Chapter 40 The Fourth Door

After docking with Tan Zaozao, Ruan Nanzhu quickly determined the clues about Tan Zaozao.

That's Tan Zaozao's third door. Generally speaking, it's not very difficult, but you still have to be careful enough. And this time the clue is only four words - girl in the rain.

Ruan Nanzhu had done her homework before giving clues, and simply told Lin Qiushi about the general information about the girl in the rain. Girl in the Rain is a portrait painted by a Ukrainian painter, this portrait shows a woman with a black hat and a pale face, with her eyes closed, the rain drips down her cheeks and the brim of her hat, dressed in black She seemed to have just attended the funeral, and her expressionless face was as cold as winter.

Lin Qiushi also saw this painting. Of course, what he saw was an imitation. Although the girl in the painting had her eyes closed, if she looked closely, she would have the illusion that she had opened her eyes. The tone of the whole picture is very dark, with a dampness of rain.

The background of this painting is also quite special, and it has been handled by three buyers. And the three buyers finally chose to return it. They all said that after buying the painting, Bian began to be followed by a girl in black, even in the dream.

The girl began to get closer and closer to them, and they finally couldn't stand the situation and returned the scroll to the painter in a panic.

This painting is really not very popular, and Lin Qiushi closed the page after reading it.

Ruan Nanzhu sat next to him, handed him the silver bracelet, and told him to wear it on his wrist for the next few days, but there is one thing to pay attention to, that is, as soon as you enter the door, you must remember to first Time to take the bracelet off so no one else can see it.

"Are you afraid that people from other organizations will find out?" Lin Qiushi asked.

"Well." Ruan Nanzhu said, "This is one of them, and there is actually another reason."

Lin Qiushi said, "What?"

Ruan Nanzhu glanced at the bracelet: "Because this bracelet is a cursed thing."

Lin Qiushi: "..."

Ruan Nanzhu: "Oh, yes, in fact, your earrings are also, but the effect is not as strong."

Lin Qiushi reflexively touched the earrings on his ears. After Ruan Nanzhu forcibly nailed them to his ears, there was almost no sense of existence. He usually didn't notice it. He was a little surprised to hear Ruan Nanzhu say this. : "The cursed thing?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "Well, but don't worry, this thing is basically useless, it can only be used to find people."

When Ruan Nanzhu said this, Lin Qiushi nodded reassuringly.

But when it comes to cursed things, Lin Qiushi still hasn't found a way to use the notebook that Ruan Nanzhu brought out from the door. The only thing that is certain is that the notebook cannot record the content, because everything written on it will disappear for no reason.

Ruan Nanzhu said: "You don't have to worry, the function of the notebook can be explored slowly."

Lin Qiushi said hello.

In the next few days, Lin Qiushi focused on the clues, but there were not many clues about the girl in the rain. Now this painting has been banned from being exhibited. The reason is that when this painting was exhibited, many viewers There were mood swings and even hallucinations. The author of the original painting also had serious mental problems. Of course, the official statement is that the original painting author used raw materials and canvases contaminated with potions when painting. As for whether this is really the case, no one knows the answer. .

It is still a mystery where this painting is, but it should be sealed.

Tan Zaozao also knew the clues about her door. She was very relaxed, and she was completely different from Xu Xiaocheng, who was crying bitterly because of a little disturbance in the door.

Tan Zaozao's explanation for this was his acting skills, and Ruan Nanzhu sneered after hearing it.

"What are you laughing at?" Tan Zaozao was a little annoyed.

Ruan Nanzhu said, "Why, you're not even allowed to laugh?"

Tan Zaozao snorted and said, "Are you wearing women's clothes this time?"

Ruan Nanzhu said: "Don't wear it."

Tan Zaozao: "Why don't you wear it..." She seemed disappointed.

Ruan Nanzhu: "There is no reason."

