Regarding the butler's words, most people were just surprised by his directness, but not much fear. After all, this was not the first mission, and they were still fully aware of the dangers involved.
For example, the man in the raincoat looked at the man and asked in a low voice: "What about those who found the corpses? How did they die?"
The housekeeper did not shake his head this time, and there was a trace of fear in his empty eyes: "I don't know, the process of discovering the body was very strange, some... some did not look like human corpses."
"It doesn't look like a human corpse..." No one could imagine what the scene was like.
It could be seen that the butler was very taboo about such topics. Soon after, he returned to his business-like attitude and urged: "Okay, everyone, please sign."
After hearing what the housekeeper said before, everyone was resisting signing the declaration, but it was impossible not to sign. Obviously this was a necessary process for the task. The fat man was struggling when the old man on his right gently touched his arm, " Little brother, sign it quickly, you can't avoid it." The old man took a long breath and advised in the tone of someone who has been through it.
"I know, thank you." The fat man stopped worrying and quickly signed his name. He didn't understand the reason.
The old man also signed his name at this moment, and then the housekeeper came over and took the agreements one by one. He looked at each one carefully for a few seconds, as if he was worried that someone was playing tricks.
But just when the housekeeper read the old man's agreement and was about to put it away, Jiang Cheng suddenly stood up, rushed over, grabbed the housekeeper's wrist, "Wait a minute!"
He was so fast that no one could react. The face of the butler who was grabbed by the wrist immediately turned dark, and his eyes protruded outward and gradually became bloodshot. But even so, Jiang Cheng did not let go.
"What are you going to do?" the butler said carefully.
"There is something wrong with the old man's agreement. I hope he will fill it out again." Jiang Cheng grabbed the butler's hand, but looked at the old man with murderous intent in his eyes.
"I've seen it, there's no problem." The butler stared at Jiang Cheng's face with a cold tone.
"Your name is Wang Fugui?" Jiang Cheng asked the old man.
Huaiyi was stunned for a moment, then walked over the next second. He saw clearly that the three words Wang Fugui were written on the signature of the agreement on the wrist caught by Jiang Cheng.
"Damn it, old man, you're cheating!" Huai Yi pointed at the old man's nose and cursed, and was about to teach him a lesson, but a man and a woman from the old man's team quickly surrounded him.
The fat man looked at the old man in disbelief. He was not as angry as Jiang Cheng Huaiyi. He looked at the old man's obscure face and felt that he was hateful and pitiful.
Seeing that the matter could not end, in addition to the three people from Jiang Cheng, the three people from the other team were also staring at him coldly. The old man reluctantly asked for the agreement back, crossed out the three words Wang Fugui, and then filled in his name again. : Jiang Zhao.
From beginning to end, there was no explanation given to Fatty or Jiang Cheng.
"Sit back, it's too rude to fight here." The butler said in a warning tone.
"good."
Jiang Cheng did not continue to pester, and pulled Huaiyi to sit back.
But this time, the eyes of the two people looking at the old man were no longer cold. As Jiang Cheng approached Huai Yi and whispered something in his ear, Huai Yi's eyes narrowed slightly and the corners of his mouth turned up unconsciously.
The old man frowned slightly, then seemed to think of something, and his heart thumped.
When the other two people in Jiang Zhao's group handed over the agreement and the housekeeper walked to Huai Yi, Huai Yi spread the agreement generously on the table. Then in front of everyone, he crossed out the word "Huai Yi" and placed it on the table. Fill in the word "Jiang Zhao" again.
The two people brought by Jiang Zhao immediately exploded when they saw it, especially the tall young man with tiny spots on his face. They glared at Huai Yi: "You are looking for death!" The young man is Jiang Zhao's. apprentice.
After Huaiyi handed over the agreement, the next one was Jiang Cheng. Jiang Cheng seemed to be frightened by the young man's momentum, and asked with fear on his face: "Your Excellency... What is your surname?"
The young man stopped talking after hearing this. The three of them had handed over the agreement. Now they had no chips in their hands. If their names were also written on it, who knows what would happen.
Huaiyi was so excited when he saw the latter, he patted the table and asked, "I want to ask you a question. Please give me your surname. Either I write about you or this old thing. You choose one." They all lost face anyway.
"You..." The young man yelled fiercely, but he didn't dare to tell them his name. Just as he was about to say a few harsh words and sit down, a familiar voice suddenly sounded.
"Ouyang Huanbin." Jiang Zhao looked at the young man and said seriously: "Sit down, everyone, please don't hurt the harmony."
young people:"???"
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng smiled and looked at the young man whose face turned green. "So your name is Ouyang Huanbin." After saying that, under everyone's gaze, he crossed out his name on the signature spot and wrote it again. The word "Jiang Zhao" came up.
"But I still like the name Jiang Zhao." Jiang Cheng shook the agreement in his hand and handed it over.
The housekeeper didn't seem to be interested in these disputes. He took one look at Jiang Cheng's agreement and accepted it. He put it together with all the previous agreements and carefully packed it in a paper bag.
After doing all this, the housekeeper raised his head, looked at everyone, and announced: "From this moment on, everyone has successfully stayed here. I hope you can abide by the rules here."
"You can move around the manor as you like during the day, and you can leave the manor, but you need to be careful. I suggest you stay in this building at night and don't go anywhere."
"One more thing, if you need to sleep late at night, please go back to your own room, one room per person." At this point, the housekeeper paused and lowered his voice: "You don't need to worry about whether the room is enough. The room is very sufficient. What you have to do is choose carefully.”
On the way here, Jiang Cheng had observed this building. Judging from the outside windows, the rooms here were sufficient, more than enough for nine of them.
"Choose carefully..." Someone repeated in a low voice, "What do you mean?"
The butler shook his head slightly and his expression became strange. He didn't know whether it was because he didn't know, or because he knew some inside information but was unwilling to answer.
In short, he didn’t say another word, and left the building with everyone’s agreement. His pace seemed very steady and slow, but his speed was extremely fast. Jiang Cheng followed him for a while, trying to see which way he was taking. The road, where did it go in the end, but as soon as the housekeeper walked out of the door, he turned around and disappeared. After Jiang Cheng and the others chased him out, it was empty outside, and there was no sign of anyone.
"Is this person a human or a ghost?" the fat girl asked.
Jiang Cheng looked involuntarily towards the garden and said in a voice that only he could hear: "I don't know now, I'll find out in the evening."
