Chapter 24: The Truth
Sazar dragged Qilier all the way to the fifth floor, though he knew that this blind escape would not solve the problem in the end. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Ahh
"What's going on?" Saza turned around.
"My foot twisted. ”
Oh my God, such a bloody thing happened at this time! He had no choice but to bend down and go to the eldest lady's side: "Come up!"
"Hmm!" the eldest lady was completely unceremonious, and turned directly on his back.
Saza put his hands on his hands and started running, but he felt the figure on his back tremble visibly, and then she began to pat and twist on his shoulder.
"Oops, big fool, wrong, wrong, hands should be on thighs!"
Saza reacted and moved his hand to her thigh, after all, this was the first time to carry a girl, and he tried his best to hide his embarrassment: "I know, I know, it's all at this time!"
After running up to the fifth floor, Saza dared to stop and take a breath, no matter how light the person on his back was, it was useless, he was still a mage after all.
When he put down the eldest lady, he suddenly heard a sound from under his feet, and it was her wooden box that fell to the ground.
The moonlight shone down the hallway, allowing Saza to see what had fallen out of the wooden box, a wishing paper, and a folded piece of paper.
"You may have made that wish?" asked Saza in a deep voice. At this time, he felt more fear than before, how selfish and hypocritical the girls around him must have been to hide this fact until now. The pieces of paper in the wooden boxes of the other four people before all had important information, and this piece of paper must also contain very important content, and this part of the information was something they had always missed, and it might even affect all of what happened to them just now!
"So what are you doing!" Qi Li'er glared at him with disgust, "Won't you see for yourself what I wish?"
Saza glanced at her, picked up the wishing paper on the ground, and he looked at the crooked words on it: I hope I can marry a handsome guy!
He couldn't help but laugh dumbly, this is really the wish made by this eldest lady, but in this way, it is completely inconsistent with the previous logic, and the eldest lady did not make that wish at all and even got a note. Could it be that from the very beginning these notes had nothing to do with the wishes made, and that they were simply to remind the five people who had made the vows? I didn't forget to ridicule first: "The writing is really not good, okay, I'm sorry, it's me who spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." ”
"Humph!"
Saza picked up another yellow piece of paper and another profile. This man's name is Bolton Wavari, and he is a member of Neville's staff, and he was hired on the 24th day of the month of the Wind in the year 467 of the Star Era!
He looked down quickly, but most of it was useless information, until he saw the final summary of the material: the school had taken him in out of sympathy at first, but the school had just been expanded at the time, and it did need some new people. Perhaps because he was afraid that he would lose his job because of his foot disability, his work attitude was much better than others, and he even consciously went to the corridor every night to inspect it.
This is... Saza knew at once who this Bolton was, the lame old servant! If so, reintegrating the information would come to a completely different conclusion!
"Gree. Saza's voice was so heavy that it seemed difficult to even speak.
"Huh?" Sensing that Saza's mood was a little strange, the eldest lady was no longer playful.
Sure enough, he said something that made the atmosphere even more weird: "Actually, none of the news we've gotten so far has definitely mentioned that the wall chisel has been arrested or died, right?"
The eldest lady didn't understand what he meant for a while, tilted her head and thought about it, and nodded slowly: "It seems like this! What do you want to say?"
"See for yourself. Saza handed her the paper, and he pointed to the most important part of the summary, "Who do you think he could be?" Every piece of information we've ever had had something to do with the Demonic Blood Crystal, and he shouldn't be an exception, and the time he appeared, and his appearance today, all of this means that he can't be unrelated to all of this. ”
"It's... That lame old servant?" Gillier recognized Bolton, "but why do you think he's a wall worm? It's entirely possible that he's anyone who came looking for the Demon Blood Crystal!"
"Remember the weakness of the wall worm written on the black notice? I think one of them should be a dark disease, right?" Saza said confidently, "I don't think it would be that coincidental, and the other person who came to find the Demon Blood Crystal also happened to be a cripple." ”
"Still not right," Qi Li'er still couldn't accept this conclusion, after all, the old servant looked harmless to humans and animals no matter how he looked at it, "If he was a wall chisel worm, wasn't the Demon Pattern Blood Crystal in his hand at that time?
"Then let me ask you, why would a wanted criminal on the run kill a genius schoolgirl, that's not a guy to mess with!" Saza pointed to the Bolton profile again, "Look here, it says, he will take the initiative to patrol the school at night, what do you think can be done at night besides patrolling?"
