Chapter 173: 177: Death

"Damn, what the hell is Camilla doing in the room!" Rob cursed and turned the door lock of the room, making the sound of gears turning in the dark corridor.

Eric clicked his tongue irritably, "Rob, can you do it? If you can't, just get up and let August smash the door down."

Of course, Rob's thin shoulders couldn't bear the force of the impact. He couldn't call Camilla, so he had to hold back his anger and give up his position, telling August to knock open Camilla's door like he did in the morning.

The old wooden door panel couldn't withstand August's impact, and it lay precariously on the floor, making a bang.

With the experience of the morning, Ma Haohao hid aside from the president with great foresight, so as not to be splashed on his face by the dust in the air.

The loud sound of the door panel falling echoed in my ears, and there was a shocking echo in the empty castle.

"Camilla? Are you there, Camilla?" Tiger carefully called out Camilla's name by shining the flashlight.

There was silence in the room, only Tiger's trembling voice wandered around.

Vera couldn't bear his timid appearance, so she pushed his shoulders away, and turned the light of the flashlight directly on the big bed in the room.

The darkness blurred the sight of the crowd, only a raised human figure could be seen on the big bed, and Camilla was lying unconscious on the big snow-white bed.

Rob walked towards Camilla first, cursing and saying non-stop: "Camilla, now is not the time to lose your temper! Did you hear me, get up from the bed!"

Tiger whispered on the side, "Rob, maybe you should be gentle. Camilla didn't do it on purpose, she just fell asleep..."

"Asleep? Who would a normal person go to sleep at the meeting time?"

Rob waved Tiger's hand away, lifted the quilt from Camilla's body, and was about to drag her out of the quilt. "Tiger, you don't need to say any more, she did it on purpose! Camilla, you—"

Driven by Rob's strength, Camilla turned over from the direction facing the wall, and faced the ceiling of the room with her eyes open.

Rob's grip on her wrist froze, and the cursing stopped abruptly.His pause was too sudden, and his voice seemed to be cut off by something.

"Rob...?"

Tiger, who was standing behind him, was blocked from seeing, and tugged at his clothes suspiciously.

Rob, however, was frightened and took a few steps backwards indiscriminately.Because he retreated too fast, his feet were unstable and he sat directly on the ground: "She...Camilla, she..."

He raised his hand tremblingly, turned his head and didn't dare to look directly at Camilla, and there was a weak cry in his voice.

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and Camilla, who was lying on the bed, opened her round eyes and looked at the ceiling without blinking.There was a pleasant smile at the corner of her mouth, and her chest and fingers were covered with colorful gems, and she became a stiff corpse under the shroud of jewels.

"No——Camilla, it's not true!" Tiger threw himself on the head of Camilla's bed, shaking Camilla's arm, trying to wake her up from the embrace of death.

"Camilla! Camilla, you can't die!" His tears wet the white sheets, mixed with the sound of sniffling, knocking the fact of death on everyone's hearts.

Augus stared blankly at Camilla, at Tiger, and at the silent members in the room: "Who knows what happened? Why did Camilla die in the room?"

His words made everyone recover from the shadow of death, and Tiger shouted at the others like a roar: "What else could be going on! One of you killed Camilla!"

"Kill, kill?"

Ogus was shocked by his stern expression, and looked back at the silent members in disbelief: "It can't be true what Tiger said?"

Rob had already calmed down, and when he heard this, he interrupted Ogus's question sternly, "How can it be true? Camilla died from taking too much medicine!"

"That's not necessarily the case. I think what Tiger said is also reasonable." Eric has always watched the excitement without taking too much trouble, and fought with Rob.

"You are so eager to deny it, so you can't be the murderer, right? Rob?"

Rob's face darkened, with a warning in his eyes: "Eric, shut up your stinking mouth. How could I kill Camilla?!"

"Who can say for sure about this kind of thing? Before you show evidence, I have the right to doubt the possibility of your murder."

"All right!"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel forever, Vera stood up to stop the argument between the two, "Until the truth is found out, everyone in this castle is suspect. Eric's words also have some truth Instead of thinking about denying it, it is better to show evidence to prove yourself."

After she finished speaking, she walked forward and went to Tiger's side to check Camilla's body.

Camilla's body was wearing a silk nightgown that was loose, revealing the dark purple marks on her chest.

Around her neck was a heavy pearl necklace, which was very different from her slender neck.There is no doubt that if she could stand up with these necklaces, the pearls around her neck would weigh her down.

Vera swiped the flashlight from Camilla's head to her fingers, and those slender fingers were also covered with rings full of gemstones, reflecting her gray skin, revealing a decaying atmosphere.

Mahao made a lot of determination to go to Vera's side and investigate the process of Camilla's death with her.

The ghosts in the castle started to act. The Christmas Eve on the first day was just an accident, and new members died almost every day in the following days.

Camilla's death may be a breakthrough, making others aware of the existence of the ghost of the castle.

Ma Haohao's eyes fell on Camilla's nightgown, which was a dark golden silk gown with layers of lace on the chest and skirt.

She seems to have seen this dress somewhere...

By the way, there are several clothes of the same material in the hostess' bedroom!Although the clothes were of different colors, they were all decorated with lace without exception.

The clothes Camilla is wearing belong to the mistress of the castle?
Couldn't the ghost in the castle be the mistress?Was Camilla killed first because she wore her clothes and used her jewelry?
Mahao continued to observe Camilla's body, as if to verify her conjecture, and the same symptoms appeared in places where Camilla wore jewelry.

"Vera, look at the part of Camilla wearing the ring and the necklace around her neck." Mahao reminded, "It seems that there are traces of corrosion on it."

"Indeed." Vera brought the flashlight closer, bent down to touch the ring on Camilla's finger.

Camilla's fingers were too thin, and the rings were only vainly placed on her hands.

Vera touched it lightly, and one of the emerald rings slipped from Camilla's little finger.

And as the ring slipped, Camilla's little finger fell from her palm together, making a soft "click" sound on the floor.
