Chapter 225: The best is yet to come
In the windmill of Sleepy Hollow, Katrina, no, Alexis wakes up.
"This kind of body that has to act according to the plot is terrible!"
Miss Ghost muttered inwardly.
In the world of this "Guillotine Valley" movie, although Katrina's stepmother is terrifying, it is not enough to scare Alexis, who has known the plot for a long time, all at once.
What really made her have to faint was the inertia of the plot.
Just like now, she knew what was going on, but she still had to listen to Katrina's stepmother tell her story of the crime
It turned out that because Katrina's father was timid and ran away, he did not see the process of his stepmother being killed.
In fact, it was not the stepmother who was killed at all, but Sarah, the maid who was wearing the stepmother's clothes.
As the one who actually controls the Headless Horseman, Katrina's stepmother is completely free from danger to the Headless Horseman.
And the reason why she did all this deliberately was for revenge.
She is the former owner of the old house where the Katrina family used to live.
That is, the people of the archer's family.
Because of the persecution of the old Van Gaale's family, they were forced to move out of their ancestral home, which indirectly led to the death of her mother.
From an early age, she wanted to take revenge on the Van Gaale family, and the Van Tasso family, who later lived in their ancestral home.
It so happened that the Headless Horsemann, who was still alive at the time, was hunted down and met her and her sister in the jungle.
They were the little sisters who the Headless Horseman met before he died, collecting firewood.
After the knight's death, she secretly dug up the other party's head, trying to control the other party to avenge herself.
Later, she infiltrated the Fantasso's family, first killing Katrina's mother, and then becoming the new Mrs. Fantasso.
In this case, she wants revenge and insatiable desires, so she wants to take the opportunity to seize the property of Van Gale and Van Tasso.
This is why the Headless Horsemann killed Van Gaale's father and son and the widow Winship, and then cleaned up all the insiders, and finally killed Katrina's father.
In this way, she was able to use inheritance to pool the property of two families who were related to each other.
As for the priests, doctors, sheriffs and notaries who know a little bit about the situation
The priest had an affair with her, and under the charm of beauty, he naturally would not expose her;
The doctor was caught by her for an affair with the maid Sarah and was threatened to shut up;
And the sheriff and the notary, these two people were originally timid, and they were simply frightened.
"So, now you have it all......"
According to the known plot, Alexis, who plays Katrina, says the lines that she should have said.
"No, it's you who have everything. β
Katrina's stepmother had sarcasm at the corners of her mouth.
It turned out that according to Katrina's father's will, his first heir was Katrina.
In other words, Katrina's stepmother must die in order to get the property she coveted.
So, Katrina must die!
"This woman is terrible!"
After hearing about Katrina's stepmother's plan, Diana gasped.
Kate, who was beside her, didn't care much about this.
In the eyes of Miss Detective, who has been through many horror cases, this is essentially just a serial murder case caused by an inheritance.
It's just that because of the introduction of the fantasy factor of the Headless Horseman, it has become confusing.
Now that the truth of the case has been revealed, it's time to see how Ikabu heroically saves the United States
Sure enough, Ikabu, who realized the truth later, arrived in time and saved Katrina from her stepmother's hands with the help of little Maspo, who secretly followed.
Soon, however, the Headless Horsemann appeared.
In order to escape the Headless Horseman, Iqab, Katrina, and Maspo took refuge in the Windmill Mill.
Facing the mighty Headless Horseman, the mill doors and barriers are like papier-mΓ’chΓ©.
Even if they later used the flammable and explosive properties of flour dust to detonate the entire windmill, it only blocked the Headless Horseman for a short time.
Although the three of them took the opportunity to escape from a short distance in the carriage, they were quickly overtaken by the Headless Horseman, and Iqab was forced to fight with the carriage in fact.
"This fight on the roof of the car is a wonderful shot!"
Watching a series of shots of Depp's Iqab barely fighting the Headless Horseman with the help of luck, Kenneth Turan feels very good.
He didn't expect that Charlotte Booth, a cutting-edge director, would have such experience in filming action scenes.
"It seems that this guy is really suitable to be a commercial film director. β
Kenneth felt like he was watching a new commercial film director emerge.
However, the thoughts of the audience outside the big screen have nothing to do with Alexis in the inner world.
After temporarily escaping the Headless Horseman's pursuit, Katrina, as required in the script, arrives near the Tree of Death along with Ikab and Maspo.
At this point, Katrina's stepmother reappeared.
She rode on her horse and pointed her gun at Alexis like a cat playing with mice.
At this time, according to the plot, it should be Ikab who bravely stood in front of Katrina, played by Alexis, and blocked the bullet for her.
However, standing beside Alexis at this time, Iqab did not move.
"No one can save the dead!"
What comes out of the stepmother's mouth is no longer a normal line.
And this meant something, and all of a sudden, Alexis's cold hairs exploded all over his body.
Dangerous!
Without saying anything more, Alexis, who had experienced a lot of supernatural events with Charlotte and Charlize, immediately realized that something was wrong.
As soon as she tried to escape, the other party's gun went off
"Bang!!"
Alexis subconsciously closed his eyes.
Miss Ghost thinks she's dead!
Although, as a ghost, she doesn't know if she can die again.
However, for a long time, she didn't feel the slightest pain in her body.
Didn't you hit?
Alexis opened his eyes, only to see a wisp of green smoke coming from Ikabu's chest.
"What are you hitting him for?"
Alexis was in a daze.
And in the same daze, there is Katrina's stepmother.
Although Alexis felt that it was definitely not a normal character, at this time, she couldn't call the other party anything else.
"Katrina's stepmother" was equally stunned
"How can this bullet bend!? I have already cast a witchcraft on it!?"
"Because this book specifically applies protection to Katrina, no, it should be said to be a protection circle to protect Alexis!"
The corners of Ikab's mouth, who should have been knocked down by a single shot, showed a wicked smile that Alexis felt very familiar,
"All the harm that really worked for her was deflected to this book. β
As he spoke, he opened his shirt, and on his chest was the book "Spells and Magic in the Psychic World", with a small hole in the book caused by a bullet and a lot of smoke.
The next moment, the green smoke suddenly turned into several silver chains, and swept away in all directions.
