I Rely On Poverty To Sweep Through Survival Games
Chapter 36 Edmund
"You..." The female housekeeper who was stepped on the ground just spat out two words with difficulty, but she didn't want Wang Ke to increase the strength on her feet again and trampled her words back.
This is simply a cruel and inhuman scene. The lady living alone is attacked by an uninvited guest who suddenly visits in the middle of the night, and no one onlookers lends a helping hand. Whether it is the depravity of human nature or the indifference of society.
It's a pity that the group of sticks in front of her has no sympathy for her situation. After all, the housekeeper has been in a state of watching the show from the beginning, and is very happy to see the players fail to pass the level.
"If you have any questions, just ask." Wang Ke looked like a bully who bullied the weak in the legend. He waved to the door expressionlessly, signaling Xiao Lan and the others to come in.
Wang Teddy glanced at the butler who could no longer maintain his original rigidity on the ground, knelt down and asked, "What will happen tomorrow night?"
The housekeeper just gave him a hard look, but her mouth was tightly shut, completely ignoring Wang Teddy's question.
Seeing this, Wang Ke gave her another kick, but the housekeeper snorted but still didn't speak, looking very stubborn.
Wang Ke frowned.
In an instant, the blood-red long knife he had seen before appeared in his hand.The cold light of the knife appeared in front of the housekeeper when she was unprepared, and the tip of the knife was only a few millimeters away from her eyeballs.She could already feel the cold texture of the weapon, and there was a faint pain on her skin.
The housekeeper gasped. She never expected that these guys would dare to be so presumptuous. Aren't they afraid of being blamed by Mrs. Bella?
The housekeeper tried to calm down and said, "Tomorrow... there will be an important event in the manor."
But it completely avoided the point that the player wanted to know.
Wang Ke gently turned the tip of the knife: "I can give you another chance."
This slight change was extremely obvious in the housekeeper's eyes. She trembled all over and tried to restrain herself. She didn't want to put her eyes on the tip of the knife because of her mistake.
After being tangled between Mrs. Bella's punishment and the murderer who seemed to be ready to attack immediately, the housekeeper said with difficulty: "Tomorrow is the night of the full moon, when the time comes... Ma'am..."
She hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Wang Ke who was stepping on her expressionlessly, and continued: "Madam will start the sacrificial ceremony, which will be presided over by her personally, and the sacrifices will be... her suitors."
That's the role of the players.
Xiao Lan asked: "If she invites men to the manor just to offer sacrifices, does this happen once a month?"
"Yes..." the housekeeper sighed, once it started, it would not be difficult to continue, "Madame invited many men to the manor to confirm the most important sacrifice. She will choose among you One of the best, as the last and most precious sacrifice."
Xiao Lan asked: "Who is the object of the sacrifice?"
"I don't know." The steward said with difficulty, "When the sacrifice is made, no one else will be present except the wife and the sacrifice. We have never been allowed to know the details of the sacrifice ceremony."
"She didn't lie." Wang Teddy shook the green polygraph tool in his hand and said.
Xiao Lan continued to ask questions that interested her: "Do you know Annie?"
The housekeeper said: "She is Mrs. Bella's sister, but I have never seen her. She passed away before I entered the manor to work."
Xiao Lan: "How long have you been in the manor?"
The housekeeper replied: "30 years."
Xiao Lan: "Is there anyone here with seniority older than you?"
Housekeeper: "Not anymore. When I came to the manor, there were no servants here. The servants who came in later came to work under my arrangement."
"Then do you know about Mrs. Bella's husband?" Xiao Lan asked.
The housekeeper replied self-destructively: "Yes, Madam used to have a husband. His name was Edmund. He disappeared more than 20 years ago. Before he disappeared, he often stayed in the piano room all day and never came out, and he hardly saw Madam. .”
Xiao Lan: "Have you met other members of this family?"
Housekeeper: "No, since I came here, there has been only Mrs. Bella."
It seems that the only one who is most likely to know the truth of the year is the missing husband. The other servants who may know the truth were either sacrificed or disposed of by Mrs. Bella later.
The key to leaving the manor probably lies in this Edmund.
Xiao Lan stood up: "One last question, where is the piano room?"
The housekeeper was almost numb from being trampled on: "The third floor, the room at the far end on the east side, has been sealed up now."
Seeing that Xiao Lan had finished asking questions, Wang Ke moved his foot away and gave Wang Teddy a look.
Wang Teddy understood in seconds, and took out a long conch-shaped prop. He tapped on the prop, and the housekeeper's voice came from inside: "Tomorrow is the night of the full moon, when the time comes... madam..."
The housekeeper's eyes widened suddenly: "This, this...you!!"
Wang Teddy shook the conch in his hand: "Happy cooperation, ma'am. You don't want to know what Madam Bella's expression will be after hearing this, do you?"
The housekeeper trembled: "I won't say, say it."
She just sat on the ground like this, watching these unreasonable bastards walk away, and even the smiling, handsome, and most polite guy took all the floor plans of the manor on her desk.
It's simply unrecognizable.
Several people left the housekeeper's room and headed towards the piano room. To be on the safe side, Luo also took out the floor plan of the manor that he had just brought from the housekeeper for comparison, and they went after confirming that it was correct.
