[The performance of the script "Rainy Night Villa" begins. 】
After the last system prompt sounded, the mountain villa that had been extremely silent just now suddenly became lively.
In addition to the faint sound of thunderstorm outside, other noisy sounds gradually sounded.
As soon as Xu Shuo turned his head to look, he saw a sturdy old man wearing a well-dressed black suit, a white bow on his collar, and gold-rimmed glasses walking in.
This man is dressed like a traditional butler.
Xu Shuo looked at it without leaving any trace, and then he heard the other party say: "Sir, I plan to invite the new guests to have dinner together later. You should start preparing now."
"Okay." Xu Shuo nodded.
The butler seemed to have only come to say this to start the chef's plot, and left after leaving the menu.
Xu Shuo picked up the menu and looked at it. At this time, the system suddenly popped up a thoughtful prompt:
[Please complete the main task one at this time: poison the owner of the villa, Mr. Guo. 】
Looking at the huge arrow instructions and the detailed poisoning method in the mission explanation, Xu Shuo believed that this was a novice tutorial script.
He looked around, then reached out and took out the poison from his apron. Following the system's instructions, he expressionlessly smeared the poison into a bowl in the disinfection cabinet.
Xu Shuo started quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly. After finishing all this, he quickly put the bowl back to its place.
Then he rolled up a two-centimeter-sized poison bag and stuffed it into the sink of the sink, then turned on the faucet and washed his hands, and flushed the criminal evidence into the sewer.
After preparing the necessary killing techniques according to the script, Xu Shuo opened the freezer, took out the dishes and started cooking dinner.
To be honest, he still can't understand it.
By killing people in this way, does the murderer think he was exposed quickly enough?
Xu Shuo felt that his second task was very difficult.
And just as he finished washing his hands, a voice suddenly came from behind him: "Master Zhang, the housekeeper asked me to help."
Xu Shuo suddenly turned around and saw a young man standing at the door of the kitchen, also wearing chef's clothes and looking shy and embarrassed.
There are two live-in chefs in the manor. One is Xu Shuo, who specializes in preparing meals for the owner's family, and the other is an apprentice who cooks for the servants in the manor.
Both of them came here to work at the same time, but Xu Shuo's cooking was obviously better than his.
"Trouble." After looking at the young man, Xu Shuo nodded and said.
…
An hour later, the traditional housekeeper came over again to check on the situation.
At this time, Chef Xu and the unknown little chef who came to help had already prepared several dishes one after another. Several maids from the villa walked in, nodded to them, then opened the disinfection cupboard and started setting out the tableware. .
When Xu Shuo collected the dishes and turned to put them on the plates, he glanced at the cupboard inadvertently. A maid took out the special bowl as usual.
He remembered the girl's appearance.
European restaurant outside.
After being notified one by one by the manor's housekeeper, several of the invited players sat awkwardly at the round table and watched the beautiful ladies in maid outfits place dishes one after another.
The main seat is still vacant, and the owner of the villa may have to wait until the end to appear.
In addition to the main seat, another seat next to it was also empty. Several players did not think much about it for the time being, thinking that this was the seat of the player who was cooking in the kitchen.
After all, these positions are just right according to the number of players.
"Wow, that chef really knows how to cook." At this time, the photographer turned sideways, tilted his head and complained softly to Qin Xiaohe who was sitting next to him.
"Yeah, luckily he can." Tan Xiaohe smiled.
The girl's smile was a bit narrow. When the photographer saw this and thought of something, he smiled sheepishly.
After all, in the previous self-introduction, everyone knew that this man who had obtained the identity of a photographer actually did not know how to take pictures at all.
"I hope that old player can really lead us over, otherwise I don't even know how to play this." The photographer suddenly sighed and said with some melancholy.
The occultist Zhan Qian he was referring to was sitting opposite a few people, on the right hand side of the main seat.
Next to her, another boy, Yang Ming, sat, followed by Tan Xiaohe, the photographer, the painter, and another empty seat to the left of the main seat.
Except for Zhan Qian, who was guided by the housekeeper to sit there, everyone else sat at their own discretion.
This round table is very large, and the distance between several people is also very large. If you want to whisper, you have to move closer.
Yang Ming saw that the photographer was whispering to "his girlfriend". He was sitting there bored, so he couldn't help but leaned over and said in a low voice: "I guess the owner of this manor treats that person... very unusually." .”
He secretly pointed at Zhan Qian sitting next to him.
This occultist lady was wearing a long black dress and exquisite makeup. She had an arrogant temperament even as she sat there quietly, like a distinguished guest, which was incompatible with their awkwardness.
"After all, we are the only ones who broke in." Tan Xiaohe said with wide eyes and a serious look on his face.
Yang Ming: "..."
Photographer: "..."
It doesn't have to be so straightforward.
But in the previous self-introduction, it seems that this is indeed the case.
They were the only ones who came together to stay overnight after getting lost.
At this time, after all the dishes were served, the orderly maids left one after another, and the players who were whispering also became quiet when they saw this.
The butler who had disappeared just now appeared again. He bowed to them in a gentlemanly manner and apologized: "Sir, he was busy just now and kept everyone waiting for a long time."
Several players smiled politely and said nothing.
Anyone could tell that this was a show by the host.
At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a gray suit and smiling richly walked down the stairs. His aura was very gentle, making people relax at the first sight.
He should be an easy landlord to get along with.
Everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief. They were afraid that the owner of the manor would embarrass them, the outsiders staying overnight, and as novice players with the script in hand, they had no idea how to handle the situation.
Even the occultist Zhan Qian relaxed a little when seeing the enthusiastic look of the owner of the villa.
Mr. Guo sat on the main seat opened by the butler. He smiled at Zhan Qian and said, "Miss Zhan, thank you for accepting my invitation. You must know that I have been troubled by this matter for a long time."
Zhan Qian raised a cold yet polite smile and nodded reservedly: "Mr. Guo, you're welcome."
"It's been a long time since I've had so many guests come to my villa. It's rare to have a bit of fun, so I invite you all to have dinner together. I hope you won't dislike it." Then, Mr. Guo smiled at several other people.
His attitude is very polite and gentle, and he looks like a polite gentleman.
Hearing this, several other people also expressed their gratitude to him for taking him in. Although they couldn't play the game, they could still say some polite words.
After saying this, dinner was about to start, but at this moment, Mr. Guo, who was smiling all the time, suddenly frowned.
He quickly put down his chopsticks, pointed to the empty space on his left and said dissatisfiedly: "Butler, didn't I say that no one can be absent from today's dinner, what about others?!"
"This..." The old housekeeper bowed and said awkwardly: "The young master refuses to come down to eat."
Master?
As their words fell, the eyes of several players changed slightly.
Doesn’t this position belong to the player who is the chef?
Judging from the situation, there seems to be another important character in the villa, the young master who is having trouble with Mr. Guo?
…
The kitchen at this time.
The little chef who came to help finished the meal and left. Xu Shuo took the opportunity to open a small stove for himself. While eating the meal, he leaned against the door frame and paid attention to the situation outside.
As a chef, he doesn't have to eat at the table even as a player. The script is a killer and the positioning of each character is clearly arranged.
He is now a murderer who just sits back and waits for the crime scene to take shape.
