Jianjia, also known as reed.

The players who were kicked out eventually came back because Mrs. Qin opened the net on one side.

After experiencing this incident, these players have restrained themselves a lot. They are as honest as quails and never dare cause trouble again.

After all, if they fail the game, they will just go to the parallel world. At least, they are still alive but if they fall into the gap between time and space, their life may not be saved.

Everyone cherishes their lives.

They were all wet and uncomfortable, and had no change of clothes. Acting as the host, Butler Li ordered a towel for each of them, but there was not much. This is just to prevent water from dripping wherever they go, staining the floor.

It really cut a sorry figure.

After Rong Zheng got permission to go to the basement, he also invited these players to go together. Players who had just experienced this were all uneasy and willingly stay in the front hall honestly. They didn't want to go anywhere, so they rejected Rong Zheng's offer. Only two players were willing to go with them, one was Qin Ge, who was a little curious, and the other was Bai Wan, who was lucky enough not to be thrown out immediately by the bodyguard because of her status as a woman, and gained Mrs. Qin's tolerance.

Third Young Master Qin was dissatisfied with his mother's forgiveness, but he couldn't say anything directly, so he snorted and went upstairs. Butler Li had to wait upon Mrs. Qin who was in poor health. Finally, the manservant took Rong Zheng's three people to the basement. Second Young Master Qin said he wanted to get something and followed him.

The remaining people, including Bai Leshui, were left in the front hall on the first floor.

Bai Leshui saw Mrs. Qin whispering something to Butler Li. Butler Li shook her head. Mrs. Qin's face turned pale and she lowered her head in lament.

Bai Leshui: "Xiaojiu, did you hear what they were saying ma?"

1069: "I heard it. Madam asked: Have those things been hidden? Butler said: They are hidden. It's just that one of Eldest Young Master's things is missing. They may know."

Bai Leshui: "What about others ne?"

1069: "Then they stopped talking ya. Host, don't care about these unimportant things. The biggest problem is, how to scare those players to death."

Bai Leshui: "There are only so many things a lunatic can do, so just stick with it ba. Otherwise, we won't eliminate people but will be exposed."

1069: "Yeah, I'd better choose a better character for host next time."

 The other side.

To go to the basement, you have to go through the back garden. It is raining heavily outside. The manservant asked Rong Zheng if he wanted to wait until the rain stopped before going, but Rong Zheng refused. He always felt that something important was missing from the clues he collected. Rong Zheng thought, Maybe he can find the answer by taking a look in the basement.

And it's always too late and never too early to look for clues and explore secrets.

But... Mrs. Qin agreed too readily, which made Rong Zheng less hopeful about clues he could find in the basement.

"I heard the manservant employed here was named Lu Wei?" Rong Zheng asked Second Young Master Qin while waiting for the manservant to take umbrellas.

Second Young Master Qin responded lazily.

Rong Zheng stopped asking, there was no need to ask again.

He remembered the scattered book pages on the ground and the bookmark that fell on the ground when he saw Qing Zhuo on the fourth floor.

Jianjia, also known as reed.

Reed, Lu Wei.

The person Qing Zhuo likes is not the eldest son of the Qin family, but Lu Wei, who lives in the Qin family and works for the Qin family.

He always feel a little unhappy. Watching the manservant bring several umbrellas over, Second Young Master Qin took one first, and Rong Zheng other three each took another, leaving only the last black one, which was held by the manservant Xiao Zhang. Bringing them from the back door of the villa to the back garden.

After being led by the manservant, Rong Zheng discovered that there was a secret door hidden behind the villa.

Rong Zheng thought of Xiao Xiao who disappeared from the garden. Apparently Qin Ge and Bai Wan behind him also thought about it, and they all looked bad.

How many such inconspicuous doors are there in the Qin family ne?

The door was the same color as the wall and had no door frame. You wouldn't know it was a door unless you looked closely.

As for this door, there is no so-called door lock at all, only a simple inner door bolt. Therefore, as long as people inside Qin house, including they players, know the existence of this door, they can go to the back garden from the hidden back door of the Qin family at any time.

The entrance to the basement is hidden among the flowers next to the small door. Pull up the door bolt on the ground and open the door. There is a stone staircase leading to the basement.

"The things placed here are things that are not used on weekdays, so they are rarely opened." Xiao Zhang, the manservant, said, "The last time I opened the door was a week ago, in order to get artificial flowers and tablecloth lace specially used for today's banquet." With that said, he came to the basement, turned around and turned on the light.

