Chapter 11 The Most Unreliable Inference

"it...... What's going on here......"

Su Haotian was covered in a cold sweat - after all, the entire mountain disappeared, this kind of thing was too sensational.

"I'm afraid it's the price of the fourth curse...... ......Shh Pretending to be a ghost, pretending to be a ......," Mitch said, squinting and pushing his eyes.

“……”

Lu Tong, who had been waiting for us on the side, had a calm face. He reached out and pointed to the flat ground.

"Guys, we don't really know when the mountain disappeared, chief...... No, it was the student council president who guessed that the hill had disappeared last night. ”

Lu Tong said, clasping his hands together.

"Today was originally going to be a long-distance run in the fall, so naturally there will be students who come early to practice on the track in the morning, and it is because they went to the track to practice and found the magic array painted on the entire sports field, so the attention of the students was attracted by the magic array. There are usually few people here in the back mountain, and on the way from the school gate to the sports field, there is no back mountain because of the science and technology museum and library...... Therefore, the abnormality of the back mountain may not have been discovered in time, so it is possible that this back mountain disappeared last night - the above is the opinion of the student council president. ”

…… That's what I said.

Even if the mountain disappears for a longer time.

But to make a hill disappear in one night is beyond common sense.

…… No...... Still not right......

I slowly walked forward, walked to the flat ground that was supposed to be a hill, squatted down, and put my hands on the ground.

"The ground is wet."

I said, picking up the dirt with my hands.

"The ground is wet...... Indeed, it rained last night, from seven o'clock until half past four. It's not impossible to draw a magic circle with a lime cart in the rain, but is it true that this hill disappeared last night?

Mickey analyzed the information he had gotten out of nowhere.

"Nope! Wrong! Xiaoshan wasn't here in the first place!! ”

I shouted no.

Everyone was overwhelmed by my sudden words.

"Come and take a look at this."

I turned my head and said to the people behind me.

Everyone came over with puzzled faces.

"This is ......"

"Roots?"

"So what?"

"No...... Why are there roots at the bottom of the hill? And this root still looks fresh. ”

"In other words, this was originally a flat land, and someone recently removed all the plants on the flat land, leaving the roots in the soil......

"That's not right! Mountains are absolute, and many people have climbed this hill! ”

"But it's true that this place is originally flat!"

Totally contradictory!

The facts of the past and the facts of the present are completely contradictory.

After arguing for a moment, they were silent.

I thought for a moment, and then I said with some confidence:

"Either way, it's certain that the prisoner didn't use impossible means like magic to make the hill disappear...... The prisoner is just a trickster. ”

No one responded to me.

Yes, the hill did not disappear, but the hill became flat.

Even so, the question of why the hill was turned flat remains unresolved, and it is unknown what means the prisoners used.

"However, it is clear that the prisoner has not yet reappeared to 'wake up the deceased', so why rush to 'collect the price' first?"

Wuma asked, confused.

"I don't think it's a matter of priority. The four curses are just a disguise, what the other party wants is only what the magic array summons, that is the result, and there is no need to reproduce the cost with the result, so before the result is realized, the prisoner must follow the route he has set for himself, and make the price according to the vision described in the four curses. ”

Bai Yue said her own opinion, and it was very reasonable.

"Anyway, let's decide what to do next......

The minister pinched his waist with one hand and bit his fist.

"Uncle, I would like to ask Shi Lu, the president of the student union, to investigate whether the other three curse legends have occurred in the history of Zuolu No. 1 University."

When Lu Tong heard this, he smiled and took out a small notebook from nowhere.

"Also, the other party's actions are obviously reproducing the legend of the four curses, so the floor-to-ceiling mirror in the hall of the teaching building is blocked, and the doorman is asked to observe when the flowers at the door will wither...... and the suppression of recent broadcasts. In particular, the door of the broadcast room must be locked. ”

"Okay, ten...... Minister Shi. ”

Lu Tong said with a smile and nodded, then turned and left.

I shook my umbrella.

Completely silent to come in.

There is no clue about what is happening now.

"Everyone, listen up, let's go back to each class before the student council's investigation comes out...... Su Chen, come with me, I have something to tell you alone. ”

The minister said, motioning for me to come with her.

Although I still care a little about which class Bai Yue enters, I feel the bottom of my heart when I see her being dragged away by Mickey.

The Minister and I went back to the Club Room.

The minister turned and closed the door, locked it, ran to the window again, closed the curtains, and then faced me.

"Su Chen, I want to ask you a question"

"What's the problem?"

I said.

The minister, however, took a few deep breaths as if he was mentally prepared.

"You...... Do you believe in magic? ”

The minister asked, frowning.

"No, I honestly don't believe it, although I don't know why I know so well about the magic array."

"Is that so......"

The minister listened to my words and stopped talking.

But soon he made up his mind again.

"Su Chen, in fact, this incident was not done by humans."

……

Hehe, what an unreliable inference......

Looking at my look of disbelief, the minister did not react excessively.

"Oh...... Don't believe it, do you...... Actually, my family is a family of magicians, and I can also do a little magic or two. ”

As he spoke, the minister's palms clasped together, and then slowly opened.

Incredibly, a long strip of French bread appeared between the minister's hands......

“…… I...... I...... I believed......"

"Just believe it."

After the minister finished speaking, he ate the French bread he had conjured.

Then he began to explain to me the so-called magic......

According to her, magic is not something that humans can use casually, even magicians can't use it casually. If magic is used too often, or on too large a scale, it will erode the human mind and eventually turn the person into a demon.

Because magic itself is a demonic thing.

The magic array on the sports field, the six names written on it, are indeed the names of low-level demons, as I said. This magic circle is indeed a magic circle that summons devils.

"So, Minister, you say that the prisoner is not human, what is that?"

"I'm afraid...... It's the hill itself......"

……

"Ministry...... Minister, let's find time to talk about this issue...... I don't have enough brain cells......"

I held my forehead weakly and waved my hand vigorously.

"But, Minister, why are you telling me this......"

When I think of the minister's house, I have the feeling of mystery and gloom, the solemn and restrained appearance of the minister when he returns home, and the French bread that the minister ate just now......

In this way, it may indeed be true that the minister is a magician.

But why would you tell me this secret......

"008 Su Chen, don't you think you might have been a magician before you lost your memory?"

The minister moved slightly, and her face was only a few centimeters away from mine.

For a moment, I was a little overwhelmed.

"You can read the words around the magic circle on the playing field, and you can interpret the magic circle correctly from memory...... Such...... How could it not be a magician!? ”

The minister's breath hit my face, and the sweet smell of her body hit my nose......

It's a bad distance......

"I ...... I know!! I'm in a hurry!! ”

He quickly turned around and opened the door and ran out, leaving the minister in the activity room before he could react to what was going on.

I gasped heavily.

Although this is a bit rude to the minister...... But I really can't stand the minister's inadvertent stimulation......

Hey, if I'm not a human being, I'm afraid I'll just push it......
