The theft of Professor Capek's office soon became a hot topic throughout the graduate school.

Although it is already an unbelievable thing for someone to dare to steal in such a heavily guarded place as a master's college, what the hell is that everyone is more concerned about the other party's approach——— the entire safe has been taken away, what the hell is this?

There are even students who have been to Professor Capek's office and used their mathematical knowledge to calculate that the entire safe is about a meter tall and weighs about 180 kilograms.

For a while, all the students of the master's school were discussing this issue, and some people thought that it was driving, but driving must pass through the gate guarded by the guards. However, neither the guards nor the cameras photographed any traces of vehicles entering and leaving the master's school in the evening, not only that, but the most surprising thing is that such a large safe, no matter how it moves, at least it should leave traces.

However, the fact is that there is no trace in the entire office except for the traces left by the place where the safe was originally placed, and even the police scratch their heads when they come.

It's as if the entire large safe just disappeared out of the office.

This immediately aroused the curiosity of the students and even the teachers, and everyone was trying their best to argue and try to find a plausible explanation——— and even the professor was idle and bored to open a research group for this purpose, the topic of which was "to study how a 180-kilogram safe disappeared into thin air without being noticed and leaving no trace"............... If the funds are too much to be used, they can be given to other research groups.

Of course, the victim, Professor Chapek, was not so idle, and after the disappearance of the safe, he seemed to become more neurotic than the others. So much so that he has been huddled in his office, holding the leather bag that never leaves his body, hiding in the corner like a frightened hamster, and no one comes.........

Duanmu Huai naturally didn't know anything about Professor Capek's situation, in fact, he was now standing in front of the safe, and the heavy door of the safe, which was originally only closed, was now like a thick piece of brown paper being directly and rudely torn open, looking like a courier box, because the consignee was too lazy to open the box and directly tore it to pieces......... Well, it's pretty much the same for Duanmu locust anyway.

However, what is stored in the safe is a big surprise.

“…………… Love letter? ”

Looking at these love letters written in his hand in a numb and trembling tone, Duanmu Huai only felt that his whole person was not good. The words in it were so artificial, it made him want to cry......... Well, it may also be because Duanmu Huai has never written love letters, so there is no way to understand this practice.

It's just that these love letters are not addressed to Charlotte, but to a woman named Mariabel.

Of course, Duanmu Huai is not interested in love letters, let alone other women, but fortunately, in addition to hiding his love letters, the professor's safe finally stores some useful information and photos.

Among them, there are also records of the study of Chapek.

According to the document, the Chapek Institute originally originated from a séance held by Dr. Capek a year earlier......... Well, European aristocrats always like these things that can't be put on the table, to be honest, Duanmu Huai can't understand what this group of nobles do every day when they are idle, what séances will be for, and what psychic will be for.

You say it's like a Japanese ghost movie, a few girls are not sensible and make a fox fairy to play a thrill, how old are you, and you are still fascinated by these messy things all day long, is it bad to smoke? Bad wine? Women aren't fun anymore? Or is there not enough medicine?

If you have nothing to do, you have to die.

It is unknown what revelations the idiots received from the séance, but after the séance was over, they made the decision to open the gates of Tartary ——— gain supreme power.

The Gate of Tatar, the gate of hell held by the legendary goddess of the underworld, Hekater............ Well, it's really impatient to live, and I'm idle and have nothing to do.

Then here, Duanmu Huai saw a familiar name again.

Professor Capek is a professor at the Graduate School and is one of the guests of the Silver Twilight Cottage...............

Well, it's the Silver Twilight Cottage again, and it's understandable why these idiots are idle.

Truth be told, the role of an idle idiot like Professor Capek's ability to thrive in the upper echelons as a stealthy cult has been greatly attributed to the role played by idiots like Professor Capek.........

At this point, the matter is already clear.

