"Then I'll go back first." Qi Yan put away the comb and said lightly.

When I went out, I happened to meet the maid.

That's right, he has seen this person before, the king's maid.

Mostly to discuss the birthday party two days later.

Walk through the passage, go back to the princess' room and lock the door.The display is exactly the same, and even the grapes in the fruit plate have been restored to the exact same place.

In the current situation, the hunter will not come to trouble him for the time being.So Qi Yan sat calmly by the bed and opened the notebook.

This time, look backwards.

Since the last sheet was torn off, only a string of crooked letters could be seen on the penultimate sheet.

"Morgana."

Since a few days ago, when he sat by the bed in the wooden house and flipped through this diary, he had an illusion.

Morgana, probably Snow White's mother's best friend.

But as the diary became less and less, he found that the characters who appeared were fixed on "I" and "Arthur".

This Arthur must be someone Snow White's mother likes.

Or, take a wilder guess.

Arthur is king.

But these were not what really puzzled him.What Qi Yan cares about is the second half of the diary, the gifts Arthur gave her, those colorful ribbons, smooth and silky shoelaces, delicious apples...

These things fit perfectly with the murder of the princess.

"The queen wants to kill the princess, but uses the gift that the king has always given to the previous queen..." Qi Yan narrowed his eyes, turned his head behind him, and saw the oil painting.

"A love triangle?"

Morgana is the queen?

If that's the case...

"Dog blood." The witch who couldn't get love killed her former sister, then confused the king and became the new queen.

At first, in order to maintain the good image of her stepmother, she maintained a lukewarm relationship with the princess.Until tonight, the mirror told her that the princess was the most beautiful woman in the world.

Gee tut.

Goofy and boring.

Touching the fiercely written "Morgana" on the notebook with his fingers, his gaze stayed on the queen's gentle face.How miserable is this?

possible……

When the first queen was seriously ill and dying, the little princess was still in her infancy.Taking advantage of the fact that no one was guarding her, she supported her frail body and climbed to the dressing table, writing down the name of the murderer.

Unfortunately, I haven't finished writing yet, maybe something happened, maybe the guard came back.She hastily tore off the last page and hid the diary in a drawer.

And... that page.

Qi Yan pursed her lips and approached the dressing table.

The first queen should be shorter than him.He made a gesture, and along that height there were only... oil paintings by the window?

It was the first time that he was so close to the ground, and Qi Yan found a hole in the forehead of the portrait figure.It seemed that someone had stabbed it with a sharp object.

Stretching out his hand, his fingertips felt tingling just as he touched the frame.

It's not magic, it's just a barb protruding from the edge of the picture frame, piercing into Qi Yan's fingertips.

A full drop of blood fell onto the carpet with a thud.

Take the picture frame away, but in front of your eyes are pure colors.

"White Rose……"

The compartment behind the picture frame is recessed into the wall and is full of roses.

The fingers touched the rose and touched a mass of silk.

It's a ribbon.

To be precise, it should be ribbons and shoelaces.

Who put it here?

What is it here for?

There was a little more brilliance in the calm eyes, as if the story was getting more and more interesting.

"Clang, clang, clang."

At this time, the door was knocked by someone.

Hanging the portrait on the handle back intact, Qi Yan turned and went to the door.

"Clang, clang, clang."

There was another knock on the door.

The person who touched the doorknob gave a pause.

Not right.

It doesn't matter if no one speaks, even the rhythm of knocking on the door twice is exactly the same.

The knock on the door was unavoidably surprising and chilling.

"Bang, kuang, kuang..."

When the never-ending music reappeared, Qi Yan clicked his tongue and quickly opened the door.

But the dagger prepared in advance stopped in the air, and there was nothing in front of him.

Moving down the line of sight, it was a mass of black.

"crow?"

Was it just knocking on the door with its mouth?

Looking at Qi Yan who broke through the door, the dark crow flapped its wings and flew for a short distance.

After flying a few meters, it stopped again, as if waiting for him to follow.

"Birds...roses..."

Naturally, these two words floated in my mind.So he followed suit.

This strange crow flew ahead and led the way. Every time he advanced, he turned his head carefully to see if the people behind were following.

The road became more and more familiar, Qi Yan finally stopped in front of a door.

It's the queen's room.

No, you can't go in.

He didn't know whose pet this crow was, so he couldn't just go in like this, he thought.

But when Qi Yan looked at the Asuka parked on the lampstand again, he found that it had disappeared at some point.

hell.The person in front of the door breathed a sigh of relief, and simply knocked on the door a few times.

No one responded.

It appears that the queen is still with the king.

The door wasn't locked, or...someone opened it on purpose.Generally speaking, Qi Yan would choose to jump into this kind of trap.

After all, the person squatting next to the trap might be useful to him.

Without thinking too much, he opened the door and went in.

