Non-Human Seeking Re-employment

Zhou Wenyan put away the photo and looked elsewhere.

Because Mr. Shen passed away some time ago, the room had already been tidied up once, the study was a bit messy, and Zhou Wenyan didn't find any effective clues.

Instead, Shen Dongqing found a list outside.

Above are the reports of some money and materials donated by Mrs. Shen to the church privately. Even considering the Shen family's family background, it is considered a large sum of money.

Shen Dongqing looked at it for a long time and didn't see anything there. When she saw Zhou Wenyan coming, she directly stuffed it to him.

Zhou Wenyan pinched the report: "It seems that Mrs. Shen is really a devout believer."

The two left the master bedroom.

At this time, the players also finished searching other places, and they seemed to have gained nothing, so they all returned to their rooms resentfully.

Only the lawyer came over.

The lawyer was a little surprised when he saw Zhou Wenyan and Shen Dongqing in the same room.

Zhou Wenyan raised his eyebrows.

The lawyer explained with a smile: "Because it is rumored that the relationship between the two is not very good, so..." He sat on the sofa in the room while talking, took out a stack of thick documents, and changed the subject, " This is Mr. Shen's will, I think it should be shown to the two of you."

Shen Dongqing became dizzy when she saw the densely packed words, and directly pushed it to Zhou Wenyan: "Look."

Zhou Wenyan took it and read it hastily.

This is indeed Mr. Shen's will document. Most of his estate was not left to his two sons, but was all donated to the church, and all that was left to them was this villa and a small amount of cash.

Even if Zhou Wenyan is a player and doesn't need these things, he still thinks this will is too strange.

The lawyer said meaningfully: "I have been with Mr. Shen for many years, and I have never heard of Mr. Shen's surname."

Shen Dongqing glanced at him: "Oh."

The lawyer was silent for a moment.

Wait, didn't you catch his signal?Shouldn't we understand now and then cooperate?

Shen Dongqing flipped through the documents randomly, and said abruptly: "What's your secret?"

The lawyer froze for a moment, but still hadn't reacted: "Huh?"

Shen Dongqing stared at him: "Secret."

The lawyer was taken aback by this unreasonable play of cards, and laughed twice: "You, what are you talking about? I don't know very well."

Shen Dongqing shrugged: "Okay, then..."

The lawyers joined forces, and before Shen Dongqing finished his question, he quickly said, "I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."

He was afraid that he would accidentally reveal his secret with his bald mouth during the conversation, and looking at his back looked a bit like running away.

Shen Dongqing scratched her hair: "Why are you running so fast?"

As agreed, the lawyer here just left, and the priest came again.

The priest saluted first, and then sat down: "I don't know how you two are thinking about it?"

Shen Dongqing didn't remember what happened all of a sudden: "Ah?"

The priest repeated: "It's about holding a church funeral." He paused, "I know that Mrs. Shen's body is a bit...but I think she is still willing to hold a church funeral."

"Oh." Shen Dongqing went straight to the point, "Then tell me the secret, and I'll promise you."

Priest: "?"

Why do you throw bombs as soon as you come up, can you get into the drama a little bit?Everyone stays here and is serious about acting, you come out and say stop acting, show me the script quickly, who can resist this.

The priest stood up immediately, and used the same rhetoric as the lawyer: "I have something to do."

Shen Dongqing scared the two players away with one sentence, but he himself had no sense of accomplishment at all, and leaned on the sofa wearily.

"I really want to know other people's secrets—" Shen Dongqing is a person who can't hide his words. He feels uncomfortable when he holds back his secrets. He wished he knew everyone's secrets immediately and then handed over his own secrets.

Time passed quickly, and it was night.

Players had to gather in the restaurant on the first floor.

Shen Dongqing and Zhou Wenyan arrived late, but the others had already arrived.

Shen Dongqing crossed the steps in two or three steps, jumped to the ground, then turned to look at Zhou Wenyan who was still standing on the steps, and asked, "Can you come down?"

After all, from the moment we first met, Zhou Wenyan acted as if he couldn't go downstairs.

Zhou Wenyan: "Well, you can take me down."

Saying that, he stretched out his hand.

Shen Dongqing didn't think much about it, and held Zhou Wenyan's hand. When he walked downstairs, Shen Dongqing suddenly felt a gust of draft blowing over him, making it chilly.

Zhou Wenyan came to the first floor safely.

