The record on the diary ended here, and the paper after that was blank, Xu Qingran touched it with his hand, and felt the nicks in the handwriting, he looked at the desk, took a pencil and drew on the paper, the chaotic handwriting stacked together could not see the original content at all, he sighed, "The back part was torn off." ”

Jun Yao nodded, not surprised by this, Adam's diary has already given a lot of content, and now that the mission is only on its third day, even if their progress is already very fast, it is impossible to show all the clues at once.

But they've got a couple of important clues.

"Adam mentioned the Eternal Star Theater, I remember that there seems to be a rule about theater in the Curse of Time, right?" Ai Yu asked.

Jun Yao nodded, recalling the newspaper she had read before, "The theater is a place to communicate with time...... Don't be curious to go and watch, be sure to respect the ceremony. Something like that, right? I don't remember exactly what it was. ”

"By the way, I remember that when Jiang Xian brought back the newspaper with the curse of time, there seemed to be other newspapers." Xu Qingran said reminiscingly, at that time, all their attention was on the newspaper printed with the curse of time, who still had the heart to pay attention to what was written in the remaining few newspapers. But in retrospect, it seems that the few remaining newspapers refer to places where there are currently strange places - the Eternal Night Forest and the Eternal Star Grand Theater.

"That's true, except we didn't read the newspapers at the time. At that time, the lady of Lily's family 'kindly' reminded Jiang Xian that there was something we were looking for on the bulletin board, maybe she gave a hint that she wanted us to find more than just those five time curses? There are also reports of suspicious locations in the mission. Jun Yao nodded and analyzed.

"I'll go down and ask Jiang Xian if she still remembers the content, or let's go directly to the notice board when we go back at noon." Xu Qingran didn't prepare to dwell on this Yongxing Grand Theater, after all, it was just a new clue, according to what Adam said, he saw a big blood-red eye appear by the window, such a strange thing should be called a monster, it appeared in the theater, no matter what the reason, at least one thing is clear - the Yongxing Grand Theater is dangerous.

"Don't you think it's strange to be lightly dyed?" Jun Yao didn't know when she took the notebook from Xu Qingran's hand, and she carefully flipped through the previous contents, especially the one written by Adam about the experience of breaking into the bell tower, and read it word by word as if she was doing Chinese reading comprehension. She slowly put down the diary, propped her hands on the desk, turned her head to look at Xu Qingran, and asked.

Xu Qingran looked at her with some surprise, seeing that her face was the same, she coughed twice in embarrassment, raised her hand and rubbed her hair, "If you talk about strange places, I think the woman who suddenly appeared as described by Adam...... Who do you think she is? If it's Elizabeth, I always think it's weird, this woman doesn't look like Elizabeth, although the only woman who can appear in the bell tower and want to protect the children is Elizabeth, but I just think something is not right. ”

"This woman who appeared out of nowhere? I really didn't feel it, but when you said that, it felt weird......" Jun Yao put her hand to her mouth, as if she was thinking. What Xu Qingran meant when she heard her words, that is, what she found was different from herself? So he asked, "So what do you think is strange?" ”

Jun Yao pointed to a certain paragraph of the diary, "You see here, Adam wrote that they climbed out of the passageway, which happened to be the lowest level of the bell tower, and then they climbed up the stairs and saw a lot of statues and murals. Later, when they were tired, the three of them sat down to rest, and then they realized that Alex was hiding the gems, so they took them to the place where the gems had been piled up. While they were collecting gems, they met a woman, who persuaded them to leave and went upstairs. ”

"Before you doubt whether this woman is Elizabeth, the assumption I just made is that this woman is Elizabeth, and she should go upstairs to her room and leave, right? But it is strange that when we entered the bell tower yesterday, we found Elizabeth's room at the stairs on the second floor, but the children had climbed four or five floors to see the jewel, and then they met the woman and saw her go upstairs. ”

"Do you think the bell tower where the children go is the same as the bell tower we go to?" Jun Yao asked, Xu Qingran also carefully read the contents of the diary according to what she said, indeed according to Adam's statement, Elizabeth's room should be on the fifth or sixth floor, but the bell tower where they entered, Elizabeth's room was on the second floor.

"And look here—overhead is a staircase with no end in sight. The bell tower we entered was one floor at a time, and the stairs were also staggered, and when we went up the stairs, we could only see the ceiling overhead, and we couldn't see the stairs. I suspect that the bell tower Adam went in was not the same as the one we went to, at least the staircase they climbed should be a spiraling staircase, not a staggered Z-shaped staircase like ours. ”

Xu Qingran frowned, and then he closed his diary, "Ai Yu, you take that piece of clothing with you, and we will go downstairs now." ”

"Huh? Don't continue the search? Ai Yu was a little puzzled, was he going to leave suddenly? Although the suspicion that Jun Yao said is indeed reasonable, why is Xu Qingran so anxious?

"We've been looking around here for most of the day, and have we found anything else besides that piece of clothing and this diary?" Xu Qingran had already taken the diary and stood by the door, "There can't be too many clues here, even the contents of the diary are incomplete, and we won't have any other clues if we stay here for another half an hour." ”

Xu Qingran said that it did make sense, Ai Yu nodded and was about to follow, but the action was another one, because Xu Qingran turned around when he saw Jun Yao go out, and the two of them walked out together.

Ai Yu bit her lip, sighed, and suddenly remembered the corner of the clothes, so she turned around and picked up the corner of the clothes that was placed on the bed, and at this moment she heard a slight "squeak-" sound, like the sound of a door or window being pushed open. It's just that there is no wind in the closed room, the window is still closed, and the door of the room has long been opened to the maximum by them, and it is impossible to shake it, so there seems to be only one place in the whole room that will make such a sound.

