Chapter 152 Hotel Copy (10)
Jiang Man didn't want to die. To be more precise, no one wanted to die. If only one of her teammates and herself could survive, she hoped it would be herself. This was also human nature.
Jiang Man moved her gaze to the floor. She didn't dare look at Ning Hanqi, fearing that her fleeting dark thoughts would be noticed by the other party.
Then Jiang Man felt a little guilty again. In her eyes, Ning Hanqi looked young, and after working with her, he shared important information with her very quickly and efficiently. He was much better than those teammates who still needed her to scheme and calculate. There were even several times when she was caught by the supervisor and she had to rely on her to deal with them.
She really didn't want to plot against that little girl...
While Jiang Man's conscience was tormented, the supervisor had finished his long speech. Ning Hanqi summarized it and said that it was roughly assuming that each employee had an initial score of 100 points. Ten points would be deducted for each customer complaint. If the employee made a mistake, was lazy, or had other reasons, a certain number of points would be deducted based on the supervisor's judgment.
Xia Yingnuan found it much easier to use the 'I am the eldest lady' skill again.
Not only had she tried it once in the morning, but more importantly, Xia Yingnuan discovered that after she had just said that, the black shadow's trust in her had increased by a few points.
Xia Yingnuan used herself as live bait and lured a large number of voodoo dolls that followed her to the basement into the wine cellar.
She led them around the wine cellar several times, until most of the dolls that followed her had entered the room, and then she let the black shadow send her out through the crack of the door as she did in the morning.
Just before the wine cellar door closed, Xia Yingnuan caught a glimpse of the armored knight standing behind the door taking action.
In fact, if she had enough time, she would have asked the knight something, but now was not the time.
Although she framed a lot of voodoo dolls at once, in addition to the voodoo doll that was still fighting with Cui Zhongming upstairs, there were still dozens of dolls left in the living room that came down late.
They had lost their direction at first and were now running around in panic. When they saw Xia Yingnuan coming out of the basement, they immediately chased after her.
Xia Yingnuan had just come out of the wine cellar with a few voodoo dolls following behind her.
The doll containing the maid's heart was coaxed into the wine cellar by herself, and the rest were as disabled as her.
Xia Yingnuan rested for a while in the wine cellar. Now she was fully recovered and could run for a while. She originally planned to take them to the second floor, which had the most rooms, to play a real hide-and-seek game.
As a result, as soon as he arrived in the living room, he was blocked tightly. In desperation, he ran towards the door.
This was her first time going out since she came here, but she didn't expect it to be under such circumstances.
Outside the castle is a large manor. From a distance, it looks green and lush, like a neatly trimmed garden, but the entrance is gray and looks like it has not been cleaned for a long time. The weeds are almost half a person's height and it looks very desolate.
But this height is a good place for Xia Yingnuan, who has now turned into a doll, to hide.
Without thinking, she stretched out her short legs and dodged into the ochre weeds before the voodoo doll behind her could pounce on her.
After being scaled down, these half-human-high weeds looked like tall, straight trees to Xia Yingnuan.
It's okay that she played the hide-and-seek game in a high-end version for the wild.
There were weeds everywhere and no roads, so Xia Yingnuan had to walk with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and it was not smooth.
After coming in, she deliberately slowed down her pace and lowered her voice. For a moment, the bushes were quiet.
The dense noise following behind him gradually became quieter.
But even so, Xia Yingnuan did not dare to let her guard down.
The stiff arm had long lost all feeling, and Xia Yingnuan told her that its movements were somewhat unchanged. In addition, except for a short rest in the wine cellar just now, she had been moving all the time.
Now that I've slowed down a bit, my body's fatigue is evident.
But she knew that it was the final critical moment, and she could not let her guard down, so she had to endure the pain and continue moving forward.
The tall weeds completely blocked Xia Yingnuan's vision. She couldn't tell the direction or see what was in front of her.
Until she sniffed and seemed to smell a burnt smell.
At first when she first came in, she didn't pay much attention to it, but the further she went inside, the stronger the smell became.