"What do you mean... Senior Sister Caroline snatched the Demon Pattern Blood Crystal from him, and the Blood Crystal had been hidden in the school all along, and the Chisel Wall Worm was here for a long time to find the Blood Crystal?"
Saza also sighed, feeling sorry for the genius who died young, but in fact, at this time he still remembered a question in his heart, but he didn't have time to think about it at this time.
"Do you think that all the strange talk caused by the disappearance of the senior sister in school was completely made up by him to scare off students who love to come to school at night?" asked Qi Li'er, indeed, the kind of situation she said was also possible.
"Didn't you come at last?" Saza looked at her with a smirk, "it shouldn't be like that, he's the one who suffers from it." I had never understood why a night watchman was so obsessed with opening the door, or if it was to create a paradoxical illusion in the sense of deception, but now I realized that it was because of fear. At that time, if he was a wall worm and brutally killed Caroline behind the door of a certain classroom, just as his weakness was mentioned on the black notice, he was timid and suspicious, and those strange stories would definitely cause him to be uneasy and panicked, so when he was looking for demonic blood crystals in the building at night, he would definitely open every door first, to make sure that Caroline's ghost did not come back to him. In fact, he has always been the most feared person. ”
Qi Li'er finally accepted Saza's judgment, and indeed every clue pointed the finger at the old servant, and then she reacted: "But although this wall chisel worm has been looking here every night, it has not been killed by any ghosts, so those strange things are all nonsense?
"Not necessarily. Don't forget, he's been in the habit of opening the door to this day!There must be something that would convince him of the existence of ghosts, and look," he flicked the information, "and if those things don't exist, who sent them to us?"
"I always thought it was someone in the classroom. The eldest lady said something that surprised Saza. It turned out that she had always been so sober, even more sober than him. But this statement does not explain the many tricks that have come their way.
During the day, the door of the classroom on the third floor was inexplicably closed, and he was trapped in the toilet in the afternoon, and there was that dream, and then he found the five people playing tricky games in the classroom on the third floor, and later he learned that the wish spirit in that classroom was actually the so-called woman behind the door. There were connections between all these events, and these connections were so coincidental that he could not explain them with common sense, and then he unconsciously became more convinced than anyone else that the incredible force existed. Most importantly, the body seems to have instinctively believed in the existence of the ghosts from the beginning.
In fact, the person who believes in reality the most firmly is the eldest lady Qi Li'er who is playing the spirit game with great interest, which really surprises him.
Saza was about to say something, but suddenly a voice sounded in his ears, and it was so close that it seemed like someone was talking in his ear, and he turned around sharply. But they didn't see anything.
"What's wrong with you?" said Kirilla, feeling a little uneasy.
"Didn't you hear?" asked Saza in surprise, the voice so clear, how could she not hear it when she was so close to herself?
The eldest lady shook her head and replied, "No." ”。
Not far from the two of them was a classroom for the senior apprentices, who had always been much better than the junior ones. Even the door of the classroom is different, the door of the classroom is a sliding door.
"Bang" The sliding door slammed shut, causing her to shrink back on Saza's back.
A sudden strong sensation in Saza's body was pushing him closer to the door. But he did consciously resist approaching the door, which had left a lingering impression on him.
"Saza!" Qiliel pulled him worriedly. And Saza, after a struggle of thoughts, finally chose to give her a determined look, and then got rid of her hand and walked to the door.
The closer he got to the door, the more he could hear a voice, and eventually, he put his ear to the door, and then he could clearly hear her talking, yes! she, the woman behind the door, the Spirit, Caroline, she was whispering, "Help me, kind people, help me." That old man is dangerous, and everyone else will be in danger if they go, maybe only you can help me!" The voice came from inside the classroom, and it seemed as if there was only a thin door between them, and it seemed as if she was talking to his ear inside.
Saza wanted to hear her say a few more words, when the sliding door slid open again, his movements still holding his ear to the door.
He turned his head slowly, but there was not a mouth pressed against his ear as he had imagined. The classroom was empty, there was nothing but desks and chairs, it was really a dead soul!
"So she's been trying to ask us for help!" After a short thought, Saza came to his senses and ran back to Kirilla's side, "Now I'm sure that that Senpai's ghost is real! ”
"Before that..."
