"This—this must be Chavent's blood! That, that ghost killed Shavent! Eric shuddered, unable to speak, hiding behind Augs's back, not daring to move forward.

He had blue-black circles under his eyes, and the stubble on his chin made him look scruffy and haggard.

Neither Vera nor Ma Hao refuted his words, and what Eric said was what they had in mind.

Ghosts don't shed human blood, and the only human in this room besides them is the president who disappeared yesterday afternoon.

Ma took a big gasp to calm the depression in his chest. Vera thoughtfully patted her on the back, thinking that she was just frightened by the president's death.

The members of the club died one after another, and it did not numb them to death. On the contrary, the departure of each companion was like a boulder weighing heavily on the heart, pushing them one step closer to the abyss of death.

Several people walked forward with the trail of blood, and unlike the previous nights, this time they could clearly see the bloody footprints in the hallway, leading to the staircase in the middle.

The footprints stopped at the knight's armor at the top of the staircase, the ghost seemed to have little brain, and the marks under his feet clearly indicated where it was hiding.

Its armor had changed from a silver-gray metallic color to a thin red of blood, and the blood stains on its knees and elbows were particularly thick, dripping with blood-red liquid.

Eric fell to his knees and cried out in obsession, ignoring the pungent smell of blood beneath his feet, "Please, spare me!" Spectre, please spare me! ”

He trembled with a trembling voice, his forehead slammed against the blood-stained carpet, and when he got up again, it looked like he had made a big hole in his head.

"What are you doing in a daze?! Come and ask for forgiveness from the Ghost Lord! ”

Eric bowed reverently for a long time, and when he saw that several people did not move, he glared at them and became angry, "This attitude towards Lord Ghost, don't blame me for not reminding you when the time comes!" ”

If kowtow had worked, the Occult Research Society wouldn't have been killed. Although Ma Hao Hao has no backbone, he will not kneel to such a brutal evil spirit.

"Forgiveness?" Vera repelled Eric's behavior more than Mahao, "I don't remember anything I've done to be sorry for Ta, why should I ask Ta's forgiveness?" ”

"Because you disturbed the ghost's sleep, this is your biggest mistake!" Like a self-appointed defender of the ghost, Eric angrily accuses Vera of being disrespectful.

Vera was naturally not intimidated by his arrogance, "Don't forget, it was Rob who proposed to come here to take the risk. Why did your ghost master let go of the mastermind who was disturbing him and kept an eye on us accomplices? ”

She didn't think that was the reason for the ghost to kill, and even if she was, she didn't agree with the practice of asking for forgiveness.

They have already seen the cruel methods of the ghosts, whether it is Camilla, Tiger or the president, the way of death is very miserable. Such an inhuman evil thing, can you still pray that Ta has human compassion?

"I advise you not to waste your efforts." Vera said, "Even if you knock your head a hundred times, your ghost lord won't be impressed by you. It is more useful to have this spare time than to pray for God's blessing. ”

Eric opened his mouth, and he thought that Vera's words made sense.

Since there are ghosts in the world, there must also be gods. He vowed to be a devout believer from now on, and asked God and the Virgin Mary to bless him!

Eric said just do it, pulling out a cross necklace from the round neck of his T-shirt, holding the bottom of the cross and gesturing it on his chest.

The corners of Vera's mouth twitched, her original intention was to mock Eric's innocence, but she didn't expect him to really engage in the "God forbid" set.

This half-hearted believer, one second he called the ghost an adult, and the next second he switched to the arms of God, and it was strange that God would be moved by him.

Augs also felt that Eric's actions were not wise, that it was better to ask for others than for himself, and he believed in themselves more than in these illusory things.

He was about to speak to persuade his deranged companion when the knight's armor suddenly moved again.

"Hee ......"

From his iron-clad body, a slight laugh came: "Hee-hee...... Hee-hee......"

Hearing this sound in the middle of the day, the feeling of fear continues unabated, and hitting a ghost in the day is no more scary than in the middle of the night.

Sweat broke out from the backs of several people, and this was the first time they had faced a ghost.

"Hee-hee-......" The knight's hand slowly raised, and even though he didn't hold a weapon in his hand, he still forced a few steps back for a few people.

"Run!" Vera shouted.

Several people used the fastest speed in their lives and rushed to the study.

"Bang-"

"Bang-"

The knight's heavy footsteps sounded behind him, and no one dared to look back, only gritted his teeth and ran forward.

The door to the study was slammed shut with a heavy reverberation. A few people didn't have time to pant evenly, and they pressed against the back of the door panel, acting as a barrier that was better than nothing.

"Knock, knock, knock......" knock pierced through the planks and knocked on everyone's ears.

"Whew...... Who, who...... None of them are allowed...... Open the door...... "Eric was still panting, threatening not to let the ghost in.

There is no need for him to say this, no one will be stupid enough to kill themselves.

"Knock, knock, knock......"

The knocking continued, with no intention of stopping.

The ghost was more persistent than they expected, knocking on the door all night last night, and again early this morning. What is the purpose of TA?

"Could there be something he wants in the study?" Augs asked.

"Looks like we're going to need to check this study again." Vera said, "But before that, push that row of bookshelves over and block the door to the room. ”

With bookshelves in the way, even if the ghost wants to break in, it must take a lot of work, right?

Augs was used by himself as two people, Eric used his strength to feed, Ma Hao and Vera also came to help, and the four of them were in a hurry, and finally blocked the door with bookshelves.

"What's next?" Augs looked at Vera in confusion, mental work really wasn't for him.

"Looking for clues, the knight is so obsessed with the study, there must be important information in the study, don't let go of every corner."

The knight outside the door was still knocking on the door, and everyone did not dare to slack off, so they kept their eyes open and searched carefully in the room.

Ma Haohao found an old photo in the drawer at the bottom of the desk, which was a family portrait of a family of three. As for the top drawer of the desk, it is locked by a key.
