They followed the sound of the music all the way to the restaurant on the first floor.

They came here once when they were inspecting the castle. The scene at that time was dilapidated: the tables and chairs were covered with cobwebs and dust, and the wooden tables were eaten by insects with many pores. It looked so desolate. How desolate.But now, the scene in the eyes of Miao Hanchi and Li Shuo has become quite different.

The candlesticks hanging from the ceiling of the restaurant were lit with candles, and the warm light illuminated the restaurant, making the armrests of the reddish-brown wooden chairs reveal a greasy luster.The long table was covered with a layer of white cloth, and delicacies had been presented on it.And in front of each chair, there are also porcelain plates and silver knives and forks, as if quietly waiting for the owner to enjoy.

This change made Miao Hanchi and Li Shuo look dignified. They walked into the restaurant slowly and discovered more details inside.

The music they heard came from an old-fashioned record player in the corner of the restaurant, but when they got closer, they found that there was no record on it, and it was playing a disc that didn't exist at all.The knives and forks placed on the dining table are very scattered, and there is still food left on the plate, as if someone had enjoyed it not long ago.But both Miao Hanchi and Li Shuo are sure that they came here at the fastest speed, and they didn't see anyone on the way!

Who the hell is eating the food and playing the music?

Miao Hanchi looked at Li Shuo, and found that Li Shuo had been standing still since he discovered the record player, with his head raised, as if he was concentrating on studying the ceiling and chandelier of the restaurant.

He raised his head and glanced at the ceiling, but he didn't see anything worth noting. He asked suspiciously, "What did you find?"

"No... I just took a look." Li Shuo recovered and said after a pause.

Miao Hanchi shook his head and ignored it.He walked around the restaurant, and suddenly found that there seemed to be a card under a certain plate on the dining table. He walked over and pulled it out. Compared with the invitation letter he received from the program group, he confirmed the two cards. are using the same material.

He looked at the words printed on the card:

"Dear guests, welcome to Katz Castle. Please enjoy your dinner and choose any guest room you want to live in. Please feel free to live as if you are in your own home, because no one knows whether you will see the first Sunrise for two days."

Miao Hanchi stared at this card, whether it was a respect or a threat, he couldn't tell, thinking.

Seeing that he had discovered something, Li Shuo walked over: "What is this?" He asked as he walked behind Miao Hanchi and poked his head over his shoulder, "It's a message from the program team. ?"

Suddenly, a furry head poked out from behind, and the exhalation of the other party's speech was still spit on his sensitive and thin neck skin.Miao Hanchi felt a strange tremor all over his body, and he almost resisted it so that he didn't attack the opponent with a backhand.

He hastily took a step forward and turned around, resisting the idea of ​​rubbing the hot skin on his neck with his hands, and tried his best to pretend that nothing had happened and handed the card in his hand to Li Shuo: "Look for yourself. "

Li Shuo didn't pay attention to his abnormality, and lowered his head to study the card seriously.

"This card should be a reminder that we don't have to wait for other people to join us today," Miao Hanchi said, "otherwise we wouldn't have specifically emphasized that we should eat by ourselves and find a room to rest. As for the last sentence, I think it might be related to this This issue is related to the theme of the show, is it a warning? Or a warning?"

Miao Hanchi was thinking.

A record player that can play without a record, and a restaurant that has suddenly changed its shape and left traces of someone eating, plus the famous haunted house that the driver mentioned before... He has already been able to determine that the theme of this issue should be related to the haunted house. Expeditions are associated with hauntings.

That being the case, all of this can only be regarded as an appetizer, and the main meal will not be served until after dark.

"Let's have dinner first, and then explore the castle at night." Miao Hanchi made a decision, "There should be new discoveries by then."

But after he finished speaking, he didn't get any response from Li Shuo.Miao Hanchi looked up strangely, and found that Li Shuo seemed to be standing there in a daze again.

"Li Shuo!" He frowned and raised his voice.

"Oh, oh?" Li Shuo came back to his senses, looked at Miao Hanchi, "Is there something wrong?"

"Did you hear what I just said?"

"What did you say?"

Miao Hanchi twitched the corners of his mouth: "I said that we will investigate this castle again after nightfall..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Shuo's pupils suddenly shrank, and then returned to his original expression, so fast that Miao Hanchi even suspected that he had misread.

"It's possible, but I'm such a sleepy person at night that I can't get up." Li Shuo said.

How come I don't know about this?

Subconsciously, Miao Hanchi wanted to ask back, but felt that it would show how close he and Li Shuo were, and he even knew about Li Shuo's sleeping situation, so he pursed his lips and didn't speak.

