"Alright, you can all return to your rooms now."
After the vote concluded, everyone returned to their respective rooms.
However, Furina, extremely displeased, sought out Xavier, full of complaints.
"I'm so mad! Why did they vote for me?!"
Furina came to Xavier's room, flopped onto his bed, and kicked her feet back and forth.
Xavier took a bite of his Apple and said, "I wouldn't know. Maybe it's because your speaking skills are too poor, and you can't make others believe you're a good person."
Furina sat up again, fuming, "My speaking skills are clearly excellent! It's all Eula's fault for saying I might be a Werewolf saved by Cyno!"
At this point, Furina finally realized something and immediately asked Xavier.
"Xavier, tell me who the Werewolf is! Eula is a Werewolf, right?!"
"The Werewolves are…"
Xavier was about to tell Furina the answer, but Furina immediately interrupted him.
"Don't tell me, don't tell me! Let me guess myself."
"Eula must be a Werewolf. As for Lyney… he should be a Werewolf too, right?"
"Counting Cyno, three have appeared. So the last one is…"
"Oh my goodness, it can't be Hachijou Shenzi, can it? No, no, she's the Witch! Could she be impersonating someone?"
"Hmm~ I think it's very likely Bennett. He's been playing dumb and even helping Eula speak!"
"It could also be Xiangling…"
The more Furina guessed, the further off she got, yet she completely forgot about Hu Tao, the last one.
"Alright, alright, stop guessing wildly here. If you want to know, come out with me tonight and knock on doors."
Furina's eyes lit up after hearing this: "Okay, I'll help you knock on doors!"
After saying that, Furina eagerly pulled Xavier out the door.
When they knocked on Hu Tao's door, Furina was very surprised.
"Huh? How could it be you, Hu Tao? You clearly didn't say anything very useful."
Furina thought carefully. Besides saying Itto was a Werewolf, Hu Tao didn't seem to have done anything else.
"Hehe, true Werewolves can't let others know their identity!"
Hu Tao made a face, scaring Furina back two steps.
"Alright, Werewolves, you can now discuss your strategy."
"And I must remind you, this round is very important. You need to decide which player to kill."
Xavier interrupted their idle chat.
Eula, Hu Tao, and Lyney frowned, deep in thought.
"If nothing unexpected happens, I might be poisoned to death by Hachijou Shenzi tonight. Then it will be up to you all."
Eula spoke first, already having a premonition.
She could fool others, but perhaps not Hachijou Shenzi.
The reason she chose to vote Furina out was just to be safe.
"Huh? If you leave, who will give us ideas? No, no, can't you poison me instead?!"
Hu Tao was a little anxious hearing that Eula might die.
Furina laughed, "Hu Tao, you're too silly. If you could really die in place of someone else, then everyone would know you two are teammates!"
Hu Tao was a bit deflated. It wasn't just against the rules; what Furina said also made a lot of sense.
"Don't be so disheartened, everyone. Although I might die, we already have a scapegoat for tomorrow's vote."
Eula suddenly showed a confident smile: "In the last round, we didn't stick together, which means each of our speaking directions was different."
"On the other hand, Bennett and Amber both followed my line of thinking. You can completely say they are Werewolves."
"Hmm~ If I remember correctly, the professional term is 'taking the fall,' which means dying in place of a Werewolf."
Their eyes lit up after hearing this, thinking it was an excellent strategy.
"Alright, Xavier, we've decided! The person to kill tonight is Hachijou Shenzi!"
As for who to kill tonight, there was naturally no suspense; it had to be Hachijou Shenzi.
Because Hachijou Shenzi, that wicked woman, was too clever; they dared not keep her for later.
"Alright, even if you're going to kill someone, you still have to patrol. Let's go."
With that, Xavier led the three Werewolves on their usual patrol.
At first, Furina followed them to inspect.
Until they reached Xiao's floor, Furina felt too tired, so she sat down on the stairs.
"No, I can't go on! Why does he live so high up? You guys go!"
Furina gasped for breath, too exhausted!
Xavier shook his head. She was truly weak but loved to play.
Xavier led the three to Xiao's room, and Furina also felt a bit relieved.
Suddenly, she felt someone peeking at her from behind and immediately turned to look.
Unfortunately, there was nothing, which made Furina sigh in relief.
"That really scared me! I thought there was actually something in this old castle…"
After speaking, Furina got up, intending to find Xavier and the others, but as soon as she turned around, she saw a peculiar door at the end of the staircase.
All the other doors were brown wooden doors, but only this room's door was dark red.
This made Furina very curious. Her eyes darted, and she muttered to herself, "Could this be the castle's treasure room? There won't be any king's treasure inside, will there?!"
Furina didn't think much of it, immediately ran to the room, and pushed the door open.
"Click!"
The room door closed, and Room 100 clearly appeared.
"Hmm? Where did Furina go?"
After inspecting the room, Xavier walked around with his kerosene lamp and found no trace of Furina.
However, he didn't think much of it, only assuming that Furina was tired and had gone back to her room to rest.
As a result, by the afternoon of the next day, they still hadn't seen any trace of Furina, but they also didn't think too much of it.
"Ugh, I slept so tired last night~"
Xingqiu came over and rubbed his shoulders, looking very fatigued.
Chongyun asked curiously, "Huh, haven't you been writing in your room all this time, barely coming out? How could you feel tired?"
Xingqiu hadn't spoken yet when Kaveh, beside him, also complained.
"Yeah, I feel very tired too, and I keep dozing off. Could it be that there's really something in this house?"
Xiangling immediately shrank onto the bench after hearing this.
"You, don't scare me! Why don't I feel anything?"
Shenhe calmly said, "It's nothing. Even if there really are evil spirits, I will protect you."
Chongyun also patted his chest and promised, "That's right, that's right! I have a Pure Yang Body; those lonely ghosts wouldn't dare come near me."
"That's great! You can sleep with me tonight!" Xingqiu immediately said.
Chongyun scratched his head and said, "Huh? Isn't that a bit inappropriate? We agreed everyone gets their own room, and what if I disturb your writing?"
"Writing is not as important as my life! It's settled then!"
No matter what Chongyun said, Xingqiu insisted, so he had no choice but to agree.
