Chapter 419

Facing the blonde young lady Aiqi Carter suddenly standing up, Asuna and the others were startled. They immediately realized that this young lady had thought of something.

"Miss Carter, what's wrong?"

"Where are the other guests!"

Aiqi said with a somewhat calm tone.

"They should be out for a walk!"

The blonde young lady immediately turned around and walked away without the slightest hesitation.

This made Asuna anxious.

She had just spent a long time telling the story of 'my relationship with my father is not good' to try to delay the blonde young lady, but now it seemed it was going to fail.

"Miss Carter, actually we hope that you and your father can resolve your conflicts and build a good relationship."

Asuna went all out.

She had been avoiding violating the rule reminder, avoiding mentioning 'Master', but now, in order to win more time for Zero, she did not hesitate to risk herself to do so.

Aiqi stopped her steps. She glanced out of the corner of her eye, "This is not a matter for you to care about, even if you are guests invited by my father."

After speaking,

Aiqi immediately set off.

Leng Shuang blocked Aiqi's path, but failed.

The blonde young lady walked to the stairs with a vigorous posture and headed straight for the fourth floor.

Behind her, Asuna, Leng Shuang, and the others followed, and of course, the maid also followed closely.

"Guests, please do not go up to the fourth floor."

At the stairs on the third floor, the maid stopped Asuna and the three others who were trying to follow upstairs.

The three had no choice but to stop their steps.

'Thump...'

At this time, a sound came from the fourth floor, which made the maid's expression change slightly. The blonde young lady ran up directly, and the maid also hurriedly followed.

"Young Lady, are you suspecting..."

"I suspect someone has come to the fourth floor."

Lisha pointed to the room on the right side of the stairs and nodded to indicate.

The maid first tried to open the door of the tightly closed first bedroom on the right; the door was closed. She then headed to her own room, and soon she came out, having found no one.

And Aiqi, who had been guarding the stairs, now set off for the room on the left. Her father's room was tightly closed, and her own room had no changes.

She searched one place after another, and finally stood in front of her wardrobe.

At this moment,

she stared at the wardrobe, her right hand gripped the handle, and she opened it slowly.

What met her eyes were only clothes.

She reached in to search, but found nothing.

No one?

Impossible, how could there be no one?

She had clearly heard a sound just now.

"Asuna, what are you doing here?"

A faint voice came, and Aiqi immediately left her room and went downstairs, where she saw Lin Ye, who had reunited with Asuna and the others at the third-floor stairs.

She looked at Lin Ye.

"Where is the guest who was walking with you!"

"I was walking alone, what's wrong? Miss Carter."

"..."

The blonde young lady scanned with her eyes, seemingly not knowing what to say.

And the silver-haired maid trotted down, "The guests are all here!"

She looked at Lin Ye, who had appeared, as well as Asuna and the four others, and could not help but speak, "Young Lady, could that sound just now have been the sound of the wind?"

"Maybe!"

She replied, and then signaled to everyone with her eyes before going up to the fourth floor.

The silver-haired maid apologized to everyone embarrassedly, "Sorry, our Young Lady really dislikes people going up to the fourth floor. In the past, guests went to the fourth floor without permission and were driven out of the villa by the Young Lady, so..."

"Understood, we also don't want strangers to come into our own bedrooms."

"Thanks for understanding, I'm going to the first floor to continue preparing dinner."

The silver-haired maid left respectfully and headed to the first floor.

Only Lin Ye and the other four players remained at the third-floor stairs. At this time, Lin Ye became the center of focus.

Asuna was very sure there was a sound on the fourth floor, but why did Lin Ye suddenly appear on the third floor?

Climb out the window? Can you climb out the window on the fourth floor?

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

Asuna shook her head; they all knew this was not a suitable place for communication.

"I'm planning to go for a walk before dinner, what are you planning..."

"Let's go together."

Asuna spoke up.

They wanted to understand the situation on the fourth floor.

The group walked out of the villa and came to the garden.

The garden under the twilight was stained with a thin layer of red blush.

"There are four rooms on the fourth floor, from left to right, they are the Young Lady's, the Master's, an empty bedroom, and the maid Lisha's bedroom."

"And in the maid's bedroom, I found keys, keys to every room, hanging neatly on the wall on that side of the desk."

Once keys were mentioned,

several people immediately became interested.

"Is there a key to the basement?"

"Yes, I've already brought it down."

"Wha..."

After the exclamation, Passerby could not help but praise, "As expected of Brother Zero, you took the keys directly."

If it were him, he at least would not have taken the keys immediately.

"The keys are basically identical in shape, I used the guest room key to temporarily impersonate the basement key."

"So that's how it is,"

Leng Shuang realized that the loss of the basement key would not be exposed in the short term, "We must confirm the situation in the basement as soon as possible and return the keys."

Once the maid or the Young Lady noticed something, it was entirely possible they would confirm the basement key.

At that time, if the theft was confirmed, it could also be confirmed that guests had been to the fourth floor. What would happen after that?

No one on the scene could fully predict.

"Currently, the maid is busy in the kitchen, there are still more than twenty minutes until 5:30, and the blonde young lady is on the fourth floor. Now is the best time for us to investigate the basement."

Once Lin Ye said this, it made everyone unable to avoid being startled once again.

Fast, too fast, without a single breath of pause.

"How to arrange it?" Leng Shuang said.

"Passerby and Miss Lin go to the kitchen to watch the maid, Miss Leng Shuang, you go to the second-floor entrance to guard. If the Young Lady comes downstairs, make a sound to warn us, and Asuna, you and I will go to the basement."

Actually, Leng Shuang felt that it should be her and Lin Ye going to the basement together. The basement sounded like it was riddled with crises, and she, with the strongest strength, should accompany Lin Ye.

"How about... I go with you!"

She was a level 4 player, much stronger than the level 1 Asuna.

But Lin Ye looked at Asuna. If Asuna accepted, he could also accept.

"Leave it to me! I'll go to the basement with Zero. If there is real danger, I think there should be no problem for the two of us to run away."

Asuna agreed.
