Chapter 295: Under the Fog (4)
Susan still had an indescribable feeling about Perry's eyes at the butler. This time, she intends to reconfirm. "In any case, if you want to think clearly, you can't think seriously after something has happened, right?"
If she wanders around the bazaar in the City of Miracles, Susan will buy some ingredients. Back then, it was after she, Glori, and Dylan followed Mr. Mayne back to the City of Miracles. At the time, she was talking to a fruit vendor. The peddler looked at her with uncomfortable eyes, and the peddler, who wanted to sell the goods and get more out of Susan's pocket, naturally hesitated to pack the fruit. Then Susan was scrutinized again, and the sack of fruit was caught by Susan on one side and caught firmly by the vendor on the other, as if Susan would make the vendor lose something if she put away the sack of fruit. However, Susan was paid.
After thinking about it for a moment, Susan compared the "feeling of being taken away" look with Perry's state. She thought that Perry must not be reluctant to give up something, but wanted something, or rather wanted to ask for something from Susan that would benefit him.
"Mr. Butler, what the hell is he thinking?" wondered Susan. After she was stunned, Perry had already turned around, and then she was pulled by Luna's left hand.
"Mr. Butler is waiting for us?" said Luna to Susan. She shook Susan's arm again. At this time, Susan realized that not only Perry, but even Zoe was looking back.
Susan blushed. When she looked up, she saw Perry's smile. That smile, like Perry's when he broke into the restaurant, was full of courtesy to his guests. The sun, as if she had been forcibly pulled in front of her face, surprised Susanton, and even began to wonder if she was thinking too much.
However, there is one thing that Susan is sure of. Because, after all, Susan is a shooter. If an archer can't be sure of what he's seeing, how can he hit his prey with his bow and arrow? Moreover, the feeling that Perry caused was not right in Luna. At least, she hadn't seen Luna's eyes in the time she had been in contact with her to have a sinister plan.
"If Luna really wants to do something terrible, I'm afraid Luna will just save her thoughts, because Luna is strong enough to turn this place upside down. Thinking to herself, Susan told herself that Mr. Butler was indeed hiding like Mr. Betsy.
"I said, what's wrong with her?" Perry deliberately asked, noticing that Susan had taken two steps closer. For a moment, he even saw Susan talking to herself. Later, Susan also found out that she opened her mouth while thinking.
"Sir, I'll go back and find someone else to take me to the guests' rooms. Fortunately, the lady pushing the cutlery came out of the dining room to talk. Then, Perry simply cut off his thoughts and forgot what he was about to think about.
Luna, on the other hand, lifted the corners of her mouth and happily pulled Susan's right hand. At this moment, Susan was directly taken by Luna's hands and walked towards the central circular staircase.
"Mr. Butler, I can't help but go to the resting place. Luna pouted. In fact, she was consolidating what the lady had interrupted Perry's thinking.
Perry politely responds not only to Luna's questions, but also to tell Luna which rooms she can and can't go. Now, Susan and Luna know that there are some nodraws in the castle. If you climb the circular staircase all the way to the third floor, and then follow the east hallway to the end, it will be a room that no one can enter without permission. Moreover, the tower on the east side of the castle is also forbidden to break in, unless someone has specially arranged it for Mr. Betsy.
In addition to the grounding thing, Perry also said the taboo things about Mr. Betsy. He said: If someone mentions Mr. Betsy's family, then Mr. Betsy will be angry. It had been mentioned the last time, and then the servant was tied up in the courtyard, and the person who personally punished him was none other than Mr. Betsy himself, with a rattan whip and a chair on his back, for a whole day. Eventually, the servant was carried away by the Guardians.
Hearing Perry's words from the butler, Susan felt more and more that this castle made of white bricks and stone had a lot of appeal. Of course, she also learned about Mr. Betsy's cold side. Either way, there's a reason why Luna uses transfiguration magic, and Susan understands that. "So, what about finding Glori and the others?" Susan asked herself.
Letting Luna toss back and forth around her, Susan didn't stop thinking. It took a breath before she realized that Luna was afraid to look at the carvings on the walls of the stairs. These carvings that surround the staircase are even more terrifying than what you can see in the corridor on the first floor. In the carving, the overwhelming black dragon flies from the top down, and the dark clouds pressed down from the top down resemble a demon in a cloak. However, Susan couldn't see the face under the hood, because the demon had no face or body at all.
