Belch recalled that in just a few minutes, he experienced a series of thrilling situations that could be called magnificent for him.

After the horror of escaping from the dead, there is actually some secret... exhilaration?

Seeing that Sidelle ignored him, Belch was a little aggrieved, but under Sidelle's indifferent gaze, he decisively shut his mouth and stood obediently aside.

Sidelle turned her gaze to Charlie, looked him up and down a few times, and the arrow in her hand was a little stronger, drawing a bloodstain on the skin of the man's neck.

But Sidelle didn't interrupt Charlie either.

She raised her eyelashes, and said calmly: "Go ahead." Continue to make up, she really wants to know how Charlie will make up for what he has done.

Just now, relying on the gun in his hand, Sidelle still remembered clearly that this person fished in troubled waters and tried to threaten her while Belch was being taken away.

Although she likes to keep a low profile, she is not the type who can bear being wronged.

Now that Charlie fell into her hands, Sidelle had no patience, and her methods were naturally not too gentle.

——Although the gun originally belonged to Charlie, and the arrow also belonged to Charlie...

However, maybe pretending to be a bad school bully, Sidelle held Charlie's weapon and pointed it at him. Not only did she not feel ashamed, she even felt a little bit disgusted that the arrow was not sharp enough.

□□During the fight with Vincent, he was broken by Vincent.

At this moment, Charlie could only grit his teeth silently, suppress the annoyance in his heart, and raised his face with a flattering smile: "I swear to God, everything I say comes from the heart. I never thought of hurting innocent people, I was just eager to Take Penelope out of this dangerous situation, my fiancée is a weak woman after all... As a husband, I am responsible for the safety of my family..."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Belch, who was listening on the sidelines, couldn't help breaking the stage: "Your fiancée is much more capable than you. I think she should be worried about you."

Charlie: "..." He bitterly remembered Belch in his heart.

Sidelle heard Belch's dismantling words.

The girl sneered lightly, slightly raised the hand holding the arrow, and moved it away from Charlie's neck.The slender arrow body twirled carelessly between plain white fingers. She played with it for a while, tilted her head as if thinking for a few seconds, and suddenly smiled and said, "He said you were lying, did you hear that?"

Even without the arrow to resist the threat of harm, Charlie didn't dare to get up.

In his opinion, Belch is not too simple.It seems easy-going and harmless, but he can sneak into the lair of the murderer and wait quietly for the opportunity to attack... The most important thing is that after he pretended to be kind and escaped from the wax museum with Belch, Charlie changed his face instantly , turned around and wanted to put the machete he picked up casually on Belch's neck.

As a result, when he turned around, just as he raised the knife, he saw Belch raise the bow and arrow in his hand at the same time, and the wax-smeared boy pointed the weapon at him with cold eyes.

Look, how does this look like a normal sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy? ?

As for his sister... let alone.

He was able to tame this boy who was used to pretending but was actually too cruel, as quiet as a quail.

Even with a glance, Belch's legs began to tremble.

Charlie didn't know that trembling legs were the norm for Belch.Now he doesn't want to think about it anymore, he failed to grab the belt, and he thinks he can't beat the siblings, so he is very aware of current affairs, and he simply bowed his head and begged for mercy.

Now, Charlie didn't dare to neglect Sidelle's calm question.His brain was running fast, trying to find a reasonable explanation to face the doubts of the people in front of him.

However, before he could reply——

To be precise, it was the time when the girl didn't call him back at all.

Sidel turned the arrow in her hand a few times. She was just asking casually, but seeing that Charlie didn't reply in time, she just smiled leisurely and stabilized the arrow in her hand.

The next moment, the triangular arrowhead gleaming with silver light was savagely inserted into Charlie's shoulder and neck. With Charlie's exclamation and curses overflowing from the pain, the blood stained the snow-white lining, and mixed with the rain, it quickly stained the man. Half body.

"Hold……"

Charlie frowned, gritted his teeth, and filled his eyes with anger. He raised his head and said, "I just want to live. I can tell you my experience..."

Are you not doing the same?Hurting others is just to fight for his own survival... He doesn't think he has done anything wrong.

Sidel, however, ignored him.

The girl raised her eyelashes, her eyes were cold and lazy, she pulled out the arrowhead that was screwed into Charlie's flesh, and the triangular head that gleamed with silver light was dripping with blood, and was pressed against Charlie's forehead.

Drops of blood rolled down, and Charlie even saw the drops of blood from his body slide down the tip of his nose.

Sidelle tilted her head, seemed to think for a while, and then slowly slid the arrowhead to her temple.

The cold and sharp touch of the arrowhead slowly moved along the skin.

The blond girl smiled at him without any trace of malice.Not at all emotional.

"Go on," she said softly, and there seemed to be a trace of unknown joy hidden in her words.

Then, she turned her head and asked the boy beside her, "Next time, how about stabbing in here?"

The arrowhead was directed at Charlie's temple.

Belch: "...?" He looked back in horror and bewilderment.

Why do you ask him such a thing? !Does he, does he seem to be able to make such a choice... And this kind of statement is really easy to misunderstand that their siblings are psychopathic killers with a penchant for tormenting people!

Charlie's body trembled slightly. Except for the family's killing party, he felt extreme fear for the first time. He opened his mouth, and a thunder blasted, and the man's pale face was reflected by the snow-bright thunder.

