On both sides of the corridor are the same decorations and roses, extending infinitely as if there is no end.

"How long can this house be?" Resa turned his head, but at this moment he couldn't see the door he just entered.

"Obviously someone created an illusion." Ida looked around and said, "Maybe we are actually in a dilapidated broomroom in the manor right now."

At this moment, there was a scream of fear from the corridor. The three of Reza followed the sound and found the door of the room where the sound came from.

There were scorched black and withered roses everywhere in the room. Beside the central piano, a man and a woman were looking at their hands in horror. The voice just now was made by these two people.

Reza took a closer look, and saw that mottled stone moss was growing on the hands of the two at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the fingertips had completely turned into stone.

"Save, save us!"

The man asked Leisa for help in horror, and stretched his hands forward to grab Leisa's arm.

Resa dodged the man's hand and asked with a serious expression, "What did you touch just now?"

"piano……"

"We didn't do it on purpose." The voice of the woman on the side was already crying: "There are hints on the music score. As long as you compose the above movement, you can get clues about the rose crystal."

Reza turned his head, and there was indeed an open score on the shelf of the piano, and there was a line of small words under the score: "The clue is behind the music."

"...Your comprehension skills are awesome!"

"Stop making sarcastic remarks!" The man broke down and yelled at Resa: "Help me! I don't want to die in this ghostly place!"

"Don't worry!" Resa lazily rubbed his sore ears, "Who told you to touch things randomly? Didn't K tell you that there is danger hidden here?"

"Now, let's start to check the room." Resa seemed not to see the two people who had collapsed on the chair, and slowly swayed in the room with his hands in his pockets.

Except for the piano in the room, there are withered roses, the petals of which have long been dusted, even the vibration of shoes on the floor can cause the petals to scatter and fall to the floor and turn into dust.

Yida walked up to the crying woman and took her arm to check the stone moss on her skin.

"Take it easy, I won't save you if you get infected."

"Thank you for reminding me. I didn't expect you." Ida carefully checked the stone moss pattern on the girl's hand: "I'm poisoned. If I don't detoxify, the stone moss will grow into the internal organs and I will die."

Yida's words were like a notice of critical illness, and the two cried out at the same time.

Reza frowned and glanced at Ida's direction: "Why tell if you know it? Can't you let them both calm down and accept death?"

"They'll shut up completely when they're hoarse. Look at your room, sir!"

Reza's boots stepped on the soft carpet without making a sound, but a slight friction sound caught Reza's attention. Reza lowered his head and saw that the carpet in the room was covered with finely divided soil.

"How long has it been since someone cleaned this room?" Resa said disgustedly.

Looking forward along the edge of the carpet, beside a broken vase lying on the ground, Ian was squatting there, pinching something with his fingers.

"What did you find?"

Resa walked over and squatted beside the boy, only to realize that what the boy was holding was actually a lump of dirt.

The soil fell out of the vase, and it was still a wet mass, unlike the ones on the ground, which had completely dried and turned into powder.

"This soil doesn't taste right."

Reza frowned slightly, and checked the broken vase. It had been filled with soil, and there was no trace of planting at all.

Going to the piano again, the piano shelf is clean without a trace of dust, and the score is brand new.Leisa carefully examined the piano around, and suddenly seemed to remember something, Leisa said to the man who was still crying: "You, press two keys at will."

"I, we were poisoned because of playing the piano!"

"Anyway, you've already been poisoned, and it's not bad once in Zaizhong."

"But—" the man wanted to say something, but was interrupted impatiently by Resa: "I am looking for a way to save you, if you are in ink, I will leave."

The man had no choice but to control his fingers and press the keys with difficulty while crying.

Reza lowered her eyebrows, listening to the messy music played by the man without saying a word.

"stop!"

Reza returned his gaze to the piano, reached under the soundboard, and found a puddle of finely crushed soil after a while.

"What is this?" Ida moved closer to Reza.