When the two communicated, Lin Qiushi was digging for ice cream and eating it, Tan Zaozao shifted his gaze to him and said coquettishly, "Lin Lin, persuade him to keep wearing women's clothes. Bar."

Lin Qiushi: "...Does it matter whether you wear it or not?"

Tan Zaozao sighed: "Oh, it's such a pity not to wear women's clothes for such a good foundation."

Lin Qiushi: "..." How does he feel that Tan Zaozao has other plans.

Soon, the time to enter the door will come, because it is the third door, and Tan Zaozao's control of time is not particularly good. So one night Lin Qiushi was lying on the bed when he suddenly woke up. He felt a kind of panic, as if the familiar bedroom had become another place.

Sure enough, as soon as Lin Qiushi opened his eyes, he saw that there were no more walls around him, but twelve doors. These twelve doors formed a circle and surrounded him with him as the center.

Lin Qiushi got up from the bed, quickly changed his clothes, found the third door, took a deep breath, and pulled the door handle.

The scene changes instantly.

After a while of dizziness, everything around him changed.

A tall ancient castle appeared in front of Lin Qiushi's eyes. This ancient castle seemed to be some years old. It stood in a dense bush, surrounded by densely packed iron fences, which surrounded the entire ancient castle.

Lin Qiushi stood beside the bushes, and there was no one around. After entering the door, he did not forget Ruan Nanzhu's instructions, and the first thing he did was to take off the bracelet on his wrist.

This was the first time he was alone after entering the door. Fortunately, there would not be any too terrifying scenes when he first entered the door. Lin Qiushi observed the surrounding scene and walked towards the castle.

The environment here is very desolate, the bushes have not been pruned for a long time, and are dense and lush, and some vines are beginning to block people's view. The iron fence is a thick fog with no end in sight. The thick fog seems to be a warning to people, and people can't help but want to stay away.

Lin Qiushi walked to the entrance of the castle, and before he entered, he heard the howling coming from inside.

"Help, help—" This was the voice of a young girl, her emotions seemed to have completely collapsed, and her crying was hoarse and unbearable.

"Can you stop crying, you've been crying for more than an hour." Someone persuaded impatiently, "If you really don't believe it, go out and see if you can get out of here."

When Lin Qiushi heard this, he immediately understood the situation inside. This is probably the newcomer link that will appear every time.

People who have just come to this world will always be a little uncomfortable, and they can understand all kinds of strange reactions.

Lin Qiushi thought so, pushed open the door of the castle, and walked in.

At this time, five people had gathered in the door, either standing or sitting in the lobby on the first floor of the ancient castle. When they saw Lin Qiushi come in, they didn't say hello, and their expressions were mostly indifferent and suspicious.

Lin Qiushi found a random place to sit down, and began to observe the surroundings. Soon, he found what he was looking for in the crowd.

In the corner of the crowd, there was a beautiful man in a T-shirt and a cowboy. Although the man was sitting in the corner, he was also very eye-catching, because his appearance was so beautiful, especially the tear mole on the corner of his eye, which was even more attractive. It adds a bit of flair. Although his expression was cold, his temperament was alienated, and he seemed very difficult to approach, the people around him couldn't help but cast their eyes on him.

Lin Qiushi vaguely understood another reason why Ruan Nanzhu wanted to dress up as a woman. There are many beautiful women, but such a beautiful man can easily attract the attention of others, and even attract attention that should not be there.

Ruan Nanzhu also noticed his gaze, he glanced at Lin Qiushi coldly, and then looked away.

The howling girl was obviously a newcomer. She had just come to this world and could not accept this weird scene for the time being, so she could only use her cry to express her fear at this moment.

She sat on the sofa with tears streaming down her face, and looked at the people around her with fearful and suspicious eyes from time to time, "Where the hell is this place, can you let me go? Is this a TV show? I don't want to play anymore, I beg you-"

"I said it's not a TV show. Are you fucking annoying? When you cry here, everyone's head will explode." A young man finally couldn't stand the girl's way of crying, and roared very irritably. Said, "If you want to cry, go cry, where you go is your business, don't bother us here!"

