Chapter 12 The Hidden Truth

"Tsk, why is that chick so scared? She actually locked the door for me!"

At the gate of the villa, Xu Shuo pressed the doorknob several times irritably, but the spare key couldn't open it. It was nothing more than the door was locked from the inside.

This anti-theft lock has no key at all and can only be opened from the inside.

When he saw Zhan Qian coming out from the outside, he suddenly wanted to see this woman's graceful appearance, so he quietly appeared to scare her, and the woman turned around and ran away in horror.

But now the door is still locked!

Xu Shuo took the doorknob angrily to vent his anger, then turned around and walked to the back of the villa. He found the window of his room, and first put the tools in through the gap.

The windows on the first floor are all equipped with anti-theft bars, so you can't get in through the windows, but you can barely climb up through the window eaves.

He was still teasing others for being a Spider-Man just now, and in a blink of an eye Xu Shuo himself was also stuck to the wall, climbing sideways with a vigorous posture, and using the hook rope all the way to the left room on the second floor.

Xu Shuo tried to pull down the window, but when the two thieves went in, they didn't lock the window, just in time for him to climb in.

Although the master bedroom was searched, it didn't seem to have changed in any way, and the antique vases on the cabinet were still intact.

After Xu Shuo came in through the window, he went straight to the door without looking sideways and opened it, and then he walked out like this swaggeringly.

The light in the study next to it was still on, and the door was slightly ajar. Xu Shuo glanced at it as he passed by. The two people inside were talking in a low voice with their backs to the door.

He turned out of the corridor, went down the stairs briskly, and returned to his room.

Xu Shuo changed his skirt and wig, and put all his used equipment back into the box, but the lock of the box had been chopped off by him just now, and now he could only buckle it.

After wiping his fingerprints and packing up all the evidence in the room, he went out again with the tin box in his arms.

In the silent and oppressive darkness, the young man walked through the night like no one else, and came to a door.

Xu Shuo found the spare key and opened the door, slipped in lightly, and then closed and locked the door smoothly, a set of movements was quieter than the sound of rain outside.

This is a servant's room.

The misty smoke that had been thrown in through the window before had taken effect. The girl on the bed was fast asleep. Xu Shuo took a look at her, and after making sure that he had found the right person, he stuffed the tin box deep under the girl's bed. There is also some cover up on the outside.

He didn't deliberately make an opening. If the searchers didn't find this place, then naturally nothing happened.

If you find it here...

That's none of his business!

Although it is also possible to destroy these things directly, compared to letting them find nothing, some plausible clues are the best arrangement.

There must always be someone to take the blame and confuse everyone after giving enough clues.

Who made him have a main mission that cannot be revealed.

Xu Shuo opened the task panel and looked at it. Even though he had done so many things tonight, the progress bar under the character card was only a little bit.

After all, for this character, revealing the truth to the public is what he is really obsessed with. The chef will choose to do it for today's dinner, probably because of the tourists who came to stay overnight.

Only foreigners will not scruple about this manor.

But now, the tourists who have become missionaries and entered the script will go all out to investigate everything.

The truth of the entire script needs to be deduced from their hands.

……

The light rain outside has stopped, and the entire villa under the night has completely fallen into silence. It is dormant in the deep mountains, like a wild beast waiting for its prey.

Xu Shuo left after putting away his things, but this time when he swaggered through the hall, he suddenly paused and looked up with some feeling.

Then, he saw outside the second corridor where the aisle turned left, there was a figure standing there quietly, the complexion reflected by the candle seemed a little surprised, but also because of the angle of the candle flame, her face became very strange. fear.

For a while, both sides fell silent.

Zhan Qian just casually glanced down when she returned to her room. After all, her door was close to the aisle, and the aisle faced a dark lobby.

She really just looked around unconsciously!
As a result, she suddenly saw a faint figure, and the next moment, the person she was watching immediately looked up.

Zhan Qian was so frightened that her little heart trembled, and her mind was full of "I was discovered"!
But then she realized that it's okay to be discovered, she was discovered by the housekeeper just now, and more importantly, she didn't do anything wrong!
She is a guest invited by the host!
So Zhan Qian regained her confidence, looked at the figure in the dark with an elegant and calm complexion, but after a while, that person withdrew his gaze, turned around and left as if he hadn't seen her.

Zhan Qian froze for a moment, then murmured: "What, so arrogant?"

She was sneaking around outside in the middle of the night, and she was found to be nothing. Zhan Qian didn't want to go into it at first. After all, she must not be the only one who has a mission, but now she is very curious about who that guy is.

It's a pity that there was no light on that man's body, and he couldn't see anything clearly. How did he wander outside in the dark?

Zhan Qian shook her head strangely, turned around and went back to her room, and locked it behind her back.

Just now I learned something from the housekeeper in the study, Zhan Qian sat on the bedside, took out a notebook and started to analyze.

You can't believe everything the housekeeper said, but some of them can be deduced.

For example, suppose that Mrs. Guo did not commit suicide due to depression, but because of some accident, she became a ghost wandering around the manor with lingering resentment.

And if all this is true, and the source of the young master Guo's depression is also because he saw his own mother committing suicide, maybe he hated his father because of this, so there was a scene of fatherly kindness and filial piety.

Wait... Zhan Qian, who had come to this point in her head, suddenly thought for a while.

The reason why Young Master Guo suffered from depression and stayed behind closed doors was his mother, so what was the reason for his mother's depression?
Could it be that there was a misunderstanding between the two lovers?

Zhan Qian frowned and thought deeply, but she didn't know whether the secrets in the manor had anything to do with Mrs. Guo's suicide. In the end, she still had to restore the truth of the whole script.

She happened to complete the first task, why is the second task so troublesome.

Thinking of the white shadow judged by the system to have completed the task, Zhan Qian peeked out the window again, but at this time, nothing was seen in the dark courtyard.

The thunder and lightning outside didn't know when it stopped. After the third watch, it was the darkest time of the whole night. Looking from a distance, the villa seemed to be completely swallowed by the boundless darkness.

Anyway, she wouldn't dare to sleep tonight.
