Chapter 340 Non-dungeon players
On the second floor, Xu Huo heard other guests returning to their rooms one after another. It was already past twelve o''clock, but the game did not give a second prompt, indicating that the instance should start when he arrived at the castle.
?However, the game does not indicate the number of participating players. The guests mentioned by the middle-aged butler plus the six he saw in the lobby add up to a total of twelve players.
??However, it does not mean that these twelve players are all participants in this instance.
The invitation from the cheongsam woman was different from the invitation from the dungeon player. When he entered the door, he gave the middle-aged housekeeper the invitation from the cheongsam woman. The other party did not express surprise or refuse. It can be seen that even if the dungeon is about to start, the castle will not Players are denied entry.
?This may be the characteristic of non-closed dungeons. Both non-dungeon players and dungeon players can enter the dungeon location before the time limit.
In this way, among the other eleven guests, there is a high probability that there are players holding black market invitations like him.
The second task of the dungeon is to decipher the truth behind the disappearance of the guests. If there are non-dungeon players sneaking in, this may be the truth or one of the truths.
The details will only be seen tomorrow, but by intercepting and killing the cheongsam woman in advance, he had an advantage.
In addition, the fact that the cheongsam woman was a wanted criminal was beyond her expectation. She originally thought that she was just an incompetent player wandering around the castle city, but she was not expected to be a wanted criminal. It was also a coincidence that he learned how to escape the punishment of absent dungeons, and sure enough, she was a wanted criminal. A perfect system will also have loopholes to exploit, which is surprisingly good news.
??Xu Huo touched the "Umbrella of Justice" at his hand, and suddenly felt that he was being watched by a gaze. He turned his head and looked out the window, and saw a pair of scarlet eyes passing by quickly.
After waiting for a few seconds and nothing happened, he opened the window and walked to the terrace. The pair of peeping eyes had disappeared. Instead, there was a human head on the window sill, with long hair floating outside. The face was facing his direction and the eyes were staring. Staring at him.
Not any of the players who were in the lobby just now.
Seeing that the other party maintained this posture and stretched out a hand to comb his long hair, Xu Huo closed the window expressionlessly.
The night was uneventful, and the next morning, he met all the players in the restaurant.
The couple surnamed Ma, two men and one woman in the entertainment room, six people in the hall yesterday.
??The couple seemed to have a good relationship, feeding each other as if no one else was watching, but the man seemed to have a bad temper.
?The three people in the entertainment room include a tall and thin middle-aged man, a sturdy man with a sturdy back, and the long-haired woman who had her hair dry last night.
Among the six people in the hall, there were a pair of twin brothers, a gentle young woman, and a baby-faced man in the car with him. He was talking to a handsome young man next to him, and beside the young man was a silent black-faced man. When he looked at the other person, the other person also looked at him and nodded slightly.
Xu Huo turned away coldly.
At this time, the middle-aged housekeeper came over and ventriloquised: "Please wait a moment, breakfast will be ready soon."
“Mr. He hasn’t gotten up yet?” the elegant woman asked.
"My husband is in poor health and usually has breakfast in his room. He asked me to apologize on his behalf. Although the music appreciation event lasts for five days, my husband is not physically strong enough to accompany me all the time. So during the rest of the time, you can enjoy visiting the castle." "The steward said: "He will have dinner with everyone tonight."
This copy is slightly different from the previous ones. It does not give a complete story background. The game only prompts them to enter the castle according to the specified time, but does not say what they are here to do. The "purpose" of their trip is only revealed at this time. Spoken from the steward''s mouth.
The players exchanged glances, and Mrs. Ma asked: "What are the places worth visiting in the castle?"
"As you can see, there are two large gardens in front of the castle. Now is the season when rose flowers are in bloom. Guests who like flowers can go there to view them and are welcome to pick them."?Behind the main building is a botanical garden, which is planted with flowers from Special plants from different worlds, suitable for rest and leisure, and the air is also good. ”
“The atrium is a garden maze that occupies a large area and can be seen from the second floor of the main building. However, please do not enter at will without someone to guide you, as it is easy to get lost.”
Hearing what the butler said, Xu Huo glanced at the servant who was carefully wiping the decorations next to him. After sitting down at the dining table, he asked, "Can I visit the rooms in the castle?"
"Of course." The steward said: "There are three entertainment rooms, a piano room, a painting studio on the second floor, and a large study room at the end. Everything in it can be used by everyone."
“Where will the music appreciation party be held?” the sturdy man asked impatiently.
“It’s in the small concert hall on the third floor.” The butler answered every question, “But I don’t want you to go up to the third floor without your invitation.”
It seems that the third floor is a key place.
?Speaking of missing guests, the most suspicious ones are definitely the people in the castle, and the owner of the castle is the most suspicious.
The players understood each other tacitly. At this time, the busy servant brought the breakfast. The long-haired woman threw the spoon away after taking two sips. She covered her mouth and said with an ugly face: "There are spiders in the soup!"
??The dark-faced man sitting next to her picked up the soup plate, and sure enough, there was a small black spider that had been boiled to death.
“What’s going on in this castle? I saw a spider in the bedroom yesterday. Forget it, there are even spiders in the food. Is this how you treat guests?” the elegant woman raised her voice and asked the servant.
The servant apologized profusely and said: "I will change it for the lady immediately."
“No need!” The elegant woman looked disgusted, “Who can drink a pot of spider soup?”
This sentence made everyone else give up their soup plates, and the young player and the long-haired woman left the table.
Xu Huo stirred in the soup plate, but he didn''t see any spiders. However, he also discovered that there were spiders hanging in many corners of the castle. When he came out of the room just now, he saw the servants deliberately avoiding them when they were cleaning. Spider silk.
"You must be the last one to come." Mrs. Ma suddenly looked at him with a smile, her eyes like hooks.
Both husband and wife stared at him, but with completely opposite expressions.
Xu Huo didn''t say anything. He threw a table knife at Mrs. Ma''s hand that was reaching for the black umbrella. The blade was firmly planted in front of her finger, which made her retract her hand and turned back to press Mr. Ma who stood up suddenly. "Don''t make trouble, we are guests."
Mr. Ma''s eyes bulged and he stared at Xu Huo. Mrs. Ma persuaded him for a while before she succeeded in comforting him. She put her hands on her husband''s shoulders, but her eyes lingered on Xu Huo''s face, "I like to have a cold face." Enthusiastic young man.”
After speaking, he even winked.
Mr. Ma kissed the back of her hand and said, "Behave yourself. I can wear any hat, just not a cuckold."
After hearing what he said, Mrs. Ma looked away, and the couple became disgusted again.