The girl was stunned by the roar, and she looked at the man's vicious appearance, and abruptly held back the cry, her face flushed red.

Faced with such a scene, everyone else tacitly pretended not to see it. In fact, it is wise to accept the reality early. Unfortunately, it is difficult for most people to adapt quickly in the face of the great changes in the environment.

The door of the ancient castle was opened, and people came in one after another.

Tan Zaozao was the last to come in. She was wearing a long orange dress with a white corsage on her chest. She had a pitiful expression and sobbed from time to time. It's a pity that someone has taken her role at this time. The new girl has been crying for more than an hour, but it still doesn't stop. After being yelled at by the man, she is quiet for at most five minutes, and then starts to sob again. Lin Qiushi's ears are covered with tears. The cry she gave was numb.

There were ten people in the castle, half male and half female. Among them, there were two newcomers, one was a tearful girl who could continue to hold on after two hours of crying, and the other was a black-haired boy who hid in the corner and shivered after coming in.

After everyone arrived, a dull bell rang in the castle, and at the corner of the stairs, a man in a black housekeeper's uniform appeared.

The man walked among them, smiled kindly at them, and said, "Everyone is finally here, my master has been waiting for a long time, please."

After he finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the second floor.

Experienced people knew that this was about to release a clue, and they followed closely. Although the two newcomers didn't know what was going on, they didn't dare to leave the army, so they also mixed in with the crowd and walked towards the second floor. .

This ancient castle is very big. The stairs to the second floor are extraordinarily long. After walking through the long stairs, there is also a long and narrow corridor. The lights on the corridor are dim and only some faint oil lamps are hung. And behind the oil lamp, is a picture of a strange style of oil painting.

Why is the painting style peculiar, because these oil paintings can hardly see the main body in the picture, like scenery, but also like people, the color is on the canvas, forming a kind of distorted posture, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling Feel.

The thick carpet on the floor eliminated the footsteps of everyone, and the entire corridor was silent, only a faint light flickered.

There was a half-closed wooden door at the end of the corridor. The butler walked to the wooden door, bent over and opened it, making a gesture of invitation.

Ruan Nanzhu walked in the front, he took a step and entered the house.

Lin Qiushi followed closely and also saw the scene in the house.

It turned out that this was a dining room. There was a huge dining table in the center of the room. On the dining table, all kinds of food had been arranged. At the end of the dining table, there was the owner of the butler's mouth—a woman with a slender face wearing a black hat and a long black dress. Her face is very white, almost like paper, but her black eyes are a little too big. Under the dark light, she looks like two bottomless black holes. Her lips are covered with red lipstick. Shi Zheng grinned at them with a slight grin - if that really counted as a smile.

This scene really made people feel uncomfortable, everyone was quiet, and even the new girl who had been crying stopped sobbing in horror.

"Please." The butler's voice came again, "Everyone, please enjoy a good meal."

Ruan Nanzhu was the first to move. He found a chair at random and sat down, then picked up the wet towel and wiped his hands.

Lin Qiushi sat beside him.

The others also began to sit down one after another. After everyone was seated, the hostess picked up the bell and shook it, announcing the meal. She didn't speak from the beginning to the end, and even her expression didn't change. She silently picked up the knife and fork and began to eat the food on the table slowly.

Lin Qiushi observed her from the corner of his eye. He noticed that the woman's hands seemed to be too large, with protruding knuckles and a dull gray-white nail. Those huge hands were carefully holding the cold tableware, thin and thin. Thinly cut the bloodshot steak on the plate, then forked the steak and sent it into the bloody mouth.

This picture was so uncomfortable that Lin Qiushi watched it for a while, and even had a sense of doubt about whether the hostess was human. He retracted his gaze, but noticed that Tan Zaozao, who was sitting beside him, also began to stare at the hostess... as if he was possessed.

