The fast-traveling girl has no feelings for her

Chapter 295 The Blood-sucking Duchess (Fifteen) (Second)
In the corridor outside Lin Shu's room door.

The old Marquis and his wife, who had been standing here, looked up and saw the solemn look on their daughter's face.

They also realized that something seemed wrong.

The Marquise couldn't help but asked curiously, "What did you do in the room just now? Why did you burn those sheets? Or did you burn them in the house?"

Out of caution, Lin Shu stepped back one meter away from the two of them before replying, "This matter is a bit complicated. I haven't fully figured it out yet."

"When I woke up this morning, I found unknown blood on my bed and at the corner of my mouth, and Lili, who was called into the room by me, also saw this scene. I think she might have been a little frightened. After that, She also found a dead rabbit under my bed. So far I'm thinking it might be a deliberate prank..."

When Lin Shu said this, the maid Lili, who was standing behind the Marquis and his wife, quickly raised her eyes to look at Lin Shu, and then quickly lowered her head.

Based on the scene she saw after entering the house, she felt that Miss Lin Shu was not panicked at all, but was very calm.

Just imagine, if anyone wakes up and suddenly finds blood on his body, shouldn't he be frightened, jumping and screaming, afraid and panicking?

How could it be possible to act like a normal person?

Lili, the maid who only uses her own cognition and vision to look at the world from her own standpoint, firmly believes that Miss Lin Shu is lying at this time.

The rabbit under the bed should have had its neck bitten off by Miss Lin Shu herself, and it was the food she used to suck blood.

It is very likely that she lost her mind due to the stimulation of blood while eating. After sucking the blood, she threw the rabbit under the bed, and then lay directly on the bed to sleep. In this way, she forgot to deal with the aftermath, so that she was The truth of the matter was revealed this morning.

That's right, the truth of the matter must be like this!

The maid Lili, who was caught in her own imagination, didn't hear that Lin Shu was still telling the Marquis that what happened this time might not be an accident, but that someone deliberately caused a disaster. On the dead rabbit, It might even carry something deadly dirty.

Of course, if Lin Shu directly said that she suspected that the rabbit had been infected with Yersinia pestis, the old couple would most likely suspect that something was wrong with their daughter.

Right now, when the old couple heard Lin Shu say that someone might be trying to harm the Dollyland family, they immediately became nervous.

Just listen to Lin Shu continue to say, "In the current situation, it is best for me and you to live separately. Don't let anyone in my room again."

"I remember that there was a two-story independent building behind our manor. I would move there to live alone. And I would also need some vinegar, wine, and various bottles and cans. When the time comes, I will write a list and list it..."

Lin Shu explained her arrangements in an orderly manner.

After looking at each other for a while, the Marquis and his wife finally nodded and agreed to their daughter's request.

After all, if there is really no serious matter, the daughter will not handle it so carefully.

"By the way, starting today, our family will no longer receive any guests from the capital. It is no longer safe there. Everyone who comes out of there, our family must avoid contact with them. Not only us, but also the servants in the manor, along with The same applies to the tenant farmers in the nearby lands."

After hearing this, the old Marquis frowned and asked, "Is it necessary to be so cautious? What are the dirty things you are talking about? Is it related to the Black Death that has been prevalent in the capital recently?"

This old marquis occupies a high position in the Manor Empire and has many noble friends in the capital of the empire.

He is always well-informed about major events in the city.

It was for this reason that the old Marquis had learned from letters sent to him by his friends that a terrible disease was attacking the country.

However, although doctors say it is a disease, many people think it is some kind of evil force such as black magic at work, or even a vampire family going out for activities.

And these people also believe that once the devil is active, the gods will send messengers to save mankind.

Right now, his daughter's attitude towards this emergency made him think of the letter his friend wrote to him.

The other party wrote in the letter, "Those people who contracted the Black Death are like swarms of dead flies, piled up in a mess. Sometimes they lie on the streets and alleys while walking, lying on the ground. By the side of the smelly ditch, or by the river flowing through the city..."

Even if the old marquis just imagined such a terrible scene, he would feel terrified.

But what surprised him even more was that his daughter nodded after he asked the question, and said cautiously, "I hope that rabbit has nothing to do with the Black Death."

In fact, Lin Shu really thought so in her heart.

Once that rabbit really has a problem, she and the family will probably end up together.

In this era when sanitation conditions and medical systems were not advanced enough, the Black Death was mostly spread by rats and fleas.

But the Black Death is not exactly the same as the plague.

Plague actually comes from Yersinia pestis, which can cause a total of three diseases.

The first is bubonic plague, which invades a person's lymph nodes and causes swelling of the lymph nodes.

The fatality rate is between three and six out of ten.

The second type is septicemic plague, which causes subcutaneous bleeding and gangrene. The blackened parts are mainly in the nose, fingers and toes.

The third is pneumonic plague, which can be transmitted through droplets.

Patients will have fever, cough, vomiting blood, and then respiratory failure or even direct shock, and their skin will turn black and purple after death.

The mortality rate of the latter two diseases has reached more than 90.00%, which can be said to be extremely terrible diseases.

If the rabbit under her bed had been soaked in liquid containing Yersinia pestis, or had been with people who died of the Black Death for a long time, then what was on her body and in this room at this moment There are germs everywhere.

But before she actually got sick, these things were just Lin Shu's conjectures.

At Lin Shu's request, the Marquis and his wife quickly arranged for her, sent her to live in the small room at the back of the manor, and sent someone to buy the corresponding things for her according to the list of items she made.

And Lin Shu did not forget the maid Lili who also touched her bed sheets and saw the rabbit, and asked the Marquis to isolate this maid for [-] days.

And this maid who was unwilling to be sent to quarantine secretly spread the news that she discovered that Dollyland Lin Shu was sucking blood while others were delivering her meals through the small wooden window.

As the saying goes, good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.

Compared with the name of Dollyland Lin Shu, the name of Duchess Edward is more famous and easy to spread.

Therefore, it didn't take long for a secret rumor about Duchess Edward's blood-sucking to spread in Linye Province.
