While the maid Xiaosuo was treating the girl she met on the road, Ren Suo was controlling Master Mu to check the warehouse at investigation point No. 26.
This warehouse is a place where clues can be found, and because a special plot was finally triggered this time, Ren Suo was in a good mood, so he asked Master Mu to check every corner of the warehouse. He even clicked "further investigation" several times when he saw "rat shit" in the corner.
Through this comprehensive investigation, we were able to uncover more information than in previous investigations.
Master Mu was examining the black stain on the ground in the state of "Magic Eyes All-Seeing". Suddenly, a strange picture flashed through his mind: a thin man, a murdered woman, a hatchet, lights, and a row of neatly armored warriors...
"Here, there were villains who slaughtered dozens of civilians in the name of the Demon Lord. They committed evil for half a month and were only recently discovered by the Soul Hall warriors."
There was no need for Ren Suo to analyze the scene here, Master Mu quickly sorted out the clues by himself: "This is my first time in Yingzhou, so it is impossible for me to have recruited this subordinate more than ten days ago.
This villain was mentally ill. After being discovered by the warriors of Yingzhou Soul Hall, he swore to resist to the death. Finally, he died chanting the words "On the day when the Demon Lord comes, all traitors must die." However, he did not seem to recognize me and did not pronounce my name.
However, when the people from the Holy Temple succeeded in slandering me, this testimony became one of the straws that the six major sects used to attack me.
But the evildoer was thin and weak, and could be bullied. It was obvious that he was not a murderer before. Why did he suddenly gain the power to kill others? And why did he believe in the Demon Lord so devoutly? "
The total clue rate increased to 1.9%!
There was no more place to investigate at Investigation Point No. 26, so Ren Suo asked Master Mu to leave the warehouse. When he went out, he saw the maid Xiaosuo stroking the rescued woman's hair like she was petting a cat.
The rescued woman sobbed and thanked the maid Xiaosuo, and kept expressing her gratitude, but the maid Xiaosuo just smiled and touched her head without saying a word.
When Master Mu came out, the rescued woman hurriedly thanked Master Mu: "I am Ayane, thank you both for your help."
Master Mu threw out a stream of flame, completely burning the man's body on the ground to ashes, and then said: "We are new to Edo and are unfamiliar with the place. I didn't expect that we would help you kill this villain when we saw injustice. I wonder if the young lady can take us to find a place to stay so that we can hide for a few days?"
Ayane tightly grasped the hand of the maid Xiaosuo and nodded: "No problem, there is still a vacant room in my house, you two benefactors can stay temporarily. But my home is in Musashi, which is a little far from Edo, I don't know..."
Mr. Mu: "There is carriage traffic between Musashi and Edo, so it's OK. My maid is shy and not good at speaking, why don't you..."
Ayane heard this but did not let go. Instead, she held the maid Xiaosuo's hand tightly in her bosom and said, "She and I hit it off right away and should become good friends. Besides, I am still a little scared now. This little sister has a very comfortable fragrance and a very pleasant voice when she comforts me. Please let me go with her for a while."
Mr. Mu: "Okay."
"Due to special reasons, Mr. Mu's mood has been slightly affected, and his current state is 'happy'."
Although his mood seemed to be slightly lowered, compared to the 'extremely low mood' caused by "choosing traditional treatment methods", Ren Suo could completely accept this situation: both rounds were not wasted, and he also completed the task of 'finding a place to live'!
There was another cutscene of a carriage passing by, and the camera switched to a Japanese-style house. Although there were no candles, the house was bright.
Master Mu: "I am very tired today. I want to take a shower and change clothes."
Ayane said, "There is hot soup in the bathroom, please help yourself. By the way, there is only a master bedroom and a second bedroom in the house, I wonder how to allocate them?"
At this point, three options appear in the game:
"Ayane and Kosuo share a room"
"Mr. Mu and Ayane share the same room."
"Mr. Mu and Xiaosuo share the same room."
Ren Suo saved the game silently, then clicked on the first option: Ayane and Xiaosuo sleep together.
Ayane was delighted: "Okay, okay."
The maid Xiaosuo also nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, then I won't be polite."
Game prompt: "Due to special reasons, Mr. Mu's mood has been seriously affected and his current state is 'depressed'."
Tsk, hypocrite.
You just don't want to sleep alone!
Load the game and click on the second option: Mr. Mu and Ayane sleep together.
