The moment she stood in front of the bell tower, Jun Yao was confused, she really didn't understand what the bell that suddenly rang was going on, Xu Qingran was obviously extremely confused, he subconsciously turned his head to look at Lin Mo behind him, and Lin Mo waved his empty hands at her, and smiled, "I didn't ring the bell." ”

"Orange corners, blonde hair...... The person who rang the bell just now was Elizabeth. Jun Yao said softly, she rubbed her forehead with her hand and repeatedly at her temples, as if her brain hurt because of the deafening sound of the bell.

"Elizabeth?" Xu Qingran asked again with some surprise, he didn't understand why Jun Yao suddenly said that the person who rang the bell was Elizabeth, they obviously didn't see anyone when they entered the bell tower, and when the bell rang, Jun Yao was standing at the back of them, that is, at the bottom of the stairs, if there were really people, then Jun Yao could see it, and they could naturally see it. Because whether it is above, in front or next to it, Xu Qingran has a perspective, and it can never be the back, because Jun Yao will never turn back when the bell rings, after all, this voice is coming from above.

"It's a pity that the corner of the clothes found in Adam's room is not in our hands, but in Ai Yu's." Jun Yao sighed with some regret, "But I guess that piece of clothing should also belong to Elizabeth." ”

"Why are you so sure?" Xu Qingran asked her puzzled.

"Because I suddenly remembered that when I entered Elizabeth's room yesterday, there was a dress hanging next to the self-portrait painted by Avarice, and Jiang Xian was explaining the meaning of red to us, and she mentioned orange in passing, and she was looking at the hanging gown at that time." Jun Yao recalled, "Because the indoor light is very red, I can't see the true color of the dress for a while, but I still have a little impression of its style." By the end of the bell, the two of you had already blurred in front of my eyes, but I saw very conspicuous blond hair and orange dresses, so I suddenly thought of Elizabeth. ”

"Speaking of which, I also saw a patch of gold, and it did look like hair, and I could feel some familiarity, but it was fleeting, so neither the system nor I could tell what it was." Lin Mo took a step to affirm Jun Yao's words, Xu Qingran saw that Lin Mo said this, so he was not ready to refute anything, he just felt that Shen Junyao today was very strange, unspeakably weird, but fortunately, she was not dangerous, but her behavior was a little different.

"The bell tower can't go in again today, let's go back." Xu Qingran sighed, turned around and walked towards the entrance of the town, Jun Yao and Lin Mo glanced at each other, neither spoke to each other, just followed behind Xu Qingran. After walking for about five or six minutes, the silent atmosphere was too embarrassing, and Jun Yao finally asked, "Are we going back to the hotel now?" Or do you want to visit Alice's house again? ”

Xu Qingran seemed to be thinking about something, and he didn't reply to Jun Yao's words for a long time, until Jun Yao walked to him, reached out and patted Xu Qingran's shoulder, and shook his hand in front of his eyes, he reacted and looked at Jun Yao in a daze, and then he raised his hand and rubbed his hair, "Let's go to Alice's house first, as you said, there are two people in the bell tower, Avarice and Elizabeth, so as the Alice family that is closest to them, it is naturally a very important source of clues." ”

Speaking of which, Xu Qingran turned his head to look at the time hanging on the shop next to him, "It's only past ten o'clock, it's still early for lunch, let's go visit Alice's house again." ”

Alice's house is in the eastern part of Eternal Sleep Town, and the block across the street garden, across the gate of the Eternal Sleep Inn, looks very quiet, compared to the south side where the mayor's house is located and the west side where the Yongxing Grand Theater is located, it is almost like a sign of losing people. The three of them visited so many houses of missing children, and also walked around the town for three days, for the whole town of the European medieval retro architectural style is already very pleasing to the eye, and now standing at the door of Alice's house again, looking at this modern European luxury style house, it is really as abrupt as it is.

Jun Yao walked towards the left side of the house, the display table on the first floor covered by a black cloth really made people wonder what was down there, she was close to the glass, closer to the pile of things, as if hoping to get more perspectives through this physical reduction in the distance in a straight line. In fact, this approach can't see anything clearly, Jun Yao even saw a thick layer of dust covering the glass, presumably this first floor should have not been used for a long time, not only the interior of this floor-to-ceiling glass window, but even the black cloth covered with fine particles that shimmer in the sun.

Just when Jun Yao was concentrating on observing the situation on the first floor, the arm of her right hand was suddenly grabbed, and then she was pulled up directly from the ground, Jun Yao was taken aback by this sudden move, and was a little angry who did such a rude behavior, who knew that he turned around and saw Xu Qingran, and he pointed to the inside of the glass window, somewhere inside the first floor.

"What for?" Jun Yao's anger was a little big for some reason, Xu Qingran pointed to a fixed place, frowned, and looked very guarded, "Look there." ”

Jun Yao turned his head and looked at the place of his finger, only to see the outline of a person faintly depicted in the darkness, tall but a little fat, his right hand was holding something, standing there, his eyes seemed to fall on Shen Junyao. Because of this glance, the anger in Jun Yao's body completely dissipated, she took two steps back, carefully put her hands behind her back, and prepared to take out her props to defend herself, she asked Xu Qingran, "That person...... When did it appear there? ”

Lin Mo took her words first, "We don't know, maybe he was there at the beginning, or maybe it was when you squatted down to observe closely, in short, I and Light Dye were also carefully observing the environment inside, because we felt that that place was too dark, and we always felt that something was moving, so we realized that there was someone standing there." ”

"That'...... Who is it? Jun Yao's attention was completely focused on the black shadow in the corner, and she didn't care about thinking, and the question she blurted out made Xu Qingran smile without a smile, "This is Alice's home, now that Alice is missing, Elizabeth will not appear in the town, except for the two of them, who else do you think will be in Alice's house?" That must have been Alice's father, Arthur. ”

Lin Mo reached out and grabbed Jun Yao's hand behind him, shook his head at her, and then pulled Jun Yao towards the direction of the courtyard gate, "Let's leave from this glass quickly." ”

Lin Mo should have sensed something to say this, so Jun Yao also revoked the props that were about to be taken out, she followed Lin Mo away from the huge floor-to-ceiling glass window, and the three of them stood at the gate of Alice's house again, looking at the house on the right, and didn't know what to do for a while.

