66 Castle 3
◎Trigger side quest◎
Sang Mian jumped out of bed. What was going on? The system inexplicably reminded her to work quickly? Something was wrong. Something was very wrong.
Before she had time to think about it, Xia Qing called her.
"Sister Sang, run! The groom at the wedding has discovered that an employee is missing and is heading towards your room now!"
Sang Mian: "Is that the groom who will be getting married in seven days?"
Xia Qing: "Yes! His guiqi value is 70 points, so don't let him catch you slacking off!"
The corner of Sang Mian's mouth twitched. Lou Cangyue's issue hadn't been resolved yet, and here came another groom. She just wanted to say: Jianqiu, my head hurts!
Without having time to think, she quickly ran out of the room. As soon as she stepped out of the door, Sang Mian heard faint footsteps, and there was a lot of black air in the air of the castle.
All these phenomena told her that something dangerous was approaching.
Sang Mian ran away. Maybe it was because she made too much noise, but the footsteps behind her started to get more anxious.
I don’t know how long I ran, but beads of sweat appeared on Sang Mian’s forehead. If she continued running, she would have to circle the castle. She really couldn’t run any longer.
Sang Mian looked around. There was a gorgeous-looking door in front of him on the left. There was a rose shape carved on the milky white door.
Then she should clean the room. The groom probably wouldn't say anything when he saw her working, so she made up her mind, opened the door and walked in.
The room is very spacious and has a sink, toilet and bathtub. It looks like a bathroom.
The quality of life of the rich is weirdly different. Even the bathroom is a separate room, but it seems that it has not been used for a long time, and it is all dusty.
Sang Mian frowned. There was a rag placed thoughtfully on the sink, as if it was specially prepared for her.
The footsteps stopped outside the door.
A murderous voice sounded outside the door: "Are you working?"
Sang Mian replied, "Yes sir, the bathroom is so messy!"
"You're right. I'll wait for you to finish cleaning." After hearing her affirmative response, the voices outside calmed down.
The groom was so polite. Sang Mian scratched her head. It was the first time she saw such a refined and strange person. Since the groom posed no threat for the time being, she decided to complete the side quest.
Water flowed from the golden faucet. Sang Mian wet the rag in her hand, and gradually she found that the color of the water flowing from the faucet was not right.
It slowly turns into a layer of pink from transparent color, and then gradually deepens.
Sang Mian stared at the faucet for a long time until the water turned deep red.
Sang Mian: “…” Is there any dirty stuff here?
The smell of blood gradually filled the entire bathroom. Sang Mian turned off the faucet, but she could still hear the sound of dripping water. She looked towards the source of the dripping sound and found that it was the huge bathtub in the middle of the room that was dripping.
Sang Mian was just about to go over and take a look when suddenly her eyes were attracted by a piece of paper. The note was stuck on the back of the door, almost blending in with the pure white door, and there were a few words written on it.
Mr. Chen, who has been single for many years, has been guarding the bathroom for his master. He has been lonely for a long time and very much hopes to find a life partner. Ten years ago, his target was beautiful single women. As time passed, his target gradually changed. Now Mr. Chen's target can be any woman!
Sang Mian read the words on the paper at a glance. Wow, there really is some dirt. So where is the dirt?
She looked at the bathtub, the only place that could hide a person, and coincidentally, a head was slowly popping out of the bathtub, and the man in the bathtub gave her an ugly smile.
"Mr. Chen is so ugly..." Sang Mian showed disdain. Didn't this big brother have his face repaired after his death? There was not a single piece of good skin on his face, and one of his eyes was missing. No wonder he couldn't find a girlfriend.
"Were you responsible for the bloody water?" Sang Mian asked, suppressing his disgust.
Tub didn't say anything strangely, he just stared at her and smiled foolishly, his look was as obscene as it could be.
Sang Mian wanted to say something when she saw the creature crawling out of the bathtub, crawling towards her with its bones twisted.
Sang Mian: "What the hell are you doing! If you have something to say, just talk nicely, don't crawl around!"
Saliva flowed from the corner of Tuzhu's mouth strangely, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Sang Mian became more and more strange.
"Mr. Chen, you have to love each other to find a partner. How about we discuss this? The reason you can't find a partner is probably because of your appearance. I'm the director of the Third Weird Hospital. There's a doctor in the prosthetics department of my hospital who is very skilled! As long as you're willing, I can treat you for free."
