Without waiting for Xiao Tangqiu to answer, Tang Mianmian sneered, "One monk fetches water to drink, two monks carry water to drink, and three monks have no water to drink. With so many of them crammed into one room, what can they possibly find? Maybe they're not really looking and are just trying to fool around! There are others anyway!"

Xiao Tangqiu nodded. He thought the same thing. "Those new guys don't have much experience. Let's search again, especially the corners... Weren't the small wooden box and pocket watch found under the bed and in the pillow?"

Lu Si'er nodded in sudden realization, then rolled up her sleeves and started searching through the drawers with Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian.

Xiao Tangqiu looked around the room while searching for something. It was decorated similarly to Maria's room. Of course, all the rooms in the castle were similar. But after carefully examining the room, he couldn't help but ask the other two, "Do you think... this is a child's room?"

Lu Si'er hesitated and said, "But there are no children in this castle! And if Lepnobert had children, why wouldn't there be portraits of his children in the castle?"

"There's no portrait of Maria in the castle," Tang Mianmian disagreed. "Maybe he doesn't even take Maria seriously. No woman other than Lili Marlene is important to him."

Lu Si'er was stunned for a moment, but had to admit that Tang Mianmian seemed to be right. Lepnobert had married three wives in total, but the castle was full of portraits of Lilimaren, and there were no portraits of the other two women at all.

Xiao Tangqiu pointed to the wardrobe in the corner and said, "There seem to be a few children's toys on it, so I guess it's a child's room... But this room should be the same as Maria's room. No one has lived in it for a long time."

Tang Mianmian had just crawled out from under the bed and casually lifted the pillows and quilt on the bed, but found nothing. He was disappointed, but when he heard this, he suddenly became excited: "Let me do it!"

"There's nothing in the bedside table," Lu Si'er also searched other places. "This room is so empty, no wonder they didn't find anything."

Tang Mianmian moved a stool over and reached for the things on the wardrobe. He took them all down and saw that they were all unimportant things: a stuffed bear, a worn music box, a faded comb, and a few dried flowers...

"It doesn't look worth much, no wonder it hasn't been stolen," Tang Mianmian muttered, "It's just a pile of junk... but for a child, it could be a treasure."

Xiao Tangqiu stared at the little bear doll and suddenly said, "I have a bold idea."

Tang Mianmian and he were in sync, and she immediately realized, "Hello Kitty corpse case? You want to take apart this doll?"

Xiao Tangqiu nodded: "But..."

"But this rag doll is also a doll," Tang Mianmian raised an eyebrow. "What if it's one of those dolls that Lepnobet said must not be damaged?"

"Yes," Xiao Tangqiu sighed, "So I was just thinking about it."

Tang Mianmian picked up the rag doll, shook it, and patted it: "But this doll is quite small, it doesn't look like it can hide anything."

Xiao Tangqiu turned his attention to the music box again. He opened it and took a look: "It seems to be broken."

The outer shell of the music box was covered with dust. When it was opened, there was a little girl dancing in red leather shoes inside. However, the music box did not make any sound and the little girl did not dance.

He suddenly remembered that Meng Xinghe had given him a music box before. When he opened it, "Für Alice" would play, and a little girl in a ballet skirt would dance gracefully.

At that time, he particularly disliked this gift, thinking that the music box was a gift for girls.

Tang Mianmian picked up the music box and shook it: "This thing doesn't look like it can hide anything..."

"It seems like there's really nothing left in this room," Xiao Tangqiu said with a helpless smile, "Forget it, it's almost time for tonight, let's go back."

Tang Mianmian was about to say something when Xiao Tangqiu secretly winked at him. He reacted instantly and nodded secretly.

"It's late now. Let's go back and rest. We'll continue looking tomorrow," Xiao Tangqiu said to Lu Si'er, "Go to bed early tonight. Don't come out if you hear any noise."

Lu Si'er nodded quickly.

Seeing that they were about to leave, the short and thin man immediately struggled, but he was beaten so badly that he could not stand up at all. He could only twist and move forward a little bit on the floor, making a whimpering sound, as if begging them to take him with them.

Xiao Tangqiu hesitated for a moment. He wasn't a kindhearted person, but he couldn't bear to watch this guy die here, so he said, "We can take you to the second floor, but they probably won't let you in. I don't trust you, so you'll have to have a room by yourself."

Being alone in a room is better than waiting to die in this weird room. The short and thin man nodded desperately.

So Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian each supported the short and thin man on each side and helped him out of the room.

Lu Si'er frowned slightly, seemingly disapproving of Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian's behavior, but she didn't say anything until the four of them left the room. Suddenly, her expression changed: "That puppet... changed direction again!"

Xiao Tangqiu turned his head and saw that the puppet was indeed turning towards them again, and the axe was pointing at the door where they were.

Lu Si'er immediately dodged back and hid far away from them: "You shouldn't have taken him away. The housekeeper said that anyone who damages the puppet will be punished!"

Xiao Tangqiu pursed his lips: "...Let's go."

"I'm going back first," Lu Si'er shook her head, seemingly unable to understand why Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian would help a thief who was doomed to die. "See you tomorrow."

Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian looked at each other and nodded. They were helping the short and thin man to leave when the door of the room behind them suddenly slammed shut.

Xiao Tangqiu was stunned for a moment, and the next second, a faint melody suddenly came from the room behind him.

It was a melody he was very familiar with.

――It’s “Für Elise”.

The ethereal and ethereal music from the music box gently echoed in the silent and eerie castle...
