Chapter 395 Kunqu Opera "The Tale of the Sea of Sin: Yearning for the Mortal World"[Beautiful Frozen Lady] took the information that Hua Manyun gave them and looked at it as she walked: "I registered a large part of the information on these missing players, and I remember most of it."She picked out seven or eight documents and handed them over: "Big spender sister, take a look at the information of these players first. They are the more important players besides Mr. Chen and Ms. Zhuang."Chemistry professor Fan Ya, female, 53 years old, ID [Books can be bought secondhand], has been missing for 1 day. She loves reading and reads for at least four hours a day.Farmer Lu Taihe, male, 59 years old, ID [Sitting on the edge of the field sunbathing], has been missing for 1 day. He likes to sunbathe. Please pay more attention to items facing the sun.Meteorologist Bi Zhenzhen, female, 57 years old, ID [坐看云起时], has been missing for 1 day. She likes soil, wind, and air....Pei Hening became increasingly alarmed as she flipped through the pages. She hadn't expected the authorities to have gathered so much information on top experts in such a short time: "Have all these uncles and aunts disappeared?"[The Beautiful Frozen Lady] sighed slightly: "Well, it's okay if we can't find the person this time, we still have plenty of time."The two walked up the main staircase and pushed open the door to the second floor. A spacious marble corridor came into view, with carved wooden doors on both sides, each door corresponding to a separate suite.Pei Hening looked at the family oil painting hanging on the wall and walked in along the thick carpet.The painting noticed someone staring at it, shook off non-existent dust from its frame, and lamented that the castle had no servants to brush away the surface dust with a soft wool duster. It seemed to feel a touch of self-pity: "Another little human captivated by my personal charm~"Hearing her affected, sweet voice again, the wall lamp rolled its eyes and said, "I'm just superfluous in illuminating you."Pei Hening stopped in her tracks when she saw the wall lamp suddenly flicker.[The Beautiful Frozen Lady] looked at her strangely: "What's wrong?"Pei Hening pointed to the carved wall lamp and said, "This wall lamp is broken; it has a bad connection."Upon hearing this, the oil painting laughed vehemently: "Hahahaha! Did you hear that? She said you're bad, that you have bad connections."The blanket yawned lazily: "What's wrong with those two? They've been standing on my head and won't move forward. Even if I'm a blanket, they can't bully me like this. I'm so sleepy."[The Beautiful Frozen Lady] stared for a long time but couldn't see the wall lamp flickering. She looked at Pei Hening with a puzzled expression: "Really?"Pei Hening reached out and pushed the wall lamp, nodding earnestly: "Yes.""Hahaha...she actually tickled me! Hahahaha~How could she be so mean? Hahahaha~"The wall lamp was twisting wildly, as if it wanted to be twisted into a pretzel.So, the two of them watched as the wall lamp suddenly jumped off the wall and darted away as if its tail was on fire.[Beautiful Frozen Lady]:..."Hehe, this castle is quite interesting."Pei Hening stared blankly at the receding shadow of the wall lamp, her brows furrowed tightly. The wall lamp, which was hanging perfectly fine on the wall, had somehow jumped down and sped away.The corridor darkened as the wall lamps disappeared, and Pei Hening felt a slight headache. "Let's check each suite one by one. I'll check the left side, and you check the right side."[The Beautiful Frozen Lady] had no objection to the arrangement: "Okay."Pei Hening pushed open the carved door of the VIP suite on the left. The first thing she saw was a small entryway. On the small carved entryway table were a vase, an antique table lamp, a small landscape painting, and a full-length mirror.Two large peonies were placed in the vase. The red peonies were so beautiful and vibrant that they brought a touch of life to the room. Pei Hening carefully examined the variety of the two peonies and found that they were lightly fragrant peonies.She leaned closer but couldn't smell the fragrance of peonies, so she said, "Why are you still putting fake flowers here?"Pei Hening took out disposable gloves from her backpack, put them on, and began searching for'suspicious' items.The vase, which had been quietly pretending to be dead while holding its breath, suddenly broke down when she picked it up, screaming, "Aaaaaah!! What are you doing? What are you doing?! Put it down! The vase is old and can't take any more shocks!"Unfortunately, Pei Hening couldn't hear the vase's scream of breaking down at all."Can't you be a little more mature and composed? So what if you're being picked up? What's there to be afraid of!"The antique desk lamp yawned lazily and spoke slowly."I'm