Escape from the world [Cthulhu]

Although the guests have arrived, the host seat is still vacant, and there is no meal on the table.

They waited for a while, and after some people came to both sides of the table, two ladies came in from the door.

They look very similar, they are all rare beauty, and they also dress very similarly. They all wear heavy retro-style long skirts, and they look like a pair of twins at first glance.

The only difference is that the lady walking in front looks a little haggard, she has more obvious dark circles, but this does not affect her beauty.

Yan'an [Investigation] check/exit: 65/60 failed

Lianyu [Investigation] check/exit: success on 75/25 difficulty

Lian Yu found that after entering the Liszt house, he did not find any electrical appliances except electric lights, and there were almost no products of modern society here.Even the servants here are very retro in their attire.

The lady who looked a bit haggard walked to the main seat: "Welcome to the Liszt house, I am the hostess here, you can call me Mrs. Liszt. Thank you very much for coming to my husband, Mr. Liszt. The birthday party was originally planned to be held today, but because my husband is not feeling well, it has been postponed to the day after tomorrow. I hope you can understand. If there is any friend who is too late and wants to leave early, tomorrow morning, the housekeeper will Arrange carriages to take everyone away." Although she looked haggard, when she spoke, her voice didn't sound tired at all.

After Mrs. Liszt finished speaking, she sat down on the main seat. The butler rang the bell, and the servants waiting at the side began to serve the dishes.

But they didn't have a smooth meal right away.

Sitting on the other side of the long table, a lady dressed as a nun stood up. She crossed her chest, clasped her hands together, and prayed: "We are able to sit here today, thanks to the merciful Lord." Give us food, give us a house to live in, give us a healthy body. Let us be grateful, thank the Lord for his kindness, thank..."

She said a long prayer, and many people on both sides of the long table followed her and bowed their heads to pray.

An Xian had no faith, and was unwilling to put on a show, so she raised her head and looked around.

An Xian [Investigation] check/out of sight: 50/100 big failure

When An Xian was looking around, one of them didn't pay attention, and met a lady in black who was sitting at the end of the table, far away from the others.She was startled, and she suddenly leaned back, hitting her head heavily on the back of the chair, making a loud noise.The people on both sides of the long table had finished praying at this time, and they all cast condemning eyes on her.

The dinner was very rich. It is worth noting that there was a medium-rare bloody steak on the table, which was full of fishy smell.Fortunately, the mushroom soup served with it had enough spices, otherwise the bloody smell alone could make people faint.

He Ying looked at the mushroom soup and suddenly laughed out loud.

An Xian and Chu Lishu who were sitting on both sides of him looked at him.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of a novel I read before," He Ying said in a low voice, because there were also people talking in low voices around, so his voice was not abrupt, "The novel is based on ancient European novels. , still a slavery society. It is said that the productivity inside is low, and the food is not good. Well, it seems that those nobles have the kind of dexterous tongues that can taste all kinds of spices in it."

An Xian and Chu Lishu pushed away the mushroom soup at the same time.

Yan An next door originally wanted to try the mushroom soup, but his ears are very useful: "..."

He put down the spoon, and said to Lian Yu, "No mushroom soup."

Lian Yu didn't ask why, Yan An said so, and he did as he said.

For some reason, An Xian subconsciously looked at the lady sitting at the end of the table. She was dressed in black, and only her head was exposed outside the cloth.She wore a black hat on her head, and a black veil hung from the edge of the hat, covering half of her face, revealing only a pair of bright red lips that were almost bloody.

At this time, she was cutting the medium-rare bloody steak with utensils. Although she couldn't see her expression clearly, from her expression, she seemed to be enjoying the meal very much.

At the end of the dinner time, Mrs. Liszt, who was sitting in the main seat, said that she would go back to take care of her husband and left first.

The lady who came with her before stood up and said: "Good evening, I am Serena's sister, you can call me Mrs. Caroline. It's still early, why don't we all go to the lounge to chat, this time We invited Ms. Anxi, the piano master, for the banquet. Her piano skills are world-renowned, and I think everyone would not want to miss it."

After she finished speaking, she clapped her hands, and the maids who were standing in the corner stepped forward to lead the way for the guests she was serving, and guided them to the lounge on the right side of the banquet hall.

The lounge is very large, with many seats and sofas, and there are various board games, card games, board games on the table...any game you can think of, you can find it here.Somewhat surprisingly, they could even see a mahjong set in a display case in the corner of the room.

It was summer now, and the fireplace in the room was not lit. He Ying noticed that there was a huge portrait hanging on the wall opposite the fireplace.The portrait shows a young man with brown hair slightly curly and gray blue eyes. His skin is pale and not considered strong. Although the artist tried his best to beautify it, he still gives people a weak feeling.

Mrs. Caroline, who was sitting on a soft chair by the fireplace, found him looking at the portrait, and explained: "This is Mr. Lister, my sister's husband."

Chu Lishu took the opportunity to chat with Mrs. Caroline: "We heard from the housekeeper that Mr. Liszt is not in good health now?"

"Sir, your words are really gentle." Caroline covered her lips with her hands and smiled, "But it's not difficult to understand, after all, no one in the whole mansion dared to speak out, as if they were cursing It's ridiculous who is the same."

Chu Lishu sat across from her, pretending to be curious: "This is really strange... I am even more curious now, what is the condition of Mr. Liszt's body now? Maybe you are willing to explain it to me, beautiful lady .”

"Oh, it's a great honor." Mrs. Caroline lowered her hand covering her lips, and the corners of her mouth curled up in the most ironic arc, "Mr. Lister, he is completely dead to me."
