["Thank you for your help." Sara said to the servants. After they left the room, she sat down at the desk, opened her notes and wrote down the process of the third ceremony. 】
Petra's questioning eyes fell on the housekeeper Lulu. Lulu looked at the middle-aged head maid standing aside: "What happened to Laura after we left?"
["Because there was no blood loss, the resurrection this time was better than the last time, but I still can't speak, and I don't have the ability to think. I can only obey my orders like a puppet. Is it because of the lack of materials?"]
"He seemed to have been poisoned and collapsed, and then he was... dragged into the bedroom. After a while, he walked out of the room stiffly like a puppet on strings, and went outside, into the cellar next to the woodshed." The head maid's account was cryptic.
Ancient sounds alternately sounded.
In the real world, the location corresponding to the tree house is only a former lawn, but the woodshed and basement do exist.
The housekeeper Lulu nodded, asked her to take the lunch to the corridor, and retreated to the Baron.
["Perhaps there is something I missed." Sarah thought to herself. The ancient book was placed in the basement. She looked at the balcony, said something to the maid Irene, and went to the basement in the back garden. 】
The obscure voice ceased to sound as Sara left.
"Maybe we should follow." Petra said slowly.
The deaths of David and Laura made him feel uneasy and eager to do something.
"I don't recommend you do this."
Vincent suddenly spoke and attracted everyone's attention: "Don't forget that this is a story. There is an omniscient and omnipotent existence helping the protagonist. If we do any unnecessary behavior, if we are lucky, we will be ignored by the story."
Everyone waited for a moment, but Vincent had no intention of continuing. The butler pushed up his thick round glasses like the bottom of a wine bottle and asked, "What if you are less lucky?"
"Just like those stories we have seen, lame characters who want to follow the protagonist secretly will always make stupid noises and be noticed." Vincent continued, telling everyone that they had fallen into a misunderstanding: "This is a story.
No matter what kind of trouble the protagonist encounters, he will always get out of trouble, and the unlucky ones can only be other people."
Vincent's prompt made everyone think. Petra agreed, but had her own thoughts: "But we always have to know what will happen next."
"Then what?" Vincent spread his palms. "We can't change anything. The story will inevitably follow its path until the end."
All they can do is barely protect themselves.
Petra was silent for a moment, and her questioning eyes fell on Lu Li.
This is probably the difference between night watchmen and investigators.
"It all makes sense." Lu Li said calmly.
Vincent took out his pipe, smiled and said, "We don't want to hear what politicians say from your mouth."
Lu Li continued: "Then let's all agree, let's get close but keep a distance, as long as we hear the 'voice'"
"I have no problem." The baron said to Lu Li. Her dress and expression made her look like the girl next door talking to her crush.
laugh--
After striking a match and lighting the tobacco, Vincent put out the match and put it in his pocket, saying nonchalantly: "Since the employer has decided, I will do as you say."
They walked into the room closest to the woodshed in the mansion. Several maids living in the room had already left early.
Close to the window, the outline of the woodshed was vaguely revealed amidst the pounding rain and the flashing thunder.
The obscure ancient reason never sounded. I don’t know because there is no plot at the moment, or because they are still too far away...
After standing in front of the window and waiting for a few minutes, until the fog on the glass covered the entire window, there was still no movement from the cabin in the distance.
Petra looked at everyone: "Maybe we should get closer."
Vincent put away his extinguished pipe: "It's raining heavily outside. It's unknown whether I can get up again after getting sick at my age."
This is of course an excuse. With the Baron as his backyard, it would be difficult for him to get sick.
"Then Lu Li and I will approach the woodshed." Petra asked Lu Li for his opinion, and after it was not rejected, she said, "The Baron and Vincent stay here."
Unable to wear umbrellas and raincoats, Lu Li and Petra walked out of the mansion under the leadership of a maid and stepped into the rain.
The rain instantly wetted their servant uniforms, and the accumulated water flowed along the path to the lower Agate Lake.
The two approached the vaguely outlined woodshed and appeared in the sight of several people in the maid's room.
Lu Li and Petra paused for a moment in front of the door of the woodshed, which made them feel strange as they pushed the door open and walked into the dim woodshed.
"What did they find?" the butler whispered.
The truth is similar, they heard the obscure ancient sound. In other words, because of their arrival, the obscure ancient sound sounded again.
[Sarah has been in the woodshed for a long time. Servant Lu Li, who was following Sara under the order of the Viscount, and servant Petra looked at each other, quietly opened the door and walked into the woodshed. 】
[Floating dust was floating by the door. Servant Lu Li and servant Petra looked around the woodshed, but did not find the eldest lady. "Where is the eldest lady?" Servant Petra asked doubtfully. "Look at the ground..." Servant Lu Li suddenly pointed at
On the floor, messy new footprints extend forward from their feet——】
The Shadow of the Thread rationalizes their behavior.
After doing so, the plot began to take on new changes.
[But suddenly, a large cloud of dust fell, captivating the servant Petra's eyes. When Petra stumbled in panic, a figure suddenly appeared behind the servant Lu Li. ]
[Sara, who was standing by the door, swung the shovel and smashed it into the back of the servant Lu Li.]
"careful!"
Anna's exclamation was heard in her ears, and a soft force emerged behind her with a cold aura, pushing Lu Li out, causing him to fall forward a few steps while dodging the falling shovel.
call--
A strong wind blew behind my head.
"What are you doing here?" Lu Li turned around and said after standing firm.
In the dim doorway of the woodshed, a dark figure of Sarah stood holding a shovel.
Petra barely rubbed her eyes open and looked warily.
"What are you doing here?" the frightened servant Lu Li gasped. "Help me get it...I'm so sorry, I almost hit you." Sara quickly handed the shovel to the servant Lu Li and said apologetically, "I want to
I need to get a shovel to repair the flowerbed. I saw you coming over and wanted to say hello but accidentally... Petra, are you okay?"]
[Sarah’s delicate face is full of innocence, it looks like an accident. 】
"Of course it's okay, it's just some dust." The servant Petra grinned and said nonchalantly. The servant Lu Li glared at Petra and said helplessly to Sara: "Miss, there is no way to use a shovel in the flower garden.
Repair. You can leave this kind of thing to the gardener, you don’t have to do it yourself.”]