Ayane hesitated slightly, but still nodded and said, "This... is also fine. I hope you won't mind my poor sleeping posture."
Mr. Mu: "Of course not."
Maid Xiaosuo: "Then I will sleep in a room by myself! Haha."
Game prompt: "Due to special reasons, Mr. Mu's mood has been slightly affected, and his current state is 'a little happy'."
ha?
I asked you to sleep with a beautiful girl you just met, but why are you still in a bad mood?
Ren Suo had no choice but to reload the game and click on the third option: Master Mu and Xiaosuo sleep together.
The maid Xiaosuo was shocked: "Sharing a room with the young master... isn't that bad?"
Master Mu said firmly, "What's wrong with that? Isn't this just a matter of time? Why are you shy?"
Maid Xiaosuo: "Well... well, I won't be polite."
Game prompt: "Due to special reasons, Mr. Mu's mood has been seriously affected, and his current state is 'shame and anger'."
Ren Suo blinked, looked at the prompt that popped up on the screen, hesitated for a moment, and chose to call his father.
Father Ren didn't know whether he was slacking off in the teacher's office after class or had already gone home to slack off (having been a teacher for decades, he had mastered the skill of slacking off), so he immediately answered the phone: "..."
Ren Suo: “…”
Ren's father: "......?"
Ren Suo: “……!”
"Tell me what's the matter."
"Dad, does the word shame and anger represent a good emotion or a bad emotion?"
Ren's father: "Son, I teach mathematics."
Ren Suo: "Brother, have you forgotten that in addition to teaching me the multiplication table in the community garden, you also taught me 300 Tang poems? You, the math teacher, taught me Chinese!"
Ren's father: "Well, brother, let me tell you, this word has both good and bad meanings, depending on the tense and the subject."
Ren Suo: "What tense is the subject?"
Ren's father: "Let's put it simply. If it's a man, then it's basically because he's in a bad mood, and he's angry because he's been humiliated. If it's a woman, then it could be because she's angry because she's been humiliated, or it could be because she's angry because she's embarrassed."
Ren Suo: "Won't men get angry out of shame?"
There was silence on the other end of the line.
Ren's father recalled that Ren's mother once said that her son was very popular among men in Lianjiang, and he exhaled slowly: "Son, your family will always support you."
Ren Suo: “Hmm?”
Ren's father: "I won't ask anything. No matter what you become, in your parents' eyes, you are still the silly kid who is still playing in the mud. Remember, safety comes first. Protective measures must be taken."
After hanging up the phone, Ren Suo touched his head, wondering if it was because he hadn't been home for too long. He could no longer keep up with the pace of his parents' conversation.
He turned his gaze back to the screen, thinking that if what his father said was right, then Master Mu’s mood would also be bad because he slept with the maid Xiaosuo?
Are you angry because you feel insulted by sleeping with a maid?
Ren Suo felt that this speculation was very correct - it couldn't be that he was angry because Master Mu slept with the maid Xiaosuo and was too shy, right?
But Master Mu woke up in the same bed with Ling'er at the very beginning. He looked like a veteran and experienced man. How could he be shy about sleeping with a maid?
So after looking at it this way, Ren Suo suddenly discovered that all three options had negative returns! ?
Ren Suo thought about it, then decisively returned to the main interface of the game and opened "Xiao Suo's Secret Diary".
Sure enough, three new lines of ink appeared below:
"Will you think anything if I sleep with Ayane?"
"Will you have any thoughts if I sleep alone in the big bed?"
"What would he think if he slept with me?"
After clicking all of them, the three lines of ink became one line: "This is the only way, but how should I say it?"
Ren Suo clicked on it and found that he had to spend money to help Xiaosuo think, but this time it was very cheap, only 1 merit.
One point of merit cannot buy you a loss, and one point of merit cannot buy you being cheated. Ren Suo, who is a man of the ability to "pluck feathers from passing geese", likes this kind of consumption of one point of merit the most, so naturally he chooses to spend money on it, which is equivalent to having sex with the maid Xiaosuo once.
The light ink then quietly turned into heavy ink: "Okay, I know what to do."
Ren Suo reloaded the game and found an extra line in the options: "Ask about the lock."
Master Mu approached the maid Xiaosuo and asked in a low voice, "There are only two rooms, Xiaosuo, how do you think we should divide them?"
Maid Xiaosuo: "Of course, Ayane will have one room, Master Mu will have one room, and I will sleep in the living room!"
