The butler's words made Arnold's expression change immediately.With a gloomy face, he looked at the housekeeper whose face was full of fear, barely suppressed his anger, and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on? Why didn't Ophelia disappear?"

Hearing Arnold's question, the butler's body stopped trembling immediately, pointed to a maid standing aside with low eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "It's like this, when she was cleaning the backyard, she found Miss's The companion beast fell into a coma and was lying under the tree, and the lady was completely invisible..." Sensing Arnold's increasingly fierce gaze, the butler swallowed involuntarily, and replied more respectfully: "We just found For a long time, I didn't see any trace of Miss."

At this point, Arnold's face was completely black.His sharp gaze swept across the faces of the housekeeper and the servants, and everyone lowered their heads involuntarily, before slowly asking: "Among you, who was the last one to see Ophelia?" ? Where did you see her appear?"

"Yes, it's me." Another maid raised her hand tremblingly, and answered very cautiously.She pursed her lips, looked at Arnold uneasily, then quickly lowered her head, and said in a low voice: "I was cleaning in the corridor, and I saw the lady playing there..." She tried to recall, not sure Said: "At that time, it was around four o'clock in the afternoon, right?"

It's four o'clock in the afternoon...

Arnold raised his hand and looked at his watch: It is still less than seven o'clock, that is to say, it has not been more than three hours since Ophelia disappeared.In addition, although her companion beast is still in a coma, but there is no danger of life, this also proves that Ophelia is still in safety.

Seeing this, Arnold made a decisive decision and immediately ordered: "Now, everyone, search the whole house up and down!"

He stared at all the servants with a headache, all the birds and beasts moved away, and scattered to various places to find traces of Ophelia. He stood in the corridor and stared downstairs with unfocused eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.After a while, he woke up suddenly, sighed, and walked to Auston's room.

Standing aside, Lu Xiujin, who had witnessed everything, couldn't help poking Augustine with his elbow, lowered his voice, and whispered to him, "Tell me, does this guy's wish be to find himself sister or something?"

Augustine was obviously not used to Lu Xiujin talking in his ear, almost sticking to his whole body.He frowned, pushed Lu Xiujin subconsciously, and then asked with a strange face: "Why are you speaking so quietly? Even if you shout here, they won't hear you." Clearing his throat, he answered Lu Xiujin's question seriously: "I think it's probably it."

After getting an affirmative answer, Lu Xiujin also nodded vigorously.But in the next second, he began to worry again: "But where did his sister go?"

Augustine shook his head, and before he could answer Lu Xiujin's doubts, he saw Arnold who was walking in front stopped in front of a certain room.Arnold, who was full of anxiety, didn't even bother to knock on the door. He pushed the door open and went in, shouting, "Auston?"

The room did not have the strong smell of alcohol as Lu Xiujin imagined, only a faint smell spread in the room.This sweet smell obviously relaxed Arnold's face a lot. He walked to the bed and tried to shout again: "Auston?"

This time, Alston finally responded.He opened his eyes in a daze, sighed helplessly after seeing it was Arnold, fumbled to turn on the light and sat up.His upper body was full, and his hair was a little messy, as if he had just woken up.He yawned, shifted his gaze to Arnold's face, and asked suspiciously, "What's the matter? Come to me at this time?"

Arnold looked at Auston with a serious face and replied, "Ophelia is missing."

Alston, who was still a little drowsy and drowsy, woke up immediately after hearing these words.He immediately got out of bed, put on his jacket in twos and twos, and then put on the long white long coat with gorgeous and complicated design hanging on the side. When Arnold took the initiative to help himself fasten the straps at the back, he quickly He took Arnold's hand and walked out the door vigorously, saying, "You want to go to the basement, right? Then go quickly."

On the way to the basement, neither Arnold nor Auston said anything.They walked forward with their heads buried, while Lu Xiujin was puzzled behind: "They... are they hiding some secret weapon in the basement?"

"It should be something like a magic circle." Augustine put himself in his shoes and thought about it, before giving an uncertain answer.After he finished speaking, he asked Lu Xiujin again: "Speaking of which, how long does it usually take to stay in a world?"

