Chapter Twenty-Nine: Romance in the Mirror VI

After Luobei returned from Yangcheng, he devoted himself to the development of perfumes. The development process was very secretive, and Luo Bei only allowed Lin Shuang to watch quietly from the sidelines.

Lin Shuang leaned on the sofa in Luobei's studio, watching Luobei work intently. Luo Bei wears a black T-shirt, a pair of whitish jeans, and a pair of white sneakers on his feet. This casual casual outfit, lined with Luobei's white and moist skin and stunning handsome face, exudes a noble and distant temperament.

Luo Bei spread a white handkerchief on the table in front of him, picked up the perfume he bought in Yangcheng the day before from the side, and dropped a few drops on the handkerchief. Then, he quickly picked up his handkerchief and shook it in front of him, squinting his eyes to identify the ingredients in the perfume. Luo Bei said the name of the spice as he quickly wrote it down on the white paper prepared in advance. Five minutes later, Luo Bei slowly opened his eyes and smiled with satisfaction.

"Sure enough, these spices are similar to what I guessed in advance, but the proportions of the combination are more distinctive." Luo Bei turned his head and said to Lin Shuang, although Lin Shuang didn't understand this.

Luo Bei removed the used white handkerchief on the table and put on the same white handkerchief again. He pulled out another bottle of perfume from the side and repeated the process he had just used to identify the fragrance. Luo Bei's mouth was still intermittently chanting the names of the spices, and at the same time he was quickly making notes on the white paper. Suddenly, Luo Bei seemed to be frightened by something, his body trembled violently, and he almost threw away the pen in his hand.

"This, how can it be 、、、、、、" Luo Bei muttered uneasily.

Luo Bei then replaced a handkerchief on the desktop and redid the program just now. He closed his eyes tightly, his eyelids twitching, his fingers trembling as he re-recorded the ingredients of the bottle on a blank piece of paper. He let out a low, painful roar and fell on the table, shaking uncontrollably.

Lin Shuang was taken aback by Luo Bei's reaction, and didn't know what terrible things had happened?

"Luobei, what's wrong? What's going on? Lin Shuang walked to Luo Bei's side and gently touched Luo Bei's shoulder.

Luo Bei didn't speak for a long time, and when he raised his head, there were tears of pain in his eyes.

"Luobei, what's wrong with you?" Lin Shuang asked worriedly.

"It's nothing, I'm fine、、、、、、 Luo Bei whimpered, turned around and lay in Lin Shuang's arms.

Lin Shuang gently stroked Luo Bei's hair and silently comforted him. Something terrible must have happened, otherwise Luobei, who was calm and calm, would not be so alarmed.

I don't know how much time has passed, but Luo Bei's mood has finally stabilized.

"Lin Shuang, when I bought this bottle of perfume in the mall, I once asked where the supplier was? The salesperson said that the supplier of this perfume was in Yangcheng. When you were in Yangcheng, was there a murder of a woman there? The women who are victims are all women whose bodies emit fragrance. Luo Bei asked with a solemn expression.

Lin Shuang listened to Luo Bei's question, and immediately thought of Yang Luo on the 14th floor of the company. That Yang Luo loves to make perfumes and is almost obsessed. Lin Shuang once suspected that Yang Luo was the murderer of the woman. Because, the detailed experience of Yang Luo's crime and murder in the studio appeared in Lin Shuang's dreams several times. Although he didn't know why all these realistic illusions appeared repeatedly in his dreams, Lin Shuang felt that these illusions were very real.

"Luobei, you guessed correctly. In Yangcheng, five women have been victimized, and the murderer has not been found so far. All of the women who were victimized had a strange aroma from their bodies. After they were persecuted, their hair was cut off by the murderers. Moreover, although the women were naked, there were no signs of rape on their bodies. The murderer, according to the police, is presumed to be a man. However, he obviously did not rob and kill the woman for sexual gain. Lin Shuang said with palpitations.

"He, of course, is not here to rob sex. He's looking for ingredients for the perfume,、、、、、、" Luo Bei said word by word, his eyes sinking into a cold and silent void.

Lin Shuang was secretly surprised in her heart, Luo Bei's inference was consistent with the victimization of the woman who appeared in her dream before.

"Luobei, how can you be so sure?" Lin Shuang looked at the stunned Luobei and felt very strange.

