Please draw your way of death

"There are too many contents in the diary, so let me give you a brief overview." Meng Qishu flipped through the diary, "Generally speaking, the Duke's son started a relationship with someone, but for some reason, he never dared to disclose it. The two maintained this underground relationship by exchanging letters. Later, I don’t know when, the frequency of the Duke’s son’s lover’s writing letters gradually decreased. The Duke’s son suspected that his lover had a different heart, and proposed to have an interview with his lover, but was rejected. .”

"The lover wrote back many times expressing his heart, and expressed his dissatisfaction with his distrust, but the son of the duke insisted on firming up his thoughts, and must ask his lover face to face. Later, the son of the duke decided not to ask his lover's opinion anymore, and went directly to Find out where your lover lives..."

"Then what happened afterwards?" He Yingbai was fascinated by what he was listening to, but Meng Qishu suddenly stopped.

"It's gone, this diary will end here." Meng Qishu showed him the last page of the diary, the last sentence of the text was——

"I can't bear it anymore, I must get a result. Just today, I must go and see, whether the result is what I want or not."

"It's just gone?" He Yingbai smacked his lips, expressing regret.

"The diary ended abruptly, and there must be a follow-up to the story." Ning Mian finally thought about the contents of the diary, "There must be clues in the Duke's son's room."

"But we will attract the Duchess as soon as we pass by, how do we go in and find clues?" He Yingbai was worried.

"Let's put this question aside for now. There are too few clues in the diary to deduce anything useful. We have to look for other clues." Mu Xiaoyun said, "In addition, in addition to finding the truth about the death of the Duke's son, don't forget We have another mission."

Another mission - survive seven days!

"The action of the dungeon boss will gradually increase over time. It may have been okay a few days ago, but the more difficult it is to delay, so..." Qiu Shi looked up at the old players, and exchanged a knowing look with each other. .

"When looking for clues, pay more attention to shortcuts." Mu Xiaoyun continued.

"If there is nothing else, I think we can go back and rest." Meng Qishu yawned, and turned his gaze to the two little girls who were also drowsy, "By the way, the Duchess didn't succeed with the sword today. It is possible to do something at night. People with servant cards should be careful tonight."

"Why is it a servant card?" Mo Li was startled awake by Meng Qishu's gaze, and asked tremblingly, raising her hand.

"Because currently the highest death rate in the castle is the domestic servant." Meng Qishu smiled, but Ning Mian finally grabbed his sleeve and dragged him out.

"Just know how to create a chaotic atmosphere, don't scare the little girl, go back to the room."

"Ning Mian, you go back to the room when you get back to the room, can you stop talking!" Meng Qishu expressed his displeasure at being dragged away.

"Don't pull you, I think you're going to pretend to be a ghost and end up being a swordsman." Ning Mian finally waved at the room door and returned to the room with the restless little assistant in her hand.

Meng Qishu was very unconvinced, but he had nothing to say.

After all, he really thought so!

"By the way, what is the shortcut you mentioned just now? Why don't I know?" Meng Qishu asked casually, who was at a loss for words.

"As a returnee, you don't know about shortcuts?" Ning Mian was finally surprised.

"Please, it's been 18 years since I entered the dungeon for the first time? After so many years, how do I know what it has become?" Meng Qishu pushed open the door in front of him, "Besides, this dungeon is just mine. The second dungeon, in the final analysis, I am still a novice with no experience."

"I thought you, a returnee, have gone through quite a few dungeons, it seems I was wrong." Ning Mian finally said.

Meng Qishu: ...does he look so sophisticated?It has been connoted, thank you!

"Shortcuts, the literal meaning is to skip the dungeon task and pass the level directly." Ning Mian finally explained, "Some dungeons have incomplete logic, as long as you find a place where the logic chain does not match, you can use the shortcut to leave the dungeon directly and complete it in disguise. Task."

"Logical chain? For example?" Meng Qishu said.

"I had a dungeon during my novice period, and the dungeon introduction pointed out that the players were a few brave college students who accidentally encountered a real ghost while exploring a haunted house." Ning Mian finally recalled, "The dungeon task at that time was to complete the ghost's Requirements, find the next scapegoat, you can get rid of the status quo of being haunted by ghosts, and clear the copy."

"so?"

"I was busy with work at the time, and I was in a hurry to get a copy, so I singled out the ghosts." Ning Mian finally saw Meng Qishu's eyes and became a little hard to explain when he heard his words, "Anyway, the ultimate purpose of the mission It’s all about getting rid of ghosts, the process is secondary, right?”

ha?Got into a fight with a ghost because of work?

Meng Qishu expressed difficulty in understanding: "The copy encourages violent customs clearance?"

"No, this is called a card bug."

"..." What a goddamn card bug!

As if to verify Meng Qishu's words, that night, when everyone was sleeping soundly, there was a piercing scream in the corridor.

Meng Qishu who was woken up suddenly opened his eyes, and Ning Mian, who also just woke up, exchanged a glance, got out of bed and ran out the door.

