252. The rainy season that will come tomorrow

During the break in the etiquette class, Sarah called the maid Irene and asked her to deliver a letter to Adam as soon as possible.

Just as everyone suspected, the evil spirit did not allow the letter to reach Adam. According to the plot, the baron handed the letter to the viscount. After reading the letter, the viscount became furious, ordered Sarah to return to the room and sent a servant to guard her and left.

Room, you are not allowed to leave the room before the dinner party tomorrow.

[Sarah is like a princess imprisoned in a tower by a witch, but no prince comes to save her.]

Since the Baron, Lu Li and others were members of the Viscount, their freedom was not restricted.

[When the maid Irene with evasive eyes appeared in the room, Sara did not seem to blame her and said softly: "I know, it was father who found the letter, right?". The maid Irene nodded hesitantly.

I don’t dare to let the eldest lady know the truth.】

Due to plot restrictions and the switch to darkness, the Baron was not able to take advantage of the opportunity to peek at the letter, but the content can be roughly guessed: asking Adam to leave her, and asking Adam to save her.

"Sara" then became as calm as a windless lake, which led the exorcists to conclude that it was the latter. However, the letter was intercepted by the "Viscount". How should "Adam" know about "Sara"'s plight?

The five people in the Evil Spirit Ritual are undoubtedly contradictory. They all desire to bring about a perfect ending for the two of them. However, under the arrangement of the plot, they are breaking up the lovers "Sarah" and "Adam".

"We can only take one step at a time."

In the afternoon, the "Viscount Mansion" welcomed a guest, and Lu Li and four other servants interacted with the guest.

That was Sara's uncle, the Viscount's younger brother. However, the Viscount didn't seem to welcome it and asked the guards to drive him out. Before leaving, Sara's uncle said that he would come back tomorrow.

This incident was just an episode, and the exorcists could only guess that this person might trigger a new plot.

In the evening, the rain stopped temporarily, and a breeze started blowing through the branches in the manor, making a chilling sound like a ghost crying.

[Exhausted Sara did not take off her skirt and put on something casual, she lay on the soft bed and fell asleep slowly. 】

The obscure ancient voice gradually faded away, and Chapter 6 ended.

Baron Lu Li and others remained quiet and left the corridor where the bedroom was. As they moved away, they reintegrated into the real world.

The baron left temporarily to change his clothes. The butler led Lu Li and others to change their clothes and went to the restaurant.

During the next dinner, they discussed the upcoming plot for a while, and Lu Li left after finishing the meal.



"It's still more comfortable in the detective agency!"

Anna dove into the sofa and said vaguely.

Lu Li turned on the radio, turned the clockwork, and then the sound of snowflakes began to change from the radio.

Another day I missed catching up with Alliance Radio.

Turning off the radio, Lu Li looked at Anna lying on the sofa: "Did you discover anything today?"

"No... the evil spirit doesn't seem to notice me, or doesn't care about me." Anna replied, lying on the sofa with her head propped up, her translucent legs under her skirt slightly curled up.

As she became more familiar with him, "maintaining her appearance" in front of Lu Li became a very uncomfortable thing for her.

"The story is about to end, right? Tomorrow's dinner should be the most critical plot, and then they elope or separate, and the story ends." Anna said, rubbing her chin.

This is a good sign, she has learned to think.

"If the evil spirits want to make such a story."

The evil spirit behind everything doesn't look like a love story addict.

And that questionable name: "Sarah's Book of Death."

Picking up the newspaper on the desk and opening it, the terrifying faceless giant and lost contact in the farmland retreated to the second and third pages. The title of the first page was conspicuously bold and black.

[The rainy season will cover the Allen Peninsula on Sunday!]

[The storm has arrived in nearby waters and is expected to officially arrive at the Allen Peninsula tomorrow evening. Belfast and Shimfast in the eastern part of the Allen Peninsula will bear the brunt!]

[Local residents should pay attention to adding more clothes and stocking up on food, kerosene and other supplies for the rainy season. It is recommended to choose Astor Department Store, which has a complete range of goods at low prices...]

Sunday, that is, tomorrow.

Maybe you can ask Baron Joseph for payment in advance tomorrow and buy the deep-sea stones and some supplies before the price rises even higher.

Lu Li thought to himself, put the newspaper back, washed up and returned to the sofa.

There was no warmth on the sofa where Anna had been staying before. Lu Li covered himself with a blanket, closed his eyes at Anna's greetings, and fell into a deep sleep.

As usual, Anna stared at Lu Li's face in a daze for a while, then took the novel and floated to the wooden chair behind the desk to sit down, immersed in the story by the light of the oil lamp on the desk.

The detective agency fell into silence. Occasionally, whispers and coughs could be heard from next door, but as night fell, all sounds disappeared.

At midnight, the whining sound blown by the wind gradually sounded from the window and became clear.

The voice echoed in the dark detective agency. Anna behind the desk raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at the window.

The curtains were blown by the cold wind that filtered in.

Anna quietly glanced at Lu Li, who was lying on his side on the sofa. His straight eyebrows were slightly frowned, but he did not wake up.

"Sweet dreams."

Anna murmured softly.



[Sara opened her eyes.]

[The moonlight poured on the balcony. In the dim moonlight, Sara slowly sat up, stepped on the soft blanket with her bare feet, and came to the window. The moonlight was as beautiful as ever, and low voices could be heard faintly from the moon.

.]

[While everyone in the mansion had fallen asleep, Sara sat on the wooden chair, gently opened the drawer, and took out a piece of letter paper.]

[Sara picked up the quill and rustled down paragraphs of content on the pale letter paper by the moonlight.]

【Dear Adam】

[This is a letter I wrote secretly. I am now locked in my room by my father and cannot leave]

【Tomorrow, my father will betroth me to a man I have never met】

[If you love me, sneak into the manor tomorrow and take me away]

【——Sarah who longs for freedom】

[Putting the quill back down, Sara gently dried the ink on the letter paper. She carefully folded the letter paper and came to the cold balcony. "Gu Gu——" She shouted to the night sky. After a while, it seemed that

Some kind of response, a faint sound came from the night sky.】

[A silhouette breaks out of the dark night and falls on the balcony guardrail. It is a homing pigeon. It has delivered letters to Sarah and Adam countless times.]

["The only one I can trust now is you..." Sara held the carrier pigeon in her hands, whispered, stuffed the letter paper into the mailbox, and gently sent the carrier pigeon out. 】

[The carrier pigeon flapped its wings and flew into the sky. Sarah watched the carrier pigeon carrying her hope disappear in the dark night sky.]
