As it turns out, Jiang Xi is really lucky.
Not only did they find the North District, but they also didn't encounter any NPCs along the way.
Even Wu Bei looked at her in surprise and said with a smile: "Jiang Xi, your skills are really amazing!"
“…”
Jiang Xi pushed his glasses up, smiled politely and said nothing.
I don’t know why, but I always feel like I’m being treated as a human-shaped God Map.
It was also the first time she knew... that this was how her skills were used.
The houses in the north district are easy to identify. Not only are their decorations more luxurious than other houses, but they also have fewer windows.
The house was originally facing away from the sun, and there were many tall trees planted around it, completely enclosing the house in dark shadows.
"This is too dark..." Yixian complained silently, "Are you sure the things inside won't get damp and moldy?"
Mu Chengsi looked up, not knowing what she saw. Her eyes froze slightly: "I don't know if it's moldy or not, but I know..."
"We might be in trouble."
As she spoke, she pointed to several dark cameras around the villa.
In the dim corner, the indicator light on the machine head was flashing, and it was obviously running. The depressing red light gave people an unreasonable sense of oppression.
Everyone looked in that direction and were instantly frightened by the cameras.
Jiang Xi's pupils were shocked, and he murmured, "This is really a 360-degree angle with no blind spots."
Also, why would such a camera appear in the dungeon...!?
Wu Bei also observed these cameras and frowned, "It's very strange. I haven't seen cameras anywhere else, but there are so many installed here."
It's like he's keeping an eye on someone in particular.
But the situation right now is more complicated than just the cameras.
Mu Chengsi's face was solemn. Since there was a camera at the door, it meant that... their whereabouts were likely to have been exposed.
Sure enough, just as a group of people were standing at the door hesitating to move forward, a woman's gentle and smiling voice suddenly sounded behind them.
"How did you find this place, students?"
The charming and gentle voice was like a silent death warrant. It was a hot summer day, but everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
I turned my head suddenly and saw the woman I saw in the morning standing not far away.
The woman changed into a black halter dress. The shawl she wore outside was thin and light, and the lace edge made her chest skin look even whiter. Her black hair was like a waterfall, and a black veiled hat covered half of her face, making it difficult to see her true appearance.
The maid beside her held an umbrella for her. The large black parasol blocked the sunlight, and the dark shadow cast on her body, making the woman look even more mysterious.
She tilted her head and curled her lips slightly: "This is not a place you can come to."
As she spoke, she glanced at Bai Jingmo vaguely, but the man's eyes had long been fixed on her, with an indescribable obscure emotion in his eyes, as if he was suppressed, or unbearably restrained.
Seeing this, a helpless smile flashed across Yu Li's eyes.
Sensing the warning in the woman's tone, Wu Bei took the lead and stepped forward with a polite smile on his face: "Sorry, we were just walking around and didn't mean to walk here. We didn't know this was where you, Aunt Lina, lived."
"Oh? You just came here while walking?" The woman chuckled. "What a coincidence."
As if he didn't hear the profound meaning of the NPC opposite him, Mu Chengsi said, "Aunt Lina, is this your residence? Does it mean that Youyou also lives here? Can we meet her?"
NPCs are not only dangerous, but also key people who can provide clues.
The dangerous plot has not been officially unlocked yet, so as long as you don’t cross the red line, you should ask boldly.
Yu Li crossed her arms and said in a leisurely voice: "Youyou...she doesn't live with us. After all, I'm her stepmother, and she has never liked me, so she doesn't want to live here with us."
"Then where does she live?" Mu Chengsi said in a somewhat depressed tone, "To be honest, we asked Butler Wang before, but he said Youyou didn't want to see us, but we still want to see her."
"Really? What a touching friendship between classmates." The woman sighed and covered her mouth with her hands.
But she just sighed like this and didn't answer any of their questions. She just walked around them and went to the door on the side.
Then he turned his head to look at them and said with a smile: "Since you are here, come in and sit down."
Mary on the side whispered: "Madam..."
But Yu Li's smile remained unchanged as she continued to speak to the players: "After all, you are all You You's classmates. If I don't entertain you well, that girl will be mad at me again if she finds out."
Now that the players have started to act, the NPC must give them appropriate clues.
The moment the heavy door opened, the lights in the dark hall suddenly lit up with a "click", illuminating the magnificent scene inside the house. The tall ceiling was decorated with exquisite reliefs and gorgeous chandeliers, emitting a soft and dazzling light.
Every corner is filled with exquisite decorations or some precious collections, giving people an elegant and solemn atmosphere.
The player followed behind Yu Li and couldn't help but look at the scene a few more times.
By the time they reacted, the woman in front of them had already walked into the house and turned to look at them, "Come in."
Several people looked at each other, then walked in.
Compared to the many servants in their previous house, this house, although large, was unexpectedly deserted.
From beginning to end, only the maid named Mary was with the woman.
"Mary, go and look after my pets. Don't let them out and scare them." The woman sat on the sofa and ordered lazily.
Mary was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what the woman meant by "pet". She lowered her eyes and glanced at the group of people calmly.
"Yes, ma'am."
Seeing the maid go out and looking at the woman on the sofa, several players felt a little restrained.
The woman was not shy at all, but surprisingly easy to get along with. She stood up and said with a smile, "We have a large pet at home, but it's not very obedient and will bite people. I didn't let it out because I was afraid it would scare you guys."
Mu Chengsi's eyes flickered, and a simple smile appeared on her face. She narrowed her eyes and spoke with a clear curiosity that only college students can have: "Then why not euthanize it? Isn't it a hidden danger to keep such a pet? Why do you still keep it?"
Yu Li walked to the water bar, turned her head and looked at her when she heard the words, her red eyes narrowed slightly under the gauze curtain, and a hint of interest appeared in her eyes.
Mu Chengsi was more perceptive than she thought.
She curled her lips and said, "After all, I have raised it for many years. It would be a pity if it died casually like this."
The woman leaned on the edge of the table with her hands, her posture casual, and her voice was filled with a lazy smile:
"Besides, that thing swallowed up my valuables before. Its value is different now. To euthanize it like this... that would be too cheap for it."
