"Ahem."

The Lavarona knight, who was in charge of escorting them here, stopped outside the courtyard gate.

With a solemn look on his face, he gestured to the four of them: "This is the former residence of Werther, after the death of Viscount Werther, this place has been set up as a forbidden place by the lord, and no one is allowed to enter or leave, please take care of yourself, I am in charge of guarding here." ”

He was clearly reluctant to enter the house, as if he was scrupling about something.

Glancing at the huge claw marks on the stone pillar of the gate, Chen Mo nodded and didn't say anything.

Under the flickering firelight, the four of them walked through the vast garden in the dark.

After experiencing the Doomsday Reward Contest in the Shadow Shard World, Chen Mo's psychological quality has obviously improved, and he has always maintained his composure along the way, taking Tiantian, Babbling, and the Apocalypse into the former residence of the dead under the cover of night.

The small white building looks a little creepy at night.

Even if it is not set as a forbidden place, with the death of Witt and Nerina, the people of the town, afraid of the legend of the revenge of the revenants, no longer dare to approach this place.

The broken wooden door, apparently once violently vandalized.

Squeak.

The friction sound of Chen Mo opening the wooden door was so clear in this empty room.

After entering the hall.

Although the ground has been covered with a thick layer of dust, the four of them can still feel the magnificence of this place, faintly revealing the luxurious atmosphere of drunken gold.

"Poor flowers, they're all dead."

He sighed.

"Boss, there's a wine cellar here, and there's a lot of wine in it!"

Chen Mo glanced at it slightly, but unfortunately he was not a drinker, if the upside-down monk came here, he would definitely not get drunk.

"It seems that Viscount Witte is very fond of wine."

After taking a turn in the wine cellar, Chen Mo noticed the huge oil paintings hanging in the hall, and the frames of each oil painting were inlaid with gold edges, which could be described as extremely luxurious.

The content of these oil paintings depicts a well-behaved and lovely little girl with a beautiful and happy life.

From birth to the age of six, oil paintings hung all over the walls.

Among them are a smile before a milk bath, a calm afternoon nap under the gramophone, a prayer before a hearty dinner, a wish under a birthday cake candle......

"It seems that this is Linda, so many oil paintings, her father really loves her."

Chen Mo sighed and said.

In this kind of rural aristocratic life, oil painting is equivalent to Chen Mo's WeChat circle of friends who did not travel through the previous world, and experienced oil painters often only serve a few fixed customers.

"Not necessarily."

It turned out to be an uncle with a cigar cigarette in the corner of his mouth and a different opinion.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, the uncle took off the cigar cigarette from the corner of his mouth and puffed out two columns of smoke through his nostrils, revealing the color of memory, which seemed to be a little sad.

"I couldn't understand it before, but as my life experience became richer and richer, I have gradually been able to understand that some people don't live for themselves, and the more they lack something, the more they insist on showing this aspect to everyone to make up for their inferiority...... How to put it, the people who buy luxury goods, in addition to the people who really need it, there are also those who really lack it. ”

"You mean to say that this is something that Werther deliberately showed?"

Although the Apocalypse did not respond positively to Chen Mo's words, it could be regarded as acquiescence.

Tian Tian couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"Uncle, you're too dark."

Next.

The crowd came to the second floor.

After a few more rooms, the four of them stopped in the apothecary for a while.

"How can the apothecary be so close to the bedroom on the second floor?"

Chen Mo was puzzled and said: "Even if Linda's mother still insists on making potions after marriage and treating external patients, she should also set up the pharmacy room on the first floor, otherwise will the patient have to go up to the second floor with her to see a doctor?" ”

When others heard this, they also felt that there was some truth.

Zhan Hao frowned and said, "Unless, is she here to treat her family?" ”

After a little search in the pharmacy, the next few people found a large vat of mixed magic elixir in the cabinet, and when the lid of the bucket was opened, it exuded a faint fragrance.

It was also the only valuable item that the group found here.

Tip: Sleeping pills.

Quality: White.

Conditions of use: None.

Item Attributes: Can quickly put people into a deep sleep.

Item description: This large bottle of sleeping potion is enough to put down ten elephants, or to mix dozens of daily sleeping pills.

"Wow!"

Tian Tian was pleasantly surprised: "There are at least dozens of sleeping pills here, we have made a fortune, and it is just right to match my gentle township!" ”

Different from Tian Tian's excitement after discovering the sleeping potion, Chen Mo's eyes revealed a deeper incomprehension.

"Strawberry?"

The strawberry-scented aroma of the sleeping potion surprised him a little.

Baron Witt obviously didn't have insomnia, what did Nerina do with so many sleeping potions, could it be that she herself had symptoms of insomnia?

"This cross of white quality!"