Agni, black was used in the carving. As for the refugees, they are all human.
Susan couldn't figure out why there were so many carvings and drawings of Bryson, the Supreme King of Order, in the castle. After walking around the corner of the circular staircase, you will find the corridor on the second floor of the castle. The first picture in front of her directly stopped Susan.
In Susan's eyes, the brave man in full body Kai was raising his sword and chanting in front of the god of light. Moreover, the painter who painted the image deliberately used paint to point out a starry ember of magic.
"Starlight ......" Susan's heart shuddered. It's as if this picture is a reminder that Susan has to find Glori. It was this picture that brought back the uneasiness in Susan's heart.
Obviously, what Susan saw was the same image that the first knight Owen had persuaded the god of light. That day was also the time of Bryson's defeat. Susan didn't want to worry too much about the past, and after regaining her senses, she found that she had unknowingly reached the guest room on the second floor.
This guest room is located on the south side of the west corridor on the second floor. Luckily, there were no uncomfortable drawings in the corridor on this side, just a few warm portraits. There are some, Susan guessed. She guessed that the bloated woman with a goose feather fan in the first picture of the hallway was Mr. Betsy's wife. As for the second and third paintings, they are Mr. Betsie's daughters, for they are really richly dressed, whether they are pearl-trimmed or gold and silver jewelry, they are all exquisite, and their countenance is very similar to that of Mr. Betsy.
Anyway, the conjecture was made so that she didn't think too much, and Susan would not deliberately dwell on the accuracy of the answer. Even, she didn't ask much because she was tired. After Perry opened the ring lock on the door with the key, Susan frowned at Perry's words.
"This room belongs to Miss Susan and Miss Luna. As for Miss Zoe's room, it's at the end of the corridor to the east. If you want to talk to Miss Zoe, don't forget what I said. Now, good night, ladies. ”
After Perry finished speaking, Susan and Luna stood in the doorway for a few moments before remembering that Zoe had returned to the room after going up the stairs. Neither Susan nor Luna liked this room where sunlight could not break in. Also, the lights in the hallway are dim.
Faced with the similarities with Luna, Susan is a little difficult to accept. In order to rest well and find a way to find Glori and the others, Susan had to push open the door.
"Look, it's not too bad. ”
Susan looked at the furnishings in the room. A floral curtain that has been pulled open a long time ago. As for the south-facing windowsill, it is also quite clean, and there is a pot of lilies cultivated with magic. The furnishings on the west side of the room, except for the bed in the southwest corner, are the wardrobes between the bed and the windowsill. Speaking of the east wall, there is only a wooden bench with red paint and a dresser supporting a glass mirror.
On the dresser, the rouge and perfume are all new, as if they were specially prepared for the guests. Moreover, the sources are all well-known merchants, such as Flore's fat powder shop, Gui Traveler's trading house, and so on.
Unfortunately, neither Susan nor Luna touched the powder. They are cautious. Looking at the luxurious satin curtains in the room, and then at the dressing table full of decorations, the wardrobe is really an eyesore.
"Well, the sun doesn't shine anyway, so why don't you just leave the closet here?" Luna complained. She was the first to fall on the bed. She even curled up, put her knees on her chin, and rolled back and forth, happy like a real child.
Because of Luna, Susan learned how comfortable the owner was - the plush blankets, the plush quilts, and even the cushions on the beds were soft. At this point, she also fell. It's just that before lying down, she deliberately went to the door to take a look. However, she didn't step out of the room because there was an oppressive aura in the hallway.
After closing the door, Susan is told something by Luna. Luna said, "This is where Belton's family lives...... It must have been the residence of one of his daughters, I'm pretty sure. As soon as I stepped through the door, I felt the pitifully humble aura of magic. ”
After listening to Luna's explanation, Susan endures another complaint from Luna: Luna insists that she dislikes the room's furnishings. However, Susan is quite satisfied with Luna's decision not to use magic to change any of the objects.
"How can a demon have respect for the owner of the room?" thought to Susan. In her opinion, among the people she saw on this day, except for Hugh in the garden, only Luna and Zoe were the most reassuring places in this castle.
Now, the lights outside the castle are gradually hidden. Susan sat up uneasy. Inadvertently, she pulled the curtain, only to see a scurrying figure walking towards the tower to the east.