"Don't, don't kill me..." He finally couldn't hold it anymore, his body was limp, he took a breath, and said in a low voice, "I'll say anything..."

Charlie closed his eyes tightly in pain, and his Adam's apple moved slightly. After a while, the man began to tell his true story in a low voice.

"I do come from a wealthy family that occupies the top in the board game business. Our family has made a fortune in printing poker since World War II, and it is still making a lot of money in this type of game business until now. But , because my family is a 'game' family, therefore, my family...has a tradition."

"Every outsider, if he wants to join our family, he must play a game."

"If outsiders want to become members of our family, they must draw a card from a small black box before they get married."

"There are dozens of cards in that black box. Each card corresponds to a game."

"The contents of the game in the card are both good and bad. But as long as the game is completed, they can join my family and become one of us."

"And my wife, Penelope, before she got married, drew the worst card in the black box."

"--hide and seek."

Charlie laughed at himself, swallowed slowly, and looked up at Sidelle and Belch, "This game is for outsiders to play hide-and-seek with all members of the family in my old house."

"The time limit is from zero o'clock tonight to before the sun rises tomorrow."

"During this time, Penelope has to hide in the old house, and everyone in my family will be dispatched to find the person who is hiding..."

He was silent.

After a while, he said, "Then, if Penelope is found, they will use her as a sacrifice to the devil and kill her."

"Then what if Penelope is not found after the time limit has passed?"

Charlie narrowed his eyes and shook his head: "No one knows what will happen after the time limit."

"Because everyone who drew this card in the past died in the hands of me and my family members."

Belch couldn't help but asked, "Why does your family have such a strange tradition?"

Charlie said: "It is said that my great-grandpa used to be a sailor. He met a mysterious gentleman when he went out to sea. After betting with that mysterious Mr. Lebel, my great-grandfather won, so Mr. Lebel I gave my great-grandpa a black box, saying that the black box can protect my family’s wealth and fortune.”

"Since then, my great-grandfather has had a smooth journey and started from scratch. Up to now, our family has accumulated countless wealth."

"But the price is that we have to promise him forever."

"Every new member must be approved by Mr. Lebel before he can join our family and enjoy the wealth he has given."

"So, every outsider must go through the black box to draw cards. Those who draw good cards can join smoothly. Those who draw bad cards can only be sacrificed as Mr. Lebel's reward for protecting our family."

"As for the bad cards," he smiled wryly, "there is only the 'hide and seek' one."

Sydel: "..." She was silent.

It sounds like Penelope's luck is really bad.Just before marrying into a wealthy family, he drew the only bad card out of dozens of cards.

"My family members will kill Penelope," Charlie closed his eyes in pain, "but I swear, I love her, and I can't accept losing her life..."

"I didn't want to marry her at first, but Penelope couldn't accept it. She has no status to live with me for the rest of my life. Therefore, I can only tell her about this, and I have worked hard on the family side to draw a day in advance. Card."

"Who knows, she won the game of hide and seek."

Belch couldn't hold back again: "Aren't you and your family uneducated? Don't you think this old-fashioned rhetoric of the devil's asylum fate is ridiculous?!"

Although he never attended the lectures, Belch, who had attended the school seriously for more than ten years, raised an unbelievable question.

He couldn't believe that a big chaebol who was ranked among the richest people in the United States would believe such absurd remarks.

Sidelle glanced at him, and Belch immediately fell silent.

Charlie sneered twice: "I don't believe in such absurd words, although they said all day that they can't defy Mr. Lebel, otherwise terrible things will happen. But there can't be demons in the world!"

"But my family won't believe it," he sighed, "and, to tell you the truth, I...have participated in this kind of massacre. There are dozens of people in my family, and there are always unlucky people who get bad cards. .”

It's just that now, the victim has become his wife, and his interests are involved, so Charlie can't accept it.

In the night of massacre before, in fact, he quite enjoyed it.

But it is impossible to say such words, Charlie coughed twice, and said: "I originally wanted to buy a girl who was similar in shape and hair color to Penelope. You can easily find it on the black market." The person who fits—”

He didn't dare to hide any more, and said dryly: "I spent a lot of money, and the seller quickly found a girl who met the requirements for me. It's just that the place of transaction was in a remote town. I avoided the sight of everyone in my family and lied to them that I was with Penelope's last date when she went out was actually to pick someone up with her..."

"I'm going to kill that girl, and then ask Penelope to change clothes with her. Before midnight, I can go back to the old house and set up the scene... When playing hide-and-seek, the monitoring equipment in the house must be turned off, which is also very important. Created an opportunity for me. I can disfigure the girl's face, and then hang her body on the ceiling, or ceiling fan - in short, any corner that can be hung, design the mechanism in advance, destroy the switch..."

"In the dark, I could completely fake the scene where Penelope was shot, fell down the stairs, and had her face mutilated."

"But you didn't get the girl from the trafficker." Sidelle said suddenly.

Charlie was stunned. After a few seconds, he nodded and said with some surprise: "I really didn't receive the goods from the traffickers."

Before they could reach the small town, the torrential rain was getting heavier, and the mud and rocks blocked the way forward. Charlie and Penelope could only rush back to see if they could find a suitable girl in the urban area... But unexpectedly, the way back was also blocked.

After Charlie finished explaining, Belch was stunned.

That being the case, then... where did the girl in the trunk of his car come from?