The living room is in the middle of the first floor, and the dining room is on the right.

The butler prepared a table of meals, and the players sat on the edge of the round table, leaving just two seats.The little kid waved at them.

Shen Dongqing and Zhou Wenyan sat down.

The butler's craftsmanship is not bad, but just as Shen Dongqing picked up a piece of sweet and sour ribs, he heard the little nurse say, "I walked around and found that the villa is not very popular. Do you usually live here?"

Shen Dongqing took a bite of the ribs and had no time to speak.

Zhou Wenyan also ignored her.

The little nurse felt a little embarrassed, and turned to ask the others: "Did you find anything?"

Others talked in a hurry, but they didn't reveal their identity as players.

At this time, Shen Dongqing finished gnawing on the ribs, and said abruptly, "No one really thinks this is a game, does it?"

Other players: ?

Shen Dongqing threw down the bones and wiped her mouth: "You guys are too into the show, everyone is a player, can you stop talking so vainly?"

The little brat held the ground and said, "That's right, that's right."

Other players who are vain: ...

Indeed, there are very few secret groups in the game, and they have never played it. In order to hide their secrets, they all subconsciously bring in their identities, which leads to doing things and talking with their hands tied.

Now that Shen Dongqing said this, the other players immediately reacted, and all of them let go of their identities.

The little nurse said, "Everyone's goal should be to find the murderer, right?"

The bodyguard nodded.

No matter what the identities of the players are, the main task is the same, in order to find the murderer.

The priest said, "Then who do you think is the most suspect?"

The little nurse immediately stood up, pointed at Shen Dongqing and said, "I think he is the most suspicious. He said he had lost his memory when he woke up. I thought he was an NPC."

Shen Dongqing looked innocent: "I really don't remember."

The little boy nodded for him and testified: "Mmm, yes."

The little nurse was skeptical.

At this time the lawyer said, "I think the priest is suspicious because I know Mrs. Shen sees the priest once a week, and the day she died happened to be the day she saw the priest."

"But by coincidence, the priest didn't come that day."

The priest immediately began to argue: "I have something to do that day!"

The players here started to quarrel, and Shen Dongqing's ears hurt from hearing it.He reached out and patted the table, and immediately everyone fell silent and looked over.

"Why don't we tell the secret first." Shen Dongqing's first sentence was this.

The other players were stunned.

Shen Dongqing's words are well-founded: "I know you are all afraid of death, but have you ever thought that if the game says that you will die if you tell the secret, what if we tell the secret at the same time? It is impossible for the game to let us Die at the same time, right?"

Other players: ...I really can't tell.

Shen Dongqing began to persuade.

But the other players looked hesitant.

Shen Dongqing: "Why don't I tell you first, my secret is—"

Zhou Wenyan disagreed somewhat, but he didn't stop it either.

"My secret is—"

The other players stared closely at Shen Dongqing, but he gasped for breath, and finally gave a playful smile: "I won't tell you."

Then Shen Dongqing lowered her head and gnawed on the ribs again.

Other players: ? ? ?

He could eat it, but the others couldn't take it anymore because of their appetites. They all stared at Shen Dongqing.

On the other hand, Shen Dongqing had no pressure, she should eat and drink, and after eating, she brought a can of Feizhai Happy Water.

The other players were full of sulking.

Shen Dongqing sneaked up to Zhou Wenyan's side and said, "Everyone doesn't want to tell their secrets but also wants to hear my secrets. Hmph, I'm not stupid."

Zhou Wenyan patted his head and boasted: "Well, you are the smartest."

Shen Dongqing hummed twice, and looked at the little kid next to her as if showing off.

The little boy turned his head silently and poked the rice in the bowl.

After eating, the players dispersed.

They still didn't give up, but the upper and lower floors of the villa were turned over, and there was nothing to gain, so they discussed going to the garden outside.

The little nurse came to the door and wanted to open the door, but the lock cylinder seemed to be stuck and could not be pushed open at all.

She exclaimed, "The door is locked! We can't get out!"

Shen Dongqing: "Isn't this a normal operation?"

Little nurse: "That's right, I can't go to the garden..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Shen Dongqing walking over. He raised his leg and kicked towards the door.

boom--

The door remained motionless.

The bodyguard sarcastically said: "This door must not be opened. Our activity area should be in this villa."

While talking, Shen Dongqing stepped down again.

Door……

Just hearing the "click" of the lock cylinder, it was kicked open.

