Chapter 167 171: Lie

The door to the room was knocked open, and Camilla was lying motionless in her sleeping bag.

There was such a big noise, coughing and banging on the door, but Camilla didn't react at all. Even the dullest person could notice something was wrong.

"Camilla..." Tiger, the man with glasses, called her name in a low voice.

"Hey, Camilla, are you pretending to be dead? Is it fun to scare people?" Eric yelled angrily, trying to pull Camilla out of the sleeping bag.

Ma didn't dare to breathe loudly. She closed her eyes tightly and waited for everyone to discover the truth about Camilla's death.

The expressions of the others were also tense, and Ma was well prepared for the scream, but what he heard was a weak moan.

She opened her eyes carefully, only to see that Camilla was being pulled half-sitting up, rubbing her temples with one hand, her brows were tightly furrowed, and her mouth was making unbearable throbbing noises.

Ma Haohao took a step forward in a daze, not quite sure, wanting to see if Camilla was really still alive.

With a move of his foot, he kicked an object with a strange touch.She looked down and saw a medicine bottle lying on the ground, with a few white pills scattered in it. She didn't know what the composition of the medicine was.

Mahao bent down to pick it up, and there was a string of English written on it that she couldn't understand.

"Sleeping pills." The president said behind Ma Hao.

Ma Hao immediately turned to look at him. From this angle, she suddenly realized that the president was so tall, and she only reached his chest.

With such a height, he can almost catch up with Ogus, but compared to the male protagonist who stands out from the crowd at first glance, the president's sense of presence is almost zero, and he is too weak to be scientific.

And his eyes, when viewed from the front, were hidden behind his hair, but from the distance he was looking at, he could just see his long eyelashes.

Ma Hao thought, maybe she didn't grasp the characteristics of the characters well when writing the article.She wanted to create an image of a cowardly president, but there seemed to be a slight mistake in the character's height.

"How did you..." know it was sleeping pills?
Ma Haohao was about to ask a question, but Camilla over there quarreled with Eric.She had no choice but to shut her mouth resentfully, and felt that it was a good thing she didn't ask the question, otherwise she would be too suspected of having nothing to say.

Maybe the English on the bottle means "sleeping pills"?

"Eric, what are you doing?! Who allowed you to enter my room without consent?" Camilla's eyes were still a little dazed, but the anger of getting up had already rushed to her head, and she shook off Eric's hand, The tone is very aggressive.

Eric's temper was even hotter than hers, and he exploded immediately: "Stop being sentimental. If it weren't for the fear that you would delay the plan, who do you think would come to you?"

"Delaying the plan?" Camilla got angry, and seeing a group of people in the room, she got up and calmed down a little, and her mind slowly came to her senses.

"What time is it?" she asked.

The man with glasses looked at her and hesitated to speak. Rob raised his watch and said coldly: "11:20, Camilla, you are nearly an hour and a half late. I can't believe you are such a People who have no sense of time.”

"I'm late?" Camilla opened her mouth in shock, very surprised that she would be late.She frowned and thought for a while, as if remembering something, she cursed in a low voice: "Damn sleeping pills, I didn't expect them to be so powerful."

The entire castle was very quiet inside and out, and everyone could hear Camilla cursing in a low voice.

Ma Haohao took another look at the president. The president was quite smart. It turned out that the pill in her hand was really a sleeping pill.

"How many sleeping pills have you taken? We couldn't wake you up with such loud calls just now." Tiger asked worriedly. He was really afraid that Camilla would never wake up again.

Rob's focus is not here, he said displeasedly: "Relying on drugs to fall asleep, Camilla, you have refreshed my understanding of you again. The Paranormal Research Society does not need to use these chemicals to overcome fear! "

There was both dissatisfaction and contempt in Rob's words. Camilla didn't know which one of his words hurt her feet, and her eyes were full of resentment when she looked at him.

"Rob, I still want to ask you. Last night in the middle of the night, there was such a commotion in order to walk up and down on the third floor!"

Camilla was furious, "If it wasn't for you, how could I be so noisy that I couldn't fall asleep, and how could I use sleeping pills to help me sleep? You should be half responsible for this matter!"

"I walk around in the middle of the night? Are you kidding me!"

One of Rob's eyebrows was raised high, and he refused to admit Camilla's accusation, "I swear to God, I fell asleep as soon as I got back to the room last night, and I slept until 9 o'clock in the morning."

Camilla had nothing to say, but stared at Rob suspiciously.

"In fact, I also heard the sound of walking on the third floor." Vera stood up and said a fair word, "I can testify that Camilla is not lying. The sound on the third floor didn't stop until dawn."

Tiger, the man with glasses, immediately added weakly: "Me too...I heard it too."

Rob's eyes were red with anger: "What do you mean, Camilla didn't lie, so I lied, didn't I?!"

Vera said: "Rob, calm down. We don't doubt your intentions, but you are the only one living on the third floor."

"Huh? What the fuck is the difference between this and doubting me?!" Rob was like a bull on the verge of running amok, and he was in danger of jumping up and hitting people at any time.

Augus hurried up to smooth things over for everyone, putting his arm on Rob's chest: "Vice President, I believe you are not lying. Maybe...you sleepwalked at night?"

He gave an explanation that he thought was reasonable, but Rob firmly denied it: "I never sleepwalk!"

Eric likes to watch the excitement the most, and he sang Rob's anti-tune: "This can't be said, who knows about falling asleep? How can a sleepwalking person know that he is sleepwalking?"

Rob was so angry that he wanted to punch someone. Ma Hao could clearly see his clenched cheeks, and he probably wanted to tear them apart and eat them.

But in her eyes, whether sleepwalking or insomnia is a trivial matter, the reason why Rob is so angry is probably because his authority as the vice president has been challenged.

Compared with the truth of the matter, he cared more about his face as the vice president.The people in the community actually believed Camilla's words more than him. This is the most unbearable point for Rob, right?

Ma Hao didn't care about Rob's childish macho mentality. What she was most concerned about was that Camila was not dead, but she overdosed on sleeping pills and overslept.

The eight people in the club are all living well, so last night was Christmas Eve?

This is seriously different from the plot in the novel.

Ma Hao has followed the development in the book so far. Why did the plot change before she took action?
