Chapter 137 The person you are looking for
The housekeeper turned around subconsciously.

However, there was no one behind him.

"You're lying..." The housekeeper was about to get angry, but was suddenly hit in the head by Noon.

Lu Yao swung the iron bucket and hit the housekeeper on the back of the head.

The next second, the housekeeper was seen falling down.

At the same time, Lu Yao clearly felt that the rose behind him was shaking even more.

She walked over, rummaged through the butler's body for a while, and found several keys and a notebook.

The keys should open certain rooms, but Lu Yao couldn't tell. As for the notes, after Lu Yao opened them, he found that they were blank.

But as a manor housekeeper, why should he carry a blank notebook with him?

Lu Yao flipped through his notes again, and after making sure he found nothing, he put the notes back together with the keys.

The housekeeper woke up quickly. He touched his head and looked at Lu Yao with a frown.

It seemed to Lu Yao that the other party was sure that he had knocked him unconscious, but he had no evidence.

Even if he spoke directly, Lu Yao would definitely not admit it.

But none of this actually matters.

This is a manor, and it couldn't be easier for a housekeeper to deal with a gardener who comes to work.

But the butler did not do this.

The reason for this is probably related to why he suddenly appeared here.

Lu Yao looked over with a smile, while the housekeeper gritted his teeth silently.

After he was sure that he was not missing anything, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, Leal has returned.

He didn't find the butler and was a little depressed at first, but when he saw the butler standing in the rose garden, his eyes lit up.

"Mr. Butler, I was just looking for you." Lear walked up quickly.

The housekeeper was worrying about Lu Yao when he saw Li'er appear. He turned to look at Li'er with a heavy face.

Leal eventually got some deworming pills from the housekeeper.

"I'm going to give it a try." Lear said, walking towards the withered rose.

Lu Yao looked at it and didn't follow him.

Her plan has not changed, which is to go to the depths of the rose garden and take a look.

While Leer was checking the flower soil, Lu Yao walked towards the depths alone.

The rose garden is very big. Lu Yao spent an afternoon yesterday to complete the watering work. Unfortunately, he was in such a hurry that Lu Yao didn't even have the chance to observe it carefully.

In addition, as soon as they entered here, they seemed to be affected by some kind of power, making them involuntarily devote themselves to their work, and naturally they had no time to do anything else.

Ten minutes later, Lu Yao came to a huge rose tree.

Most of the roses in the rose garden are ornamental objects transplanted here, but the rose tree in front of you seems to have grown here originally, and it even gives people the impression that it has existed far longer than this manor. illusion.

Lu Yao narrowed his eyes and looked over.

The rose tree in front of me is five meters high, which is obviously not the height that normal roses can grow to.

Its branches and leaves spread out to the surroundings, blocking the sunlight above and casting a huge shadow.

At this time, Lu Yao was standing in the shadow.

She raised her head and looked at the rose tree in front of her, and saw the branches above suddenly approaching her direction.

The rose branch with thorns suddenly approached Lu Yao, as if it would prick Lu Yao's skin in the next second.

However, the moment it approached, Lu Yao quickly retreated, and then a huge ax appeared in Lu Yao's hand.

She waved the ax in her hand, planning to send the rose tree away as soon as it attacked her.

Perhaps shocked by Lu Yao's actions, the rose tree suddenly became quiet.

Just as Lu Yao was about to get closer, he heard Lier's exclamation from behind him.

"Oh my God, what are you going to do?"

Lear's scream came, and he looked at Lu Yao, who was holding an ax and rushing towards the rose tree. "Do you know what you are doing?" Lear roared.

Li'er didn't give Lu Yao a chance to explain. He pushed the person out and signaled Lu Yao not to get close to the tree again.

Lu Yao turned around with the ax and found that the roses around him began to tremble after seeing her, so he simply found a place without roses to rest.

Lunch break.

Lu Yao originally wanted to ask Chi Rui and others about the situation, but found that she and Yan Yan were the only two people who came to the restaurant to dine.

"Where are the others?" Lu Yao looked at the empty dining table and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

"I don't know." Yan Yan spread her hands, wouldn't they feel tired and hungry after working all morning?

Yan Yan's job is to clean Qi Manor, but unfortunately she is not assigned to clean the guest room, but is responsible for cleaning the living room.

Therefore, the original plan to check out Qi Yuan and Zhang Li's rooms could only come to nothing.

Until the end of the lunch break, Lu Yao could not see Chi Rui or the others.

In the afternoon, Lu Yao appeared in the rose garden again, but this time Leer did not allow Lu Yao to get closer.

He threw a pair of scissors to Lu Yao and motioned her to trim some branches nearby.

Lu Yao, who turned into a gardener, looked at the tools in his hands and turned around silently.

There must be some secret in the rose garden, but it's a pity that she can't get close to it now.

At the same time, in a bedroom in the manor.

The Duke slowly opened his eyes.

He rubbed his forehead and seemed to have no energy.

The butler approached from the door, holding a glass of water.

My Lord Duke has always had the habit of taking a nap, but he didn't seem to sleep peacefully today.

"Butler, how many people are here this time?"

"Reporting to your lord, the Duke, there are seven people in total this time. But now there are only five left." The butler said and suddenly smiled.

Those who do not follow the rules do not deserve the preferential treatment of the Duke.

The Duke nodded, and then as if he thought of something, he touched his forehead, with a hint of expectation in his eyes, "Is there the person I'm looking for?"

The housekeeper hesitated for a moment, "It's not certain yet. Please give me a little more time, Your Majesty the Duke, and I will reply to you as soon as possible."

The Duke frowned, stood up and walked to the window, looking out at the endless sea of ​​flowers.

"Be quick, I don't like my hopes being dashed again, I need to find him."

The butler noticed the change in the Duke's mood and immediately agreed.

He will definitely help his Lord Duke find that person as soon as possible.

No matter what method is used.

……

into the night.

Lu Yao still didn't see Chi Rui or anyone else during dinner, and she and Yan Yan were the only ones left at the table.

Because even Lear was missing in the afternoon.

Lu Yao tried to go to the rose garden to look for Lier, but there was no trace of Lier.

He seems to be missing.

But the rose garden seemed to have been taken care of.

In front of the dining table, Lu Yao and Yan Yan looked at each other, and they both caught a glimpse of solemnity in each other's eyes.

"Should we go find them?" Yan Yan suddenly asked.

Because there were only two people left, Yan Yan did not lower her voice.

Her nerves were tense now, and if she didn't see anyone else show up, she suspected that she would be on the verge of collapse soon.

Lu Yao was silent for a moment, then nodded.

It's time to find out what happened.
