I am the savior in the horror world with my money skills
Chapter 122 The Bound Lady
Chapter 122 The Bound Lady
Just like Philina said, she was unhappy, and the source of her unhappiness was these things.
The etiquette course ended in this strange silence. The next instrument course was piano, but Jing Zhao was not very proficient in piano. He only learned some simple songs when he was in other dimensions.
But it is obviously not easy to teach Philena at this level.
The players sat together and discussed what to do next.
"It's a sinister game. We don't know anything about it. How can we train an excellent noble lady?"
"By the way, have you found out everything? To train outstanding noble ladies, some people will come to visit them in ten days. I guess the standard for completing the task is to at least allow those noble ladies to find nobles with equal or better family backgrounds during the visit, right?"
Jing Zhao also agreed with this because she thought so too.
"That should be the case. This is probably how the standard of excellence is determined. This is all we have found out."
Jing Zhao looked at the time. They only had fifteen minutes and would have to go back to class soon.
"It's just that these children are too biased in their studies. Even though I don't understand these things, I can see it."
Such a bias in one subject is definitely not up to standard.
Jing Zhao thought so too. It seemed to be true at the moment. If it was the previous copy, Jing Zhao would definitely want to take these ladies to escape from their bondage and shackles. Now he has to think twice and discuss with these players before taking any action.
"Do you think there will be deviations in this game?"
Destroying the copy is also a kind of victory in disguise.
"I don't know if we will be judged as the winner if we destroy the instance. So, let's test the waters with the first instance and win back with the next two instances. Although this is a bit risky, our level of skill is not enough to complete this task."
When Jing Zhao heard this, she was somewhat persuaded. This was actually her idea from the beginning.
Seeing everyone's hesitation, Jing Zhao also said: "That person said that cracking the dungeon will win the game, but he didn't say that completing the dungeon task will get you out of the game. We can indeed make a bet and see if everyone dares to do it."
The two said this, and the others bowed their heads to think about it. Seeing that class was about to start, they also left a message: "Wait for us to think about it, and we will reply to you at noon."
This matter definitely requires careful consideration. Jing Zhao was not in a hurry and returned to the teacher's room and took Philina to the instrument room.
There was a piano there. The window was open at this time, and the breeze blew in with the fragrance of flowers. Philena closed her eyes and enjoyed it for a while, then opened her eyes and sat on the piano stool with a lonely expression on her face.
"How is your piano playing?" Jing Zhao asked.
"Not very good. My second sister is the best at playing the piano in the family."
Jing Zhao nodded and motioned for her to play a song according to the music score.
Philina was not lying, she really didn't play the piano very well, Jing Zhao could hear it.
After playing the song, Philina returned to her reserved state.
Jing Zhao sat on the piano bench, "Today the sun is shining brightly. It's such a bright spring day, so let's play a spring song."
The song "Spring Morning" was the more difficult one for Jing Zhao to learn, but she still remembered how to play it.
It was also a spring day when they learned this piece of music. Jing Zhao's fingers danced on the black and white keys of the piano, and the sound of the piano was melodious. Philena closed her eyes and enjoyed the music, and she felt that the surroundings became quiet.
Philina's restless heart was also soothed by the piano music, she liked this song very much.
"The teacher is amazing. I can feel the emotions in it."
It was also the first time that Jing Zhao received such high praise. She smiled and said, "I can teach you."
These are the only songs she knows, and this one is better than the others.
"I want to learn."
Interest is the best teacher. As long as you want to learn, Jing Zhao will teach her calmly first. After the players have considered it at noon, she will decide what to do next.
In this instrument class, Jing Zhao only taught this one piece to pass the time.
After killing time, it was almost time for lunch. Nothing happened on this first day of class.
Jing Zhao walked out and saw that one of the players had a scratch on his face.
"What's wrong with you?" Jing Zhao asked.
"Don't mention it, because Marian found out that I couldn't play the piano, and she pointed a finger at me, and when I moved back I got scratched by her nails."
He was really unlucky as he met the second young lady among the seven young ladies. The second young lady was not good at anything else but was very good at playing the piano. She also had a bad and spoiled personality. If it weren't for this mission, he wouldn't want to bother with such a person.
