Anchor, your box lunch is here
Chapter 28 Riddle Manor
The ceremony in the collection room was still going on, but at this moment, Chao An heard footsteps, a sound coming from the depths of the corridor, very crisp, and the strange thing was that the believers didn't respond to it.
Chao An's body floated to the corridor, and he saw a candle slowly emerge from the darkness, holding the candlestick in a white hand, walking towards the collection room step by step.
When she was five steps away from Chao An, Chao An saw her face clearly. It was Kathy, but it was not a girl Kathy, but an adult version of Kathy. She was wearing a white nightdress and walked towards Chao An install.
How can Kathy come here?Did he enter the "dream" world like himself?But it's not right, even Chao'an himself only came in with consciousness, and his body was still the same as when he was a child, how could Kathy appear here in his original appearance!
Chaoan looked at Kaixi in surprise, saw her stop in front of the black door, took out a copper key from her body and inserted it into the lock hole, this is the key of the collection room, which Kaixi stole from his room last night go.
When the key was turned, there was a crisp sound, and Kathy pushed open the black door, while Bishop Roman and several believers who were performing the blood sacrifice ceremony turned a blind eye to it.
Even if Chao'an doesn't know much about the formation, he knows that such a taboo method cannot make any mistakes. Let alone Kaixi breaking in, even if Kaixi makes a sound outside the door, they will be alarmed, but now these people have no reaction at all. No, couldn't they all see Kathy?
Chaoan suddenly thought of the broken mirror in the bedroom and the gradually delayed departure time, and seemed to understand something.
If the real world is compared to the surface world, and the "dream" world is compared to the inner world, the two worlds are in the same space like nesting dolls, but they do not interfere with each other, and can only be connected in a specific way. One of the medium.
When Chaoan entered the inner world for the first time, the mirror of the inner world was broken, and the mirror of the outer world was intact, but when he came back from the inner world for the second time, the mirror of the outer world was also broken, which means that from then on, the mirror of the inner world was broken. The world has begun to affect the watch world.
At the same time, the passage of time away from it also illustrates this point.
The first time Chaoan woke up from the inner world was at [-]:[-] in the morning, the second time his body in the outer world was killed, so he woke up earlier, and the third time he saw the switch between the two worlds with his own eyes, that It was already nine o'clock in the morning, a full two hours later than the first time, which means that every time the world in the back world is switched, the table world will be one hour later, which in turn means that the time in which the back world exists is extended.
The increase in influence and the extension of the existence time all illustrate a problem, that is, the outer world and the inner world are merging, so Chaoan can see Kathy in the outer world in the inner world, and Roman Bishop who only exists in the inner world The others and Kathy, who only existed in the surface world, could not detect the existence of each other because the degree of world integration was not enough.
Sure enough, Kathy's next actions also verified Chao'an's conjecture.After Kathy entered the collection room, she didn't feel strange about the scene in front of her. Her body passed directly through the bodies of the believers and walked towards a wall. She really couldn't see Bishop Roman and others, and couldn't influence them.
So now there is only one question left, why Chao'an?Or why Angelet?What's unique about Angelet that makes him the medium of the inner and outer world?
Judging from the story Chao An knew, Angelet played an insignificant role in it. He was neither the promoter nor the victim of the tragedy. He was too young when the tragedy happened to play any role at all. It is such a character who is not qualified to be cannon fodder in other worlds, why can he enter the inner world?What secrets did Angelet hide?
Chao An sighed, always felt that there was a long way to go, so take your time.
The ceremony in the other world still needs to be carried out for a while, and there is nothing to see. Chao'an turned his attention to Kathy in the outside world. He saw her standing under a wall, staring at the things on the wall motionlessly. Ann remembered that there should be a portrait hanging there, and it was the Duchess.
Kathy came to the collection room at night just to look at a painting?
Although Kathy's expression at this time is not quite right, she can be sure that she has the ability to think, so she is not sleepwalking, so Kathy's behavior is too strange.
Kathy stared at the painting, and after a while, she stood on tiptoes and raised her hands as if to take it down.Kathy put the painting on a lower display shelf, and her fingers stroked the cheek of the person on the painting, with a smile on her face, as if thinking of something pleasant.
But this expression lasted for less than a few breaths, and the expression on Kathy's face quickly twisted. She stared at the Duchess's face with hatred, and the jealousy in her heart was like a bug, constantly gnawing at her heart.
In a trance, she seemed to see the painting on the portrait smiling at her, laughing at her overpowering, she was just a little nobleman, even if she wore expensive jewelry, she would just imitate her, don't dream, she can't be the Duchess .
Kathy was irritated, she stretched out her fingers, and the sharp nails kept scraping the Duchess's face, the portrait was scratched and broken by her, this is not over, after scratching the portrait, Kathy stretched her hand to her face.
She's going to swap her face with the Duchess so she's the Duchess...
