Chapter 145 Hotel Instance (Part 3)
There were signs of fire in the guest room, and the charred corpse on the bed was lying there quietly without moving, but it was indeed the one who had just called to order food.
There was a coffee table in the middle of the hotel room. Sister Yang put the food on the food cart on the coffee table. The ashtray on the coffee table was filled with some banknotes, some in small lots. Sister Yang collected the banknotes without counting them, put them in her pocket, and pushed the cart out of the room.
There was bound to be some noise when the plates were placed, but the thing on the bed was not disturbed.
Ning Hanqi didn't say a word in the room. The place was filled with a foul stench, an aggressive smell, very pungent. It was best not to open your mouth when in the room.
"I don't know if this thing is poisonous or not?" Xia Yingnuan couldn't help but twitching her lips as she watched the hound chewing with relish.
"Why do you eat everything?"
Xia Yingnuan pinched the hound's ears again. She had had a lot of fun along the way and felt that having a pet was actually quite nice.
It's just that her body is not feeling well right now, otherwise she would like to hold the hound in her arms and rub it for a while.
It was obvious that the witch was not someone to be trifled with, and now Xia Yingnuan was a little worried as she didn't know if there was anything wrong with the flower.
The hound didn't seem to understand what Xia Yingnuan meant, but it was very kind and used its nose to push the weightless Xia Yingnuan to another purple flower that had already bloomed.
Would you like to try it too? It's delicious.
Xia Yingnuan felt as if she understood what it meant, and felt a little amused and helpless.
But she still took a closer look. The clusters of blue and purple flowers dotted the branches and leaves, which looked quite beautiful.
Xia Yingnuan reached out to pull the leaves apart and smell them, but as soon as her hand touched the leaves, the system prompt sounded.
【bite--
Congratulations to the player for obtaining Aconitum x1
Hint: You have discovered the Aconitum that the witch was trying to hide. Legend has it that Aconitum is indispensable for werewolves to transform during the blood moon. Possessing it can awaken sleeping beasts, but be careful not to be attacked by the beasts.
Xia Yingnuan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
This was the first time she had heard the words "Blood Moon Night" explicitly mentioned in a prompt since she entered the game. In other words, after completing two side quests, she finally found a clue directly related to the dungeon.
There was also the werewolf, and that hint that seemed to be either telling her to be careful or deliberately adding fuel to the fire.
It seems that these fragmented clues can be pieced together soon.
I don’t know if this was a coincidence or if I was really lucky.
Xia Yingnuan touched the hound's ear with a smile, then turned around and went to the garden to pick some Aconitum flowers and put them in the warehouse on her panel.
Such a large area of weeds was out of place with the surroundings. Xia Yingnuan smelled traces of burning shortly after she came in.
It is not difficult to guess that the witch originally wanted to destroy the aconite, but she did not expect that even after the main grass was burned, this thing still grew well.
Finally, I don’t know where I found this hound, and in the name of protection, I asked it to stay here.
Once the flowers bloom, eat them immediately.
This means that the witch and the werewolf are not from the same group.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Xia Yingnuan understood this principle, so she took the opportunity to collect more Aconitum, thinking that it might be useful.
All that was left was to wait for the time to pass, but Xia Yingnuan didn't want to stay.
She let the hound carry her as she searched the bushes for the voodoo doll that had been chasing her.
On the back of the hound, the fox is borrowing the tiger's power to bully others. Uh, no, it should be called the man borrowing the dog's power to bully others.
Looking at those voodoo dolls, he was very happy to see her at the beginning, then felt helpless when he found that he could not touch her, and finally felt panic when he was chased by hounds.
She lay on the hound's back, laughing happily.
It's because she holds a grudge. She was chased so badly before, and now she has to get revenge.
Seeing that the time was almost up, she gently pulled the hair on the hound's neck and gestured in the direction of the castle, and the hound ran in that direction.
At this moment, the battle on the third floor and in the basement has almost come to an end.
Xiaoxue and Li Shuai had just completed a side quest. They were very tired and wanted to find a corner in the living room to rest.
As a result, they heard a hearty laugh coming from outside the door, and listened carefully to a voice that sounded like Xia Yingnuan's. The two of them moved to the door involuntarily.
As a result, he suddenly saw a miniature version of Xia Yingnuan, sitting on the back of a hunting dog and shouting.
Before she could be surprised, she saw that the other person was holding a piece of wild grass in his hand, and something seemed to be tied to the other end. She looked closely and confirmed that the other end was tied to a doll about the same size as her, but the doll was not as cute as Xia Yingnuan.
Xia Yingnuan stared at the countdown, and before the last second came, she slid down from the hound's back along the weeds in her hand.
【bite--
The hide-and-seek game time is over, congratulations to the player for surviving successfully. 】
As the prompt sound ended, Xia Yingnuan returned to her original appearance. Her arms, which had been a little stiff, gradually regained consciousness. The doll tied with weeds suddenly disappeared.
Xiaoxue and Li Shuai originally thought that the side quest they completed was amazing enough, but now when they saw Xia Yingnuan suddenly change from a Q version to her original appearance, they felt that they still lacked experience.
The first thing Xia Yingnuan did after she came back to life was to hold the hound in her arms and rub it for a long time.
Although the skill time had expired, the hound did not show any reluctance to Xia Yingnuan's approach. Instead, it rubbed its furry head against Xia Yingnuan's neck, making her laugh out of itchiness.
The man and the dog hugged each other for a long time before Xia Yingnuan reluctantly separated.
