Chapter 239: Leeds' Manor (26)

"Shouldn't you, as Mr. Will's assistant, inherit Mr. Will's unfinished business?"

"This ......"

"It won't hurt you." The butler further added, "Investigating the cause of death of the deceased and finding out who is a matter of great value to you, Mr. White personally. As far as I know, you're here primarily to regain your trust, aren't you? ”

This is not Lao Tzu's purpose at all, right?

Chi Yu wanted to yell like this, but reason stopped him, and even made him nod happily in recognition of the other party's words.

In any case, this is an opportunity, even if there is no NPC to remind him, he will take the initiative to investigate the truth behind all this, and only by sorting out all the lines can he complete this tricky task.

However......

Chi Yu's purpose is not just to complete the task, he is the kind of person who often wants to find some treasures from the dungeon, and if he can, he will not let go of any opportunity to obtain benefits.

"If I find out the cause of Will's death, will you reward me?"

"What do you want?"

"I ...... Well, it depends on what you can give me. Chi Yu's standard scoundrel face, "I'm a person, only with a little reward can I have the motivation to do things." ”

Chi Yu's full rogue energy made the housekeeper show a look of disgust, and her good cultivation made her not say anything very ugly, but the tone of her speech was still a lot tougher.

"Money? Or is it ...... The Countess's commendation? I'm sorry, Mr. White, but I don't like to promise people in advance, and it seems to me that you may not be able to find out the truth, so please don't be too confident! ”

After saying this, the housekeeper's favorability dropped a little, but Chi Yu was so angry.

Isn't it just a test of the NPCs!

I can't stand the temptation!

If you don't give it, you won't give it, why are you still angry!

Of course, complaining is complaining, and things have to go on. Under the guidance of the servant, Chi Yu came to the basement where the corpse was parked and saw Will's body.

"There were no obvious external injuries to the corpse, but the appearance of bleeding from the seven orifices was a little oozing...... Well, well, it's time to summon a prescription. ”

Muttering, Chi Yu took out the prescription of the prop You Doctor, and when he was about to stick the prescription to Will, a cold hand grabbed his wrist and forcibly stopped him.

“…… Wait, I'm not dead yet. ”

“……”

"Ahem, ahem...... Don't gossip yet, you help me up. ”

“……”

How dare Chi Yu help him up!

A guy whose body temperature and heartbeat are all dead people's templates, suddenly open his eyes, suddenly speak, if his heart is not strong enough, won't he be scared to death on the spot?

Rao is a bold and fat man like Chi Yu, and he almost fainted, but he just stood there with a breath, holding his breath and staring at Will who was suddenly resurrected.

"People are scared to death!" Chi Yu gritted his teeth, "Could you please inform me in advance?" Who are you scaring with a sudden corpse?! ”

"This kind of thing happens once or twice a year, and it's not surprising." Will sat up expressionlessly, "There will always be someone who is not needed by the devil who will be resurrected, and this person, the ultimate prey, will witness the last night of revelry...... Well, until then, I wish I could do something to stop this. ”

"It doesn't matter! The important thing is that you scared me, do you have to apologize to me first? Chi Yu finally exhaled the breath he was holding, and sat down on the ground paved with ice cubes, not caring if it was cold or not, "What the hell is going on with you?" ”

"That's what it's like, it's not good, it's not bad, it's not dead or alive." Will sighed, and his eyes moved to the prescription in Chi Yu's hand, "Man, to be honest, I was also shocked when I saw that thing in your hand, are you going to use that yellow paper for what?" ”

"It doesn't matter either! You have to apologize to me, big brother! Chi Yu stuffed the prescription into his pants pocket, "Forget it, apologies or not, it's all a bit of vain things, let's not pay attention to that set between the old men, let's go straight to the point." ”

"Theme?" Will frowned, "Are you trying to get something out of me?" ”

Yes, that's right!

That's what you say!

Tell me everything you know!

Chi Yu was roaring in his heart, but he didn't show it at all on his face, and he still spoke like a hanger: "What is this called?" That's ugly! We had the night anyway...... Uh, no, it's a fateful friendship! What's wrong with exchanging information with each other? We have to be honest with each other! Be honest with each other! Isn't that right? ”

Will was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

Chi Yu's eloquence has been defeated even by the Grim Reaper, and if he wants to defeat a mere detective at this time, of course it is not a problem.

"You and I meet in Pingshui, to put it bluntly, no one knows anyone, out of this door, you take your Yangguan Road, I cross my single-plank bridge, as long as you don't say, I don't say, no one will know what you told me!"

"You seem suspicious of me? Rest assured, my mouth is as tight as my anus...... Uh, no, it's as tight as an iron door! ”

“…… Okay, come on, come on, tell me, what was that ghost last night? ”

……

Under Chi Yu's strong persuasion, Will reluctantly opened his mouth and slowly and leisurely talked about the story that had been sealed for a long time.

The story is long, but what is important is not the story itself, but the ending that caused serious consequences after this long and bloody story.

Day after day, year after year.

The story itself may have been forgotten by everyone, but the influence of that story has been retained many years later, and in Will's intermittent explanations, Chi Yu finally understood the story behind the mansion.

One night more than 100 years ago, the countess, who had been seriously ill for many years, came to the end of her life. In order to keep the woman he loved, the Count scattered all his wealth in order to find some way to bring the dead back to life, and then a young man dressed in an ancient dress appeared at the Earl's Court.

"If you want to raise the dead, you need more dead," said the young man.

"I just want to keep my love," replied the Count.

The Earl was a good man, and he hesitated for a moment after hearing the young man's advice.

I just hesitated for a moment.

His love for his wife overcame his kindness and turned him into a madman who lost his mind.