"Because, I'm Luobei, so I know. In our family, there have been such people. He is obsessed with collecting all kinds of scents from all over the world and wants to create unique perfumes. He fell into a madness, and regarded the collection of aroma as more important than life, and he believed that aroma was the soul of all life. When he had tried all the scents of flowers in the world, all the animals and plants that had scents, he turned his attention to the women who were born with body scents. Later, he turned this crazy idea into reality, and sure enough, he made a perfume that could bring humanity to heaven. Luo Bei said a lot in one sentence.

"And what happened to this person?" Lin Shuang asked in horror.

"This person makes perfumes that can control people's minds. As soon as you smell the smell of this aroma, you will instantly forget yourself and ascend to a wonderful, carefree paradise. In that illusory paradise, there are beautiful and gorgeous flowers, long-awaited love, and a lot of beauty that you want in the world but can't get. That is, there is no pain or trouble. Later, this person's fame was greatly enhanced, and his wealth was rolling into fame and fortune. Later, this person's deeds were discovered by the imperial court and sentenced to death. A month after the incident, his wife could not bear the heavy blow and died of depression. When his wife died, the family was in decline, and only the four bottles of spices that his wife treasured during her lifetime were buried with her. His descendants are still alive today. After Luo Bei finished speaking, he closed his eyes in pain.

It's not pleasant to relive the nightmare. What's more, the demon who created the nightmare was his own relative. The family of Luobei started by making perfumes, and it was popular all over the world in the old days. Later, the family's perfume industry took a heavy hit and began to decline. Lin Shuang has heard more or less about this legend since he was a child. The descendants of this family also seem to have a soft spot for perfume.

The power of genetics can be so powerful. Luobei, so. The same is true for Yang Luo, who teaches hip-hop dance on the 14th floor of the company. Could it be that Yang Luo will be a descendant of the Luobei family? Otherwise, why would that Yang Luo and Luo Bei look so similar?

Lin Shuang suddenly remembered the tomb he had entered. In that burial chamber, there was a sarcophagus, and four bottles of perfume were placed next to the female corpse in the sarcophagus. Could it be that this female corpse is the lady in the Luobei family who died of depression? At that time, in the tomb, the zombie that attacked Lin Shuang was the man who was executed by Ling Chi in the Luobei family? In Lin Shuang's heart, the more she thought about it, the more terrible she felt.

"Lin Shuang, we must stop that criminal murderer, otherwise there will be more and more victimized women!" Luo Bei's eyes finally began to move flexibly, as if he had just woken up.

"Luobei, there is a male teacher in Yangcheng who teaches street dance named Yang Luo, and he looks very similar to you. He also likes to make perfumes. Xiaoli later disappeared in the laboratory where he made perfumes. Among the five women killed in Yangcheng, Xiaoli was among them. After Xiaoli's death, I often dreamed of the five women being killed by Yang Luo. I also once saw Yang Luo refining essence with a woman's body in an illusory mirror. When Lin Shuang said this, she couldn't help but tremble.

Luo Bei got up and walked to Lin Shuang's side and hugged Lin Shuang tightly in his arms. Lin Shuang lay in Luo Bei's arms and told Luo Bei in detail everything he saw in the illusion.

"Luobei, why was Xiaoli also killed? Xiaoli's body, there is no fragrance? Lin Shuang asked puzzled.

"Xiaoli was killed, that was the result of her behavior. It was the catastrophe of her life, and even if we could turn back time, we couldn't help her. I can only let her go, I hope she dies as soon as possible. Luo Bei said calmly, as if he was not surprised by all this.

"Luobei, it's not easy to stop Yang Luo. We don't have any evidence of what he did, and it's just speculation at the moment. Even if we want to call the police, the police will not believe us. Lin Shuang raised his head and stared into Luo Bei's eyes and said.

"Lin Shuang, if that Yang Luo is really a murderer, then I hope to be able to save him and let him know his way back. I don't want him to fall into the abyss of desire, and he will be wrong again and again. He should be the descendant of the ancestor who was executed by Ling Chi in our family. The method he uses to smelt the essence from the human body is called the 'oil separation method', and this secret method is known only to our family. When I was very young, I once heard my parents talk about Yang Luo. It's just that the branch of Yang Luo's family, after something happened in the family, moved the family abroad. So I've never been with him. Luo Bei's pale face had a faint layer of sadness.

Lin Shuang gently tugged at Luobei's sleeve and said cautiously, "Luobei, we will start school soon." Let's hurry up and prepare school supplies, shall we? ”

Luo Bei listened to Lin Shuang's words, reached out and rubbed Lin Shuang's seaweed-like long hair, and smiled lightly. Without saying a word, he took Lin Shuang's little hand and walked out of the house.
