Chapter 39: Goodbye Tony
"Looks like we're in trouble!" Pushing the door out of the study, the two looked at the unfamiliar corridor in front of them, each showing a trace of helplessness.
The study is not on the first floor of the manor, but in the corridor on the second floor of the manor. Through the guardrail at the front of the hallway, the two of them could clearly see the manor hall below.
Only once again the place was a scene of decay, the walls and guardrails of the corridor were crawling with all kinds of wild plants, and the smell of grass and decay was refreshing to both of them.
"What should I do?" Susan smiled wryly and turned to look at him.
"If Wilson were alive and with you, what would he do in this situation?" Qin Lun thought about it for a long time, but he didn't want to make another decision.
Susan is now completely dependent on him to survive here, and she wants to find the missing Karin and Dinah as soon as possible, so the girl will not object to any decision he makes.
But Qin Lun didn't want to do this, no matter what decision he made now, it was likely that the two would be pushed away from the original plot, but instead follow the thinking of the original plot characters, and be closer to the origin of the incident.
In the previous battle with Hansen, he was aroused by a strong desire to destroy. It was a battle that was a loser, and in terms of the battle itself, he won. But in a sense, as long as Qin Lun failed to kill Han Sen, then he didn't win.
Because his desire to destroy, unsatisfied, became even more intense, devouring the remaining patience more and more. Now Qin Lun no longer has the leisure to explore, he just wants to find another suitable prey to relieve the rising desire for destruction.
"Wilson......" Speaking of the dead companion, Susan was silent for a while, then cheered up and said, "Wilson is a man of the year in school, tall and handsome, funny in speech, good at sports, very popular with girls. If you don't know him, it's easy to think of him as that kind of romantic playboy at first glance......"
"But he's not that kind of person, is he?" Recalling the last time he saw Wilson at the camp, Qin Lun somewhat understood what Susan wanted to say.
Before his death, the young man named Wilson was still worried about his companions who were taken captive by the fjord sea monsters, and he had to say that he really had a sense of justice that sacrificed himself for others, and at the same time he did not lack courage.
Although in Qin Lun's eyes, it was just a boring act of a little bug, but he had to admit that he was not a playboy and an embroidered pillow.
"If it were Wilson, I think he would have searched every room along the hallway to find Karin and Dinah, who were missing." Susan said, looking at Qin Lun with grateful eyes, as if thanking him for encouraging himself with Wilson's heroic behavior.
Although it is a little silly, you can still feel the will of your dead companion and have the courage to fulfill your companion's last wish! If I don't do it at this time, I guess she will choose to leave and explore the guest rooms of the manor alone.
Qin Lun glanced at Susan, and the fiery desire for destruction in his heart was extinguished a little. No matter how lacking his humanity is, he will always grow up in human society and will be infected by the same kind of emotions.
The only difference is that his worldview and values are unusually distorted, and he always returns to the path of destruction and destruction in the end.
"Then let's check the room in this hallway!" Qin Lun did not disappoint Susan and led her towards the nearest guest room.
The second floor of Wilson's Manor was both the guest room for visitors and the rooms for important servants of the estate.
However, unlike the first floor, the manor servants who lived on this floor had a higher status, and were mostly the personal servants of the masters. It's as if Parker's butler lives nearby, but I don't know which room it is.
Although these servants had a higher status on the estate than the slaves and servants on the first floor, most of the rooms were still austere and cramped, with little furnishings.
Qin Lun and Susan inspected several rooms in this corridor, and the things inside were basically rotten, and the floor of the room creaked when stepped on, making people very worried about whether it would collapse below.
"What happened here?" After seeing the layout in these guest rooms, Qin Lun and Susan could vaguely surmise the scene when an accident happened in the manor at that time.
The servants' rooms were dusty, and though most of the items were rotten, the wardrobe in the corner was not in any mess. It can be seen that there was no riot at that time, which also ruled out the possibility of black slave riots~.
In this case, the source of the manor may still be the owners of the manor, and the English gentleman who killed Carmen and kidnapped Susan in the first place may be Baron Wilson.
After inspecting the room in the corridor, Qin Lun took Susan and began to turn into the right side of the corridor. The corridor on the second floor is in the shape of a "back", and now they are on the right passage.
"Wait, don't push this room open yet!" Walking to the first three rooms, Susan frowned tightly and stopped Qin Lun.
"What's wrong?"
"This room is not a guest room, it seems to be a rest room for servants." Susan hesitated.
The personal servants in the noble manor usually have one such lounge. Of course, it can also be called a standby room for personal servants. The owners of the manor get up every day, and they pull the rope at the head of the bed.
