absurd deduction game.

Chapter 203 Alice Hell (36) - Annex Building
There are two hidden air corridors between the auxiliary building and the main building, which are on the second and fourth floors respectively. Yu Xing walked behind the butler without encountering any ghosts to stop him.

It seems that those ghosts extended from evil can distinguish the employees in the castle.

The butler helped him blatantly. Yu Xing believed that even though Alice was an ugly and irrational monster now, with her control over the castle, she might have discovered her butler's "surrender to the enemy".

He had to be quick, or Alice might wander over.

Yu Xing followed the butler along a route that he hadn't taken before, turned a few inconspicuous forks, and finally saw the so-called air corridor.

The appearance of the corridor was mostly covered by the exquisite and complex black iron railing door. Since the corridor was closed on all sides, he could not see the annex building in advance.

Coincidentally, the door had already been opened, and it was concealed vainly, saving Yu Xing the trouble of finding a way to get the key.

"It seems that someone has already gone to the auxiliary building." The butler was a little surprised, because he knew that the two corridors were locked, and the keys were guarded by two physical monsters with the strongest "combat power".

Yu Xing responded indifferently.

Huai and Huang Bai had already said that they were going to find the corridor. After such a long time, with the abilities of those two people, it is not surprising that they found the destination.

Seeing Yu Xing's unsurprised expression, the housekeeper couldn't help but think that if someone got the key unknowingly and entered the annex, it meant that among the group of tourists who came this time, the one in front of him was not the only one who was smart.

Perhaps... Just like the previous fire, the tourists might really succeed. After all, this time, compared with the first time, there is a lot more information and experience.

After taking a reassurance, the housekeeper stopped and pushed Yu Xing: "Go in, Alice still lives on the fifth floor. I must stay in the main building, otherwise, it's really the same as notifying Alice directly. "

Yu Xing nodded. He didn't expect the butler to lead him directly to Alice's bedroom. The butler's job was to do logistics in the lobby, and there must be restrictions on entering and leaving the annex.

In fact, the housekeeper had already helped him to the extreme to find the way to enter the annex building without any effort, and he couldn't ask for more.

Yu Xing walked to the railing door, flicked his fingers lightly, and the door opened slightly to a gap for one person to enter.

He paused when he stepped out, and then turned back: "... Is there anything else I should pay attention to?"

The old butler thought for a while: "There are no monsters of yours in the auxiliary building, but you have to be careful to be discovered by the nuns. Neither I, the nuns, nor the chef have any ability to kill people, but we have ways to imprison tourists and notify Alice. The chef doesn't care. But the nun is loyal to Alice, if you are caught by her, you will face Alice in advance."

"Thank you." Yu Xing's eyes under the black hair flashed a glimmer of light, seeing the old butler's tall and straight figure, decent attire, reduced to a decoration in the resplendent old castle, he nodded imperceptibly, and did It was a solemn gesture for him, "And...goodbye."

If he goes well, he may never see him again.

The butler will follow the collapse of Alice's hell foundation, and walk towards the destination he should have arrived long ago.

death.

For the steward, death is a relief. He is not young anymore, and his hair is all silvery white. Perhaps sleeping in the ground without being disturbed by these messy things is what he has been pursuing.

No longer looking after the housekeeper, Yu Xing's eyes were slightly cold, and he walked step by step along the corridor. There was a light in the corridor, and he put his fire pocket that would not last long into his pocket again.

Soon, he walked to the other side of the corridor. Since the annex building was where Alice and the staff lived, there was no door blocking this side of the annex building, probably because he felt more at ease with the staff.

After passing the corridor, a small hall came into view.

The hall is empty and beautifully furnished. The walls are covered with pieces of hollowed-out gold leaf, drawn in luxurious patterns.

Close to the wall, circles of thin white ropes hang interlaced, and photos of the same size are clamped on the ropes.

In an instant, Yu Xing recalled the mysterious witch's time hut in Alice Paradise.

The front hall of the time hut is also like this. The photos show the things that everyone has experienced in their lives. Some are people, some are scenery, and the blurred memories are clearly reflected in these photos.

