The structure of this haunted house is apparently asymmetrical, with three rooms on the left side of the cloister and only two on the right. Of course, whether you go to the left or the right, at the end of the www.biquge.info staircase is a staircase that leads to the third floor. Dalton is like going straight to the third floor, but as is the custom of Aluca, it's impossible to go upstairs until the second floor is explored.

In desperation, Dalton had no choice but to accommodate Aluca's curiosity, and he felt that he could not find a way out if he went up alone. In this way, the two of them came to the first room on the right side of the cloister.

This room is similar to the room I met with Terry's children before, and it is also a bedroom. However, there are no signs of fighting, and the single beds, wardrobes, tables and chairs are neatly placed in place, and the surface is covered with dust. The curtains in this room were not closed, and through the window, a bright moon could be seen hanging outside the window...... A bright moon with a human face and a wooden sign in his hand. The wooden sign reads "Solemnly protest against smoking in public places." But the sun with the pipe is on the other side of the house, so what's the use of it holding up a sign here? The sun can't see it......

Dalton glanced around and said, "It doesn't look like there's anything here, and the door didn't close suddenly." ”

"On the contrary, there must be something hidden here. Aluca objected, and at the same time played the spirit of being a good teacher, and explained in detail, "Reasoning is actually not difficult, I personally think it is divided into three steps. The first step is to observe every detail. The second step is to connect the details for cross-comparison. The third step is to identify the special elements. The question is, what's so special about this room?"

Dalton shook his head.

"First of all, we came to this haunted house and found something in the living room that we could use. Next, we went to the second floor, and that's when I noticed a strange place. In the first two rooms on the left side of the cloister, the furniture is covered with a gray cloth, so why is the living room not covered? Is this logical? If only the piano is covered, it can be understood that the master has given up his musical dream and left the stage of the voice of Ainos. But the contents of the study were also covered, which was the most common place for the aristocracy. Saying goes...... A person may go without a book for a day, but he cannot go without a book for a day. ”

"What the hell is this saying! What the hell is the voice of Ainos!"

"When we came to the third room with the monsters, the contents of the room were not covered with a grey cloth. This shows that there must be something worth exploring in any room without a grey cloth. There are some things that you can do as long as you want to do them and you have the means to do them. ”

Dalton shook his head and said, "No, I think...... Maybe it's a gift. ”

"Well, you have a similar idea to Poe. He believes that reasoning and quick thinking cannot be equated, and uses chess and bridge as analogies. Personally, I think that both of these traits can be cultivated, and no one is born a genius, and I can't be a ......" Speaking of the book, Aluka started the gushing mode.

"Stop, let's find out what's in this room first, I don't understand a word of what you're saying. ”

Seeing that the child could not be taught, Aluka had no choice but to compromise and ...... hard, desperately, and carefully I rested on the single bed. There was no way, seriously injured and sick, and the search had to continue to be handed over to Dalton.

A few minutes later, Dalton ended the search. The room's wardrobes, bedside tables, desk drawers, and low cabinets were empty, but Dalton found a thin-bladed knife under the bed. After Arouca took it, he bit the necklace with his teeth without saying a word, and took a knife in his hand to pry off the jade on the jade necklace. The blade was inserted into the gap between the jadeite and the base, and it was as if the knife had been made for this purpose.

"Now only the jade necklace is not used, and then it is connected to this knife, there is no doubt that it is used. "Now we can go to the second room." ”

Dalton didn't disagree, and he now had an inexplicable trust in Aluca. Like Aluca said before, if it's Sinon...... After being with Aluka for a long time, it feels like he can do everything.

The second room, still the bedroom. From this, Aluca deduced that there were three permanent residents in this haunted house, and that the owner was not married, otherwise all three rooms would not be single. And the room near the study, naturally, is the master's bedroom, and the other two may be the servant's room. However, in terms of furnishings, there is no difference between the three rooms.

This time, as soon as I entered the room, the door closed automatically. Dalton and Aluka immediately fought 120,000 points in spirit, such a small room is different from the kitchen, and it is much more dangerous to fight. However, after waiting for a long time, nothing happened. In the quiet room, the expressions and movements of the two people looked silly......

"Ahem...... Aluka coughed twice to hide her embarrassment, "We don't seem to need to be so nervous. ”

"No, I feel something moving on the table. Dalton says his special vision really works.