"The dark shadow just now is Arthur, but it's strange, he seems to have appeared in the world of glass refraction." Lin Mo opened her mouth to explain why she wasn't going to let them use props for defense.

"Inside the world of glass refraction? You mean Arthur didn't appear in the real world? Is he in the illusion of glass or mirror? This...... Is it a Senro vision? Jun Yao asked.

"It's not a Senluo vision, but it's not a glass or mirror illusion. To be precise, he still exists in the real world, but not in the real world we are in, you can also understand it as a parallel world. Lin Mo shook his head, "We are in two worlds in different dimensions, but the world he is in is higher than ours in order of order, so his image is projected in our world, but he does not exist in this world, so what we see is only the image transmitted by some special media." ”

Xu Qingran frowned, "In this case, we are not in the same space, he is naturally no threat to us, let's just go in and see the situation." ”

"It's not that simple, since the high-level world can project images into the low-level world through a special medium, there are naturally special ways to enter this world. From the point of view of biological evolution, evolution is not easy, but it is indeed easy to return to a lower state. Lin Mo paused, her gaze stayed on a certain place on the second floor of the house on the right, "The mirror is the medium through which he enters." ”

As soon as Lin Mo finished speaking, he raised his hand and pointed to a certain room on the second floor, so Xu Qingran and Jun Yao looked in the direction of her finger, only to see that the window of that room was closed, only half of the curtains were drawn, and the other half could vaguely see the state inside, the red light seemed to fill the entire room, and the gloomy and weird atmosphere came straight along with the small window.

Jun Yao was stunned for a moment, frowning, and then she suddenly covered her mouth, as if to hide her surprise in this way, "The light in that room, as well as the style of the curtains, are very similar to Elizabeth's room that we entered in the bell tower yesterday!" ”

Xu Qingran also noticed this, and nodded incessantly, "That's right, that's right, it's Elizabeth's room." What's going on...... Why is there Elizabeth's room in Alice's house? Is this Alice's home, or is it a vision we see? ”

"It's not an illusion, it's real." Lin Mo denied the latter possibility, she took a deep breath, slowly spit it out, raised her feet and walked towards the courtyard, holding the Kunlun mirror in her hand, "Since there are so many doubts here, let's go in and visit." ”

Seeing this, Jun Yao and Xu Qingran immediately followed, Jun Yao found that Lin Mo had already taken out the props to prepare, so she walked a few steps quickly and blocked in front of Lin Mo, after all, this prop in her hand is used to protect everyone's life, so it is naturally better to hide it, if you just hold it in your hand so openly, what if Arthur sees it and destroys it or does some other moth to make their props invalid? She took out the pure white flute from her backpack and held it in her hand, Xu Qingran glanced at her, walked in front, and reached out to ring the doorbell of Arthur's house.

Having learned the lesson of the last time, Xu Qingran only pressed it once and then stopped moving, after all, they kept pressing it after no one responded for a long time last time, so Arthur's temper became very irritable, which led to the failure of communication. This time they will definitely not be as stupid as last time, and they will not do any of the inappropriate and inappropriate actions they did last time.

After about two or three minutes, a middle-aged uncle who was untidy and very sloppy appeared on the communicator display screen at the gate with slippers, his tone still sounded impatient, but compared to the previous time, he was not as irritable, so Jun Yao smiled at the display screen friendlyly, trying to make himself look kind and amiable, and extremely polite.

"Who?" Arthur's face suddenly zoomed in on the monitor, then zoomed out a little, as if the people inside were leaning closer to the screen to see who was coming.

"Hello, my name is Shen Junyao, and I am a traveler who has come to this town for tourism." Jun Yao didn't mention words such as mayor and investigation, but chose to say the initial identity set for them by the original system task - a traveler who was invited by the mayor of Eternal Town to travel to Eternal Sleep Town.

"Outsiders?" Arthur frowned, his voice unconsciously raised.

"Yes." Jun Yao nodded.

"So what are you doing here with me? I'm not a tourist reception center here. Arthur's voice was a little louder again, and Jun Yao felt that his ears were very bad. He took two steps back, as if trying to reduce the amount of sound he heard by closing the distance between him and the monitor.

"We ...... Actually, there's something I want to ask you. Jun Yao organized her language again, she paused for a long time, because she didn't know how to say their intentions, just when Jun Yao was silent, Xu Qingran seemed to think of something, and was about to open her mouth to answer for Jun Yao, only to see Arthur in the display screen wave his hand, "If you want to ask me a question, then you have to exchange something that interests me, so that I will solve your doubts." ”

There's a play! Arthur looks much better than the last time!

"So what do we need to tell you that you're going to help us?" Jun Yao continued to ask.

"What am I interested in? Scold...... Didn't the man who told you to come to me tell you? Arthur sneered suddenly, he reached out and turned off the screen on the monitor, "Let's go, go find information on what I'm interested in, and come see me again." ”
