Chapter 3 Castle Opera House (3)

Did not notice or did not see, these are two completely different concepts.

Chi Yu looked a little more serious, looked at the other two and said, "I'll go to the opposite side."

They are now standing at the entrance, which is also a side of the theater. If they want to reach the place where the phantom is hiding, they have to cross a row of seats.

Aoki Nanzhi didn't speak, and walked straight towards the back of the auditorium.

Seeing this, the venture capitalist quickly said: "Wait a minute, I think it's safer to gather together..."

No one cares about him.

He scratched in the air in vain with the palms he kept, and then sighed resignedly, "Then, then I'll go and have a look under the stage!"

It was the closest to Hua Feinian, so even if something happened, she would be able to rescue her in time...it should be.

Chi Yu didn't care about their movements, and walked to the last row of seats on his own.

The field of vision was almost pitch black, only the faint blue light emitted by the "Nether Butterfly" faintly illuminated a small area around it.

Chi Yu took a breath, stepped out of the auditorium, and looked at the place where the phantom was hiding.

Nothing.

ran away?
She frowned slightly, expended her spiritual power, and released the butterfly on the back of her hand.

"The Butterfly of the Netherworld" flapped its wings, flew towards the stacked curtains not far from the seat, and circled continuously around it.

According to Hua Feinian, this means that behind the curtain is the place with the highest concentration of "spiritual power" in this area.

Could there... be something hiding there?

Logically speaking, since the system responded, it meant that the scene was not her hallucination, but how to explain the fact that the three of Hua Feinian didn't notice it?
Could it be because... due to the influence of this strange game, some kind of mutation occurred in her eyes?

Chi Yu knew that the safest thing to do now was to find a way to persuade Hua Feinian and call her to explore together, but at this moment, her strong curiosity overwhelmed her nervousness and caution, and she couldn't wait to verify her guess .

She stepped forward step by step, grasped the heavy curtain, and then opened it abruptly.

A pale human face suddenly broke into her sight!

"what!!!"

Behind him, a very shrill scream suddenly erupted.

Chi Yu was taken aback, and subconsciously wanted to look back to see what happened, but unconsciously, he was completely attracted by the figure in front of him.

It was a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, wearing a bright pale pink long dress, with long golden hair hanging down her side, intertwined with the layered skirt, like two entangled ribbons, messy but extremely beautiful.

Her skin was so fair that it was almost transparent, and her blue eyes were full of panic, like a frightened deer.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

From behind, Hua Feinian shouted anxiously, "Dangerous? Are you okay? Call me back!"

After a while, the venture capitalist replied: "...I, I'm fine."

"You scared me to death!"

Hua Fei said angrily, "It's just a porcelain puppet, the reaction is so big... I thought you really triggered the death flag!"

The venture capitalist laughed a little embarrassedly.

Knowing that it was just a false alarm, Chi Yu also heaved a sigh of relief, but still stared at the girl who appeared suddenly in front of him, not daring to slack off.

At the same time, she quickly said silently: "Is she a resentful spirit?"

[The character data exceeds the detection range, so it cannot be confirmed. 】

Without any pause, Chi Yu changed the question: "Then who is she?"

【Her name is Dinah Lester, the youngest daughter of the owner of the castle, Viscount Lester. 】

"What's so special about her?"

[Due to insufficient progress in plot exploration, it is impossible to confirm. 】

What do you want...

Chi Yu slandered a word.

As soon as she thought about it, she heard the system say: [The main reason is that the player's level is too low. Here I suggest you ask after reaching the full level. 】

... The old yin and yang are angry.

Sure enough, she should believe in the truth summed up by countless pioneers: if the system is reliable, sows will climb trees.

"Say..."

After a brief silence, Hua Feinian's voice sounded again, "Do you think the posture of this porcelain puppet looks familiar?"

"Hmm... it seems to be playing the violin? But there is no violin..."

"Interesting, do you think there are many similar porcelain puppets hidden around here? They are all stage actors, and they have been performing plays on the stage when we can't see them?"

"..."

The venture capitalist seemed to imagine it for a while, and his voice trembled in fear: "Stop talking...it's weird."

After listening to the conversation between the two of them, the expression of the girl in front of Chi Yu's eyes moved slightly.

She raised her head, quickly avoided Chi Yu's overly serious gaze, and said hesitantly, "They are indeed actors in stage plays..."

Her voice was not loud, but in this silent environment, it was enough for the other four to hear clearly.

"Who?!" Hua Fei over there immediately turned her gaze, and the white light fell on Chi Yu's side.

"I... I'm Dinah..."

The girl clasped her hands on her chest, and asked nervously, "Who are you? Why are you in my house?"

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding area was silent for a moment.

"...Resentment, resentment..." The venture capitalist was at a loss for words.

Hua Feinian was also very shocked, probably because she didn't expect to find the mission target less than 10 minutes after entering the dungeon.

"Relax!" She immediately reminded loudly.

Chi Yu reacted very quickly, and before she finished speaking, he suddenly jumped to the side, exposing the blond girl to Hua Feinian's sight.

"boom!"

Gunshots sounded!

Flaming bullets drilled into the girl's feet, leaving charred holes in the soft wool carpet.

"Ah!" Dinah exclaimed belatedly at this moment, crouching down with her head in her hands to avoid it.

It was dead silence again.

"Senior..." The venture capitalist broke the silence again, "Your marksmanship doesn't seem very accurate..."

"I want you to take care of it!"

Hua Feinian cursed viciously, and her heart was a little shaken.

This guy is so weak, he doesn't behave like a dungeon boss at all... Could it be that I'm thinking wrong?She is not actually a wraith, but an ordinary NPC?

Just when Hua Feinian began to doubt her life, a slight whimper came from the girl's mouth, echoing in the empty castle.

Chi Yu glanced at the aggrieved girl, then turned to look at Hua Feinian, asking her what to do next.

"Cough, cough."

Hua Feinian pretended to cough twice, jumped off the stage, and came to the girl in two or three steps.

"That... just now was a misunderstanding, we thought you were some kind of monster, so..." She explained in an unconvincing tone, "...Look, when I found out that you were just a little girl It's over right now, isn't it?"

Dinah sobbed and looked up: "Really?"

"Really!" Hua Feinian nodded heavily.

Chi Yu next to him couldn't stand it any longer, so he took two steps back and decided to stay away from this guy who even lied to little girls.

Aoki Nanzhi, who had gone to the back row of the auditorium to check before, had also walked over at some point, and was standing quietly not far away.

Facing Dinah's clear gaze, Hua Feinian changed the topic a little awkwardly: "By the way, you said earlier that the porcelain puppet is an actor in a stage play. Does your family often watch stage plays performed by these porcelain puppet?"

"……Yes."

Seeing that she really didn't mean anything malicious, Dinah plucked up the courage to stand up, "Because this place is far away from the town, no one usually comes here. Mom and Dad are afraid that we will be bored, so they ordered this batch of porcelain puppets."

"I see."

Hua Feinian smiled softly, "About your family situation... mind telling us more?"

Chi Yu couldn't help but look at her again.

It's not enough to deceive underage girls, but now you have to extract information from others...

She actually knew what Hua Feinian was thinking. After all, the mission was to "kill the wraiths living in the castle", that is to say, the wraiths were probably the former owners of the castle, that is, the Leicester family. one of the members.

And this girl, as an "indigenous person", must know something inside.

Otherwise, the system would not have arranged for her to appear.

"Okay." Dinah said timidly, "I'll tell you slowly when I get to the other side of the stage."
