34F, Castle Mystery 2
The owner of the footsteps seemed to be holding a candle, and the warm yellow candlelight flickered, reflecting a shadow, and looking at the outline, it was very similar to the brown-haired maid before.
Moran could make out that there was only one person in the footsteps, which meant that Silai was not with her, so it was better for her to avoid this person for now.
She looked around and saw that there was no hiding place around, only a staircase leading to the second floor.
On the second floor, there might be a study or something, and there's always a lot of information hidden in that place, so you can't tell exactly who the house is.
Thinking so, Moran slipped on his tiptoes.
Cautiously ascended the stairs, hiding around the corner, clinging to the wall, and peeping downstairs.
It wasn't long before Moran saw the brown-haired maid walking slowly with a candlestick in hand.
His pale face reflected in the candlelight, and he looked like a walking corpse that had lost his soul.
Moran thought to herself, this maid was holding a candle? that is, she was not hallucinating, and in her eyes, this castle was what Moran saw, damp, cold, and dim, so it had to be lit by candlelight.
In this way, even if Selenya can use it to confuse others, it is not as powerful as Moran imagined. For example, it is not possible to cause multiple people to hallucinate at the same time, or to hallucinate for a certain period of time......
Moran shook his head suddenly, no! In this case, it will be similar to the limitations of the ability! You can't analyze it so calmly! The other party is a ghost! That kind of elusive undead!
Da Da Da –
Moran watched in amazement as the brown-haired maid turned around and stepped up the stairs leading to the second floor.
Are you kidding?
Moran hurriedly stepped back, trying to keep his steps silent, and when he turned around, he seemed to see a slightly open door, from which a little light shone through.
That should be the natural daylight from the outside.
Listening to the footsteps approaching, Moran turned around and entered the room without hesitation.
From the darkness to the lighter place, she quickly saw the whole picture.
- Here's ...... Den?
The study was not large, but it was full of books, messy papers scattered everywhere, and books spread out on the table. But there is no dust on these things, and it looks like someone uses it a lot.
Does that zombie-like maid clean this place often? Looks like Selinya is a resentful who likes books quite a bit.
I don't know why, Moran suddenly has a little more affection for Selenya.
Probably because Moran is also a book lover, right?
But once here......
Although it is a paradise compared to the real European Middle Ages, education is not as widespread, and the price of books is like luxury.
Moran and his younger brother Mokel were able to receive an education, all at the insistence of their mother Mo Ruyan, although they only studied in a nearby city for five or six years, it was enough for Moran to understand the world and make Mokel grow into an excellent teenager.
But the words of the book ......
Their family has no extra money left, and Moran and Mokel share a set.
Because of this, he was ridiculed by the people of the same academy, "If you don't have money, don't come to any academy! Go home, poor ghost!", but he was silenced in Moran's murderous eyes, and then slipped away quietly.
And Moran's own books are only three or five books, still relying on the money he has saved over the years of herding sheep.
[I still know too little about this world......] Moran can't help but think like this all the time, but there is no way.
Moran looked at the study and thought to herself, there are hundreds of books here, if she has enough time, she must stay here and read them all!
- Huh? wait...... It's okay to take a few copies in advance, right?
Moran smiled slightly, then reached for a book on the shelf.
Da Da Da –
Moran's body seemed to freeze, and his outstretched hand hovered in midair.
Could it be that the maid's destination is this study?
Moran was in a cold sweat and looked around in a panic, trying to find a place to hide.
But...... No.
In that case......
Moran bit his heart and pulled out the dark light dagger on his waist.
- Then let me see if you're a zombie or a zombie!
-
Kasbah, restaurant.
The dining table, which can accommodate more than a dozen people, is already covered with all kinds of food at this time, and the roast suckling pig in the middle of the table exudes an attractive aroma.
Even Silai couldn't help but swallow his saliva......
Selinya's red lips raised slightly, drawing a graceful arc, looking at the man opposite, thinking.
That's right, yes, if you can't help it, let's eat it quickly.
There are enough drugs in these "delicacies" that as long as you eat them, you are a lamb who is powerless to resist......
This man is a perfect sacrifice.
Perhaps more perfect than the knights she had ever seen.
"These ...... Is it really all Ellie alone?" asked Silly.
A hint of impatience flashed in Selenya's eyes, but she quickly suppressed it and said with a smile.
"Of course it is. She is a very qualified maid, and she is the best at cooking and serving. Although it is a little cold, it does not prevent her from being excellent...... Honey, try these delicious foods, I promise you'll love it again!"
Selinya watched as Celestia slowly picked up the silver fork and hit the piece of meat that had been cut to an edible size on the plate, and her heart was a little more expectant.
However, before the piece of meat reached his mouth, Cele lowered his fork as if he had picked up something.
"Speaking of which...... Selenya, do you know where my brother's grave is?"
Selenya endured the bruises and said with a smile.
"To the southeast of the forest, there is the ancestral grave of the Chesil family. Ah Xuan was also there. ”
"That'...... Can you tell me more about that day? Maybe I can remember something. Silai said, his golden eyes rippling with unseen grief.
Selenya had to continue to weave lies.
This man has been like this since just now! Sitting at the dining table, he just glanced at the food, and began to ask questions! He even asked if he had never written a diary, even if it was a note or something in his handwriting......
Where is she going to get these things for him! Being able to maintain the illusion until now is her best effort! But Selinya looked at this man, completely alike, if you don't give me notes, I won't eat, there is no way, Selinya asked the brown-haired maid to go to the study to get a copy.
But Selinya didn't have the patience to make up another diary for him, and she had to let the long-winded man eat the food before the brown-haired maid returned!
If it weren't for the fact that she wanted the man's full body, and that group of things would not have been able to carry out complex commands...... She would have killed him a long time ago!
