Seeing off Cleves, Esther closed the door: "If there is danger, we will not go to the island?" ”

"Hmm." Klein nodded.

In the end, the three of them settled the dinner in the ship's first-class restaurant, and of course, Daniz had no choice.

However, after gradually realizing Hamel's true colors, Daniz has become desperate for the two of them to keep him under close guard.

At seven o'clock, when the group walked out of the restaurant, the ship's shaking was much smaller, and the wind outside should have eased.

Klein paused in his footsteps, then walked all the way to the entrance of the cabin, and asked the guards there who had not returned to White Onyx before walking with the two of them to Room 312.

"What's wrong?" Esther asked.

Klein shook his head and didn't reply to her.

Back in the cabin, Esther found a poker card out of nowhere, and under Klein's questioning eyes, she humbly explained the origin of the poker:

"I played two games last night while chatting with someone on the boat, and he lost to me."

With Daniz, there are exactly three people now, and they can also put together a table to fight evil. It's just that a few minutes after the first game, Esther suddenly put the cards in her hand on the table.

At the same time, Klein also put down the poker in his hand and exchanged a look with Esther.

"It's kind of weird." Esther whispered, something unusual touched her senses, making her want to go to the island to see what was going on.

"One thing suddenly comes to mind, Gelman," her tone was a little erratic, "don't you think Bansey's pronunciation...... Quite like Bincy in Giants? ”

Klein's eyes froze and he nodded, "I'll go to the bathroom." ”

Daniz, who had just been aroused, was very dazed: "Hey, don't you two have too bad hands and don't want to play, right?" Uncle Daniz's luck is good! Don't run! ”

"Are you a little too proud? Uncle Daniz......" Esther looked at him with a smile.

Daniz immediately shut his mouth and shrank back in his easy chair.

When Klein came out of the bathroom, he gave Esther a look, and Esther understood, and immediately got up and went back to the room, bringing her satchel with her. When she came out again, she had a silver half-face mask on her face, clinging to her skin.

Klein buttoned up his double-row gown, removed his half-height silk top hat from the coat rack by the door, and turned to Danitz with a blank face:

"You're free."

"Huh?" Daniz didn't realize what was going on, and casually threw the poker in his hand on the table, "Really don't play?" ”

Then he saw that Hamel was also following Gelman, and was about to leave the room, when Daniz suddenly understood, and cried out in surprise:

"You're going to save the captain and the ordinary people!? Didn't he say it was dangerous out there? ”

Esther blinked innocently: "It's all Gelman who has the final say, and I'm only responsible for execution." ”

Klein pressed his top hat tightly on his head, "They've worked with me and kept it a secret. He invited me to eat fish-man flesh and helped me compensate for the loss of the 'White Shark'. ”

Daniz subconsciously spoke: "How much is the compensation?" ”

"A few souls."

Esther smiled and followed behind Crane, neither of whom bothered to pay attention to the shocked Danitz in the room.

I don't know what Daniz was thinking as he stared at the window, but after a few seconds of silence, he suddenly jumped up from his easy chair and followed behind the two.

Esther looked at him curiously, "Do you think it's safer to follow us?" ”

Daniz gritted his teeth: "How is that possible! I'm 'Flame' Daniz, how could I back down because of such a trivial matter! Of course, we have to rise to the challenge! ”

Esther and Klein are not a word of faith.

——

In the cabin of the White Onyx before, people felt that the fierce wind had eased a lot, but it was still carrying the chill on the three people who disembarked the ship, which gave Daniz, who was already terrified, goosebumps.

Bansey is not comparable to cities like Beckland or Tingen, where the streets are lined with primitive hand-made candle lamps, lined up several metres apart and covered with glass shades.

Because of the sudden change in the weather, no one came to light them up tonight.

The fog crept into the darkness of the night, and even the crimson moonlight could only shine in a little, and all the doors and windows of the houses were closed without the slightest light coming through.

There was no sound on the street except for the footsteps of the three people and the sound of the wind, and the houses looked quite intact except for the fact that they were slightly old, but they seemed to have been empty for a long time, and there was only a dead silence.

Esther calmed down and gathered her spirit, swept away all the thoughts in her mind, such as "ghost hitting the wall", "ghost house", and "house horror", and held the "Logan's claw" in her hand, and released the blade to the longest.

Suddenly, her mind moved: "Gelman, your eleven o'clock direction." ”

Almost as soon as she spoke, Crane's mind saw that something was coming, and he didn't hurry, and pulled his cane out with his backhand, right in the middle of the black shadow the size of a watermelon.

With the help of the lantern in Crane's left hand, he could see the appearance of the thing, it turned out to be a head without a lower half of the body!

There is only a throat tube attached to the bottom of the head, and a stomach pouch that has been exposed to the air.

The head itself resembled a half-melted candle, covered with fine blue mold hairs, and the skin on the outside that was constantly oozing disgusting liquid hung down like a punctured water bag, hanging loosely from the edge of the bone.

But the teeth of this strange human head were so sharp that they almost matched the sharpened blades, and it seemed that they could easily tear a human arm apart.

Crane's force was so heavy that his head was obviously stunned, and before it could recover, a pure and bright light fell from the sky, turning it into a gray shadow in the scream, and quickly disappeared.

