Standing in front of Hisoka, soaked to the skin, he was clearly Maple Sugar.
Not seen for many days, Maple Sugar's stubble has sprouted, looking a lot worse.
After confirming each other's identity, Maple Sugar and Taoist Master asked in unison, "Pineapple is not with you (we)?"
Although it was good news to meet Maple Sugar, the joy that was in Lan's heart was quickly diluted by the huge anxiety after learning that Pineapple was missing, and that she was seriously injured and missing.
Behind Maple Sugar were two brothers, February and March. They didn't know them at all, but seeing that Maple Sugar seemed to have met an acquaintance, they started laughing together.
The Taoist priest didn't explain the current situation, so he pulled Fengsuang to rush out. Fengsuang understood what the Taoist was doing and followed him without refusing.
"Everyone," Hisoka's figure stopped at the door, "Hisoka has warned everyone that there will be dangers outside the White Castle at night, right?"
The fool stood up in front of everyone, raised his fists and threatened, "Are you going to get out of the way?"
"Mr. Xu, don't be impulsive," Hisoka pursed his lips and smiled, "Hisoka is just reminding him. After all, Hisoka doesn't want to see his distinguished guest die."
Mr. Xu?
The fool’s surname is Xu?
Lan secretly glanced at Fool. He didn't seem to notice that Hisoka's title had changed, and he still looked angry.
After Hisoka finished, he smiled mysteriously and got out of the way.
It was raining heavily outside the door.
As soon as they came out, everyone rushed towards the back of the castle.
"Have you seen pineapples since you came in?" Maple Sugar ran beside the Taoist priest and asked.
"No Ying" The Taoist priest frowned.
"We always thought you two were together," the fool ran behind them, "Did Pineapple really come in?"
No one can answer this question.
March took two quick steps, "Where are we going?"
The Taoist priest glanced at him without any doubt, "Our companion is missing."
"Missing?" Maple Sugar glanced at everyone, "Yin is missing?"
The answer is self-evident.
Behind the castle is a deep forest. In the rainy night, there is no light. Several people stood in the open space and looked up at the second floor window.
That one is the bathroom window.
No one was seen.
"Baomu, does it smell?" The Taoist priest's hair was wet from the rain, and he turned around and asked with squinted eyes.
Baomu shook his head, "I can't smell it anymore. I can't smell it here."
Disappeared?
Lan suddenly remembered something, "When Uncle Luo disappeared, why were there traces in the Lily of the Valley bush?"
The Taoist priest agreed, "Go and have a look."
Not only the lily of the valley, but other flowers in the garden were ravaged by the successive heavy rains. The light blue lily of the valley staggered here and there, with petals all over the ground.
The soil was turned out and it was a mess, and there were no traces of footprints anywhere.
"Where are we going to find Sister Yin?" Baomu lowered his arms dejectedly.
Jasmine was squatting on the ground to check, but she stood up and asked, "Can't you smell Qin Yin's scent?"
Baomu wiped his face, "I haven't smelled her since we left the castle."
"Then when my father disappeared, have you smelled my father's scent?" Luo Jiuye asked.
"In the castle, there is the smell of Director Luo," Baomu pointed to the lily of the valley on the ground, "But outside... the smell of the newly bloomed lily of the valley is too strong. Covered by the fragrance of flowers, I can't smell anything. "
The clue is broken again.
The rain gradually became heavier, and the few of them had no choice but to return to the castle to find another way.
The entrance was dark, and the direction of the restaurant was slightly lit. When the fool closed the door with a bang, the door of the restaurant also slid open with a creak.
Hisoka stood at the door of the restaurant against the light.
"Distinguished guests, please have a midnight snack," Hisoka bowed to everyone. "After the meal, Hisoka will introduce the guests to the rest room. I hope that the three of you can enjoy these four holidays."
"Four holidays?" February glanced at Maple Sugar.
Maple Sugar looked at the Taoist priest.
"There were nine of us when we came, ten holidays." The Taoist priest whispered.
Someone is missing every day.
There are one more holidays than people. At this level, the bet is that no one can survive until the end of the holiday.
Maple Sugar introduced the Taoist priest and February and March to each other, and then walked towards Hisoka who was standing at the door of the restaurant.
There were only three sets of cutlery placed on the long table in the restaurant.
Just as Lan was about to follow Maple Sugar into the restaurant, he was stopped by Hisoka.
"Sister Liao, it's time for you to rest."
Lan was stunned, looked back at his companion, and then turned his head back, "I want to eat too."
Hisoka's expression remained unchanged, and he showed no intention of retracting the hand that was holding her in front of her. He repeated, "It's time for you to rest."
Bai Su grabbed her hand from behind and shook his head.
So, these seven people stood pitifully at the door of the restaurant, watching Hisoka serve a table of late-night snacks for the Maple Sugar trio.
"Are you the only one in this castle?" Maple Sugar stared at Hisoka suspiciously.
"At this time, there is only Hisoka." Hisoka nodded slightly.
Maple Sugar looked at the people outside the door, and his voice suddenly dropped, "Aren't you afraid that we will kill you?"
Hisoka was silent for a few seconds and said slowly, "Hisoka entertains you all alone, but he does not entertain you alone."
"Hmph," Maple Sugar leaned back on the chair, "Where is your master hiding?"
"The master is delayed and cannot see you."
The light in Maple Sugar's eyes flashed, "Let me guess, in the garden?"
There was a clear look of stiffness on Hisoka's face.
But it only appeared for a second.
It should be very close!
Lan lay on the doorframe and thought about Hisoka's micro-expression.
Close, but not.
"Ha, I understand," Maple Sugar leaned on the table with one hand and leaned toward Hisoka aggressively, "In the forest next to the garden, right?"
Strangely, Hisoka actually relaxed after hearing this answer.
He smiled and raised his hand, "Everyone, after finishing your meal, please go upstairs and rest."
Sure enough, there were ten rooms on the second floor.
Yin's room disappeared, and three brand new rooms appeared.
It doesn't matter how Hisoka arranged it. As soon as he left, several people gathered in Lan's room.
There were more people, and the room became more crowded.
But there was no sound around her, and Lan always felt empty.
"Hisoka was completely a cover-up used by the things behind him," Maple Sugar quickly figured out the situation, "His master is the key. Judging from Hisoka's reaction, he is not in the forest."
"But it has something to do with the garden." Lan looked serious.
Jiru shook his head.
The clues again seemed to end there.
"You," the fool patted the maple sugar, "What's going on with you?"
"You and I were separated after entering the royal city," Maple Sugar lowered his head, "Fortunately, we met them... The three brothers were killed by the crazy April in the untouchable camp in the first month of the year, and the three of us entered the other place. I was trapped in the underground corridor of the tower. After thinking for a long time, I finally found the answer to the mystery, and then I saw the steps of the other tower..."
