MTL - Global University Entrance Examination-Chapter 85 Quick decision
This night, the guests did not sleep as well as the night before.
Maybe they only touched a few mouthfuls because of the dinner food, or maybe they knew what happened in the castle.
They used to feel the gloom here, and now they are even more disturbed.
Sensitive, such as Zhou Qi, said that he smelled an odor, which was stronger than before.
Zhao Jiatong searched the bottom of the bed and the cabinet, not even the pillows and quilts, and pinched it from corner to corner, but I couldn't find the source.
Before going to bed, Zhou Qi suddenly lay on the wall next to the door, sniffed against the stone wall for a moment, and said, "Sister Tong ... seems to come from the wall."
In a word, Zhao Jiatong's hair was upright.
But she went over and couldn't smell anything.
"Xiao Zhou, honestly what did you do before?" Zhao Jiatong joked with her, trying to ease the atmosphere.
Zhou Qi waved his hand and said, "No, it's not a magic stick. It's just a dog nose."
She pulled off her coat as a quilt, lay down on the carpet, looked at the candle chandelier above her head, and suddenly said, "But I haven't been so sensitive before, maybe this test is special."
Zhao Jiatong lay down beside her, thinking in her heart: really special.
Especially ... it seems as if there is something in this examination room, and Zhou Qi has been issuing a warning to him.
Zhao Jiatong closed his eyes and pondered secretly, while paying close attention to the movement next door.
Regarding the affair between a and 001, she is the duke. She is going to go crazy. If you do n’t find them, you will have a ghost. Once the Duke came to trouble, she followed in secret to look.
However, when there was real movement outside, she failed to act as planned.
Because Zhou Qi has a fever again.
The girl was so hot that she encountered nightmare.
She frowned and twirled, muttering dreamily in her mouth, but she couldn't wake up.
Zhao Jiatong stepped closer and barely heard her say, "... I think ... why not let me see ..."
Then wept sobbing.
High fever for two consecutive nights, too strange.
Zhao Jiatong couldn't help but think of Qin Chen's words ... This illness seemed to be holding Zhou Qi on purpose and not let her run out late at night.
Don't you want her to run into anything?
Still don't want her to see anyone?
***
The fire on the promenade was dark at night, and the servants were full of castles in the evening, and the doors of the rooms were empty as if they never existed.
Suddenly, footsteps came from the stairs.
Several male servants walked up to the third floor, the leading one held the oil lamp in hand, and others lined up behind him.
Their faces were half-dark and half-dark in the dangling lights, their facial features were tense, their expressions were rigid and indifferent, and a breath of death was breathed through.
Poor steward Douglas turned into a pig, temporarily unable to help the Duke Lord, so the task of catching people fell on their shoulders.
"Just in front," the leading manservant whispered.
He pointed at the door not far away, and instructed another servant: "Go knock on the door, and the others will surround the room."
"Where's the other?" The knocking servant raised his hand and asked hesitantly, "Don't the master let us catch two?"
The leader said, "Next door is, please finish this one and then invite the other.
"Oh, yes."
The companions formed a semicircle, and the servant knocked on the wooden door.
Tuk-
As soon as the first knock was made, the door opened.
butler:"?"
Confused holding the door, he watched him without wave.
The manservant opened his mouth and forgot to speak for two seconds, and said mechanically, "Sir, good evening. You ... haven't slept?"
"What do you say?" Confusion is taller than this manservant. When he looks at him, he looks down, and those who are immortal are looked at twice in this way, and they are panicked.
The manservant got stuck again, and he didn't answer for a while.
The same person who added the lantern added: "It was just no sleep, Lord Duke wanted to ask the gentleman to talk over."
As he spoke, a male servant on the side was behind his back, clenching an iron rod.
In the impression, guests always panic when they are invited and try to shout.
The Douglas butler always brings some tools with him, and this iron rod is what he usually uses.
The servant was ready, and whenever the guest called, he walked over.
Who knows, "Oh."
The manservant was inertia and almost turned the stick to the leader's face.
An awkward expression slowly extruded on their pale faces, and the lantern-raising man stepped back to make way for confusion.
Who knew that the guest took a step and paused, turned to the bedroom and said, "Go away, hurry up."
The manservant froze and said, "Why, did the lady not sleep?"
He puzzled to hear the word "Mrs." and glanced at him.
The manservant looked squarely and said, "The Duke just now calls for Mr. Husband--"
He wanted to say Madam later.
As a result, the door was widened by confusion, revealing the taller man behind him.
butler:"?"
He can't go on.
He stared at Qin Chen's face in the second half, crashed for a second, looked back at the house number, and calmly asked, "Master Duke said that the husband and wife had a room deeper in the middle of the night. Why are you here, sir?"
