Volume 2 The Puppet Chapter 42 Role-playing
Chapter 42 Role-playing
Corelli woke up from her nightmare again, her forehead covered with cold sweat, and Corelli turned her head to look at Mino, who was still asleep, but the expression on her face became complicated.
It's been three days since that night, and although everything is back to normal once again on the surface, Corelli is as busy as ever, and Mino waits for Corelli's return every day.
But Corelli sensed acutely that something had changed.
Mino's heart has begun to become distorted, and such words are definitely not for a child to say!
Corelli had been having nightmares for three days in a row, and in the dream, Mino was standing so quietly in front of her, the blood all over her body was sliding down drop by drop, and the ground had merged into a red stream, and Mino stood in the blood, staring at herself with wide eyes, and asked in a questioning tone:
"Sister, Mino feels so painful, Mino has endured all the pain, when will my sister take me out of here? Sister, when will the promised promise be fulfilled? Sister...... Sister ......"
Corelli turned and fled in horror, but the sound of Mino calling "sister" behind her never stopped, and Corelli ran and ran, ran so far, until she ran out of strength, and when she turned around, Mino still stood there quietly, as if she had never left, and asked the same words in the same voice.
Corelli took two steps back in fear, but a red rope suddenly tensed between the two, and the red liquid bounced onto Corelli's face, and Corelli realized that she and Mino had been connected by the rope at some point.
And what made Corelli panic the most was that two figures slowly appeared behind Mino, who were the parents who brought her endless pain, and now, the two parents were also tied with the same rope, connected to Mino, and also connected to Corelli herself......
......
"Enough!"
Looking at the picture reflected in the crystal ball, Thousand Faces finally couldn't bear it anymore and waved his hand to interrupt the magic link of the crystal ball.
"Ahh
"Anansias, I'm not interested in pandering to your bad tastes, so I need to know what the point of you doing this?" asked Ancias with a cold face.
"Bad taste? You said it was my bad taste, so what else is the point?" An An fiddled with his nails and asked rhetorically, "Besides, I just provided a rough script, but the performer on the stage is you! Hey! Thousand Faces, I'm really curious, what kind of experience can make you have such superb acting skills?"
Senmian didn't speak, just looked at it coldly
Ann.
"Hey, hey, hey! I'm just asking, don't be so nervous!" An An shrugged his shoulders casually and said, "People! They are all curious, I have, you have, of course our goals will be! Put a cage in front of the prey, it will definitely not take the initiative to get in, only put tempting bait in the cage, the prey is blinded by the fragrance of the bait, will not see the existence of the cage, and honestly get in!"
"I don't need to say this! I understand it myself! I just don't understand what is the point of you designing such a script and involving some unrelated people?" Qian was very disgusted by An An's bad taste.
"Meaning? Didn't you just say it? It doesn't make sense?" An An spread his hands, "The content of the script is just my interest, if you can provide a more interesting story at the beginning, of course, it is okay! This stage play is just a bait, and the purpose is just to catch it without being detected by the prey! As for what kind of tragedy this bait is made of, and which corpse it is made of, does it matter?"
"Aren't you afraid that the bait will break free of the hook and then bite you back?" Thousand Faces sneered, "If the prey can't be caught, there will be a chance next time, and if the fisherman is dragged into the water, then the game will be over!"
"Uh-huh! What you said is so reasonable! It's really a warning saying!" An An nodded uncontrollably, as if he agreed with Qianmian's words, but then, the smile on An An's face changed suddenly, and his eyes were like a cold glow, piercing Qianmian's eyes, "So, in order to keep the bait from decoupling, please also ask Qianmian's subordinates to be merciful and put away your irrelevant kindness!"
Thousand Faces didn't flinch this time, and asked coldly, "You mean I'm sympathizing with that Corelli?"
"I didn't say that, I just heartily reminded Lord Thousand Faces that I hope Lord Thousand Faces will not get too deep into the play when performing, so as not to give birth to some false feelings and mislead adults!"
Qianmian sank like water, and looked at An An coldly like this, and An An did not flinch to look at Qianmian.
In the end, Qianmian turned his head and snorted coldly: "Thank you for the reminder! I will do what I have to do, I just hope that the cage you prepared can be stronger, I don't want to be buried with you!"
"Peace of mind, my cage is still sturdy enough!"
