change

He Lizhou saw that the person who opened the door was a young servant, and guessed that he must not know about Mr. Shen's previous social life, so he made up a false identity without exposing himself.

The servant looked at He Lizhou hesitantly, and seeing that they were all dressed well, he spoke up, "This house was indeed the Shen Mansion, but the master moved away seven or eight years ago, and the current master rarely returns home."

The servant guessed that the new master was probably not a local. He came here for sightseeing and saw the mansion was nice, but never came back after buying it, so he was the only servant left to guard the house.

However, the monthly salary was paid in large amounts and on time, and the servant had no one to support at home, so he just stayed like that.

He Lizhou seemed a little frustrated when he heard this and sighed, "Well, we came at an untimely time. Thank you, brother."

Most of the people who were sent by the master to deliver gifts were well-respected stewards. Although the servant had never stayed in a proper mansion, he also understood this principle. So he was quite flattered and waved his hands repeatedly, "No need, no need. I am just telling you what I know."

Wu Guyun took the opportunity to step forward and spoke with an awkward accent, "Brother, this is the first time I've come here since I was a child. Tell me what's interesting. You're free anyway, aren't you bored?"

The servant smiled awkwardly, "To be honest, I don't like going out, so I haven't heard of anything strange, but if you want to hear it -"

He pointed in the direction of the alley outside, "There is a teahouse on our main street, and it's full of gossips."

Wu Guyun looked in the direction he pointed and saw a few figures swaying at the end of the alley, and the bustle of the main street was not apparent.

The servant refused Wu Guyun's approach, but still pointed them to a place and then closed the door. It was estimated that he would not knock on it again this time.

He Lizhou stood among the players, also standing tall and straight with a height half a head taller than them, so he looked at everyone and asked, "Do you still want to go?"

Si Dongyun looked at Wu Guyun, and only when Wu Guyun nodded did she nod along with him, "Then I'll go too."

The others didn't dare to fall behind, so they huddled together, led by He Lizhou and Wu Guyun, and followed the two men slowly towards the exit of the alley.

This alley is very deep, and everyone comes out from the innermost Qianchen Mansion, so the road seems even longer.

This was also the first time that He Lizhou walked out of the house and onto the main street, so he couldn't help but look around. Wu Guyun noticed his obviously unfamiliar movements and said nothing.

Si Dongyun exclaimed, "Is that Miss Bai's shop?"

He Lizhou looked in the direction she said, and saw a large shop in a good location with its door open. Occasionally, a slender figure would pass by inside, answering customers' questions in a soft and slow voice.

He Lizhou looked up at the name of the shop, which was a tailor shop. He already had the answer in his mind, "It seems that the young lady is busy. Let's not disturb her."

Even if He Lizhou didn't say this, those players would not take the initiative to approach him. They now only know that Wu Guyun said that Manager He is trustworthy. The others will not take the initiative to contact him unless they get Wu Guyun's affirmation.

He Lizhou was a little worried. Fortunately, these people met Wu Guyun, who was responsible. If they met a player like Long Yao, they couldn't expect Long Yao to be kind enough to give them clues.

There was a storyteller in the teahouse, but he was resting today. Si Dongyun felt quite regretful because the stories told by the storyteller in the copy were usually allusions or clues to the main plot, which were very useful. It was a pity that it didn't happen this time.

Wu Guyun was not disappointed. She didn't hold out much hope in the first place, so she cracked a peanut and asked the guests in the teahouse loudly: "Everyone, have you heard anything interesting recently? It's so boring!"

The teahouse was silent for a moment, and eyes from all directions were cast at the players. Si Dongyun lowered his head with some uneasiness, but Wu Guyun pulled He Lizhou up from his seat and pointed at the bewildered He Lizhou, "We are new faces. You should know this person."

Someone actually recognized He Lizhou, "Oh! This is the steward of the Bai Mansion!"

The Bai family is now considered a wealthy business family. Nowadays, people don’t care about the “scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans” system. As long as you have money, it’s all right!

If you want to work in the Bai Mansion, you have to have connections, so a large number of people flocked to the player's table, looking attentive and eager, "What do you want to hear? My ancestors have lived here for eight generations. If you have any big or small matters, just ask me!"

This sentence immediately attracted the attention of the players, so Wu Guyun pointed his index finger and picked him out. Seeing this, the others reluctantly dispersed slowly.

He Lizhou understood that if he stayed here, the person who came would definitely feel embarrassed to talk about the affairs of the Bai Mansion, so he made an excuse to leave early, leaving Wu Guyun here to inquire about the news.

He Lizhou was not idle after leaving the teahouse. He walked into Bai Yimei's tailor shop, took a quick look around and found that the display was similar to that of the Void Trade Center. Probably because of the experience he gained in the copy, the Void Trade Center continued to operate according to his experience.

Bai Yimei noticed He Lizhou the first time he came in, but she didn't know how to face He Lizhou. He Lizhou had always acted as the elder of Sheng Ju. Now she had deceived the younger generation of the family and even entered the hotel. She always felt a little guilty.

