I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo
Chapter 45 Letter Paper on the Bookshelf
After walking for a while, the eight people finally reached the fourth floor.
When the lights were turned on, everything in front of me became clear.
The two wooden boxes that Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan opened last night were not closed. Now under the light, they were shining with golden light.
Li Zhihai pushed aside a few people and rushed over, half of his body lying on the box, his hands constantly stroking inside.
"Oh my God, I've never seen so many good things in my life. Hahahaha, they're all mine!"
He admired the gold jewelry, his face showing undisguised greed.
Gu Chaoxi glanced past him and looked towards the place where the fight took place last night.
There was nothing except some minor scratches on the ground.
As expected, it disappeared when the game ended.
"Don't fight with me!"
Luo Hai just leaned over to take a look, but Li Zhihai raised his hand and pushed him aside, stretching out his arms to protect the gold, silver and jewels.
"No one wants to compete with you."
Pei Yan said coldly, and glanced at Qin Wei and Shen Yao: "Go find someone to protect yourself."
He raised his hand and touched his waist.
The dagger used last night was still there. As long as I moved my fingers a little further back, I could pull the dagger out of the scabbard.
Qin Wei smiled, walked to the unopened box and pushed open the lid.
She raised her eyebrows and couldn't help but sigh: "It's luxurious."
Although Gu Chaoxi knew what was inside, he couldn't help but lean over to take a look.
The most popular jewelry is made of jade and agate.
Perhaps at that time, the owners of the manor preferred to use these to decorate themselves.
Shen Yao also pushed open a box. There was something slightly different inside this box. It was full of accessories such as pearl necklaces.
Several people rummaged through some boxes and finally each of them found something to protect themselves.
Shen Xi weighed the dagger in his hand and found it was still quite heavy.
The busiest person was probably Li Zhihai. He didn't mind being tired and was running around among the boxes on the first floor, stuffing something into his pocket from time to time.
Gu Chaoxi didn't want to expose it, and felt it was unnecessary.
"It seems that there is nothing else found on this floor except these things."
Qin Wei roughly understood this aspect and shook his head in disappointment.
At present, they are still very passive. If they are trapped in the main building, they will never be able to fully understand the truth of the matter.
“I always feel like I’ve overlooked something.”
Gu Chaoxi raised his hand and touched his earlobe, which felt a little cold.
"I want to go to the study again."
She turned around to look at Pei Yan, who was leaning against the wall with his head lowered, so her expression could not be seen clearly.
Hearing her words, he didn't look up, but just touched his chin with his fingers, as if he was thinking about something.
"Pei Yan?"
She trotted over to him and tilted her head to look at him.
Seeing the enlarged face in front of him, Pei Yan came back to his senses: "What's wrong?"
"I want to go to the study, are you coming?"
"Okay." He nodded.
She turned her head and saw Zhou Ziyan and the others were still discussing why there were so many treasures left on the fourth floor of the manor owner's house.
She bit her lip, turned around and went down the stairs with Pei Yan.
"Any ideas?"
"It just feels weird."
Gu Chaoxi shook his head. In fact, he was also surprised at his own inexplicable weirdness.
According to legend, this manor was burned, killed and looted by robbers, so there should be nothing left. However, there are gold bars in the safe, and even more on the fourth floor, which is like a secret room.
It seems that this group of robbers is an extremely failed existence.
Qin Wei actually noticed that the two of them went down first, but looking at the way they were talking, he guessed that they had some new ideas.
She turned her head to look at the silent Shen Yao and the money-grubbing Li Zhihai, but finally resisted the urge to call them both.
After all, having a teammate like Li Zhihai sometimes feels like a bad thing.
Walking to the study on the second floor, it was Gu Chaoxi’s second time entering this room.
The two-story bookcase was filled with books. Normally, she had only seen so many books placed together in the library.
The safe that was opened yesterday was still open and empty.
There is a huge crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling in the middle of the study, which is now emitting white light.
She stood below and looked up. The light was not dazzling, but it still made her feel dizzy after looking at it for a long time.
Most of the books on the bookshelves around are in red and green packaging, with a few black books occasionally.
"There is one secret room, or maybe two?"
She turned to look at Pei Yan, only to find that he had taken a book from the bookshelf and was flipping through it.
All the books here are in English, which makes one's brain hurt to read. Gu Chaoxi doesn't have the leisure time for that.
"There may not be a second secret room."
Pei Yan chuckled.
"Do you remember what you said yesterday? We forgot the area at first, but after going to the fourth floor, I carefully converted it. The sizes of upstairs and downstairs are now equal."
"So, it's unlikely that there is another secret room that has not been discovered."
"But I always feel like I've overlooked something." Gu Chaoxi felt that his brain was not enough.
She walked around and climbed up the small stairs to the second floor of the study. The books here were covered with a layer of dust.
I randomly picked up a book with a black cover, opened the title page, and saw a string of English words written in beautiful handwriting on it.
The general idea is that God will redeem the frustrated.
“There’s that word redemption again.”
She laughed silently, closed the book and put it back on the bookshelf.
The small floor on the second floor was covered with a thick layer of dust, and only a trail of footprints was left when Gu Chaoxi stepped on it.
She looked around casually and didn't find any possible mechanism, so she prepared to go down the stairs.
It was probably at this time that I suddenly saw a thin piece of paper placed on top of several books on the top shelf of the first floor.
The paper was placed further inside and she couldn't see it clearly, so she leaned forward to try to take it out.
It was a very thin piece of letter paper, with the writing still intact.
She didn't dare to use force, but just pinched the paper gently.
When she lowered her head, Pei Yan was standing beside the stairs, looking up at her.
He held out his hand and nodded at her: "Give it to me."
"Ah."
He handed the letter to Pei Yan, and after he took it, Gu Chaoxi quickly climbed down the stairs using both hands to support himself.
Pei Yan had already brushed away the dust on the letter paper with his sleeve, revealing the handwriting on it.
He took a quick look and handed the letter to Gu Chaoxi.
"what?"
Seeing that he didn't say anything, she had to lower her head and look.
There were only a few lines, and she finished reading it in no time. Then she sighed softly and had an idea in her mind.
"It seems that the contents of the diary were burned by the owner of the diary himself."
He may have felt that recording something like that tarnished his record, or he may have felt guilty towards the woman.
This piece of light letter paper only records an interesting love story.
It says, When you found this letter from me, I thought we were a match made in heaven.
