Chapter 143
The footsteps not far away could not be heard.

Lian Cheng pulled the girl and looked at her: "Didn't you say no one can come out at night?"

"The rules are only for our newly recruited maids." The girl didn't seem to be surprised by the footsteps outside: "The original servants in the castle can move around."

"Why." Lian Cheng asked.

"I don't know, maybe we are not qualified enough." The girl was still sitting and dreaming: "If one day we stay here for a long time, we should be able to go anywhere like them."

"Where?" Lian Cheng keenly grasped the key points in the words: "There are many prohibitions on us here?"

The girl didn't realize that Lian Cheng didn't know anything at all. Maybe people in the illusion are always very different from real people. She answered Lian Cheng's questions: "Well. We can only work in the work area specified by us. For example, it is stipulated that I work in the kitchen, so I can only help the people in the kitchen. Other than that, I cannot wander around in any area of ​​the castle."

"You've just arrived, too." Lian Cheng quickly grasped the key point, "shooting" is not something a senior person would do.

"Yeah. We're all new maids." The girl nodded, and said a little shyly, "I've never seen such a luxurious castle before. The tableware here is all gold." Made of silver. My family has never had so much money..."

Lian Cheng got it again, and here are girls from poor families.

To be tricked into being here...

Although the sound insulation effect of the door is very good, light can leak through the cracks in the door.In the middle of chatting, Lian Cheng suddenly saw the light at the door flicker and then go out.

With a "creak" sound, the door that was unlocked just now was actually pushed open!

The bearded gardener walked into the door step by step, but there was no one in the room.

"Has it been over a long time ago... Damn it, let me catch that little bitch another day..." He looked around and went out cursing.

As soon as he went out, the cabinet at the door made a noise, and a girl jumped out of it!
"My God, Lian Cheng, what are you doing?" The moment the light at the door disappeared just now, Lian Cheng immediately pushed the girl beside her into the closet by the door, and then slid under the bed .

"Why did we hide? That was the gardener of the garden just now. What happened to him?" The girl who was forced into the cabinet still didn't understand what happened.

Lian Cheng crawled out from under the bed with a head of dust on her head. She wanted to speak only to realize that she still didn't know the girl's name.

But she couldn't ask blatantly, because this person obviously knew her. She didn't know if there would be something wrong if she asked her name now.

"The gardener just now has been chasing me since I was in the garden." Lian Cheng said, "I suspect he is not a good person. I will take you to hide first."

"No way. He can..." The girl thought for a moment and understood a little bit: "Well, the big beard is quite scary. Then it's time for me to fulfill my promise."

"Wait." Lian Cheng stopped the girl and said, "Do I have to go?"

"Of course, I have to return the things to others."

"Can't we go again tomorrow?"

"But she asked me to give her something today..."

"The bearded man was outside just now. It's easy to bump into him when you go out now, and you will be in danger then."

"Ji Liancheng!" The girl holding the candlestick became angry at once: "You are enough! It is your grudge that the bearded man chased you, but I am going to return what I borrowed! Don't stop me anymore!"

Lian Cheng stood there and watched the girl walk out of the door holding the candlestick. The candlelight flickered at the door and then disappeared.

Lian Cheng stood alone in the bedroom.

She knows.This is just replaying what happened in the past.And the people here have already died in the past.Her retention will not change the course of any life.

So, no matter what, the girl holding the candlestick will die tonight, and no matter how hard she tries to keep her, it will be useless.

Lian Cheng had just figured it out.If this is really the death castle of Countess Bathory, then she alone cannot kill so many people.At least, there must be many of her accomplices hiding in this castle.

And those accomplices are most likely to be senior servants, gardeners and the like in the castle.

They have been working for the castle, coaxing the new girls into death traps.It is not allowed to go out at night, and the door with good sound insulation is probably a preparation for the destruction of corpses and traces.

The gardener just now probably acted on a whim, and wanted to kill her when he saw her going out at night.But their target tonight wasn't her.

It should be the girl who was coaxed out of the house.She said that she was a helper in the kitchen, and the older servants in the kitchen had the right to call her at will.So...she will definitely die tonight.

Lian Cheng couldn't save her and could only watch the tragedy that happened hundreds of years ago unfold here.

After the girl went out for a while, Lian Cheng opened the door and walked out.

She cannot spend the night in a maiden's room.When she was found missing the next day, she was called out and couldn't explain.

What's more, Lian Cheng felt that the gardener didn't know who she was.Otherwise he would have at least called out her name.Since she doesn't know, she can just avoid going to the garden where the gardener is in the future.

Should be able to escape.

Lian Cheng went out, checked the door numbers one by one outside, and finally found the sign with her name on it.All the people here speak foreign languages, only Lian Cheng is unique.The font is different from everything else.However, no one seems to have noticed this violation.

Lian Cheng was even more sure that it was just an illusion.

Walking into the house, he turned around and locked the door.Lian Cheng understands that she must not go out again tonight.Although he was still very worried about Fu Yelin's safety, Lian Cheng realized after thinking about it for a while that someone as smart as him would definitely see the situation clearly before her.Then find a place to hide.What's more, he is a man and has been given an identity in this manor. If he is not a girl, the possibility of being killed is very low. No matter how he thinks, he is safer than himself.

But... After calming down, Lian Cheng thought of her purpose for coming in this time.If you want to go out safely, this illusion must be broken.In the state where Fu Yelin could not be found, he had to be fooled by himself.

So... Lian Cheng recalled an important point that he almost forgot.

"So, what is Madam really looking for?"

The moment she came in, the bloody rose whispered in her ear.

This is believable.

So, she must find what Mrs. Bathory wants in order to win?
So what does she want?Human blood?What does she want human blood for.Fu Yelin never told Lian Cheng about this, she didn't know.

Thinking about it all night.

The next morning, it was as if nothing had happened.Lian Cheng found the girl's diary from the room last night, and understood that her identity here is a cleaning maid. As long as she stays obediently in the corridor and doesn't go out at night, she won't run into the gardener.

However, it is not certain whether she will die at the earl's call tonight.
