Chapter 11:

"You are the servants who come here to work." The hostess said in a tone without ups and downs: "I've been waiting for you for a long time. Come in."
After that, the hostess turned and turned back.
Everyone looked at each other and walked into the villa in twos and threes.
When everyone entered the villa, Li Hao (the gardener) who was walking at the end closed the door. Upon seeing this, Liu Kui (the driver) who was walking in front of him cursed in secret, but finally did not dare to open the door again.
After entering the villa, everyone lined up and stood neatly in front of the hostess.
The hostess stretched out her finger and nodded, and found that none of the eight people were missing. She nodded in satisfaction and said: "Yes, exactly eight people. For the next seven days, you have to work hard. There is one thing you need to remember. Except where you work, don’t walk around in the villa, especially the cellar.

"Before you, I hired a lot of servants, but they couldn't do even the most basic work, they even peddled and turned things around, messing up our family's life. So I fired them early According to the contract, I won’t pay a penny for people who are fired!
At this point, the hostess had a serious expression.
The hostess's words are very informative, but everyone is a game player. I knew that this villa must be strange. It would be a if there is no problem. Therefore, everyone was not frightened by the hostess's words, and only listened to her continuing to talk.
"The hallway on the first floor is the maid's room. You can allocate the room by yourself. Now you can go and put things in. Remember, don't squeeze a room for me to live in. There must be one person and one bed, otherwise people who don't know will think we are The family scolds the servant-yes, butler, you keep it."
After hearing this, everyone looked at Bai Yan, and Bai Yan waved to them to go first, while he continued to stand in the hall, listening to the hostess's instructions alone.
"Steward, I will first explain to you what needs to be done in the past few days, and then you will tell them and let them do as I tell them."
"Yes, ma'am." Bai Yan replied.
"My husband and I have a daily routine like this. Meals are at 7 am, 12 noon, and 6 pm every day. The chef needs to prepare meals for three persons in advance and put them on the table. My eldest son is unwell. I can’t leave the room to eat with us, so I need a maid to bring him three meals every day. Later you will help me call the maid, and I will tell her in person.

"Ok."
"Also, the cleaning lady is responsible for cleaning the house, cleaning windows, cleaning the room, and washing clothes. She does all the tasks. If she can't do it alone, you can ask the maid to help. I don’t need a maid to follow me at any time. Understand?"
"I see, is there anything else, madam?" Bai Yan wrote down all the words of the mistress, while observing the mistress's expression quietly. However, the hostess behaved normally, except for a bit mean, nothing was wrong.
"Yes, there is also the driver. Let him be on standby and get the car ready. Mr. may go out at any time. Tomorrow morning, Mr. will go out. Then you and the bodyguard will go with your husband to protect his safety. Usually at home, the bodyguard You can relax, you don’t have to follow your husband at any time.
The hostess thought for a while, and then said:
In addition, you let the gardener take care of the roses in the garden. My young son likes the flowers in the garden very much, so take care of them.