Shen Dongqing withdrew her legs: "What did you say?"

The bodyguard felt a little pain in the face.

The players filed out and headed towards the garden, only Zhou Wenyan did not move.

Shen Dongqing asked, "Aren't you going?"

Zhou Wenyan let out a "hmm".

The conversation between the two fell into the ears of the bodyguard, and he turned around and asked, "Why don't you go out?"

Zhou Wenyan: "I'm not in good health, so I won't go out. I'll wait for you here."

The bodyguard compared the figures of the two.

The body... not so good?I can't see it.

Facing the scrutinizing eyes, Zhou Wenyan didn't explain, but just didn't move.

Shen Dongqing patted him: "Then I'm going out, wait for me!"

The bodyguard thought to himself that it would not be a big problem if he didn't go out, so he didn't investigate further, and went to the small garden outside with Shen Dongqing.

Residents in the villa area are far apart, and each house has its own small garden.

There are a lot of plants planted in the garden of the Shen family's villa, which are exceptionally lush, with emerald green leaves and too bright red petals, as if quenched with blood.

The lawyer took the lead into the garden, and when he stepped on it, he felt something was wrong. When he looked down, a pale bone was exposed outside.

The bones are thin and long, no matter how you look at them, they look like human fingers.

The lawyer raised his foot with a white face: "Go get a shovel! There are dead bodies under here!"

The bodyguard ran to a corner of the garden to get a shovel, dug a bit on the ground, and dug out a pile of corpses, but fortunately it was not a human, but a small animal.

The corpse looked quite fresh, with dirty fur and unrotten meat still hanging on it. There were quite a lot of them, and it was all there when you dug it up with a shovel.

"Isn't this garden full of dead animals?" The little nurse was a little scared.

The bodyguard immediately shoveled down.

It was full of corpses again.

It seems that the garden is so lush because of the nourishment of the bones.

The players suddenly felt a chill.

At this moment, Shen Dongqing said: "It's all leftover kitchen waste? Isn't this garbage sorting? This is too immoral."

well.

The terrifying atmosphere dissipated immediately, and there was not even a shadow left.

The little nurse was no longer afraid, and said, "Could there be any cult rituals with so many animal corpses?"

Shen Dongqing let out an "ah" and attracted everyone's attention again.

He was heartbroken: "Why is it a cult again!"

There is still no innovation at all, this game is really boring!

The other players didn't understand his feelings. After a moment of silence, the bodyguard spoke up: "Why do you say that?"

Shen Dongqing: "I don't know how many times I have played games about cults, it's boring."

The priest smiled and said, "Since you have played so much, you must have special insights, right?"

Shen Dongqing touched her chin and said, "Maybe Mrs. Shen's belief in religion is just a cover. She actually believes in a cult, and the priest is also a priest of a cult."

The smile on the priest's face stagnated, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.

Seeing his reaction, Shen Dongqing tilted her head: "It's not really my guess, is it?"

The priest shook his head quickly: "No, no! I am indeed a real priest." As he spoke, he also made a sign of the cross on his chest.

Shen Dongqing stared at him for a while, then suddenly said, "Recite the Bible?"

The priest froze: ...

How could he!This is embarrassing people!

After such a mess, other players became suspicious of the priest.

After all, according to the lawyer, he is also suspected.

Players rummaged through the garden, only to find piles of animal bones, and nothing else.At the same time, it was already dark, and they returned to the villa.

The little nurse suggested: "Let's do it tomorrow."

After all, in this game, danger always appears at night, and ghosts also come out for a stroll at this time, so it is not wrong to hide in the room.

The priest was the first to agree.

The others had no objection and went back to their rooms one after another.

When Zhou Wenyan came out of the shower, he saw Shen Dongqing hugging the pillow, his eyes empty and his face pensive.He walked over and touched Shen Dongqing's cheek with his cold hand.

Shen Dongqing woke up with a start: "Ah!"

Zhou Wenyan smiled: "What are you thinking?"

Shen Dongqing squeezed the soft pillow and said, "It's a place where you want to hold cult ceremonies." He counted with his fingers, "The second floor is where other people live, and there is no vacancy, as are the first and third floors. So where are the dead animals in the garden slaughtered?"

He propped his chin with his hands, "It can't be really a kitchen, can it?"

Zhou Wenyan said slowly, "The basement."

Shen Dongqing: "How do you know there is a basement?"

Zhou Wenyan: "Guess."
