Quick Transmigration: Even Extras Want to Be Leading Actresses

Chapter 26 The Villa on the Mountain (7)

The next morning, Gu Shijiu was awakened by the strong aroma of meat.

The people in the other rooms also opened their doors.

"It smells so good!" Gu Shijiu rushed into the kitchen, where a stew of beef and tendon was being made on the stove.

Unfortunately, she could only look and not eat. She licked her lips, forcing herself to look away.

"The guest is awake." It was the male servant who looked like a dried-up corpse last night who spoke. "There are eggs, bread, and milk on the table."

Gu Shijiu dejectedly smelled the odor from the kitchen.

"Breakfast is on the table, and this is for your lunch. Of course, if you are in a hurry, we can serve you a bowl first."

The male servant seemed to be tempting Gu Shijiu.

Gu Shijiu quickly left the kitchen before she could rationally leave home.

Shi Qi was looking for her: "I went to your room but couldn't find you. Were you lured there by the smell of the kitchen?"

Gu Shijiu pouted, "It smells so good."

Shi Qi instantly understood; this couldn't be eaten either: "What about these on the table? Do you want some?"

Gu Shijiu stuffed a piece of bread into her mouth and drank some milk, and Shi Qi couldn't stop her.

"It tastes like chewing wax," Gu Shijiu commented.

It tasted completely different from the milk bread she had eaten before.

"It seems she can eat," Shi Qi comforted her while eating breakfast, "It'll be fine once we get out."

Gu Shijiu felt resentful watching Shi Qi eat so heartily: "You seem to be enjoying your meal."

"Didn't you eat ghost food last night? Are you not hungry now? We'll find some more later."

Shi Qi certainly couldn't just stand by and watch her go hungry.

"You really do have a way." Gu Shijiu was very satisfied.

"Why aren't you eating anything again, guest?" The hostess asked, adopting a tearful and plaintive demeanor.

Even the members of the expedition team couldn't stand it anymore.

Cheng Qi looked indignant: "Why are you making that face when the food is so delicious?"

Shi Qi tried to smooth things over: "She's allergic to milk, eggs, and wheat, so she can only eat the food she brings herself."

It sounds completely unbelievable.

"Is there anything she's not allergic to?" Cheng Qi asked with a mocking expression.

The hostess chimed in, "Yes, guest. If you have any allergies, please tell me and I'll have the kitchen prepare them."

Shi Qi was prepared and changed the subject: "Don't you guys think someone's missing here?"

The expedition team then realized that Ma Jiahua had not come downstairs.

"This guy can sleep so much! All the noise from all of us didn't wake him up?"

Liu Yuling complained, half-jokingly and half-seriously.

Cheng Qi shouted from below, "Ma Jiahua, the sun's already high in the sky! Get up and have breakfast!"

No one responded.

An ominous atmosphere permeated the restaurant.

Chen Yao's heart pounded: "Could something have happened?"

As the team leader and organizer, she would be held responsible if anything went wrong.

"Go up and take a look, and you'll find out."

Cheng Qi and Ma Jiahua were friends. He took the lead and ran upstairs, knocking on the other's door.

"Ma Jiahua, come down for dinner."

There was still no response from inside the room.

Cheng Qi pressed down on the handle: "If you don't say anything, I'm coming in."

Deadly quiet.

Cheng Qi turned the handle, but the door could not be opened from the outside.

Everyone in the restaurant downstairs went upstairs, and Aunt Wang stood in the corner watching them.

"Aunt Wang, can this room be opened?" Liu Yuling asked Aunt Wang anxiously.

"Of course." Aunt Wang still had that same kind and honest face.

But everyone suddenly noticed that she had a key in her hand beforehand, as if she had prepared it in advance.

As soon as the door opened, Cheng Qi rushed in and saw a scene he would never forget.

Ma Jiahua looked as if she had been crushed by a jack; she was just a skinny person with her front and back stuck together.

As for the inside, it was flattened, squeezed out of the body, and seeped into the bed.

Blood was everywhere on the bed, with occasional pieces of torn tissue testifying to how he died.

Liu Yuling and Zhang Yaoyao immediately vomited.

After the two of them vomited, the rest of the expedition team seemed to have a switch flipped, and they started vomiting one after another.

Shi Qi couldn't resist either; all that milk and eggs she had just eaten was for nothing.

Only Gu Shijiu and Aunt Wang stood to the side.

Aunt Wang glanced at Gu Shijiu with slight surprise, but didn't say anything.

The woman of the house heard the noise and went upstairs. When she saw the mess in front of her, she frowned deeply.

"Aunt Wang, how can we let the guests see these disgusting things? Clean them up quickly. Miss will get angry again if she hears the noise downstairs."

Liu Yuling looked at the woman in horror: "My companion died in this room, how can I clean it up? Of course I have to call the police immediately!"

She took out her phone, only to find that there was no signal at all.

By the way, it snowed heavily on the mountain yesterday, and my phone had no signal the whole time.

Chen Yao and the others took out their phones, but obviously, none of them had a signal.

She regained her composure and dealt with the immediate problem: "Madam, please don't disturb the scene. We'll go down the mountain to find the police right away."

The woman of the house neither agreed nor disagreed.

The members of the expedition team dared not linger any longer and rushed down the mountain.

Gu Shijiu and Shi Qi returned to the living room and sat on the sofa without leaving.

Liu Yuling and the others were terrified and no longer cared about the two people.

The hostess seemed somewhat surprised: "Someone has died. Do you two still want to stay?"

Gu Shijiu nodded: "We're not leaving."

Anyway, there's no way to leave.

The hostess smiled happily: "Then I wish our guests a pleasant stay."

Sure enough, around noon, several pale-faced members of the expedition team returned to the villa.

As soon as Liu Yuling entered the room, she grabbed Gu Shijiu's hand in a panic.

"It's all snow outside, and the snow is falling heavier and heavier. It's so cold, it's unbearable. We can't even find the way down the mountain..."

She spoke incoherently, but Shi Qi understood that she had been forced to come back.

They either freeze to death outside or try their luck back at the villa.

These people have no choice but to come back.

Cheng Qi returned to Ma Jiahua's room, where the crime scene had already been cleaned up.

Aunt Wang's work ability is truly remarkable; she managed to clean the room so thoroughly that it looked as if nothing had happened.

"How could you disturb the scene? Where is Ma Jiahua's body?" Cheng Qi angrily confronted the woman of the house.

The hostess, who was serving the beef and tendon stew, was much more composed: "Guests, my daughter doesn't like noise and mess, I'm so sorry."

As for his fallen comrades, perhaps he will have a chance to see him again; who knows?

The hostess smiled, but no one found her kind.

"We lost a companion at your villa, don't you have anything to say?" Su Mu questioned the hostess.

The woman looked regretful: "That's really pitiful, alas, what a poor child."

This behavior enraged Cheng Qi, who grabbed the woman by the collar and said, "There must be something wrong with this villa. You better tell me the truth!"

“Yes.” Su Mu’s attitude was somewhat arrogant. “Your family only has these few elderly, weak, sick, and disabled people, and a child.”

For your own safety, it's best to tell the truth.