Esther frowned, and under the guidance of a certain premonition, she spoke again: "Daniz, three o'clock on the right!" ”

"Roger!" The classical revolver in Daniz's right hand flipped and hit another head flying out of the mist with precision.

There was a hole in the forehead of the same penicular mold, and a dazzling flame lit up between Daniz's clenched left fist, and he immediately flicked his arm and smashed the flame into the head that continued to pounce.

The head continued to lunge at Daniz against the fireball, and although its skin was charred, it was not hindered much.

Esther quickly stretched out her left hand and grabbed it: "It's almost!" ”

As Esther leaned forward, she quickly returned to her original position, just in time to see Daniz take a step back, her left hand recondensing into a shrunken orange fireball.

Daniz threw the flames out again, hurling them at the still-standing head, and under Daniz's control, the fireball fell straight into the blackened skull's gaping mouth.

"Boom!"

With a bang, the flames exploded from his head, and shredded flesh and blood splattered on the street.

Esther twisted her head and looked in the direction of the other side of the street.

Klein said in a deep voice, "Anything else?" ”

Esther's brow furrowed even tighter: "No, there is no movement for the time being. I always felt like there was something here that attracted me...... But dangerous, very dangerous. ”

This is a fairly clear declaration from her "spiritual intuition."

——

On the next journey to the Lime Restaurant, every now and then a head dragging a stomach bag would fly out of the mist and pounce on the three strangers who were walking outside regardless of the weather.

Esther's premonition of enemy movements was unusually accurate, often even a few seconds faster than Crane's, but to her own surprise, the targets of those head attacks were often mainly Crane and Danitz, and none of her side came close.

After Esther let go of the skull stealing attack, they became almost fixed targets, and they collapsed in Crane's Light Purification and Daniz's explosive fireballs.

"These monsters can't be local residents, can they?" Esther muttered quietly.

Daniz, who was finally relieved next to him, felt another layer of goosebumps on his body: "Not really!?" How many have we solved? How many people must be on that island......"

"Seventeen." Klein replied.

Daniz was shocked, this man was still counting the number of these heads? Is he really not worried about the current situation?

Esther whistled, "Yes, you actually counted." We shouldn't be far from Lime Restaurant? There seems to be a figure in front of ......."

Her tone suddenly froze: "Gelman, ten o'clock." ”

Crane's gaze turned, and he swung his cane again, knocking a flying head at him with bared teeth.

The human head slammed into the ground in front of the men, and a bolt of light landed on top of it, causing it to disappear cleanly.

The horse lantern in Klein's hand illuminated the other side of the fog, and there were also people on the opposite side carrying the horse lantern, and the vague light illuminated the faces of several people who were nervous or panicked, but soon, Donna and Denton shouted in surprise at the same time:

"Uncle Sparrow! Sister Hamel! ”

Klein handed the lantern to Esther and calmly said to the others, "Go to the telegraph office first." ”

He glanced at the people present and asked, "What about the Dimerdo family?" ”

Mr. Blanche answered Klein's question: "They're still in the cafeteria. ”

With anxiety and fear on his face, he pointed to the spot where the head just fell just now: "What was that thing just now?" ”

Klein didn't answer, but walked directly past Donna's family to the door of the lime restaurant, and Esther quickly shoved the lantern she was carrying into Danitz's hand and nodded at Mr. Blanche:

"We've got to get out of here, you've seen that monster too, there's something very wrong with this island."

Then she hurried after Crane, not allowing him to step into the more eccentric restaurant alone.

Klein knocked on the door twice.

After receiving no response, he decisively lifted his leg and kicked the door of the Lime Restaurant open with a hard kick.

The boss, with a round face and a multi-layered chin, was dressed in a neat tuxedo and Sven's glasses on the bridge of his nose, and turned calmly towards the door.

The doors of the rooms on the first floor opened, and the expressionless gentlemen and ladies stood in the doorway, silently watching the two intruders.

"What do you want to do?"

The restaurateur's voice didn't fluctuate, except that he was holding a revolver in his hand.

Klein's voice was also emotionless, as cold as the barrel of a gun: "What about the Dimerdo family? ”

The restaurateur's gaze shifted in Esther's direction, and Esther's eyes narrowed demonstratively, and a faint light flashed from under hers.

The boss's mouth opened and closed, his throat rolled strangely, and when he opened his mouth again, his voice seemed to become a little softer:

"There's also a table, the Outlander, upstairs."

Esther whispered to Klein, "You go up to them, and I'll stay here?" ”

After she took Klein away, she turned on the perception of mixed psychic vision and carefully observed the fate of these people.

Esther subconsciously pursed her lips and licked her upper lip.

But before Crane could agree or dismiss her proposal, the people in the first-floor guest room who had decided to stay overnight took two steps back and slammed the door shut.

The boss seemed to be more nervous than the two: "I'll immediately find someone and call them." ”

Crane still drew the gun at his waist in his hand, although the other party seemed to show fear for some reason, he would not let his guard down.

Esther, however, was a little disappointed.

Why did this boss coax? Shouldn't I be separated from Klein at this time, and is it normal to break them one by one?