"Madam, you haven't arranged a tutor yet, what does she need to do?" Bai Yan mentioned An Qing timely.
"By the way, I forgot about her! That female tutor...My son would take a short break after eating at noon every day, and asked her to go to my son’s room for class at one o’clock every afternoon, until five o’clock, a total of four My youngest son is not in good health. I don’t ask him to move forward. Let him learn as long as he is happy. When the time comes, let the tutor listen to my son. He can learn whatever he wants. Let the tutor Reading and listening are fine."
After explaining a series of tasks, the hostess finally concluded: "In short, you guys work hard, and I won’t give you less of the money I should give you. If you come too late today, you don’t need to prepare breakfast. In addition, The tools you need for work can be found in the utility room next to the maid’s room. That’s it, you can go and pass the message first. After explaining your work, you can go to the study room on the third floor to see your husband."
Bai Yan reviewed the request of the mistress in his head, and then stroked his chest with his right hand, bowed and left.
According to the place the hostess pointed before, he found the servant's room.
Just as he had courted before, everyone really didn't wait for him. Without waiting for him to come, the room was negotiated.
Among them, three girls live together. As a veteran player in three games, Lu Tianyi lived in the same room with Zhu Fugui. The remaining three of Bai Yan, Liu Kui, and Li Hao lived in the same room. There was no shortage of bedding in the room, so they could live directly in.
When Bai Yan came over, everyone was still discussing what. Seeing Bai Yan's return, Lu Tianyi greeted him, "Brother, what did the hostess tell you, what kind of work did she arrange for us?"
In the face of everyone's inquiries, Bai Yan repeated what the hostess had arranged, and everyone wrote down their corresponding parts, and at the same time, they were thinking about the dangers that these jobs would hide.
"The hostess asked me to find her alone. I think there is a problem here." The maid Su Xiaoqian said: "Her two sons are not in good health. One of them wants me to deliver meals alone. He will not be the one in this game. Ghost?"
"It's possible." Bai Yan said: "But don't you think the hostess and her husband are also suspicious? Although I haven't seen her husband, it seems that she and his husband are obviously If they are healthy and normal, then it is possible that her two sons are human, and their husband and wife are real ghosts."
"Yes, there is a saying that says,'Those things that seem more normal are more abnormal.' We are all in this ghost place, how can we see normal people?" Gardener Li Hao agreed.
"Not necessarily. In fact, there is another possibility. The four people in the villa are all humans. The terror has another origin." Lu Tianyi said: "The NPCs in the game...sometimes they die before us and provide us with avoidance. The clue to the dead end may be the curse of the villa itself."
"Is there such a possibility? In fact, the four people in the villa have died a long time ago. The ghosts who live here are their ghosts..." Yang Qi, the cleaning lady, unwillingly expressed her opinion.
"..."
After discussing one idea for one person, everyone found that if they did what they thought, either situation was possible.
Without definite clues, the so-called conjectures can only be considered wild thinking. Knowing that the discussion could not produce results, everyone simply shut up and stopped arguing about ‘who is the ghost’, but discussed something more practical.
"All in all, we need intelligence. If there is no intelligence, guessing everything is just a mirror image." Finally, there was a place to rest. An Qing put her crutches aside and sat on the bed and said: "Sorry, my legs are inconvenient. Everyone is holding back."
An Qing frowned and said apologetically: "I can't collect information outside, but I can only search nearby rooms. In the past few days, I will try my best to find if there are any letters left by past servants or hidden compartments in the servants' room. ."
"It doesn't matter, eldest sister, leave it to me outside." Zhu Fugui felt sorry for An Qing, a girl with injured legs and feet, so he patted his chest and comforted him: "You can rest in the room."
"My profession is a driver, and there is nothing in the villa that requires me to be busy. I will have time until tomorrow morning. After a while, Li Hao and I will go around in the garden to see if there is anything suspicious." Liu Kui said: "Yang Qi , Can you pay attention when cleaning the room, and search the drawer quietly when there is no one around? It’s best to find items like diaries and letters."
"...This is not so good." Yang Qi said unwillingly: "The game said,'Players need to complete the tasks assigned by the master, otherwise the consequences will be at your own risk.' The hostess just told us before, don't mess around in the villa except for work. Go, don’t mess around with her things, if you are found out, she will definitely be kicked out."
"Anyway, whoever loves to do it, I won't risk doing this."
"But do nothing, where did we get the clue?" Su Xiaoqian said dissatisfied: "We are not forcing you to search the drawer in front of the master. If you don't do it, don't want to get any news from us. Go out!"
Su Xiaoqian said it was very poisonous, but none of them spoke for Yang Qi.
Lu Tianyi looked a little unbearable and wanted to say something for Yang Qi to relieve the siege, but thought that if everyone was as intimidated as she was, expecting others to take risks and sit back and enjoy themselves, then this game would not be necessary.
Seeing that there was no one to help him speak, Yang Qi narrowed her mouth and reluctantly said: "Well, I see, I will try my best to search the drawer when others are not paying attention. But if the hostess keeps staring at the side For me, I will never do dangerous things."
Yang Qi replied, but Su Xiaoqian couldn't see the tortoise with her head shrunk, so she snorted: "You continue to talk, I will go to the hostess first. She doesn't seem to want other people to talk to her. When the eldest son touches, I'll go and ask to see if I can make sense."
After speaking, Su Xiaoqian flirted with her skirt and left in a hurry.
There was also Lu Tianyi who went out with Su Xiaoqian. Although the hostess said that he did not have to follow her husband all the time, Lu Tianyi felt that the bodyguard who could not be seen for a day could not be justified, so he went to report to her husband.
After the two left, Liu Kui and Li Hao felt that there was nothing to discuss, so they left together and went to the garden to see the roses.
And Zhu Fugui, an authentic countryman, has been cooking in the country. He didn't know what kind of food the rich and famous people in the big city like to eat. He couldn't help being a little worried, so he wandered into the kitchen anxiously, thinking about what to prepare at noon in the kitchen What kind of dishes can be liked by this family.
