The housekeeper accepted Huan Xiao's bookmark.
Seeing this, the girl in school uniform quickly handed hers over as well.
Under her frightened gaze, the housekeeper accepted the bookmark with a strange smile on his face:
"The bookmark is correct. You can leave here at seven o'clock in the afternoon."
The premise is that these two people can survive until it is time to leave.
The girl in school uniform was frightened and panicked by this smile, but the housekeeper of the manor has always had this strange look, and she has been used to it since he always behaves the same way.
So, although she was nervous, she was not too scared.
Huan Xiao turned on her phone, looked at the time on it, and asked the housekeeper:
"It's lunch time now, can we eat?"
"Of course, if you need to eat, please go to the restaurant. The food is ready." The housekeeper put away the Facebook sign and then asked the girl in school uniform:
"Are you planning to give the things you have to Madam? I can lead the way for you."
"No, I know where Mrs. Honghua lives."
The girl in school uniform stared at the housekeeper warily, and the servants in the manor couldn't believe it. Maybe they would take her to a strange place.
She has lived in Mrs. Honghua's manor for more than a month. Although she cannot completely remember the route in the manor, she has walked through most places and has no problem finding Mrs. Honghua's residence.
After hearing this, the housekeeper regained his cold expression, took a deep look at the girl in school uniform, and then left.
Seeing the housekeeper leave, the tight back of the school uniform girl relaxed.
She raised her feet and walked in one direction.
Huan Xiao immediately followed and asked from the side:
"Qingyun, don't you go after lunch? If you go to complete the task now, you might not be able to catch up with lunch."
"...No, the mission is urgent."
After the girl in school uniform finished speaking, she thought for a while, turned to Huan Xiao and said:
"When I complete my mission, I will meet with you. Just wait for me at my residence."
"Ah... maybe not. After lunch, I plan to go out and play for a while."
"Where are you going? It's so dangerous here. You might get into an accident and be in danger if you go out..."
The girl in school uniform paused, then shook her head, and continued to Huan Xiao:
"Forget it...it's up to you. If I can't find you when I come back, I'll wait for you in the small restaurant."
"Okay, you go ahead, I'm going to have lunch first!"
Huan Xiao waved to the girl in school uniform.
The girl in school uniform nodded, holding her bleeding heart, looking worried, turned around and left...
On the way back to the residence, the red flowers planted in the garden seemed to be attracted by Huanxiao, and they stretched their heads to look outside.
The red flowers seemed to be attracted by magnets, and the branches stretched straight into a straight line.
Watching them struggling to jump out of the soil, Huan Xiao was thoughtful.
Ever since she handed in the bookmark, there was something wrong with the red flowers.
Such anomalies cannot be arranged by Mrs. Honghua, because Mrs. Honghua knows that Huan Xiao is a 'ghost', and the red flowers in the garden cannot pose a threat to Huan Xiao.
So, is the abnormal state of these flowers due to the bookmark she gave to the butler?
Thinking about something in his mind, when he saw a red flower about to bite his trouser leg, Huanxiao used ghost energy to swat it back.
The red flower that was photographed back was not restless, shaking its branches and leaves, and trying to bite Huanxiao's trousers.
After taking pictures of the approaching flowers one by one, Huan Xiao spent some time before successfully walking into the small restaurant...
The midday sun was too hot and the sun was frighteningly poisonous.
The pebbles on the path were so hot in the sun that they could fry eggs.
It's cooler only when you're close to the forest.
Huanxiao went out after finishing lunch. She planned to go to the mountains to take a look while she still had time.
The stone house on the mountain was cleaned yesterday by the school girl. There might be a story today. Huanxiao went here just for the story.
But when she just left the manor, she caught a glimpse of a red figure appearing in the manor.
Taking a closer look, the figure turned out to be Mrs. Honghua!
The madam had never appeared during the day in the past three days. Huan Xiao thought that the other party could not come out during the day.
I saw the exquisite and gorgeous Mrs. Honghua standing in the manor, looking at each other from a distance across the red flowers from Huan Xiao.
The beautiful appearance changes somewhat in the sunlight, like the air on a plastic track that has been deformed by heat, twisting and squirming.
In the blink of an eye, the red ghost in front of him disappeared. The ghostly aura belonging to Mrs. Honghua also left.
Huan Xiao blinked in confusion, wondering why Mrs. Honghua suddenly appeared and left without saying a word.
What is the purpose of doing this?
Moreover, the school uniform girl should go find Mrs. Honghua. If Mrs. Honghua leaves, won’t the school uniform girl not be able to find this ghost?
Shaking her head, Huan Xiao threw away the purpose of Mrs. Honghua's sudden appearance.
Now it’s better to go hiking quickly. She is already looking forward to what kind of stories there will be on the mountain!
Using ghost energy to accelerate all the way, it took less than a second to reach the foot of the mountain.
The trees are shady, and the trees stand in disorder on the mountain, like soldiers sticking to their posts, with their backs straight.
As soon as we entered the mountains, the temperature in the air dropped instantly.
A huge green umbrella was held above the head, blocking out the scorching sunshine, leaving only the coolness.
The stone steps are covered with moss, as if covered with a layer of jade skin.
The irregular stone steps looked like they were paved by people, leading all the way to the end of the mountain.
Huan Xiao stepped on the stone steps, used ghost energy, and quickly arrived at the stone house according to the route in his memory.
However, today there is actually a thick spider web outside the stone house. It is the same as the scene Huanxiao saw on the first day. Even the position of the spider web in the memory has not changed...
Seeing this scene, Huan Xiao knew that she had come to the right place.
There is indeed something wrong with this stone house!
Yesterday, the girl in school uniform clearly cleaned up all the cobwebs. How could she re-weave so many cobwebs overnight?
The house was filled with ghostly energy, and such thick cobwebs were clearly the result of ghostly interference.
Moreover, through the gray spider webs, one could vaguely see something else inside the stone house.
On the originally empty desk, there was a small notebook.
Huan Xiao didn't hesitate and used ghost energy to get rid of all the spider webs outside.
In an instant, densely packed spiders crawled out of the stone house. The density was so dense that it made people's scalp numb.
Huan Xiao walked into the stone house in the direction the spider left.
At first glance, the interior of the house is simply decorated and free of clutter. There was only a small thumb-sized vase made of soil on the small cabinet beside the bed. There were withered plants in the vase.
Huan Xiao looked familiar, so he took a closer look and found that they were red wild flowers that had lost their color. It is also the only flower that can be found on this mountain.
It seems that the previous owner was a man who loved life.
After looking around the room and finding that there was really nothing to see, Huanxiao picked up the small book that she had noticed a long time ago and started reading...
