Global recovery: A century of being stuck in the game

Tao Yao frowned slightly.

Did he hear it but was afraid to come out, or did he really not hear it and so was not woken up?

Whether it is the former or the latter, it is not a good thing for Taoyao.

But since no one in the villa took any action, she naturally wouldn't go out and wander around.

Pulling the curtains back, she lay back down on the bed and went to sleep.

This time it was a peaceful night with no further incidents.

The next day, Taoyao was awakened by a scream.

"Ah!! Someone is dead!"

The sharp female voice suddenly made the surrounding area lively and everyone gathered over.

Taoyao also opened the door and followed.

It was not far from her residence, just two doors away. I smelled blood before I got close. When I got closer, I saw that the front gate was already surrounded by people.

"What's going on? Why did someone die suddenly?"

"No... I don't know... When I woke up, I found that she was dead. What should I do... Is there a ghost? I live with her, will I be the next one?"

The maid who lived with the deceased kept shaking her head, her face full of fear, and at the end she covered her face with her hands and sobbed, looking so pitiful.

"Let's go find the housekeeper first..." someone suggested.

"Yes, we have to bury the person."

Soon someone trotted away to look for someone.

How could such a big thing be kept secret?

But the young lady is still too young. Wouldn’t it be scary to ask her to do such a bloody thing?

Besides, the housekeeper is in charge of them, so it is right to find a housekeeper.

Because someone left, Tao Yao squeezed forward and happened to see the scene inside.

It was a standard double room with two beds, one on each side of the door.

A man was huddled beside the bed, holding his head with his hands, trembling all over. It was obvious that he was terribly frightened.

The other was lying on the bed with his eyes closed and his face covered in blood, obviously dead.

He died peacefully. The only good thing was that he did not suffer any torture before his death.

Sometimes, such a peaceful death is much more fortunate than living.

No one else dared to go in and they all gathered at the door.

Tao Yao wanted to go in and check the cause of death of the person inside, but she was a cook and was not liked by the housekeeper. If she behaved too abnormally at this moment, she might be targeted again.

So she just played the role of a spectator.

Scared but curious at the same time.

Soon, someone came.

"Give me a moment, give me a moment!"

A loud male voice was heard from behind. The people surrounding the door looked back and then quickly moved to the sides to make room for the middle road.

The butler is here.

He said nothing, looked serious, and did not ask the people around him what happened.

Because the person who went to report the news just now said on the way that someone had died.

He walked straight to the bed, lifted the quilt to take a look, then immediately covered it again, then waved his hand: "Carry the person away!"

The two male servants who came with the butler carried the man away on a stretcher.

The butler came quickly and left even faster, as if he was in a hurry. He didn't explain anything, but just said, "Everyone please go away first. I will find out the murderer as soon as possible. Also, the distinguished guests that the gentleman is inviting will be here soon. I advise you all to be careful and don't cause any more trouble for me!"

Then he left without caring about everyone's expressions.

For a moment, everyone looked at each other in confusion, and then they dispersed without saying anything.

Even the woman who was squatting there crying stood up.

Just now the housekeeper was clearly warning them not to cause trouble!

Everyone else left, so Taoyao certainly didn't stay long.

But she still noticed those people's faces.

The butler's words just now seemed to be a warning, but in fact they revealed a piece of information.

That is, the butler knew what kind of person was the one who committed the murder, so he said such words.

Rather than a warning, it's more like... a notification?

Hmm? Notice?

Something flashed through her mind quickly and Tao Yao narrowed her eyes.

In other words, in the housekeeper's opinion, the murderer was right in the middle of this group of people.

However, when the housekeeper lifted the quilt just now, his entire body perfectly blocked the view behind him, so she couldn't see what the man's wound looked like.

It is not known how the deceased died.

This needs further investigation.

And judging from the butler's attitude, he might be hiding for the murderer in secret.

Otherwise, how could they take the body away so quickly?

It’s a pity that Xu Ya is still too young, and this kind of thing shouldn’t be her business, otherwise Tao Yao would really go to Xu Ya to say something.

The farce of the morning ended just like that.

Taoyao had nothing else to do but to cook.

The maid was waiting outside the door. When she saw Tao Yao, she waved at her and seemed to be in a good mood.

This may be because they don't know someone died last night, so they are so happy.

Tao Yao walked up quickly and opened the door: "Get ready to cook."

The maid came up and said flatteringly, "Yaoyao, can you let me serve the meal to the young lady later?"

The main thing is to deliver food to the ladies. The ladies will be very happy and may give you something as a reward.

That's why she was thinking about this position.

Tao Yao did not refuse this. She also didn't want to run back and forth every day to deliver meals to people. It was too tiring.

She just made a simple breakfast, a pot of fragrant porridge, and fried some beans, meat and spicy potatoes, then turned off the fire.

He asked the maid to take away the things that had just been prepared for Xu Ya.

The maid looked at the things on the dining cart and raised her head: "Where's the dessert?"

The eldest lady’s favorite thing is dessert. There is no dessert this time. Will she be beaten if she goes?

Tao Yao shook her head: "No."

Because she wasted some time watching the fun, she didn't have time to prepare dessert.

Hearing this, the maid suddenly became anxious: "How can this be? The eldest lady likes the desserts you make the most. She even asked me to make more today. How can you not make some? Go and make them now! Go!"

Seeing that Tao Yao was unmoved and standing there motionless, the maid could not help but urge her again and again.

Tao Yao glanced at her and said, "Don't forget that I am the cook and you are just a helper."

The maid, who was full of dissatisfaction, suddenly shut up and looked at Tao Yao with some fear.

Because at this moment she suddenly became so scary that the maid dared not say anything.

Tao Yao: "Don't worry, give the things to the young lady and say it's noon."

Because at this moment she suddenly became so scary that the maid dared not say anything.

Tao Yao: "Don't worry, give the things to the young lady and say it's noon."

Because at this moment she suddenly became so scary that the maid dared not say anything.

Tao Yao: "Don't worry, give the things to the young lady and say it's noon."
