Chapter 17 Blizzard Castle 9
"Nonsense!" Charles shouted angrily to the housekeeper, "Shut her up in the confinement room!"

The butler took the order and immediately called two servants to drag Andrea away.

Andrea didn't understand why Charles suddenly flew into a rage, and wanted to struggle again: "Charles, you trust me..."

Before Andrea finished speaking, Charles waved his cane at Andrea.

Obviously, she didn't see how much Charles exerted, but Andrea passed out in an instant.

No one expected that Charles would suddenly attack.

Li Yu's eyes flashed.

After sending Andrea away, Charles looked at Emma, ​​who was kneeling beside her, and said sharply: "As a maid, Emma not only failed to fulfill her duties, but also encouraged the master to do bad things, so she was dragged to death. "

Emma's complexion changed drastically.

Why was it her turn to convict without even giving a chance to defend herself?
The two servants followed Charles' order to drag Emma out and stick her to death. Seeing that something was wrong, Emma immediately got up and wanted to escape, but just as she got up, the system punishment for failing the second task arrived.

Mission [-] Failure Punishment: Players who fail the mission will remain weak for ten hours.

Emma fell down limply as soon as she stood up, allowing the two servants to drag her away without any resistance.

Li Yu also received the system notification, but because her mission had been completed, the punishment did not affect her.

Li Yu glanced at the other three players. The climber Richard slumped on the chair with a weak face. His face was very bad. Obviously, his task was not completed.

Lawyer Thomas sat with a calm expression, obviously not affected by the state of weakness, and the task was successfully completed.

Randall still cynically reclined on the chair, seemingly the same as before, but if you observe carefully, you will find that he is enduring something. Obviously, the task was not completed and was punished by the system, but he is more capable than others. Pack.

After Li Yu thought about it for a while, he also showed a weak expression, pretending to be struggling, pretending that the task was not completed and was punished by the system.

Charles, the butler and other people in the castle did not feel any discomfort at Li Yu's sudden weakness, they only thought that Li Yu and the others were frightened by what had just happened.

"Charles, what happened to your face?" Li Yu had been paying attention to the scratch that suddenly appeared on Charles's face, and couldn't help asking worriedly at this moment.

Seeing Li Yu's worried eyes, Charles softened his face a bit: "It's okay, someone wanted to assassinate me last night, so I accidentally said it."

"What?" Li Yu was terrified, and staggered to Charles' side, carefully inspecting Charles' body, "Someone assassinated you? Are you okay? There are no other wounds, right?"

"It's okay." Charles broke free from Li Yu's hand and comforted him, "The assassin's skill is not very strong, except for the wound he touched due to carelessness, he didn't suffer any other injuries."

"It's fine if you don't have one." Only then did Li Yu feel relieved.

When no one noticed, Li Yu closed his eyes.

Like, so much alike, they are exactly the same!

This Charles, there is a problem.

"Where's the assassin? Have you caught it?" Randall suddenly asked with concern.

"The assassin didn't pay attention to let her escape," Charles said in a deep voice, "but don't worry, she was seriously injured, and it's such a snowy day outside, she can't escape far, I have already sent someone to arrest her."

"Oh, it's a pity to escape." Randall shook his head.

Charles looked at Randall with serious eyes: "Randall, why do you care so much about that assassin? Could it be that you sent him to assassinate me?"

Randall looked puzzled and yelled wronged: "Charles, I know that you have complaints against me because of the past, but you can't do that, right?"

"Sometimes it is said that I have an affair with your wife, and another moment it is said that I bought and murdered you. Am I such a person?"

"You know, if I want to do something, I'll do it openly and aboveboard. How can I do these dirty tricks? You're insulting me!" Randall accused angrily.

Charles stared at Randall for a while, before slowly uttering a few words: "Really? I hope so."

Randall stopped talking, obviously very angry.

"Last night, a few little mice sneaked into my castle and stole a lot of my treasures." Charles said in an unclear tone.

Li Yu obviously saw Richard flinch.

It could only be him and Erwin who stole the treasure of the castle, but it is not known who was discovered.

"It seems that a lot happened last night," Li Yu said.

"That's not it." Charles suddenly looked at Li Yu with unclear meaning, "The door lock of my study room was broken."

Li Yu looked surprised: "Didn't you lose anything?"

"I lost some things, but it doesn't matter, anyway, I already know who the thief is." Charles said arrogantly.

Sitting upright, Thomas froze.

Li Yu was silent.

This Charles, mysterious, looks like he knows everything, but he just doesn't reveal it. What does he want to do?
Or he doesn't know anything at all, just talking nonsense to deceive people?
At this time, the comparison is who is more calm.

"Ah!~" Suddenly there was a shrill scream outside the castle, and the scream came quickly and then stopped abruptly.

Everyone present knew that it was Emma, ​​one of the players, who was dragged to death.

Li Yu noticed that the two male servants who dragged Emma away quietly walked in through the gate of the castle. Both of them were more or less bright red. startled those present.

Emma was dead.

"There are so many things happening in the castle, and there are many uninvited guests. I hope you don't leave your room during non-dinner hours." Charles looked at everyone with a confused expression, "I will arrange people to search for the uninvited guests in the castle. Heeding the advice and going out of the room privately, and being executed as an uninvited guest, everyone can only consider themselves unlucky."

Richard and Thomas quickly agreed.

"Don't worry, Mr. Charles, I will definitely stay in the room obediently." Richard said, suppressing his discomfort.

He is currently being punished by the system for ten hours of weakness, so it is a good thing for him not to leave the room.

"Master Charles, I will not leave the room without permission." Thomas said seriously.

Li Yu glanced at Thomas. Dominic said that he was still in contact with a lawyer, but after entering the dungeon for so long, Thomas hadn't come to contact her. It seemed that only Dominic was related to the lawyer, not her.

Thomas' task two was completed, but the documents related to the "transfer agreement" and "inheritance" on the desk in the study were lost. This was probably done by Thomas, and it was Thomas' task to steal these documents.