Kathy's nails scratched the skin on her forehead. She dug the gap, and blood continued to flow down her cheeks. As if she couldn't feel the pain, Kathy tore off a small piece of skin with great effort. A blood pit was left on the ground.
Kathy put the skin on the Duchess's forehead, and then continued to pull her own face, floating three steps away from Anne, saw Kathy tearing off her face with her nails, maybe that wasn't called tearing, it should be called Pick, pick off your own skin little by little.
When the skin was peeled off, Kathy's face was covered with blood pits, and that beautiful face became a mass of blood and flesh.
Kathy put her face on the Duchess's face, and laughed heartily when she saw her work, "Look, look, I'm a Duchess, and I'll be the most honorable woman in the capital from now on..."
There was a grin on Kathy's terrifying face, revealing her white teeth. The blood pooled at her feet, forming a puddle. She smiled and gradually came to her senses, and then she suddenly felt the violent pain on her face. pain.
"what--"
Kathy let out a scream, covered her face and fell to the ground. She kept rolling on the ground, wailing, the pain of being stripped alive was enough to make people crazy, and Kathy wailed for four full hourglass hours, Then the voice gradually became weaker.
When she was about to die, Kathy opened her blood-smeared eyes, and she saw countless ghosts hovering around her, including duchesses and nobles, they tore her face, since she wanted to be glamorous, they would Let her die ugly.
People who are vain are damned embarrassed.
Kathy died, from bleeding, she wailed so loudly, but no one showed up, just like she didn't want to be found when she played a prank.
Chaoan walked up to Kathy, he didn’t hate this girl, it’s just that people have to pay for what they do, maybe it’s just a joke of yours, someone might pay their lives for it, Bai Lian has proved it in the last world at this point.
Jokes are made to make people laugh, and any joke with malicious intent is called evil.
A black energy gushed out from Kathy's body and was absorbed by Chao An. Chao An's aura strengthened again, but he still didn't gain any emotional points.
clang--
It's ten o'clock in the morning.
When the servants in the manor woke up and found that it was already dawn, they panicked for a while. They needed to make breakfast before the master got up, so they woke up before dawn, but today they overslept.
The servants were reassured that the nobles had overslept too, and they didn't have to be scolded for it.
When the judge found out that it was ten o'clock, he couldn't believe it. He is a self-disciplined person and never sleeps so late.
It's weird...
The judge, Chester and the baron gathered in the dining room, and Arthur and Bellamy brought breakfast for everyone, because the manor couldn't deliver the ingredients, and the breakfast was not as rich as before. Anyway, everyone is not in the mood to pay attention to what they eat now.
"Where's Miss Cathy? Why hasn't she come out?"
"Maybe he's still asleep."
"Bellamy, go and invite Miss Kathy down."
"Ok."
Bellamy went upstairs to Kathy's room, but she returned soon after.
"Miss Cathy is not in the room."
"Not in the room?" The judge wondered, "Did he go out?"
"Let's look for it, after all, the manor is not peaceful now." Chester suggested.
In the end, everyone decided to look for Kathy together, but they couldn't find her after searching the whole manor.
"Did Miss Kathy find a way to leave the manor?" The coachman Carter raised hope, and the scar on his cheek trembled twice when he spoke. The environment knows best.
"No, there is still one place I haven't found." Arthur said calmly.
"Where?"
"basement."
Oh right, why did they forget this place, they had already been there on the first day they came to the manor, probably because this place always gives people an ominous feeling, they didn't remember it.
Everyone then walked towards the basement together, passed through the cold corridor, and came to the front of the collection room. The door of the collection room was open, which seemed to have informed everyone of Kathy's whereabouts.
Entering the collection room, Arthur lit the candles on all the walls, and everyone immediately saw Kathy lying on the wall. At this time, she was lying on the ground with her back to everyone, and everyone didn't know what happened.
The judge stepped forward first, walked up to Kathy and knelt down, and patted Kathy's shoulder with his palm. Kathy didn't respond, but the skin under his hands was already cold. The judge had a bad feeling. He held Kathy's shoulder, Turning Kathy's body over, the bloody face immediately appeared in front of his eyes.
"!!!"
The judge took a few steps back in shock. At this time, the others also saw Kai Xi's appearance clearly, and they all jumped in fright. Although the person in front of him had golden curly hair like Kai Xi, his face was covered with blood and flesh, like It was as if someone had dug out the cheek, which was terrifying.
"Hey, what's going on here... Ah, it's this painting!"
Bellamy noticed that the painting of the Duchess was placed next to Kathy. At this time, the black and white painting was dyed red, and on the cheek of the portrait was Kathy's broken skin. Behind the black eyes, the Duchess Eyes opened.
Chao An's body floated to the corridor, and he saw a candle slowly emerge from the darkness, holding the candlestick in a white hand, walking towards the collection room step by step.
When she was five steps away from Chao An, Chao An saw her face clearly. It was Kathy, but it was not a girl Kathy, but an adult version of Kathy. She was wearing a white nightdress and walked towards Chao An install.
