"This kind of dungeon where they are suspicious of each other and kill each other often tests the challenger's psychological quality. Sometimes the challenger's psychological defense has collapsed before the final moment."

"Come on, if these two unlucky things get in, the God of Death will have to crawl away."

## Author's Note:

This time, Shadow World will be shorter than Demon Academy, and it will be a transitional, relaxing vacation dungeon. The next Shadow World will be a slightly larger copy, and a heavyweight player will also appear.

Volume 2: Wild Mountain Blizzard Movie: 074 Cornelia Becomes a Great Detective (2-in-1)

Several men and women gathered in the living room of the villa.

They are almost in groups of three and two, and their positions are relatively scattered.

Neither the dark night sky, the magnificent snow scene, nor the howling cold wind could move them.

Because the situation in the living room is not harmonious.

In the center of the living room is a half-foot-tall mini stage covered in gloss black flooring.

There is a classical grand piano and a dimly lit leather piano chair placed on the stage.

Besides the piano and the chair, there is another person on the stage.

Or rather, it’s a corpse that’s not completely cold yet——

Lying on the piano keyboard was a thin, middle-aged man wearing luxurious clothing.

It looked as if he had just finished playing a powerful piece of music and then fell into a deep sleep of extreme fatigue.

What was horrifying was that a winding stream of blood seeped out from under him, forming a nearly circular pool of blood on the stage floor, with a hideous knife covered in blood lying quietly on it.

Dark red blood flowed along the edge of the middle-aged man's clothes and the piano keyboard. The exposed edge of his left breast pocket was stained red.

This pool of blood reflects the light brown paint bottom of the piano and the thin body of the player who seems to have experienced vicissitudes of life, showing a permeable dark color.

At the same time, the prompts were still being updated, and everyone was watching with bated breath.

[Each challenger has a key that can open the blessed bedroom. 】

[A maximum of two challengers can live in each bedroom. If the number is exceeded, the blessing will become invalid. 】

[Unraveling the puzzles of the ancient house is of great significance to the regular challengers. 】

[One of the regular challengers is a detective. 】

Both Dekan and Cornelia couldn't help but touch their pockets and found that there was indeed a key inside.

In addition, the clothes they wore seemed to have an uncomfortable feeling.

Not ill-fitting.

Just dressed too hastily.

It was as if he had just gotten out of bed, quickly changed his clothes and rushed downstairs.

This must have something to do with the plot background.

Generally speaking, the two of them didn't care about the plot.

but.

Cornelia's costume this time is very special.

She was seen wearing a detective beret and a beige woolen coat.

Even though she didn't do anything, she already attracted everyone's attention.

Dekan next to her seemed to be her assistant.

"Hey, that's not right. Why was this special status given to Cornelia?"

The students on the sidelines were a little puzzled.

"Generally speaking, a special identity does not necessarily have a special ability, but it often indicates something. For example, the identity of a detective in a mystery plot is often given to the person who has the "best chance of revealing the identity of the enemy."

"She will also become a prime target for counter-challengers..."

Immediately afterwards, the most basic plot information began to be updated.

[Starting scene: The owner of this mansion, Sir O'Rourke, played the famous "Blood Resurrection Overture" thirty minutes ago to wake everyone up. 】

[His performance is so wonderful that anyone who knows a little bit about music or even a homeless person who doesn't understand music at all should applaud him. 】

[But no one would praise or appreciate it at that time, because it was six o'clock in the morning, and the residents were all sleeping soundly. They were immersed in the warm quilts, enjoying an extremely comfortable rest. 】

[His gorgeous music woke up the sweet dreams of one guest after another, making them angry, helpless, and painful. 】

[After he played for a while, an angry resident finally couldn't bear it anymore and decided to go to the living room to stop the performance. 】

[But before the resident could turn on the big light in the living room, the sound of the piano had stopped. 】

[The next piercing scream woke everyone up completely. 】

[So gradually, everyone gathered in the living room, shocked, alert, and thinking. 】

[Core plot progress 1/3]

At this point, the prompts finally stopped.

Judging from the mechanics of the shadow world, werewolves and witches who lurk in the dark and possess absolute power have great advantages.

