Chapter 53
"Back to her. Even Mira's breathing was a little heavy, and she could clearly perceive that there was nothing outside the door, that guy was not human......
The intermittent wind, mixed with bits and pieces of bells, the door to the balcony was not closed, and Yuan Yi slept sideways with his back to the balcony, and although his quilt was tightly wrapped, he could still feel the chill in the wind.
Yuan Yi replied: "It's late at night, I don't need to spend it, please go back." The ethereal voice of the old lady came from outside the door again: "The flowers are freshly picked, they are very fresh, don't you really want it?" Yuan Yi: "Thank you, I really don't need it." ”
The footsteps outside the door were gone, very light and light, as if walking on the floor with bare feet, farther and farther away, Yuan Yi's hanging heart finally took it into his stomach.
In a flash!
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The old woman's voice sounded in his room! She was still asking, "Don't you really need it?" The flowers are free, and I will put them on the edge of the bed for you, they are very fresh, and they smell good......
He couldn't move! Except for breathing and blinking, which were normal, he couldn't move at all, as if it wasn't his body. He watched the crouched figure limp to his bedside, gray figure, face unclear, withered old hands, long yellowed nails, black dirt could be clearly seen on the rough lines of the hands.
In this way, after the flowers were placed on the cabinet, a strange fragrance wafted out, and the figure with her back bent walked out of the room, and the door "creaked", and she closed the door after going out, and saw the dry old hand again through the light in the crack in the door.
Able to move, Yuan Yi's body gradually regained consciousness, just like a dream, as if it were a fantasy, he sat up and leaned against the head of the bed, and on the table next to him was a porcelain white vase, with a few red flowers in the vase.
Yuan Yi asked with trepidation, "What was that just now?" Mira replied, "I don't feel any of her breath, she doesn't look like a living thing." "Just now after that strange figure came in, she was ready to fight, fortunately the other party didn't make a move, without knowing the opponent's strength, it is not a good thing to make a rash move.
Mira muttered to herself, "Could it be that a special type of magic is used? A shielding magic that is only used on individuals, although I have not seen it before, it is not theoretically impossible to achieve." Yuan Yi asked, "What is the purpose of her doing this, just to give me flowers in the middle of the night?" Mira replied, "How can I know what she wants to do, with her hidden ability, as long as she is unwilling to show up, no one can detect her." ”
It's really a troublesome matter to take the initiative to come to the door, after this trouble, Yuan Yi has no intention of sleeping, after turning on the light in the room, he sits on the edge of the bed and plays with the vase: "Isn't this just an ordinary wildflower on the side of the road?"
In the six months from Vitra to the royal capital, he had seen many such flowers on the way. Mira came to the real space, took the vase from Yuan Yi's hand, looked at it in his hand, and sniffed it to his nose, there was no strange smell, it was just a very ordinary flower and bottle.
"Huh?" she looked at as if she had found something, and when she looked closely, she found a little dirt from the bottom ring of the bottle, she picked up the black mud and rubbed it in her hand, and said, "It's a little wet, it should have been on the ground before." ”
The bottle is filled with water, so as to prolong the survival time of safflower. Mira held the bottleneck with her left hand, hooked the stem with her index finger, poured out the water from the bottle at an angle, and pressed the index finger of her right hand against the mouth of the bottle to catch the water, the water droplets that should have slipped from her fingertips were suspended on her fingers, and the transparent color turned into a cloudy white after her magic burning.
The bottle was placed back on the table, and Mira said, "It's rice water, and there are other ingredients in it." The series of actions was completed in one go, and Yuan Yi blinked and sighed: "The serious Mira is so handsome." Mira was a little shy and corrected: "I'm a woman, you can't describe me as handsome." In addition to the rice water in the vase, there is also black mud at the bottom, this flower is not picked, it is planted in it, in addition to these two things, there is another ingredient that I am quite concerned about. Yuan Yi asked, "What is it?" The water droplets on Mira's fingers were evaporated by her power, and a rancid smell filled the air: "It's human flesh and blood, and it's also a human with magical power, and when a magician trains his own magic power, magic will invade the flesh and blood." ”
Motoichi's expression became complicated, and he asked incredulously, "Could it be that these flowers are cultivated with human bodies?" Mira said, "I'm afraid that's the case." She recalled the past: "I've seen people raising animals before, and now I've seen people raising flowers, the world is big and there are all kinds of bad people, although I don't know what her purpose is, but I think she should be eyeing you." ”
For no reason, Yuan Yi didn't seem to have offended anyone, so how could he cause this trouble?