These ropes connect to the bells of the lounge, each of which corresponds to a specific owner of the manor, who may be a man, a hostess, or a young master.
Since this large guest room is the rest room of the servants, Qin Lun and Susan really have to be careful, because there may be zombie servants in it that they have seen before.
"How do you know this isn't your average guest room?" Qin Lun's eyes flashed, and he looked at Susan thoughtfully.
"Because I've seen ......," Susan was a little distressed, and she didn't know how to explain it, "remember when I said earlier that I had seen an oil painting of Wilson Manor in my grandfather's room?" ”
"Well, but the oil painting doesn't tell the inside of the manor, right?" Qin Lun raised his eyebrows and said in surprise.
"Oh no, I can see some, I can see it from the window at the entrance of the cave......"
It's just that Qin Lun quickly overturned his conclusion, and after looking at the location of the corridor in the manor, he immediately understood that the large guest room in front of him seemed to be located in front of the manor. If there is a window in the painting, you can really see a little bit of the inside.
"Chris, it's so easy to talk to you, but how can I still feel frustrated!" Susan touched her head and sighed.
"It's not okay if you don't go in, you get out of the way. If there are zombies inside, protect yourself from them. ”
Qin Lun vaguely felt that there would be something to gain next, after all, he could make Susan associate something from the oil painting, proving that this was indeed an important plot point.
"Oh, okay...... It doesn't matter what hurts you! Susan asked with concern, and seeing that Qin Lun's face was no longer as pale as before, she immediately muttered to herself, "It seems that the world is not what we usually see, I don't know how many people like Chris are there in the world?" ”
Qin Lun didn't have the time to pay attention to Susan's careful thoughts at this time, and controlled a metal handle on the door of the Holy Thorn Roll, slowly pulling it apart......
It's just that what Qin Lun didn't expect was that as soon as he opened the door a little bit, an acquaintance came out of it.
"Chris? How did you end up here? Tony looked at Qin Lun in surprise, with the same vivid expression on his face as yesterday, except for a little surprise, he couldn't see any difference from a living person at all.
"......" Qin Lun looked at him and blinked, but before he could find a suitable excuse, Tony turned around and closed the door and pulled him back, "Okay, no matter what, since you're here, do me a favor!" If you are seen by Butler Parker, you will say that I called you up. ”
"Chris, look, the walls around ......" Susan poked him lightly in the back.
Without Susan's reminder, Qin Lun had already noticed. The moment Tony appeared, the decaying corridor began to take a strange turn.
The moss and damage on the walls are quickly disappearing, the floors are back to neat and clean, the lights in the hallways are turning on one by one, and everything around is restoring to the moment when the manor had not suffered an accident.
"Tony, I, I just want to get acquainted with this place......" Qin Lun scratched his scalp with a pretended embarrassment.
"Haha, understood, understood, when I first came to the manor, I was also curious." Tony pulled Qin Lun towards the path they had come, but he didn't seem to see the blood stains on Qin Lun's body and Susan who was following him, as if they were just a cloud of air.
Although Tony behaved very strangely, Qin Lun also pretended not to see it and let him pull his sleeves.
"By the way, Tony, what do you want me to help you with?" Qin Lun asked pretending not to care.
"Oh, sorry, I haven't said it yet!" Tony walked to the entrance of the stairs and actually pulled him towards the third floor, which was already the room of the directors of the manor, "You know that I am the personal valet of the little master, but there were a lot of guests yesterday, and I can't get out, can I trouble you to help the little master get dressed......"
"Young Master Wilson Manor?" Qin Lun's eyes flashed, but he said with some trepidation, "I'm clumsy, I won't make the little young master angry, right?" ”
"Oh, no problem, the little master of our manor is not the same as an ordinary aristocratic boy, you will know when you see him, as long as you don't do anything too rude, he won't treat you badly!" Tony made a pleading look, "The favor you owed me yesterday, will you pay it back by helping?" Please, please! ”
"Okay, but if the little master doesn't want to, then you have to come by yourself!" Qin Lun agreed with a smile.
"Don't worry, no problem!" Tony confidently led Qin Lun to the front of a guest room on the third floor, and then raised his hand and knocked on the door.
Qin Lun greeted Susan behind him, motioning for her to follow him, but not too close.
"Tony, come in!" A slightly immature voice came from the room. After hearing this voice, Tony gave Qin Lun a thumbs up, as if to say that it was all up to you, and then quickly disappeared to the other end of the corridor.
Qin Lun, on the other hand, tidied up his instrument, pushed the door and walked in.
