Chapter 5 Death Invitation (2)

"There's another one."

"Newbie?"

Shi Zhen emerged from the hotel room into the lonely jungle.Before he could stand still and recover from the shock, he heard someone ask.

She subconsciously looked in the direction of the question.

Three men and two women.

In the middle is a tall, burly man with a beard.

When the man saw her face clearly, his eyes clearly flashed with surprise.

Shi Zhen didn't notice that her whole body was trembling, full of fear of strange environments and strangers.

The fingers holding the bag turned white.

He asked in a trembling voice: "W-where is this?"

"Didn't you receive the invitation letter?" the bearded man asked in a gentle tone.

Shi Zhen stiffened for a moment and nodded: "Are you also attending the dance?"

Got an affirmative answer from the bearded man.

Shi Zhen relaxed a little.

She started to look around: "This is a forest, so strange. There is no equipment stage..."

"Of course not. Because we haven't arrived at the castle yet." The girl with a bunch of blue hair highlighted and a bad temper crossed her arms across her chest and said, "If I have any questions, I'll talk to you later." The officer asked. It's time to go."

The bearded man looked up at the sky and said, "Time is running out."

"How to group?"

Although the bearded man seemed to be asking for advice, his eyes were always locked on Shi Zhen, and his meaning was obvious.

The other four people did not fight with him, they formed groups in twos and quickly matched up.

The six of them began to move towards the castle that jutted out from the woods.

It was dark.

After walking for a short time, it was almost hard to see the road clearly.

Fortunately, a torch appeared in front of them in time. They followed the light of the torch and walked to the tall and towering castle.

The white-haired butler wearing a black and white butler uniform was already waiting outside the castle.

He bowed and said, "Welcome, distinguished guests."

"Delicious food and comfortable rooms have been prepared in the castle. Once you enter, you can repair yourself and relieve your fatigue. By the way, tonight's dance will start at midnight, please attend on time. Remember to wear appropriate clothes."

After the butler finished speaking, he led the six people in.

The sky is gloomy outside and the air is humid.

There were many candles lit inside the castle, illuminating the interior brightly.

The fire in the fireplace was burning brightly, adding a lot of warmth to the guests who had just arrived.

The long table in the center of the hall was indeed filled with food.

They all exude heat and fragrance.

"Cuckoo..."

Someone's stomach growled.

Shi Zhen looked over and saw a girl with blue hair.

He glared back fiercely, pressed his stomach, but didn't move.

The rest of the people also looked at the long table, wary.

It seems that those are not food, but some kind of trap.

Shi Zhen's eyes flashed, she held her stomach and walked towards the long table.

Just as the bearded man was about to call her back, she was already sitting on a chair.

Shi Zhen picked up a small piece of steak with a fork and ate it.

The outside is slightly burnt, but the inside is tender and juicy, with just the right amount of spices, making it very delicious.

She narrowed her eyes with satisfaction. After taking a bite, she excitedly shouted to the bearded men: "It's very delicious. Come and try it too!"

The blue-haired girl showed a disgusted expression, hurriedly said "I'm not hungry" and walked towards the stairs, going upstairs.

The other three people had similar reactions. Although they didn't leave, looking at Shi Zhen's expression, they seemed to be looking at some kind of monster.

He only had a beard and looked at Shi Zhen carefully for a while. Seeing that she didn't feel any discomfort, he walked over and sat next to her.

There was a plate of cut steaks in front of Shi Zhen. He took it away and ate it with big mouthfuls.

Shi Zhen's eyes turned red with grievance, but she didn't dare to say anything, so she had to pick up a bowl of creamy soup garnished with rosemary.

The mouthfeel is silky smooth.Sweet but not greasy.

She squinted her eyes with satisfaction, and after fully enjoying the taste in her mouth, she was about to drink again. With a flick of her hand, the soup was snatched away by the bearded man.

There was a red light flashing in Shi Zhen's dark and deep eyes.

The round and harmlessly trimmed nails seemed to have grown longer, becoming pointed and sharp.

But the displeasure only lasted for a few seconds, and Shi Zhen quickly went to get something else to eat.

The result was the same. No matter what she ate, as long as she took two or three bites, the bearded man would snatch it away.

Fortunately, the castle prepared many kinds of food, so Shi Zhen felt full after eating a little bit of everything.

Putting her hand on her already slightly rounded and swollen belly, Shi Zhen stood up and yawned: "I'm so tired. I went to the room to rest."

The bearded man put down the food in his hand and stood up.

Shi Zhen didn't take it seriously at first, but when Beard tried to follow her into the room, she finally couldn't help it anymore and said with some embarrassment, "Isn't this inappropriate of yours?"

She has a delicate and soft look, even when she is angry, she is weak.

Nothing threatening.

The bearded man brushed her hand away and walked in.

Shi Zhen was angry and helpless, standing at the door, neither advancing nor retreating.

Several other people heard the noise and came out to take a look, but no one said a word.No one even wanted to help.

He retracted coldly.

Shi Zhen bit her lip, not knowing what to do.

In the room, Bearded Man was already lying down on the big bed comfortably: "This scene is difficult."

"Without my protection, you would have died on the first night."

"The invitation was given to you by someone else, right? You didn't even know what it was, and you thought you were attending an ordinary dance."

"Isn't it?" Shi Zhen asked with unsteady breath.

"Ha." The bearded man smiled mockingly and asked, "Have you offended someone recently? But he is still the kind of person who wants you to die. Don't deny it. Newcomers like you who know nothing are all brought in to die. .After all, in reality, you have to consider the law when killing people, but in the game, it has nothing to do with it.”

Shi Zhen's face became very ugly.

She could barely stand and fell onto the carpet by the door.

A short sob sounded.

But she stopped before Lu Xiu became impatient. She raised her tear-stained face to look at Xiu Hu and murmured: "It has nothing to do with me. It's really not me who killed Mr. Zhu."

With a few words from the beard, he originally just wanted to break Shi Zhen's psychological defense line, make her rely on him, obey him, and then make a fool of himself.

I didn't expect to hear Shi Zhen say the name "Master Zhu".

He sat up suddenly: "That Mr. Zhu who committed suicide live?"

Shi Zhen nodded.

He raised the back of his hand to wipe away the tears and stumbled towards the bearded man: "Please, help me. I don't want to die. It really has nothing to do with me..."

The beard flicked up to avoid it.

At this moment, he looked at Shi Zhen as if he was looking at some savage beast.

He quickly walked out of the room without looking back.

Shi Zhen sat in the room "desperate" and "helpless" and "crying".

Her crying lasted until the dance began in the evening.

"Dear guests, it's time to go downstairs."

The housekeeper knocked on the door one after another to remind.

The attitude is respectful and humble.

However, when he saw that the guests who came out were not wearing the clothes carefully prepared by the castle, the butler's expression suddenly changed: "You want to go to the ball like this? Vulgar! Discourteous!"

"The castle has no such guests!"

The girl with dyed blue hair originally wanted to distinguish something, but when she heard the last sentence, she was so frightened that she stepped back: "I'm going to change it right now, don't drive me away!"

The housekeeper then put down his hand that was about to grab her and waited at the door.

Seeing this, the people in the other rooms didn't dare to bother, and went back to change clothes.

After a few minutes, they came out dressed.

The butler nodded with satisfaction: "That's all. I hope our distinguished guests will have a pleasant night."

The housekeeper is ready to lead everyone down.

The girl with blue hair and highlights suddenly pointed at Shi Zhen and shouted, "Wait! She hasn't changed her clothes yet!"
