After the high-level leaders of the meeting left, Earl Patrick's apparent refreshment suddenly disappeared, and his face was tired. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
For this Magic Academy's activities, the Earl insisted on holding a meeting late at night despite taking medicine in the case of a fever.
Cecil walked over, took out a brown medicine bottle from his pocket, handed it to Patrick, and said worriedly, "Sir, you should think about your body, you just saw a doctor in the afternoon." ”
"It's okay, my body, I know it myself, don't make a noise. Patrick stepped down the pill and said to Cecil.
Cecil stopped talking, but in the end he didn't say anything. After all, following Patrick for so many years, he has always insisted on doing his best for the Magic Academy, and let him rest well, it is also a very stubborn old man who has no negotiation.
Magnolia left the conference room and saw Salome, the second-year commander-in-chief, in the distance in the hallway. She has always had an inexplicable dislike for Salome, because the students in the Wizarding Academy rumored that Salome was a woman who would have bad luck if anyone stared into her eyes, so they had to take a detour when they met her.
Salome, who came to the face, had a beautiful appearance, bright eyes and bright teeth, waist-length hair as soft and shiny as black satin, snow-white and smooth fragrant skin, wearing a pure white lapel dress, black stockings and white elegant Mary Jane high heels, and carrying a white one-shoulder bag in her left hand.
The figure is slender and slender, about 1.72 meters, like a white rose with soft branches, curling and graceful, elegant and beautiful.
However, although the facial features are delicate and moving, the whole body exudes a gloomy and cold aura like a resentful spirit, coupled with super long black hair and white snow skin, a feminine appearance and a taciturn character, it is almost a resentful spirit that appears in the dark night graveyard.
Therefore, although Salome has the identity of a high-level summoner, she is a figure who is avoided by students in the Magic Academy, and she has not been confessed by anyone, she is twenty-nine years old, she is still single, and it is said that she has not been in love once.
She had very few classes and was a rather unpleasant magician teacher. Compared with Abbigar and Scorti, who are popular with students, Salome can be said to be a cold woman.
But Magnolia didn't believe these rumors at all, she walked over, then stared at Salome, and then said with bad intentions: "Miss Kinsella, isn't it a bad feeling to be alone. Then he passed by with a smile on his face.
Salome's dark green pupils were unwavering, exuding a deep and cold aura.
Just as Magnolia walked under the cherry blossom tree, a cold breath like water greeted her, and the beautiful moonlight cast on the ground to form an elegant light and shadow, and there seemed to be a girl in white with long hair fluttering in front of her, holding a red umbrella in her hand.
Magnolia was suddenly terrified, and she could not say that bad luck would come to her if she stared at Salome, so she could only boldly ask: "Who are you, why don't you go to the dormitory to rest at such a late hour." ”
The girl in front didn't answer, it was really incomprehensible to hold an umbrella at night, Magnolia felt more and more yin, could it be that there was such a thing as a resentful spirit in the world.
Before Magnolia could react, the girl in white suddenly turned around slowly, a white-skinned female ghost with blood-red pupils, Magnolia was suddenly frightened, only to feel that the female ghost's super long hair slowly spread, and then wrapped around her hands, gradually tightened her body, unable to breathe, the terrible white face gradually approached, revealing sharp teeth soaked in blood, "Miss Belgrave, where are you." At this moment, Xia Zuo suddenly appeared and called out to Magnolia.
"Xia Zuo, there was a long-haired white-clothed red-eyed wraith here just now, and she wanted to kill me with her hair. Magnolia said in a panic.
"The red-eyed ghost, but there's nothing. Xia Zuo looked around carefully, and there were any resentful spirits other than Magnolia and himself.
"Really, just over the tree, the wraith was holding a red umbrella. "Magnolia seems a little delirious.
Xia Zuo thought it was strange, she wanted to give some documents to Magnolia, but she didn't expect her to talk nonsense about red-eyed resentful spirits.
He could only comfort: "Miss Belgrave, you better go back to your room and rest early, there is no way there will be resentful spirits in the Magic Academy." ”
"Stop, Xia Zuo, wait a minute, accompany me back to the dormitory, I really saw that red-eyed wraith. Magnolia trembled as if a spirit was at her side.
Xia Zuo was a little confused, but he was also a colleague anyway, so he helped Magnolia, who was a little evil, and went back to Midgard's apartment.
Just after they left, the girl in white suddenly turned into a small paper figure, floating lightly in the air. Salome stepped out of the hallway, a mysterious smile on her lips, and the little paper figure disappeared into the night.
Abigar, who was standing not far away, saw all this, her blue pupils were so empty that she seemed to have no trace of emotion, and she turned away with a blank face.
In front of the library, Maxwell and Gustav were walking together, two men with close friendship and similar tastes, discussing tomorrow's affair about the wind of ruling.
Unbeknownst to them, a hidden weapon flew rapidly behind them, and Gustav squinted at the back during the conversation, and was about to hit Maxwell along the straight track, and hurriedly pushed him away.
"Be careful, there's a hidden weapon in the back!" Gustav shouted, and Maxwell, who was pushed away, avoided the vital point of the hidden weapon, but hit Gustav in the abdomen, and a sharp pain instantly caused him to cry out in pain and fall to his knees.
The weapon that hit him turned out to be a playing card, and Maxwell realized that someone was carrying out the attack.
