"What?"
Sure enough, upon hearing these words, Daine immediately slammed the table and stood up: "Great! After all these years, I've finally found my chance for revenge!"
Daine had always been thick-headed.
Combined with his intense hatred for Duke Ferguson, he wasn't thinking straight anymore.
"Isn't that right?" Bobby said, "Duke Ferguson has given you so much trouble in the past, I've seen it all with my own eyes. Now, you can take out your anger on his daughter."
"I'm going right now!"
Just as Daine turned to rush out, Bobby quickly stopped him.
Noticing that other diners in the restaurant were starting to pay attention to them, Bobby lowered his voice: "What's the hurry? The little girl is in the hotel anyway, she's not going anywhere. There are so many people in the hotel right now, if you make a move now, aren't you afraid of causing trouble?"
"Then what do you suggest?"
"Wait until midnight, then go to the girl's room and kill her quietly," Bobby whispered, "That way, no one else will know, including the hotel owner. It's better not to break hotel rules in front of others."
Daine thought for a moment, nodded, and said: "That makes sense. Duke Bobby, you really think of everything."
Bobby lowered his head to drink his soup, but a cold smile crept across his lips.
Daine had just arrived and didn't understand the situation here, nor did he know how formidable the hotel owner was.
He wasn't sure what would happen if someone broke the rules in private, so why not use this fool Daine to test it out... After all, if there were any punishment, Daine would be the one to suffer.
And if Daine managed to kill that little girl before getting punished, that would be even better...
...
Deep in the night.
Janet had slept too much during the day, so she wasn't feeling sleepy at all.
She sat at her desk, writing in her diary.
The pen and notebook were bought from the general store, and they were quite novel to her as she had never seen anything like them before, but she liked them very much.
She had just finished writing an entry, and still not feeling sleepy, she left her room to take a walk in the courtyard.
Bruno had told her that everywhere within the hotel grounds was absolutely safe, including the front and back courtyards, so she wasn't afraid to be alone even at midnight.
After walking around the front courtyard for a while, she went to the back courtyard.
The back courtyard was empty at this hour, completely deserted.
A bright moon hung in the sky, and as Janet gazed at it, her eyes grew misty.
She started missing her family... especially her father, who had always loved her dearly...
Just then, she heard hurried footsteps behind her.
Janet had barely turned around when suddenly a hand reached out and forcefully grabbed her arm.
In the moonlight, Janet clearly saw the man's twisted face, and the knife in his hand that was fiercely swinging down at her!
In that instant, Janet couldn't even scream.
She instinctively closed her eyes, thinking she was done for!
But after waiting for a moment, the expected pain never came.
Janet cautiously opened her eyes and saw the man standing motionless before her, still frozen in his knife-wielding pose.
From his pained expression, she could tell he was struggling, but he couldn't move at all.
Janet breathed a sigh of relief and pulled her arm from the man's grip.
Strangely, her arm didn't hurt at all.
And this man suddenly becoming unable to move... It seemed that the hotel really was absolutely safe!
But she was still scared, and just as she was about to go back and call for help, she heard another set of footsteps.
She turned to look and saw Gu Wanyin walking towards them while yawning.
"Who's so eager to die in the middle of the night?"
