Leather Player Peekaboo [Unlimited]
Chapter 32 Strict Wife Control
"The mistress died? How did she die?" Hearing that the mistress in the house died, Jian Wen's first reaction was the scene last night.
The deceased last night was a pregnant woman. After giving birth, the child was taken away and brutally murdered. The hostess in the house was also a pregnant woman. Could it be the same?
But I heard Diya say: "I died in childbirth."
"What?!" Jian Wen frowned.Dystocia, wasn't he killed?
"Let's go, let's go take a look." Huo Sheng walked out.
The three of them went downstairs together, only to realize that none of the male servants in the corridor had seen them.
I don't want them to appear, and the male servant stares at each other like a goalkeeper.I hope that when someone leads the way, no one can be found.
The three of them had to find the maid or housekeeper first. On the way, Jianwen asked Diya, "By the way, where's your roommate?"
Di Ya said unhappily: "The suitor knocked on the door early in the morning to deliver flowers, woke us up, and said he wanted to give Xiao Ai a surprise, I just couldn't sleep after being woken up by him and went for a walk in the garden. This news. Now Xiao Ai is catching up on sleep, saying that he has a headache because of his quarrel."
"I think that male servant is weird. He doesn't like the way he looks at Xiao Ai." Relying on a woman's instinct, Diya frowned and confirmed.
"Besides, the lights in our room just turned on in the morning. It was Xiao Ai who went to the bathroom, but unexpectedly, the maid knocked on the door to deliver flowers. I always think that time is too coincidental, as if he was looking at our room from the window."
Such a creepy statement made Jian Wen immediately think of last night's experience: "By the way, did you have any nightmares last night?"
Huo Sheng thought about it carefully: "I just felt as if I heard some movement in the room, and the sound of water, and I seemed to be crushed by a ghost on the bed in a daze, and I couldn't move, but fell asleep again without knowing it. "
Jian Wen: It's really good to sleep well, it's related to the safety of life, he almost died and Huo Sheng slept so soundly.
Diya thought about it seriously, then shook her head: "No, I was also worried that something would happen at night, but nothing happened."
Jian Wen had a bad feeling in her heart.
Why was he the only one who saw that bloody and terrifying scene?
Does the danger in the prophecy really mean that "male players" will be very dangerous and are the primary hunting targets of ghosts?
While meditating all the way, Jian Wen tried hard to recall the scene he saw last night, and recalled the details in order to find more clues.
When they went downstairs, they found that Jiang Zhe was already sitting at the head of the long dining table, with a strange smile on his face: "Oh, let me tell you some sad news. My poor stepmother passed away this morning. In order to mourn her, These days, only vegetarian meals are available."
Jian Wen saw that breakfast was prepared on the dining table. It was Chinese-style porridge and steamed buns, and each person was served with a few dishes of exquisite pickles. But the most glaring thing was that everyone had a red egg.
Red eggs?
Jian Wen looked at Jiang Zhe: "What does this red egg mean?"
Jiang Zhe said nonchalantly: "Oh, this was originally prepared for my stepmother, who knew that her child died before it was born, and so many red eggs can't be wasted, so let's share them and eat them, and be happy."
The players fell silent.
This malice is really blatant and undisguised.
Jian Wen didn't touch the red egg, neither did Huo Sheng and Di Ya.Jian Wen specially observed that Xiao Ai was the last one to come, and she didn't look very well, so she only ate porridge.However, there were two male players with relatively large appetites. After eating the porridge and fritters, they ate the red eggs nonchalantly.
Lu Daniu, who has always been rude and unrestrained, did not touch the red egg at all, and was much more cautious than his appearance.
Jian Wenduo glanced at the two male players, remembering that the thin and tall one was called Xiao Zhu, and the darker one was called Xiao Tan, and he secretly remembered them in his heart.
After breakfast, Jian Wen saw that Huo Sheng and Di Ya were also eating similarly, put down his chopsticks and asked politely, "May I ask, can we pay homage to Madam?"
They said they were paying homage to the dead, but they actually wanted to see if there was anything suspicious. After all, their players were "feudal superstition practitioners."
Jiang Zhe shrugged: "Anything."
"I also want to go and have a look." Xiaobai was still sitting on Jiang Zhe's right hand, coquettishly with him, "I'm rather stupid, I don't have any clues to find Miss Jiang, maybe I can find clues by walking around the yard more. It's over."
Jiang Zhe frivolously raised Xiaobai's chin: "Okay, baby, I'll take you up there to have a look, and then go to Jiang Nuan's room to have a look as well."