Mira said, "Remember what Conwell said during the day. Yuan Yiyi: "Do you mean that this matter has something to do with the disappearance case?" Mira nodded, held her jaw and roamed around the room, and said: "There is the breath of flesh and blood, which means that someone must have suffered, the magic of blood and qi is solidified, the soil is new and the flowers are fresh, as long as they are connected, it will work completely." ”
"But how did she get her eyes on me?" Yuan Yi came back in the morning during the day, and he didn't delay along the way, and returned directly to the academy.
Mira replied: "You can rule us out before we reach the outskirts of the royal capital, and no one can see us when we fly in the sky, then lock the time and place on the way to the academy, now there are two possibilities." Yuan Yi asked: "Which two?" Mira said: "I have already been eyeing you on the way here, or is she squatting in the academy at a fixed point, and the students in the dormitory are her best targets, you are the unlucky person who was chosen, you know, her choice is a magician, the Royal Higher School of Magic just meets her conditions, and the students who stay in the school at night, isn't this a ready-made delicacy that has been prepared?" Mira sat down in her chair: "That's all I can deduce. ”
It's nice to have this information. Yuan Yi was about to go out to take a look at the situation in the dormitory, since the other party's target might be the dormitory, then other classmates might also encounter danger, so he naturally couldn't turn a blind eye and stand by.
Two floors, the rooms of the female classmates are all on the second floor, plus Yuan Yi's room, there are only three spare rooms left on this floor, and there are only twenty meters of corridor back and forth, with yellow candlelight lighting. The three spare rooms, on the opposite side of the entrance of Yuan Yi, deal with his and Yi Yao's room, and the outermost one deals with the stairs.
On the left side of Yuanyi's room, there is the staircase, strictly speaking, the staircase is not against his room, but the exit is close, the staircase is erected in the middle of the corridor, as long as you walk up from below, you will arrive at the door of Yuanyi's bedroom, there are narrow paths on both sides of the stairs, which lead to other bedrooms, a row of five rooms, and there are also five rooms opposite.
Yi Yao didn't like people to make her rest, so when she chose a dormitory, she chose the one that was farthest away from them.
Three empty rooms, Yuan Yi was worried that the person was lurking in the spare room, so he checked them all, at night, even if the action of opening the door was light, it would make a noise and echo in the corridor, even if he was under magic, he would still feel scared, after all, the scene was very weird.
The second floor has been checked, there is no abnormality, there is no room on the first floor, Yuan Yi lit up a flame in his hand, walked down the stairs, and after all, he would have a sense of security with something in his hand, if he met any opponent, he just slapped it.
As soon as I arrived on the first floor, I could hear someone's earth-shaking snoring, as if I was going to demolish the building, the door panel was going to be lifted, but fortunately, the sound insulation on the second floor was good, and the movement on the first floor was not very clear.
Walking to the door of the conference room, Yuan Yi held the doorknob, and clenched his flaming fist with his right hand, the last room, it was better to have nothing in it. He slowly opened the door, which he had only been to once, and it was neatly tidy and unfurnished.
The task he had assigned to himself was also completed, and when he closed the door, a hand suddenly put on his shoulder from behind, and in a hurry, the elbow of his right hand swept back, and the fist struck someone.
I saw that the man crossed his hands to protect his chest, took a few steps back, and said with a smile: "If I hadn't blocked it in time, I might have been beaten out by you." ”
"Yi Yao?" Yuan Yi put down his hand, stepped forward and asked, "Are you okay, did you hurt you just now?" I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you behind me. ”
Yi Yao shook her hands and said with a smile: "It's okay, but Yuan Yi's strength is really amazing." She stared at Yuan Yi's right hand and asked, "Aren't you a wind magician......?"
Ren Yiyao leaked more secrets, and Yuan Yi naturally had nothing to hide from this little, so he replied: "I am a multi-attribute magician." Yi Yao asked curiously, "How many are they?" Yuan Yi didn't speak, Yi Yao understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, you don't have to tell me, everyone has their own little secrets, including me, so I won't care." Yuan Yi asked, "Why did you come down all of a sudden?" Yi Yao replied: "When I was sleeping, I heard the door open outside, and then I saw you coming downstairs, I wanted to follow you and scare you......
I was taken aback, but it's not light, and if I am an elderly person, I am afraid that I will be lying on the ground.
Yuan Yi said: "What kind of bad taste is this. Yi Yao said: "Just kidding, were you looking for something just now?"
