Chapter 579

When Edwin sensed that someone had infiltrated the room, the intruder also knew that Edwin had discovered his presence, and he reacted with a preemptive strike!

A figure suddenly burst out of the shadows, ran to Edwin's side at great speed, and pulled out a pistol and pointed it at his head without seemingly reacting, this series of actions took only a few seconds, which was simply beyond the limits of what ordinary people could do.

"Don't move, you don't want a bullet hole in your head, do you?"

This voice is quite neutral, at first glance you can't hear the difference between men and women, but if you taste it carefully, you can hear that he is not him, but her, because her voice has a trace of delicacy and softness that belongs to a woman after all, and it is obvious that this neutral voice is also deliberately said by her.

Edwin raised his hands and turned his gaze to the infiltrator who was pointing a gun at him, this person was about twenty-five or sixteen years old, his face was not decorated with any makeup, he looked a little rough, and his dress was very neutral, of course, this was most likely not her real face, but he was not curious about it.

Seeing Edwin cooperate, the infiltrator couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, to be honest, she didn't want him to resist, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble, if it alarmed the old butler, although she didn't care much, but she didn't want to add an innocent life to her hands.

"I'm honored to tell you now that your journey here is over, leave Blackwater Island immediately, or you will bear the consequences!"

Pushed by the woman, Edwin stumbled, and took the opportunity to snatch the gun from his hand with a backhand that was not inferior to the man's previous shot, and the situation of the two was reversed.

It was the first time someone pointed a gun at her head, and the woman was stunned, angry, and a little funny, and said very calmly, "You better know what you're doing, if you kill me, you will be unable to move an inch on Blackwater Island!" ”

Edwin was noncommittal about the danger, and asked his own doubts, "I'd love to know why you're following me, I don't seem to have anything special to pay attention to, do I?" Worth it all the way from the tavern? ”

The woman pursed her lips, not seemingly intending to answer Edwin's question, and kept her own silence.

Edwin had anticipated this, and silently recited a spell of mind control magic in his mind to try to control it for a short time, but a strange scene happened.

The ripples belonging to the magic were bounced away by an invisible force as they approached the woman.

Edwin was stunned and tried another magic trick again, but it turned out to be the same.

One may be an accident, and the second is not a coincidence, which shows that this woman has the power to break magic, it is likely to be herself, it is likely to be a thing, in short, it is impossible to use magic to try to make this woman speak.

After a moment of silence, Edwin changed his approach, the way he talked, "Since you won't say it, let me guess if my actions have violated the taboo of this island?" ”

The woman was silent, but a hint of strange color flashed in the depths of her eyes, obviously because of Edwin's words, it seemed that she was on her mind, but she concealed it so well that at least ordinary people couldn't see the change in her expression at all.

However, this trace of discoloration was finally captured by Edwin, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he asked the second question, "Is there something strange about the death of the Hawkins family?" ”

This sentence made a hint of mockery flash in the woman's eyes, as if to say to Edwin, don't waste any more effort, I won't tell you anything.

Undeterred, Edwin continued to ask, "Were the Hawkins not killed by fire as they are known?" Is the painting with its mysterious power still in this villa? Are you hiding the secret of the death of the Hawkins family three years ago? ”

As the questions continued, the woman turned a deaf ear to this, and even simply closed her eyes and ignored her, so that Edwin lost even the way to interrogate her.

Even if the patience is good, it will be used up, especially when the object of interrogation does not enter the oil and salt, you will feel that she is simply the most hateful guy, obviously life and death are in her own hands, but she is still a dead duck with a hard mouth, and she simply doesn't know what to do.

There was a moment of annoyance, and then reason dissipated the anger, and Edwin suddenly raised his gun and knocked her unconscious under the woman's surprised look.

If he can't ask, then he simply doesn't ask, he hasn't forgotten the purpose of his coming here, so why waste time on this woman?

After knocking the woman unconscious, Edwin placed her in a closet in one of the rooms, and then went around the villa again to find the whereabouts of the key.

On the other side, the girl followed Edwin's footsteps to Hawkins' manor, looking at the manor full of antiquity and corruption, the gloomy aura couldn't help but shiver, and a trace of fear rose in her heart made her want to retreat, but in order to figure out what Edwin was going to do, she still stepped on the steps.

After receiving two good payments, the driver drove his car happily on the way back to the town, at this moment he couldn't help but start fantasizing about his plans for the next few years, he planned to suspend his work and travel to cities other than Blackwater Island, if the scenery was good, he could even consider settling down, in short, how comfortable and how to come. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but hum a pleasant tune.

However, Le Ji is easy to be sad, when driving on the road down the mountain, a black shadow suddenly came out to obscure his vision, so that he subconsciously hit the steering wheel, this deviation does not matter, he and the car instantly rushed down the mountain road, rolled down the hillside that is not high, and disappeared into the dense forest.

I'm afraid he didn't think until he died, this time was the last time he got out of the car, the so-called money has no life to spend, I'm afraid he regretted that he didn't listen to other people's admonitions a second before he died, this is a curse!

On top of the fence of the mountain road that had been broken, a hideous and terrifying figure exuded light around it, making it impossible to see its appearance, as if looking down at the place where the commander fell, and after a long time, it jumped down.

Soon, a group of birds were startled in the dense forest, and a creepy noise was heard.

No one will notice this scene, let alone anyone will find out, because no one dares to approach here, close to this mountain, close to this manor, because this is the death zone.

