I work as a housekeeper in Guilou

Chapter 69 The Bloody Castle ()
  When Xia Qimiao woke up, she felt itchy in her nose and sneezed involuntarily.

She opened her eyes and found that her field of vision was red, the red of roses.

She raised her hand and found that the vines originally wrapped around her face had blossomed.

Hong Teng realized that she was awake and nuzzled her neck affectionately.

What kind of fuss are you making?

Xia Qimiao wanted to open her mouth to speak, but a petal fell into her mouth.

She chewed it subconsciously, but it was not the texture that flower petals should have. The texture was creamy, reminding her of the half-cooked meat she cooked the first time.

There are very few things that can be rated as unpalatable to her. The first place was cooked by her. Now this first position is in jeopardy, and the strange-eating rose belongs to the latecomer.

Suddenly, Xia Qimiao felt as if she had grown countless eyes, each eye looking at a different picture.

She observed the fine lines on the armrests at close range, looked down at Lin Jiangdan who was painting, squinted at the fried ice cream sleeping next to the door, and looked up at the bloody sky outside.

Different pictures from different perspectives were stuffed into her head, and she felt dizzy, as if she was about to explode.

She tried to sit up but failed.

"Yeah." Hong Teng didn't understand why there was a cane that escaped its control. Thinking that it was being attacked again, the other canes turned around.

Xia Qimiao's perspective is still not unified at this moment, but part of her gaze is focused on a standing vine... Could it be that she is possessed by the Devouring Rose?
  In order to test her conjecture, she used her mind to control the lifting of the vine, and then she saw that her perspective was completely raised.

"Ah——!" The Devouring Rose found herself controlled by an unknown force and screamed in horror as if she had seen a ghost.

At this moment, Xia Qimiao's eyes flashed and she returned to normal.

She stretched out her hand to comfort Hong Teng: "My dear, don't be afraid, it was me just now."

Only then did the Devouring Rose stop shouting, her voice picked up again and became softer: "Yeah..."

"What's wrong?" Fried Ice Cream was awakened by the movement here and rushed over.

Xia Qimiao sat up and waved to them: "It's okay."

When Fried Ice Cream heard that it was okay, she really thought it was okay and yawned. He noticed the flowers on her head: "Captain, it's a different style. Doesn't it feel better today compared to yesterday when it was all green? "

She couldn't see how to distinguish whether it was good or bad.

However, she just discovered a new skill through this incident.

"Well, I'm surprised."

She praised the Devil-Devouring Rose and got the other party to act coquettishly.

Fried Ice Cream stretched and then patted Green Vine: "What are our plans for today?"

Is it already the second day? But just now I saw that the sky outside didn't look like the sun was rising.

"Let's go to the locked room and take a look first." Xia Qimiao looked at Lin Jiangdan, who had only been focusing on painting since just now. He seemed to have entered a mysterious and mysterious realm, and only her paintings were in his eyes.

"Okay." Fried Ice Cream also wisely did not interrupt and followed upstairs.

Xia Qimiao stopped at the door, knocked on the door very politely, and counted for three seconds before making room for him.

She found that his way of picking locks was so different from hers that it couldn't even be called picking.

He took out a square silver-white box and locked it. After hearing the sound of gears rubbing against each other, the lock clicked open.

"Is this also a prop?"

"Well, it wasn't originally used for this purpose, so I made some minor changes."

"Can you change it too?" Xia Qimiao thought of the sparrow-tailed mask named Moni in Guess Who Is. At that time, he also took out the modified props that were enough to make a bet.

Fried Ice Cream was a little surprised when he heard the word "ye", but remembering that they came from the same single-player dungeon, it was not surprising: "Well, I exchanged a lot of things with that little bird tail, and I learned from him of."

The door opened, he took back the props and made a gesture of invitation with one hand. This time Xia Qimiao went in first. Sitting inside was a girl with gradated hair, white on top and blond on the bottom, humming a ballad.

"Doliala, the sun is coming; Doliala, the moon is hiding; Doliala, sleep, sleep..."

At first glance she looked similar to the blond woman, but upon closer inspection they looked nothing like her.

"Little sister, what are you singing?" Fried Ice Cream asked in a soft voice.

She ignored him and just sang these words repeatedly.

He looked at Xia Qimiao for help, but the other party didn't look at him and was checking the room.

This room faces south, and the window glass is translucent. In theory, it should be brighter, but now the room is extremely dark, and even if Xia Qimiao opens the curtains, it will not help.

She stood at the window and looked outside. The town square was deserted, extremely desolate, and without any life.

Fried Ice Cream tried to say a few words again, changing many tricks, but still got no response.

He turned around and found that while he was busy working, the captain had rolled over from the door to the bed.

...He also gave up here temporarily, rolled up his sleeves and joined the team searching for clues.

Xia Qimiao found a huge blood formation under the bed, and the blood had turned dark black.

The outermost edge of the array is a circle with an eight-pointed star line inside. The lines extend inward to meet the ripples of the sun. The most eye-catching thing is the face with closed eyes in the center of the sun.

How weird.

Fried Ice Cream found several records that were half diaries and half medical records. There was no chronological order, so they could only read them one by one.

【1】

I saw her.

【2】

She also had symptoms of hallucinations and auditory hallucinations today. I wanted to take her to church, but she screamed sharply. I can't tell anyone about her, I can't, I can't.

【3】

She has become a lot better recently, no longer noisy, and seems to have become a lady, but I don't know why, she no longer prays.

【4】

Today I saw her talking to the air again. I asked her who she was talking to, and she said she was talking to her mother. But she obviously didn't speak to me?

【5】

I can't see her, I can't see her no matter what, does she hate me, does she hate me for not standing up?

【6】

I suspected that she was dissatisfied with me and felt that the time I spent with her was too short, so I took the time to play with her for a day and was very happy.

【7】

She said she wanted to sleep with her mother. I told her that her mother was here, and she said, there is another mother.

【8】

Why is she always talking to herself lately? Is she talking to an imaginary playmate? I can't go out, I don't have friends of the same age, and it's really lonely.

【9】

I know, I was wrong.
