Players Please Get In the Car

  Chapter 360 The confusing truth

   "It's in the wardrobe of He Pu's bedroom." Xu Huo said.

   "How did you know?" Frye looked at him in surprise, "Didn't you say you found nothing when you went up yesterday?"

   "He Pu came too fast. I really didn't have time. I discovered this last night, and I was injured because of it." Xu Huo pointed to his body.

   "Have you fought He Pu?" You Qiwen was stunned.

   "Of course not, facing He Pu head-on, do you think I can escape unscathed?" Xu Huo asked back.

  You Qiwen lowered his expression, "Have you completed the first mission?"

  Xu Huo nodded, and said under the gaze of a group of players with different faces: "I can't tell you how I know this, but the news is true."

   "But completing the first task does not clear the level. The reason why I share this information is to know the truth about the disappearance of the guest."

   "Isn't it the people in the castle who killed people?" Wei Landeng frowned, "At most, the dungeon boss used game loopholes to deal with players. Isn't that right?"

   "If it's right, he's not here anymore." Liu Zhengping scratched his hair irritably, "I thought it was just a simple D-level dungeon, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult."

   "It's not just a question of high difficulty." Frye said in a deep voice, "The dungeon boss has no intention of letting the player leave alive."

   "There is no need to be so desperate." Chen Nan couldn't help but said, "Don't we already know the whereabouts of the corpse?"

   "It's one thing to know. With He Pu here, we don't even have the chance to get close to the bedroom. Once we do it, there is no room for maneuver." You Qiwen said: "What's worse, tonight is a music appreciation party."

Like Xu Huo, You Qiwen also thought that if He Pu didn't plan to let any players go, he would definitely do it tonight, and the dungeon won't end until 12 o'clock tomorrow night, and players won't even have a chance to procrastinate .

   "The music appreciation meeting is our last chance." Xu Huo said: "The music room and He Pu's bedroom are next to each other. There are seven of us. It is not difficult to get a certain time. The key is the truth about the disappearance of the guests."

   "Let's summarize the information we have found," Wei Landeng said, "Maybe we can find some clues."

"Let me first say that I found that all the servants in the castle came to work here about five years ago, except for Mr. Dong, the housekeeper. Ho Pu was not satisfied with the chef's craftsmanship. The chef would complain to the servants, saying He himself went to ask the chef who was fired before, but He Pu still didn't like the dishes he learned, and instead relied on Hu Shan."

   "He Pu's food, clothing, housing and transportation are almost all managed by Hu Shan alone. From this point of view, I think the two of them are in the same camp. At least some players were killed by Hu Shan."

"It was a strange time five years ago." Frye continued, "Not only did the servants change a batch five years ago, but the relationship between Ho Pu and Mr. Dong also seemed to have dropped to a freezing point five years ago. The photo shows that the two used to be close, but judging from the way they get along these days, that’s not the case.”

  The relationship between He Pu and Mr. Dong is not good, all the players can see this, but the strange thing is that the relationship between the two is obviously not good, but He Pu still hires Mr. Dong. If he is dissatisfied with Mr. Dong, he can drive him away.

"At first, I thought that He Pu was under the control of Mr. Dong," You Qiwen said, "Now I feel that the conflict between the two of us should not have intensified to that extent, so although Mr. Dong is merciful to us, if we fight He Pu If we get up, he will definitely intervene, and what we have to face are three powerful enemies."

   "It's okay for a person's living habits to change due to illness, but it's strange that even the taste has changed." Chen Tudao: "Do you think it's because of the mutton problem?"

  The expressions of Liu Zhengping and Wei Landeng suddenly changed, and the former said: "You might as well say that He Pu has a split personality."

"It's not impossible." Chen Tu said sternly: "If you don't eat people in the past, if you start eating people for some reason, it is entirely possible that your temperament will change drastically. After all, people who eat people can no longer use the thinking of normal people. Looking at it, it’s not surprising that they would do anything.”

   "That makes sense." Wei Landeng said, "He Pu and Mr. Dong may have fallen out because of this incident."

   "Try this answer." Frye said to Xu Huo.

  Xu Huo opened the game panel to submit the task, and answered the truth according to the derivation of others.

   "Not passed." He said two minutes later.

   The players felt a little depressed for a while, and Frye said again: "It seems that we can only work on Ho Pu himself. We also have an advantage now, that is, we have not completed the first mission."

   "Think about it, who in the castle will know the truth about the guest's disappearance? It's He Pu, Mr. Dong and the others. If we confront him after the first mission is completed, He Pu will definitely kill him directly."

   "But if we don't complete the first task, we may learn the truth from He Pu." You Qiwen answered, "Because even if we tell us the truth, we will not be able to pass the level."

   Liu Zhengping slapped his thigh and asked Xu Huo, "You didn't let He Pu find out, did you?"

  Xu Huo twitched his lips, "That's not true."

  What are they talking about in their dreams? Their words and deeds are all under the control of He Pu. He Pu can rescue Hu Shan who was trapped by Mr. Dong on the third floor. The possibility of not knowing that Yu Shuai touched the body is very slim.

  Take a step back and say that even if he really doesn't know, why should he confront the player again?

  Maybe others just want to listen to music to the sheep before slaughtering the sheep, so as to achieve the psychological hint of more delicious meat.

  Other players don’t know whether they believe it or not, but Liu Zhengping seems to believe it. He breathed a sigh of relief, “Thank God.”

   Wei Landeng hesitated to speak, but did not speak after glancing at Frye.

No matter what the players thought, the time came to the evening very quickly. The servants brought them new dresses and told the players that dinner could be eaten in their own rooms, because He Pu was going to prepare for the appreciation meeting and had no time to come down to eat with them .

  At eight o'clock in the evening, the servants knocked on the players' doors one by one and invited them to the third floor.

  Outside the door of the music room, Mr. Dong and Hu Shan stood on the left and the right. Hu Shan handed everyone a wet handkerchief and asked them to wipe their hands before entering.

   "A chair in the music room can sell for sky-high prices, you better not get dirty."

  The music room is a small concert hall with 20 seats. There is a stage in front of it, and all the equipment is placed on it, even the two pairs of large speakers that have been seen in Ho Pu's room.

  There are no musicians on the stage, but two rows of chairs are placed. On the chairs are common musical instruments, including violins, drums and fifes, etc., and there is a piano next to them.

  Ho Pu was standing on the edge of the stage with his baton in hand. He turned around when he heard the voice, and gracefully asked them to take their seats.