The dark basement was immediately illuminated by lights, eliciting a slightly frightened exclamation from Bai Wan.

Rong Zheng said: "I think, at least the last time it was opened, was definitely not a week ago."

When Xiao Zhang turned on the light, he was facing the wall. He only saw the ugly faces of Second Young Master Qin, Second Young Master Qin said directly: "This has nothing to do with me."

Xiao Zhang turned his head astonished, and was slightly surprised when he saw the scene in the basement. The basement was the same as before, a wide space filled with various unused furniture, ornaments and sundries in an orderly manner. The only difference is that there are many puppets hanging on the walls.

In the eyes of the player, it is a puppet, but in the eyes of Xiao Zhang and Second Young Master Qin, it is the corpse of a guest who came to Qin's house.

The players who disappeared without a trace are all here.

Even though they were just a few lifelike puppets, they were all hung on the wall now, staring in the direction of the door with their eyes wide open. This scene still scared Bai Wan to tremble all over. She turned around and grabbed Qin Ge's arm tightly and didn't dare to look again.

On the contrary, Rong Zheng stepped forward with interest, observed the marks on the puppets, and judged their due 'cause of death'.

"What's going on?" Second Young Master Qin asked the manservant.

The manservant waved his hands quickly: "I don't know, I really don't know. The key to the basement door has been kept with the butler. I just got it from the butler, so I really don't know this."

"Unfortunately, it is difficult to determine the time of death." Rong Zheng said regretfully after observing the cause of death.

"Aren't you scared ma?" Bai Wan couldn't help it, turned around and said angrily.

Rong Zheng pointed at the puppet: "Why are you afraid?"

This is obviously just a puppet.

Bai Wan: "That's scary too!"

Rong Zheng smiled.

Bai Wan: "You... are really a strange person. What was your previous occupation a?"

Rong Zheng asked, "Before you ask me, why don't you introduce yourself ma?"

"Okay." Bai Wan nodded, "Bai Wan, I was an accountant before coming here and worked in a foreign company." As she said that, she proudly brushed the hair around her ears with her hand. A woman like her with a good family background, a high degree of education, and a stable job. Unfortunately, it is difficult for very capable woman to find a husband, so she remains single until now.

Without him, if incompetent she would look down .

"I've finished my introduction, what about you, where do you go to work?" Bai Wan asked.

Rong Zheng raised his head: "Go to work? If you really mean going to work, I'm probably... unemployed ba."

Bai Wan's eyes widened, she didn't believe it.

There is not a word of truth in this man's mouth.

"Whatever job doesn't matters now. When we get here, we can't do anything." Qin Ge said.

This is true. The only way for these people who traveled through the parallel world to survive is to go through the dungeon, and there is nothing else.

Hearing Qin Ge's question, Bai Wan was a little worried about her future life, so she asked Qin Ge about the parallel world. Qin Ge could naturally answer these questions that had nothing to do with the game copy. He looked at the two NPCs weren't in the mood to pay attention here, so he explained to Bai Wan in a low voice. The more he spoke, the uglier Bai Wan's face became.

She could easily live a good life in the original world, and she had no intention of making a lot of money by being frightened in the dungeon.

Maybe it's because people originaly didn't have a good life so they like it here.

Thinking of this, Bai Wan became curious about Qin Ge's past and asked, "Brother Qin, what did you do before a?"

Qin Ge said sheepishly: "I moved bricks." So he likes life in the parallel world very much and won't feel sorry about buying a piece of clothing that costs 100 yuan.

The smile on Bai Wan's lips stiffened.

Next to him, Rong Zheng was not interested in asking about the lifestyle in the parallel world, because he found something here that was more worthy of his attention.

Behind the puppets, there is a small piece of bone hanging, as well as numbers.

The author has something to say:

Bai Leshui: (A little bored, want to have fun, stand up) Hihihihi~~

Butler Li: (Comes over and pushes Bai Leshui back to his seat) Young Lady, please stay here.

Bai Leshui: (Seeing that Butler Li was not paying attention to him, he stood up and whispered) Hihihi~

Cook: (Pressing Bai Leshui back to his seat) Young Lady, the yard has been uneasy these past two days, please have a good rest ba.

Bai Leshui: (Seeing that both of them were not there, he stood up again, very quietly) Hihi~

Bodyguard: (Pressing Bai Leshui back with only one finger) Young Lady, please rest.

Bai Leshui:...

No more hihi, he became autistic.