It seems that Alice kept the time cabin and transplanted it into the auxiliary building?
Yu Xing casually looked at a few photos, then raised his eyebrows.

not completely.

The photo did show the time, but it wasn't the tourist's anymore, it was—Alice's.

The steampunk style was unscrupulously displayed in front of Yu Xing. Yu Xing saw the familiar jumping machine, the clock tower, and the claw machine playing weird songs.

His gaze moved to the side, and the next picture showed a seed being handed over by a hand hidden in a black sleeve.

In the next one, a budding rose grows in a flowerpot, and the soil in the flowerpot is soaked in blood, like red soil.

Yu Xing stared at the black sleeve for a while, and he knew that, according to the housekeeper, the owner of the sleeve and palm was the great wizard.

After a while, Yu Xing lost interest in continuing to visit. In addition to the growth records of roses, these photos also contain the moments of tragic deaths of many tourists. Yu Xing has no interest in seeing how other people died.He looked around for the last time, shook his head and said, "...Unfortunately...that witch is not here."

The woman with noble and indifferent expression left a deep impression on Yu Xing. She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, and her voice was also nice, but she was a little nagging.

And that kitten named Doom, who seemed to like him, but he didn't like a cat that would compete with lazy people like him.

Well, by the way, the witch gave him an item called [Time Engrave] at that time, until now he hasn't found any use of [Time Engrave].

Wait... are witches and wizards related?When I first saw it, the witch seemed to say that she came here to work part-time?
The word part-time job is sometimes used by gamers, because there are various "part-time job markets" in the system panel.

"Well... Forget it, it might be a coincidence that they all carry the word 'Witch'."

Shaking off the thoughts in his head, Yu Xing stretched and walked towards the exit of the hall.

He just wants to find the fifth floor quickly and go to the Rose Tunnel to meet with Zeng Lai.

It would be even better if we could meet Huang Bai and Huai on the way. Those two seem to be very capable. If they join, the plan to destroy Rose will definitely go much smoother—the premise is that Alice’s passage on the fifth floor, no Entry is limited.

Behind the exit is a corridor. From here, the traces of roses gradually intensify.The wall is inlaid with rose-shaped decorations, red and rotten, whether it is an illusion or reality, Yu Xing can always smell a faint fragrance of roses.

It seems that Alice herself prefers roses since she obtained human skin through roses.

He sniffed uncomfortably. He felt that the smell was not pleasant at all. The scent of flowers was not pure, and there were many unfriendly smells in it, such as the smell of rust, such as rot. The inferior perfume worn by the women who surrounded him to confess his love.

The only effect is probably refreshing.

"Yiqing." He called softly.

Since going to the library and seeing hysteria, Yiqing hid in the dagger again and pretended to be dead, as quiet as if he didn't exist.

The dagger at his waist moved, and the blue mist came out of his sweater, leaving a cold touch on his abdominal muscles.

"Here we come." Yiqing appeared in the green mist and turned into a human figure floating in the air, "What?"

Yu Xing: "It's okay, your green smoke smells like bamboo." It smells better than the pungent rose smell.

Yiqing understood what he meant, and didn't care about being regarded as a bamboo-flavored aromatherapy, but felt that this person was less and less treating him as a green ghost.

He first smiled amusedly, then opened the fan and shook it lightly, frowning slightly: "This is the auxiliary building? It is much smaller than the main building."

After all, the auxiliary building is newly built, and it only needs to provide the living function for the employees. Of course, it doesn't have to be too large. Compared with the main building, it can only be regarded as a small place.

Yu Xing let out a "hmm". Standing at his current angle, he could see an upward staircase and a downward staircase at the end of the corridor. Downwards, they are all normal ones that span one floor.

"Huh?" Yu Xing walked up without hesitation, and reached the next plane, which was the third floor, and there was another identical upward staircase.

He froze for a moment, and a thought came to him, "Is the space in the annex building normal?"

"Maybe," Yiqing said, "Why don't you go up sooner? Aren't you worried about that kid named Zeng Lai?"