"Isn't it the same to explore during the day? It's only the first day, so there's no need to be so anxious." Li Shuo continued to try to analyze, "Now that there is insufficient information, it's not a good strategy to act rashly on the first day. And we haven't joined up with other people yet. What if the game activities in this issue start after everyone has gathered? It’s useless for us to explore now.”

Miao Hanchi got a headache from his nagging, and he found that Li Shuo seemed to be talking more than usual.He glanced at the other party suspiciously, but agreed to his proposal and planned to wait until the next day to explore the castle.

The two found a seat at the table and began to eat, away from the record player in the corner and the table area where there were signs of human activity.

Miao Hanchi has always been very devout about eating, and he devoted himself to solving the food, and quickly emptied the plate.After he was full, he wiped his mouth with a napkin, and when he looked up, he realized that Li Shuo, who was opposite him, hadn't even finished half of his meal—he ate very slowly, and he always felt a little restless.

"You have a bad appetite?" Miao Hanchi asked.

Li Shuo was surprised: "No!" He immediately denied, "I...I'm just not very hungry. That's right, I ate before I came here, so I can't eat any more." Putting down his knife and fork, he really looked like he couldn't eat.

Miao Hanchi didn't think too much, just nodded: "Then let's go and find a room where we can sleep."

There are many guest rooms in the castle, and there is not only one bedroom like the room in the first episode of the program. Miao Hanchi naturally wanted to find two rooms for the two to sleep separately, but he was choosing a more satisfactory room Then, I saw Li Shuo walking in after him consciously.

"Your room is opposite." Miao Hanchi said to him.

"I think it's better for us to sleep in the same room." It's already night, and the camera won't record the footage of the guests in the bedroom, so Li Shuo can say something directly, "Think about the purpose of our show , if we want to resume work as soon as possible, we can only act like a real couple in the eyes of the audience—how can a couple choose to sleep in separate rooms?"

Miao Hanchi felt that what he said made sense, but he always felt that something was not quite right.

After thinking about it for a long time, he finally realized that such words with the general situation in mind were hardly something that His Royal Highness the Second Prince would say.

"You're really weird today." Miao Hanchi said lightly when he thought about it.

"You think too much." Li Shuo's body stiffened for a moment, but soon became calm again.

Miao Hanchi didn't want to delve into it. Although he didn't want to admit it, sleeping on the same bed with Li Shuo seemed to be not too difficult for him to accept.

After all, both of them are men, as long as they don't think too much, sharing the same bed for a week is nothing.

So when he went to bed at night, Miao Hanchi quickly fell asleep without any pressure.

But the show crew didn't seem to want them to sleep well at all. In the middle of the night, Miao Hanchi, who was relatively light sleeper, heard a furtive sound coming from the corridor of the room.

And this voice first came from a distance, and then it got closer and closer to their room... Finally, it reached the door, and it suddenly became silent!

Although the voice disappeared, the strange feeling left behind did not disappear.The sudden interruption of the sound seemed to make people think that the person passing by the door was standing in front of their door, watching the door quietly.

Miao Hanchi opened his eyes, and saw that Li Shuo on the opposite side had woken up early and was staring at the door tensely without blinking.Sensing the movement of Miao Hanchi, he lowered his head slightly, and the eyes of the two met for a moment, and then slightly staggered.

"I'll go and have a look." Miao Hanchi said softly to him.

Li Shuo nodded slowly.

Miao Hanchi got up lightly, just sat up straight and before he could get out of bed, suddenly a heavy object hit the door with a "bang", Li Shuo jumped up from the bed, hooked his arm around Miao Hanchi's Her shoulders pulled him into her arms.

Miao Hanchi didn't have time to take precautions, or he didn't expect Li Shuo to do such a thing suddenly.It wasn't until his face was pressed against the opponent's chest, and he was held tightly in his arms like a pillow that he couldn't move, that he realized what had happened belatedly.

As for Li Shuo, it was only after he hugged him in his arms that he realized what he had done.

His brain went blank for a moment, and then subconsciously said: "It's okay! Don't be afraid, I will protect you!"

Hearing this, Miao Hanchi, whose face was livid and about to get angry, was speechless for a while.

He is afraid?He is afraid of the devil!

Miao Hanchi was out of breath and just wanted to speak.But when he saw Li Shuo's pale face by the moonlight outside the window, he was stunned for a moment, and an incredible guess appeared in his heart.

"Li Shuo," Miao Hanchi asked with a strange expression, "you are afraid of ghosts, aren't you?"
