Apocalypse: The Hotel She Runs Is the Only Paradise

Chapter 140

The one who used the magic array to make the servants move around the mansion during the day was also one of these two.

But now, thinking about it, it was possible that the person doing all these things was neither of them!

Gu Wanyin carefully recalled the contents of that letter again.

"Dong Yue, what was that thing you said earlier?" Gu Wanyin turned to look at Dong Yue.

"Huh?" Dong Yue was confused by her question, "Which, which thing?"

"If the Second Young Master was a woman..." Gu Wanyin said, "how could she fall in love with another woman? Something along those lines."

"Oh, oh, right, I did say that." Dong Yue nodded, still confused, "What about it?"

Gu Wanyin was silent for a moment, then said quietly: "This statement might not be absolutely accurate."

Dong Yue: "..."

She looked at Gu Wanyin and took two steps back.

"Boss Gu, you don't have any ideas about me, do you?"

"You're overthinking it."

Dong Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're straight, so you instinctively think that way," Gu Wanyin said.

Gu Han asked in confusion: "Then do you mean the Second Young Master still likes the Second Young Mistress?"

"No, she probably likes the Elder Young Master."

"Then... is it the Second Young Mistress who likes the Second Young Master?"

"That's right! They grew up together as childhood friends! It's not strange for the Second Young Mistress to like the Second Young Master!"

"But she must have accidentally found out that the Second Young Master was a girl," Gu Wanyin said. "However, she had been in love with the Second Young Master since childhood, it had become a habit, so she still couldn't control her feelings. Then she accidentally discovered that the Second Young Master had always been in love with the Elder Young Master."

"So she killed the Elder Young Master?"

"Yes, the letter in the study should have been written by her."

Tao Jianchun asked, puzzled: "But why did that letter end up in the Second Young Master's study?"

"This clue is telling us that the Second Young Master discovered she was the murderer of the Elder Young Master," Gu Wanyin said. "And the servants in the mansion were also killed by her. The reason for using magic to make the servants in the mansion move around was because she needed people to prepare for the wedding."

"How could the Second Young Master allow her to act so recklessly? Wouldn't the Second Young Master be angry after discovering she killed the person she liked?" Gu Han asked, confused.

Gu Wanyin was silent for a moment, then said: "One of my previous deductions might be wrong."

"Which one?" Dong Yue quickly asked.

Zhuang Xiaoxia rubbed the goosebumps on her arms and said: "Earlier, Boss Gu said there were three living people in the mansion, but now it seems... there might only be one."

"That would be the Second Young Mistress."

With these words, everyone fell silent, feeling a chill around them.

"Then I have another question..." Chen Sisi said, her face pale, "The Second Young Mistress wants to have a wedding with a dead person?"

"If she deeply loves the Second Young Master, it's not impossible."

"Maybe after the Second Young Master discovered she had killed the Elder Young Master, they had an argument," Zhuang Xiaoxia said. "She accidentally killed the Second Young Master, then regretted it afterwards and wanted to complete the wedding with her beloved."

"But why invite guests?" Tao Jianchun asked fearfully.

Although they were in a game scenario, the NPCs in the scenario still needed a reason to invite guests to the wedding.

Gu Wanyin turned to look at the small magic array on the ground and said: "The Second Young Mistress must have been in immense pain after accidentally killing her loved one. Since she's involved with these supernatural things, it's not surprising if she created a magic array to resurrect the Second Young Master."

"Then we..."

Gu Wanyin smiled and said: "We guests are naturally the sacrifices needed to resurrect the Second Young Master."

"Looking at it this way, her earlier breakdown in front of us was also to deceive us, creating the illusion that she was trapped in the mansion," Bai Shuwen said. "After all, who could imagine that such a pitiful person was actually the mastermind behind everything?"

"How thrilling," Gu Han said with a bitter smile.

"But what should we do tonight?" Dong Yue said with a grimace. "Although we've more or less analyzed the truth, we can't be certain it's completely correct, and it seems that this scenario requires us to survive the night to leave..."

"It's alright," Gu Wanyin patted her shoulder. "Didn't they say this scenario isn't too difficult? Although tonight will be dangerous, we'll definitely make it through."

Besides, they could still use their special abilities and had items to protect themselves.

"Now, we can only wait for the wedding to begin tonight."

...

Back in the room, the Little Squirrel System immediately jumped onto Gu Wanyin's shoulder and touched her head with its little paw.

Then, Gu Wanyin heard the familiar voice of the system.

"Host! I can finally talk to you again!"

Gu Wanyin was both surprised and delighted. She asked in her mind: "System? How can you suddenly communicate with me?"

"It's Assistant Qiao Xi! She contacted me, she's helping from over there."

Gu Wanyin was very happy.

It seemed that Qiao Xi had indeed been keeping an eye on their situation, reliable as always.

The system angrily shouted again: "066! You're here too, aren't you? Come out now!"

However, no matter how much the system shouted, 066 seemed not to hear, determined to play dead.

"You dare to do it but not admit it, huh? You have the guts to steal my host, but not to show yourself?"

"Alright," Gu Wanyin's head was aching from the noise. "Don't rush. After we get out of this scenario, you can contact Qiao Xi again. She should be able to help us leave the horror world, and then we can figure out how to get revenge."

"Okay! Host, I believe in you. You'll definitely get out of this scenario. Go for it, I support you spiritually!"

Gu Wanyin: "Well, thanks for that."

...

Time seemed to pass quickly that day.

In the blink of an eye, night had fallen.

Everyone sat in the room, their hearts pounding.

"Make sure to wear all the jewelry I gave you," Gu Wanyin reminded them.

"Don't worry!"

Tao Jianchun couldn't help but speak up: "Um... although we didn't know each other before, we're going through this scenario together. If something happens to me tonight, could you..."

Chen Sisi actually wanted to say the same thing.

But her personality wasn't the type to say such things, so she just looked at Gu Wanyin.

She could see that among these five people, Gu Wanyin was in the leadership position.

Gu Wanyin nodded and said: "Don't worry. Since we've met in this scenario, it's fate. If there's anything we can help with tonight, we won't ignore you."

The others nodded as well.

"But I also need to make this clear to you," Gu Wanyin continued. "We have to prioritize our own safety. If helping you would endanger us... then I'm sorry."
