Jiang Jingzhe followed Cui Miaomiao's line of sight.
Right next to the small desk in the bedroom, a refined middle-aged man indeed appeared, with his legs crossed, looking at them with great interest.
It is obvious that there is an extra person in the room, and it will make people subconsciously raise their vigilance, but Jiang Jingzhe has not realized this until Cui Miaomiao pointed it out.
It was as if there was some kind of aura in the man that people would ignore.
Jiang Jingzhe met his eyes, and was surprised to find that he was not flustered, thinking that the other party was harmless from the bottom of his heart.
This is not a normal situation... She began to suspect that she was being manipulated.
The man finally laughed.
He lightly adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, and said with a smile, "Welcome, guests from afar."
No one said a word.
The man—or the owner of the old house, didn't care about their impoliteness, he comforted him: "Don't worry about what I will do to you, I have no interest in torturing humans."
...With this sentence, it looks even more suspicious!
"So you're not human?" Jiang Jingzhe asked.
This is an obvious thing, normal human beings would never live in such a haunted house for so long.
The homeowner seemed to be hesitant: "Well...half and half?"
Xie Xinghui couldn't hold back and complained in a low voice: "How can there be half and half! It's not a mixed race..."
Cui Miaomiao suddenly got it, and she looked at the owner in surprise, and couldn't help thinking about a romantic love story about a ghost.
Jiang Jingzhe asked again: "Do you know how we can get out of here?"
She paused, and added: "Alive, the kind that leaves with a 100% human attitude."
The homeowner couldn't help laughing: "Is 80% okay?"
"No, at least ninety-nine percent." Jiang Jingzhe bargained habitually.
"Eighty-five percent."
"..." She recovered and realized something was wrong.
Jiang Jingzhe no longer chatted awkwardly with him, with "You are sick" written all over his face.
Why is this ghost playing cards so unreasonably?
The owner coughed dryly and said, "You should have something to give to me, right?"
Jiang Jingzhe was not surprised that he knew.
Perhaps the owner has set up eyeliners throughout the mansion, and their conversations have been monitored throughout.
Jiang Jingzhe originally wanted to see if he could exchange the doll for more specific information...but obviously the owner was not fooled.
She could only hand him the bucket she had been carrying.
Ji Chen: "? Wait!"
He wished he could dig out another old house on the spot. Although they have done things such as killing the owner's wife and children before, this does not mean that they can be put on the bright side!
"No matter how you say it, you have to fish out the doll first!" Ji Chen did not hold back his complaints.
It was already roughly equivalent to a corpse, but now it is still soaked in a bucket. This is simply putting the owner's face on the ground and stepping on it!
If he is not angry, then there is a ghost!
The homeowner took the bucket calmly, put it on the ground mercilessly, and said, "Well done, kids."
It doesn't look like he's really angry.
Ji Chen thought numbly: There are indeed ghosts here, nothing wrong with it, eh.
"Is your family reunited now?"
The homeowner thought for a while and nodded: "Well, we are reunited."
In the next second, everyone heard the system beep.
[Congratulations to all the guests who have completed the hidden mission "Family Reunion" and received random reward items. ]
[Da da da da da... ding! Congratulations to the draw of the physical prop "Love Phone", which is distributed to all guests, and the props can be used 3 times. Rewards will be given out after this shoot ends. ]
This time the reward was actually a mobile phone!
Jiang Jingzhe rang the mobile phone that she got from the beautiful ghost before, thoughtfully.
In any case, with a mobile phone, they have a way to communicate with each other, which is also a benefit.
But the most important question right now is...
Obviously all the romance tasks have been completed, why hasn't the system sent them away?
Jiang Jingzhe and the owner of the house looked at each other, and the scene was once very awkward.
The owner of the house first said: "You probably didn't have a good rest at night, now go back and have a good sleep, and leave here at noon."
It sounded like words to drive people away, but it sounded extremely moving at this moment—they wished to be driven out of this haunted house.
Jiang Jingzhe: "I feel that I am very energetic, and I can start now."
The owner smiled: "If you can't sleep, you are always welcome to talk to me."
With the sound of 'click', the door of the master room also opened.
After finishing speaking, he turned sideways to look at his small desk, and stopped talking to them.
Of course, it is impossible for the guests to really fall asleep because of what this half-human and half-ghost guy said.
In other words, they originally planned to take a break while the ghosts were unable to move during the day... He urged them so much, but they didn't want to follow suit.
The system notification made them calm down at this time: [This filming will end at 12:00 noon. Thank you for your active cooperation. If the guests still miss something, please take this time to say goodbye to your new friends! ]
new friend?
Anyway, it's early morning now, and it's only a few hours before twelve o'clock at noon. Instead of letting your guard down because the time is approaching and being attacked in the end, it's better for everyone to work hard to hold on.
