267. The missing fourth person

"How about it, I just said that's a bad note." Vinson raised the rum bottle and signaled to Lu Li. The wine in the bottle swayed. The guy started drinking in the morning like a drunk.

"Do your plan still be implemented?" Lu Li looked at Petra.

He didn't feel much loss on his cheeks—perhaps because the emotions had been vented after they were discovered in the morning.

"Not yet," Petra said.

The Shadow of the Line suddenly caused the supporting actors to appear in the mansion, and no matter how they thought about it, they were all malicious.

If Shadow of the Line has its own consciousness.

"So did you have a similar situation last time?" asked the Baron, who was gracefully cutting a portion of foie gras, to Vincent.

"No, last time we were in the crashed sailboat, the protagonist was us, no one else." Vinson briefly summarized it. This was the first time he mentioned the content of the last ceremony. When he first came, even if the butler promised to pay a lot of rewards.

He couldn't speak either.

"So will this change have an impact on you?" asked Lulu, the butler.

Petra thought for a while and said, "Changes mean new situations, that's for sure. But we have more initiative - at least it's no longer the story that mentions supporting roles, we can only see them."

Lu Li sat down at the long table, and the maid brought double breakfast in front of her. He picked up the knife and fork, and Lu Li ate the food while listening to the information collected by the butler Lulu: The black outlines are in the story of the Viscount Mansion.

characters, chef servant gardener and other background characters. They can be touched, but cannot be communicated, perhaps because the plot has not started yet, or the plot is not on them.

Deeper contacts they didn't do, such as whether they could hurt.

Lu Li chewed food silently, and his black eyes fell on the two black figures in the corner. They seemed to be servants, doing wiping the windows, without any sound, and occasionally lightning that cuts through the clouds will set off them.

A strange and terrifying figure.

Lu Li thought of something and looked around the long table without finding any new faces: "Where are the newly added members?"

Yesterday, the butler mentioned that he would continue to invite new exorcists.

The sound of cutting and chewing in the restaurant suddenly disappeared, and only Vincent was still pouring wine into his mouth.

Petra resumed his movements and sighed: "He is dead."

Lu Li frowned slightly: "The rules have changed?"

Sarah wakes up and outsiders will be pulled into the ceremony when the chapter begins.

There is still half an hour before the beginning.

The butler Lulu took the speech and said to Lu Li: "It has nothing to do with us. The exorcist died in the hands of strangers. When we contacted him earlier, the police station told us that he was missing."

Petra nodded: "I checked it with a messenger. The unlucky guy encountered a resentful spirit last night and then disappeared."

A little bit optimistic, maybe the exorcist is just missing rather than dead - but unfortunately this kind of mood is not suitable for exorcist, and people can at most enjoy the suffering: look, fortunately it is just a resentful spirit rather than an evil spirit.

"In Belfast?" Lu Li's brow did not relax.

“In Belfast.”

Lu Li silently wrote down, intending to summon the messenger when he is free later to check what new events are in the Belfast range.

"Don't worry, Belfast is a big city, and there are many powerful demon-eligraphers protecting this place." Petra saw some Lu Li's thoughts and comforted him.

As soon as the words fell, Vincent's mocking voice came next to him.

"'Don't worry, Belfast is a big city, with powerful demon-killers protecting it'." Vinson imitated it in an imitation: "Hey! More than one hundred thousand citizens of Zernst were also at the beginning.

Thinking so."

Petra fell silent and his face turned ugly.

Lu Li was watching quietly. The pessimism revealed in Vinson's words made Lu Li think that he was the same as himself, but the next moment, Lu Li found that the same pessimism had appeared on Petra's face.

Suddenly it seemed that everyone no longer had hope for the future.

Does this mean that the end of the world is approaching?

"Enough." The housekeeper called Vinson's sarcasm. Although she did not like Vinson's character, his experience was necessary for everyone.

"Listen to you, Lord Butler." Vinson stood up, bowed exaggeratedly, and sat back into the chair: "But I don't think you need to be slutty with a dying person, right?"

"Are you terminally ill?" Lulu asked with a frown.

This is not in the information she found.

"No, I'm very good, I can have a few more bottles." Vinson shook the bottle of wine that was about to come to the bottom. "I escaped by chance at this last ceremony. There is a proverb in my hometown that is 'If'

If you don’t have awe, the same river will drown you twice. To be honest, I am not like you, who have many naive imaginations because of ignorance. I know very clearly that this ceremony will be the end of my life."

Vinson took a big sip of wine and said drunk.

It is hard to say whether he vented because he wanted to vent or simply got drunk.

Perhaps he is very similar to Lu Li, and he will make plans for the worst in advance for everything.

After all, he had faced the fear of the shadow of the line.

"You're drunk too much." Petra said helplessly by taking away the empty bottle of wine from Vinson's hand.

"No, my brain is very clear--being at all times is the principle of the night watchman." Vinson curled his lips.

"So too, the investigator." Petra said.

The housekeeper glanced at the clock and said, "Now there is one person missing, I will make up for the vacancy."

"No." The Baron refused. "Most people have only heard of the bad things of Baron Joseph, but they have never seen them. If I die at its hands, you will be the next Baron Joseph, and continue the Joseph family's estate.

Continue.”

Perhaps infected by Vincent, the Baron's tone became more pessimistic.

"Now is not the time to talk about this." The housekeeper did not intend to continue talking about this topic.

Everyone waited for Lu Li to finish his breakfast, changed his clothes, and entered the bedroom to wait.

The baron specially locked the door so that the butler would not rush in to join the ceremony.

Boom-

The muffled thunder echoed in the clouds, and the obscure and ancient sound slowly emerged.

【Chapter 8 Twisted Resurrection】

Every day is the most peaceful time when the plot begins, and today is no exception. Sarah wakes up in the bright weather without a paranormal and gloomy inner narration, everything looks normal.

Until Petra was separated from the crowd.

[Servant Petra was walking in the corridor leading to the restaurant. Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure appearing on the corner in front, it was Rolla!]

Lightning and thunder outside the window, heavy rain fell, and a dark figure appeared in Petra's sight.

It poked half of its body from the corner, raised an arm, and waved gently to it.

[When his good friend came back, the servant Petra ran to Laura happily.]
