Chapter 67

The man in the suit is not a patient character, and he immediately became unhappy when he heard such obvious words.

"Hey? Brother, what do you mean by this? Everyone has finally arrived here, and everyone should work together. Who are you guarding against?"

He spoke impassionedly himself, and after he stopped, he found that several people around him were standing quietly one by one, not intending to answer.

He immediately became angry, feeling that he was being counted as a target, and immediately yelled at several people around him.

"What are you pretending to be? Who doesn't know the small thoughts in your heart! Don't you all want to know what's upstairs? It's right for everyone to work together now!"

He spoke righteously, creating an image of being straightforward but profoundly righteous.

As he said that, he looked provocatively at Shen Lian, who had never made a sound. He obviously wanted to take advantage of the large number of people, stir up everyone's minds, and force Shen Lian to share information.

He is very calculating!
There was a sneer on Shen Lian's lips, and a coldness in his light gray eyes.

It happened that he was in a bad mood, since he was in a hurry to seek abuse, then he would not be polite.

"Want to know what's upstairs?"

There was a strange gleam in his light gray eyes.

He asked in a soft tone as if whispering, but like a cold poisonous snake, quietly tempting the stupid prey to come to the door.

The man in the suit seemed to be aware of the stagnant atmosphere in the air, and couldn't help but shrink back when the incident happened, and couldn't help but retreat in his heart.

But he wanted to calm things down, but Shen Lian didn't want to let him go so easily.

He thought of the strange white figure on the second floor, and the piano that Qiao Nuo Nuo played, and said,
"There is a piano on the second floor, but there is something nearby all the time. If you can lure that thing away, there may be clues on the piano."

His eyelids drooped, and the long eyelashes cast two shadows under his deep eye sockets, making him seem to be hidden in the shadows, unable to see his emotions clearly.

"We were attacked by that thing as soon as we went in. If you can get the clue, it's your luck!"

He spoke in a flat tone, but he didn't seem to believe that they could get the clue.

He pointed to the bruised and swollen wound on Qiao Nuonuo's knee, indicating that he was not lying.

"that's it?"

The man in the suit looked at him suspiciously, obviously unwilling to believe that he would tell him so easily, since this man refused to say it directly just now.

"Believe it or not, it's up to you! I told you the situation, and whether you can get the clues is up to you."

He sneered disdainfully, looked at him condescendingly, and said contemptuously.

Sure enough, the man in the suit immediately became angry. One was that he looked down on him and felt very displeased.

In addition, he has already subconsciously believed that the danger on the second floor comes from the thing guarding the piano, and the difficulty lies in how to deal with it.

As for the piano, what danger is there in a dead thing?

In a sense, Shen Lian is not lying.

He was just concealing that white shadow's true intentions.

But that was a bit of guesswork that Qiao Nuonuo got after suffering a lot. They wanted to get something for nothing, so asking them to help find the way was considered a "what you want, I want" deal.

Shen Lian, who made the unilateral decision, has no intention of reminding them again.

After saying that, don't bother with the follow-up, whether they will go upstairs or not is their own business.

He helped Qiao Nuonuo downstairs and went to the sofa to help her treat the wound carefully.

Of course, Qiao Nuonuo was very clear about Shen Lian's thoughts, and she remained silent.

These people treat others as fools, and if they want to plot against others, they must be prepared to be plotted against. Good things never come to their door, do they?
To be honest, the logic of Shen Lian's words is not very strict, as long as you think about it afterwards, you can find the loopholes in it.

But whoever made Li Quan himself impatient and overly conceited, even if he really suffered in the end, it can only be said that he had to blame himself.

Zhou Yang also sat on the sofa with the two of them, and Lin Zhe leaned over to protect Xiao Xiao, but was fixed in place by Shen Lian's expressionless eyes, which prevented him from getting too close.

He wanted to explain it to the three of them, and it would be best for Xiao Xiao to join the team with him.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that Xiao Xiao had already expressed his intention to join Qiao Nuonuo and the others, and was rejected mercilessly by them.

There are so many people at the moment, he is still smart enough not to speak, otherwise it will be embarrassing, probably it will not be the three of Shen Lian.

"The second floor is not safe. I will rest in the lobby tonight and be more vigilant at night."

Shen Lian looked at the sky outside the opened door, and said to Zhou Yang in a low tone.

"it is good."

Zhou Yang nodded. The boss said so, which gave him a preliminary understanding of the danger on the second floor.

"It's getting late, let's eat whatever we want and go to bed early at night."