The seven neurotics belonging to the Silvertwilight hut hold a séance, and then, knowing what enlightenment they have received, they plan to open the gates of hell. They used the séance to make a pact with the world where the Gate of Tartar is located——— that is, the city of darkness where Duanmu Huai and Mary had visited before, and thus obtained the monster as a half-body of their soul. Next, it seems that whoever can complete the cultivation of the monster will be able to reach and open the gate of Tatar.........

And those girls who were killed in the streets were sacrifices to the mouths of monsters, their bodies torn apart, and their souls devoured for tribute and sacrifice.

Well, Duanmu Huai now finally understands why these guys are chasing the golden pupils, Mary's golden pupils are like Tang monk meat in their eyes, and if you eat them, you can become immortal and become an immortal. It's no wonder that these monsters run after Mary, and if he were a monster, he would chase him......... After all, there is no Monkey King by this Tang Seng.

It's just that this group of guys is also the same as the monsters in Journey to the West, they are quite polite, they don't rush up, but send them one by one......... Isn't this just a gourd baby saving grandpa?

Of course, in the process of exploration, they were not without losses, and the woman named Mariabel that Professor Capek had in mind died because of it. The Advent of the Seven was disbanded, but the idea of pursuing the Gate of Tartar did not change.

Then in the following year, Charlotte. Brontë approached Professor Capek and joined his research group.

That is, she also joined the quest for the Tatar Gate and ......... According to Professor Capek, her soul seems to have successfully entered the Tatar Gate, and what remains here is only a pure physical body.

But the question is, how did Charlotte do it?

Just as Duanmuhuai was thinking, suddenly, a rapid telephone rang, Duanmuhuai picked up the microphone, and then Mary's slightly panicked voice came from the microphone.

"Hello, I'm Mary. Clarissa. Christie, may I ask ..............."

"It's me, what's wrong?"

"Ah, sir......... Great........."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's muffled voice, Mary breathed a sigh of relief.

"Just now, I received an email from Xia Li! It was sent to me by Xia Li the day before she fell unconscious! ”

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai raised his eyebrows.

"Very good, come to me, it just so happens that I have something very important to tell you......"

It wasn't long before there was a quick knock at the door, and Duanmu Huai walked over to open the door, only to see Mary standing there panting.

"Come in."

"yes, sorry to bother you........."

As she spoke, Mary walked into the room, and when she reached the living room, Mary saw at a glance the safe that was sitting there with the door torn open.

“………………………”

Looking at the safe, Mary was stunned, speechless. It was Duanmu Huai's voice that brought her back to her senses.

"What about faith?"

"Ah, here."

As she spoke, Mary carefully took out the letter from her bosom and handed it over, while Duanmu Huai also lowered her head and stared at the letter.

“…………… What the hell is this?? ”

What is written on it is a text that Duanmu Huai can't read at all, like a random patchwork of garbled characters.

"Ah, this is the Qadasi inscription, Xia Li and I replaced the pronunciation of the inscription with letters, and then wrote it into an article, which Xia Li and I occasionally use to communicate......... It's kind of a code game. ”

“…………………”

The Faculty of History even has such a hardcore game, which is amazing.

"You can read it."

Duanmu Huai decisively raised his hand and surrendered.

"Okay."

Mary took the letter and looked at the text again.

[Dear Mary......... By the time you read this letter, I'm afraid I'm dead, and if I didn't, I'm sure ......... I can't have afternoon tea with you and Ash anymore. Sorry, Mary, you must be in a mess right now. I don't even know what's going on, and I think I'm confusing you.

I'm sorry, but that's fine. It's okay if you don't know about it. So......... Please, if you ......... If you're worried about me too much and you're in any danger, please, stop.

Forget me, forget me, all the nasty things, all the horrible things. Forget me, I'm sure I'll be fine, please, Mary......... You have to study hard, keep being friends with Ashie, and you have to live happily tomorrow......... Please, please, my lovely Mary, my favorite Mary, can't cry oh, keep smiling......... Mary. Clarissa, I wish you happiness .........]

