Phil was still thinking, and Song Nan also saw something wrong in the pile of books.
"Look, these books are all about medieval witchcraft knowledge. Judging from the traces on the books, the people who read them must be studying this thing seriously, not just flipping through it to kill time."
Annie and Phil came over to look. These books recorded a lot of strange witchcraft, and some of the materials used made people feel sick.
What about lizard gastric juice, snake gallbladder and other animal viscera, and occasionally there were patterns similar to magic circles.
Unlike Song Nan and Phil, Annie just glanced at it. She looked very carefully and scanned the part that seemed to be read the most by the owner from beginning to end.
Finally, her eyes fell on the page of materials for resurrection.
Before she could tell others about her guess, Bailey's voice suddenly came.
He found a key from the bookcase, but he didn't know which lock it was used to open.
Song Nan stepped forward and snatched the key. After taking a look, he turned around and observed the entire study room to see if there was any secret passage.
Phil and Annie also came forward to help, and searched all the places where things could be hidden, but they didn't find anything special.
Bailey was angry but dared not say anything, so he could only follow them and stare at Song Nan fiercely, thinking that once he got out, he would do everything he could to beat this woman to death, so that she would dare to be so arrogant in front of him.
Before they finished searching the study, Sol's voice suddenly sounded outside.
His voice was very loud, and everyone heard it as a reminder for them to retreat.
"Ah, I just think that I can see what the whole villa looks like from this position, and I'm curious. I'll go downstairs to eat in a while. Others? You don't need to call them, I'll call them..."
Sol blocked the stairs on the third floor, and Xie Qi stood a few steps lower than him.
Looking at Sol's sweaty face trying to stop him from going upstairs, Xie Qi smiled and said sympathetically: "Is that so? Then come down quickly after you've finished enjoying the show. The host doesn't like noise and hopes the guests can be quiet."
"Yeah, yeah, I see."
Sol's mind was elsewhere and he didn't understand what Xie Qi meant.
After he finished speaking, Xie Qi turned around and went downstairs, his hands on the handrail, and when he reached the second floor, he suddenly turned back and smiled at Sol.
This scared Sol, who wanted to look back to see if anyone else was coming out, and he waved at him with a stiff smile.
In his heart, Xie Qi commented that this police officer was really not cut out to be an actor, shrugged his shoulders, and went back to the kitchen on the first floor to prepare.
Seeing that the chef was gone, Sol let out a long sigh.
Others also heard that there was no sound outside and quietly came out of the study.
Anne spoke first: "It seems that Phil's guess was right. The chef gave us the key on purpose."
Her words startled Sol, wondering how she came to this conclusion.
"Didn't you hear? The chef just said the guests. He knew we were all on the third floor, but he didn't say it."
Phil answered, looking at Sol with some contempt.
"Let's go down first. The chef said we need to be quiet." Song Nan went downstairs first after saying this.
As they went down the stairs, Anne, who was at the back, suddenly turned around and looked at the huge portrait.
They had habitually ignored the painting when they went up and down the stairs these days, but Anne suddenly became interested in it, perhaps because she had just read Miss Custer's diary.
Although only the lower half of their faces were shown, it can be seen that the people in the Custer family are all good-looking, especially the golden hair, which shines brightly in the dim light.
Anne's doubts deepened. They had already gone through many rooms, but they didn't see a photo of Mrs. Custer. Didn't she take a photo after she got married?
When she saw the painting again, she felt familiar from the half face, and felt that the faces of this family were quite similar.
And it was also very similar to Mrs. Custer.
There were more and more mysteries, and Anne's eyes were deep. In front of her was Phil, who noticed that she was behind and turned to look at her.
Anne looked up and looked back, shook her head slightly, and Phil immediately turned back.
Sitting at the long table again, the six people had a very complicated mood this time.
After the morning game, they had deep doubts about the food they were given, but because there was no evidence and there was only one meal a day, except Anne who was still a vegetarian, everyone else had no appetite and could only force themselves to swallow it.
Xie Qi tilted his head and looked at the five people who looked like they were eating poison, with a distressed look on his face: "But the food doesn't suit your taste? Why do you look so uncomfortable?"
Seeing him look like he really didn't understandBailey and Sol all looked gloomy, and realized that this chef was really a psychopath, and he just liked to play tricks on them.
"Chef, can we also change to vegetarian food? Eating too much meat is a bit greasy."
Bailey raised his hand tremblingly, trying to fight for himself and change to less suspicious food.
Others also nodded quickly, and none of them wanted to eat this meal.
Seeing that his cooking was disliked, Xie Qi's smile slowly disappeared.
Just like rewinding, he immediately changed from a smiling face to an expressionless face, making everyone who saw him couldn't help but take a breath.
"Guests, are you dissatisfied with the food I made?"
His voice was calm, but it seemed to contain a storm that would sweep away anyone who disobeyed him.
Unexpectedly, just wanting to change the food angered this perverted chef.
Bailey quickly picked up the knife and fork, as if to prove that he didn't dislike it, he picked up the steak on the plate and started eating, praising the taste while eating, and occasionally spraying meat scraps from his mouth.
Phil, who was sitting next to him, dodged in disgust, hesitated for a moment, and started eating.
Seeing this, the others did not dare to resist. The silent atmosphere seemed to please Xie Qi, and he laughed again.
Staring at Bailey who was eating in a mess with satisfaction, Xie Qi asked with a bad taste how it tasted.
"Of course it's good, very good, I have never eaten such delicious food!"
"As long as the guests like it, this is my selected black pork. Not only is the meat firm, but it is also very fresh. You should not be able to eat it outside."
Listening to Xie Qi's words, Bailey nodded repeatedly, but did not take it to his mind, just thinking about asking him not to pay attention to himself.
After eating, Xie Qi disappeared in front of them again like the previous few days.
With something in their stomachs, the six people also had the strength to continue exploring.
They also had a key in their hands that they didn't know where to use. They had to find this place before nightfall, and then leave the villa to go to the farm.
