Chapter 206 The Ghost Reappears
Lin Jiu pushed the door open and walked in.
In an instant, the Ce Mo Ling stopped responding.
The light in the utility room was still on. Lin Jiu frowned and finally retreated.
Back in the living room, Anna and Joel were still there.
The two little guys' eyes lit up instantly when they saw Lin Jiu.
Anna and Joel ran to Lin Jiu and shook his hand without saying a word.
"Brother, let's play hide-and-seek!" Joel said, shaking Lin Jiu's hand.
Lin Jiu looked down at him and refused bluntly: "No, now is not the time to play games."
Joel was immediately unhappy when he heard this.
But when he was trying to make Lin Jiu compromise by throwing a tantrum, he suddenly noticed that Lin Jiu's eyes were not friendly.
The cold gaze scared Joel, but in the blink of an eye, Lin Jiu returned to his original gentle appearance.
It was as if it was just an illusion.
"Be obedient. The castle is not safe now. Let's just sit in the living room or go back to our rooms, okay?" Lin Jiu squatted down and said softly.
Joel was probably frightened by Lin Jiu's brief change of expression, and nodded obediently.
Anna always gave Lin Jiu the impression of being a good girl. She had no objection, nodded, and took Joel back to the sofa to play.
Seeing this, Lin Jiu nodded with satisfaction and walked upstairs.
After Lin Jiu walked away, Joel looked up at the second floor.
He pulled Anna's skirt and whispered, "This brother is a bit scary..."
Anna looked up, puzzled: "Why do you say that?"
Children have limited descriptive abilities, and Joel hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "The expression is scary."
At that time, Anna could only see Lin Jiu's jawline when she looked up, so she was very confused about what Joel said.
"Pretty brother is pretty, not scary."
Anna said, taking Joel's hand, telling him to stop saying such strange things, and stuffed the picture book into his arms.
Soon, Joel's attention was focused on picture books.
at the same time.
Not long after going up to the second floor, Lin Jiu met Todd and Hicks.
Not surprisingly, they found nothing.
"Just now at the door of the utility room, the magic bell responded." Lin Jiu said, raising his wrist.
Looking at Lin Jiu's expression, it was clear that he didn't gain much. Todd didn't ask any further questions. He walked up to Lin Jiu, tapped him lightly on the head, and then went to the third floor.
Lin Jiu covered his head and looked at Todd's back as he walked up.
He knew Todd was acting alone so he knocked him on the head instead of giving him a lecture.
Hicks didn't know this. He looked at Lin Jiu curiously: "What is this...?"
Lin Jiu put his hand down and said, "Nothing, I was just discovered while acting alone."
Hearing this, Hicks immediately understood.
The two men walked behind, and Hicks explained that they saw a white shadow when they were patrolling on the second floor. Later, when Todd and he chased it to a corner, the white shadow disappeared.
The magic bell also did not respond during the whole process.
Hicks almost thought he was hallucinating, but Todd was sure it wasn't.
When we arrived at the third floor, the housekeeper had just finished delivering dinner and was about to go downstairs.
It looked like Mr. and Mrs. Smith would not dine with them tonight.
From the housekeeper's words, we know that Laura is still sleeping, and Essen is awake, but not very energetic.
Todd intended to stay on the third floor for a while.
So he turned around and asked Hicks and others to call the others back and wait in the living room.
It's almost dinner time.
Lin Jiu was kept by Todd.
"Are there any new discoveries?" Lin Jiu asked, following behind Todd.
Todd turned and looked at him, "No."
"Is this true?"
"Really." Todd said without turning his head, "I thought this castle would be dangerous, but it seems to be even more dangerous than I thought."
Although nothing has happened yet, the various discoveries so far are telling Todd that this castle is even stranger than he had expected.
The magic hidden underground, strange ghosts and strange castles...
Todd had a hunch.
"The danger is coming soon and we need to remain highly vigilant."
Little did he know that his words would come true.
…..
As expected, Todd and Lin Jiu found nothing on the third floor.
Back in the living room, the players were already waiting.
Anna and Joel were nowhere to be seen, and these two little ghosts gave Lin Jiu the feeling that they were ghosts.
Today's strange sleeping incident still has not been given a reasonable explanation. Among all the people, only Lin Jiu had a dream, while everyone else slept soundly.
Fortunately, there was nothing abnormal with the players and they were all in good condition.
Perhaps because they didn't see any ghosts, the three newcomers were just a little nervous.
Soon, the butler came out of the restaurant and said that dinner was ready.
Anna and Joel, who had disappeared, were sitting in the restaurant. The two little ones had already started eating. When they saw Lin Jiu come in, they asked him to sit between them.
It seems that they have been prepared for this.
Charles frowned slightly, looking a little unhappy.
Lin Jiu did not refuse. He looked at Todd, who looked at him asking something.
Lin Jiu shook his head slightly.
Anna and Joel had no problem.
After dinner, Anna and Joel didn't pester Lin Jiu to play games. They ran out of the restaurant one after another, not knowing whether they were going back to their room or not.
The night patrol continued as usual, but because Group 2 had to go shopping the next day, Todd let them rest early.
Time soon came to late at night.
Lin Jiu found the right opportunity to look for Todd once.
Mr. and Mrs. Smith were indeed dead, after all, they smelled like corpses.
But the hint did not tell Lin Jiu that the Smiths were possessed by a demon.
The prompt box shows: [Vampire with unbalanced bloodline]
"Are you sure they are possessed?"
Todd nodded affirmatively, then asked, "Any questions?"
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Jiu said, "I don't think they are possessed."
He didn't say it too absolutely. Anyway, with Todd's personality, he would definitely listen to his words.
Since Group 2 took a break early, the patrol work on the second floor was divided equally between Groups 1 and 3.
Lin Jiu wanted to go to the third floor to take a look, so he thought about discussing with Todd to send someone down.
At this moment, a loud noise was heard from the third floor.
What followed was the sound of breaking glass and Anna's crying.
The demon-testing bell rang for a moment, but soon returned to calm.
When Lin Jiu heard the noise, he reacted quickly and rushed upstairs, but when he reached the second floor, a white shadow suddenly passed by him.
The second group of players, who had just fallen asleep for a while, also walked out of the room at this time.
Lin Jiu looked at the white shadow that was not far away and slowly pulled out the silver dagger.
This thing seemed to be preventing Lin Jiu from going up to the third floor.
Anna's crying was still going on, but Lin Jiu heard someone rushing over.
Essen and Laura also seemed to leave the room.