afraid she'll break the bottle!"Pei Hening took the peony flowers out of the vase and gently placed them on the table to check if there was anything inside the vase."Flowers, flowers in the bottle!""Flower~ Flower of the vase~" The full-length mirror said in a cheeky tone, imitating the vase's voice.Pei Hening gently tapped the vase with her hand: "Vase? What if I accidentally break you?"The vase wailed, "Did you hear that? This is a threat, a blatant threat! My life is over!"The full-length mirror spontaneously provided background music: "A fleeting dream of wealth and glory has turned to ashes."Pei Hening raised the vase above her head, counted down from three, and then let go..."Aaaaaah!!! Bottle's so scared—"Pei Hening caught the vase a second before it hit the ground.With a soft "poof," tiny hands and feet sprouted from the vase. It kicked and thrashed at Pei Hening, then scrambled out of the suite.The full-length mirror stared in disbelief: "Where did the vase go?"The antique desk lamp subconsciously chimed in, "Go get your hair done, didn't they just pluck away its fancy hair?"As Pei Hening pulled her hand back in pain, the vase disappeared. She laughed in exasperation; having arms and legs made it so fast!She didn't have time to hold onto the escaped vase. She continued to check each vase one by one, using every trick in the book—threats, seduction, everything—but she still couldn't find anything strange. It was as if the vase that had run away with long legs was just her imagination. If it weren't for the two peonies that were still on the table, pulled out of the vase, she would have thought she was seeing a ghost.Pei Hening casually stuffed the flowers on the table into the lamp cap of the antique table lamp and walked forward along the carpet.The full-length mirror looked at the antique lamp with flowers on its head and laughed out loud: "Look at me, look at how you look now."Antique table lamp:...Pei Hening entered the room and immediately saw the crocheted Spider-Man doll hanging next to the silk bed curtains of the largest carved bed.The little doll is exquisitely crocheted, with eyes made of two top-quality magic gems, shimmering and beautiful.She was certain the Spider-Man toy wasn't a player; the magic on it was practically solidifying.Pei Hening silently took out [unnecessary explanation] and put it on. There was no reaction, so she actively infused it with magic power to use it.[Late Gift] (**): A birthday gift from ** to **, arriving a thousand years too late. A flower that misses its blooming season, no matter how vibrant its bloom, will never enter the next cycle of life. After using this item ******(What are you doing? Don't shove dangerous things in front of me! I'm scared too!)(Where is this? Let's go quickly, it's scary.)The objects in the room were all observing Pei Hening, making a great commotion."What do you think this little human is up to? He keeps staring at that pretty little Spider-Man.""I don't know. By the way, who hung this little Spider-Man here?""It must be the master. The master came to the castle last night.""Something's gotten in here! Look!""It's a ball, how did it get here?"As Pei Hening was contemplating whether to go closer to examine the little Spider-Man keychain, something bumped into her leg.She looked down and saw the round ball with tiny hands and feet that had been knocked around and was now dizzy. She quickly grabbed it and said, "Look what I found!""How did she manage to catch the ball!""There's only one truth: this human is the legendary witch, and she's going to capture us! Everyone, hide quickly!"The ribbons that were carefully tying the curtains spoke blankly, "Why did she capture us?""You don't understand, you're definitely doing something bad!"The ribbon spoke again: "How are we going to hide? I still need to tie a curtain around it."Pei Hening was completely unaware that the objects in the room were tickling her; her attention was entirely focused on the strangely shaped little ball in her hand.The strange little ball, only the size of a ping-pong ball, with arms and legs, first pretended to be dead. After lying there for a while, it realized that Pei Hening had no intention of letting it go, and became angry and fought back fiercely!So Pei Hening watched helplessly as the little ball, with its round body, tried to wobble and collide with her."Beep beep—"[WeChat steps are zero]: Sister, have you seen a strange little ball with arms and legs? If you have, please contact me.[DripDrip]: [Image][DibiDibi]: You mean it?