Master Mu: "Really? But you can sleep with us too. You see, Ayane really wants to sleep with you. As for me, if you beg me, maybe I will agree, right?"
The maid Xiaosuo shook her head repeatedly: "No, no, it's better to be careful when you go out, and we are unfamiliar with the place. I have to help keep watch in the living room, how can I hide in the comfortable quilt?"
Mr. Mu: "Then...you will sleep in the living room?"
Maid Xiaosuo: "Yeah, yeah, I like sleeping in the living room the most."
Game prompt: "Due to special reasons, Mr. Mu's mood has been slightly affected, and his current state is 'quite happy'."
这次总算是打出最好的开局了，任索松了口气——没想到晚上这个‘谁跟谁睡’居然也能牵扯出一段小剧情，然而正确做法却是让侍女小锁一个人睡。
幸好老子聪明，先是问了一下老爸关于‘羞怒’的正确解释，然后要点开《小锁的秘密日记》看看，发现了真相。
不然他多半会觉得‘羞怒’是一个好东西，直接选择第三个选项，造成负收益。
这个可是5星游戏，每一个选项都必须小心谨慎。曾经有著名军事家说过：战争初期所犯下的失误是无法弥补的。
同理，游戏初期所犯下的失误，到了后面就会累积起来，最后变成无法通关的致命漏洞。
身为资深高玩，任索当然要在游戏初期做到尽善尽美。他在玩《跨越我的尸体》时，费了无数功夫刷出一个最好开局，便是这个道理。
这个小剧情结束后，游戏弹出一个选项：「进入第二天」。
现在任索已经没有其他事可做，点击进入第二天，游戏出现提示：「魔尊经过一晚上短暂但安稳的休息，心情非常不错，但终究只是稍微休息了一下，所以只有一部分怨恨被净化。
魔尊心情从‘颇为愉悦’变为‘颇为愉悦’，本回合怨恨净化量为10000。」
净化了10000怨恨！
‘颇为愉悦’状态下净化的怨恨量，是‘超低落’的五倍！
而且更重要的是，这不是正经休息，他们两个的夜晚行动并非休息，而是进行调查。
这份怨恨净化，只是因为过夜而顺带触发的！
如果任索让魔尊在白天选择「好好休息」这个行动，估计净化量要翻倍，甚至不止！
通过‘逃亡第一天’的完美攻略，任索算是彻底明白这个游戏的主要目标：明面上两个任务是最终任务，而落实到游戏里，最需要他关注的一点，就是要维持好主角的心情！
而如何维持好主角心情，关键当然是侍女小锁！
通过《小锁的秘密日记》，任索或许能让慕公子的心情一直维持在愉悦之上！
这个才是侍女的正确用法！
“叮铃铃——”
闹钟响了，提醒任索要去接小玖放学，于是他赶紧存好档穿好衣服出门。
任索曾经想过要不要远程遥控分身去接小玖放学，但他最终还是否决了这个想法——分身要用在刀刃上，接小玖放学这种来回半小时的事，不值得。
只有当小玖熟睡后，平静但充满家务的家，才是分身大展拳脚的地方！
任索很快就走到学校门口，正好看见小玖和一个身材高挑的女老师在校门口，便一边打招呼一边过去：“小玖！”
正在和老师聊天的小玖看见任索，用力地挥挥手说道：“大哥哥！”
当任索靠近，小玖忽然跟老师说道：“苏老师，你看大哥哥怎么样？大哥哥肯定是个好男人哦！”
苏老师脸色一红，“小玖你胡说什么！”
任索脸色一僵，苏老师又连忙解释道：“不，我不是说你不是好男人……小孩子乱说话，你别放到心里去。”
然而小玖却是躲到任索身后，扭扭捏捏地说道：“苏老师你以前不是要小玖帮你找个好男人吗？小玖找到了，你怎么还骂我……”