"I think those encounters on the third floor were directed and acted by the Wall Chisel, and he must have heard that we were going to find the Demon Pattern Blood Crystal before deciding to do something to us! And on the fourth floor we met the real her, which is why Duke and Luna were not killed, and she said that if only we can help her, then she should just protect the superfluous people. ”
"The wall chisel is so afraid of her, why doesn't she find him herself?Besides, even a magical genius like her was killed by him in the first place, how can we avenge her?"
Because she didn't have that ability, the Wallworm's fear of her was simply out of his ignorance. You come up and talk as you go. Saza put her on his back again, this time with much more skill, "I once read a book called 'Taboo of the Soul'. ”
"It sounds like a forbidden book, where did you read it, and where are we going now?" she interjected.
"Harvey may be in danger now, we have to find him, and the wall worm. As for the book, I don't remember where I read it, I only remember what it was, "Saza is not lying, about the content of this book, it is the original memory of this body, but there is no memory of where and when he read the book." He went on to say the following: "It was mentioned in that book that a ghost like Caroline should be born out of hatred, and it is precisely the object of their hatred that cannot be harmed by such a ghost, because these people are the source of their hatred, and with these people, there is a power of hatred to maintain their existence, in other words, once the person they hate is killed, it will not be long before these souls will dissipate. And revenge has always been the desire of the soul consciousness, not the desire of the soul body itself, the soul body has the instinct of self-preservation, so their soul body will instinctively resist them to hurt the source of hatred by themselves. It is like a person who wants to put his hand into the fire, and his idea is to put his hand into the fire, but out of instinct, the hand will reflexively withdraw itself, and perhaps the strong-willed person can suppress the instinct of the hand to take it back, but the dead soul can never resist the instinct of the soul body to protect itself. So if these undead really want revenge, they can only resort to external forces. ”
The two of them had already descended to the fourth floor, and the eldest lady still had endless questions for her: "Then how can we help her get revenge now? And she hasn't been able to find anyone who can help her for more than 30 years, why choose us now. Fortunately, Saza had a patience to answer these questions that he hadn't even thought of himself.
"That's exactly what I wondered. But I could hear her plea just now, but you couldn't, and I think that's probably why she chose me. ”
"And what can I do to help her, take down that villain?" she asked, leaning over to Saza's face.
"Yes. Saza tilted his face a little away and replied.
"What!?" the eldest lady didn't notice his subtle movements, but just shouted in surprise.
"Don't get me wrong, you may not be able to do anything, but your private soldiers and the like who come to you won't be as incompetent as you. ”
"You!" Saza's blunt words made the eldest lady toss on his back in annoyance, "let me go, you bastard! I sneaked out tonight and left a note forbidding anyone to come to me!"
Saza sneered and replied, "That's right, they'll definitely come." "This chick really amazes him when she's smart, but when she's stupid, she seems to be more stupid than anyone else.
After hearing his answer, Qi Lier became even more annoyed and angry, and clamored to go down. In fact, he didn't want to put her down, as a frail mage, he was going to be run upstairs and downstairs by a big living person, which was really fatal. But now he had to rush downstairs to find Harvey who was with the wall chisel, and he couldn't help but bring this eldest lady, after all, if it wasn't for her, even if those private soldiers found him, they wouldn't necessarily help him.
"Be honest, I, I'm tired enough to run with you on my back..."All he can do now is to go back and discuss with this eldest lady, but what he didn't expect was that when he turned around, the two of them happened to face each other, and his mouth was almost touching the cherry red lips. In a flash, a beautiful face jumped into his mind again, it was the girl who kissed him on the night of the sea. He hurriedly turned his head back, secretly glad that he hadn't turned back much.
Although I don't know why I always think of that girl, this accident quieted the girl on my back.
In the blink of an eye, they were running to where Vivien, Duke, and Luna were, where they all felt like they were asleep, and it was the best for them so that they didn't have to face fear and danger. Of course, the premise is that Saza's operation will not fail, otherwise everyone, perhaps, will die.
Coming to the staircase on the third floor, Saza stopped. Looking at the abyssal blackness, he still needed to stop, he tilted his face back slightly and asked, "Silly girl, do you believe me?"
"Hmm. At this time, Qi Lier doesn't care about what he calls herself.
So Saza opened his legs and walked towards the abyss......
