"Why don't you go after her yourself?" Hu Kai sighed and looked at Luo Li.
Luo Li thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go by myself. I'll meet you here once I get it."
He needs to get the key.
After Luo Li left, Hu Kai took out his phone and sent a message to his teammates.
"Buzzing".
The sound of vibration came from the pocket of his pants, but Xiaoyouzi didn't even bother to look and dragged Cheng Cheng along as they ran.
Cheng Cheng was exhausted: "Little Youzi, what exactly are we supposed to do?"
"It's nothing, I just think we should stay away from them." Xiaoyouzi glanced at Cheng Cheng's phone location and then looked at the small house not far away.
A sentence suddenly popped into her mind.
Those people went towards the house.
Without time to think, Xiaoyouzi dragged Cheng Cheng to the door of the house.
This house is quite peculiar; it's neither in the courtyard nor inside the castle, but rather sandwiched between two sides, and its roof is covered with beautiful climbing roses.
"Squeak."
She reached out and gently pushed the door open.
Cheng Cheng stared blankly at the empty room: "Where am I?"
"I don't know, I just picked a random place." Xiaoyouzi shook her head and turned on her phone's flashlight.
The lights came on, revealing the very simple layout of the room to the two of them.
There was no bed, only a table, and the table was empty.
There was a hole in the wall not far away, about the width of a person, with a wooden door above it. I don't know what it was used for.
Little Yuzu's eyes darted around before suddenly landing on a pile of dust.
Without thinking twice, she hurriedly took off the key, threw it inside, and hid it.
After a pause, Xiaoyouzi took something out of her hand and held it in her palm. She turned around and asked, "Brother Chengcheng, you've lost the GPS tracker, haven't you?"
"That's it." Cheng Cheng answered honestly, and then asked in a puzzled tone, "Little Yuzu, why don't we just destroy this key?"
Because we're not on the same mission!
Little Yuzu was speechless, but still said with a cute smile, "Although it can indeed be destroyed, do you know what will happen after it's destroyed? We don't know, and we haven't found a way to escape the castle yet."
Cheng Cheng: ...That makes a lot of sense!
Indeed, compared to these tasks, the main quest is the most important.
Little Yuzu quietly moved some things to block the keys, and then smoothly put the items into her pocket.
Cheng Cheng, who was over there, saw that Xiao Youzi had hidden the key, so he came over to help.
"Alright," Little Yuzu said calmly, "Right now, all they can see is that they've locked onto this place. We need to get out of here quickly. There's no time to explain, let's run!"
Cheng Cheng was still pondering what Xiao Youzi had said when Xiao Youzi grabbed him and pulled him away, saying, "Stop thinking about it, escaping is the most important thing!"
"No, Xiaoyouzi, I don't understand..." Cheng Cheng hesitated, unable to find the right words.
"Run first, then we'll talk!"
Pulling Cheng Cheng along, they ran back into the castle, walked through the long corridor, and arrived at the other end. Xiao Youzi said, "Brother Cheng Cheng, there's something I want to show you."
Cheng Cheng was very puzzled: "What is that?"
You'll see when you see it.
Little Yuzu found a diary in the trash bag she always carried with her.
"Take a look at this."
This diary was obtained from the stone tower; it contains a diary written from the female owner's perspective.
"The woman wrote that her son was acting strangely, and her husband was acting strangely too. The episodes were happening in her son's room." Xiaoyouzi pointed to a partial map behind her and took a picture: "Let's go to the son's room and look for clues first."
Cheng Cheng frowned: "What if someone takes the key?"
"Take it if you want!" Little Yuzu said nonchalantly. "With location tracking and announcements, how can you not find it?"
Although she really wanted to take the key, Director Li and his group's scheme was too sinister, so she had to give up on that for now and focus on finding the box that locked away the evil spirit.
Cheng Cheng nodded, surprisingly finding Xiao Youzi's words quite reasonable: "Yes, Xiao Youzi is very thoughtful."
"The son's room is on the eighth floor of the building next door, let's go." Cheng Cheng also snapped a photo and ran upstairs with Xiao Youzi: Luckily, Xiao Youzi is here!
Luo Li, Bai Yu, and Zhang Qianqian met at the door of the house where Xiao Youzi and the others had left.
"Why are you all alone?" Bai Yu stared at Luo Li with wide eyes.
Luo Li remained expressionless: "I got separated from my friends, and I came here by following the key."
“We are too,” Zhang Qianqian replied.
The three of them are in a very awkward situation.
Bai Yu spoke first: "Let's look for the things first."
"Walk."
The three of them walked inside.
On the other side, the door to the child's bedroom was opened, and a strong smell of blood wafted out.
"Little Yuzu, this room smells really strong." Cheng Cheng frowned.
"Click".
When they turned on the light, what they saw were many shriveled animal carcasses.
The Filipino maids didn't clean this place; the little boy used to do all that.
Little Yuzu pondered, "Let's first look for clues about how to get out, or for clues about evil spirits."
"good."
Cheng Cheng didn't think much of it and followed Xiao Youzi to search.
After rummaging around inside for a while, Little Yuzu's eyes suddenly lit up, and her hand touched a wooden box.
Hearing Director Li's voice, Xiaoyouzi felt relieved.
Ten minutes later, she coaxed Cheng Cheng back into the small house.