Facing Augustine's sudden question, Lu Xiujin seemed a little dazed.He replied blankly: "I'm not sure about this..." After seeing Augustine's frown, Lu Xiujin laughed again, and said a little embarrassedly: "Actually, you are the first time I have been there. In a world, something happened before it was finished, so..."

Augustine nodded knowingly.He raised his eyebrows, thinking of Lu Xiujin's bewildered behavior when we first met, he couldn't help a smile on his face, looked at Lu Xiujin and said, "So I'm a newcomer, no wonder I was so stupid at the beginning, I just came to ask me what my wish is." What."

Lu Xiujin protested dissatisfied: "How stupid!"

"Everywhere."

Although it was hurting Lu Xiujing, Augustine seemed to be in a surprisingly good mood.He glanced at the angry Lu Xiujin behind, brushed his short hair with a smile, and pulled him directly to follow the footsteps of Auston and Arnold in front: "Okay, hurry up and follow."

The road leading to the basement was unusually long, and Arnold and Auston hadn't reached it after walking for more than ten minutes.They walked through one corridor after another, opened one door after another, and still had no intention of stopping.

As they went deeper underground, Arnold's face became more serious, and even Auston put away the smile he always had on his face.

Finally, Arnold and Auston finally stopped after they passed through an ornate and heavy gate again.

"Is this here?" Lu Xiujin curiously ran to Arnold's side and stood up straight, looked up at the door with intricate patterns engraved in front of him, resisted the desire to push the door, and waited for Arnold to push the door open, just thinking about it first. One ran in, but Augustine grabbed him by the collar. "Don't rush in." Augustine said with a dignified expression, but also with some helplessness: "I can feel that there is some extremely lethal mechanism inside, and it's too dangerous to run in rashly."

"Okay." Lu Xiujin replied reluctantly. He shrank his neck and retreated from the door obediently. He watched Arnold slowly enter the room. The tracker that Qi Qi wanted was pasted on his shoulder, and then he pulled Augustine, gave him a smug smile, and led him back to the space in a flash.

In the space, it was empty, and Qi Qi was completely invisible.Lu Xiujin, who has long been accustomed to Qiqi's practice of coming and going without a trace, didn't even bother to look for Qiqi's figure in the space anymore. He pulled Augustine straight to the operating table, opened the operating table smoothly and locked the position of the tracker, Arnold and the figure immediately appeared on the big screen in front of the console.

Arnold on the screen still had a serious face.Auston stepped forward, squeezed his hand, and asked softly with some worry: "Can you really bear it?"

"No problem." Compared with Auston's worries, Arnold seemed much calmer.He smiled slightly at Oston, and his originally solemn face softened a lot in an instant, even a soft smile hung on the corners of his brows and eyes.He squeezed Oston's hand hard with his backhand, and comforted him: "It's okay, I might not need it once a year."

Even with Arnold's comfort, Auston's worries did not decrease at all, but intensified.But he still sighed, let go of Arnold's hand, and muttered in a low voice: "Forget it, for Ophelia, you can do whatever you want."

Facing Auston's coquetry, which was half jealous and half complaining, Arnold just touched his head amusedly, and while stepping back, he said casually: "It's okay for you." As soon as he finished speaking, his face changed The son became a lot more serious, stared at Auston, and said, "Come on."

Oston also became more serious immediately. He summoned his companion beast, whispered a few incantations that Lu Xiujin could not understand, and then directly attacked Arnold.

Seeing this, Lu Xiujin in front of the console couldn't help but gasped in shock.Augustine, who was standing next to him, calmed down a lot. He stared motionlessly at the movement of Riuston on the console, and a smile of unknown meaning gradually appeared on his face.

It was at that moment that Arnold's companion beast, which had been missing before, suddenly jumped out.It opened a huge barrier in front of Arnold, taking all of Auston's attacks.However, even so, the violent energy still spread to Arnold behind him. His face was like gold paper, and he staggered back a few steps while clutching his chest. on the ground.

The sudden change startled Lu Xiujin. Before he could react to confirm Arnold's safety, he immediately heard Qiqi's voice coming from behind him.

"The task is here. The role you need to play this time is Arnold's childhood sweetheart, Auston."
