Chapter 4 Clues
According to the content recorded by the guard, there should be someone who hanged himself today?
She doesn't know the information that the player knows. Is the so-called "Love Castle" interpreted literally?Is it about love?Right now, the players seem to be on each other's side, guarding against each other.

Even if you listen to the news, you can only wait for the opportunity.

If it has something to do with love, then the owners of the castle, Tracy and David, are the most suspected, and of course there are the cook and the guard, who are also a couple.Qiuli put down the bowls and chopsticks she had eaten and put them into the sink.

Looking out from the kitchen window, there is a forest behind.

I heard from the cook that the doorman set traps in the woods.

Looking at the forest from this angle, she felt a sudden movement in her heart. If he was in the forest, then he could monitor her every move.Or, he was just spying on the cook.

Was it David or the doorman who knocked him out in the morning?Do you want to kill yourself, or just prevent yourself from checking the register?

Qiuli felt that since she knew she was in the dungeon, she had lost a lot of respect for life, including the death of players and NPCs, which seemed to be just a piece of data.

However, the stick this morning really hurt, and I can't really treat the world blindly as data.After all, it's me who hurts.

She stared at the woods and continued to think.

Last night Tracy said that David hadn't returned to the bedroom for a week, and the cook always looked disdainful when talking about Weimen.

And since crossing over, I haven't met that weird doorman face to face?This is absolutely unreasonable!

She rummaged through her memory carefully, trying to find some clues.

The cook's brisk voice came from behind: "My dear Qiuli, I'm here to get lunch." The lunch between her and the guard was also prepared by Qiuli.

Qiuli turned around and asked, "Have you eaten with my wife?"

"My wife ate it. Mr.'s wife said that I would send it over in person! They are really loving?" The cook sighed enviously.

"Is Mr. busy recently? There is no one in sight, have you seen him?"

"Mr. is doing experiments in the basement. I haven't seen him for a long time. My dear Qiuli, I'll go back first." After speaking, the cook picked up the lunch box and walked out.

Qiuli turned around and continued to look at the woods. In the early summer, insects were constantly singing in the woods, and birds were singing from time to time in the trees.The cooks were all gone, and there was still no one in the woods.

She walked to the stairs and looked down, the basement door was closed tightly.

A line of sight looked at her, and she looked up, and it was the middle-aged man player.

He pretended to smile elegantly, and walked out quickly from the corner on the second floor: "My name is John, what's your name?"

"Hi John, my name is Qiuli." Qiuli showed a sincere expression.

"Are you looking at the basement? Are you looking for David?" he asked.

"John, are you friends with your husband?" Qiuli asked back?
"We are friends of Tracy, and naturally we are also friends of David."

"Oh, sir, I haven't eaten in the dining room recently. I'm a little worried. Is it because my food is not delicious?" Qiuli sighed softly.

John stared at her, turned his head to look at the basement door, and raised his mouth slightly: "Or, let's go to the basement to see him, what do you think? Miss Qiuli."

Qiuli's heart moved, but she still stood there, her expression was a little shy, and her voice was a little softer: "I dare not go. Since you are friends, why don't you go and ask for me?"

John was taken aback, looked at Qiuli again, and nodded: "Okay, I'll go and have a look."

When they went downstairs, John knocked on the door. Qiuli stood at the top of the stairs and looked over. After a while, the door opened. It was not David, but Tracy who opened the door.

She was a little surprised that John would be here: "Dear John, why are you? Is there something wrong?"

"I haven't seen David come out to eat together. The beautiful chef is a little worried whether her dishes are not to the taste." John said politely.

Tracy raised her head to look at Qiu Li at the top of the stairs, with a smile on her face: "Don't worry, he just finished his meal and he's very satisfied!"

After she finished speaking, she looked at John apologetically: "David is still busy, so I won't invite you in."

John returned to the landing, and the basement door closed again.

"Can I invite you to take a walk in the back garden with me? Today's meal is so delicious, I ate a little too much." He smiled and invited Qiuli.

"Okay, I'd be more than happy."

The roses in the back garden are in full bloom, and the tall trees on both sides of the path completely shade the sun. Although it is a bit hot in the early summer afternoon, it is very cool here.

Along the way, Qiuli and John tested each other, and she figured out the names of the remaining six people and where they came from.

Qiuli didn't care where they came from, it must have been a false identity given by the game.But what John asked of her was worth noting.

"I heard that David once had a confidante. Have you met Miss Qiuli?"

Qiuli's thinking has been spinning on the existing relationship between men and women, and it never occurred to her that there might be a third person.

Listening to his question, he really gave another way of thinking.

"I've heard of it too, but unfortunately I haven't seen it." She replied following his question.

"Tracey seems to care about David?"

"Well, after all, we've only been married for one year!" This sentence was said almost without thinking, Qiu Li was stunned for a moment, this should be the original body's memory.

Or maybe it's the setting of the game.

On the way back, at the junction of the garden and the woods, I met five other people. They seemed to be assigning tasks. Seeing the two of them approaching, the voice stopped.

Qiuli and John separated here.She went back to her cabin, and John joined them.

After entering the hut, she looked out the window, and the group was still discussing something.

She quickly turned around, went out, and went straight to the second floor.

They are all outside right now, so I can go to see where they live and see if there are any clues.

I just chatted and learned that John lives in 203 with Lawrence, another young blond man. He seems to be very proactive, and he hopes to find clues from him.

As for opening the door, Qiuli silently took out the spare key from her pocket. All the hygiene in the castle was done by the cook. The cook's spare key was placed in the kitchen. She saw it a few days ago.

Guests have checked in for the past few days. At the request of the guests, the room cleaning has stopped, and the keys have not been moved there.

Qiuli, who had never done this kind of thing before, found that she had a talent in this area, and her movements were smooth and agile.No wonder people say that it takes three years to learn well, but only three days to learn badly.

Room 203 is exactly the same as room 202 next door, but it is even more messy inside. Bedding is randomly piled up on the bed, some dirty clothes are placed on the back of the chair, the suitcase is opened and placed on the coffee table, and there are clothes inside.

She walked forward quickly and touched them one by one, but found no props. She found a small book under the pillow and opened it. It was a plot analysis written by the player. It was really timely, so she quickly read it.

Sure enough, they knew more about the plot than they did, but it was limited. David's ex was named Emma, ​​and she vaguely felt that this name was very familiar.

There was a thunderstorm outside, and she looked towards the window. She was too absorbed in reading the notes before, and before she knew it, heavy rain had fallen.

Oops, it's raining and the guests are sure to come back.

There were noisy footsteps in the corridor, she looked around, but it was too late to go out...
