"The literal meaning may mean that this is the third story."
"Let me see...the third part of a work called The Nightmare?"
"Um."
"A series of stories? It feels like there is a deeper meaning..." As a nobleman, the Baron is more sensitive to this kind of conspiracy. "We should be safe, right? The story is over."
The baron suddenly felt uneasy, as if some existence was spying on them.
"Maybe." Lu Li replied.
It's so weird that it's difficult to deduce it with common sense and logic. Just like no one would have thought that Lu Li and the Baron were saved only because of a cough from the sick Lu Li.
If Sara had chosen to kill Lu Li first, Petra might not have to die. But it is also possible that without Petra's last words, the three people who lacked the identity of "sent by her mother to take care of her" would have been killed by Sara.
"That must be the case! These stories are related to each other, otherwise there is no way to explain why the plot of Adam and Sarah falling in love has never appeared!"
The Baron feels that he is getting closer to the truth: "This plot may appear in other stories, such as part 2!"
"Maybe Adam is the devil in disguise." Lu Li said another possibility.
Silence suddenly fell on the terrace, leaving only the whimpers blown by the wind.
"No way..." The baron suddenly became breathless.
If so, then this story from beginning to end is the devil's conspiracy against Sarah - in order to take her to hell.
"The devil can turn into Uncle Andrew and make Sarah forget that he is dead. Of course, he can also turn into Adam and fall in love with Sarah, and use death to make Sarah's temperament change drastically." Lu Li said. To lure mortals to make mistakes and fall into hell, this
It is indeed like the behavior of the devil.
Speaking of devils…
"Does hell really exist?" Lu Li asked and looked at the butler. He knew that the baron didn't know anything.
Although there are all kinds of weirdness and ghosts after death in this world, Lu Li always connects it with the religious hell.
If hell does exist, does it mean there is heaven?
As the world approaches collapse, where has God gone?
"Are you referring to the religious hell or the real hell?" the steward asked.
"Real."
"The place where people are rumored to go after death is full of magma and sulfur and collapsed buildings. There is no difference between the hell in religion and the real hell. It's just that the latter doesn't have the familiar devils in religion."
"Then how to distinguish the real hell?"
The butler looked at Lu Li: "This is your exorcist's specialty."
"What's your specialty?" Lu Li never knew what an exorcist was going to do, and no one taught him - after all, he started calling himself an exorcist after getting the psychic gun.
The butler's eyes began to look strange when he looked at Lu Li: "Many exorcists claim that they can communicate with the dead in hell and communicate with their relatives and friends on their behalf."
"Is it true?"
After a brief silence, the housekeeper replied: "You can ask your colleagues."
"I will." Lu Li thought of Hades and asked him about the authenticity of this matter, and continued, "What about heaven?"
This time the butler's answer was firm: "It only exists in religion."
It is normal for people in the abyss to hallucinate the light, but this is really desperate news.
Faced with the strange invasion of this world, people have no allies.
After thinking for a while, the housekeeper told Lu Li: "You can learn about these things from the inside of the investigators. They know far more than us."
Lu Li nodded.
Housekeeper Lulu turned her gaze back and found that the Baron was still lost in the devil's conspiracy: "Don't worry Baron, this is just a fictional story."
"I'm not worried, I just feel pity for Sarah." The baron waved his hand to show that he was fine, then looked down and saw one of his legs missing. "Okay, I seem to be about the same."
Sarah may be pitiful, but even more pitiful are these unrelated victims.
The wind is a bit strong on the terrace,
However, the Baron still wanted to stay for a while, and she knew that Lu Li would probably leave the Baron's Mansion after returning.
"What do you want to do next?" asked the baron.
Lu Li thought.
Four pieces of deep sea stone were delivered to the warehouse on Elm Street a few days ago, which is almost enough to lay a layer of 10 centimeters thick anti-monster protection at the refuge site.
Therefore, Lu Li wanted to accumulate as much supplies as possible.
I hope the canned goods haven’t gone up too high now.
"Store supplies, then hide and observe the situation."
The housekeeper nodded slightly. Lu Li's behavior could avoid danger to the greatest extent, and she would do the same thing.
She planned to contact the Exorcists United Organization later and ask the Baron to join the Refuge Point Project to ensure the continuation of the family before the upcoming crisis.
"Supplies? What do you need?" The baron raised his voice.
She felt she could help.
"A lot of cans." Lu Li's voice sounded at the same time as the baron finished speaking.
It would be great if we could solve the last problem here.
"Lulu." The baron looked up at the butler.
"Tomorrow at the latest, what you want will be delivered to your detective agency." The butler said formulaically.
"Can I go find you?" the baron asked, holding his chin.
"Your current body is not suitable for walking around." The housekeeper stopped him.
The baron thought for a while and changed his words: "Can I go to you when I feel uneasy and scared?"
The housekeeper had no excuse to stop it.
"I will move out soon." Lu Li replied. He had already received too many things from the Baron, and it would be difficult for him to continue to receive them——
"Move? Where are you going?"
"Elm Forest."
The baron waved to the butler: "Buy the Elm Forest and give it to Lu Li."
"The Elm Forest is an unclaimed land and does not belong to anyone." The steward replied.
"That's a pity." The Baron said regretfully.
The chilly wind began to blow endlessly across the terrace, and the dark clouds on the sea were closer to Belfast than before.
Lu Li was ready to leave.
Although staying at the Baron's Mansion was more conducive to recovering from his injuries and there was plenty of food, Lu Li didn't have much time to waste.
The carriage stopped in front of the mansion. The baron and the butler in the brand new wooden wheelchair watched Lu Li step into the carriage and the curtain fell.
Da da da——
Amidst the crisp sound of horseshoes, the carriage made a half circle around the fountain and headed towards the gate.
"He saved my life." The baron complained dissatisfiedly as he watched the carriage drive away. "You didn't give me anything."
"We have paid the reward." The butler was always expressionless towards the baron.
"The life of the famous Baron Joseph is only worth 50,000 shillings?" The baron was even more dissatisfied and suddenly had a good idea: "How about giving him a street!"
"...Please stop selling off your property. I have already prepared a gift for Sir Lu Li in the carriage, and he won't want it."
…
"Thank you, I'll accept it."
Lu Li took the gift box from the groom and nodded his thanks.
The gate of the manor opened and the carriage slowly drove out of Baron Joseph's manor.