Shen Lian gave Zhou Yang a look, and he immediately understood, took out the food from his backpack, and didn't have the slightest thought of using the food on the table.

The man in the suit has been observing the few people secretly, and seeing their cautious demeanor with disdain on their faces, he couldn't help beating drums in his heart.

I can't help but wonder, if I ate the food of unknown origin here so casually, would something be wrong?

However, no matter how much he struggled, he couldn't change the fact of what happened.

Li Quan felt as if he was suffocating after taking poison, but he put it into his mouth himself.

He was depressed but it didn't help. He wanted to go upstairs to have a look but he didn't dare to be alone.

But he just offended two teammates, and he can't count on them.

So, he could only sit aside aggrieved, sulking, but luckily his stomach was full.

The young woman and Xiao Xiao didn't have much to eat, and they were also a little moved when they saw the leftovers on the table that had been scolded by the man in suit.

But seeing Qiao Nuonuo's cautious appearance, the young woman did not dare to act rashly.

He could only touch his growling stomach, and sat down with his back to the dining table, silently nibbling the last few pieces of grain in his hand.

Xiao Xiao is not in a hurry, in her heart, with Lin Zhe around, they must eat without their own.

Although these foods are not as good as those on the table, they are at least safe!

She still doesn't choose.

However, she thought too well, until the meal, they didn't intend to bring her a portion.

Even Lin Zhe's food was delivered by Zhou Yang with an indifferent face.

There is only one person, as if in their eyes, she does not exist.

The feeling of being ignored like this is really not wonderful, at least Xiaoxiao's face was distorted at that moment.

In the end, it was Lin Zhe who shared half of the food with her.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Yang snorted heavily again, as if the boss didn't want to.

Qiao Nuonuo paused slightly with the hand holding the spoon, gave him a strange look, frowned, and asked worriedly,
"What's wrong with you? It feels like you haven't been right all afternoon!"

Qiao Nuonuo thought about it carefully. This guy didn't enter the flower garden, didn't eat anything, and didn't go up to the second floor...

If the reason for his being recruited is ruled out, then it can only be his own problem.

"I……"

Zhou Yang was about to speak with resentment in his chest, but he froze for a moment.

yes!What is he fussing about?

Didn't that brat Lin Xiaozhe already know that he is kind and soft-hearted, and it's not surprising that he did stupid things for that little Qingmei.

But why does he feel so depressed?

Could it be that the cub he picked up turned his elbow outward, which made him unhappy?
Zhou Yang was a little confused and lost his mind.

Qiao Nuonuo looked at his bewildered face, shook his head, thought that he had committed another crime, and continued to eat with his head down.

In the evening, all seven of them discreetly stayed in the living room on the first floor for the night.

Their mission was to spend seven days in the castle, it was not necessary, and they did not want to risk their lives.

As long as seven days pass, what is there on the second floor?In fact, it has nothing to do with them.

Shen Lian and Qiao Nuonuo naturally understood this truth, but they both had lingering fears about the piano sound that night.

I can't figure out the reason, but there is always a sense of being in danger all the time, as if facing death at any time.

The two made an appointment to go to the second floor again during the day tomorrow, continue to explore the remaining two rooms that were not entered, and then went to rest early.

They gently covered the open gate of the castle, blocking the scent of flowers from outside. The claustrophobic environment also gave people a sense of security.

When several people were all falling into a deep sleep, a gap was suddenly opened from the outside of the lightly closed door.

The cool breeze mixed with a light fragrance gently blows in through the crack of the door.

Lian leaned back on the sofa and folded his arms in a shallow sleep, his tightly closed eyelids trembled slightly, but he did not wake up.

The people outside the door paused for a while, and it became bolder when it saw that the people in the house were quiet.

The door was pushed open again, it moved very lightly, and the heavy door only made an extremely slight sound, revealing a gap for one person to enter and exit.

Dim light came in through the crack of the door, illuminating the figures of several people in the room.

Either sitting or lying down, the seven of them slept on the ground in a mess.

The burning candles in the room did not know when they were extinguished. It was pitch black inside, and I could only look at the little light coming in from the door, and barely walked.

The person dodges, and sneaks in through the narrow crack of the door with a light movement.

With his backhand, he gently closed the door again, and the hall was soon plunged into darkness again.

It walked around lightly, and Zhou Yang, who was lying all over the carpet, stared coldly on his face for a moment, then turned to look elsewhere vigilantly.

In the darkness it couldn't see, a pair of light gray eyes slowly opened, silently watching the sneaky intruder.
