Chapter 14: Throw it out
The reason why Qin Ming went and returned was because he suddenly realized one thing, that is, since he already knew that the butler who was broken into a corpse would turn into a powerful ghost to chase and kill it, wouldn't it be a better way to burn it to the ground while it was still a pile of minced meat.
So why did he run away in a panic?
It's just that when he returned here, after facing the butler's minced meat in the shape of a "mystery", he hesitated again in his heart. Because he thought of one more thing, and that was that if he used the fire snake technique to burn the butler's body with a single fire, then he would be completely exposed in the eyes of the devil.
If this incident was really as invincible as Liu Yao and the others were involved in at the time, then releasing spiritual energy was likely to be an indirect suicide. If you can't be sneaky, you won't get any "rules of the game", and you will just kill yourself.
But then again, if he doesn't kill the butler's corpse now, then he won't rely on psionic energy in the future, and it will be difficult for him to escape the pursuit. Because judging from the content on that note, he, the "young master", was forbidden to leave the western-style building, and in this way, if the ghost butler wanted to find him, he only had to search from top to bottom, and then he would have nowhere to hide.
So in this game of hide and seek, there is no possibility of hiding at all.
Now if you don't burn the housekeeper's body or die, if you look back and be found by the housekeeper or die, Qin Ming decided not to do anything, and he must dispose of the housekeeper's body now.
However, instead of using psionic powers, he took out a bottle of fire oil from the storage ring, poured the oil on the butler's corpse, and then used a lighter to set the housekeeper's clothes on fire.
The butler's clothes soon burned, and the room smelled of burnt hair. But Qin Ming's face still looked ugly, because he found that it was completely impossible to burn a corpse in a short period of time with this way of igniting.
At most, a dead corpse can become a charred corpse.
And what is worse is that the charred minced meat distributed by the butler on the ground is also like giving birth to life, and at this time it is like giving birth to life, and there is a tendency to gather together.
Seeing this, Qin Ming was in a hurry, feeling that he could really only use his spiritual energy hard.
The fire spirit in his body began to move extremely quickly, and he also raised his palm against the charred flesh that was gathering on the ground. However, before he could release it, another deafening thunder sound came from outside.
"Boom ——!"
When Qin Ming heard the thunder, his eyes subconsciously glanced at the window, and then, a smile like a mist appeared on his originally ugly face.
So he hurriedly put down his palms, walked quickly to the bed, tore off the sheets, and then covered the minced meat that was gathering together, and wrapped his hands and feet into a large bag.
After making sure that all the minced meat of the housekeeper had been wrapped, Qin Ming picked up the sheet wrapped in the broken corpse, and then turned three steps into two steps to the window, and then after pushing open the window, he threw down the bag of minced meat he was carrying.
After doing all this, Qin Ming still stood in front of the window and didn't leave, because he still wanted to make sure if his conjecture was correct.
The sheets wrapped in minced meat were blown away from the minced meat by the wind, and when Qin Ming saw the minced meat, they had already been reassembled into a charred human form.
It's just that this humanoid figure doesn't seem to have any vitality, and after it falls to the ground, it has been lying on the ground motionless.
Qin Ming then observed the housekeeper's charred corpse for more than ten minutes, and only after he was sure that the charred corpse would not "wake up" did he breathe a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat on his face with his hand.
"Sure enough."
Qin Ming was a little glad that he had made the right choice just now, and threw it out of the window before the ghost butler woke up.
The reason why he was able to think of this solution was also thanks to the thunder that sounded outside the window at that time. It was the thunder that drew his attention out the window, allowing him to find a loophole in the rules on the small piece of paper that recorded the rules of the game.
The note clearly stated that he was not allowed to leave the mansion as a hiding, which seemed to be a rule to restrain him, but on the other hand, this was also a rule to restrain the ghost butler.
It was precisely because the ghost butler couldn't do without the western-style building that he was not allowed to escape from the western-style building.
And now when I look back at the contents of that note, a lot of things are clear. First of all, there is a clear statement on the note about the time when the ghost appears, and secondly, it clarifies the personnel, scope, and rules of the game.
When: 20 minutes later.
Participants: The resurrected ghost butler, and the young master.
Scope: Western-style buildings
Rules: It is forbidden to leave the building.
Qin Ming picked up the pen on the table and wrote the content of this game of hide and seek on it in a form that was easier for him to distinguish.
Looking at it this way, he felt that it was really very similar to the events that Liu Yao and the others experienced at that time, because in essence, they all needed to follow sneaky instructions to do things.
The incident that Liu Yao and they experienced, explained by Xia Jie's statement, was because the school miscalculated the strength of the sneaky, which caused Liu Yao and them to experience an event that was much higher than their own strength.
In terms of the explanation of the nature of the event, Xia Jie only used the term "special event" to describe it, which also made him not very sure whether this special event was a cursed event, just like Zhang Yaolong's incident.
It can be said that that incident is also the closest thing he has come to death since he joined the academy.
The more Qin Ming thought about it, the cooler his palms became, after all, no matter whether the special events Xia Jie said and the cursed events he had encountered were the same thing, one thing was certain, that is, the sneakiness he had to face would inevitably be outrageously strong.
Just like Liu Yao described at the time, they didn't even see what the sneaky looked like, and the people were already dying.
"My Conan's physique is really as powerful as ever."
Thinking of where he was unlucky, and even the events he experienced were always weirder than those experienced by others, Qin Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly, feeling that An Zili was going to be unlucky with her this time.
There was still lightning and thunder outside, and Qin Ming's mood was like the weather outside, which was terrible.
With the tragic death of the housekeeper, there should be only two living people in this western-style building now, he and the crazy woman.
Thinking of the madwoman who was babbling nonsense earlier, he suddenly realized that the madman seemed to have run away from him after he entered the butler's room.
