In the dimly lit dining room, Camilla looked around and silently walked toward the staircase.
She had already secretly observed the structure of the room upstairs when she was changing in the afternoon. There shouldn't be anything hidden in the bathroom, and the room on the right was closed. She didn't know what was inside. She directly ignored the room filled with all kinds of toys.
There were two more rooms on the left. One of them should be Gina's room, and the other should be Meg's room.
"This guy, he might have other plans for letting the mermaid stay with him in the shop. Luckily, I brought a Photostone. If there is something going on between the two of them, I can record it and use it as evidence." Camilla took out a white stone from her bosom as a proud smile appeared on her face. Soon, she tiptoed to the second floor.
"Click." Camilla opened the door to the study on the right softly. She dashed into the study. Her eyes emitted a faint light in the dark, and she could see everything clearly.
The study wasn't big. There was a wall of bookshelves, and more than half of them were filled with books. There was also a brown wooden desk with two books and a tea set on it. There was nothing else in the room.
"Did this fellow really read so many books?" Camilla's gaze swept across the various books on the bookshelves as she muttered doubtfully. Then, she started to search the room. However, she could see everything in the room in one glance. There were no cabinets or anything of the sort, and she didn't see any Photostone at all.
"Just as I expected, this fellow must have hidden the Photostone in the bedroom, and then peeked under the blankets in the middle of the night. He is indeed a perverted stinky man!" Camilla clenched her teeth and muttered to herself. If it weren't for the fact that he was a good cook, she would definitely tear him into a million pieces!
Camilla took a deep breath and adjusted her mood. Then, she slowly walked toward the bedroom. Although there was a wooden door between them, she could already feel the steady breathing of the three people in the room. They should all be sleeping.
She was a ninth-grade vampire. It was too easy for her to hide from a normal person and two little ones.
She placed her hand on the door handle, and then silently opened the door …
Hmm?
Camilla was stunned as she looked at the wooden door that didn't move. Why didn't the door move?
"Could it be locked from the inside?" A trace of doubt appeared in Camilla's eyes. She turned the doorknob half a circle and then pulled the doorknob outwards with more force.
The door remained motionless.
Camilla stared at the door handle for a while to make sure that the door was not locked from the inside. But strangely, no matter how hard she tried, the door could not be opened. Her forehead was already covered in cold sweat.
"What kind of broken door is this? It's so hard to open the door. If I can't pull you away today, I'm not Camilla! "Camilla said to herself angrily. She stretched her arms and legs and reached for the door handle again.
"Crack."
At this moment, the unmoving wooden door made a soft sound and then slowly opened inwards.
Meg leaned against the door frame in his pajamas and yawned. He looked at Camilla helplessly and said, "The door opens inwards."
Camilla's expression instantly stiffened. She looked at Meg who was standing by the door, and then looked at the wooden door that was slowly opening. She felt that her intelligence had been insulted.
Furthermore!
Why was Meg standing here!
Shouldn't he have finished watching the Image-Recording Stone and fallen into a deep sleep on his bed?
"You … Why are you awake?!" Camilla subconsciously blurted out.
"If your doorknob was abused like this, even a pig would have woken up." Meg glanced at the doorknob. Luckily, it was not broken. Actually, when Camilla had just appeared in the dining room, Meg had already received the system's notification and the tracking video at the same time. He only left the warm bed and opened the door for her when he saw that she was so stupid that she was about to tear the door apart.
"Furthermore, shouldn't I be the one asking you why you are here?" Meg stood up straight and said with a teasing expression.
Camilla panicked. In her plan, she would quietly get the Photostone. This was a matter of course. She did not even consider that she would be caught on the spot because she could not open the door. She looked at Meg and was stunned for three seconds. She started to retreat as she said, "Well, I … I … I seem to have entered the wrong room. It's getting late. You should go to sleep first. Don't worry about me."
As soon as she finished speaking, she disappeared down the stairs. Then, there was a commotion downstairs, and the sound completely disappeared.
"This woman seems to be unwilling to stay in the dining room and be a waitress." Meg wrapped his clothes tightly and went downstairs to close the kitchen window. He then locked it.
He indeed only had one Photostone, but the system could make countless copies at any time. Therefore, he did not care whether Camilla stole the Photostone or not.
However, he thought that she would be content to be a waitress for a year. Now, it seemed that she was not so content. He had to be more careful in the future.
Back in the room, Meg covered the two little ones with the blanket that Amy had kicked away. Then, he lay back on the bed and continued to sleep.
…
Camilla turned into a bat and flew out of the dining room. She landed in the forest outside the dining room and stood on the top of a big tree. She looked angrily in the direction of Amy's.
"Madam, did you succeed?" Caesar jumped onto the big tree and looked at Camilla expectantly.
Camilla's eyelids twitched. She was naturally too embarrassed to speak of such an embarrassing experience. Her expression regained its calmness as she took out an image-recording stone and said, "This kind of thing naturally can't stump me. It's just a stupid human."
"Madam is wise!" Caesar's eyes lit up. He immediately said happily, "In this case, Madam will not have to be threatened by that guy anymore. You also don't have to be a waitress in that restaurant anymore."
"Ahem." Camilla put away the Photostone and said with an uneasy expression, "Of course, I will not be threatened by a human. However, I will not let him off so easily. Therefore, I will continue to lurk in his restaurant and find evidence of his wrongdoings. I will give it to Miss Gloria so that she will completely give up on him. When that time comes, I will take advantage of the situation and succeed."
"Madam is wise!" Caesar said with a face full of admiration.
Camilla smiled proudly, but the corners of her mouth were a little stiff.
…
"I have to start serving breakfast for the cleaners tomorrow. I have to learn how to make the congee with pork and century egg first." Lying on the bed, Meg pushed open the door to the test field for the God of Cookery and stepped in.
How did an ordinary duck egg turn into a beautiful century egg? It was more like a chemical reaction than a cooking process.
The chosen egg was soaked in a mixture of alkali, salt, tea leaves, mulberry wood ash, and so on for a few days. After it was taken out, it was rolled in dry mud and then wrapped in rice chaff. Only then would the century egg be considered a success.
