"Although the marriage contract drawn up by Old Watson is very harsh, it is still very rude to kill the whole family."
Shade said softly, and the doctor smiled:
"You really have your way of doing things, so that's good, you don't get your hands dirty. Just like it said in Louisa's "Hamilton Detective Stories" - he watched the man fall into the sea cliff, and then said
He turned around and left silently amid the sound of seagulls. If the detective becomes a killer one day, he may be the most elegant killer."
"Doctor, please stop laughing at me."
Shade said, and Dr. Schneider threw the small stone mirror he was playing with to Shade:
"The remains of the demon you asked for. Shade, please allow me to express my gratitude to you. In addition, this demon has some other secrets that I have sealed in the mirror. However, you should not regard this as a long-term space prop.
Demonic remains are more terrifying than relics."
"You don't need to thank me. Instead, I should thank you."
Shade put away the small mirror:
"Although I really want to tell you what happened tonight, and I also want to know how Goethe died. However, my time is very tight."
He stood up and put away the heart that originally belonged to Mrs. Haila on the ground. Although the heart was cut out by hand, its integrity was not affected due to the existence of special power.
In the [Soul Cemetery] on the third floor of Xia De's house, sacrificing the "Heart of the Living Dead" can safely open a two-way door to the real death. And the Heart of the Living Dead refers to this. This is not a simple resurrection.
The human soul also demands the hottest emotions and the saddest stories:
"Doctor, I'll go upstairs to deal with some things myself. You wait here for my friend. The black-haired lady is Miss Emma Sylvia. She may be very cold to you, but don't worry, she just doesn't care.
I just like strangers."
After bidding farewell to the doctor for the time being, Shade walked towards the door of the mansion. Compared to the last time he entered here, he was completely out of the control of the devil's power. The Oxenfurt Manor was so dilapidated that it looked like no one had lived there for a hundred years.
Almost only the frame of the house was left, with traces of fire and smashing everywhere. When Shade found a barely walkable path to the third floor, he found that the only lit master bedroom on the third floor still maintained basic decency.
[The soul power of Haela Oxenfurt supports the final scenery.]
"She" explained softly in Shade's ear.
Entering the door, the illusion of the wedding in the bedroom had disappeared, leaving only Helena Oxenfurt in a black dress and veil standing at the window.
Although the deserted bedroom is a bit old, it is at least much better than the outside.
Shade walked to her side:
"it's over."
"Thanks."
The woman turned around, and Shade saw that her skin color was now very close to that of a real corpse, and her lips had really turned purple.
Although there was no visible wound on the chest, Shade knew that the woman in front of him was dead. However, compared to when she had the heart of stone in her chest, without the heart at this time, she looked more like a normal person.
The demon's power disappeared, and she was leaving. In fact, when Shade entered the room, the color of the entire room began to gradually peel off.
The woman looked at him:
"My soul belongs to you now."
"I said, I don't want a soul."
So the woman wearing the veil held up the stone heart that suddenly appeared in her hands:
"Then, please at least accept this."
The stone heart ran through the black rose that she had just held in her hand. The stem of the rose pierced the heart, destroying its integrity. But it also looked like the withered rose that had been planted.
To the heart.
"In addition, in recent months, Stone has been helping cultists who believe in evil gods hide in the local area. Yesterday, they came to the manor and took away the statue made by Stone. The statue was not completed and still lacked the final eyes."
Haela Oxenfurt said again.
Shade pursed his lips and nodded, watching as her figure became increasingly fainter, peeling away piece by piece along with the scenery in the room:
"Although this question is meaningless now, I'm still curious - after losing Heart of Stone, do you still love him?"
"Yes."
The woman closed her eyes and said, the tears flowing from the corners of her eyes slid down her cheeks, and then fell on the black rose. The withered rose bloomed again, and Shade also took it from the woman's hand.
"Finally, I left a gift for you in the back garden."
Helena Oxenfurt said finally, reaching out to wipe away the tears that continued to fall, and then opened her eyes and looked at her wet fingertips:
"It turns out that my tears also have warmth."
Her figure continued to fade, and then disappeared completely. The bedroom became dilapidated, and a large hole was opened in the wall with windows. At this time, Shade was standing in front of the hole.
