Chapter 173: Reflection (2 updates)

I saw that the bedroom door was ajar, and a dim light came from inside. It was obvious that the room should be lit.

Walter shouted twice more, only to hear Mrs. Melanie's voice coming from the bedroom: "Come in, don't stand in the yard, the lights are not on, watch your steps." Her voice was very loud. Hoarse, as if crying.

Wang Xuanyuan, Walter and Patrick looked at their feet and carefully passed through the living room. After opening the door, they saw the situation in the bedroom. There was a circle of candles burning in the bedroom, and a lot of wax oil was dripping on the ground. Mr. Melanie was lying in the middle. He was covered with a white blanket. It could be clearly seen that his whole body was already skinny, his face and cheeks were sunken, and his eyes were tightly closed.

Mrs. Melanie was kneeling next to her, covering her face. It seemed that she had been crying for a long time.

Looking at this situation, Wang Xuanyuan knew without asking carefully that Mr. Melanie might not be able to hold on for long.

After entering the door, Walter stepped into the circle of candles, half-knelt on the ground with one leg, and said to Mrs. Melanie: "Madam, please forgive me." She almost cried again after hearing this.

Wang Xuanyuan and Patrick also comforted her a few words respectively, and then the three of them asked some questions about the funeral. Mrs. Melanie said that she had almost prepared everything.

After a few minutes of silence, Walter said: "Madam, we are here to tell you what we have discovered so far. We feel that something is brewing in the village."

When Mrs. Melanie heard this, she looked up and said, "Oh, what's brewing? Why didn't I notice?"

Walter said awkwardly: "Maybe you have too many things to worry about these days. It's like this, we just witnessed a rally." Walter pointed at Wang Xuanyuan and himself and then said: "We found out A group of people in black robes are gathering. I don’t know what they are doing together. They look very mysterious. People in black robes, madam, do you know?"

Mrs. Melanie shook her head and said, "I've never seen the men in black robes. What are they gathering for? Please tell me in detail."

Walter told her about it, and she was a little surprised after hearing it, and repeatedly said that there is such a thing?

Walter showed the book box to her, and she read it carefully and said that she could not understand the language on it, but by analyzing the pictures on it, she basically agreed with Walter.

Wang Xuanyuan said: "Madam, since you have believed what we said and know that we are not bad people or descendants of wizards, please return the Sheriff to us and let us go. We don't want to get involved in the affairs of the village. Come on, thank you."

Mrs. Melanie said with an apologetic look: "I'm sorry, I want to return the Sheriff to you now, but it's not possible."

After Wang Xuanyuan heard this, he said anxiously: "It's impossible? What does this mean?"

Mrs. Melanie said: "I went out a while ago, but when I came back I found that the police chief was no longer here with me."

Wang Xuanyuan said anxiously: "What do you mean he's not here? Someone picked him up, or did he run away on his own?"

Mrs. Melanie shook her head and said, "I don't know that. I only know that he is not in my house now. Even if you want me to return it, I can't find it."

After Wang Xuanyuan heard this, his heart skipped a beat. James Wen was arrested, and the police chief didn't know where he was. His friends are now in this complicated situation, and conflicts may break out in this village at any time. Come, of course, not necessarily against them, but it's best to get out of here as soon as possible.

Wang Xuanyuan was so excited that he grabbed Mrs. Melanie's hand and said, "Madam, where do you think he could go? Or who captured him again?"

She said: "After analyzing the situation just now, you should also be able to imagine that the Sheriff must be cursed in his current state, and who is he most useful to now?"

Walter said: "Wizards must be useful to wizards. The Sheriff must have been captured by wizards."

While they were still talking, Mr. Melanie, who was lying on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up straight from the ground. He stared at Mrs. Melanie with his eyes. This sudden The move startled her.

Then Mr. Melanie turned to look at Wang Xuanyuan, and the expression on his face gradually became vivid. He opened his mouth and didn't know what he wanted to say, but he just couldn't. Then he grabbed Wang Xuanyuan's ankle and said, He clucked his mouth vigorously, and finally pointed in the direction of the door.

When she saw this situation, Mrs. Melanie was frightened at first, and then she said as if she suddenly realized: "Old man, is there anything else you are worried about? Just tell me and I will help you finish it. "

Walter pulled Wang Xuanyuan and Patrick into the living room and said to them solemnly: "Xuanyuan, Mr. Melanie may not have much time left. He has regained his strength now."
