Chapter 39: The Haunted Villa

Early morning.

Arka washed up in his hotel room.

Eating the breakfast brought by the waiter.

A newspaper is also attached to it.

There's still such a thing as a newspaper?

However, the ships used wooden sailboats and oil lamps.

What a strange world.

Arka flipped through it casually, mostly some things about the Blood Gold Alliance.

It doesn't have much to do with Arka at all.

He had just come to the outside world, and he didn't even know what a large part of the information was about.

"The great pirates are praying for the dead, and they are cruising the seas with their team."

Great pirates? It is also specially published in the newspaper to warn others.

How strong this pirate is.

Arka shook his head, put the newspaper away on the table, picked up the top hat hanging from the door, and walked out.

Come to the streets.

Just one night later, in addition to the place at the gate of the city, there was a wanted notice and a barricade was set up.

There were no patrols on the road, and it was back to its usual state.

It seems that he really did not expose.

Of course, we can't let our guard down.

Thinking of this, Arka couldn't help but touch the fine stubble on his upper lip.

He lifted his top hat and walked towards the place he had seen yesterday.

Bypass a few streets.

I came to a street where there were slightly fewer luxury stores and more of a street related to daily necessities.

It should be mostly populated by locals living in the city.

Straight to a small courtyard of a villa near the city wall.

Pedestrians around it become a little sparse as soon as they get here.

It seems that everyone is willing to go around and don't want to go through this.

Arka looked at the villa in front of him.

It has three floors and is made of beige stones, and there are small decorative sculptures on the walls and roof.

Transparent windows sit neatly on the walls, but the curtains have long been drawn inside.

A small courtyard encloses the villa.

It looks very beautiful.

If not, no one knows that this villa has a haunted legend.

At this time, a notice was posted next to the outer gate.

It is written that the villa is rented at a low price.

I noticed it when I was passing by here yesterday.

He looked at it and walked in the direction of the address.

It's less than 100 meters from here.

Also 1 villa courtyard.

Arka went over and pulled the iron door, shaking it lightly twice.

The door locks struck each other with a crisp sound.

Soon.

A woman dressed in housewear walked out.

Looking at Arka next to the iron gate, he walked over with a little doubt.

"Sir, is there anything you can do?"

Arka straightened her top hat and nodded slightly.

Then he pointed to the villa not far away.

"Is that villa yours, please? , I want to rent for a month. ”

Looking at the villa that Arka was referring to, the woman's face visibly stiffened to the naked eye.

He opened his mouth and pondered his words.

"Hmm...... This gentleman, I wonder if you know the situation of that villa? It's ......"

Alka, smiling, interrupted the woman by tapping the floor with the staff of civilization in his hand.

"Don't worry, ma'am, of course I've understood, I just want to experience it."

As he spoke, he pulled out the handkerchief in his left breast pocket, unfolded it, and shook it in front of the young woman.

Then, with a slight wave, a rose appeared in his hand.

Place it on the head of the staff of civilization, and when you let go of it, the flower will seem to grow on it.

Arka stretched out the staff of civilization.

The series of simple and quick performances just now made the woman slightly warm and couldn't help but reach out and touch the rose.

Then the roses scattered and turned into petals that were obviously redundant, and drifted towards her body in the wind.

There is also a slight fragrance.

Only then did Arka smile and say, "As you can see, I'm a magician, and I want to experience it in that villa, which may give me a different inspiration." ”

"You're a gentleman, but your performance is really good, and if you have the chance, please invite me."

"Of course, it's a beautiful city, and I'm planning to do a magic show here in a while."

Arka smiled and talked to the woman for a while.

For the price of two silver snakes, this haunted villa was rented for a month.

Maybe it's because of Arka's performance just now, and the slightly identifiable talk and clothes.

Or maybe it's a haunted villa that's really hard to rent.

The woman was relieved to waive his deposit.

After simply signing a deed.

She handed the key to Alka.

And let Arka go alone, except for a little dust, everything else inside is good and can be used normally.

It seems that the villa did leave a big shadow on this woman.

She didn't even want to go over.

It didn't take long.

Arka took the key to the door of the villa.

Unlocked the outside door, pushed the door and walked in.

The few passers-by around saw Alka's movements and stared at him as if they were ghosts, and they all quickened their pace to flee.

Looking at Alka's eyes was so pitiful.

Residents not far away also saw that the haunted villa had new tenants.

"How long can he hold out?"

"One night, I don't think one night at most, he doesn't look like a daring man."

"What about you, how long do you think he can hold out? After all, he came to you to rent it. ”

"I think this gentleman is very good, he is still a magician, maybe he can hold on to it normally."

The woman who spoke was the one who had rented the villa to Arka.

Next to her are the neighbors around her.

For a man who had the courage to enter the haunted villa, they showed the gossip they deserved.

And they have placed bets on how long Alka can last in it.

At this time.

With a hint of trepidation, Arka inserted the key into the crack in the door, and then opened the door.

Since the curtains inside the house were drawn, no one had come in the house for a while.

A faint cloud of dust wafted out.

Lift the lantern hanging from the edge of the door, twist the hub below, and light the lantern.

Picked up the lantern and walked in.

The floor is also covered with a thin layer of dust.

First, pull all the curtains open by the window to let the sunlight in.

After a while, the whole house warmed up.

When you enter, you will find the living room and the dining room, which is separated from the living room.

The dΓ©cor is very simple and warm.

Except for a faint layer of dust attached to it, it seems to have nothing to do with a haunted house.

Arka took a tour of the villa.

Pull all the curtains open.

Then she picked up the cleaning tools that the woman had prepared for her and began to sweep away some of the dust.

By the way, take a more detailed look at the whole villa.

See where that treasure is hidden.

At the same time, it is also the process of obtaining information.