"You are the best~" Xiaobai leaned into Jiang Zhe's arms, and glanced at the other players proudly.
Jian Wen didn't have much malice towards Xiaobai's actions. In the death game, anyone who can survive is a strong player, but he didn't expect that Xiaobai would not go alone in private, but let Jiang Zhe take all the players.Xiaobai is much smarter and more generous than he imagined.
With Jiang Zhe leading the way, they arrived at the master's bedroom without any obstacles. Jian Wen paid special attention to it in his heart, looked out the window of the corridor, and found that the master bedroom was indeed facing the gate of the courtyard.
The man and woman standing at the window that he saw outside the door were indeed the host and hostess of the Jiang family.
When Jian Wen and the others arrived, he saw the host and the housekeeper standing at the door of the master bedroom discussing something, he vaguely heard the host Jiang Zhengyin say to the housekeeper regretfully: "The child is gone."
The butler asked solemnly, "Can't it be dissected?"
Jiang Zhengyin shook his head with a dejected expression. When he saw a player coming, he put away his expression and raised his chin to the butler: "You entertain me here, and I'll arrange the funeral."
He nodded directly at the player as a greeting, and then passed by, his face was as rigid and serious as ever, without the grief of his wife's death, and the anxiety of his daughter's disappearance without a whereabouts.
Jian Wen looked back at Jiang Zhengyin's back, and saw a drop of reddish-brown blood on the cuff of his white shirt.
Jian Wen frowned.
"Everyone, please come in." Jiang Zhe greeted the butler. The butler didn't shy away from allowing everyone to go in to find clues. He also specially reminded, "Madam's death is a bit scary, I hope everyone is mentally prepared."
How scary is difficult production?
They didn't know why the housekeeper said that until they entered the room and saw the pregnant woman with a big belly lying on the bed.
When the pregnant woman died, her eyes were wide open, full of horror. She didn't seem to die of dystocia, but more like she was frightened to death by something terrible.
The pregnant woman was covered with a thin quilt, and the lower half of the quilt was stained red with blood, which turned black.
After asking Jiang Zhe for permission, Xiaobai mustered up the courage to lift the quilt on the pregnant woman and saw a strange scene.
The pregnant woman was still wearing a nightgown, which was already stained red with her own blood, and the bed sheet was also scarlet.
Amid all the blood, the blue and white belly was particularly eye-catching.But her nightgown was not pulled up, it was stretched open, and on the bulging belly, there were child's palm prints, densely packed with bruises, which were the palm prints of babies of all sizes.
Xiao Bai was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he snuggled into Jiang Zhe's arms and shivered: "Is this really a dystocia? The child died too?"
When Jian Wen saw Xiaobai say that the child was dead, his belly seemed to tremble slightly, and when he looked again, it was gone.
The blue-white belly is the color of death, and the bruised palm prints seem to be pressed from the inside, revealing an indescribable weirdness.
Jiang Zhe hugged Xiaobai and walked out: "Yes, you can't enjoy this blessing if you are so lucky. What's there to see? Let's go. I'll take you to Jiang Nuan's room to have a look."
It can be said that Jiang Zhe had never respected this stepmother, even after she died, she did not show any respect at all.And the housekeeper at the side, Jiang Zhengyin who left, couldn't see how much he valued this young hostess. In this case, why did Jiang Zhengyin marry her in the first place?
Jane Wen was puzzled.
He didn't believe that Jiang Zhengyin was the kind of man who would marry a woman responsibly after sleeping with a woman. If so, he wouldn't marry so many wives.
There are housekeepers and servants in the hostess' room, and they don't want to be too blatant if they want to continue searching, and compared to the hostess, the tasks assigned by the game are more important.
A group of players followed Jiang Zhe to Jiang Nuan's room.
Jiang Nuan and Jiang Zhe shared a small two-story western-style building, next to the main building, with Jiang Nuan on the left and Jiang Zhe on the right.
After Jiang Nuan disappeared, the Xiaoyanglou was still being cleaned. When Jiang Zhe took the players there, he happened to meet the maids cleaning.
"It's here, you can take a look." Jiang Zhe slid his arm around Xiaobai's shoulder, and said in an ambiguous tone, "Xiaobai, Jiang Nuan's garden is very nice, shall we go for a stroll?"
"Okay, I like flowers the most." Xiaobai raised his voice intentionally with a smile, suggesting to other players, "Then let's go now, there are too many people here, I just want the two of us, a two-person world~"
"Okay, I'll take you to enjoy the world of two."
The two fell in love and left. When the master left, the male servants were nothing to fear. The player found an excuse to send them away, and then began to search everywhere with their own abilities.