"What do you say?" Qin Chen said.
butler:"……"
He tasted it, his expression numb: "Master Duke doesn't like disloyal people. We would have wanted you. In that case, please follow me with both."
Qin Chen didn't care, and came out calmly.
Then he turned to look into the room.
Inside, the third voice yawned and said vaguely, "Well, wait for me to put on the shoe cover."
servant:"???"
Gao Qi jumped out while pulling his boots, his beard and his servant came face to face.
"..."
The servant's blue-white face was unpredictable, and he waved a moment later: "Take it away!"
Just kidding, three men ...
How can there be such a mess in the castle!
Just rushing to this point, the master will certainly scare them to cry.
***
The corridor was still dark, the exact same oil painting was hung high on the stone wall, half of the people in the painting were hidden in the darkness, as if looking through the mask and peering at them from top to bottom
Qin Chen followed three male servants around him with a half-bag posture and walked in front.
Behind you, you are surrounded by three male servants, seven or eight meters behind them.
The next two steps were Gao Qi and the rest of the servants.
The oil lamp in the hand of the manservant squeaked, and the light was like a wave of turbulent water, flickering, and a long shadow was falling behind Qin Chen.
Wandering looked away from the oil painting and saw this scene.
He suddenly felt that he seemed to see this scene many times ...
The same long corridor, the same lingering peep.
Qin Chen always followed a group of people behind him, and the same was behind him. Occasionally he could hear Gao Qi's long yawn.
Sometimes they came face to face, sometimes they walked back and forth, just like they do now.
In either case, there is always a long and short distance.
Do not know why……
He always felt that Qin Chen would suddenly stop, hold documents or something, and talk lazily with the people around him.
And he took Gao Qi's group of people ... non-stop.
When passing sideways, Qin Chen will glance at the conversation and receive it at the touch of a button.
...
"Why are you walking faster and faster, relying on your legs?" Gao Qi's voice sounded.
Suddenly, he returned to his heart, only to find that he had unknowingly accelerated his steps, only a few steps away from the others.
Qin Chen stopped when turning around the corner, and looked over the three male servants and fell on the confused.
This time without a touch, he blinked and said, "Come on, don't let the Duke wait."
As they descended to the first floor, getting closer to the bedroom at the bottom of the west tower, other rooms in the castle gradually moved.
If the servants walked slowly, they would pass through the wooden doors and hear the alarm bells of the mobile phones.
After a while, a door on the third floor quietly opened.
A head poked out, looked around, and turned to the people in the room and said, "Should go down, I just heard a little movement."
Immediately afterwards, another door opened.
The second head poked out and beckoned at it.
Then the third, fourth ...
In the blink of an eye, most candidates got out of the room.
This is their previous agreement.
Since killing the Duke can lift the curse, what time is it to stay silent?
Take an early break and take an early break.
They lowered their voices, quietly gestured, and dived to the first floor.
***
The huge bedroom on the first floor of the West Tower was scary.
The duke wore a long headband, and a silk hem swept across the ground.
He was setting a candle around Douglas.
His face was so pale that he thought the blood was no longer flowing, and the curvature of his mouth indicated that he was in a bad mood at the moment. He was angry, both for the pigs in front of him and for the upcoming guests.
With the candle set, he straightened up, pulled a cloth towel, and carefully wiped the cleaver.
Squinting and licking his lips, he said, "Douglas, your negligence has made me a little worried. Without you, I would restrain them both. It would take some energy and time."
"Of course, this strength and time are insignificant."
After all, most of the time, the guests are in a dazed state.
"I hope that when the stupid servants dragged the two gentlemen over, their faces were up. I asked them, but it's hard to say whether they would remember, after all ... after all, they are really stupid, and still live animal."
He touched the blade and muttered, "But when I was alive, I didn't see where they were smart. I always remember that once Eliza was just cold, those idiots could take care of her more and more It took a month to get better. "
The duke paused, glanced under the bed and said, "My Alyssa ... hey ... when I have dealt with those two gentlemen, I will go to their wife for you, wait a minute, wait a minute For a while ... "He joked softly," Let's make our housekeeper personal. "
Footsteps came from outside the door.
The duke hummed in excitement, set his sword behind his back, and stood in front of the gate ready to meet the poor guest.
As soon as the door opened, the male servant looked down respectfully and came in three people.
Three men ...
Three men taller and stronger than the Duke.
"..."
The duke put away a moment of laughter.
The tallest one, Mr. Perfect, glanced at the pig and candle and said with a smile, "Yo, are you ready?"
He said, took out two pairs of white gentleman gloves from his pocket, patted them, and handed them to him.
Another cold Mr. Perfect took it, put it on his hand, and then he reached out a knife and said, "Hurry up and be clean."
