Astral Traveler [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 139 The Thread of Life
The butler led a group of six people to the guest room.
His arrangements are quite thoughtful, the six separate bedrooms are large enough for everyone to live comfortably.
But obviously, everyone is afraid of this strange environment.Immediately after the butler left, everyone left the room at the same time and gathered at their door.
"It would be great if I could hide in the room for one night..." Lydia, one of the glamorous royal sisters, said, "It's a pity, this castle is definitely not that simple."
Several people were silent for a moment, and the eldest brother Bruno suggested: "Why don't we search nearby and find the map of the castle first?"
The escaping little brother Genos said: "Topographic map, oh, why don't you ask the butler for it?"
"Because we don't know if he's good or bad," Bruno said.
When everyone had a lot of opinions, Murphy raised his hands helplessly: "Excuse me, didn't you conduct a search the first time you entered the bedroom?"
Everyone: "..."
Genos said: "My friend, you have brought characters too fast! At present we simply don't have the consciousness and instinct to search the whole room..."
Murphy held up a few pieces of paper in his hand and said, "This is what I found. It looks like someone's diary."
Genos said: "Oh my God, this is so classic. Every mysterious place will have a diary telling the tragic past of a victim..."
"Okay, Genos, are you complaining?" Bruno slapped Genos on the shoulder, "Let's take a look at what is written in this diary first."
The content of the diary is very simple, written by a ghost detective.
He was invited by Alice, the hostess of the castle, to come to lift the curse of the Frederick family.So he stayed in the guest room for the night, and planned to get to know everyone in the family one by one the next day.
He scribbled down the current situation of the Frederick's house, which seemed to be a loving couple and their four children, and the master and a younger sister also lived here.For reasons unknown, their grandfather, Carl Friedrich, had been missing for a long time.
...that's the end of the diary.
There were only these two pages in Murphy's hand, which seemed to be taken from a loose-leaf notebook.
"It seems that the key to this mission should be the curse of the Frederick family..." Bruno said.
"Otherwise what is it, is it 'How to stay in love after ten years of marriage'? And 'How to survive the hell of raising four bear children?" Genos complained.
Bruno slapped him hard on the back and said, "Stop talking nonsense, I suggest that we each go back to our rooms and have a look, maybe there is some additional information."
Several people had no objection, and went back to the room respectively.
When Francis entered the door, he suddenly let out a scream, which shocked everyone who was tense.
Bruno was the first to rush up to observe the situation, and brought Francis out by the way.After a while, he came out with black lines all over his head and said, "It's nothing special, it's just a cat."
"cat?"
Before Bruno could answer, everyone had already seen the cat coming out of Francis' room...
It was a little black cat, which seemed to be only a few months old, and it was still a ball of black wool.It looked much more terrified than these humans. It rushed out of the room, and then poked its head out at the corner of the corridor.
The only woman among them, the 19-year-old bespectacled girl Caroline stretched out her hand and whispered, "Come here, baby."
However, as soon as the black cat saw her staring at him, he ran away in fear.
"That might be a clue, but we're having trouble catching a nimble cat right now," Bruno said. "Hey Francis, don't be so timid, it's just a black cat."
He patted Francis on the shoulder, who hung his head in frustration.
Royal Sister Lydia complained in a low voice: "Sissy." Murphy, who was standing beside her, heard it.
Unfortunately, apart from a few pages of notes in Murphy's room, and a little black cat in Francis' room, they have nothing else to gain.
While everyone was discussing, the elusive housekeeper suddenly reappeared.
He brought a very large amount of food, which was placed in the lounge.
But at this moment, no one dared to eat the food here casually, and... the butler's face became even paler, and under the dim light, an ominous blue color appeared.
After the butler left, the atmosphere became even more gloomy.
Bruno suggested: "Let's focus on the bedroom first and search outside. There is still too little information... At least we need to know who the members of the Frederick family are, and who is most likely to have a curse on them." .”
At this time, Murphy raised his hand again: "Didn't you notice the oil portraits on the wall when you came here?"
"Ah, the portrait, I remember a group photo of the master and hostess of the castle..." the glasses girl said.
Murphy said speechlessly: "Then none of you noticed that their names were written on the oil paintings. I counted them on the way here, and there were exactly seven oil paintings from the stairs to the corridor. , that is, there are eight Fredericks, as stated in the diary."