"I found the baby bottle." Xiao Ai was surprised to be the first to find the suspicious item, and found a pink plastic baby bottle under the sofa in the living room, "Strange, isn't Jiang Nuan underage, why is there a baby bottle?"
Of course, the player has no way to explain it, and can only work harder to find clues.
Huo Sheng grabbed Jiang Nuan's bedroom as quickly as possible.The players have scruples about each other, and they don't feel at ease completely leaving their backs to other companions who don't trust them. Seeing that Huo Sheng and Jian Wen chose the bedroom, the other players each chose a room, avoiding other players to search alone.
Jian Wen stood in front of the photo wall in Jiang Nuan's bedroom and observed carefully.Jiang Nuan seems to have a hobby of photography, and there is a special darkroom to develop photos. The darkroom is in the basement on the first floor and is occupied by other players.
The photo wall is very delicately arranged, the photography techniques are very mature, the colors are bright, with a vibrant charm, and many photos have their own name signature: warm.
Jian Wen had seen Jiang Nuan's photo in Jiang Zhe's place, wearing a school uniform and looking like a well-behaved outstanding student.But on the photo wall, there is a lively and cheerful girl with high popularity and many friends.
There are photos of Jiang Nuan with different people on the photo wall, both men and women, most of them are of the same age, and every photo is full of smiles.Traveling, parties, concerts, amusement parks, music festivals, it seems that Jiang Nuan shows the warmest and happiest memories in his life.
However, Huo Sheng came over and whispered to Jian Wen: "I found a photo album."
Jian Wen saw that Huo Sheng's attitude was unusual, and the two closed the door deliberately first, and when they looked through the album, they found that the style in the album was completely opposite.
The bloody wound on the arm was self-mutilated, and the tongue was deliberately strangled by the neck with a rope. From the shooting angle, it seems that I am holding a camera with one hand to shoot myself.
Jian Wen only flipped through the first few photos, and was out of breath by the gloom and mania conveyed in the pictures.
"Has she arrived in the second term?" Jian Wen didn't notice anything wrong at first, Huo Sheng turned to the back directly, and the last few photos were a group photo of the two of them, one was Jiang Nuan, and the other woman had a strange face. The photos are all in black and white, in a nostalgic style.
Each photo is marked with a big red cross, which is particularly dazzling on black and white photos.
"This is?" Jian Wen's first reaction came from his experience as a teacher. The students hated his classmates and drew an x on his profile picture, but the second reaction was the sense of crisis developed from the game. These red xs, and others mean.
"One, two, three, four, five." Huo Sheng counted backwards from the end of the album, and then between the black and white group photo and the dark selfie, there was a thin stack of blank album pages.
"Five black and white group photos with x, five women." Huo Sheng said seriously, "I suspect that they are Jiang Zhengyin's first five wives."
In the black and white group photos, except for the second one, Jiang Nuan was leaning on the woman's shoulder with a smile on her face. The rest of the photos were all expressionless, with thick bangs blocking her eyes, a gloomy and numb expression, and a stiff smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Wait, isn't Jiang Nuan born to his second wife? The first photo?"
Just as Jian Wen raised doubts, Huo Sheng closed the album suddenly: "There are footsteps!" After saying that, the album disappeared in his hands immediately.
The closed door was turned open, and Lu Daniu poked his head out from the door, scratching the back of his head with a simple smile: "Brother Hero, have you finished searching your bedroom? How about we exchange each other?"
Jian Wen's eyes darkened slightly, and here he is again, this act of pretending to be honest and honest.
He said cleanly, "No change."
Lu Daniu completely ignored his answer and looked at Huo Sheng: "Brother Hero, let's change?"
Huo Sheng: "No change."
Lu Daniu couldn't hold back his smile, and there was a fleeting gloomy look in his eyes. He stood up straight and said in a strange tone: "I've heard that my wife is strictly controlled, but this is the first time I've heard that my younger brother is strictly controlled. Is it true that the heroes are brothers?" Can't you be your brother's master?"
Jian Wen sneered "Oh", and put his arms around Huo Sheng's shoulders: "You are wrong, he is also a strict wife."
Huo Sheng:...
Lu Daniu:......
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's my sister-in-law." Lu Daniu didn't believe that the two had that kind of relationship at all, and deliberately called the disgusting person Jian Wen's sister-in-law.
With a thicker skin, Jian Wen is not afraid: "Hey, little brother Lu, what can I do to honor your brother and sister-in-law? How about honoring your elder brother and sister-in-law with the clue you found just now?"
