Chapter 459: Little NPC and Player Boss 37
"So that's how it is." Chen Feng couldn't help but laugh and cry after hearing how Cha Jiu taught the evil spirit a lesson.
Liao Xinzhu was also a little curious, but didn't intend to ask.
She didn't think that Shen Nanqi, a D-level player, would have any good way to deal with the evil spirits. He could only use some clever tricks, but he wouldn't get far.
"Why did you come down in person?" Suddenly, the butler's respectful and surprised voice came from the side.
Everyone looked towards the restaurant door.
A tall young man in a dark black shirt walked in. He had a cool face and an upright posture. His black hair was neatly combed back behind his head, revealing his handsome and deep facial features.
There was an aura of coldness and remoteness surrounding him, making people afraid to approach him.
Even the usually arrogant butler had to bow his head in front of him, with a respectful attitude: "Are you planning to eat in the restaurant today? Then I will ask the servants to remove the food delivered to the room. May I ask if the food served later will remain the same?"
The butler asked more than one question in succession, but the young man only replied with a faint "hmm".
But the former was not dissatisfied at all, but took the time to prepare.
The players present couldn't help but wonder what kind of person this newly appeared NPC was.
Doctor Yan walked to the seat next to Cha Jiu, raised his eyes, stared at Chen Feng, and said in a very cold tone: "Please make way."
Chen Feng quickly made way, wondering in his heart: Why did he have to pick this one when there are so many seats available?
Doctor Yan sat down expressionlessly.
The atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly became cold, and all the players stopped talking.
Soon, the servant brought him a breakfast, which consisted of cold toast and a cup of black coffee.
It looks bland.
Cha Jiu couldn't bear to see it, so he took the coffee that Doctor Yan had already brought to his mouth, and stuffed his own hot milk into his hand.
"If you don't sleep well at night, you shouldn't drink coffee during the day. Drink some hot milk instead. It's good for soothing your mind and stomach." Cha Jiu said with concern.
Everyone else gasped in amazement at her actions.
The identity of this NPC has not been figured out yet! Why is she so chaotic?
Even the housekeeper and the servants held their breath, fearing that Mr. Yan would get angry and take his wrath out on them.
In this manor, besides the president, Dr. Yan is also a feared presence.
Unexpectedly, Dr. Yan was not angry at all and even took a sip of the glass of milk.
Chen Feng, who had been observing silently, had a thoughtful gleam in his eyes.
If he saw it right... this NPC seemed to smile slightly when he received the milk.
After Dr. Yan drank the milk, Cha Jiu patted his head and pretended to be upset: "Oh, I forgot, this cup of milk is the one I drank before. Let the butler give you a new one, butler!"
Doctor Yan was almost scolded again.
He covered his lips and coughed a few times, then said hurriedly: "No need to change, it's okay, I'm not used to wasting food."
The housekeeper, who was about to go forward to replace the milk, looked at him in surprise.
Is this still the Dr. Yan he knew, the one who loved cleanliness, was picky, and would remove all dishes if they didn't suit his taste?
When did you develop the habit of not wasting food?
Cha Jiu suddenly understood and gave him a thumbs up: "You have a really good habit. Not wasting food is a traditional virtue that people of today should learn."
Doctor Yan took another sip of milk, and his earlobe turned red unconsciously.
It’s strange, why does the milk taste sweeter the more I drink it today?
Seeing that the piece of toast in front of him was too thin, Cha Jiu brought it to himself, put fried eggs and vegetables in it, made a simple and nutritious sandwich, and sent it back to him.
Doctor Yan also ate it obediently.
The butler stared with eyes wide open, as if he saw that he was possessed by a ghost.
Everyone had their own thoughts on this breakfast.
Doctor Yan didn't have much food, but he ate it slowly and carefully until the end.
It was not until Cha Jiu finished his meal and was about to leave that he wiped the corner of his mouth and stood up.
"This manor has a long and interesting history. If you want to know more, you can go to the library on the first floor of the west annex building."
Doctor Yan said softly.
The surrounding players did not react.
Obviously, this tip was just for her alone.
…
After leaving the restaurant, the players gathered for a short meeting.
Chen Feng suggested: "We only have seven days to complete the game. Today is already the second day of the game, so we must hurry up and find clues. How about this? We split up and investigate the suspicious areas separately. Then we gather in the restaurant an hour before lunch to analyze the clues we have found together. How about that?"
Liao Xinzhu nodded: "I agree."
The other players chimed in.
Chen Xuan frowned, as if he had a different opinion: "What about Tian Tian? Don't we need to look for her first?"
"We cannot delay the progress of the entire mission because of one person. This would be irresponsible for everyone."
Unexpectedly, the person who said this was Liao Xinzhu, Tian Tian’s good sister.
Chen Xuan looked at her in surprise.
Liao Xinzhu also realized that his attitude was a little too cold, so he quickly explained: "What I mean is that we can look for clues and find Tian Tian at the same time, so that we won't delay either."
Chen Xuan accepted this explanation.
Although he liked Liao Xinzhu's calmness and rationality, he didn't want her to be so rational that she was cold-blooded.
Cha Jiu looked left and right, and finally saw Song Yiwan coming late.
Her face was pale and she was covering her right arm, as if she was injured.
Cha Jiu asked with concern: "What's wrong with you?"
Song Yiwan: "Many humanoid mantises appeared outside the door last night. I waited for them to return and followed them using the stealth skill. I want to know where their base camp is."
"I ended up following them to the utility room on the third floor. They seemed to sense my presence and attacked me from all directions. My arm was injured."
It turns out that the humanoid mantis came from the utility room.
Haiyun was surprised: "You are so brave. Last night, I saw those monsters in the cat's eyes and I was terrified. You actually dared to follow them."
"Danger and opportunity coexist." Song Yiwan did absorb what Yan Wugui taught her seriously.
Cha Jiu wanted to go to the library to look for clues, but he was worried that the place was too big and it would take a long time to search.
So he invited Song Yiwan: "I want to investigate the library in the annex building. Are you interested in joining me?"
Song Yiwan was slightly surprised, but still agreed.
As the two passed the stone fountain in front of the door, they once again felt the feeling of being stared at by evil eyes.
This time Cha Jiu did not choose to ignore it.
She stood in front of the statue and looked at it quietly.
Song Yiwan was surprised by her standing still and looked at the statue: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this statue?"
Cha Jiu retracted his gaze and said calmly: "Crown, armor, horse and warrior... Don't you see the identity of this stone statue?"
Song Yiwan looked more carefully, and her expression gradually widened.
"This is..."
"The demon god of the 72 pillars of Solomon, Duke Bailey who is good at soul trading."