Cue: the Cross of Light.

Quality: White.

Conditions of use: None.

Item Attributes: Deal 125 damage to evil creatures at once.

Item description: This is a cross that has been blessed with light.

"The white quality exorcism props that specialize in evil attributes, if you can't use them, you can exchange them for some points, so let's put them in the public space first."

Chen Mo didn't think much about it, but his big sweet eyes flickered, as if he had thought of something.

"Isn't this that Rango's gift to Linda's mother?"

Chen Mo and Zhan rolled their eyes, although it was not impossible to think about it carefully, but this had nothing to do with a few people.

Then the group went to Linda's room.

Compared to the other rooms, it is surprisingly tidy.

All the furniture is neatly placed, curtains, tablecloths, sofas, three months later, it is still extremely neat, as if someone has carefully cleaned and sorted it every day.

Only the bed is slightly wrinkled.

Chen Mo frowned slightly.

He was obsessive-compulsive, and he wanted to smooth out the folds on the bed, but found that this folded area seemed to be because people often kept sleeping in one position, pressing down the sheets and mattresses, which were difficult to smooth out, and then became the only blemish in the room.

There was confusion in his eyes, but Chen Mo's attention was quickly attracted by the music on the gramophone.

"Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle ......"

It was Zhan Hao who turned on the gramophone, and there were nursery rhyme songs recorded on the record.

This is probably the reason why the townspeople say that Linda spends her days in the beautiful music of the gramophone, but in this empty and silent night environment, it is really difficult for the four of them to feel the warmth.

"Hey."

Chen Mo sat on the sofa and looked at Tiantian, Zhan Hao, and the Apocalypse.

They didn't find a clear clue.

"It seems that tomorrow we are going to go to the Xuefeng Mountain Sanatorium, saying that it is a sanatorium, but it is actually an orphanage, a nursing home, and a complex of autistic patients, and the last place where Linda disappeared was there."

said.

Chen Mo frowned and said, "However, although we didn't get a clear clue this time, I always felt a little weird, maybe it was affected by my uncle's pessimism...... I always feel like everything here has been carefully arranged and shown to us. ”

Sweet and dumb looked at each other, and the Apocalypse took another hard puff on his cigar.

"Let's go."

At the end of the investigation, a large number of sleeping potions and a white quality exorcism prop were obtained, and this time it was not in vain.

But at this moment.

Chen Mo suddenly thought of something, he instinctively wanted to smooth out the folds of the sofa he had just sat on, but he was surprised to find that there were no wrinkles on the sofa at all, even the cushions were neatly arranged.

He slowly stretched out his right hand and tried to pick up the pillow.

Then he found that the cushion was sewn to the sofa, so it could always be kept in a very neat state.

"This?"

After Chen Mo stopped slightly, he suddenly thought of something.

He tried to move the sofa, only to find that it was already fixed to the floor, and he tried to pick up the stuffed animals, which were also fixed in place.

The whole room is like a window to the outside world once and for all!

……

The next day.

After receiving the news that the four members of the tour group insisted on going to the Snow Peak Mountain Sanatorium, Viscount Arizon sighed.

He met with Chen Mo and the others again.

"The sanatorium has been completely abandoned because of the attack of the snow monster, the town has sent people to rescue, but in the end there is no news, and then the Earl of Orff in the city of Rhine also sent a team of knights, but it is said that in the end only one knight escaped from the sanatorium, he went completely crazy, and kept saying things that others could not understand, and no one in the town has ever been there since."

According to the time calculation, this should be about half a month after Linda entered the Snow Peak Mountain Sanatorium.

However, due to the isolation of the sanatorium, the actual time can only be estimated by calculation.

Arissan's face was filled with awe.

"If you insist on going, you must be fully prepared, Pooh Town has already listed the Snow Peak Mountain Sanatorium and all the surrounding areas as forbidden places, and idlers and others are not allowed to approach, and my greatest help to you can only be to turn a blind eye to this."

Hearing this, Chen Mo smiled slightly.

Quietly, he took out two gold ornaments that had been brought out of the gnome's lair.

"Thank you, Viscount, for your concern."

Arissan's eyebrows rose slightly, revealing a surprised smile.

He also quietly put away the two gold ornaments and revealed a new piece of information.

"Snow Peak Mountain is not close to the town, I heard that a large demon hunting team has been organized on the side of Rhine City, and it is going to carry out a large-scale sweep against the monsters that are increasingly harassing the city around it, so when you go down the mountain, you can go to Rhine City to rest, and ...... Ahem, Reverend Rango, it should be in St. Randy's Cathedral in Rhine City. ”

Facing Viscount Arizo's meaningful hint and reminder, Chen Mo looked at him and nodded and smiled.