At this time, the playing cards were densely covered from all directions, and the speed of the wind was like a torrential rain rushing towards the two of them, Maxwell immediately took out a black large-caliber pistol from his coat, and while avoiding the attack of the playing cards with agility, he shot down the powerful playing cards, and the silver bullets pierced the seemingly light playing cards, and with the crisp sound of the bullet casings falling to the ground, the playing cards fell to the ground one after another.
At this moment, Maxwell saw a slender man in a black cloak standing on the roof of the library, with red hair fluttering in the quiet moonlight, holding a deck of playing cards, because he was wearing a white mask, and it was impossible to see whether it was a man or a woman.
Just when Maxwell and the mysterious masked man looked at each other, a strange smile appeared in the pupils of the mysterious man in black, and silver bullets were fired from the barrel of Maxwell's gun at the same time, along the straight track, running directly to the target at the speed of light, hitting the murderer, but the man in black instantly turned into a pile of playing cards, and under the moonlight on the roof, the white playing cards fell to the ground, like light goose feathers fluttering, like ice flowers falling to the ground on a snowy night.
It's just that the library has been closed at this time, and the students have already entered the rest time, otherwise this poker sneak attack will definitely attract onlookers and panic, because Maxwell's pistol is equipped with a muffler, so when the bullet is fired just now, it will not disturb the people around him at all.
"Damn, I almost tracked down the murderer, but I didn't expect to use the doppelganger technique. Maxwell said angrily. The murderer fled, and in this dark night, someone in the Magic Academy actually used playing cards as a secret weapon to attack the senior leaders of the Magic Academy, which is really an unforgivable crime.
Turning around, he found that Gustav had fainted on the ground, the wound on his abdomen had slowly cracked, the blood instantly stained his suit jacket, and the white gloves that had just covered the wound were stained bright red with blood.
He hurriedly walked over and helped Gustav up, and then helped him to his room, and then treated Gustav in an emergency, who was already in shock.
Maxwell pulled out the playing card, a blood-stained ghost card. Then untie Gustav's coat, the white shirt inside is already bright red, but I didn't expect a playing card to cut the skin very sharply and accurately, fortunately the wound is not very deep, although the amount of bleeding is not small, but fortunately it did not cut to the vital point, just below the heart, only a little distance from the heart, it is really dangerous.
Although Maxwell is not a doctor, he is proficient in dealing with wounds, took out a medical kit from the cabinet, applied magic ointment to Gustav, and then carefully bandaged it with a white bandage, and then mixed it with boiled water, pinched Gustav's mouth, and then poured the potion down, the magic clover herbal water is the most commonly used medicine in the medical room of the Magic Academy, which can reduce inflammation and relieve pain, dissolve toxins, and the medicine is mild and has no side effects.
After a while, Gustav woke up, opened his eyes, and the first thing he said was: "There is a hidden weapon!"
"Gustav, calm down, the murderer has fled, if it weren't for your injuries and need first aid, I would definitely notify the entire Magic Academy and do my best to arrest the murderer. Maxwell clenched his fists, his always gentle green eyes radiating a raging rage.
"Maxwell, tomorrow there will be an event in the Magic Academy, the murderer just now may be someone from our Magic Academy, let's suppress the matter first, and then investigate it clearly. Gustav said calmly, although he was very angry that he was injured, but it was imperative not to alarm the Magic Academy, otherwise the incident of the dark night attack would definitely cause panic in the hearts of the people and affect the arrival of the wind of judgment tomorrow.
"You're right, I just saw the murderer, just wearing a mask and wearing black, I don't know if it's a man or a woman, but this person can use playing cards, and we have a ghost card in our hand, with this clue, we will definitely find the murderer. ”
Maxwell analyzed and said seriously, and only after calming down can he judge the direction of things well.
"Gustav, you have a good rest here tonight, after all, the target of this murderer is me, it may be someone else, or it happened to meet us, no matter what, the murderer should not shoot again tonight, but the next operation will definitely be there, we will investigate this matter secretly, I suspect that the murderer is someone from the magic academy." Maxwell said with a serious expression, his green pupils staring at the ghost card on the glass table, stained with fresh blood.
Then he dialed Bruno's phone number and said: "Bruno, let the knights of the Golden Lily Knights be vigilant tonight, I just met a sneaky person at the library, tomorrow is the arrival of the distinguished guests of the royal government, and the safety of the Magic Academy will be handed over to you." ”
"Don't worry, when did my head Goodrick ever derelict in his duties, you said that there are mysterious and suspicious people in the library, don't worry, this life has wings, and our Golden Lily Knights will definitely make it difficult for him to fly. Bruno said loudly on the other end of the phone.
"You'll leave it all to you. Maxwell said reassuringly, and hung up the line.
Then with a wave of his hand, the shutters and door locks were immediately pasted with pieces of magic rune paper, these are magic rune papers with lightning attributes, and the purple note is painted with mysterious runes and red pentagram patterns, which can protect the user himself from being attacked by demons and evil spirits.
If a demon or a resentful spirit comes into contact with a magic talisman, it will be struck by powerful lightning and death.
The moonlight of the dark night gradually dimmed, the bright stars became confused, and everyone in the Magic Wizard Courtyard fell into a sweet dream, except for the Golden Lily Knights, who were guarding the safety of the Magic Wizard Courtyard, everything became quiet and silent.