Cui Miaomiao was exhausted after a night of high-intensity activities with fear, but Xie Xinghui and Ji Chen, who had rested during the waiting process, were in good spirits.
Cui Miaomiao looked at Jiang Jingzhe sourly: "Why are you not tired? And there are no dark circles under your eyes..."
Jiang Jingzhe was stunned for a moment, touched the circles of his eyes subconsciously, and then turned his head to look at the wall that reflected his appearance.
Of course, it is impossible to see whether there are dark circles on the wall.
But she remembered something because of Cui Miaomiao's reminder.
She stroked her hair solemnly—clenching her hands into fists and opening them again, but there was no hair in her palms.
She doesn't lose her hair anymore!
Jiang Jingzhe suddenly recalled the DEBUFF she got during the first tracing activity.
The cooling time of this special ability is 24 hours, so she only used it once after coming here, and it took effect very quickly.
The DEBUFF on her body is a 'card bug'.
That is...the state the body is in will not change.
"What's wrong with you? Your expression is suddenly very deep." Cui Miaomiao asked suspiciously.
Jiang Jingzhe: "I suddenly felt that I could fight ghosts head-on."
Cui Miaomiao: (looks at the retarded eyes)
She was just about to go to the living room with them, when she suddenly remembered something: "Speaking of... where is Tang Sisi?"
Embarrassed.
When they went upstairs, they temporarily placed Tang Sisi in the room.
"I'll go and see her." Jiang Jingzhe said.
The few of them were really troubled by Tang Sisi.
After all, they are not from this world, and they will be sent away at noon, so what should this native do?
There is no shop in the front of the village, and even though I am filming romance dramas, I haven't seen anyone come to support me for so long...
More importantly, Tang Sisi is still unconscious.
Jiang Jingzhe walked lightly, and when she reached the door of Tang Sisi's room, she heard a rustling sound.
She was suspicious, but after opening the door, she saw no outsiders. Tang Sisi was still lying on the big bed in the middle.
…but there was a familiar scent in the air.
Jiang Jingzhe squatted down following the scent, stretched his hand under the bed, and touched a half-eaten bag of potato chips.
Good guy.
"I said... you're pretending to be asleep." Jiang Jingzhe squatted beside Tang Sisi and said expressionlessly.
Tang Sisi still closed her eyes tightly like a breathing corpse, her face was pale and bloodless.
Now there are only the two of them in this room, but no one answered, it seems that Jiang Jingzhe is singing a one-man show.
She hung her hands over Tang Sisi's head.
Tang Sisi's eyelashes trembled involuntarily.
Jiang Jingzhe bent her fingers and flicked Tang Sisi's forehead hard.
Tang Sisi: "..."
She couldn't pretend anymore, she opened her eyes and looked at Jiang Jingzhe speechlessly.
"What's the matter?" Tang Sisi was not embarrassed to be exposed, so she asked anxiously.
"I already know your identity." Jiang Jingzhe was so calm as if he was chatting with her.
Tang Sisi was not surprised by this.
She raised her eyebrows, showing a loose expression that was different from the gentle white lotus image in the past: "Huh?"
According to the law "There can be no question without an answer"...
"You are the daughter who ran away back then."
Although they had just met the owner of the house and the reunion task was automatically judged to be completed, it can be seen that they had passed the test by muddling through, but Jiang Jingzhe still felt that Tang Sisi had a sense of disobedience.
The big boss in Dan O Lun Po 1 also suspended animation at the beginning. Isn't this perfectly consistent with Tang Sisi who fainted at the beginning but was able to observe them closely throughout the whole process?
Otherwise, why did Tang Sisi pretend to be asleep when she was clearly awake? She deliberately avoided them, apparently dividing their positions in her heart.
But the guests knew that they were not from this world, but Tang Sisi didn't. It could only be that there is a deviation in my sense of identity due to other reasons.
Tang Sisi: "..."
She didn't know what to say for a while.
"It's not me, it's Yu Shu." She said dryly, "Otherwise, how do you think your mission was accomplished?"
Jiang Jingzhe went through it in his mind.
Their program group was able to choose such a remote private residence, it must be because someone offered to provide the place, at least with the consent of the owner. The person who really brought them here may be among the guests.
If Yu Shu was that person, he left voluntarily on the first night instead of being replaced by force... Then it's no wonder they didn't hear anything.
Wow, what she said makes sense.
But if Tang Sisi is not the so-called lost daughter, then who is she?
Yu Shuming obviously "escaped" out, so why did he come back on his own initiative?
"Wait, what mission did you just say?" Jiang Jingzhe raised her head abruptly.
The author has something to say:
The next chapter ends this dungeon! The next dungeon is going to be a relaxed campus dungeon hehe
