Chapter 14: The Chamber of Secrets (1)

Anna hurriedly interrupted Ariel's words, and she quickly explained:

"What was I thinking about at a young age! I became a security officer at the chief police station, and in order to go to work on time every day, I had to find a place to live nearby, which happened to be close to the police station in my jurisdiction. Got it?"

"Understood, then I'll clean it up for you. I'll be back at school in a moment. I came back for half a month's living expenses. ”

Ariel nodded, and then explained why she had returned.

"Okay, okay, I'll give you three silver coins, that's enough. Hurry up and help me clean up. ”

With that, Anna pulled the silver coin out of her pocket and tossed it to Ariel.

Anna didn't pack much things, mainly clothes and toiletries, as well as usual cultivation items and medicines, and the three of them packed up quickly.

Wallace was in charge of loading everything onto the steam wagon, and Anna took Ariel to Wallace's house to confess the door, and then sent her back to school after dinner.

Ariel attended St. Mary's College, which was famous throughout the Bauhinia Kingdom, and was founded by the Church of the God of Wisdom, most of which were children of nobles, but also some of the children of commoner families.

Half an hour later, the three of them arrived at Wallace's house.

The maid of the house happened to be cooking, and Wallace arranged Anna in the room on the left side of the second floor, which was next to the study.

"Wallace, there's a gathering of the Transcendents recently, are you attending?" asked Anna suddenly.

Wallace was carrying something and leading Anna into the room.

But before he could answer, Anna's face changed suddenly, and then she asked quite seriously, "What room is next door to the room?"

Wallace put the things in front of the bed, then stood up and said, "Next door is the study, but the space in the study is a little small, what's wrong? Why do you suddenly ask this, is there something wrong?"

"I could clearly feel the spirituality of the whole room converging towards the next room, and there was a hint of evil in the next room," Anna said. ”

Wallace felt a little incredible, why didn't he feel it? The pupils of his eyes glowed faintly blue, and his vision turned on.

It's really what she said, there is indeed a very small amount of spirituality converging in the study next door, but I can't feel the specific gathering location.

He said, "Can you feel the location? Why don't I take you to the study?" ”

"Okay, let's go. Anna nodded and followed him to the study.

As soon as the two entered the study, Wallace saw the spirits converging towards the bookshelves.

Anna flipped through the shelves, and suddenly pulled out a book, and suddenly the whole bookshelf split in two, parting on both sides, revealing a stone door in the middle.

Wallace slowly pushed open the stone door, and there was darkness in front of him, and fire rose from his fingertips.

With a faint light, he saw the candlesticks hanging on the wall, and after using the fingertip flames to light one candlestick after another, the whole secret room suddenly brightened.

The walls of the chamber are made of blue-gray masonry, and there are five busts hanging on the walls, the chamber has no windows, no light and no ventilation, and a bookcase and a long table in the dark room.

There are many different kinds of glass bottles on the long table, and there are many unknown feathers and plants scattered on the table.

Anna Uria suddenly crossed Wallace and walked over to the table to pick up a figurine and a book.

She flipped through the statue and the book several times, her face full of disbelief and muttering.

"This~this~ This is the same thing as our case today. ”

Wallace stepped forward to take the two items from her hand, looked at the statue carefully, and then flipped through the books.

He said to himself: "Sure enough, it is roughly the same as the item involved, but if you look at the statue alone, you can't detect it, but if you put it together with the book, you can confirm that it is indeed the same type of statue." ”

The statue Wallace now has in his hands is much more expressive than the statue in this morning's case.

This wooden statue, with a fish-headed human body, has two large, protruding dead fish eyes, a large mouth, and many whiskers sticking out of the mouth.

The body is covered with scales, and there is a tail behind it, a whisker-like dorsal fin that extends from the head to the tail, and there are webbing hands and feet between the fingers.

The book is indeed exactly the same as in the case, no! Wallace turned to the printing date, and it turned out to be March 13 two years ago, not March 13 this year.

Wallace remembered that the former landlords, Mr. and Mrs. Blakeley, had died two years earlier, and Mr. Blakely had died first, which meant that the Blakely woman had made the statue but died before it could be used.

The most important thing is that this book was printed for the 16th time on March 13 two years ago, which means that it has been published for two years.

The whole city of Lalaye, no, it should be said that quite a few people in the whole of Krentrent have already bought and tried it.

Wallace thought to himself, "Oh no, according to Anna, this is a sacrificial summoning circle, because it is a sacrificial summoning to the evil gods of the deep sea.

The evil creature summoned to the county of Hunter must have come from the Deep Diving Tribe. I don't know how many evil creatures have been lurking in the entire county of Hunter-Rent. ”

After he told Anna about his idea, Anna also agreed very much.

Wallace complained silently in his heart, the police in the kingdom of this world are too dull, it stands to reason that there are police supervision places, as well as the church and the demon hunting association to deal with evil events, this kind of thing should have been discovered a long time ago.

Li Jian shook his head and immediately stopped the divergent thoughts in his head.

Wallace then pointed to the various glass bottles on the table and said, "Anna, what are these bottles?"

Anna stood in front of the bookshelf and said without replying, "Aren't you also a wizard? By the way, how did you know my sister?"

Wallace suddenly felt a little weak, and he hurried to explain: "We Eastern wizards use different things from this one. As for how I met your sister Ariel, I was visiting relatives in the town of Kemal and happened to be passing through the southern forest, and I happened to meet Ariel in the forest. ”

Anna said: "Oh, I didn't expect the owner of this house to be a wizard apprentice, but it's a pity that his qualifications are not good, and even a second-order junior wizard can't be promoted." ”

Wallace asked, "How do you know?"

"This diary is written. Anna raised the journal in her hand as she spoke, then flipped through Blakeley's diary.

"It's time to eat! Sister, come down and eat!"

Downstairs came Ariel's loud call.

Anna put down the diary in her hand, and she also replied loudly, "Got it, this is down!"

Wallace immediately put down the experimental equipment in his hand, and the two of them left the secret room and study together, and went downstairs to eat together.

After the three of them had eaten together, the maid left to clean up the table and utensils, Wallace returned to the secret room to explore the secrets, and Anna sent Arielle to school.
