Chapter 285 The death scene of Miss Justice Society
Different from the gorgeous and expensive but gloomy and gloomy castle in the family, this castle gave Audrey the intuitive feeling that it was beautiful.
Then she noticed that the decoration style used here was completely different from that of mainstream aristocratic castles. It was difficult for Audrey to describe in detail what kind of art form it should be here, because it was different from the aristocratic education she had received. Any artistic style is completely different in terms of artistic aesthetics.
Different from the current mainstream "religious" architectural style, although you can still generally see the sense of aristocratic luxury, if you look closely, you will find a strong sense of rebellion. There is no element related to faith here. .The furniture uses a large amount of dark wood, which forms a sharp contrast with the lighter color of the main body of the building.
But Audrey has seen the world at least. Compared to the palace where the Tarot Club is located, which is like a giant's residence, although the artistic atmosphere here is rich, the impact is not that exaggerated. After Audrey's initial surprise, , and quickly came back to his senses.
She stepped forward and followed the curved staircase that stretched out like two embracing arms in the center of the hall to the suspended floor on the second floor. Then, following the map inside the castle, she walked through the corridor toward the study on the third floor.
The lighting in this castle is surprisingly good. Compared with the family castle that is full of candles day and night and still feels eerie, this castle where you can see gargoyles and devils floating around gives people a rather open feeling. And a bright feeling.
Although Audrey knew that this was not conducive to defense, in the absence of war, she still preferred this kind of residence with wide views and excellent lighting.
"It's not right to say it's not conducive to defense. This castle is a magical item!" Audrey rejected her idea. Susie, who followed her up to the third floor, finally had time to ask:
"Audrey, where are we going? Didn't you say we wanted to find a place to clean up? We don't have time to take risks in this castle!"
"Susie! Am I so unreliable in your eyes? What we are going to now is the study on the third floor. According to the map, there is the control hub of the castle. Only by gaining control of the castle can we do whatever we want. You can use the facilities in this castle without worrying about being hurt by strange mechanisms."
Audrey said seriously, but deliberately ignored the fact that as long as you press the map, you can go to the bathroom without gaining control.
Well, she just wants to know what special functions the so-called "entire castle is a magical object" has.
But of course Audrey also knew that she didn't have much time, so she stepped a little faster. At this time, she completely ignored the requirements for stride length in aristocratic etiquette, that is, she was wearing a tattered hunting coat at this time. If she were wearing a long palace dress, it would only take two steps for her to fall to the ground.
"This is it!"
Audrey looked at the black walnut-colored embossed wooden door at the end of the corridor, compared it with the map again, and took a deep breath.
She stretched out her hand, grasped the handle that felt great, and turned it gently. With a slight friction sound, the door opened, and a ray of light came out from behind the door.
Audrey couldn't wait to push the door open, but the moment she took the first step, her whole body froze in place, and she even forgot to put down her raised feet.
Because right in front of him, on the desk seat that should have represented the control hub of the entire castle, there was a person sitting. He was holding a book bound with parchment in his hand, looking at it with relish, and the iconic sign at the corner of his mouth
Even without seeing his face, Audrey could recognize his joking smile! But what made Audrey feel even more numb was how come the book in Mr. Devil's hand looked so familiar?!
"Mr. Devil?!"
"Ah, Miss Justice, you came much faster than I expected. I thought you would go to the closet first to see if there are any replacement clothes." Snow smiled and took the book in his hand.
He closed it, but did not put it on the table as Audrey wanted. Instead, he just held it in his hand and let it distract Audrey's eyes.
"You, why are you here?" Audrey asked stuttering, her cheeks already red and about to have a fever.
"This question is very strange. This is my home, of course I will be here?" Snow looked at Audrey with an innocent face, making Audrey want to hit someone.
"But, this is the territory of the Hall family!" Audrey murmured for a while and finally found a reasonable excuse for her appearance here, but Snow still just smiled and said:
"I want to reiterate that the territory sold to the Hall family does not include this valley. If you insist on saying so, this is closer to the goddess's deep dark heaven. So although in name, the territory of the Penridax family was eventually sold to Hall.
The family acquired it, but this ancestral home and the valley where the ancestral home is located still belong to the Penridax family."
Having said this, Snow reached out and picked up a rattle on the table. After shaking it twice, small people the size of a palm poured into the study. Su Nuo, who had never interacted with Snow,
Qian immediately blocked Audrey's side, but still remembered Audrey's instructions and did not speak in front of others.
"This is a servant in the castle. You can think of it as a stand-in for this castle. If you have something to do, you can tell them. Well, by the way, if you don't mind, you can use my bathroom. The big bathroom is sixth on the left.
Each room has a small bathroom attached. You can ask them to take you there. The women's clothes here are relatively old, but they should be better than what you are wearing now. Don't worry, most of them
They are all new. After all, as a noble, you should also understand that many times the clothes in the wardrobe will never be worn once in a lifetime."
"Ah, I know!" Audrey then remembered how impolite she was wearing at this time, and ran towards the door as if running away, but when she arrived at the door, she suddenly heard Mr. Devil coming from behind her.
That playful voice——
"By the way, Miss Justice, I have to say that your method of dealing with the tentacle monster is a bit stupid... Next time you encounter that thing, you can try to sprinkle some salt on it..."
"Ah!" Audrey let out a cute cry, and her speed was a little faster. Looking at Audrey's running back, Susie turned her head and glanced at Snow, and was about to chase Audrey when she heard
Snow said:
"Ms. Susie, if you need cleaning services, they can help."
