Paranoid Love Poem [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 30 The Absolute Island

The maid went up to the second floor and turned into a long corridor on the left.The light in the corridor is dim, and the wall lamps on the walls on both sides dance like candlelight.

Not long after, she came out again, stood at the stairs on the second floor, and said: "Miss Zhai is kind-hearted, and agrees with you to take shelter here from the rain. She asked me to ask if you would like to stay for dinner."

It was raining heavily outside, forming small rivers on the windows.

Her lofty eyes fell on the unconscious girl, and said: "Miss ordered me to put that lady in the guest room first, here are some cold medicines, maybe you can use them."

The guest room is on the right side of the second floor, where there are many windows, the lighting is good, the bulbs are full of power, and it looks even brighter than the owner's territory.

"The guest rooms here are all empty. If you want to stay overnight, you can find a room for yourself." The maid paused and said, "There is only one thing I want to explain in advance." She stopped and warned bluntly: " Please keep quiet after dark and don't disturb the lady."

Looking out from the window of the guest room, the waves slapped on the dark rocks, and the roar of the beast appeared and disappeared, sometimes it seemed to be an auditory hallucination under the insanity, and sometimes it fell into the ears for real.

The maid put the water and the milky white medicine bottle on the desk next to the door, and bent down to light the wall fire.

The room was instantly filled with warmth, and the fire soothed people's hearts.

"Your clothes are soaking wet. There are spare clothes in the guest room. The summons bell is on the bedside table. I will call you when dinner is ready."

There are some granular white solids in the medicine bottle, the water looks like ordinary water, and the system says nothing is wrong.Ji Churong tapped a few drops on his fingertips and took a sip. There was no peculiar smell or adverse reaction.

Instead of using the medicine brought by the maid, he quietly poured a little recovery agent into the water for Xia Qing to feed Wen Qiusheng.

The weird blue liquid is more popular than the normal-looking pill.

Surrounded by Wen Qiusheng's bed in the warm glow of the wall fire, everyone was caught up in their own thoughts.

'System, can you detect the location of the energy crystal? '

'Yes, but not sure. '

'unconfirmed? '

'Well, host, this world is really too strange.The breath of Neng Jing is everywhere in that sea area, and it is also in the wind, including every plant and tree on the island, not only that, but also in this villa, even the guest room we are in now, every table and chair has the breath of Neng Jing . '

Frowning, Ji Churong thought, and turned his attention to someone.In the corner of the room, Li Liqun was sitting on the sofa near the wall fire, with his back straight and his hands clenched on his knees.In the warm light, his body was unnaturally cold.

Outside the window, the rain showed no sign of stopping.

I don't know how long it took, as if it was just a moment, the maid knocked on the door of the guest room again.

"Gentlemen and ladies, would you like to come downstairs to dinner with me?"

When it comes to meals, the stomach is the first to regain consciousness in fear. First, he narrowly escaped from the sea monster, and then he was worried on the island. He was really hungry.

Xia Qing volunteered to stay and take care of Wen Qiusheng. Ji Churong and others followed the maid back to the first floor. When they passed the murals on both sides of the stairs, Li Liqun suddenly approached Ji Churong as if avoiding something terrible.

The dining room is located behind the living room. The long dining table is covered with a snow-white tablecloth, and various red flowers are decorated on the central axis.Maybe it's because of the dim light in the house as a whole. The red on the table looks like a river of blood at first glance, winding from the end of the long table.

A butler holding a red gold candlestick walked in from the side door of the dining room, and the dancing fire startled everyone.

"There...is there someone else here!?" Shen Guangji widened his eyes, as if he wanted to carefully distinguish whether the housekeeper was a human or a ghost.

The butler nodded slightly to everyone, and bowed to light the candles at the end of the long table. In the light of the two candles, a gloomy old man's face emerged.

The old lady in the high position said in a deep voice: "Susan, who are they?" Her eyes fell on the dirty soles of the shoes, which were stepping on her precious carpet.

His upper body moved back, sinking into the back of the chair, and the emerald ring with the big thumb covered was in front of his nose.

"Miss let them take shelter from the rain and entertain them for dinner."

Another candle was lit, and the man on the old lady's right emerged from the darkness.

"I said why the butler put a few more sets of tableware. It turns out that there are guests." He was extremely good-looking, and the real person was much more handsome than the portraits on both sides of the stairs. At this moment, with a gentle and modest smile on his lips, he said: "Really, Sophia didn't tell me in advance. You too, Susan. It's really rude for the host to not greet the guests when they come."

Susan glanced at him and stood by the door with her hands down.

Candles are lit one by one, and the darkness recedes into a corner.

Only then did the group see clearly that there were two women and one man in this dining room.The old lady sitting in the first place has a beautiful blond woman on her left.

The butler is filling each glass with a third of red wine.

"Take your seats quickly. With such a thunderstorm appearing on this island, I guess you must have encountered trouble at sea." The man who regarded himself as the owner greeted.

Before Chen Ce, Li Liqun sat down next to Ji Churong, and said to the person in the chief seat: "Our boat was blown to this island by the sea wind, and it was raining heavily. Fortunately, Your Excellency took us in. I don't know what your name is?"

"Kane, Kane Roterian."

Li Liqun's pale face was illuminated by lightning, and he pulled the corners of his mouth to show a smile, and said: "I have heard about the great name of the Rothrien family for a long time, and they were granted the title by the king for their meritorious service. It is the most well-inherited and oldest family."

