Chapter 345 Scream

The remaining two beads were most likely picked up by Cheng Qian.

But what should she do? Robbery or body search? ...No matter which one, it may be the last straw that breaks the opponent's back.

Zhu Shu didn't want to do that.

Because people who are cornered will go crazy.

Su Man, Yu Yaqing, and Hu Ya came down from upstairs, all looking ugly.

Zhu Shu stepped forward and asked them: "Have you seen where Blue Beard went? Where he went is probably the locked room, and the clues to clear the level may be in there!"

Hu Ya said: "His speed was too fast. When we ran to the third floor, we could no longer see him and only heard the sound of the door closing!"

Hu Ya spoke very quickly, as if she couldn't wait to release the suppressed and tense emotions on the third floor just now, and repeatedly emphasized: "He is too fast! He can collapse six or seven stairs in one step! Like a monster!... No, No, he’s a monster!”

Zhu Shu couldn't help but ask: "Are there no drag marks on the ground? Or are there any footprints or scratches?"

Hu Ya shook her head with a pale face.

Su Man took over and explained: "The carpet on the third floor is very old, and there are marks in front of each door. There is no way to tell them apart."

After she finished speaking, she paused and looked at Bai Youwei: "I counted the rooms, and there were 128, just like on the second floor. I checked every room, and the Duke and Zhao Lanfen were not found."

Bai Youwei frowned, sitting in the wheelchair and stroking the stuffed rabbit, thinking.

Her legs and feet were inconvenient and she couldn't run up and down as smoothly as them. But since Su Man and Hu Ya said so, searching again probably wouldn't make any difference.

Unless they can come up with new ideas.

Bai Youwei raised her head and looked at the huge crystal chandelier above the hall. Following this gorgeous lighting, she could see the spiral staircase reaching the top floor and connecting to the handrail on the third floor.

"The inspector said that there are four floors in this manor plus the basement. Since you all saw the Duke go to the third floor, and the third floor is the highest floor, then the locked room must be on the third floor."

She murmured thoughtfully: "...Is there a hidden grid?"

"If there is a hidden compartment, I'm afraid I have to wait until tomorrow to find it." Yu Yaqing, who had been silent all the time, said in a low voice, "The light on the third floor is too dark, so it is difficult to find any clues."

The manor is sunny during the day, but eerie at night, with lights decreasing layer by layer.

The lobby on the first floor was brightly lit, but the second floor became much dimmer. The third floor was like a dark alley, with old light bulbs emitting a faint light.

Cheng Qian almost cried after hearing Yu Yaqing's words, "We...are we going to spend the night in a place like this? Can we survive tonight..."

"There is no need to worry about this." Bai Youwei said calmly, "It seems that the Duke can only kill one person every day. Just when you attacked him like that, he just stood there and fought back. His other hand was always holding Zhao Lanfen. He didn't take the initiative until he left. To hurt you, the rules of the game must have restricted him so that he can only attack one bride at a time."

Zhu Shu blew half of his face. In a rage, the most ferocious attack he made was just to pick up the broken sword next to him and throw it at him.

He did not pursue Zhu Shu fiercely, nor did he entangle with Su Man and Yu Yaqing. He left quickly.

...why so fast?

Is it due to the speed itself, or are there other reasons?

"He doesn't want anyone to discover his secret..." Bai Youwei murmured thoughtfully, "Will the secret be the same as in the fairy tale?"

"Ahhhhh!!!"

A scream suddenly came, interrupting her thoughts.

Everyone was shocked.

The screams came one after another, shrill and terrifying!

They turned around and looked around, but they couldn't tell where the sound was coming from.

"It's Zhao Lanfen..." Cheng Qian shivered and shrank behind Yu Yaqing, "She...isn't she dead..."