The player reached out and touched his face. Fortunately, it was just a skin break and it wasn't too serious.
There is still some time before the meal, and the other players have already thought about it.
"We thought, let's take a gamble."
Just like destroying the copy before, create a deviation and destroy this copy directly.
If it is not destroyed, in case they fail, this copy will have to continue to attract players.
So they unanimously decided to see if destroying the copy would count as a win. No matter what the result was, it would be good.
When the agreement was signed, it only said that if humans succeeded, the horror game would disappear, but it did not specify what would happen to humans if the horror game succeeded.
Jing Zhao thought that it was nothing more than the horror game continuing to rule their lives.
He was a little confused as to which side this Dao was on.
With this suspicion, Jing Zhao waited until dinner time, put on his invisibility cloak, and prepared to go see the young ladies and the master and mistress who had not shown up.
She wasn't going to eat the food here anyway, so the food in her backpack could keep her fed and clothed.
When they arrived at the dining table, the seven young ladies were all present, but the master at the main table was late. The butler came over and whispered, "Madam is not feeling well. The meal has been sent upstairs."
The master frowned: "Feeling unwell again?"
The butler nodded.
"If you feel unwell, go see a doctor. Why keep holding it in?"
After complaining, the master started eating with his knife and fork first, and then the ladies below started to move.
Jing Zhao stood here and watched. At the dinner table, two rows of noble ladies moved in unison, as if they were reproduced in unison.
creak-
The knife made a sharp sound as it scraped across the plate, and Philena turned pale.
"I'm sorry, father." Philina quickly admitted her mistake.
The master looked up at Philena.
"Philena."
Philina fell to her knees with a thud.
Others looked on with either pity or indifference, but none of them offered to help.
"Where did you learn table manners?"
Philina couldn't hold back her tears and bit her lower lip.
"sorry."
The master waved his hand and said, "Go back to your room. When you have learned the table manners, you can come back for dinner."
Philina didn't dare to disobey and left quickly.
The housekeeper took Philena back to the room, but she was sent back after eating only a few bites.
"Miss, you still have classes in the afternoon, please don't forget the time."
Philina nodded, watching the door close, suppressed bitter emotions spreading in her heart.
Jing Zhao returned to their restaurant. When the player saw Jing Zhao coming back, he asked her what she saw.
Jing Zhao recounted what had just happened, and the players were all confused after hearing it. "Isn't this life too depressing?"
They couldn't imagine themselves living in that kind of environment, they would have gone crazy long ago.
It was hard for Philena to bear it, and she had to go hungry until the evening.
"It's quite pitiful."
Although they are strange creatures, they are indeed pitiful when they don't reveal their vicious side.
Jing Zhao's sympathy only lasted for a moment, and it disappeared in the next instant.
"If we kill that master, will we be liberated?"
Players come up with bold ideas.
"Jia Xiaocheng, you are too bold."
It's only the first day and he's already planning to kill the master. That master should be considered one of the BOSSes.
"I just said whatever I thought, but in the end this master will definitely be dealt with. It's just a matter of time."
Jing Zhao was helpless. "Let's wait and see. Isn't there a rule that says you can't go out after 10 p.m.? I plan to go and take a look tonight."
It would be much easier to move around with the invisibility cloak, so I could see why the butler said that.
Jing Zhao didn't care about the exploration degree or anything like that. She just wanted to see if she could trigger the deviation degree and then destroy this copy.
During nap time, the players were invited back to their rooms by the maids and were told to have a good rest.
When he arrived at the room, Jing Zhao felt a slight sleepiness. He didn't know where this sleepiness came from, but he could still bear it.
Looking at the people who were still busy below from the window, Jing Zhao decided to take a break and get enough rest before taking action tonight.
There was no telling when the sick lady would show up, and the master’s attitude was not very good.
After waking up from a nap, it was almost time for afternoon classes, so Jingzhao went to wash his face to wake himself up.
This copy is a bit too quiet. I haven’t seen any danger so far, except for the player whose face was scratched by Marian.