However, He Lizhou did not show any dissatisfaction. He realized that Bai Yimei was looking at him, and stepped forward with a smile, "Miss Bai."

Bai Yimei couldn't help but lift her hair to ease the embarrassment, "Um...Mr. He."

There were many customers in the tailor shop, so Bai Yimei took He Lizhou upstairs, and the two sat face to face. "Mr. He, regarding my affairs... I didn't hide them from you on purpose."

He Lizhou nodded. It was understandable that everyone had their own difficulties. He had no intention of pursuing the matter. If he really wanted to make a fuss, he would first have to apologize to all the players in the infinite flow game who had misunderstood his identity.

Bai Yimei had been with He Lizhou for a while, and seeing He Lizhou's expression confirmed that he was telling the truth, she breathed a sigh of relief, "This copy is indeed where I was born. I grew up here, but I don't know the specific situation, even though it's in my home."

This sounds a bit absurd, but Bai Yimei doesn't seem to be a main character in the plot. At best, she is an early NPC who provides information to the players, or solves the problems of players who make extreme mistakes. It is possible that she doesn't understand the plot, so He Lizhou had to give up the idea of asking her about the main plot.

But He Lizhou also thought of something, "How did you..."

Bai Yimei understood what He Lizhou had not said yet, and explained the copy first, "This copy is considered my territory. I can sense it when the system monitors me. Now that it is not here, we can talk."

Bai Yimei lowered her head and took a sip of tea, as if to relieve her tension. "I don't know when, I suddenly found that my father had changed, and became a little strange. He used to love us very much, but after that day he said that he was not feeling well and wanted to retire. However, he had just seen a doctor and was in good health. I didn't think much about it until my father's behavior became more and more strange. He insisted that the mansion, which was originally normal, was haunted and he wanted to ask a doctor to come and see..."

The gentlemen invited were naturally the players. Bai Yimei didn't know it at first, but after the players succeeded or failed in their mission, his father would repeat his previous words, and even his frightened expression would not change. Bai Yimei then realized something was wrong and slowly began to investigate.

Then the story of the player was discovered. Bai Yimei was reluctant to believe that the world she had lived in since childhood was fake, but she had to admit it. Bai Qiuliang somehow heard about this, found Bai Yimei and questioned her, and finally escaped from the Bai Mansion and this copy.

At first, the two's resistance was very weak. After the players entered the copy, they would still be dragged into the copy by the system to perform the actions they had set. But later, it was difficult for the system to find them who had hidden in the player team. This copy was once facing closure, but Bai Yimei was worried about attracting the attention of the system and returned to the copy on time.

This is also the reason why Sheng Ju initially said that Bai Yimei was never in the store. When she was not in the store, she basically returned to the dungeon as an NPC.

At this point, Bai Yimei looked at He Lizhou and couldn't help but smile. "Speaking of which, I also benefited from Boss He. When the hotel became a temporary transit hall, I felt that I could enter other dungeons, so I tracked Bai Qiuliang's whereabouts. I also found that in other dungeons, I could choose to enter as a player or replace an NPC. It's amazing. Boss He, you should be in my second situation now."

He Lizhou couldn't help but marvel. Although the two of them couldn't figure out whether this was a system bug or an upgraded function, it was still in their favor after all, as they were able to enter various dungeons...

He Lizhou's eyes moved slightly, and he whispered a few words to Bai Yimei. Bai Yimei was shocked, and after struggling for a few times, she finally nodded heavily.

She wanted to go back to her old life.

So she was willing to take the risk and give it a try, even if the result of failure was not what she could have imagined.

"Manager He!"

The players downstairs were looking for him. He Lizhou stood up and said goodbye to his new comrades. Bai Yimei looked at He Lizhou, slowly calmed down, and nodded slightly, "Go."

He Lizhou turned around and went downstairs, "I'm here! I reported the situation in the mansion to the young lady--"

Although everyone knew that He Lizhou's words were a lie, they still seemed to believe them. "Thank you for your hard work, Manager He."

He Lizhou coughed and asked, "Did you find any clues?"

Wu Guyun stepped forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with He Lizhou. "I didn't find out anything useful. It was just those weird things that people like to talk about. It was said that Mr. Bai loved his two children, but he was possessed by a ghost. His personality changed drastically, and he performed a ritual in the mansion to summon his kind..."

He Lizhou's eyes moved slightly, and his temperament changed drastically... Bai Yimei also mentioned to him that his father seemed like a different person.

He couldn't help but ask, "Anything else? About Mr. Bai's changes."

"Let me think... Oh, yes! The Bai Mansion was originally developing very well, but after Mr. Bai changed, the mansion suddenly owed a large amount of foreign debt for a period of time. It was only after Miss Bai took over the shop that things gradually improved."

The three masters of the Bai Mansion owed a huge amount of extra debt. None of them were extravagant people, so what did they buy with the money they owed?