And as she went deeper, the surroundings became quieter and quieter, with only the sound of her furry legs stepping on the weeds, making a slight crackling sound.
Xia Yingnuan's face looked unhappy. She always felt that it was too quiet here. There was not even the chirping of insects or birds. She couldn't help but tense up.
Suddenly, in the quiet weeds, a few low gasps were heard, like the low breathing of some wild beast.
Xia Yingnuan held her breath, trying to figure out where the sound came from. The next second, she gently pushed aside the weeds in front of her, and her short legs froze in place when she saw the scene in front of her.
She saw a black hound standing in front of her, with its tongue hanging out and its nose stretched out, sniffing hard.
It was raised to be strong and taller than the average Border Collie. Its fur was covered with a black sheen, its eyes were sharp, and its limbs were long and powerful.
Even if Xia Yingnuan was in her normal human form, she wouldn't do anything exciting if she suddenly encountered such a hound. What's more, Xia Yingnuan, who had turned into a doll, had to tilt her head back to see the hound's full appearance.
Although she was surprised in her heart, she did not dare to show any panic on her face, for fear of irritating the behemoth in front of her.
【bite--
Tip: You have stepped into the doctor's experimental field without permission. Be careful of the guardian of the experimental field.
There are only twenty minutes left in the game of hide-and-seek. 】
An untimely reminder sounded at this moment.
This dog game.
I have been wandering around here for almost five minutes and the reminder only appeared at this time.
Why don’t you wait until the hound in front of you swallows you whole before reminding yourself?
Her expression remained calm, but secretly her teeth were almost broken.
The hound didn't seem to react and wondered what this little thing that suddenly appeared in front of him was.
It lowered its head and approached Xia Yingnuan's face, as if wanting to smell it. What on earth was in front of it?
Xia Yingnuan didn't dare to breathe. In her current state, she couldn't even outrun a doll like herself, let alone the hound in front of her whose legs were longer and faster than her, so she gave up the idea of running away from the beginning.
Moreover, she immediately checked the other party and found that there seemed to be no black energy or anything on his body, so he should be a normal hunting dog.
The other party didn't show any aggressive behavior towards her at the beginning, so she decided to remain unchanged in the face of change.
Even though the other person came close to her and sniffed her, she did not step back.
【bite--
A potential target hound has been detected, and its trust in the player has reached 20. Do you want to use the skill 'I am the eldest lady'?
Note: This use consumes three points and allows the hound to become the lady's "ordinary servant" for one minute. During this time, the ordinary servant will obey your orders.
As the prompt sounded, Xia Yingnuan saw that there was also a number hanging on the hound's head.
She thought her skills could only be used on players or monsters in the game, but she didn't expect that they could also be used on normal animals. This was another discovery.
While Xia Yingnuan was sorting out the system prompts, the hound had already confirmed the scent on Xia Yingnuan. After taking a step back, it wagged its tail happily at the other party.
Xia Yingnuan looked at her remaining points, then looked at the hound's smooth and watery back, and was very happy.
Xia Yingnuan: Use skills, consuming sixty points.
System: Please confirm whether to spend sixty points to make the hound the young lady's 'ordinary servant' for the next twenty minutes.
Xia Yingnuan: Confirmed.
The novice gift pack gave 100 points, and the task of cleaning the doctor's room awarded another 150 points. The two operations of controlling the black shadow cost a total of 40 points.
Although she was not well off now, she still spent a huge sum of sixty points.
During the next twenty minutes of hide-and-seek, a part-time guard mount was selected.
As she spoke in confirmation, the hound nudged Xia Yingnuan's chin with its head, almost making her sit on the ground.
"Are you guarding something here for the doctor? What's in the experimental field?"
Xia Yingnuan stood on tiptoe and, when the hound lowered its head, stroked the tip of its ear and tried to talk to it.
Since he has become my ordinary servant and will obey my orders, he should be able to understand what I say, right?
She naturally wouldn't ignore the other party's previous prompt just because the system reminded her that she could use her skills.