If the lady you teach is found to be not good at this course, such a situation will occur.
Jing Zhao silently took note of this. He had vocal music class in the afternoon, another subject he was not good at.
She came to the teacher's room where Philina was waiting. Philina always seemed to come early.
"Did you sleep well?"
Philina's eyes were a little swollen, probably because she had been crying.
"Very good, where's the teacher?"
"I'm fine too."
Jing Zhao took out a few pieces of bread and handed them to Philina as if by magic. "Eat something. The maid said you didn't eat much at noon. If you don't eat, you won't have the energy to attend class."
Seeing the food Jing Zhao handed over, Philina finally couldn't help crying out loud.
Jing Zhao knew why she was crying, but he did not comfort her. He just waited for her to finish crying.
"Teacher, I'm really tired. I feel so useless and always make my father angry."
It's obvious that the sisters can do it so well, but she always makes mistakes.
This sense of gap, coupled with the suffocating feeling of Philena's father, makes it no wonder that Philena has become like this.
"It's okay. You'll feel better if you cry. Just take it easy. We're not in a hurry."
Jing Zhao still spoke so gently, without any intention of blaming Philena. Philena felt that the teacher was different from other people, and subconsciously began to rely on Jing Zhao.
Jing Zhao noticed this about Philina and knew that he had done the right thing.
Philina's emotions gradually calmed down, and she remembered that this class was a vocal lesson, but her throat was a little dry from crying.
Jing Zhao went out and asked the maid to bring in some tea, while Philina took small bites of bread.
"You are young, so you learn slower than others. Don't worry, you will catch up in the future."
Philena nodded. She was indeed hungry. She was sent back to her room after eating only a few bites at noon, and she cried for a long time again.
The maid brought in the tea, and Philina ate the bread and drank a few sips of tea, and she felt completely well again.
"Thank you, teacher."
In this family, none of her blood relatives care about her, and it seems that the only one who cares about her is her teacher.
The teacher is different from the previous ones.
Philina was a little shy and she didn't know how to express her gratitude.
Seeing that she was ready, Jing Zhao let her start the lesson, mainly letting Philena sing, since there were books anyway.
Some time is wasted just on eating and drinking tea during a class, so there is not much time left.
After finishing the vocal lesson, when Jing Zhao went out, he saw Jing Zhao coming here with a doctor in a white coat.
They should be here to see the lady. Jing Zhao watched them go upstairs.
In the living room, several young ladies who had just come out also saw the doctor.
"It's Dr. Jerome." Marianne recognized the man.
Philina also saw it. They knew that their mother was sick, but their father did not allow them to go and see her, saying that he was afraid of passing on the disease.
Speaking of which, Philina hasn't seen her mother for several days.
"Now that Dr. Jerome is here, will mother's illness be cured?" Philena asked.
The other sisters nodded and said, of course it was true, it wasn't like mother was seriously ill.
"I hope mom gets better soon."
Compared to her father, her mother is much gentler, but she also has to listen to her father. When Philena thought of this, she felt a little sad.
They didn't stay here for too long and went back to their rooms to read or something.
Jing Zhao put on an invisibility cloak and went upstairs with a few players. They wanted to see Dr. Jerome and his wife.
I went there at a very inexpensive time, as the door was just open and Dr. Jerome had already finished his consultation and was prescribing medicine.
The master didn't show up, so the butler was busy here.
"Just take some medicine as I said and take good care of her."
The lady on the bed said thank you, and the housekeeper followed Jerome to get the medicine.
The players saw the lady, a thin and beautiful woman who didn't seem to have much attack power.
Nothing could be seen here, so they followed Doctor Jerome, who prescribed some medicine and handed it to the housekeeper, who asked the maid to get some water.
"Thank you doctor."
The butler smiled and sent the person out.
Jerome was an outsider after all and couldn't stay here for too long. The players took a look and didn't know what disease the lady had. The list was always held by the housekeeper.
Since the door was closed, they went back to discuss the matter.
"That lady looks much more normal than the master."
Jia Xiaocheng sighed and said that he didn't know why, but he always felt that there were no normal people in this family.