Lin Qiushi coughed lowly and caught Tan Zaozao's attention.

"Let's eat." Lin Qiushi whispered.

"Yeah." Tan Zaozao also noticed that something was wrong with him, and after nodding, he didn't dare to look again, and began to cut his steak with his head lowered.

The taste of this meal is actually good, whether it is an appetizer or a dessert, the taste is very authentic. It's just that in such an environment, everyone really doesn't have the heart to taste delicious food.

Ruan Nanzhu has always had a big heart. He didn't show any discomfort from beginning to end. He ate all the food, not even the fruit.

At the back, it became a situation where everyone was watching him eat, and he didn't feel unnatural. After eating, he wiped his mouth and put down the knife and fork.

After the last person stopped to eat, the hostess stood up and walked towards the door.

The housekeeper said: "Please everyone, the master will take you to see the things you have been waiting for for a long time."

The crowd followed in a hurry, following the hostess up the winding stairs.

I don't know how many floors this castle has. Lin Qiushi counted the floors as he climbed up, and the hostess took them to the seventh floor.

She walked to the end of the corridor on the seventh floor, opened a door, and walked into the door.

No one dared to go in directly, but chose to observe for a while at the door.

The room in front of it should be a studio, with many tools to be used for painting, but the most eye-catching is a painting covered with white cloth in the middle of the studio. The butler's voice sounded timely behind them, he said: "There are still a few days left, and the most anticipated painting is about to be completed. In the remaining few days, please hold back your excitement and enjoy the castle. The other scenery in the painting will definitely be appreciated by everyone when the master completes the painting.”

When Lin Qiushi heard this, he understood their identities. They appeared as admirers of the mistress's painting skills, and they had to stay here for a few days until the mistress's painting was finished. From the current information, it seems that the key to go out may also be related to the final painting of the hostess.

"Everyone, please don't disturb my master to continue to create." The steward said, "It's getting late today, please go back to your room early to rest."

He said and brought everyone back downstairs.

They live on the third floor, one person per room, the keys of the rooms are randomly assigned, and the numbers above correspond to their respective rooms.

Lin Qiushi was lucky. It happened to be opposite Ruan Nanzhu, but Xu Xiaocheng was unfortunately assigned to a corner room. She held the key and mumbled dissatisfiedly for a while.

The room is big and nicely decorated. It's just that whether it's the huge bed with amazing size or the dresser with complicated style, it's showing the atmosphere of the times.

The owner of the castle is probably very fond of painting, and there is even a painting hanging in the center of the room. This painting is of an ancient castle that seems to be under a rain curtain. The tone is very dark. Lin Qiushi glanced at it and took the painting off the wall and covered it on the ground.

Because the clue was Beauty in the Rain, Lin Qiushi always felt that the accident must have something to do with the painting.

After washing up, he went to bed. Before going to bed, he checked his mobile phone as usual, and he was not surprised to see that there was no signal on the mobile phone.

He lay on the bed for a while, and when it was almost time, he got up and knocked on the door quietly.

With a crunch, Ruan Nanzhu opened the door for Lin Qiushi.

"Nanzhu." After Lin Qiushi went in, he noticed that there was also a painting in Ruan Nanzhu's room. This painting seemed to depict the bushes at the entrance of the castle, and the weather was still rainy.

"Well." Ruan Nanzhu seemed to have just washed his hair, and his hair was wet. He wiped his hair and said, "What did you find?"

"She looks too much like the girl in the rain." Lin Qiushi said, "it almost looks like she came out of a painting."

Ruan Nanzhu nodded: "Indeed."

Lin Qiushi was talking about the hostess. As long as you see the painting of the girl in the middle school, and then see the hostess of the castle, you will definitely connect the two of them together.

Ruan Nanzhu pointed to the painting hanging on the wall: "Do you have one in your room?"