Lu Daniu had a beeping dog expression on his face, and looked at Jian Wen with full disgust. He didn't want to say a word, turned around and left.
When Lu Daniu left, Huo Sheng said silently: "Killing one thousand enemies hurts eight hundred?"
"Wrong, up to five hundred. It's you who hurt, not me." He had a thick skin and bounced back the damage.
Huo Sheng:...
When looking for clues after that, I don't know if they used up their good luck. They didn't find any useful clues in the bedroom.When Huo Sheng heard footsteps again, he saw Jiang Zhe and Xiao Bai coming back from the window, and Jian Wen ransacked the entire photo wall without stopping.
"Your method is like a devil entering the village. It's a pity not to be a bandit." When Huo Sheng said this, he quickly stuffed all the photo walls into the space with his hands.
Jian Wen hooked Huo Sheng's chin frivolously: "If you want to be a bandit, you will be robbed, and I will snatch you home as Mrs. Yazhai~"
Huo Sheng expressionless: "Oh."
I have heard too much swearing, and I have immunity.
It was getting late at this time, and Jiang Zhe also started to chase people away. Even if the player did not find any clues, he had to leave Jiang Nuan's residence and return to the main building.
Jiang Zhengyin and his wife lived in the main building. In addition to the kitchen on the first floor, it is said that the housekeeper also lives on the first floor, but Jian Wen and the others did not see which room the housekeeper lived in. They only felt that the housekeeper was busy outside day and night.
Players lived on the second floor, and Jiang Zhengyin and his wife lived on the fifth floor on the top floor.
After dinner as usual, this time the male servants seem to be busy with the hostess' funeral, no one is staring at the player, and the player is much freer.
Huo Sheng winked at Diya, and Diya cooperatively pulled the male servant standing at the door to chat and divert his attention. Taking this opportunity, Huo Sheng led Jian Wen out of the main building, leaving the building at night for the first time.
"Follow me." Huo Sheng walked in one direction with a clear goal.
The street lights in the courtyard have been turned on, and the moonlight in the sky is also very bright. The sight of the courtyard at night is not affected, and it is easy to find the owner if there is a person coming and going.The two deliberately walked between the wall and the tree, hiding their figures in the darkness.
Jian Wen carefully concealed his figure, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
"I put a bionic locator on the corpse's leg, and now the corpse has been moved." Huo Sheng took out his phone, and the phone was set to night mode. There was a striking red dot moving on the dark screen, and the distance from them Getting closer.
The mobile phone has no signal in the game world and cannot make calls. Jian Wen also never imagined that it can display the location of the locator.
Huo Sheng explained: "This locator is also a prop. It looks like a Band-Aid. If you don't look carefully, you will think it is human skin. It won't be used in the real world."
This explanation made Jian Wen even more greedy for props.
After successfully passing the game this time, he can become a full-time player and own props. Jian Wen silently cheers for himself in his heart.
The two sneaked towards the direction where the locator was moving. Huo Sheng's five senses were more acute and walked in front. While walking, Huo Sheng suddenly stretched out his arms and stopped Jian Wen behind him.
Huo Sheng made a soft gesture on his lips: "It's the housekeeper."
They hid behind the woods and watched the butler lead the male servant to carry a black coffin to the back of the courtyard.
Burial immediately after death, this weird practice made the two peeping intently.
The butler led the team to the back of the courtyard, where there was a whole row of evergreen cypress trees. After bypassing the cypress trees, the butler stopped in front of a black iron gate, took out the key to open the iron gate, and stood beside the iron gate Watching the servants carry the coffin out.
After all the male servants left, the butler stood by the iron gate, looking around as if consciously.
Huo Sheng and Jian Wen hid behind the cypress tree, holding their breath and concentrating.
The butler frowned, walked out of the iron gate himself, closed the door again, and locked it from the outside.
Fortunately, there were many trees in the yard, Jian Wen breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to follow when Huo Sheng held Jian Wen down and told him to wait.
Sure enough, after the door was bolted loudly and loudly, the iron door was pushed open again. The butler stood at the door and looked around again.
Jian Wen's understanding of the housekeeper has improved to a higher level, but she didn't expect to make strange noises, pretending to lock the door and leave.
The butler stood in the dark and sneered: "Come out, I have seen you."
Startled, Jian Wen looked at Huo Sheng, who shook his head at him.
Is it a scam?
Jian Wen and Huo Sheng were quietly lurking in the darkness, but they heard the butler's footsteps and came towards them.
one step, two steps, three steps
The distance was getting closer, Jian Wen put his hand on his waist, where was the dagger lent to him by Huo Sheng.Huo Sheng took out the gun and held it tightly.
