It was a small pocket watch. She opened it, and there was a portrait of Princess Dexin painted on it, as sweet and gentle as a girl. A corner of the portrait fell off, she opened the paper, and there was a line of words engraved on the back: Give it to my dear
Housekeeper, friend, and lover. Dexin belongs to you.
This is the butler's thing, Ling Xiaotu thought in surprise. He and Her Highness the Princess were once lovers. The inscription on the pocket watch looked sweet and happy, and he didn't mind being discovered. But now, it is obvious that Dexin wants to take everything that belongs to his lover.
All personal belongings were swept away, including this love token.
He gently placed the pocket watch where he found it, like placing a flower in front of a tomb. Suddenly, she thought that in her dream, she walked up the stone steps and stepped on half of the watch.
The metal pendant was actually half of the pocket watch. She thought that the portrait of the woman on it had faded and turned white. It had been lying alone in the soil for so many years.
In the dream, there is no gorgeous sea of flowers around, but a beach made of skeletons. Everything is gray and hopeless. The castle has died long ago, and everything roaring inside is death, as well as those left behind.
Creatures, existences crushed by time and human cruelty, are more terrifying than death.[
That scene is more suitable for this castle.
She turned around and walked into the castle. This was the small hall where the servants rested. There was a Bible on the table and the notebook on the Inferno.
Something is wrong, she thought irritably, something is wrong. The things in the dream kept appearing in reality, and if it was all true, this castle would be a hell.
The cause of death of this deceased butler sounds clear to the outside world, but there are some strange rumors among the servants as to how the former butler died.
The maid in charge of cleaning the room said that he was eaten out by bugs. She said that he must have accidentally swallowed something evil, which hatched countless bugs in his body and then ate him within three days.
There are many evil things in this castle.
She thought of the insect swarms on her clothes, and these rumors were obviously not nonsense.
She continued walking forward, following the route taken by the male servant, and came to the room where the housekeeper once lived.