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the house, accompanied by a familiar voice:
"Excuse me, is anyone home? We're friends of Corelli at the Academy......"
An An was stunned, and then couldn't help laughing: "Hooked! Hooked! The prey is finally hooked! Next, it's your stage!
Qianmian gave An An a cold last glance, then turned around and walked out of the room, and the moment she stepped out of the room, she was
In a mist of light, the Thousand Faces vanished, replaced by Corelli's sister, Mino!
......
Lore frowned and looked at the door in front of him, not because he was dissatisfied with the old house of the Corelli family, but because he was surprised that no one had come to open the door after so long.
"Could it be that no one is home?" said Leah casually.
"Impossible! I've already investigated it before! Corelli's mother has rarely gone out, so she must be at home! I guess I didn't hear it! Nolans, you have a loud voice, you shout!"
Nolans was speechless, but he couldn't stand the money he owed, and he didn't have a hard foundation, so he had to do it honestly.
And just as Nolans reluctantly went to call the door, Lore took the moment to look back at Rick, who had been half-dragged and half-dragged by himself.
"Crazy woman! are you still hesitating?"
Rick was having a tangled expression at this time, and when he heard Lore's words, he didn't care about Lore's name, but just subconsciously shook his head, and then nodded again.
Lore glanced at Lik with some dissatisfaction, and sighed, "I said Lik, your best friend is suffering alone, and you are still struggling with whether to cross the line or not?
"But......" said Ric, looking up hesitantly, "but, what you say is only speculation, not necessarily true......!
"And, and what? And you're worried about being hated by Corelli, and you're going to lose this good friend?"
Rick bit her lip, acquiescing.
Lore sighed again: "Rick, you're worried that this shows that you value Corelli as a friend! But now is not the time to dwell on this, we are here to verify whether the rumors I have investigated are true or false, and if they are false, you can apologize as much as you want later! If you are afraid, you can put all the blame on me! But if the rumors are true, then there is really a problem! Do you understand?"
Of course, Rick understood that she was really angry when she suddenly heard Lore tell her that she was secretly investigating Corelli, but after hearing Lore's reasoning, she was only left with endless worries in her heart!
Rick's perception of Corelli is not fundamentally different from ordinary people, thinking that Corelli is a gentle and optimistic person, even if he has noticed the slightest abnormality of Corelli recently, he has never thought about what kind of pain Corelli is suffering!
Domestic violence? Where has Rick, who has always been pampered, experienced such feelings? Even the definition of poverty, what Rick can imagine is very different!
"What if ......," Rick hesitated, "what should I do if what you have investigated is true?"
Lore was silent,
Then he shook his head slightly: "I don't know either." But I think as a friend, as long as you put your heart into it. ”
"Mindful......" Rick muttered to herself, not knowing what was going on in her mind at the moment.
At this time, Kylo suddenly reminded, "There is someone behind the door!"
Nolans, who was about to raise his right hand again, suddenly stopped, hurriedly squeezed out a smiling face, and said to the crack in the door: "That, hello! We are students of Lanze Demon Martial Academy, and we are friends of Kelly's classmates, please open the door, okay?"
The people behind the door seemed to be a little panicked, and Nolans could hear some subtle movements through the door.
Nolans turned back to Lore and said to the others with some strange feeling, "It seems to be a child." ”
Lore was stunned for a moment, then pulled Nolans aside and whispered through the crack in the door, "Is this Sister Mino? We are your sister's friends." ”
Nolans stepped aside helplessly, watching with Kylo coaxing the child through the door.
"Now, Kylo, I still don't understand! Leah's information doesn't mention that Corelli has a younger sister! But why is there an extra result?"
"This, if it's not that the information that Leah got is incomplete, then the family is deliberately hiding the existence of this child. Kylo replied casually.
Nolans scratched the top of his head and said, "What I don't understand is here, what's the point of hiding the existence of a child?"
Kylo thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's for tax evasion! Don't forget, this is the Lanze Royal City, a place where every inch of land is valuable, and every household has to pay taxes according to capitation!"
Nolans shrugged: "It seems that this can only be explained!"
Nolans was skeptical, but reluctantly agreed with this explanation, and although Kylo seemed to analyze everything very clearly, he didn't know how much vigilance he still had in his heart.
At this time, Luoer, who was fighting in Huairou, finally achieved results, and behind the gate, an immature female voice asked timidly:
"Are you really my sister's friends?"
