Chapter 378 Sentiment

 Xu Huo quickly finished his share, and when he took the second plate, he asked: "The castle has been searched all over, have you found Mr. He's body?"

Mr. Dong is the dungeon boss and has absolute control over the castle. He can even control the building to devour players. Fake Hope should not be able to hide Hope's body.

"Maybe Mr. He's body is not in the hands of fake He Pu."

Mr. Dong remained unfazed, "Mr. Dong is just a passer-by here. You don't have to worry about finding him again after he leaves."

After hearing this, Xu Huo had a feeling that this was indeed the case. Mr. Dong did not value Zhen Hepu's death and his body as much as normal people.

"Will this castle continue to be used as a dungeon venue?" he asked again.

"No." Mr. Dong said: "If the wanted criminal is caught, no more people will die in the castle."

"You inherited this castle?"

"I'm just the housekeeper."

"Then what will happen to this castle in the future?"

"Waiting for the heir."

"If this castle is auctioned, can I buy it?"

"Can."

The question only received a brief answer, but Xu Huo paused and then asked: "Did Mr. He leave a will?"

"Yes." Mr. Dong replied.

This answer is not too surprising. He Pu can collect so many props, so he should not be easily killed by a music player. He is a person full of secrets, and it is not surprising that he has arrangements for the people and things around him.

Since there is a will, the castle will not be auctioned.

Having finished the second plate of fried rice, Xu Huo took out a lighter and lit a cigarette he brought from District 014, and asked casually: "Does Mr. He have any relatives in District 011?"

"I don't know." Mr. Dong took away the dinner plate and carefully wiped the already clean tabletop with a towel.

The huge castle, the warm yellow lights, and a mute butler busily shuttled around.

Xu Huo looked in the restaurant for a while and then went to the second floor. I don't know if it was Mr. Dong's bad taste, but it was still the same room he stayed in the first night, but everything in the room had been changed.

"What is the characteristic you are using?" Xu Huo put his hand on the vase with flowers, "It can make objects go back in time."

"Static retrospective." Mr. Dong said as he was arranging his new bath towel.

"Can't work on living things?"

"cannot."

"Can't you restore the original form of the object?"

"No, we can only keep the appearance." Mr. Dong said a few more words and added: "Mr. Xu, please rest early."

Xu Huo nodded.

Before dawn the next day, he went to the third floor. The room where the fake Hope lived and the music room next to it had been remodeled. It was obvious that Mr. Dong disliked him very much, and none of the original things and decorations were left.

The study was still a study, so he walked in and continued to read the notes left by Hope.

Mr. Dong brought him breakfast and then left silently. Xu Huo read his notes for a while and then looked up out of the window and found that Mr. Dong had gone to the garden maze.

The garden maze at the back was set on fire by him, and the burned roses could not come back to life. Mr. Dong was cleaning up the remaining plants and planting new ones.

Xu Huo suddenly felt a little pain in his face, and the facial mask fell off automatically, but it was like scraping off a layer of skin on his face. After the pain, his face swelled up, and his cheeks felt like they were stuffed with buns. Drinking a self-healing agent didn't help either.

He had to go to the bathroom and apply cold water.

When it was almost noon, Mr. Dong came to bring him lunch. After seeing his face, he brought some ointment to reduce swelling. Although the swelling was not reduced, at least the pain was gone.

He stayed in the study that day. During this period, Ran Ying contacted him once, but he did not answer the call. Instead, he sent a text message to express that he was inconvenient right now.

Ran Ying invited him to dinner again.

Xu Huo pushed back this time, saying bluntly that he was short of money and it was shameful to ask girls to dig into their pockets.

Ran Ying sent a video message. She had just taken a bath. She was wrapped in a short and narrow bathrobe and was wiping her hair. She said, "If you are short of money, may I introduce you to a job?"

"You're not joining the law enforcement department, are you?"

"Although your player level is not high, it's no problem to be a back-office worker. Our salary here is high. If you work here for only half a month, you can afford to treat me to dinner."

The last sentence had a mocking tone. Xu Huo did not answer the question directly, but replied "I have something."

He's more interested in gaming government bases than law enforcement.

But don't be in a hurry.

Compared with breakfast and lunch, dinner is much richer. Mr. Dong also said: "The new chef has started to work."

"Is the inheritance matter settled so quickly?" Xu Huo paused.

Mr. Dong responded with silence.

Xu Huo spent the next few days at Rose Flower Castle, spending most of his time reading books and notes. Unfortunately, he didn't find any information about the perfect potion from He Pu's things, but he did know a lot about the game.

Knowledge.

In addition, he vaguely felt that Mr. Dong was a little strange, and his attitude towards him was not like a guest at all. It was a bit like treating Fake Hope before, no, he was more attentive and took care of his daily life in every detail.

As for the chef, at first he thought it was just a normal hire, but he changed people twice in the middle. In the end, the dishes cooked by this chef were more in line with his taste.

In the middle of the journey, he tested Mr. Dong's words, but found nothing.

But strangely enough, Rose Flower Castle is a very safe place, and he has no plans to leave for the time being.

"I'll leave in the afternoon." Xu Huo said to Mr. Dong during lunch.

"Do I need to prepare anything for you?" Mr. Dong poured him a glass of water and asked, "What would you like to eat for dinner?"

"Thank you, but no, I may not come again." Xu Huo said.

Mr. Dong didn't say anything else, and sent him out of the door politely. He still stood there and watched him go until he was far away.

Xu Huo withdrew his gaze, his new ordinary face was very calm. He took a ride out of the castle and went to the transition zone between the ancient city and the main city as agreed with Deng Xuan.

He got off the bus early, entered the shopping mall building he had pre-selected, and observed the square outside on the tenth floor.

After the agreed time, Deng Xuan appeared and walked into a beverage shop, sitting by the window and waiting.

Stores in the main city area have partition facilities. Even if it is a single seat, the fogged glass can be turned on, so outsiders cannot peek. Deng Xuan wants to wait for others, so sitting by the window is very conspicuous.

Xu Huo easily spotted two people staring at Deng Xuan among the moving crowd. The three of them had eye contact, so they must have known each other.

After Deng Xuan checked the time more frequently, he went downstairs and entered the beverage shop on a rented flying skateboard.

Deng Xuan seemed a little impatient and said to the communication device: "I don't think he can come..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly saw a man in a sports suit walking toward him with a skateboard under his arm.

It is normal for players to change their appearance. Just as Deng Xuan was about to open his mouth, the other party missed him and went to the front counter to buy a glass of juice.

Regarding the relevant settings of the prop "World in the Painting", this prop can put living people into the painting and has a survival period of thirty days; when the player enters the prop, it is regarded as one with the prop, and can leave the instance before the end of the instance (stuck)

Game bug, whether ticket copies and random copies will work is unknown), but the game panel cannot be operated; players can come out within thirty days (it is unknown whether the player's identity can be eliminated).