Now that Mrs. Bella's purpose is clear, and Mrs. Bella is still not in the manor, the players don't have to continue to maintain normal behavior in front of the maids. Anyway, everyone will tear their faces tomorrow night.
Of course, it's better not to be seen.
Xiao Lan raised her hand and knocked out a maid who was guarding the corner.
Wang Teddy was lying on his face: "Didn't you just say that it is better for us to sneak in?"
Xiao Lan dragged the maid to an inconspicuous place to hide: "Isn't killing everyone who sees it a perfect stealth? This is called physical invisibility."
Teddy Wang: "..."
This kind of rough way of sneaking in, I think you are already better than blue.
He turned his head and asked Luo again: "You...don't have any objections?"
Luo showed a gentle and elegant smile, and replied, "Huh? Is there any question?"
Wang Teddy had a loveless expression: "No...it's pretty good, just as good as my brother."
Arriving at the location where the piano room was originally, as expected, there was a gorgeous wall. Several people opened the door according to the previous method again and entered it.
The piano room was as dusty as Anne's room.
It seems that the two rooms have been closed for a long time. I am afraid that it was closed shortly after the disappearance of Mr. Edmund.
The piano room is still gorgeous.
Beautiful and original crystal lamps are hung on the ceiling, and the exquisite craftsmanship of the time is faintly visible on the dusty carpet.The exquisitely crafted piano is placed in the middle of the piano room, and there is a huge floor-to-ceiling window facing the piano. Although it is now covered by heavy curtains, at that time, the player who played the piano could definitely enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the window when he looked up.
There are sofas and clocks not far away, and there is a beautiful vase on the table, which contains a large bouquet of long-withered roses.
This is supposed to be a piano room where players feel happy and comfortable.
Wang Teddy looked at the piano and said excitedly: "According to my previous experience when playing games at home, this kind of piano usually appears in puzzle games. As long as you play according to the requirements, you will definitely get clues."
Xiao Lan was puzzled: "This is illogical."
Wang Teddy shrugged: "As long as it fits the logic of the game, let's look around, maybe we can find some music score or a note with a password."
As a pauper with no time to play games, Xiao Lan couldn't understand Wang Teddy's excitement.
But he still searched around. After all, regardless of whether he needed to play the piano or not, he wanted to search this room anyway.
After a while, Luo came over with a yellowed and brittle paper between his fingertips, and he handed the paper to the others: "Look at this."
Xiao Lan looked at this flimsy piece of paper, and found that it was really a music score, or a handwritten stave.
Wang Teddy jumped up happily: "Look! My game is not for nothing, hahahahahahahahaha."
"Look at mine." He reached out and took the staff, and ran to the piano excitedly, ignored the ashes on the piano bench and sat down, opened the cover of the piano, and started to adjust the piano.
This piano should have been very expensive, and after more than 20 years of being closed, it can barely be played, but the sound quality is definitely not as good as it was then.
Afterwards, Wang Teddy looked at the score and began to play. I have to say that the posture looked very standard.
It's just... Although Wang Teddy pressed all the keys correctly, calling this thing a piano piece is a bit of an insult to the composer. Xiao Lan is sure that it is definitely not the fault of the piano's aging.
As expected, nothing in the room changed.
Wang Teddy scratched his head: "There must be something wrong."
Wang Ke opened his mouth to expose his stupid younger brother: "Have you forgotten how you got past the piano lessons when you were young?"
Teddy Wang: "..."
At this time, Wang Teddy suddenly understood his brother's desire to kill his relatives righteously every day.
Life is not easy, Teddy sighed.
Wang Teddy looked at his brother and changed the subject: "Brother, do you know anyone who can play?"
Wang Ke looked at the piano with bitterness and hatred, as if he was about to draw his knife and chop it up: "Qi Ning can play, but that guy always runs away and can't find anyone when he enters the game."
Xiao Lan thought about it: "I always feel that playing the piano may not be a necessary way to obtain clues. If all the players in this game can't play the piano, wouldn't they all be wiped out?"
"That's right..." The little flame of the puzzle game in Wang Teddy's heart went out with a snort.
Several people continued to search for clues in the room.
When Xiao Lan checked the tall clock in the room, he found that there seemed to be something inside. He stretched out his hand and opened the glass of the clock.
There is a portrait quietly placed inside the clock, even because of the protection of the clock, there is no dust on the picture.
Xiao Lan took out the portrait, on it was a handsome blond man with ocean-like blue eyes, dressed in a decent dress, his hair was combed meticulously, and there was an aristocratic elegance and reserve in his gestures and gestures.
On the back of the portrait it was written—Edmund.
This is Mrs. Bella's husband!
Wang Teddy pointed to the portrait: "Did this buddy owe 500 billion foreign debts and was packaged and sold by the creditors!!"
Xiao Lan looked longingly: "I really want to know how he did it."
Wang Teddy was shocked: "You also want to marry this kind of..."
Xiao Lan said seriously: "No, I want to owe 500 billion."
Teddy Wang: "???"
What otherworldly dream is this?
This is simply a cruel and inhuman scene. The lady living alone is attacked by an uninvited guest who suddenly visits in the middle of the night, and no one onlookers lends a helping hand. Whether it is the depravity of human nature or the indifference of society.