"Yeah, although he won't fall into a situation of being at a loss after receiving my previous reminder, but I'm afraid that Alice will find out his location and go to him directly." While speaking, Yu Xing walked quickly again Climbing upstairs, the happy news was immediately confirmed.

The space in the annex building is really normal!
That is to say, its stairs are fixed at the corners, stacked up layer by layer, not the maze-like structure in the main building that can drive people crazy.

If this is the case, then it will be easy for him to go to the fifth floor!
Soon, Yu Xing went straight to the fifth floor.

A strong smell of roses came over us. Large patches of red roses were planted on both sides of the corridor, packed in black porcelain vats. They were warm and deep, like burning red clouds, just like the one around the giant eyes above the castle. It looks like a circle, very nice.

Yiqing was standing there in Tsing Yi, which was supposed to be a collision of strong and elegant, but inexplicably, any bit of elegance was incompatible with this place, as if being excluded.

"I don't want to stay here." The ghost in green clothes floated directly behind Yu Xing, slightly off the ground, and put his hands on Yu Xing's shoulders, as if he was supporting Yu Xing as a railing. He put a little weight on it Going up made Yu Xing aware of his dislike.

Yu Xing himself didn't like these roses, but it was the first time he saw Yiqing showing disgust. You know, Yiqing didn't show any discomfort in the two deserted villages in the promotion game before.

He asked, "Why?"

Yiqing replied, "It's too dirty."

"Dirty?" Yu Xing didn't expect Yiqing's answer to be this. While walking along the sea of ​​flowers on both sides, he continued to ask Yiqing who was lying behind him, "Why is it dirty?"

Yiqing forcibly used his elegance to show a disdainful expression: "These flowers are all deliberately induced blood, crime and fear, which have run counter to what they need."

"It was originally a place for redemption and pursuit of the truth, but now it has degenerated into filth, isn't it filthy? This smell makes me want to vomit."

Only ghosts can feel the difference, because ghosts are most familiar with these negative feelings.

Yu Xing thought for a moment, then smiled: "You're right, it's dirty."

Because of her own desires, Alice has changed from a just manager of the paradise to a downright depraved person, and the great wizard "has contributed a lot."

If there is a chance...he really wants to see what kind of organization the "wizards" are and what kind of roles they play in the absurd world.

If it is an organization that can travel between different worlds... Does it mean that if he can understand this organization, he will be one step closer to the high-level secrets of the absurd deduction?
Of course, it seems too early to think about this now. Yu Xing walked all the way and opened the doors in the corridor. Behind these doors are some functional rooms, most of which are exhibition rooms, whether it is sculptures or oil paintings, handmade products or clothing, A dizzying amount.

From this, Yu Xing can basically confirm that only Alice lives on the entire fifth floor, and other employees live on other floors.

There are so many irrelevant rooms that the employees have no place to live.

Just when Yu Xing was looking at the last double door inlaid with gemstones of various colors, Yiqing who could not get off his body suddenly dissipated into green smoke, and his tone was gentle and steady but beyond doubt: "Hide."

Yu Xing's eyes froze, and out of trust in the green ghost, he squatted between two pots of rose bushes, hiding his figure with the help of the sticking out thorny branches.

After confirming that his position was not easy to be found, he turned his gaze and looked out from the gap between the flowers.

A black figure stood still not far away, as if he heard a little movement, he looked around suspiciously, and there was a lingering coldness on his expressionless pretty face.

Yu Xing narrowed his eyes and thought, why did the nuns go to this level?
His eyes moved down, and he saw that the nun was holding a golden watering pot in her hand. The spout protruded long and the top was in the shape of a wide disc.

"..."

Come to water the flowers on the fifth floor?
In the end, the nun found nothing, her gaze fell on the red flowers in front of her, and she raised the watering can to water the flowers.

The water jetting out of the long spout...is blood red.

The blood-colored liquid was poured on the roses, and suddenly, a scent that was a hundred times stronger than before filled the air and poured straight into Yu Xing's nose.
