[The maid Irene entered the room to serve Sarah. The servants stood in the corridor waiting, whispering about the servant David who ran away last night. The Viscount was furious about this. Fortunately, the servant did not take away the manor.
things.]
Lu Li and the others listened quietly as Shadow Tail arranged the ending for David.
At 5:40 in the morning, the body of David Alexander was found on the beach. He had a fatal wound on the back of his neck. After being washed by the rain all day, it turned into a hideous open wound. Because David was wearing Baron Joseph's Mansion when he died.
Wearing servant clothes, the Agate Lake District Police Station came to inquire and everyone learned of his fate.
And when the night watchman took over the police station to inquire, he spent a lot of money to hire a man who retired from the night watchman and had experienced the Shadow Thread Ritual.
Night watchmen who survive to retire are rarer than factory owners who take the initiative to pay bonuses to their workers.
[Old servant Vincent replaced David to serve Sarah. Old Vincent had served the Viscount and his family at the manor for more than ten years. Everyone was familiar with him, including Sarah. But in Sarah's eyes at this time, this
This old servant is just like being arranged by his father to monitor his eyes - especially when those old and cloudy eyes contain some kind of story.】
Vincent's experience was not much better than that of Lu Li and others at this time. As soon as he appeared, he was thrown to the same level as Lu Li and others. The latter sentence refers to Vincent's last ceremony of raising the shadow of the thread.
The Shadow Who Pulls the Thread still remembers him.
[The maid Irene took off the bandage wrapped around Sara's palm, put on a new one for her, and asked with concern: "Miss, are you feeling better?" The bandage touched the wound on the back of the hand and it hurt, but Sara was like
Not feeling anything ordinary, he smiled and said: "It's okay, thank you Eileen."]
[Sara is pretending to be the same as usual.]
The baron finished his part calmly, waiting for the next sentence of the obscure ancient shadow to sound.
["Eileen, can you ask for a few more days off for me? I don't really want to go out recently." Sarah said. 】
There was a sudden thunder outside the window where the rain was beating. The baron shook his hand and almost pulled off the bandage that had been wrapped several times.
I will be forced to be alone.
The baron clearly remembered that he should have been assigned to go to the tree house with Sarah yesterday - but perhaps the shadow that brought the thread was for the sake of plot tension and for the protagonist's revenge to be more dramatic, as "the young lady who betrayed the best to him"
Maid", her death part left for later.
This is what Old Vincent, the survivor of Shadow of the Thread, told everyone.
The Shadow of the Thread is an evil spirit that takes part in rituals and pays attention to the sense of ritual.
["But the teacher will be unhappy if you don't go to class for too long..." the maid Irene said hesitantly. "My father will agree. Maybe he is very happy that I will stay in the room and not go out until the stranger from the Earl's family
I want someone to marry me." Sarah replied.]
[The maid Irene gently tied the bandage to avoid causing pain to the eldest lady. Sensing Sarah's resistance to Francis, she raised her head and said seriously: "Your Excellency Francis is really an excellent person, eldest lady, you
You should be happy.”]
"..." After a long silence, which lasted until the black mist on the ceiling descended, the Baron had to say lines that would push him into the abyss: "Your Excellency Francis is really an outstanding person. Miss, you should be happy."
yes."
Lu Li and the others are outside, "Sarah" shouldn't dare to do anything in the bedroom... the baron thought to himself.
The title of this chapter has clearly told everyone that today there will continue to be "betrayers" killed by Sarah and undergoing resurrection rituals.
They know the truth.
But "they" know nothing.
[Sara just shook her head and said nothing. "Okay then." Maid Irene believed that the eldest lady would change her mind, so she sat up and ran to ask for leave for Sara. 】
Under the watchful eyes of Lu Li and others, the baron left the bedroom, followed by the housekeeper Lulu who never left behind and disappeared around the corner.
[The maid Irene left, Sara slowly released her right hand that was gripping the quilt, and put down the impulse surging in her heart. She knew that this was not part of the plan. If she had just done something, the frequent disappearance of servants around her would definitely cause that
Father’s attention.]
[She is not afraid of being discovered. Stupid people are addicted to false glitz and self-righteous truth. Who would believe that the weak daughter of a viscount is a murderer? But she is worried that she will be grounded, so that she will not be able to resurrect Adam.
.]
【Sarah needs to hurry up and do as planned.】
Lu Li and the others didn't know what the plan was, but it was obviously not going to be a good thing. From now on until the end of the story, each of them must be as vigilant as possible.
Sarah did not take the initiative to communicate with them next. Lu Li and others went into the bedroom to clean up as they did every day.
[Sara is leaning against the wall, her slender legs under the quilt are slightly curled up, and she is reading a book in her hand.]
After a while, the baron returned. After cleaning up, everyone left the bedroom, leaving only the baron.
[Seeing that Sarah was reading a book, the maid Irene did not disturb her and came to the balcony to water the potted plants. It made her feel something different from usual. The beautiful bird chirping that she usually heard every morning has not appeared yet.
.]
Lu Li and others were sitting on the sofa in the corridor. The new member Vincent was holding a pipe and standing in front of the window a little away from them.
The scattered aftertaste of muffled thunder made the windows tremble slightly.
After appearing on the stage, Vincent did behave as a Night Watchman and a survivor of the Thread: flexible and cautious enough, and did not make the careless mistake of relying on his elders.
Exorcists with careless personalities usually don't live long.
Taking advantage of the gap when the plot was not progressing, Lu Li reached into his arms and took out a newspaper folded to the size of his palm and unfolded it.
Today, Monday, the merchant delivered the deep sea stone to the warehouse on Elm Street and brought a copy of "Investigator Weekly".
Petra, who was sitting not far away talking to Laura, looked at her and looked away.
The image under the title shows an empty sea, and there is a second image, which is a group photo of exorcists involved in investigating the "terrible faceless giant incident".
A description of the entire incident is written next to it.
[The terrifying faceless giant disappeared as suddenly as it appeared. All investigation and handling methods failed. Under the terrifying atmosphere of the other world, it was difficult for the demon slayers to even approach the beach. We knew very little about it. Fortunately, until last week
On the same day, the terrifying faceless giant did not appear again, and seemed to have left this world.】
[But we cannot take it lightly. It is foreseeable that similar incidents will occur one after another for a long time to come, and the construction of doomsday shelters in various regions has begun.]
