There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game-Chapter 655

Chapter 655: Chapter 562 The Joys and Sorrows of People Are Not Interconnected_3 Chapter 655: Chapter 562 The Joys and Sorrows of People Are Not Interconnected_3 At that moment, Tiezhu beckoned to the dog with a gesture.

The Black Wolfhound stood up and ambled over lazily, its tongue occasionally lapping as if it were savoring something.

“I’m looking for a sister, about this tall, this heavy, do you know where she is?” Tiezhu whispered, gesturing as he spoke.

“…” The Black Wolfhound was unmoved.

“It’s just…”

Tiezhu grew anxious, feeling that the dog had not understood his gestures, and after thinking for a moment, an idea suddenly struck him!

He quickly said, “I mean the sister who also tasted the Osmanthus Cake I made; you know, the flavor of that Osmanthus Cake!”

“…!”

Thus, it seemed the dog also had an epiphany.

The Black Wolfhound wagged its tail and took the lead, running ahead to guide him and even alerting him to avoid people passing through the yard.

...

Tiezhu followed through two more dog holes and finally stopped in front of a room.

But there were still two people guarding the front of the room.

Tiezhu made a gesture to the dog and then circled to the back of the house, and with a gentle push of a finger, he discovered the window was actually unlocked.

So, he gingerly opened the window, moving so slowly that he was afraid to make the slightest noise.

When both window frames were pushed open.

Tiezhu peered into the room.

No candles were lit inside.

But with the help of moonlight shining through the window, one can faintly see on the step bed with the White Silk Bed Canopy, a girl in red bridal gown was trussed up with heavy ropes, and her head was even covered with a red bridal veil.

He made no sound but clambered through the window, stepping on the Black Wolfhound’s back.

After stealthily approaching the bride in the bridal dress, Tiezhu suddenly lifted her red bridal veil, staring into a pair of frightened eyes.

The girl’s eyes held fear, despair, panic, and astonishment upon seeing the young man.

Clearly, she hadn’t expected someone to actually find her.

As Tiezhu untied her, he whispered, “Sister, don’t make a sound, I’ll get you out of here.”

Once the gag was removed from her mouth, the girl took several quick breaths.

She whispered softly, “There are a lot of people outside.”

“The ancestral hall caught fire; everyone is busy trying to put it out; we can take the chance to escape,” said Tiezhu.

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of hope sparked in the girl’s eyes once more.

The two then left through the window, and when the girl saw the fierce-looking Black Wolfhound at the wall, she almost cried out, but she quickly covered her mouth in time.

Tiezhu reassured her, “Little Black is very well-behaved, it won’t bite.”

The girl looked perplexed, “You seem to have a good relationship with this family’s dog?”

While observing the surroundings, Tiezhu replied, “Little Black actually also likes to play outside; it’s just that the adults want him to stay here to watch the yard.

I’ve seen him run into the mountains several times to catch wild chickens.”

The girl: “…”

The Black Wolfhound smartly led the way, and the two of them miraculously avoided the people who frequently crossed the yard, dangerously squeezing through dog holes to escape.

However, as soon as they emerged, Tiezhu turned to see the Black Wolfhound also trying to squeeze out with them.

This seriously frightened Tiezhu, who quickly pushed the dog’s head back.

“You can’t!

If they notice you’re missing, they’ll definitely search everywhere!

Go back!

Go back now!” he said urgently.

“Woo…” whined the Black Wolfhound softly.

“I’ll take you up the mountain to play tomorrow, but for now, you must hurry back!”

As the Black Wolfhound tried to squeeze through, Tiezhu firmly held its head back.

Witnessing this scene, the girl grew anxious, about to suggest that they take it with them.

She had already been rescued, so what was the worry about a dog?

But just then, shouts erupted from inside the courtyard.

“What’s going on here?”

People from the Wang Family approached, finding it odd to see the dog whimpering and wagging its tail at the corner, and started to come closer while asking questions.

Hearing the noise, Tiezhu, no longer caring about the dog, grabbed the girl beside him and ran.

As he ran, he looked back and saw that the Black Wolfhound hadn’t gleefully followed and breathed a sigh of relief.

…

The two rapidly darted through the alleys.

The girl was still wearing the cumbersome red bridal gown, with no time to change, she grabbed the hem of her dress and gasped for air as she followed.

There were still people guarding the entrance of the village.

Tiezhu adeptly took her on a detour under the foot of South Mountain, pushed through the thickets, squeezed past, and took the mountain road to arrive at the other side of the village entrance.

But at the foot of South Mountain ran a meandering river, inevitably separating Osmanthus Village like a chasm.

There was a wooden bridge at the village entrance, but not here.

“Sister, can you swim?” Tiezhu asked, turning back to her.

“I…

I can, a bit.”

Gasping for air, the girl rushed her words, “Hurry up, they’ll have noticed by now!”

However, just as she finished speaking, a clamor rang out from afar.

Standing on the hillside, one could dimly see torches lit on the village road with crowds surging.

They had been discovered!

They had been discovered!

Startled, the girl slipped and tumbled down the small hill, plunging into the river, coughing as she choked on water.

Tiezhu was also startled by her, and hurriedly slid down the hillside after her, straining to pull her up from the water.

“I’m fine, let’s get moving!”

The girl, not daring to stop, couldn’t help trembling all over as she spoke through shivers, her arms still determinedly attempting to paddle toward the opposite bank of the river.

Fortunately, she really could swim a little.

But just as they reached the middle of the river, not far from the opposite bank appeared the glow of torches, cluster after cluster, like stars scattered in the night sky.

Then, suddenly, someone shouted out loud.

“Over there!”