The room was dark, with heavy curtains completely blocking out the light from outside.Open the curtains, and you will see wooden boards closed with iron nails in a mess.

The only thing that can be caught is in the cabinet in front of the dressing table.In the slightly opened drawer, there was a faint green light.

Instead of touching the drawer directly, Qi Yan relied on the light to look around.

There is nothing wrong with it.

only……

Open the drawer.

Inside is a simple mirror, the black mirror surface is like a black hole.The stars are shining all around.

And beside the mirror, lay a section of thin conical shape, the silver metal seemed to merge with the gloomy light of the mirror.

"..." Qi Yan lowered his eyelashes, picked up the vanity mirror with one hand, and said, "Magic mirror, magic mirror."

"Hello, my princess." A male voice came from the mirror, but it was still pitch black.

"Tell me, is the queen Morgana?" His voice was cold, more like an NPC than a magic mirror.

"Your Highness, I cannot answer your question." Mirror replied indifferently. "I only answer the master's questions."

"Yeah, I forgot." The man holding the mirror groped around his waist.

Within a few seconds, the tip of the dagger touched the mirror.

The mirror made waves.

"..."

"I'm a little curious, how would this story go on without you?" Qi Yan's face was cold, and the corners of his mouth rose up unprecedentedly.

There was a big wave in the mirror.

"..."

"There are no points deducted for additional questions except for wrong answers, even if I smash you..." the voice continued.

"...I really can't say it." The mirror seemed to want to escape Qi Yan's clutches, struggled for a while but stopped.

"Don't tell me, you can show me." After all, he is also a generous candidate.

"Only one question." Mirror wanted to commit suicide.In the end, under the pressure of the dagger on his stomach, he still showed a "yes".

Morgana, Queen.

Sure enough, I guessed right.

Morgana and Catherine are witches, and the queen and princess are royal women.

Both answers are "2"?

It's kind of...simple.

Qi Yan quickly tapped the mirror a few times, thinking: "So, it's really because of a love triangle. So I killed someone and even robbed her husband."

Can the additional question be so simple?

No, it's impossible.

There are 44 hours left, at least not so simple.

It always feels like something is wrong.

I've had this idea since a long time ago.Come to think of it, probably from... when Snow White was murdered for the first time.

The bloody basket, the singing girl, the free wooden comb...

"lay down!"

A voice suddenly appeared behind him, and Qi Yan paused as if frozen.

It's a male voice.

"You...follow me!"

Where have I heard it.

A hunter who just fell unconscious.

Qi Yan bit his lower lip lightly, put the dead magic mirror on the table, and turned away.

"I'm really curious, how this story will end." I don't know who I'm talking to.

He's going to root out the only character who can get the "princess" out of the castle.

In order to ensure your own safety, and you can't kill him directly... then you have to...

In the darkness, he reached out to touch his shoulder, and tore open half of the skirt.The torn fabric slid down, exposing the collarbone and shoulders.

"...His Royal Highness?!" The corner of the hunter's mouth twitched, secretly sighing that the situation was abnormal.

"Come here—" There was no wave in the voice, but it showed the greatest power in the scene.

As soon as the words came out, people in the entire corridor rushed over in a hurry.

Seeing that the beautiful and kind princess was almost being touched by others, everyone protected Qi Yan with worry and glared at the culprit. "Come on! Catch him!"

"No, no!" The hunter couldn't argue, and was tied up by several guards with ropes.

Qi Yan was protected by a human wall, and tore his clothes a little more.He whispered: "I want to go to my father in person."

Expected to take 10 minutes.

This time, the danger must be eliminated.

He is really curious now, if the princess can't get out of the castle, what will happen.

A group of people supported the princess and forced the hunter to the king's gate.

"Princess" held a small mirror, lowered her eyelids, feeling wronged and pitiful.

Of course, their presence interrupted the ongoing conversation inside.

For the arrival of the princess.

The queen expressed helplessness, and the king expressed shock.

For Snow White's "encounter".

The queen expressed shock, and the king expressed outrage.

"My dear daughter, don't cry, don't cry. Father decides for you."

"Hey, come here, raise your head and say something, Bai Xue?"

"Why don't you talk? Are you scared?"

"No...no..." This response poked the eardrums of everyone present, as if they were about to cry.

"Come on! Throw that bastard into prison!!!" The king dared to wait any longer, and immediately executed him.

"Wait." Qi Yan stopped the guard before revealing the mirror and said, "Father, I just had a dream."

"Dream?" The king narrowed his eyes.

"En." The person under the steps didn't hide anything, and spread the mirror in both hands.

"In my dream, a white pigeon told me that there is hidden in the castle..." He glanced up at the queen.

"Hiding what?" asked the king immediately.

"Hiding... the witch." The last two words were short and powerful, like the first spark that lit a bonfire.