He lowered his head and looked at the heart and rose in his hand. Under the blowing of the wind, the black rose actually scattered pieces of tiny white snowflakes, just like the first time Shade used the "Visual Demon" to observe Haila Ao.
Same as Senfert (Chapter 1300).
He held them up with his right hand, and carefully touched the petals of the rose with his left hand. For a moment, a cold feeling rushed to his heart along his fingertips, and then the feeling of distress and sadness almost made Shade cry.
[The power of the devil, the power of the soul, and some indescribable and wonderful emotions grew that rose.]
"So, is this a winter flower?"
Shade asked, turning around and preparing to go downstairs.
[Of course you have already planned it? 】
"How is that possible? Originally, I planned to use snowflakes. [Calling Big Snowball] is related to the winter god after all."
After leaving the mansion, Shade went to the back garden on the way to see the last gift that Mrs. Haila mentioned. The back garden still looked like the last time Shade saw it, because it was already dilapidated enough.
Even though it was a dark night with heavy snow, Sha De could still see the oil painting easel erected in the snow at a glance. That location happened to be the place where Mrs. Haila once painted oil paintings for Sha De.
"not"
He walked through the deep snow one step at a time, then saw a completed oil painting on the easel.
In the oil painting, a young man is standing in the snow with a smile, holding a very familiar shovel in his right hand. Although the back garden in winter is desolate, there is still a gardener's cabin in the distance, and half of it is exposed on the left.
nursery, and white clouds in the blue sky as decoration.
The background description in the oil painting is quite delicate, and Shade Hamilton in the center of the painting is even more delicate. More importantly, that face is not Shade's disguised face, but his real face:
"she"
Shade turned to look at the mansion in the wind and snow. After sighing softly, he put the painting away and planned to frame it and hang it in his home.
Instead of returning directly from the back garden to the front courtyard to meet the doctor, Shade turned into a butterfly and crossed the wall, arriving at the small dock by the Ellon River.
The originally frozen lake surface exploded the moment [Desire] was summoned by Shade, and now when they came to the river again, not even the ice floes could be seen.
Xia De didn't even need to call out, the ripples of water appeared directly in the deep lake at night. Then there was the woman's gentle smile, but that smile was not "her" in the ears, but her in the lake.
Wow~
Because it was on the side of Oxenfurt Manor, the burning woods could not illuminate it. Shade stood on the small smuggling dock and watched the black-haired woman's head appear under his feet in the night.
Nearby.
He looked at her from top to bottom, and she looked at him from bottom to top in a weak posture. Although there were no words, just that expression was enough to make people's hearts move.
"Look at you, how did you end up like this?"
The woman's head in the water asked, her voice sounding like a wife caring about her husband back home, but also like lovers complaining about each other during an affair:
"It seems that the next time I see Goethe will be a long, long time later."
With the gentle sound of water, a naked white arm stretched out from the water, and in that hand, there was a small yellow flower:
"Do you need me to congratulate you on defeating the enemy?"
"What price do I need to pay for autumn flowers to be given to me?"
Shade asked. The flower seller whom Iluna met not long ago said that [Desire] can provide autumn flowers. Obviously, the desire and [Desire] in Shade's heart are quite clear.
"How can a man who really doesn't understand amorous feelings directly ask for flowers from ladies?"
The head in the water said with a smile. If Shade was not still recovering from serious injuries, he doubted whether he could continue to endure the sound:
“What do I have to give?”
He asked again, and the beautiful face in the water made a gesture of biting her lips:
"If you could treat me as gently as you did that girl with purple eyes, I might be willing to help you directly."
Shade wanted to laugh, but he felt it was better not to do such a thing at this time:
"I know that although you seem to have evil intentions towards me, you have actually helped me a lot. I won't say thank you or anything like that, but I am also willing to do something for you like before."
A series of laughter came from the water, and the sound was so light and alluring. Even if you don't look at that face, you can still imagine what kind of beautiful woman it is that can make such a touching laugh:
"The reason why you are able to coax so many witches is not just because you can approach them at will. Also, tell me, have you met any interesting people in this city recently?"
"I met a witch who is good at acting, a demon who is evil but crazy about love, a friend who can multiply his blood into half a city, and I also met"
