Chapter 14 Rose Manor (Thirteen) Clues Sharing

In the garden of Rose Manor, three pits lay neatly across the ground like scars.

There was a bloody corpse lying flat in each pit. Including the first one dug out, there were two men and one woman in total.

These three corpses were dressed in modern clothes, but they were all unfamiliar faces. At least none of the three people present expressed recognition.

Lying in the last dug pit was a girl who was no more than twelve or thirteen years old. She wore braids and her dress was cut to pieces by vines, revealing the staggered blood marks on her skin. She looked particularly miserable.

Zou Yan had been following Chang Xu since the first corpse was unearthed, watching him quietly.

After seeing the girl's body, she showed compassion, took off her coat and covered it, and drew a triangle on her chest: "Poor child, may the Lord bless you."

Chang Xu put the shovel back into the corner and analyzed expressionlessly: "It is known that one person will die every day, and the dungeon lasts for three days. These three people should be the group of players who entered the dungeon before us."

"It doesn't have to be the players, and it doesn't necessarily have to be the group of people before us." Zou Yan finished her prayer and raised her head to look at the sky. "I remember that this dungeon has been opened many times. If three people were buried every time, There won’t be only these three corpses in the garden.”

Chang Xu thought: "So, this may also be the hints and clues left to us intentionally by the copy."

Ye Zi has been quietly listening to the discussion between the two, thoughtfully.

She suddenly looked at Zou Yan and asked: "You said that you 'remember opening this dungeon many times,' which means you have learned about this dungeon in reality?"

"I only glanced at the forum and didn't read the content of their discussion carefully." Zou Yan's expression did not change, and there was no flaw in his expression. "Three days of preparation time, and there are tens of thousands of copies in the novice pool. I It’s impossible to read every one of them. I thought that the rules and ghost story dungeons would be very simple, just be careful not to break the rules, so I skipped all these dungeons.”

Ye Zi seemed to be angry and laughed: "What are you prepared for other copies? It's just to see what kind of ghosts there are. If you encounter them, you will die. Normal people know that there is value in preparing in advance for rules-based ghost stories. …”

Zou Yan lowered her eyes and said apologetically: "Yi Zi, I'm sorry, I really didn't think about it so much at the time. I saw that all the strange rules were team copies, so I thought if I didn't prepare, there should be other players who have done their homework. . I really didn’t expect it to be like this..."

"Don't change the subject!" Ye Zi's voice suddenly rose, "You obviously know more information than us, and you are hiding it. No one knows what you are thinking! Brother Shen is dead, who is next? Me ?"

"If you don't have evidence, don't mess around. I also have reason to suspect that you use yourself to save others."

"Heh, let me ask you, how did you know last night that as long as you covered your head, nothing would happen?"

Ye Zi sneered, turned around and walked towards the castle gate.

She walked a little faster, bumped into Chang Xu with her shoulder, and was pushed staggering by the reaction force.

She looked a little confused. Before entering the door, she turned her head and glared at Chang Xu fiercely.

Chang Xu, who suffered an unreasonable disaster, slowly raised a question mark with his eyes, gradually becoming confused in the wind.

Rose Manor only has breakfast and dinner, and does not provide lunch at noon.

Although the players are all hungry after a whole morning of tossing, they have no complaints about this arrangement. After all, sitting at the same table with Miss Anna for dinner is really a torture.

The mechanical clock on the second floor struck twelve times leisurely, and its ethereal chiming announced the arrival of twelve o'clock at noon.

Chang Xu climbed the stairs to the second floor alone. When he looked up, he saw Qisi leaning against the door of his room, holding a long red skirt in his hand.

The red dress should have been a clue. Chang Xu made a judgment and raised his eyebrows slightly: "What do you want from me?"

Qisi straightened up, looked at him and smiled: "Brother Chang, would you like to go to the third floor with us?"

We weren't so tense before, so why did you suddenly mention cooperation?

Chang Xu didn't understand and asked: "Why did you ask me to go with you? From your perspective, you can't rule out my suspicion of killing Shen Ming."

"But that's not important," said Ziss.

It was his plan to contact Chang Xu. Among the five people still alive, Chang Xu clearly has the advantage in terms of force value, and force is what he lacks.

He continued the second half of Chang Xu's sentence and said with a smile: "Assuming that your description of last night's situation is true, I guess you have the means to deal with weirdness. And I happen to be quite fragile and will get cold when encountering weirdness. , I need someone who can fight to help deal with special situations.”