"I'll play with you again when I'm done."
Because of system restrictions, the other party could not come out of the experimental field. Xia Yingnuan pinched its ears for a while before letting it run back.
When she stood up, she saw two stunned people standing on the steps.
"Did you just finish the side quest?"
Xia Yingnuan patted the dog hair on her hands. Seeing that both of them looked a little embarrassed, she asked casually. Without waiting for the other party to answer, she seemed to remember something and pointed to the grass.
"This is a female...doctor's experimental field. There are vicious dogs inside. Stay away."
She quickly changed her words halfway through, fearing that Xiaoxue and Li Shuai would be punished for knowing the doctor's secret.
From the doctor's attitude in the morning and the side quest they had just completed, Xiaoxue and Li Shuai knew it was not easy to get into this experimental field, so they nodded quickly.
Xia Yingnuan was very satisfied to see that the trust level of the two people had increased by a few more points, and she felt very happy.
Bang Bang——
Before the three of them could say a few words, they heard two sounds of heavy objects falling to the ground in the living room.
Following the sound, I saw Cui Zhongming looking in a state of disarray, kneeling on the ground with his legs straight, unable to get up.
Xia Yingnuan was stunned for a moment, then pinched her chin, looking a little incredulous. "I just led away most of the voodoo dolls. You don't have to be so polite and give me such a big gift, right?"
Which eye of yours saw that I was saluting?
My legs were just stiff for too long, and it took me a long time to recover after they returned to normal.
Besides, if it weren’t for you, would I have encountered such a thing?
Perhaps there were too many things to complain about, so Cui Zhongming simply shut up and gave Xia Yingnuan an eye roll that was almost rolling out of his head.
Then Xia Yingnuan saw that the trust level on the other person's head finally broke through 0.
But instead of going up, it fell from 0 to -10.
Xia Yingnuan's self-confidence was hit.
Before Xia Yingnuan could use the experimental field incident to test the other party to see if the trust level could be increased, she heard some movement coming from the stairs.
When I looked up, I saw the doctor standing on the steps, oh, no, now I should call her the witch.
Before Xia Yingnuan could react, she saw the two people standing on her left and right took a step back in unison, as if they were very afraid of the doctor.
Xia Yingnuan gave Xiaoxue a puzzled look.
"She's very powerful. In the side quest just now, Li Shuai and I almost suffered a great loss."
Facing the doctor's gaze, Xiaoxue didn't dare to say much and only briefly explained the situation.
Xia Yingnuan nodded without saying anything.
In fact, ever since the doctor appeared, Xia Yingnuan's eyes have been on her, or to be more precise, on the scepter in her hand.
She didn't use the thing as a crutch like she did in the morning, but just held it in her hand.
The scepter was completely black, no different from the one Xia Yingnuan saw in the morning, except that it seemed to emit a little red light when it was held in the witch's hand at the very top.
Before Xia Yingnuan could see clearly, the witch's sleeve covered her entire hand.
She stared at Xia Yingnuan with bloodshot eyes, her gaze filled with undisguised greed.
It was like a wolf with green light finally saw its food.
The person who was watching felt uneasy and then uttered a few words in a low voice.
"I've finally waited for you. You're doing great..."
From beginning to end, the witch's gaze was always on Xia Yingnuan. There was no need to specify who she was talking to.
As the words fell, the atmosphere in the entire castle suddenly became cold.
Li Shuai and Xiaoxue couldn't help but shiver, their whole bodies tensed up involuntarily, worried that the doctor would take action at any time.
But unexpectedly, the other party did not seem to have any intention of taking action.
After saying that, he turned around and went upstairs again.
All that was left was the end of the scepter knocking against the wooden stair railing.
Xia Yingnuan didn't have any special reaction, but just concentrated, trying to understand the meaning of the other party's words.
"What mission did you just complete? Did you offend her? What did she mean by that?"
Xiaoxue waited until the doctor was no longer visible before she approached Xia Yingnuan and asked cautiously.
Xiaoxue's reason for asking this question was not just to get some information from Xia Yingnuan, but also because she was worried about her.
After all, Xia Yingnuan had already proactively given them reminders several times, and if the other party encountered any problems, they would also like to help.
"Are you sure you want to know?" Xia Yingnuan turned around and looked at her with amusement, "Even if I just found out something I shouldn't have, that's why I was turned into a doll and played hide-and-seek for an hour?"
"No, no, I'm glad you're okay. If you have any problems, just tell us."
Xiaoxue shook her head like a rattle. She didn't have as much ability as Xia Yingnuan, so she just hoped to be safe.
Xia Yingnuan nodded, "My mission is complete. I still need to ask the NPC for clues. We'll talk later."
Although they had been rewarded with points for cleaning the doctor's room, Xia Yingnuan still wanted to find the maid who had given them the task before and ask for clues. Besides, Xia also had her own selfish motives.
There was so much noise on the third floor just now, but there was no sound in the housekeeper's room.
Maybe the maid knows something about the butler.
"How can I trouble you? Xiao Ning and I are here." Sister Yang said somewhat flattered.
"There are a lot of people here today, and Xiao Ning is a newcomer. How can you take care of her and maintain order at the same time? The supervisor was scolded during the meeting just now and is in a bad mood. Nothing must go wrong today, okay?" The foreman winked at Sister Yang.
Sister Yang nodded immediately, her eyes full of dependence.
Perhaps even if the foreman said he would kill the supervisor with a knife tonight, Sister Yang would help sharpen the knife without hesitation.