Thanks to Li Liqun's indiscriminate use of words, the old lady was willing to remove the hand covering her nose, and there was a smile on her face that said, "I know what you're telling the truth, but I'm really ashamed."

Turning his head away, Li Liqun casually whispered: "Calculating, in this year, it should be several generations."

Kane said: "I am the No.11 heir."

The woman sitting upright on the right side of the old lady gave Kane a slight look, with an indescribably mischievous look in her eyes.

Kane suddenly said: "I forgot to introduce, this is my mother, that is my cousin, Baron Dewey's youngest daughter, Sera Dewey."

Kane seemed to be very interested in Li Liqun, and kept chatting with him during the dinner.Li Liqun used the cover of the conversation to only sip a couple of sips of red wine and never touched the food on the plate.

Ji Churong inserted a small tomato and fiddled with the side dishes at will.

Seeing this, Shen Guangji rubbed his hungry stomach and forced himself not to look at those tempting steaks.

The most unpopular one was Chen Ce. When others were eating, he tapped the table with his index finger like a woodpecker, and rubbed the flat of his dagger against his jeans back and forth.

Sitting next to Chen Ce, Ji Churong could hear his breathing getting faster and faster. At the same time, the frequency of sharpening the knife became faster and faster. The blade sometimes cut through his pants, leaving a line of blood on his leg.His pair of black eyes contained a kind of forbearance, and he swept across the audience over and over again, and his face twitched from time to time.

Suddenly, Sera said: "Sister Sophia's cough is still not cured?"

Focusing on the wooden floor, Sophie said, "Yes."

"Can I visit her? I live under the same roof, and I haven't spoken to her for a long time."

Before the maid could answer, the old lady sneered first, and said: "I'm too sick to get out of bed, and I still have the time to cram people into the room. Even if you don't have time to talk to us, you still have to trouble others to find time to talk to you. It's hard for the strong."

Susan's eyes moved from the floor to the old lady. The dignified old lady in gold and silver was like a floor in her eyes.

"What are you looking at?" The old lady squinted her eyes: "Even if the new school people don't follow the rules and traditions, the servants trained should also know some etiquette."

The atmosphere condensed for a moment, Kane put down the knife and fork, covered the back of his mother's hand, and said, "Mother, why do you have to get angry with a little girl, I will let Sophia discipline her later."

After a meal, the host and guest broke up unhappy, and when everyone left, the butler standing in the corner extinguished the candles one by one.The dining room was back in darkness, and the aroma of the food had long since cooled, replaced by a strange, heavy smell of dust.

That night, Li Liqun knocked on Ji Churong's door.

The fear he had accumulated all day poured out in an instant, and the hand clasping Ji Churong's shoulder turned pale due to excessive force.

"Escape...Mr. Ji...we want to escape..."

The rain outside the house was still falling, tick tock, tick tock, hitting the window, those raindrops were like small eyes, looking curiously at the two people in the room.

"This is a haunted house!" Li Liqun twitched his lips. He was in a hurry, racing against time to finish his words: "Everyone here is a ghost! It's a ghost!"

Holding Li Liqun's wrist instead, Ji Churong said, "Don't panic. Li Liqun, don't be afraid."

Perhaps it was the battle at sea that established absolute prestige, and under Ji Churong's patient reassurance, Li Liqun gradually recovered his breath.He took deep breaths over and over until the panic subsided, and said: "My family history is quite long, because of some business contacts, I have learned the family history of many big families since I was a child, including Rottery. En family."

"This family can be traced back to the period of feudal rule, experienced several generations of kings, and finally declined around the Industrial Revolution. At that time, class changes were great, and emerging capitalist families continued to rise. Roterian, who failed to keep up with the times, became impoverished and declined. In order to revitalize the family, Lautrien had to put down his dignity and marry the new family. In order to return to the glorious and luxurious life of the past, Lautrien's heir made a marriage contract with the bank tycoon at the time, the only daughter of Mr. Pedal."

"However, instead of revitalizing Roterion, this marriage contract has completely destroyed it."

"All tragedies started with this marriage contract. Two months before the wedding, Mr. Pedar's daughter, the bride-to-be who was sitting on a golden mountain, was found dead in the wilderness."

"Mr. Rothrien was very distressed. Later, he married another woman."

"However, on the day of Mr. Rothrien's wedding, all the guests, including the bride and groom, died unexpectedly. Not only that, all the corpses were put in penitent poses."

"The tragedy shocked society at the time and even caused considerable panic."

"People say that the bride-to-be must have died in a conspiracy. She was full of resentment and came back for revenge."

"I recognize the portraits on both sides of the stairs. I have seen them in books. They are the last heir of Roterian, Cain Roterian who died at the wedding."

Li Liqun panicked again, he said: "You heard me, I have confirmed again and again, he is Kane Roterian, No.11 and the last heir." He suddenly shuddered: "Wait... The lady that the maid is talking about...could it be..."

Before the man collapsed, Ji Churong said, "It's a human being."

"what!?"

"I said, they are human beings." Ji Churong pointed to his ears and said, "I can hear their heartbeats."

Li Liqun was stunned. He was confused for a moment, not knowing what to believe and what to avoid. He just murmured: "It is indeed Kane. They are indeed dead. After the wedding, Lautrien completely disappeared."

Ji Churong pushed open the door, his guest room was facing the corridor on the master's side, and the lady's room was deep in the corridor.

"Perhaps, it's time to find a chance to visit the mysterious lady."

The light bulb in the corridor flickered again, as if it was blown out, and completely extinguished, and the darkness deep in the corridor spread out.
