As soon as Mark heard what Ava said, he knew that she was worried that he was doing something fishy in the will contract, but on a deeper level, she wanted to find some leverage over him in his documents. Fortunately, there was some bias in the fight for the inheritance among dozens of them.
Mark sneered, and his attitude towards Ava became even worse, but he relaxed in his heart. Without saying anything, he pushed her out of the study. This time, he locked the study, "Ms. Ava, Miss Sarah, strong curiosity is not a good thing..."
Mark's expression warmed up again. He pushed his lenses and looked at the two of them deeply. "Sometimes the more you know, the harder it is to get away from it."
After saying that, Mark quickly disappeared down the stairs, and Yuan Ying heard Offley's charming voice downstairs.
"Lawyer Mark? What a coincidence... Ah - don't be so rude."
"Ms. Offley, you and this Mr. Leah broke into my bedroom without any reason..."
Yuan Ying didn't listen to the rest of the words. She didn't think that the noise was caused by Offley or Leah accidentally. She looked at Ben Xinxin with her round eyes. Ben Xinxin's mouth corners raised reservedly, and then quickly fell. Yuan Ying's eyes were stunned for a moment, then quickly curved, and she quickly restrained her expression and went downstairs with Ben Xinxin.
Just then, I saw the embarrassed Offley and Leah being driven out of the bedroom by the ferocious-looking Mark.
It is not an exaggeration to say that they were "driven away". Yuan Ying had sharp eyes and saw that Offley was in good condition, but Leah was in a bit of a mess, her face was pale, and there was resentment in her eyes when she looked at Offley. She knew that the two of them must have been used as punching bags by the furious Mark. Yuan Ying couldn't help but smile with schadenfreude.
After getting enough information, Mark was also annoyed by the four of them. When he was angry, Yuan Ying and Ben Wenxin found an excuse to slip away.
"Oh, the weather doesn't look good. We haven't cleaned the house thoroughly yet, so I'll go back first. Goodbye, Mr. Mark."
When Ben Xin and Yuan Ying were halfway there, they met Martha, or rather, Chi Jun who played Martha.
He is also Benxin’s bodyguard.
Seeing Ben Xin, Chi Jun breathed a sigh of relief. From the time she entered the dungeon until now, she had contacted everyone she could, and finally she found Ben Xin.
Chi Jun was really annoyed while going through this dungeon. She didn't know if this crappy place was targeting her. Not only was there no clue about the dungeon, but her parents at home were also weird, restricting her travel. It rained from time to time in the town, and even if it didn't rain, the weather was not very good. It was wet and sticky everywhere, and there was rarely any sunshine. This was very unfavorable for Chi Jun, whose ability was fire and who was called the [Flame Lord].
The combat effectiveness has certainly declined, not to mention being reduced by half.
"Hello, sister." Chi Jun thought to himself, with a happy look on his face. He smiled and greeted Yuan Ying and Ben Wenxin who were passing by, and took out two wild flowers from his arms and gave them to them.
"Good morning, flowers for the beautiful lady."
"Thank you." Yuan Ying took it. The moment her hand touched the petals, her eyes narrowed subconsciously, the corners of her mouth drooped, and then she quickly recovered her composure. Ben Wenxin also paused for a second, let go of her hand, and the two looked at each other with some surprise and doubt in their eyes.
The moment Chi Jun touched them, a negative buff disappeared from both of their panels.
[Swamp: Sanity value increases, the probability of you being watched by the swamp decreases]
After delivering the flowers, Chi Jun passed by the two of them and left with only a sentence "Be careful at night" in the wind.
She didn't find anyone a few nights ago, and she was a little too harsh on those monsters. After those monsters noticed that she was an alien, they kept a close eye on her not only at night but also during the day. It was not suitable for her to have contact with her employer.
……
Feng Lan didn't meet Chi Jun. She walked with a flashlight for ten minutes, but still didn't reach the basement, so she knew something was wrong.
Looking back, the light from the door panel on the first floor was soft, neither near nor far, as if it was just over ten meters away. However, Feng Lan had tried to walk back once five minutes ago. She walked quickly for one minute, which was almost two kilometers, but still did not reach the door.
Feng Lan knew clearly that the bright door behind her that looked like an exit was not the real exit. She squinted her eyes and touched the narrow wall with her palm. It was damp and a little soft. When the cold white light of the flashlight shone on it, she saw gray moss that was almost the same color as the wall.
When Feng Lan first came down, there was no moss on the walls.
She closed her eyes and compared them in her memory palace, but she didn't notice when the moss appeared.
"The air humidity decreased by 7.46... and the odor density increased by 0.219%."
That strange fishy smell lingered in Feng Lan's nose from the moment he stepped into the basement. It was like a forest after rain, with a large number of plants opening their stomata to spew out various gases, which mixed with the earthy smell rising from the ground and evaporated upwards, with a faint smell of mold and the remaining moisture of rainwater.
Feng Lan suspected that the smell came from the moss. She was probably hallucinating. After thinking for a second, she walked for a few more minutes until she was in the basement for ten minutes. After there was still no progress, Feng Lan gave up hope. A large amount of red and white flames emerged from her body, completely enveloping her and burning every part of her body.
"Squeak..." A faint scream sounded in the quiet and empty basement. Feng Lan looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the gray moss on the wall was visibly shrinking and a lot of suspicious green gas was coming out.