Sang Mian tried to impress Mr. Chen with her sincere advice, but unfortunately the effect was not ideal. Mr. Chen only considered it for a second and continued to crawl towards her.
"We can fall in love with each other over time." Mr. Chen licked his lips with his tongue, his dark eyes full of excitement. If the girl in front of him was ordinary-looking, he would definitely consider the proposal just now. The key is that this girl is so damn beautiful! He can't control himself! He will never let go of such a good opportunity!
Sang Mian spread his hands and said, "A forced melon is not sweet."
"I'll know if it's sweet after I taste it." Mr. Chen's greedy eyes were wrapped around Sang Mian like a snake: "Can we talk about something more sexy?"
"......" Are all the weirdness now so direct? Sang Mian smiled slightly: "Let's talk about the 14th 'Green Development, Low-Carbon Life' Theme Forum?"
Mr. Chen paused. Didn't she understand what he meant? So Mr. Chen decided to be more straightforward, "Look at your legs. If you don't let me see, I'll eat you!"
Listening to his hoarse voice, Sang Mian exclaimed in his heart, Wow, Mr. Chen is a weird guy with his own ideas.
She resolutely refused: "I only accept the judgment of the Party and the people."
Mr. Chen's face changed instantly. Since soft tactics didn't work, he decided to use hard tactics. He showed his jagged fangs and was about to pounce.
Sang Mian glanced around and saw only a mop. She couldn't stand it any longer! The second before Mr. Chen was about to pounce on her, she picked up the mop and hit him on the head viciously.
Anyway, Mr. Chen's Weirdness value is only 44 points, which is not as high as hers, so he can't even beat her.
Mr. Chen was stunned by the beating with a mop, and then he was hit by Sang Mian with a stick for more than ten times. When he came to his senses, he turned around in fear and ran away with his head in his hands.
Sang Mian’s smile gradually became more unbridled: “I told you to get plastic surgery but you refused! You insisted on forcing yourself, if you have the guts, go ahead!”
"If you don't accept my toast, you'll have to drink the wine for punishment. If one eyeball is gone, will the other one be blind too? Don't you see that my guile value is higher than yours? How dare you set your sights on me!"
In the not-so-big bathroom, Mr. Chen ran in front, and Sang Mian chased him with a mop in hand, vividly performing the scene of him running away, her chasing, and him being unable to fly away even if he had wings.
When the mop poked his butt, Mr. Chen also understood what it meant to be blinded by beauty. He didn't expect that the beautiful girl who looked quiet and lovely could be so fierce when she beat people! Every move she made was fatal!
After being hit by another fierce Thousand Year Kill, Mr. Chen let out a scream of "Ah", and then his eyes turned bloodshot as he planned to fight to the death with Sang Mian. He absolutely could not tolerate this, and he vowed to defend his dignity to the death.
Then Mr. Chen saw Sang Mian take out a green machete that was nearly three meters long out of thin air.
"I was wrong!" Tears flowed down Mr. Chen's ugly face, "I shouldn't have coveted your beauty, please let me go!"
Sang Mian held the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade in one hand, and with one hand on his waist, he looked at Mr. Chen on the ground with an evil smile: "If you don't want to die, clean up for me! Clean the bathroom within ten minutes!"
She did not forget the person outside the door. Compared with Mr. Chen in the bathroom, the groom outside was the real dangerous man, so she had to be careful at work.
Mr. Chen wiped the objects in the bathroom with a rag with a wronged look on his face. Under Sang Mian's supervision, he didn't even leave a single crack.
Sang Mian sat on the toilet lid with her legs crossed. She was no longer afraid of anything weird. Even Mr. Chen, who died in a particularly horrific way, was not afraid. Her good professionalism and the previous three games made her immune to it.
"Do you know how many monsters there are in the castle?" Sang Mian asked casually.
Mr. Chen stuck his butt out and worked hard: "Quite a lot."
Sang Mian: “Is there one in every room?”
Mr. Chen hesitated and said, "Not really. If the wall lamp next to the door is red, it means there is a weird person living inside. If it is any other color, it means there is no one living inside."
So that's how it is. Sang Mian touched his chin thoughtfully. The light next to the antique room door seemed to be red as well.