The butler walked to the front of the tree. Through the gaps in the tree, Jian Wen saw the butler looking around outside, but turned around and left as if he didn't find anything.
Jian Wen's palms were full of sweat. The two of them were hiding in the gap between the tree and the wall just now, but now they are hiding in the gap between the trees. If they hadn't been squeezed in the middle like this, the housekeeper would have bumped into each other as soon as he turned a corner. .
This time, the butler really left. He went back to the iron gate, locked the door, and went about his business.
Huo Sheng thought about the butler's caution, and waited for a long time before opening the door with the universal key.Opening the door, they were stunned by the sight before them.
No one expected that just behind the courtyard of this mansion was a cemetery!
There are still cypress trees on the outside, and inside the densely packed cypress trees, there are grave mounds, some with monuments, some without monuments, densely packed, at first glance there are hundreds of graves.
And at a corner of the grave, there are male servants who are digging the grave for burial.
The distance was too far, and they couldn't see who was who. They could only see that the servants were putting the coffin into the pit, and there was a man standing beside him as a conductor, who seemed to be a housekeeper.
"Why is the family cemetery so close to the back of the house?" Jian Wen felt inexplicably strange.
How can anyone leave the cemetery behind their house, not afraid that the family members will feel lonely down there, and dream of bringing everyone underground to reunite?
Huo Sheng said, "It's not the family cemetery, you count the ones with monuments."
"Five." After Huo Sheng reminded, Jian Wen counted carefully and found something was wrong, "The first five wives?"
In addition to the sixth wife who is being buried and has not yet erected a monument, this cemetery is like Jiang Zhengyin's harem.
Huo Sheng nodded: "His ex-wives are all dead."
Jian Wen clicked his tongue in amazement: "Ba Zi Ke wife is not so powerful, right?"
Although they were talking about gramming their wives, the common thought that emerged in their minds was murder.
Killing a wife and begging for a general corresponds to the six wives who died. It is completely correct. Now we need to find out what "general" refers to.
"What's the benefit of killing one's own wife? To get her natal family's inheritance?" Jian Wen speculated with the bloodiest conspiracy theory, when a cold voice suddenly came from behind.
"It's a curse."
"Ah? What did you say?" Jian Wen turned her head and saw Huo Sheng's attitude of being ready for battle, and the butler standing behind Huo Sheng with a gloomy expression.
The butler sneered, his teeth gleaming white under the moonlight: "I've caught you."
The deceased last night was a pregnant woman. After giving birth, the child was taken away and brutally murdered. The hostess in the house was also a pregnant woman. Could it be the same?
But I heard Diya say: "I died in childbirth."
"What?!" Jian Wen frowned.Dystocia, wasn't he killed?
"Let's go, let's go take a look." Huo Sheng walked out.
The three of them went downstairs together, only to realize that none of the male servants in the corridor had seen them.
I don't want them to appear, and the male servant stares at each other like a goalkeeper.I hope that when someone leads the way, no one can be found.
The three of them had to find the maid or housekeeper first. On the way, Jianwen asked Diya, "By the way, where's your roommate?"
Di Ya said unhappily: "The suitor knocked on the door early in the morning to deliver flowers, woke us up, and said he wanted to give Xiao Ai a surprise, I just couldn't sleep after being woken up by him and went for a walk in the garden. This news. Now Xiao Ai is catching up on sleep, saying that he has a headache because of his quarrel."
"I think that male servant is weird. He doesn't like the way he looks at Xiao Ai." Relying on a woman's instinct, Diya frowned and confirmed.
"Besides, the lights in our room just turned on in the morning. It was Xiao Ai who went to the bathroom, but unexpectedly, the maid knocked on the door to deliver flowers. I always think that time is too coincidental, as if he was looking at our room from the window."
Such a creepy statement made Jian Wen immediately think of last night's experience: "By the way, did you have any nightmares last night?"
Huo Sheng thought about it carefully: "I just felt as if I heard some movement in the room, and the sound of water, and I seemed to be crushed by a ghost on the bed in a daze, and I couldn't move, but fell asleep again without knowing it. "
Jian Wen: It's really good to sleep well, it's related to the safety of life, he almost died and Huo Sheng slept so soundly.
Diya thought about it seriously, then shook her head: "No, I was also worried that something would happen at night, but nothing happened."
Jian Wen had a bad feeling in her heart.
Why was he the only one who saw that bloody and terrifying scene?
Does the danger in the prophecy really mean that "male players" will be very dangerous and are the primary hunting targets of ghosts?