Lin Qiushi nodded: "Yes, the content is different, it is a painted castle."

"Take it off." Ruan Nanzhu said.

"I've already taken it." Lin Qiushi said, "How about Tan Zaozao?"

Ruan Nanzhu said, "I'll go take a look later, if she doesn't work, I'll take her over and live."

Lin Qiushi hummed.

Ruan Nanzhu said: "You have nothing to say?"

Lin Qiushi thought that Ruan Nanzhu was asking him for clues, and he shook his head, saying that he had not found more, and he had to look again tomorrow.

Ruan Nanzhu: "...Forget it, it's nothing."

In fact, if possible, Lin Qiushi is naturally most willing to live with Ruan Nanzhu, because in this way, both of them have someone to take care of. But this time, there is another Tan Zaozao to take care of, so Lin Qiushi can only take care of it.

Talking to Ruan Nanzhuo again, Lin Qiushi returned to his room.

As a result, as soon as he entered the room, he froze, and saw the paintings he had taken from the wall just now returned to the wall again ...

Lin Qiushi: "..." He was silent for a moment, and stepped forward and took the painting.

This time he did not put it in the corner, but opened the drawer to put the painting inside, and used a stool to fight the drawer.

The night fell, and the wind began to blow out of the window. Lin Qiushi lay on the bed, heard the breeze passing through the treetops, and made a sound.

There was a beautiful crystal lamp on the ceiling of the bedroom, and Lin Qiushi stared at the crystal lamp and began to daze. He knew he should sleep, but he couldn't sleep, and wanted to let go of his mind, but his spirit became more and more sober.

The wind is getting bigger and bigger, Lin Qiushi smells a rainy smell of rain. It is the rain drops on the dry ground. The unique water smells. This smell should be very light. At this time The nasal cavity began to flood the humid atmosphere.

Lin Qiushi always looked at the ceiling's eyes suddenly. don't know when, a clear water stain began to appear on the top of his head, and it seemed so conspicuous on the white wall. He rubbed his eyes vigorously, and the water stain was still still ... this is not him who read it wrong.

But shouldn't he be a room on the top of his building? How can leak water? Lin Qiushi felt that the situation was a bit bad, and the water stain became more and more obvious. He didn't dare to lie on the bed anymore, and quickly got up and turned on the lights.

After the light was on, Lin Qiushi looked at the ceiling, but found that the ceiling was empty ... nothing.

Is this an illusion? Or is it prompt? Lin Qiushi tried to turn off the lights. Sure enough, after the lights went out, the black water stains appeared again, and compared with the water stains just now, it began to show a strange pattern, just like it was like it, just like it was like One ... a woman's side face.

Lin Qiushi turned on the light again.

He looked around, got up and walked to the window, pulled the window over, and pulled down the cuttings.

It was raining outside and the rain was not heavy, but the sound was very clear.

Lin Qiushi looked out of the window, and he saw the garden in the rain curtain.

In the deepest part of the garden, a black figure appeared. It wearing a raincoat and a black round hat, standing quietly in the bushes, staring at the ancient castle in front of it, as if a guest, as if returning to others.

But when Lin Qiushi looked again, the figure became the shadow of the tree, but it was his illusion of excessive nervousness.

The author has something to say:

40 chapters, ask for nutrient solution ah ah (the author howl

Explain the clues.

A door will only have one clue. If the key of the person from the fifth door opens the door, the clue of the sixth fan is out, and the door of the person is subject to the door level of the person who is stunned.

If there is a clue on the body, the door will automatically match the clue. Generally, the two clues will not match together, unless some special circumstances.

Taking Tan Zaozao as an example, she is going to enter the third door. As long as Ruan Nanzhuang has a clue from the second door of someone, the third door of the Tan Zao Zao is that The clues are matched.

Therefore, Ruan Nanzhu took Li Dongyuan to work, and after the door was scratched, a bunch of low -level doors were brushed.