Janos said, "Oh my god! My friend, how can you still be in the mood to look at the oil paintings on the road in that situation, and actually count them?"
"...that's just basic observation," Murphy said.
Genos said: "Then how many steps did we walk in total?"
"We went up to the second floor, and the two steps add up to a total of 22 steps." Murphy said.
"..." Genos asked again, "How many words did I say in total?"
Murphy said: "Including what you said in the car, there are 43 sentences in total."
As soon as the words fell, everyone looked at Murphy with very surprised eyes.
Genos said: "You bastard! You are a robot!"
Bruno reached out and patted Murphy's shoulder, showing a smile with eight teeth: "Hey, handsome boy, you are now our top think tank."
Murphy: "..."
Then, a group of six people quickly returned the same way and came to the corridor they had passed before.
A piece of oil painting is hanging on the wall vividly, and the characters in it are all very handsome-Frederis gene is really very good.
And in the corner of the portrait, the name and date of birth of each character were written.These names are: Carl Friedrich (abbreviated below), Bruno (male host), Alice (hostess), Lydia (Bruno's younger sister), Enoch (eldest brother), Genos (second male) , Francis (three boys), Caroline (youngest sister).
That's right, these names are exactly the same as the six of them - except for Murphy.
The faces of everyone who saw here suddenly became very bad.
Because these members of the Frederick family were all born more than 200 years ago.Which also means...they're all dead.
"Why, why do we all have the same name?" Lydia first questioned, "Only Murphy is different. He and Enoch Frederick don't have the same name."
Janos said: "Could it be that he used a name?"
Murphy recalled the ID card of the original owner of the body, and then the corner of his mouth twitched.The original owner is obviously called Brian, so it doesn't make sense at all, okay...
"Cough, um, I do have a former name." Murphy vaguely said.
Bruno said at this time: "No matter what, the mysterious person who brought us here must have a conspiracy. There is no such thing as a coincidence in the world..."
Francis said quietly: "Maybe we are the reincarnation of these people?"
"I hope it's a reincarnation, so at least there won't be ghosts with the same name as us coming to hunt us down in this castle..." said the girl with glasses.
Everyone: "..." The more you talk, the more terrifying it becomes!
While they were talking, a loud bell sounded from the top of the building, which startled everyone and interrupted the conversation.
It's seven o'clock in the evening, and there are still 11 hours before the task is completed.
The old butler suddenly came up from downstairs, his footsteps were not slow, but extremely heavy.
"Guests, don't you want to rest?" The old housekeeper walked up to everyone with a plate of fruit.
For all to see, the fruit was covered with mold and was clearly spoiled.But the old housekeeper didn't seem to know anything, and his face was already pale, and at first glance he looked more like a corpse than a person.
Several people retreated again and again, not daring to approach.
At this time, the old butler said: "I can help all the guests fall asleep..."
As he spoke, he suddenly picked up the fruit knife from the plate and walked towards the crowd.
The two women, plus Francis, screamed at the same time.
"Run!" Bruno yelled, turned around and led the crowd to run to the other side of the corridor.
The butler didn't chase very fast, but the panicked people ran quite fast, and immediately left the former behind.
Then Bruno took the lead and kicked open a door.Everyone filed in at once, and then closed the gate—and fastened the bolt securely.
At this time, they looked around and found that it was a small church with all kinds of equipment, and there was a small confessional in the corner.
There was a thick booklet on the pulpit in the middle. Bruno, who was the most daring, went up to check it out, and turned around and said, "This is the genealogy of the Frederic family... I saw the last page. The family tree is consistent with what is written on the portrait."
In front of the confession room, Murphy also found out, saying: "This seems to be another page of the detective's diary."
On this page of the diary, Mr. Ghost Detective wrote about his investigation of two members of the Frederick family.
He said that Bruno, the male owner of the Friedrich family, was a devout believer, so he built a church at home, and he would come here to pray every day.
The rest of the Fredericks were all non-religious, but Enoch, the eldest, also came to church.
And he came here for a very special reason...
His arrangements are quite thoughtful, the six separate bedrooms are large enough for everyone to live comfortably.
But obviously, everyone is afraid of this strange environment.Immediately after the butler left, everyone left the room at the same time and gathered at their door.
"It would be great if I could hide in the room for one night..." Lydia, one of the glamorous royal sisters, said, "It's a pity, this castle is definitely not that simple."