So if you want to find out their identity during the day when you can compete with them, you must use plot clues.

The werewolf and the witch also need to find ways to prevent the decryption in secret.

The owner of the mansion probably didn't commit suicide, but it looked too much like suicide.

But the current clues are difficult to pinpoint who the murderer is.

Then everyone in the living room looked at Cornelia.

He seemed to be waiting for her to speak first.

Cornelia looked at everyone expressionlessly.

He neither spoke nor flinched in his eyes.

Her silence did not make people confused, but made many challengers feel at ease.

He is indeed a calm person with a detective temperament.

It's just that time passes by.

The atmosphere in the living room seemed a bit stiff.

Kenelia looked at Dekan helplessly.

Durkan was slapping his cheeks with both hands, as if trying to wake himself up.

This weather can indeed make people sleepy.

"What's wrong?"

He noticed Cornelia's gaze, met her gaze, looked around again, and immediately understood Cornelia's dilemma.

She was confused and had no idea what was happening.

"Just say what you want to say, just feel free to express yourself. Think of me as your assistant."

Dekan tilted his head slightly and whispered in her ear.

"Um."

Cornelia nodded.

Then she looked at everyone and said sincerely: "I didn't expect anything, please don't count on me."

"call."

Hearing this, an elegant and beautiful girl laughed.

It seemed that because of Cornelia's words, the tense atmosphere in the entire living room relaxed a little.

"No matter what, let's communicate first."

The beautiful girl took over.

She looks about 16 years old, with a slender figure and stunningly beautiful appearance. It is not difficult to guess that she should be a noble in the real world.

"My name is Lilith, a second-year student at Philo Arts Academy. I am good at reasoning about the decryption of the shadow world."

After saying that, she looked at Cornelia, smiled and asked:

"Miss Detective, if you have no clue, would you mind leaving your job to me?"

Kenelia hesitated.

All the challengers present knew that Cornelia, with her identity as a detective, was the dominant player in the room.

Her words carry weight.

Just as she was about to look at Derkan for instructions, Derkan patted her gently on the back.

She immediately understood what Dekan meant——

Play freely and don't look at him.

So Cornelia nodded towards Lilith.

She became a detective out of nowhere, for fear of dragging down all the challengers.

And a smarter-looking guy just came out here and was willing to take over her job.

All I can say is that it couldn’t be better.

The corners of Lilith's mouth curved.

"Thank you for your trust, Miss Detective."

Although the content of her words was very humble, Lilith's tone did not hide the arrogance in her bones.

She seems to be proud of having regained the identity that should belong to her.

"If you don't mind, let's have a casual chat first."

Lilith naturally dominated the conversation.

She knows that there is no need to induce people to reveal their information through questioning, censorship, etc.

Except for those resurrection cultists on the wanted list, the cultists lurking in the dark all have perfect identity excuses.

You can't tell them apart just by talking.

After saying that, she sat on the sofa alone.

But Nelia silently labeled her [eldest lady] in her heart.

And a tall and heroic girl who had been following Lilith was still standing behind the sofa.

Then she is [the eldest lady’s guard].

Everyone seemed to understand that this state of mutual vigilance could not advance the decryption task, and the others gradually began to move closer to the sofa.

"The three of us are knights of the Kingdom of Loland."

A cheerful-looking young man pointed at himself and two companions beside him and said.

Then they started to introduce themselves.

But Nelia couldn't remember the names of so many people at once, so she concluded that they were a three-person team, [Kingdom Knights]*3.

In order to improve the performance at the end of the year, I came to challenge the film world.

It's very real, but Nelia thinks there should be no problem with these three people.

The last two people left were a pair of twin sisters, standard beauties who also looked like students.

"We are third-year students at Brodia Academy. I am an assassin and my sister is a healer."

Although the two of them look similar, the younger sister's eyes look upturned and she looks a bit stronger, while the older sister's eyes have drooped eyes and she looks pitiful.

[Sister Assassin] and [Sister Healer], Cornelia labeled the last two.

Except for Cornelia Dekan Cat Teacher, the other seven people are all foreigners.

But foreigners have their own advantages.