[WeChat steps are zero]: Yes, yes, where are you now? I'm coming to find you. It should be someone I knew before.Pei Hening pinched the small ball, stopping its determination to 'take it down with it,' and sent the address over.Three minutes later, [WeChat steps are zero] came running over, leading a bald, smoky-voiced kitten.The bald, smoky-voiced kitten held its tail high, puffed out its chest, and swaggered around on the thick carpet, as if it were a lion patrolling its territory.Pei Hening handed the strange little ball to [WeChat Steps are Zero], and glanced at the bald, smoky-voiced kitten out of the corner of her eye. She saw it with its tiny, blood-red mouth tilting its head and biting the hem of the curtain.[WeChat steps are zero] Grabbing the ball, he noticed the bald, smoky-voiced kitten's actions and was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He scooped the little bald kitten up and said, "Sis, I'll take it home first. I'll treat you to dinner next time."Pei Hening nodded: "Okay."She didn't touch the little Spider-Man in the end. After checking and confirming that the characteristics of the items inside did not match the features recorded in the information Hua Manyun had given her, she left the room.——Third floor, art gallery.[I can bury you in money] I don't know where he got a costume from, and he put it on and gave a performance to a music box.The girl in the oil painting hanging on the wall asked in confusion, "This human is so strange, what is he doing?"The aromatherapy diffuser on the shelf seemed to wish it were completely deaf: "Don't you think it sounds awful?""The lyrics are good, and the story is good too, but his singing is not good, although his expressions are so cute.""So lively!"[I can bury you in money] completely ignored the conversation between these items and continued its trembling performance: "...How can enemies become lovers? They'll just die in front of the King of Hell...""The Tale of the Sea of Sin: Yearning for the Mortal World" is truly difficult. The singing style is tender and melodious, the movements are rich and varied, and it also requires the performance of whisks and water sleeves. There is no co-star throughout the entire performance, and all the emotions must be supported by oneself."Oh, let him be! We only see the living suffering, but we've never seen a dead ghost in shackles..."I learned this song specifically back when I was chasing after "The Mermaid on the Run". It took me a long time to learn it, but I have to say it's pretty good... better than being an eyesore and an ear-piercing jerk."...I am a delicate woman, not a man."The little figure on the music box, dressed in a white ballet tutu, had a pretty, delicate, smiling face that had somehow become wrinkled. Hearing this, she finally couldn't help but mutter, "Ugh, so ugly, what a waste of a good music book."It tried to run with its short legs.Seeing this, [I'll bury you in money], who was performing while keeping an eye on the music box, grabbed it and chuckled, "Hmph, do you think I can't handle you? Got caught, huh?"When the other creatures noticed [I'll bury you in money]'s actions, they trembled with fear. "How terrifying! This strange person is going to grab us!""Everyone, please don't move, waaaaah!""Was it because his singing was so awful that the child ran away?""I don't think so. I think he sang pretty well."The little figure in the white ballet dress, held in someone's hand, struggled incessantly, kicking, pinching, and hitting them clumsily."Be gentle, you're being too harsh."[I'll bury you in money] He grabbed her with one hand, and with the other hand took off his costume, carefully folded it, and stuffed it into his backpack. Looking at the little girl in the ballet dress, his smile slowly widened: "Xiao Yu, hehe."The little ballerina didn't care about big or small fish; she wished she could grow a mouth and bite this silly, grinning fool.[I could bury you in money] He grinned and took many photos of the little figure in the ballet dress, wishing he could record a 360-degree video.The little ballerina in the tutu was initially resisting, but after realizing she couldn't, she crossed her arms and angrily pointed her round, full head at him, saying, "I can bury you in money."He reached out and touched the cheek of the little ballerina in the tutu, and said with a smile, "Xiaoyu, let's go back."The little ballerina thought for a moment but decided to run away. She started struggling again: "What little fish, big fish? You're the fish, your whole family are fish."[I can bury you in money] Completely unaware of the little ballerina's thoughts, he pinched the ballet skirt, glanced at the music box again, and said, "Do you still want your stage?"He was worried that the little figure in the ballet skirt wouldn't understand, so he pointed to the base of the music box. The little figure ignored him and turned its head away angrily.Seeing this, he scooped up the music box base and carried it down, saying, "Xiaoyu, how was my performance? Did you like it? Has your singing improved?""How about I perform another piece for you? I didn't finish the previous one."