This is the doctor's experimental field, and the hound is the guardian of the experimental field. He accidentally broke in, so he must want to know what's in here, right?
It was not known whether the hound was originally well-behaved or because Xia Yingnuan had used a skill on it, but it seemed to feel comfortable when the other party softly stroked its ears, and it arched its body and opened its mouth to breathe towards Xia Yingnuan.
After hearing what the other person said, he tilted his head, as if trying to understand what the other person said, and then turned his head to look in one direction.
Xia Yingnuan was in poor health and didn't dare to keep any pets at home, so she had never thought of doing so.
But now, the fur under her hands was soft and warm. Seeing that this hound understood some human nature, she couldn't help but rub it twice more.
"Is there something in that direction? Take me there to have a look."
Although there are some problems with communication, after all, the dog in front of us is just a spiritual dog, and it can't write words like those dogs with hair.
There was no point in Xia Yingnuan getting anxious, so she could only try to understand the other person's behavior.
The hound reacted quickly after hearing Xia Yingnuan's direction. It turned around and walked in that direction, not forgetting to look back at Xia Yingnuan, probably meaning to take her there.
But before he started walking, he suddenly turned his head, lay down on the ground, turned his head to face his back, and nodded at Xia Yingnuan.
Now Xia Yingnuan understood what the other party meant. It wanted her to sit on its back.
Although Xia Yingnuan had this idea early on, when she saw the actions of the hound in front of her, she still felt that it was too human.
If Xia Yingnuan had not turned into a doll, she probably wouldn't have needed a hound to carry her.
But she was only a palm's length now, and she was exhausted from running long ago. She didn't know how many voodoo dolls were in the grass, so she didn't have any psychological burden.
He rubbed against the other's shiny black fur, then used his hands and feet to climb onto the other's back and sit down.
Although this was her first time riding a dog, it was probably similar to riding a horse. Xia Yingnuan learned it by herself, stroking the long black hair on the hound's back with her hand, using it as a rein.
However, when the hound started walking, Xia Yingnuan realized that she was worrying too much.
Maybe because it was carrying people on its back, it walked very steadily.
After walking only two steps, Xia Yingnuan let go of her hand.
Now sitting on the back, her vision was much wider and she could roughly see the scenery in front of her.
The front yard of the castle is a large garden, and the rest of the areas are well maintained, with flowers and plants planted and fences erected. The only area facing the main building is a large patch of barren grass, with only a weed-free patch in the middle. I don't know what is planted there, as it's too far away to see clearly.
But Xia Yingnuan felt that the place the hound was carrying her to was exactly there.
The hound's steps were much more agile than hers, and in a short while, she reached the center.
I saw that this place was not empty. It looked like a small garden that had been opened up separately. Among the well-growing green leaves, there were many purple flower buds that were about to bloom.
Xia Yingnuan didn't see anything strange about the flower at first, but when she slid down from the hound's back in the few seconds she looked back, she saw that the originally purple bud had fully bloomed into a gorgeous flower.
Seeing this, the hound slowly walked over and swallowed the newly bloomed flower in one gulp, leaving Xia Yingnuan stunned.
Didn't you say you are a guardian?
Is this how you protect?
There seems to be no evidence that can directly point out that there is something wrong with the car that night. The guest does look like an NPC who survived the fire. According to her original inference, there should be no problem following that NPC, but Ning Hanqi felt a little uneasy in her heart.
It would be great if we could meet that NPC again, maybe we could get some clues from him. Unfortunately, there are too many guests in the hotel, and the players can't search all of them in just half a day.
By the afternoon, four players decided to give it a try. They all went to their supervisors to ask for leave. Jiang Man was a little hesitant at first, but when she asked her supervisor indirectly about the leave, she was ridiculed by him in a sarcastic tone, so she didn't mention it again.
Later, she felt fortunate more than once that although her supervisor was crazy, he had helped her in this matter by accident.
"Crash!" When Ning Hanqi was cleaning the desk, she suddenly heard the sound of glass breaking in the office, followed by the supervisor's scolding.