While meditating all the way, Jian Wen tried hard to recall the scene he saw last night, and recalled the details in order to find more clues.
When they went downstairs, they found that Jiang Zhe was already sitting at the head of the long dining table, with a strange smile on his face: "Oh, let me tell you some sad news. My poor stepmother passed away this morning. In order to mourn her, These days, only vegetarian meals are available."

Jiang Zhe frivolously raised Xiaobai's chin: "Okay, baby, I'll take you up there to have a look, and then go to Jiang Nuan's room to have a look as well."
"You are the best~" Xiaobai leaned into Jiang Zhe's arms, and glanced at the other players proudly.
Jian Wen didn't have much malice towards Xiaobai's actions. In the death game, anyone who can survive is a strong player, but he didn't expect that Xiaobai would not go alone in private, but let Jiang Zhe take all the players.Xiaobai is much smarter and more generous than he imagined.
With Jiang Zhe leading the way, they arrived at the master's bedroom without any obstacles. Jian Wen paid special attention to it in his heart, looked out the window of the corridor, and found that the master bedroom was indeed facing the gate of the courtyard.
The man and woman standing at the window that he saw outside the door were indeed the host and hostess of the Jiang family.
When Jian Wen and the others arrived, he saw the host and the housekeeper standing at the door of the master bedroom discussing something, he vaguely heard the host Jiang Zhengyin say to the housekeeper regretfully: "The child is gone."
The butler asked solemnly, "Can't it be dissected?"

Jian Wen frowned.

The blue-white belly is the color of death, and the bruised palm prints seem to be pressed from the inside, revealing an indescribable weirdness.
Jiang Zhe hugged Xiaobai and walked out: "Yes, you can't enjoy this blessing if you are so lucky. What's there to see? Let's go. I'll take you to Jiang Nuan's room to have a look."

"Okay, I like flowers the most." Xiaobai raised his voice intentionally with a smile, suggesting to other players, "Then let's go now, there are too many people here, I just want the two of us, a two-person world~"
"Okay, I'll take you to enjoy the world of two."
The two fell in love and left. When the master left, the male servants were nothing to fear. The player found an excuse to send them away, and then began to search everywhere with their own abilities.
"I found the baby bottle." Xiao Ai was surprised to be the first to find the suspicious item, and found a pink plastic baby bottle under the sofa in the living room, "Strange, isn't Jiang Nuan underage, why is there a baby bottle?"
Of course, the player has no way to explain it, and can only work harder to find clues.
Huo Sheng grabbed Jiang Nuan's bedroom as quickly as possible.The players have scruples about each other, and they don't feel at ease completely leaving their backs to other companions who don't trust them. Seeing that Huo Sheng and Jian Wen chose the bedroom, the other players each chose a room, avoiding other players to search alone.
Jian Wen stood in front of the photo wall in Jiang Nuan's bedroom and observed carefully.Jiang Nuan seems to have a hobby of photography, and there is a special darkroom to develop photos. The darkroom is in the basement on the first floor and is occupied by other players.
The photo wall is very delicately arranged, the photography techniques are very mature, the colors are bright, with a vibrant charm, and many photos have their own name signature: warm.
Jian Wen had seen Jiang Nuan's photo in Jiang Zhe's place, wearing a school uniform and looking like a well-behaved outstanding student.But on the photo wall, there is a lively and cheerful girl with high popularity and many friends.
There are photos of Jiang Nuan with different people on the photo wall, both men and women, most of them are of the same age, and every photo is full of smiles.Traveling, parties, concerts, amusement parks, music festivals, it seems that Jiang Nuan shows the warmest and happiest memories in his life.
However, Huo Sheng came over and whispered to Jian Wen: "I found a photo album."
Jian Wen saw that Huo Sheng's attitude was unusual, and the two closed the door deliberately first, and when they looked through the album, they found that the style in the album was completely opposite.
The bloody wound on the arm was self-mutilated, and the tongue was deliberately strangled by the neck with a rope. From the shooting angle, it seems that I am holding a camera with one hand to shoot myself.
Jian Wen only flipped through the first few photos, and was out of breath by the gloom and mania conveyed in the pictures.
"Has she arrived in the second term?" Jian Wen didn't notice anything wrong at first, Huo Sheng turned to the back directly, and the last few photos were a group photo of the two of them, one was Jiang Nuan, and the other woman had a strange face. The photos are all in black and white, in a nostalgic style.
Each photo is marked with a big red cross, which is particularly dazzling on black and white photos.
"This is?" Jian Wen's first reaction came from his experience as a teacher. The students hated his classmates and drew an x on his profile picture, but the second reaction was the sense of crisis developed from the game. These red xs, and others mean.
