"I don't know." Yumu took a sip of tea and said calmly: "Maybe it's raining, maybe it's necessary to be rained, maybe it's necessary to hold an umbrella in the rain? It's very possible, let's find out what it is. Just known."

Li Jingjing took a cold breath: "No, if that's the case, wouldn't it mean that the death condition was triggered inexplicably when you didn't know what was going on? Then I guess Zhang Mingsheng died unjustly, why was he even targeted? I don’t even know.”

Yumu said nothing.

"Then where are we going to find out now? Should we ask Yu Zhen and the others? If we ask again, they will become suspicious, right?" Li Jingjing asked Yu Mu.

Yumu narrowed his eyes, and his lips curled up in a fleeting arc: "Of course there are still people asking."

"who?"

"Butler Zhong." The girl's tone was cold and deep.

Li Jingjing was shocked: "Zhong, Butler Zhong? Are we going to find him? Are you sure that... um... he will tell us?" Li Jingjing almost blurted out this 'what the hell is a ghost?'

"Of course." Yumu: "Have you forgotten, when we first came here, who told us not to go out at night?"

Li Jingjing blurted out without thinking: "Butler Zhong."

After saying the words, Li Jingjing was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Yumu. Yumu's eyes were dark and he looked at her without saying a word.

Seeing this, Li Jingjing swallowed: "But didn't he threaten us?"

"What if it's not a threat, but a reminder?" Yumu asked.

Li Jingjing was stunned for a moment, "T-hint?"

Yumu looked at her calmly.

After being silent for half a second, Li Jingjing finally sighed from the bottom of his heart: "I'm going!"

"Then let's ask Butler Zhong now?" Li Jingjing stood up and stretched while talking, "By the way, let's learn more about today's prompt."

The two left the room together. Li Jingjing suddenly remembered something and asked Yumu quickly: "Wait a minute Yumu, I suddenly remembered something. If the death condition is triggered, you will die, right? What if there are two or three people on the same day at the same time? What about triggering a death condition together?”

Yu Mu's voice had no fluctuation: "Die together."

Li Jingjing snorted coldly, "Then...if it's like me, and she fails as a target on the first day, and I trigger the death condition the second time, she will still come to me, right?!"

"Yes." Yumu nodded.

Li Jingjing shuddered completely this time, "There's nothing to be thankful for at all! Even if nothing happens this time, next time Bao Buqi does something by mistake and triggers the death condition, isn't that right? You will still die!"

Thinking that the female ghost that night might come to find her, Li Jingjing's legs trembled with fear.

Yumu just said lightly, "Avoid if you can."

——

The two walked around the Wu Mansion and finally found Butler Zhong.

Butler Zhong seemed to have just come back from somewhere, and there was no trace of surprise on his face when he was intercepted by Yu Mu.

Butler Zhong bowed and saluted, his face painted pink and white with red paint, a round hat covering his round head, and a long braid hanging behind his back.

"Good afternoon, ladies, but are you going to have lunch?" Butler Zhong's voice was low and hoarse, his tone was quiet and gentle, as dull and gloomy as an old bell.

Only then did they realize that time had passed in a blink of an eye, from morning to noon.