But it was said that the girl finally came to the gate of the manor, and looked at the closed gate, which was locked from the inside out, in other words, there were still people living in it.

The girl thought for a moment, knocked on the brass ring above the iron door, and the long-lost knock came into the back garden, and in the ears of the old butler, who was cleaning the weeds for the grave, his cloudy eyes flashed with a hint of strangeness.

With his hoe in hand, he slowly stood up and walked slowly in the direction of the manor gate.

The girl looked at the old butler who was gradually approaching the gate from a distance, and a smile appeared on her face, "This old gentleman, do you see anyone else here?" ”

The old housekeeper glanced at her lightly and said, "No one has been here for three years, and I am the only one who lives here, and if anyone appears, they will not hide it from me." So if you're looking for someone, you're going to be disappointed. ”

The girl didn't suspect it when she heard this, because she used her superpowers to find out what the other party was thinking at the moment, and found that he had indeed never seen Edwin.

However, the memories read from the driver told her that Edwin had indeed arrived, and that the memory was the back of him walking towards the manor.

Could it be that he sneaked in? What was there in there that could have made him do such a very secret act? At this moment, the girl's heart was full of curiosity.

After almost thinking about it, it was certain that Edwin was in the manor, and the girl was thinking of a way to get in.

Looking at the old butler in front of her, the girl's face showed a hint of playfulness, what better way than to let the person who lives here open the door himself?

The girl's eyes flashed, and she saw a trace of confusion in the old butler's eyes, and he trembled and took out the key from his bosom to open the lock on the door, and after letting the girl in, he locked the door again.

It wasn't until the girl entered the manor that the eyes of the old butler standing at the iron gate regained clarity, and at the same time couldn't help but be confused, "Strange, why am I here at the gate?" Hey, it's really getting old, and my memory is getting worse and worse..."

Shaking his head and lamenting his uselessness, the old butler continued to pull out the weeds on the side of the grave.

The girl crept into the manor and began to look around the burned manor, trying to find the familiar figure, but found nothing.

Could it be that he has already left here?

The idea was dismissed the moment it popped up, and if Edwin left, it would not have been possible to hide it from her eyes, and the two of them had only been in front of each other for just over an hour, so she could be sure that Edwin was in this manor.

As the girl continued to search for Edwin's traces, a noise came from a room that caught her attention, but seeing her approaching the room, she cautiously opened the door, for fear of alarming Edwin, who might be inside.

However, the door opened, and it was not Edwin inside, and the closet was pushed open, revealing the groggy neutral woman within.

Seeing her, the girl subconsciously wanted to read her memory, but something surprising happened.

Her tried-and-true abilities have failed? Obviously, she had already controlled the old butler to open the door just now, why did she not work with this woman?

Unconvinced, she continued to try to use her powers, but to no avail, instead causing the unisex woman to gradually regain her consciousness.

The girl who felt bad left in a hurry, for fear that the neutral woman who woke up would be bad for her, but she was still a step too late, and just before she was about to leave the room, her shoulder had been pressed by the neutral woman's hand, and she felt that half of her shoulder was paralyzed and could not move.

"What's going on today? Why are they running to this place one by two? Aren't you afraid of dying by a curse? The unisex woman gritted her teeth, apparently still a little resentful of being knocked unconscious by Edwin before.

The girl was still struggling, but when she heard this, she didn't move, her sapphire eyes were spinning, and it was obvious that this man-like woman had seen Edwin, which also showed that her previous guess was correct.

"Hey, who are you? Why is it here? Don't tell me you're lost and stumbled here, without a reasonable explanation..."

Hearing such words that almost threatened her life, the girl made an innocent look, "I came to find my brother, do you know where he is?" According to the driver, he seems to have come here. ”

"Brother?" Suddenly thinking of Edwin, who knocked himself unconscious, the neutral woman's complexion became very ugly, "Is it a guy with gray hair, blue eyes, and a black trench coat?" ”

The girl nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, it's him!" ”

The neutral woman suddenly sneered, "Your brother is really ruthless, knocked me out here, took my gun, and ignored my warning!" ”

When the girl heard this, she immediately made a timid look, "If my brother offended you, I apologize to you." ”

Hearing the girl's words, the neutral woman looked at the immature face again, and most of the anger in her heart dissipated, and she said helplessly, "Forget it, that guy is really lucky to have a sister like you." ”

The girl turned into a simple mode at the moment, making a quail appearance to a neutral woman, and immediately won her favor.

You must know that every woman has a maternal side, even if she has no children, it can also be seen from here that the girl's acting skills are exquisite, and at the same time, the scheming of neutral women does not seem to be deep.

As a result, the neutral woman who was going to coerce Edwin's 'sister' to question her teacher has now become a nanny with her sister looking for her brother.

From the conversation with her, the girl also learned the name of the unisex woman, called Margaret, the guardian of the underground order on this island, in other words, the leader of an underground organization.

At the same time, she also knows why Margaret wants to drive Edwin away, because there is a 'curse' here!

For a girl who admires science, a curse or something is simply nonsense, because this kind of thing is not scientific at all, although she disdains it in her heart, but she still has to make a look of surprise and fear on the surface.

"Why is there a curse here? Could it be that the curse really kills everyone here? ”

Margaret replied, "That's because someone has cast an evil power here, and that power will kill everyone who enters here, so it is called a curse, your brother does not know whether he is alive or dead, and he entered here rashly, I am afraid at this moment..."

Although the girl didn't believe in the curse, she still had worries about Edwin in her heart.