"One, two, three, four, five." Huo Sheng counted backwards from the end of the album, and then between the black and white group photo and the dark selfie, there was a thin stack of blank album pages.
"Five black and white group photos with x, five women." Huo Sheng said seriously, "I suspect that they are Jiang Zhengyin's first five wives."
In the black and white group photos, except for the second one, Jiang Nuan was leaning on the woman's shoulder with a smile on her face. The rest of the photos were all expressionless, with thick bangs blocking her eyes, a gloomy and numb expression, and a stiff smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Wait, isn't Jiang Nuan born to his second wife? The first photo?"
Just as Jian Wen raised doubts, Huo Sheng closed the album suddenly: "There are footsteps!" After saying that, the album disappeared in his hands immediately.
The closed door was turned open, and Lu Daniu poked his head out from the door, scratching the back of his head with a simple smile: "Brother Hero, have you finished searching your bedroom? How about we exchange each other?"
Jian Wen's eyes darkened slightly, and here he is again, this act of pretending to be honest and honest.
He said cleanly, "No change."
Lu Daniu completely ignored his answer and looked at Huo Sheng: "Brother Hero, let's change?"
Huo Sheng: "No change."
Lu Daniu couldn't hold back his smile, and there was a fleeting gloomy look in his eyes. He stood up straight and said in a strange tone: "I've heard that my wife is strictly controlled, but this is the first time I've heard that my younger brother is strictly controlled. Is it true that the heroes are brothers?" Can't you be your brother's master?"
Jian Wen sneered "Oh", and put his arms around Huo Sheng's shoulders: "You are wrong, he is also a strict wife."
Huo Sheng:...
Lu Daniu:......
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's my sister-in-law." Lu Daniu didn't believe that the two had that kind of relationship at all, and deliberately called the disgusting person Jian Wen's sister-in-law.
With a thicker skin, Jian Wen is not afraid: "Hey, little brother Lu, what can I do to honor your brother and sister-in-law? How about honoring your elder brother and sister-in-law with the clue you found just now?"
Lu Daniu had a beeping dog expression on his face, and looked at Jian Wen with full disgust. He didn't want to say a word, turned around and left.
When Lu Daniu left, Huo Sheng said silently: "Killing one thousand enemies hurts eight hundred?"
"Wrong, up to five hundred. It's you who hurt, not me." He had a thick skin and bounced back the damage.
Huo Sheng:...
When looking for clues after that, I don't know if they used up their good luck. They didn't find any useful clues in the bedroom.When Huo Sheng heard footsteps again, he saw Jiang Zhe and Xiao Bai coming back from the window, and Jian Wen ransacked the entire photo wall without stopping.
"Your method is like a devil entering the village. It's a pity not to be a bandit." When Huo Sheng said this, he quickly stuffed all the photo walls into the space with his hands.
Jian Wen hooked Huo Sheng's chin frivolously: "If you want to be a bandit, you will be robbed, and I will snatch you home as Mrs. Yazhai~"
Huo Sheng expressionless: "Oh."
I have heard too much swearing, and I have immunity.
It was getting late at this time, and Jiang Zhe also started to chase people away. Even if the player did not find any clues, he had to leave Jiang Nuan's residence and return to the main building.
Jiang Zhengyin and his wife lived in the main building. In addition to the kitchen on the first floor, it is said that the housekeeper also lives on the first floor, but Jian Wen and the others did not see which room the housekeeper lived in. They only felt that the housekeeper was busy outside day and night.
Players lived on the second floor, and Jiang Zhengyin and his wife lived on the fifth floor on the top floor.
After dinner as usual, this time the male servants seem to be busy with the hostess' funeral, no one is staring at the player, and the player is much freer.
Huo Sheng winked at Diya, and Diya cooperatively pulled the male servant standing at the door to chat and divert his attention. Taking this opportunity, Huo Sheng led Jian Wen out of the main building, leaving the building at night for the first time.
"Follow me." Huo Sheng walked in one direction with a clear goal.
The street lights in the courtyard have been turned on, and the moonlight in the sky is also very bright. The sight of the courtyard at night is not affected, and it is easy to find the owner if there is a person coming and going.The two deliberately walked between the wall and the tree, hiding their figures in the darkness.
Jian Wen carefully concealed his figure, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
"I put a bionic locator on the corpse's leg, and now the corpse has been moved." Huo Sheng took out his phone, and the phone was set to night mode. There was a striking red dot moving on the dark screen, and the distance from them Getting closer.
