In the eyes of Heicha and Zhong Ning, Minister Gao had obviously only been locked up in the so-called punishment room for a short while, but when the thin wooden door opened, Minister Gao was lying on the ground in tattered clothes and covered with see more air coming in than going out!
Zhong Ning immediately squatted down to check the situation, "Gao...Haier! Are you okay?!"
Minister Gao shook his head with difficulty, breathing weakly, "Hei Cha, you...are really going to die..."
Heicha stood still, and rarely felt hot on his face when facing someone other than Director Sun.
"Xiaoduo and I came here right after you were locked up. How could we know you would become like this?"
Minister Gao groaned softly, "Punishment House, Punishment House... Does this name sound like a good place..."
"How could you send me in without even consulting me? The head maid is so arrogant..."
As he spoke, Zhong Ning tried to help him up, which immediately caused him to whimper.
"pain--"
Minister Gao grimaced in pain.
Black Tea said coldly: "What happened to you in there? If someone really wants to harm you, don't you know how to use your ability?"
Minister Gao laughed, "Ha... use your abilities. No abilities can be used in this room!" He said as he stood up with the help of Zhong Ning.
"You two don't need to worry about me. I was just beaten up by some unknown 'person'."
"How could he be beaten like this after just a beating?"
Minister Gao said with difficulty: "I've already said that it's probably not a human... It's definitely different from fighting with a human."
As he said this, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Hei Cha's expression changed slightly, "I..."
Minister Gao panted and waved his hands, "Don't give me that... You never bow your head except to the director, and I don't like to hear you bow your head... I know what you think, you think I haven't been into the horror cave for too long, so I'm not reliable..."
He forced himself to smile, revealing his white teeth stained with blood. "But after this, you should know that what happens in the Terror Cave... cannot be inferred by the common sense of our world."
"In the Horror Cave, people not only kill people, but also eat people. They can eat anything."
"The director must have told you a lot about the horror cave, but you have never experienced it yourself."
Zhong Ning supported Minister Gao and couldn't help but open his eyes wide. Minister Hei Cha was actually carrying out the Horror Cave mission for the first time, just like him? !
Minister Gao's smile grew brighter and brighter. "No matter how much theory there is, without actual experience, it is just talk on paper. Otherwise, the director would not have let me be the captain of this operation."
"You are not satisfied in your heart. Not only are you not satisfied that the director did not choose you, but you are also not satisfied that she sent you to the terror cave so easily."
The bloodstained hand was placed on Hei Cha's shoulder, "Girl, there's nothing to be dissatisfied with."
Minister Gao smiled and said, "This shows that the director trusts you, unconditionally."
The cold expression on Hei Cha's face gradually turned into stunned expression.
Zhong Ningjin has not been in the bureau for long, and he knows even less about the relationship between Director Sun and Minister Heicha than Ran Ran.
Therefore, he didn't hear any hidden meaning, and just said happily: "Yes! We are all people trusted by the director!"
Hei Cha gave him a cold look upon hearing this, and Minister Gao laughed out loud, "Ha! This silly boy!"
"The director's trust in Black Tea is different from that in us, do you understand?"
"Forget it, you are still a young boy, you definitely don't understand."
Hei Cha looked unhappy, "Haier, your injury... is very serious."
"It just looks serious..." Minister Gao leaned his whole body on Zhong Ning's thin shoulders, "It's okay."
Hei Cha's expression became even uglier. She knew that Minister Gao said that just to prevent her from blaming herself.
Minister Gao took a few breaths with difficulty and said, "It's all I can do now... We can't heal my injuries."
"In such a big castle, a servant got injured because of a mistake. It's obvious that there's no way to get treatment. The only way is to find Dr. Bai."
After Minister Gao finished speaking, the three of them fell silent. But where should they go to find Doctor Bai?
There is no way to determine the identities of the remaining seven characters and whether they are related to their own characters. It is extremely difficult to find Dr. Bai from these seven people.
Zhong Ning was silent for a while, "Even if we have to use the dumbest method of elimination, we have to find Doctor Bai."
"Gao... Haier, what is your mission? Our missions may be related."
Minister Gao was in so much pain that he couldn't open his eyes. "Side quest?"
"Correct!"
"Found a Tok."
"Tok?" Zhong Ning and Hei Cha looked at each other in bewilderment. "Tok is not among the ten people. Could he be the key figure in this mission?"
Before he finished speaking, there seemed to be a big commotion in the castle, and the three of them heard the panicked voices of the servants.
Black Tea even recognized his own name from it.
"Where's Head Maid Eve? Guests are coming! The Earl's guests arrived a day early!"
Hei Cha reacted immediately, asked Zhong Ning to take good care of Minister Gao, and then left in a hurry.
Rules reminder: play the role carefully.
As the head maid of the castle where Count Armand lived, if she failed to show up at such an important moment and could not give any reasonable explanation, what would be waiting for her might be something more terrifying than the Punishment House.

Before the news came, Ranran was being carefully held by Ah Fu by the material of her sleeves, stroking her delicate rose at an extremely slow speed.
The layers of petals are like an extremely soft brush brushing across Ranran's fingertips.
Toke stood aside, watching with a smile on his face, and even Ah Fu's breathing became cautious.
"Dear Miss Elizabeth, do you feel it?"
Ranran couldn't hear Ah Fu's voice, but she still opened her dim eyes and nodded gently, tears welling up from her beautiful pupils.
"thank you all…"
"I haven't known what flowers look like for a long time."
Upon hearing this, Ahfu and Tok both smiled with relief and heartache.
Miss Elizabeth was not guided by the gestures, but answered Ah Fu's question miraculously.
This illusion made both of them think that Elizabeth had recovered, but they knew it was just a coincidence.
It is precisely because of this that the regret in their hearts will be deeper.
Just as Alfu was about to speak to Tok, he heard Armand's call and his face changed.
"Take care of Miss Elizabeth until I return."
Before he finished speaking, Ah Fu's figure had disappeared, leaving only the confused Toke and Ran Ran staring at each other.
"Flower Eater, I have always only taken care of flowers, never of people, let alone a disabled person like Miss Elizabeth."
"I can't hear or see..." Toke said with a distressed look on his face, "How can I know what she needs?"
Toke's eyes suddenly lit up as he spoke, "How about this, I'll share the things I like with you! It can also help you pass the time before Ah Fu comes back!"
The dark red roses in front of Ranran's eyes suddenly disappeared, large and small blocks of color moved together, and a cool breeze blew on her cheeks.
She knew she was moving again, being pushed.
This time she was able to accept it calmly, "Where are we going?"
Not knowing the other person's identity, Ranran simply didn't address him every time he spoke.
Tok's blue eyes were already full of light, "My secret base!" (End of this chapter)
