Lan Shuang couldn't sleep because of the noise, so she simply sat up and leaned against the headboard to look at them. Liu Quan avoided her gaze and didn't know where to look.
Li Weiyan, who was attracted by him from behind, walked over yawning and said, "What are you doing so early in the morning? Is there something wrong again?"
He peeked inside and saw Lan Shuang sitting on Jiang Lusheng's bed at first sight.
Li Weiyan: “…Ha!”
His mouth opened halfway through his yawn, and he opened it even wider when he saw the situation.
Gao Yaozu and He Ping also came over: "What's going on?"
They both looked inside and were stunned.
Gao Yaozu scratched the back of his head and asked sheepishly, "Can you still have fun at a time like this?"
Lan Shuang: “…”
God, just for fun.
She threw back the quilt and prepared to get out of bed to explain to them, but as soon as she moved, those people turned around.
Lan Shuang: “…”
Jiang Lusheng: "..."
He couldn't help laughing out loud, and Lan Shuang immediately glared at him.
"Stop your wild thoughts—" Lan Shuang tied her hair up with a small rubber band after getting off the ground. "He and I didn't do anything. How big of a heart would you have to have to do anything now?"
The others thought the same thing and turned back awkwardly. Li Weiyan saw that she was in pajamas and couldn't help asking, "Why are you two in the same bed? Did you sleep together last night? Didn't they say you can't sleep in someone else's room?"
"It's a long story. Now hurry up and wash up. After you're done, we'll gather at the dining table downstairs to discuss yesterday's information. We made a lot of very important discoveries yesterday."
After that, everyone dispersed. Lan Shuang gave Jiang Lusheng a look and went downstairs to change clothes.
Twenty minutes later, everyone got up, changed their clothes and sat downstairs.
Lan Shuang looked around and saw that everyone was changing into clothes from the wardrobe in their room. Surprisingly, these clothes fit them very well. She wondered if Rose had done anything about it.
After putting on these clothes, everyone seemed to be closer to the characters in the manor, except for a few cross-dressing characters.
"Now that everyone is here, can we talk?" Liu Quan was the first one who couldn't hold back. He had been thinking about it all night and hadn't slept well at all. He looked very haggard, and his dark circles were even more obvious after he took off his glasses.
Li Weiyan couldn't help but ask, "Did you go out and cheat last night? Why do you have such dark circles under your eyes?"
Zheng Mingxin glanced at him and pursed his lips, "It's very heavy."
"Don't mention it." Liu Quan waved his hand tiredly, feeling upset just thinking about it.
"Ding-ding—" Lan Shuang knocked on the table with her hands. Everyone immediately looked over. She cleared her throat and said, "According to the rules Rose mentioned, no one should disturb us before nine o'clock. The real plot begins after nine o'clock, so now we can talk freely."
"As usual, I'll organize everyone to get together, so I'll speak first."
After she finished speaking, she was silent for a while, as if she was organizing her words.
"Let's start from yesterday after our nap." Lan Shuang looked at everyone. "Jiang Lusheng and I went to the garden and saw a large rose bush. Among them, one red rose bush was particularly dark in color. We thought something was wrong, so we took a closer look and found a piece of blue clothing in the soil under the flowers. We suspected someone was buried there."
The first piece of news was so explosive that everyone at the table instantly quieted down, and even their breathing was barely audible.
Zheng Mingxin shuddered, "Don't scare me, I buried someone, who was it?"
Mu Tiao accepted it well. "It's hard to say. Didn't you see the woman in red before? That means there is indeed a ghost here. Now the worse news is that there may be more than one ghost."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Mingxin felt cold.
Pei Jinzhi and Wen Qingqing didn't say anything, except for one who had a frown on his face, as if thinking about something, and the other was so scared that his face turned pale and he couldn't make a sound.
Lan Shuang didn't give them time to digest what she had said. After all, time was precious right now. She went straight on, "Later, we wanted to go to the warehouse to get tools to dig up the soil, but the housekeeper found us and kicked us out. One thing worth noting here is that the gardening tools in the warehouse were locked. I wonder if it was because they felt guilty about burying someone there before."
Gao Yaozu swallowed his saliva and said, "This is too creepy."
"Everyone knows about the nap incident. Li Weiyan, He Ping, the roles you two played were one the eldest daughter and the other an unidentified guest. However, our next clue revealed your identity."
Upon hearing this, He Ping immediately became excited. He was the only one who got the answer wrong yesterday, and he was still brooding over it.
"What is my identity?"
Jiang Lusheng raised his hand and looked at him, stopping him from asking any more questions. "Listen to her."
He Ping pursed his lips and could only sit back.
Lan Shuang nodded. "No rush, I'll definitely talk about it. After my nap, I felt something was wrong and found the white pill. Everyone knows this. At that time, I had a plan in mind. I wanted to put the pill in the housekeeper's room, steal his key while he was asleep, and go to the warehouse to get tools. But at night, I changed my mind."
"Did everyone drink that glass of milk?"
Hearing her question, the expressions of the other eight people except Jiang Lusheng turned grim.
"Is there something wrong with that glass of milk?"
Liu Quan asked nervously.
Lan Shuang shook her head. "I'm not sure, but I suspected it, so I didn't drink it. I went through the drawers and found Miss Six's diary. It mentioned milk. She said she didn't like it. One time, she secretly poured out some milk, but Mom and Dad found out and scolded her."
She clasped her hands together, supporting her chin as she looked at everyone. "Don't you find it strange? If she dumped it secretly, how did she get caught?"
Everyone had different expressions and fell into deep thought.
Pei Jinzhi tapped the table with his hand and threw down two words: "Monitor."
"Right!" Lan Shuang snapped her fingers. "My first reaction was that there was a surveillance camera in the room. Then I turned off the lights and found cameras in the closet and bathroom. That was the second thing."
"What! There's a bathroom too? Then when we go to the bathroom, don't we all—"
Zheng Mingxin couldn't continue, his face flushed, embarrassed and angry, "Isn't this too outrageous?"
Even the usually carefree Mu Tiao's expression changed. "Are they available in all rooms, or just yours?"
Lan Shuang spread her hands and said, "I can't be sure. Look for them yourselves when you get back. I tend to think there are some in every room."
"Damn, what kind of perverts are these? Fuck!" Li Weiyan cursed and his neck turned red.
Liu Quan gritted his teeth and said nothing.
Lan Shuang raised her hand and said, "Don't worry, there's more."
"After that, Jiang Lusheng and I tricked the housekeeper out of the house. I knocked him unconscious from behind and forced the milk into his mouth. Then I took the key, unlocked the door, and got some tools. We went to dig someone up in the rose bushes and found the body of a beautiful young woman."