这老师要学生帮忙找男人？
任索看了看苏老师，感觉长得还不错啊，心想现在的婚恋市场已经这么紧张了吗？
苏老师连忙解释道：“那是小彤跟你开的玩笑……对了，你是任小玖的亲人吗？小玖今天说为我介绍男朋友，我还以为白先生过来接她……啊，我的意思不是……”
眼看着苏老师又要语无伦次起来，任索扯了扯嘴角，说道：“老白的确是个好男人，要我把他微信和手机号给你吗？”
苏老师脸色一红，拿出手机：“那……我就笑纳了。”
完成一波PY交易后，任索才说道：“没错，我现在算是任小玖的监护人，我叫任索。”
因为姓氏相同的原因，苏老师似乎马上认定任索和小玖有血缘关系。她瞄了瞄任索，微微皱眉：“我是小玖的班主任，苏锦璇。你是不是……和小玖去过漫展？”
任索脸色一变！
他在漫展的行动应该非常完美，没让自己和小玖暴露在任何人的视线中，怎么还被人发现了！？
不等他想出杀人灭口的计划，苏锦璇便继续说道：“幸亏小玖那时候在地铁站遇到我，你虽然不是小玖的父母，但你也该屡行照顾小玖的责任，怎么能自己去漫展将小玖丢在地铁站？
之前是东小姐和白先生来接小玖，我也不好跟他们说这些。这次你总算亲自来了，我一定要向你普及一下，现在社会存在许多专门对儿童下手的危险分子……你身为监护人，千万要小心……”
任索听了一会，又和小玖进行一番眼神交流，终于明白苏锦璇和小玖的关系：当初小玖来漫展，就是拜托苏老师带她去的。
然后小玖发现了携带圣杯的任索，便与苏锦璇分别去找任索了。
只是没想到小玖就读的学校里，恰好就是苏锦璇当她的班主任！
理顺思路之后，任索便知道苏锦璇应该是什么事都不了解，只是以为任索当初和小玖去漫展玩，便暗暗松了口气。
他用无比真诚的语气说道：“老师我知道错了，绝对没有下次。希望老师别把这事告诉其他人，不然我和小玖，也许又要分开了……”
也许是因为任索真诚的语气，让苏锦璇脑补出三十集以上的长篇合家欢剧场。
她语气稍缓，说道：“我当然不会嚼人舌根，也没有将这件事说出去，你知道错就好……对了，最近小玖经常在学校玩手机，你有教育她吗？”
任索马上盯向小玖：“别在学校玩手机，要好好学习！”
小玖摇摇头，一脸真善美地说道：“大哥哥，你想想，手机我们只能用几年，而我们却能活几十年。对我们来说，手机只是我们的一部分，但对手机来说，我们确实它的全部。
我们应该放下手上的功课，好好陪伴手机才是……”
任索一巴掌拍到小玖小脑袋上——小丫头你的魅惑+歪理可阻挡不了真理的拳头。现在东承灵加班修炼，任索也只好唱唱黑脸，好好管教一下小玖了。
不过任索看了看苏锦璇，忽然说道：“苏老师，上了一天课是不是很累？”
苏锦璇有些诧异，微微点头：“有一点吧，做老师是这样的。”
任索说道：“你照顾了小玖这么多次，我都没能好好谢谢你……啊，不如我们去对面的星巴克坐一下聊聊？我请。”
苏锦璇犹豫了一下，这时候小玖过来拉了拉苏老师的手，而且星巴克里面也有不少人，最后便点头答应——她正好还有很多事想跟任索说，例如小玖的手机问题、小玖的早恋问题、小玖的后援团问题……
不过苏锦璇在咖啡店坐下没多久，任索听了她一会唠叨后，忽然说道：“老师真是辛苦呢。”
“是啊……”苏锦璇忍不住流露情绪，叹了口气：“而且我是年轻教师，还得当班主任，跑都跑不掉……啊，请忘了我这些话吧。”
“如果太累的话，不如在这里小憩一会吧。”
苏锦璇的视线情不自禁被任索双手十指的舞动所吸引，意识开始模糊起来，最后沉沉睡去。
等她醒来的时候，是星巴克的女店员叫醒了她。
“有位先生给我小费，让我不让其他客人骚扰睡着的你，如果20分钟后你没醒来，就让我叫醒你。”女店员将一张小纸条递给她：“这是那位先生留下来的。”
苏锦璇看了看纸条上的字：「这是我微不足道的能力之一，希望能让你有一次舒适的睡眠，算是我的小小答谢。」
苏锦璇晃了晃脑袋，感觉头脑非常清晰，像是好好睡了8小时一样。
回忆起对任索的印象，苏锦璇忽然发现，任索其实说话挺好听的，而且身上还有一股令人感到非常安心的气味。
可能就是因为这份印象，所以才让她卸下防备吧？
“白先生……是我无法靠近的高岭之花吧。但如果是他的话……或许……”
小鹿乱撞的苏锦璇，有点失落地发现她没拿到任索的不过小玖在她班上，走的了和尚走不了庙，不急……
