I work as a housekeeper in Guilou

Chapter 53 The Bloody Castle ()

"I had already run away, but when I thought you didn't reply to my message, I guess you didn't see it, so I came back again."

Fried ice cream contains four meanings in one sentence.

He said he had run away, which meant that he was obeying the order and also implied that he didn't see anything.

When he said it again, he not only showed that he had intelligence in hand, but also hid his trust - believing that his teammates would not get into trouble and trusting their strength.

This man has mastered the art of language.

Xia Qimiao judged this.

"what news?"

"The information I exchanged from Asuka, they contacted the players who entered this dungeon last time."

The two people talked while entering the town. Fried Ice Cream first introduced the various forces in the town.

"Although this place is not big, there are at least five forces inside, representing the vampires, residents, the Holy See, the Hunter Association and an unknown organization."

"The Blood Tribe is in opposition to other forces. The residents cooperate with the Hunter Association. The Holy See has a close relationship with the residents, but is hostile to the Hunter Association."

Xia Qimiao found these from the forum information. She checked the equipment on her body. She was currently wearing a black leather tights with a silver badge pinned in the center.

[You have obtained the plot prop - the badge of the Vampire Hunters Association, please check the relevant information. 】

[Yesterday, you saw an E-class commission to find a missing woman on the bulletin board. You thought it was a bit strange and wanted to take it. 】

[However, the president feels that it is a waste for the best talented newcomers to take on such low-level tasks and rejects your request. 】

[So, you found another member of the association, "Fried Ice Cream", who came forward to accept the mayor's commission, and you teamed up with him to come to this town. 】

[You obtain the title - A-level member of the Hunter Association (limited time). All your attacks will have a demon-breaking effect on the vampires. 】

[Destroy the Demon: The damage taken by the enemy is doubled and the healing ability is halved. 】

The system prompted a large amount of information, and Xia Qimiao analyzed it slowly.

"The unknown organization may have methods to cause amnesia or brainwashing. Feiniao found several players who claimed that they had no memory of the game. They guessed that they were the fifth team in this copy."

If the unknown organization possesses such mental skills, it would be a big problem.

Her heart sank.

Then, Fried Ice Cream quickly drew a few strokes on the ground with branches.

His hands seemed to have built-in measuring sticks and compasses, and he looked very standard whether he was drawing a square or a circle.

"This is a rough map. Let's take a look at it first."

The buildings of the town radiate from the center to the periphery, with a square in the middle and a circle of shops surrounding it, which can barely be regarded as a commercial district.

The periphery is a residential area. To the north of the residential area is a large forest, and to the south is the wilderness leading to the outside world.

He pointed at a few places with branches: "These four families have lost their daughters, shall we go and ask?"

He seemed to have completely forgotten the words in the private message asking him to act alone before coming in.

Xia Qimiao glanced at him. She originally wanted to sneak into the castle alone to rescue the two unlucky people, but now that they were discovered, they would definitely be waiting. She had thrown herself into a trap in the past, so it was better to check some information first and then make a plan.

She did not refute the word "we", but pointed to the center with her finger: "No, go here."

In the center of the square was the mayor's home, and she still remembered that he was the client. The horizon swallowed up the last rays of the setting sun. The moment it disappeared, the town seemed to undergo a mysterious change.

The streets were extremely quiet, and the doors and windows were closed. Occasionally, residents hid behind the windows to peek at the two people who dared to walk outside when it was dark. They hid themselves immediately after being glanced at.

As soon as Xia Qimiao entered the square, she heard a clanging sound.

She looked up and saw a tall wooden pillar erected on the edge of the square, with a bloody painting hanging on it. Looking from a distance, the woman in the painting had her pupils moving, and she was looking at him with a smile. she.

[Talent - Coward takes effect, your attack value is rising. 】

The arrow shot through the rope hanging the painting, and the painting fell down. When it was about to fall to the ground, Xia Qimiao reached out to touch it and put it into the prop shelf without any hindrance.

This is Lin Jiangdan's last painting.

She didn't expect that she would bring this painting with her when she came out, and that the enemy would confiscate it and hang it here for demonstration.

Fried Ice Cream watched the whole process and re-judged the charterer's ability.

Although he had many doubts, he said nothing. He just pointed to the only building with lights in front: "This should be the destination."

[You have arrived at the plot location - the mayor's home, please check the guide task. 】

[You and your partner have gone through many setbacks and finally arrived at the door of the client, the mayor, but the client has disappeared. Please find out his whereabouts. 】

Xia Qimiao glanced at the person next to her and found that his expression was as usual, with no intention of discussing it with her, as if he had not received the news.

Is this a hint that only the captain can see, or is he just pretending or testing?

Xia Qimiao originally wanted to hide it, but then he thought that it was not necessary. They were not enemies at the moment, but teammates, although it was only temporary.

Information gaps can easily kill someone. If he dies in an accident, where can she find her face-changing props?

"I received a mission. The client, the mayor, has disappeared. I want to find out his whereabouts."

She relayed it succinctly and caught the fleeting surprise on his face.

"Then let's start with his family first." He quickly returned to his original calm demeanor and knocked on the door first.

The person who came to open the door was a burly man. He was even half a head taller than a fried ice cream and twice as wide. His exposed arms were bulging muscles.

The man had deep features and a thick brown beard that covered his chin.

Brownbeard's eyes turned back and forth between the two of them, and he asked, "Who are you?"

"We are members of the Hunter Association. We received a commission from the mayor and came to investigate the case of missing women." Fried Ice Cream showed his silver badge to him, "Where is the mayor?"

"I didn't expect that the hunter who came here would be so young. What a surprise!" Brownbeard stretched out his broad palm to pat his shoulder, but was dodged dexterously.

He waved his palm away, not caring, and touched his beard.

"I am the mayor here, please come in!"

Fried Ice Cream subconsciously looked at Xia Qimiao, his eyes seemed to say: "Since the client is missing, who is this?"

She received his meaning, moved her index finger slightly, and waited to see what happened.

Brownbeard had already turned around and went in, and the two of them couldn't wait too long, lest he become suspicious.

Xia Qimiao comforted Hong Teng and walked into the door, which looked like it was waiting for prey to come to him with its mouth wide open.
