everywhere we could on the first floor of the castle, but we didn't see the housekeeper, and then we went to the kitchen again......"
Speaking of this, Guangyong's face became a little gloomy.
ββ¦β¦ That kitchen hasn't been used at all, at least not in the last few months! β
"It's all dusty, the water inside the pipes is brown with rust stains, rats, cobwebs everywhere......"
"There are no people in this castle at all, and the things that are given to us to eat are not made in the kitchen......"
His words made Ning Qiushui and the others stunned.
", the next day is almost over, we haven't got any useful information, and we haven't got six more people yet......"
The skinny man who had identified Ning Qiushui before kicked the wall and cursed in a low voice.
His expression was already a little distorted.
Obviously, in the process of searching for the butler just now, he had encountered some terrible things.
After everyone was silent for a while, Ning Qiushui slowly spoke again, saying a fact that made them even more uncomfortable:
"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing I didn't tell you......"
"In five days, it's not this castle that we're leaving...... It's the manor. β
"We now have three issues that need to be addressed urgentlyβ"
"First, where is the gate of the manor?"
"Second, how are we going to leave the castle and get to the gates of the manor without getting wet?"
"Third, how did you get the key to open the gate of the manor?"
pS: There may be three more shifts in the evening.
There are at least two more more.
Finish before 9 o'clock.
