Chapter 427

~6 min read 1,028 words

She quickly covered her head, and her face also became pale, "Head... hurts so much."

Asuna supported the maid and gently rubbed the maid's little head, "Lisha, don't think about it, if you can't remember, don't think about it, let's go eat."

She diverted the maid's attention to avoid further stimulating her brain by recalling memories related to her mother.

Asuna supported the maid and walked away first.

Leng Shuang spoke up at this time, "Could it be the Young Lady's mother?"

"There is this possibility, but now it can be confirmed that this mother is the maid's mother."

"The circle is really messy."

The maid's mother was the woman of the villa owner, the Master, and even became the wife and hostess,

Then what about the Young Lady Aiqi Carter!

This young lady obviously could not be the biological daughter of the maid's mother.

Is there a contradiction in this?

After the Master died, a wealth and power struggle occurred between Miss Carter and her stepmother? Leading to a death event.

It's just that the maid Lisha doesn't know.

Several people's minds were filled with imagination, and there were many more guesses.

"Let's go! Let's go eat first."

"Brother Zero..." Passerby looked at Lin Ye with full expectation.

Lin Ye supported Passerby and headed to the dining room.

At the dining table,

Passerby hoped Lin Ye could continue to help, but Lin Ye refused flatly.

Finally, Passerby ate his breakfast with a regretful expression.

At noon,

Asuna, according to Lin Ye's request, made a request to the maid, using the excuse of 'talking about the Master' to invite the young lady to the reception hall on the first floor.

The maid excused herself and left. Passerby, who was outside, was already waiting.

"Miss Lisha, can you accompany me for a stroll in the garden? As a maid, you must be able to satisfy this small request of mine!"

Lisha nodded.

And in the reception hall, there were only Leng Shuang, Asuna, and the blonde young lady.

"What is the matter with calling me down?"

"Master Carter is actually already dead."

"..."

But Aiqi Carter did not have much fluctuation.

"It seems that the relationship between you and your father is very bad."

"It has nothing to do with the guests,"

Their purpose was to delay, nothing more.

Aiqi Carter looked at the two, her gaze occasionally looking at the old-fashioned clock in the reception hall. She cared very much about time.

Lin Ye returned to the fourth floor. He arrived at the maid's room at the first opportunity.

'Click, click...'

The door was closed and locked.

"I knew it."

Lin Ye quickly took out the key in his pocket, the key obtained from the maid.

The keys on the wall on the side of the desk were still hanging quietly. Lin Ye took down several keys from the first row and headed to the 'Master's' room.

Accompanied by a 'crack', the Master's room opened.

This room was simple yet low-key and luxurious.

But because no one had lived there for a long time, the air was very stuffy.

Lin Ye scanned at a glance and saw the items placed on the desk.

He walked in and saw the collar and dog leash lying quietly on the desk, and in the middle of the dog collar was a wooden box.

Lin Ye opened the wooden box, and what met his vision was an empty space, there was nothing.

He took out the key in his hand and put it in, the size was just right.

"The key in the wooden box should be the basement key, but it has already been taken away."

And the key in the fifth row in the maid's bedroom was a diversion.

"The key is already known to be in whose hands, but where would she hide it?"

"Where would a key be hidden to be safe!"

"If it were me, where would I hide it!"

Lin Ye began to think from her perspective.

A while later, he heard a scream suddenly sound downstairs and realized that the young lady was coming up.

Therefore, Lin Ye grabbed the three items on the table and left the Master's room, restored the keys, and locked the maid's room.

The collar and dog leash placed together with the keys must be useful.

Lin Ye clearly remembered the maid mentioning the sentence 'After the Master disappeared, the German Shepherd John's dog leash and collar also disappeared'.

Whether it's useful or not, take it first.

Downstairs,

because of Asuna's scream, Lisha rushed back at the first opportunity,

"Miss Asuna, what happened?"

"A, a mouse, a very big mouse just ran past here, so scary."

She hugged Leng Shuang, her face slightly pale, her expression nervous.

"A, a mouse... this... this shouldn't be possible!"

The maid said hesitantly,

"Really, Miss Leng saw it too."

Leng Shuang nodded toward the maid,

"Wow! How could a mouse suddenly appear! There haven't been mice in the villa for a long time, John catches one every time it sees one, they should have all been caught and scared away."

The maid had a headache on the spot, "Miss Asuna, please rest assured, I will definitely catch the mouse, give me some time."

"This... it ran away, let's just forget it!"

"No, the Carter family's villa, how can mice be allowed to run rampant and scare the guests! Absolutely not, I must catch it,"

The silver-haired maid was aggressive, with a fierce appearance of fighting the mouse for three hundred rounds.

"I'll support Asuna back to the room first,"

"Hmm, hmm, scaring Miss Asuna, it is indeed a dereliction of duty, very sorry."

Under Lisha's apology, Leng Shuang supported Asuna and came to the second floor.

Lin Ye was already waiting, and Passerby came up before long.

The four people came to the room.

"Any gains, did you find the key?"

Under the expectant eyes of the three, Lin Ye took out a wooden box.

Surprise emerged.

"It's empty, the key was taken and hidden."

"..."

"There are two other items,"

Lin Ye displayed the collar and dog leash in front of the three.