"As for whether you killed someone or not, I don't care. The best safety guarantee is to judge the situation. When morality is weak, I only talk about interests."

"Cooperation brings no harm, and hostility will only lead to self-destruction. You and I are not fools. What's the use of worrying about public order and good customs except a waste of time?"

Chang Xu frowned slightly, and then heard Qisi add: "And I can't beat you, so for you, there is no risk in cooperating with me, right?"

Chang Xu was familiar with and used this logic, so he subconsciously nodded in agreement.

Qisi continued: "I have mastered the key to clearing this dungeon. I went to the third floor just to verify some of my guesses."

"You cooperate with me, and we will decipher the worldview together, and everyone will be happy; if you kill me, or let me die inexplicably—"

He paused for a moment without meaning, then let out a chuckle: "Heh, you have to guess the rest of the clues yourself."

Makes sense. Chang Xu nodded again, agreeing with Qisi's statement.

The next second, Qisi, who was standing by the door, took a few steps back, holding the door open and gesturing for him to open the door: "Since we have chosen to cooperate, how about we share the clues in our respective rooms?"

Chang Xu did not doubt his presence, so he walked directly to the door, took out the door key from his pocket and inserted it into the keyhole.

Zeiss looked at the defenseless back of the neck of the person in front of him, and for no reason began to think about the feel of the blade gliding between the skin.

His eyes darkened, and he suppressed the dangerous thoughts. He added in a tone that sounded false at first glance: "I may have to offend Brother Chang by disclosing part of the information first. My teammate is still alive. He is a relatively Xiaodujichang never let me take the lead in revealing the clues... Sigh, who would have thought that Brother Shen would die so early? "

Chang Xu didn't intend to be a compliment, so he turned the key and opened the lock without saying a word, then pushed the door open and entered.

Qisi immediately put away the hypocrisy on his face, and his serious expression followed closely.

The layout of Room 3 is similar to that of Room 2. A large bed, an oil lamp, a desk, and two chairs make up all the furniture inside.

The notebooks on the table were neatly stacked in a pile, with a piece of papyrus filled with writing on it, probably for organizing clues.

Chiss was not polite and went straight to the desk, picked up the piece of paper and started reading.

【I am stuck in time】

【This is the junction between morning and dusk】

[Reincarnation year after year]

【Yesterday is with me again】

[I don’t know how long I have lived here, but I still remember the morning when I first came here. The cold rain curtain hanging from the sky enveloped the world, and there was a bright red color between the gray sky and the earth, which made people feel decadent. The depressing color neutralizes into a charming and dreamy lavender. 】

[I reined in my horse outside the iron gate and saw what a lovely face through the window! Her radiance made me forget the pouring rain and mistakenly thought I was in a bright sunny day. She is Anna, I think, from the first moment I saw her, I couldn't help but fall in love with her. 】

[Anna and her sister Anne depend on each other and live in Rose Manor. Their parents had died three years ago - that was really unfortunate news. They were the only ones in the castle, not even a maid. 】

[Their family status has declined since their parents' generation, and their meager inheritance is only enough to manage the manor, and they still have to make a living by selling roses. I asked Anna about her future plans, and she said she might marry a wealthy new noble to improve her life. "I want my sister to be happier than me," she told me. 】

[Anna and I soon fell in love, and Anne seemed dissatisfied with this. She claimed over and over again that she did not need to sell her sister's beauty in exchange for a better life. She seemed to love her sister, how could I convince her that I would always love Anna? 】

[I have written several letters and sent them home in the past few days, telling my father about Anna and me in as many subtle ways as possible. I hope there will be a good outcome. 】

[If my father does not agree, if she is willing to give up her status for me, we can make an appointment and be together at night... No, this idea is too crazy! 】

[That night, Anna didn’t come to me after all, so I could only leave alone. I returned home and spent a year convincing my father to return to Rose Manor. 】

[After not seeing each other for a long time, Anna seems to be a little strange. The fragrance of roses on her body is much stronger than before. I don’t like that smell very much. She is very cold to me. There are several times when I look back inadvertently and I can see the coldness in her eyes. , almost stabbed me. 】

[Anna told me that she thinks death is the best nourishment for roses. I seem to understand something, that is the worst guess, but if I can save her, I am willing. 】
