The limited space in the cage was occupied by thorny vines.
Josh had to climb up using the bars of the cage.
Quickly move sideways to avoid the vines.
The slender figure nimbly dodged the vines on the ground in the narrow cage.
But no matter how flexible they are, they cannot withstand the continuous attacks.
Josh's energy was depleting rapidly.
She struggled to hang on the bars of the cage to avoid the vines, but because she was too slow, a cut was left on her arm.
The vines wrapped around her slender ankles, as if trying to drag her underground.
Josh quickly grabbed the railing, but his ankles were tightly entangled by thorny vines, which pulled him up and down.
At her ankle, the barbs of the thorns pierced her skin, and blood dripped onto the ground, splattering.
"Hmm..." The person on the bed suddenly turned over, as if disturbed by the slight noise.
The vines quickly retracted into the ground and disappeared.
Josh fell to the floor, wincing in pain.
She quickly climbed onto the mat next to her and sat down, looking at the wound on her foot.
"I haven't gone to catch him yet, and the little guy fell into my cage by himself." The man's voice was a little hoarse, as if he had just woken up.
Qiao Xi looked up, but everything in front of her was dark, as if something was deliberately preventing her from seeing the other person's face clearly.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to intrude on your territory," Josh said.
The man walked over to the cage and unlocked it.
Josh put the knife behind her vigilantly, and watched the man with a black face walk in, bend over, pick her up, and put her on the sofa outside.
It looks like there's no harm in it.
Josh regarded him calmly.
This NPC looked like the one she had seen in the study before, and the voice was very similar.
She asked tentatively, "Have we met in the study?"
The other party did not answer her, but just grabbed her ankle firmly and applied medicine to her.
Josh wanted to say something, but the other party suddenly interrupted her: "How did you get in?"
Josh said truthfully: "I accidentally fell into a tunnel and slipped in."
The man smiled and asked, "Which room did you go to?"
"Which one?" Qiao Xi looked at the dark shadow in front of him: "Are you referring to the toy room?"
The shadow didn't say anything else. He just pressed the bell at the bedside and warned her, "Don't go near that room next time."
Soon a maid was called in.
The maids had strange expressions, like fear and awe. They came in, picked up Josh and walked out.
Josh was sent back to his room and someone thoughtfully brought him fresh food.
Does that mean it’s okay for her not to go to the restaurant for lunch?
That man seems to be a very important person.
The maid soon brought another bowl of fresh red soup, which had a strong scent of roses mixed with a barely perceptible smell of blood.
Josh frowned slightly: “What is this?”
The maid said respectfully: "It's rose juice. Apply this to the wound and it will heal soon."
Before Josh could say anything else, they had already retreated, as if they were afraid that Josh would ask more questions.
The corners of her mouth twitched slightly and she looked at the contents of the bowl suspiciously.
The man didn't seem to have much ill will towards her.
She thought about it, and without hesitation, poured the rose juice on the wound.
She felt a cool touch on the wound, and then her wound healed quickly.
This was the first time she had seen such a magical thing.
But considering that this is in a dungeon, it's not surprising.
She got out of bed and moved around, and didn't feel any discomfort at the wound.
It seems that she is lucky and has a very fruitful morning.
She maxed out the chef's favorability, got the prince's diary, unlocked the prince's tragic childhood, and came into contact with the mysterious NPC.
She had a feeling that the NPC must be very important.
It all seemed to be going too smoothly for her.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that this copy was favoring her intentionally or unintentionally, and everything she did went very smoothly.
She got up and went out to find Thomas to register for a room change.
She killed three people in the morning, so she can just move to any room.
When she arrived at Thomas' office, she didn't see anyone there. She grabbed a maid and asked her, and was told that Thomas was weeding in the yard with some people.
She quickly walked into the yard and saw people vigorously weeding and pulling out thorns and roses.
There was a fire nearby, and the maids were burning the pulled out thorns.
There was a strong wind in the sky, making a whistling sound, and Josh vaguely heard the screams of the vines.
She walked over to Thomas: "Mr. Thomas."
Thomas was much more respectful when he saw that it was her: "Miss Josh."
Josh was a little surprised by his unusual attitude, but asked calmly, "Why do you want to weed suddenly? Don't these thorns and roses look beautiful in the yard?"
Thomas smiled respectfully and said, "It was His Highness' order that these thorns could easily scratch people, so it's better not to plant them."
As soon as he finished speaking, the flames of the fire next to him suddenly shot up, like some kind of powerless struggle.
Thomas quickly pulled Josh aside and said, "Stand closer, don't get burned by the flames."
He spoke gently, but when his eyes glanced at the flames beside him, they were as cold as ice.
The flame instantly became much calmer.
Qiao Xi looked at these calmly, and suddenly smiled: "Is that so? Then your highness's order is more important. I am here to change rooms. Here is the room key."