Arouca was not afraid at all, and instructed: "Come over and take a look, be careful." ”

......

It turns out that neither care nor tension is required. What the two of them found on the desk was just a thumb-sized girl. She was bouncing around the table, waving her arms excitedly, as if shouting something.

In order to hear what Thumbelina was saying, Aluka had to get off Dalton's back and lean his back against the desk to pass his ear.

I heard the thumbelina shout......

"Two big stupid men, help me!"

As soon as Aluka heard this, she came to her senses and said gently: "Your Royal Highness Princess, your knight saves ......"

Dalton complained without hesitation: "Where! Where is the princess! Uncle, can you be normal!"

"It's late. But Aluka finished speaking, and paused for a long time before saying, "What can I do?"

Thumbelina chirped, "Let's start at the beginning...... It's a haunted house, you know?"

Aluka was shocked: "I don't know!"

Dalton covered his face, speechless. Pretend to look like you......

Thumbelina smirked "I knew you didn't": "It's a haunted house, and ghosts often attack me, if I hadn't hid it well...... You won't see me!"

"Oh my God! It's as if the two of you really know each other! I'm the only one who has been hidden!" Dalton finally couldn't restrain his complaint.

"Please tell me where the goblins that attacked you are, and I'll fix it for you!" Arouca is addicted to role-playing games......

"You don't have to. Thumbelina snorted coldly, rather disdainful, "None of the men can be relied upon, you can help me find a shield." ”

Without saying a word, Aluka took out the jade she had just pried off from her pocket and handed it to Thumbelina, which was just right for her to hold on to her chest. Aluka swore an oath: "Your Highness Princess, this is an absolute defensive shield forged by the best craftsmen in our kingdom, and no weapon can break this shield. Look at this clear texture, this cool shape, this warm feel...... At the same time, he also made an absolute defense-breaking spear that can break any shield, but it is relatively large and not suitable for you to use, so I will not give it to you. ”

"That's true, uncle, I'm almost convinced! And your words are completely inconsistent! Well, is this the origin of the contradiction......

"Hmph, there really isn't a reliable one for men. Thumbelina cursed and walked away with the jade in her arms, as a piece of paper fell from the sky.

The graffiti on the pieces of paper shows that the thumbelina is a little girl who participates in the pen fairy game. Her wish was to retrieve her grandmother's lost token of love - a piece of jade. It's just that I don't know why the devil didn't kill her, but just imprisoned her in a haunted house after she became smaller, was it because she was moved by her relatives...... But it can be seen that in fact, the little girl has no memory of the past, and she doesn't even know that she was once human. Her world may always be the size of this desk.

But human beings ...... What is more, I am imprisoned in my heart, afraid of the future, afraid of my dreams......

Aluka glanced at Dalton, whose soul was still burning, and said, "You must think that I said so much to her out of fun." ”

Dalton nodded and said, "That's right, no matter what you say this time, I won't change my mind, you're just doing it for fun." ”

"Hmph......" Aluka didn't object, but said, "Remember The Legend of the Fallen Heroes? The title of the second chapter above is Shield of Reversal of Truth. As you can imagine, if I hadn't lied to deal with Thumbgirl, she wouldn't have accepted the piece of jade. ”

Dalton was surprised: "I see...... You even thought of that...... Sure enough, I'm still ......."

"No, lie to you, I just thought it was fun. Even if I didn't lie, she would have accepted it. Hahahahaha......" Arouca smiled happily......

Dalton looked at Aluuca for a moment, then silently turned to leave.

"Wait...... Wait!" Arouca limped after him, "Don't be angry! Just kidding! Dalton! Iron Armor! Handsome guy! Okay, okay...... I'm sorry, I was wrong, I'll try to play as little fun as I can with you in the future...... Well, as much as possible. ”

"If only you had said that earlier?" Dalton turned, "Actually, I don't care if you play tricks on me, I just hope you don't forget that although I am no longer human, I also have joys and sorrows. ”

Aluka put on an expression like this: "Oh, then you can rest assured, normal people and I have played with them one by one, and it is not because you are a pair of armor...... Hmph, so you're underestimating me. ”

"......" Dalton covered his face, "I underestimated you......"