At the end, Mary lowered her head, trembling with tears in her eyes.

Duanmu Huai looked at Mary suspiciously, and then at the letterhead.

You're just friends, you say?

How do I feel the same breath as Ann and Gurea?

You can't read it as a friend, do you?

In other words, why are there all this kind of people around me?

Ann and Gourea, Hauser and Césaire, and now a couple more Mary and Charlotte?

It's over, isn't it?

But this letter is also the most important piece of the puzzle.

"It just so happens that what I'm going to tell you has something to do with it."

After Mary had calmed down, Duanmu Huai spoke, and then he took out the documents and explained the situation to Mary.

I have to say that when Mary read the documents in front of her, she was completely stunned.

She didn't expect that the friend who had been with her all the time and had been a childhood sweetheart since she was a child would actually take the initiative to join a cult!

And, judging by this letter, she had already contacted Professor Capek years ago!

This, how is this possible?

Mary couldn't believe what she was seeing, and instinctively wanted to deny it, but reason told her that it was true, but .........

"Why? Why did Xia Li do this? ”

"Even if you ask me, I don't know........."

Duanmu Huai spread his hands helplessly, in fact, looking at Mary in front of him, he had a guess, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Xia Li's letter to Mary was simply a love letter, but Mary herself didn't seem to react to it. That is, one of the pairs is curved and the other is straight?

And then there is the falling flowers, intentionally flowing mercilessly?

So the one who bent gave up on himself and went after what Tartar gate? Could it be that the Tartar Gate can even do this?

Of course, this is just Duanmu Huai's speculation, after all, it may be that there are too many Ji Ya around him, so everyone looks like Ji Yao.........

Or maybe they're just pure friendship?

Probably?

But fortunately, although she was greatly stimulated, Mary still adhered to the ladylike demeanor, and quickly calmed down, but she clutched the letter and documents in her hand and couldn't say anything for a while. Duanmu Huai also glanced at Lorena, who immediately brought Mary a cup of black tea.

In fact, logically speaking, Duanmu Huai does not need to completely exposition these and discs. But he never does this kind of thing, to be honest, in the game, Duanmu Huai often encounters an investigation of some kind of truth, and finally will jump out of the option of whether to tell the person concerned——— at this time Duanmu Huai will basically choose to tell.

The reason is very simple, after all, this is someone else's business, no matter what the truth is, no matter whether the other party commits suicide in despair or cheers up after knowing the truth, it is his own choice. To deceive the other party with the idea of the good of the other party, this kind of thing can't be done, what kind of gentle lies, cruel truth, this is not what you should decide.

In the same way, in the whole thing, you are just a melon eater, and you are not a witness, so why do you need to control other people's lives according to your own ideas?

Just like now, Duanmu Huai could have concealed some of the content and only told Mary about the Silvertwilight Hut and the Tartar Gate, but he still directly told Xia Li about the connection between the cultist organization......... The reason is that it is not himself who is friends with Charlotte, so what to do is Mary's business, and he is not qualified to make decisions for Mary.

"Thank you..............."

After taking a sip of black tea, Mary's mood seemed to calm down a lot.

"Sorry, I'm in a mess, I think I should go back and think about it........."

"It's okay, understandable."

"Well, sorry, it's rude."

As she spoke, Mary stood up, and as if to change the subject, she looked directly at the safe in the living room.

"May I ask if this safe is Professor Capek's .........?"

"yes."

"Uh......... How did you get it back? ”

"That's how I carried it back."

“………………………”

I don't know why, these words came out of Duanmu Huai's mouth, and Mary felt particularly convincing.

"Excuse me, what are you going to do with this safe?"

"Just find a place to throw it away, you can't return it, do you? Is there a scrap metal buyer in this place? ”

"Uh......... Kindness received ........."