"Clue." Reza put the soil in front of his nose. There was no peculiar smell of soil, but an indescribable smell.

"Is it the same smell as the soil just now?" Reza passed his hand in front of Ian, who sniffed it and nodded.

"That's right."

Reza walked up to the man in front of the piano, and poured all the soil on the man's arm.

The stone moss that had grown to the elbow suddenly stopped spreading, and Reza chuckled, "bingo!"

"What, what is this?"

"Your antidote." Resa clapped his hands and pulled Ian to go out: "If you want to antidote, just roll on the carpet twice."

Resara opened the door, but the endless corridor was no longer in front of her.

"This is, the church?" Ida looked up at the tall stone statue in the center of the church in surprise. A beautiful woman was tied to the pillar with her hands behind her back, and the ropes on her body were full of rose thorny vines.

Reza walked into the stone sculpture and saw the words on the base of the stone sculpture - "Eternal Lady Rose: Igmali."

In the middle of the table under the stone sculpture, there are soil, water and an empty glass bottle.

"This seems to be the first Lady Rose in the history of Huadu, but the ending is not very good, ***."

Reza looked at the three things on the table and fell into deep thought. Ida walked around the church. The roses around the church were still alive and exuded a strong rose fragrance.

"Here, there is another door!"

Ida waved to Reza from the left side of the stone statue.

"Let's go, there's nothing to see here." As he said, Reza grabbed Ian's hand that touched the glass bottle, and pulled him towards Ida.

Reza held Ian with one hand and held the doorknob with the other to open the door. The moment the door opened, the surrounding scene instantly reversed. Reza blinked and found that he was standing on a hot air balloon, with a hand held by his wrist. ian.

"what's the situation?"

When Resa looked up, he realized that there were only himself and Ian in the frame of the hot air balloon.And Ida, who was already standing inside the door, looked at him in surprise.

"Give me your hand, quick!"

Before Ida could react, the rose vines inside the door spread wildly and blocked the door.The protruding vines attacked in the direction of Reza.

"Be careful!" Reza blocked Ian behind him, and when he was about to draw his gun, he found that the vine disappeared together with the door just now.

Resa cursed in a low voice: "I'm starting to agree with what the man said just now, this place is really a ghost."

As he spoke, Reza let out a long sigh of relief and sat down leaning against the frame, took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it, leisurely watching the birds flying in the sky.

"...Aren't you worried about Date?"

"Don't worry, she's not as fragile as she looks, and you'll know later."

The familiar tone stimulated Ian's nerves again, and the boy sat on the other side of the frame with his back to Resa.

"Still angry?" Resa licked his face and leaned over: "Don't be angry! Smile, I have known you for so long and I haven't seen you smile before."

Ian pretended not to hear.

Leisa chuckled and leaned back to his original position, smoking quietly, the sun was just right, and the two sat in the corner of the bamboo basket without talking.

After finishing a cigarette, Resa stretched his waist and tilted his head lazily: "Actually, I thought about what you said yesterday. If I hadn't met you that day, I probably wouldn't have taken you into the night hunt." .”

Ian blinked, tilted his head slightly, and showed a quarter of his face to Reza.

"Little guy, do you really think that I bring everyone into the night hunt? I'm afraid you don't look down on my title of 'Mate of the Raven'?"

Reza was secretly delighted, and saw half of his profile.

"It was you and me who brought it. If it was someone else, I would care about his life and death. At most, throwing him into the hospital would be considered a good deed every day."

Ian stood up abruptly and walked into Reza, held Reza's face in both hands, and stretched out his tongue to lick the tip of Reza's nose lightly.

"Fuck, I thought you were going to bite me again." Resa muttered secretly, touching the wet nose with his finger: "By the way, what is your habit of pointing at your nose all the time?"

The author has something to say: This chapter is mainly about the plot, in fact, I like to write about their relationship [pick nose]

Ps: licking nose, biting nose, rubbing nose is foreshadowing (~ ̄▽ ̄)~