Wardrobe doors!

Ai Yu turned her head slowly, only to see that a thin crack appeared in the wardrobe door that had just been closed by herself, and just as she was about to take a closer look, a flash of red light flashed through the crack in the dark door, which frightened Ai Yu to take a few steps back.

What is that? Bright red eyes?

Ai Yu hurriedly ran downstairs, only to find that everyone else except her was sitting on the sofa drinking tea, and Linda, assistant to the mayor, was standing in front of the cooking table in the semi-open kitchen, waiting for the water in the kettle to boil, she smiled at herself, "It's hard work, please sit down and have a cup of tea and rest, it's all right here." ”

So Ai Yu walked to the edge of the sofa and saw Lin Mo naturally patting the vacant seat next to him and hinting that he would sit down, Ai Yu didn't respond immediately, just glanced at Jun Yao, and then sat down next to Lin Mo.

"Light Ran, I'm ......" Ai Yu nodded in thanks to Linda who handed her tea, and was about to say what she had just seen, but Xu Qingran interrupted her first, "It seems that there is nothing else to discover, so we still act according to the original plan just said in the restaurant." Jun Yao and Lin Mo and I will go first, and you will go out in more than ten minutes after we leave. ”

After finishing speaking, he stood up, and then Jun Yao also put down the teacup in his hand, Lin Mo also got up, and the three of them walked out like this. Ai Yu was stunned for a moment, and by the time she reacted, the door had already been closed.

"Ai Yu? What does it seem like you want to say just now? Jiang Xian suddenly asked.

Ai Yu came back to his senses and shook his head, "It's nothing, I just want to ask if I need to go with them." After all, such a thing happened, and the traces left in this living room were not pleasant, and I was afraid that there would be some danger. ”

"It's okay, if there is a slight dye, nothing will happen, right?" Jiang Xian asked rhetorically, "After all, you trust him very much, don't you?" ”

Ai Yu always felt that Jiang Xian's words were weird, she nodded, and continued to drink the cup of tea in her hand, Jiang Xian didn't talk to her anymore, just got up and walked to the courtyard outside the living room.

As soon as he came out of Adam's house, Xu Qingran walked directly to the left, Jun Yao and Lin Mo glanced at each other, and stopped him in unison, "Qingran-"

"Isn't Alice's house here? It's the East End...... Should we go to the right? Lin Mo asked.

"I know, it's just that I have one more important thing to confirm than a visit to Alice's house." Xu Qingran pointed to the road to the left, Jun Yao understood what he meant in an instant, so she grabbed Lin Mo and pulled her to that side, "Let's go to the bell tower to see the situation first, didn't I guess yesterday that the extra child's bloody handprint was a sign?" Although it is impossible to prevent the disappearance of the children, at least we can first confirm whether there are any more bloody handprints today, and how many more have appeared. ”

Lin Mo looked down at Jun Yao holding her hand, her brows furrowed, as if she was guarding against something, but when Jun Yao looked at her face, she smiled again and nodded, "You guys found some clues upstairs, right?" This clue is related to the bell tower, so I want to confirm it. After all...... Just because you have to confirm the number of mudras, there is no need to be in such a hurry. ”

Xu Qingran roughly talked about Adam's diary, and said about the two bell towers that Jun Yao deduced at that time, Lin Mo was obviously very surprised, "But if there are really two bell towers, then which one are we going to go to?" We had been in the same bell tower for the first two days, the one on the second floor where Elizabeth's room was on. As you might guess, then we need to go into the bell tower with the spiral staircase with the sculptures and frescoes that the children are going to to get clues, but the most important question is how do we get in? ”

During the conversation, the three of them have walked to the sunset square, in fact, the sunset square is very exquisitely arranged, completely restoring the appearance of the Middle Ages, full of retro atmosphere, the bell tower stands in the center of the square, it looks extremely solemn and mysterious. Xu Qingran turned his head, looked at Jun Yao and Lin Mo who were standing side by side, and smiled, "Jun Yao is right, if you want to find something different, you have to be one of them, and find out them as ordinary places, so that you can see the hidden secrets behind the incident." If we want to get into the bell tower described in Adam's diary, we have to do the same thing as they did. We used to enter the bell tower through the main entrance of the bell tower, although it was locked, but we used props and other means to open it, but the children did not do so after they found out that the gate was locked. ”

"You want to get in through that vent?" Jun Yao understood what Xu Qingran meant, she nodded, and felt that Xu Qingran's inference was very reasonable, if she did something but didn't achieve the effect she wanted, it could only be that the method was wrong. The way they enter the bell tower is different from the way the children use it, so naturally they will enter two different bell towers.

"Okay, let's try it then, shall we?" Lin Mo nodded, agreeing with Xu Qingran's statement, so the three of them bypassed the gate of the bell tower and came to the vent that they found yesterday.

Xu Qingran squatted down, gently pulled the vent and took it off, he put the vent aside, and took the lead in getting in, Jun Yao glanced at Lin Mo, not knowing whether he should go first or Lin Mo first. Lin Mo smiled, "I can sense the unknown danger, but I can't get too close to it, so it may be counterattacked, so I have to trouble you to go first." ”

Jun Yao nodded, in fact, Lin Mo let him go first, maybe to protect them after the break, right? After all, although this passage seems one-way, who can guarantee that unknown dangers will not appear behind them to attack after they enter here? There may be danger in both the front and back of the two-way passage, but the person in the middle is always relatively safe, after all, someone will be in front of him.

Jun Yao felt a warm feeling, but she quickly focused her attention on her surroundings.

Jun Yao could be sure that what they saw after climbing out of this passage must be a different bell tower from before.