"Something happened." On the other side, Mu Xiaoyun also just rushed out of the room, looked at Meng Qishu and the two solemnly, and strode towards the source of the voice.

"Do you want to go in?" Brother Qiushi, who had arrived at the destination a step earlier, did not ease his serious expression when he saw the large army coming.

"Come in, why don't you go in?" Ning Mian finally stepped forward to turn the lock, but found that the door was locked tightly.

"The two girls, Mo Li, live here, right?" Meng Qishu took a step back and observed the layout of the corridor.

There were eight of them in total, occupying four rooms. He and Mu Xiaoyun had rooms opposite each other, and Mu Xiaoyun and the two girls were next door.

"Yes." Qiushi nodded.

"Is there anyone else inside? Is it convenient to open the door?" Ning Mian finally raised her hand and knocked on the door without much hope, but Mo Li's trembling voice came from inside the room.

"There... someone..."

"What happened, do you need us to go in and take a look?" Ning Mian finally let out a small sigh of relief, it seems that there are still people alive.

"I... I don't know... I don't know..." Mo Li's voice suddenly became agitated, and her voice trembled with fear, "She's dead... She's dead! Help me, I don't want to die ...I don't want to die!"

The gazes of the people outside the house changed instantly. Ning Mian finally took out a card from his pocket and threw it on the door, and kicked the door, only to see that the door that was locked tightly was now like a light board , was kicked away by Ning Mian.

The room was pitch black, only the faint moonlight fell through the windows of the room onto the big dark bed, the person on the bed was motionless, and there was no trace of blood on his pale face.And Mo Li was sitting slumped on the floor next to the bed, looking at the few people outside the house in horror.

"It smells so strong of blood." Meng Qishu frowned, and followed Ning Mian into the room.

"Wow! What's going on!" He Yingbai and Mu Xiaoyun helped up Mo Li who had fallen by the bed, and when he looked up, he saw that the dark bed was densely covered with lines.

"It seems that the smell of blood is coming from here." Qiu Shi held his chin to observe, and turned to greet his younger brother who was hiding at the door and dared not come in, "Qiu Zhi, do you want to come and see?"

Qiu Zhi frantically shook her head.

"Hey, that's a pity." Qiu Shi shook his head, and he didn't force it. After all, this is the first book for his younger brother, and his courage still needs to be honed.

While Qiu Shi was thinking about how to train his younger brother, Ning Mian finally stepped forward to the bed.

"What are you doing?" Meng Qishu, who had read the lines on the bed several times and was still clueless, noticed his movements and couldn't help asking.

"Autopsy." Ning Mian finally took out a pair of disposable gloves, put them on neatly, and played with the corpse on the bed.

Meng Qishu looked at He Yingbai who took two steps back behind him covering his mouth and couldn't bear to look directly at Mu Xiaoyun, then looked at Mo Li who was too scared to speak, and finally looked at Qiu who had never dared to enter the door from the beginning to the end. Childish, the corner of his mouth twitched: "Why do you still carry disposable gloves with you?"

"Occupational disease, there's nothing I can do." Ning Mian finally checked the condition of the corpse roughly, got up and tore off the gloves, "The corpse is very complete, there are only two stab wounds on both wrists, preliminarily presumed to be excessive blood loss."

"Tell me, are these lines on the bed drawn with her blood?" Meng Qishu squinted at those lines, always feeling that something was wrong.

"It's very likely." Ning Mian threw the gloves she took off into He Yingbai's arms, "Go and ask Mo Li what happened just now, and look for any clues."

"Why didn't you go?" He Yingbai was so frightened by Ning Mianzhong's action that he almost threw the gloves back.

"Or do you prefer to come and see the scene?"

He Yingbai silently glanced at the corpse on the bed, took a deep breath of bloody air, and took two steps back: "I'm going to ask for clues!"

"What did you find?" Ning Mian finally returned to Meng Qishu's side after finishing the matter here.

"The red blood was smeared on the dark fabric, so it's hard to distinguish." Meng Qishu picked up a corner of the quilt and examined it carefully. "It can only be said that these lines are regular. It's hard to say whether it's words or something else."

"Looks like the clue is broken again." Ning Mian finally said.

"Could it be the formation?" Meng Qishu turned his head, only to see Qiu Shi looking away from the bed, "Didn't Mu Xiaoyun just get half of the formation, you can try it out."

"Let me see." Mu Xiaoyun took out the half piece of paper and carefully compared it on the bed.

"If it's really a formation, then does it prove that the Duchess has been here?" Meng Qishu's eyes were a little cold.

"Why must it be her?" Ning Mian finally asked with her hair tilted.

"The array was discovered in the master bedroom, who else could it be besides her?"

A few minutes later, Mu Xiaoyun raised her head in silence, and announced word by word: "The comparison has been made, half of the formations are completely consistent!"

On the other side, He Yingbai waved his hands and poked his head in: "Boss Ning, I asked, Mo Li said that she saw someone in the room after she woke up."

"Who?" Ning Mian's heart tightened.

"Duchess!"