The mobile phone has no signal in the game world and cannot make calls. Jian Wen also never imagined that it can display the location of the locator.
Huo Sheng explained: "This locator is also a prop. It looks like a Band-Aid. If you don't look carefully, you will think it is human skin. It won't be used in the real world."
This explanation made Jian Wen even more greedy for props.
After successfully passing the game this time, he can become a full-time player and own props. Jian Wen silently cheers for himself in his heart.
The two sneaked towards the direction where the locator was moving. Huo Sheng's five senses were more acute and walked in front. While walking, Huo Sheng suddenly stretched out his arms and stopped Jian Wen behind him.
Huo Sheng made a soft gesture on his lips: "It's the housekeeper."
They hid behind the woods and watched the butler lead the male servant to carry a black coffin to the back of the courtyard.
Burial immediately after death, this weird practice made the two peeping intently.
The butler led the team to the back of the courtyard, where there was a whole row of evergreen cypress trees. After bypassing the cypress trees, the butler stopped in front of a black iron gate, took out the key to open the iron gate, and stood beside the iron gate Watching the servants carry the coffin out.
After all the male servants left, the butler stood by the iron gate, looking around as if consciously.
Huo Sheng and Jian Wen hid behind the cypress tree, holding their breath and concentrating.
The butler frowned, walked out of the iron gate himself, closed the door again, and locked it from the outside.
Fortunately, there were many trees in the yard, Jian Wen breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to follow when Huo Sheng held Jian Wen down and told him to wait.
Sure enough, after the door was bolted loudly and loudly, the iron door was pushed open again. The butler stood at the door and looked around again.
Jian Wen's understanding of the housekeeper has improved to a higher level, but she didn't expect to make strange noises, pretending to lock the door and leave.
The butler stood in the dark and sneered: "Come out, I have seen you."
Startled, Jian Wen looked at Huo Sheng, who shook his head at him.
Is it a scam?
Jian Wen and Huo Sheng were quietly lurking in the darkness, but they heard the butler's footsteps and came towards them.
one step, two steps, three steps
The distance was getting closer, Jian Wen put his hand on his waist, where was the dagger lent to him by Huo Sheng.Huo Sheng took out the gun and held it tightly.
The butler walked to the front of the tree. Through the gaps in the tree, Jian Wen saw the butler looking around outside, but turned around and left as if he didn't find anything.
Jian Wen's palms were full of sweat. The two of them were hiding in the gap between the tree and the wall just now, but now they are hiding in the gap between the trees. If they hadn't been squeezed in the middle like this, the housekeeper would have bumped into each other as soon as he turned a corner. .
This time, the butler really left. He went back to the iron gate, locked the door, and went about his business.
Huo Sheng thought about the butler's caution, and waited for a long time before opening the door with the universal key.Opening the door, they were stunned by the sight before them.
No one expected that just behind the courtyard of this mansion was a cemetery!
There are still cypress trees on the outside, and inside the densely packed cypress trees, there are grave mounds, some with monuments, some without monuments, densely packed, at first glance there are hundreds of graves.
And at a corner of the grave, there are male servants who are digging the grave for burial.
The distance was too far, and they couldn't see who was who. They could only see that the servants were putting the coffin into the pit, and there was a man standing beside him as a conductor, who seemed to be a housekeeper.
"Why is the family cemetery so close to the back of the house?" Jian Wen felt inexplicably strange.
How can anyone leave the cemetery behind their house, not afraid that the family members will feel lonely down there, and dream of bringing everyone underground to reunite?
Huo Sheng said, "It's not the family cemetery, you count the ones with monuments."
"Five." After Huo Sheng reminded, Jian Wen counted carefully and found something was wrong, "The first five wives?"
In addition to the sixth wife who is being buried and has not yet erected a monument, this cemetery is like Jiang Zhengyin's harem.
Huo Sheng nodded: "His ex-wives are all dead."
Jian Wen clicked his tongue in amazement: "Ba Zi Ke wife is not so powerful, right?"
Although they were talking about gramming their wives, the common thought that emerged in their minds was murder.
Killing a wife and begging for a general corresponds to the six wives who died. It is completely correct. Now we need to find out what "general" refers to.
"What's the benefit of killing one's own wife? To get her natal family's inheritance?" Jian Wen speculated with the bloodiest conspiracy theory, when a cold voice suddenly came from behind.
"It's a curse."
"Ah? What did you say?" Jian Wen turned her head and saw Huo Sheng's attitude of being ready for battle, and the butler standing behind Huo Sheng with a gloomy expression.
The butler sneered, his teeth gleaming white under the moonlight: "I've caught you."