She thought of the deceased Supervisor Xu. It seemed that she still needed to fight for the position of supervisor, because the supervisor could control which room the employees cleaned. If she was the supervisor, she could designate safe rooms for her teammates. Otherwise, if someone else got the position of supervisor, the player would be in danger.
Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
There was a knock on the bathroom door, and the elegant voice outside was tinged with impatience: "Haven't you cleaned it yet?"
Sang Mian swayed, and almost forgot that the groom was still waiting for her. She should be working now, right? As long as she was working, the groom would not kill her, right?
Sang Mian took the mop and pretended to mop the floor twice before opening the door, making sure she appeared in front of the groom in working condition.
The groom was wearing a pure white shirt, with soft black hair draped over his forehead and a pair of wet puppy-like eyes. Except for his snow-white skin and the strong aura of weirdness around him, he looked like a normal human being.
The groom was not like the other weirdos. He seemed to have no ill will towards the cleaners and was just simply supervising their work.
"Hi~ Good morning." Sang Mian showed a flattering smile, "The bathroom is very clean, do you want to take a look?"
"Okay." The groom responded gently and walked into the bathroom.
He stepped into the bathroom and carefully checked the cleaning work with his back to Sang Mian. Because the groom was wearing a white shirt and the light was shining, Sang Mian vaguely saw a dark hole on the left side of his back where his chest should be.
That position is where the heart is. Having been a mortician for so many years, Sang Mian could see at a glance that the groom's chest was empty; his heart was gone.
The Guiyi is really a magical species. It can survive without a heart. Sang Mian sincerely admires this species. Suddenly, she thought of Zhao Xiaoyue again. Compared with Xiaoyue, losing a heart doesn't seem to be a big deal.
[Congratulations to the player for triggering the side quest! ]
A strange mechanical sound rang in her mind, and Sang Mian's cheeks twitched. How could the side quest be triggered when she didn't even leave the bathroom?
"You saw it..." The groom had turned around without knowing when. He stared into Sang Mian's brown pupils, and his tone exuded a chill again: "You know my secret."
Sang Mian's brain was working rapidly. What secret did she discover? She herself didn't know!
It couldn't be Mr. Chen in the bathroom, could it? Mr. Chen was just a lonely weirdo who hadn't had a partner for more than a decade, and had nothing to do with the groom.
Could it be the heart? Sang Mian suddenly realized, and she said sincerely, "Don't worry, I will never discriminate against you. I have a friend whose lower body was smashed to pieces, and only his head was still alive. You just lost your heart, and you can't even tell it when you put on clothes."
She paused and said, "If you really care, you can come to the Third Weird Hospital. As long as you have enough ghost money, we can help you repair your body."
Sang Mian was almost moved to tears by her own dedication, and she never forgot to recommend her hospital no matter when and where.
I don’t know if it was her sincere words that touched the groom, but the murderous intent in his words became less.
[Side quest: The bride of the wedding disappeared in the castle two days ago. Due to the complex terrain of the castle, the groom conducted a carpet search of the castle under the pretext of hiring a cleaner. Please help the groom find the missing bride.]
[Side quest reward: 100 million ghost coins]
[Side quest penalty: Unknown (the groom’s anger is unpredictable)]
Taking advantage of the time when the groom was silent, the side quest rang in her mind three times. Sang Mian was so angry that she laughed. It turned out that the secret was just an excuse to find the bride. The game quest was really roundabout to increase the difficulty for them.
To put it another way, she knew the main quest wouldn't be that easy.
The groom said coldly: "What are you laughing at?"
Sang Mian looked into the distance, muttering, "I saw deep sorrow in your eyes. Your forehead was dark and your eyes were dull. I concluded that your girlfriend was missing, and you tried so hard to find her that you even hired a cleaner to help you look for her."
After listening to Sang Mian's analysis, the groom fell silent. He looked at the girl in front of him in shock. She actually guessed all his thoughts correctly!
"You investigated me?"
Sang Mian raised her orchid finger and said faintly, "Do you know there is something called fortune-telling?"
"......" The groom: "Is there also fortune-telling in the Underworld?"
He has lived in the underworld for so many years and has never heard of anyone who can tell fortunes. Isn't this bullshit!
"The secret of heaven cannot be revealed." Sang Mian smiled slightly. After all, she had a system. This is called the science of metaphysics.
The groom was startled, and looked at Sang Mian with a bit more fear. He suppressed the turbulent waves in his heart and said calmly: "Besides these, what else can you see?"
