In one painting, Aiwass and Yassen walked to the front row of an almost empty concert hall, and then heard the noise behind them.
Looking back, I saw that the seats two rows back were already occupied by all kinds of weird phantoms.
Aiwass couldn't stand it at that time.
If there is an extra person quietly behind you, and you can see them following you no matter when you look back, that may be called terrifying. Not to mention that their appearance itself is full of freedom and imagination... But if behind you
Dozens of people have been added quietly, and you will wonder if you are the extra person.
Horror movies have become comedies.
...Fortunately, most of them are not hostile to Aiwass and the others.
There are only a few paintings where the transformed phantoms come up to fight when they see people; in more paintings, these monsters suddenly emerge or transform because they inadvertently violated a certain taboo.
As for the phantom demons from outside... they were just curious about the appearance and purpose of Aiwass's visit. They all stayed far behind and "followed" them in a very calm and unobtrusive way. And they
The movement will attract other phantoms, so more and more people will gather.
It is normal for creatures on the path of beauty to have strong curiosity. Those fairies are all like this——
For example, the Fairy Queen herself already has the strength of Tiansi. Although she does not have Tiansi fragments... she is already so strong without Tiansi fragments. If she can get her own Tiansi fragments, she may even have Tiansi fragments.
May become the first person under the twin mirror.
——Of course, it is limited to the inside of the Road of Beauty. There are too many monsters outside.
Although Aiwass didn't know where these demons came from, they all seemed friendly and polite, and Aiwass couldn't take the initiative to expel or harm them.
I can only leave it like this for now.
But just when Aiwass felt a little numb, he took Yassen and rushed into another library world from a painting hanging in the corridor.
Aiwass originally subconsciously began to observe the world around him, looking for "related paintings" that were more similar to the world described by Yassen. But this time, both Aiwass and Yassen found it quite difficult... because
They feel that they are very close to their destination.
But it wasn't until they passed by Sherlock that they suddenly realized... they had already arrived!
This is the world Yassen described!
Everything was exactly as described - Sherlock remained relaxed, covering his forehead and thinking about something. Behind him was a huge bookshelf, and in front of him were two gold candlesticks, with two candles, one black and one white, inserted on the left and right.
.And there is no one in the entire space.
"Sherlock!"
Yassen called to the other party.
He was quite excited and walked forward quickly.
When he saw Yassen, Sherlock, who was resting his chin in boredom, suddenly brightened up.
He opened his mouth and was about to say something, then suddenly looked at Aiwass as if he had thought of something.
"Thank you for your hard work, you two..."
Sherlock's lips moved slightly and his eyes turned red as he stood up.
Yassen immediately reached out and hugged Sherlock and patted his back.
"Alright, Detective. Look who's here? I brought your friends to save you."
In front of Sherlock, Yassen's voice regained its magnetic deepness, and no longer sounded naive like an idiot: "Even in front of the Duke, there is no need to be afraid. No matter where you are...
Whatever you investigate, I suggest you smash them and follow us!"
"Good brother..."
Sherlock hesitated to speak, but also turned around and patted Yasen on the back, looked at Yasen and sighed: "Without you, I really don't know what to do...Don't worry about the Duke, I can solve it."
But after hearing these words, Aiwass was suddenly stunned.
Aiwass suddenly realized something and turned around to look behind him.
The library was extremely quiet and empty.
Except for the densely packed maze-like giant bookshelves, there was no "familiar person" in sight.
The followers who had followed them for several worlds suddenly disappeared silently.
——But Yassen hasn’t realized this yet.
Facing Sherlock's reply, Yassen responded without hesitation: "I'm really tortured to death. I obviously have some adaptability to the path of beauty, but it's still too troublesome to walk in the Hall of Mirrors...
...But I think the Duke is not too busy, so you should go back quickly. Your queen is getting married soon, and this is something that cannot be delayed."
"Indeed."
Sherlock sighed, stood up and walked towards Aiwass. At the same time, he casually asked Yassen: "Help me pack up the documents under the table, can you?"
"certainly……"
Yassen agreed immediately.
"Under the table you mentioned, this is..."
As he spoke, he knelt down and opened the drawer.
But before Yasen finished speaking - even the moment the drawer was opened, the drawer suddenly exploded!
Yasen only had time to close his eyes. When the smoke from the explosion dissipated, Yasen's entire face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Yasen had a question mark on his face, obviously he hadn't fully realized what had happened.
"Ehehehehehehehehehahahahaha!"
A sharp clown-like voice sounded: "You have been fooled!"
I saw that the original "Sherlock" turned into a guy wearing red clothes and a dark red wooden "smile mask" at some point. He was slender and fair-skinned. The only personal characteristic that could be seen was,
There is a burgundy high ponytail and a thin braid on the back of his head.
——And Aiwass had already expected this scene.
"Can I ask," the clown wearing the red mask asked Aiwass carefully, "where did I expose my flaw?"
"manner."
Aiwass smiled: "Sherlock would never call me that tone. He and I have gone through the period where we need to be humble to each other. Basically, we are scolding each other, and when someone has something wrong, the other person will do it."
I will go to the extent of helping to save him.”
"So that's it."
The red mask ripped off the "smile" mask, and there was a new mask underneath - it was an innocent and wry smile: "But, is it just... this reason?"
"You guy..."
Yassen finally came to his senses and stepped forward to reason: "Who are you? It's not fair for a master of art to deceive people... Where did you put Sherlock?"
Aiwass stopped him directly.
"——If my prediction is correct," Aiwass said, "this person should be Xi Tiansi."
"...Xi Tiansi?"
Yasen was stunned for a moment, a little stunned.
"Indeed."
Xi Tiansi praised: "But how did you recognize it was me?"
"The art of puppetry...my fiancée can do it too."
Aiwass smiled and said: "So I also know some flaws."
"...Oh, I have an impression!"
Xi Tiansi was in a daze for a while, and then recalled the truth: "Your fiancée's name is Isabel, right? When she was learning the art of puppetry some time ago, I visited her.
"But it's a pity that her aptitude for the art of puppetry is still not high enough, and in the end she still didn't have the qualifications to 'build a stage'... But it's enough. At least she can perform a few performances in private."
"
"Speaking of which..."
Aiwass asked: "Since you have Sherlock's puppet, does that mean you have met Sherlock?"
"Of course...or rather, more than that. He is on my territory now."
Xi Tiansi, who took off the mask of a bitter smile, turned into an enthusiastic performer again: "But - gentlemen! If you want to find Sherlock, why don't I take you there directly! Consider it an apology for the previous prank."
Hearing this, Aiwass and Yassen breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally Sherlock's soul can be found...
Although there was some torture in the middle...but at least they found the right direction!
