After the global recovery I crossed

Lin Xingtao took the mirror from the dining room table and pointed it at himself.

The boy in the mirror was handsome, his dark eyes were bright and clear, at this moment, his two eyeballs rolled up with a grunt, and his mouth suddenly protruded outward——

Oh no no no.

Lin Xingtao is sorry for his misreading.

He didn't turn ugly, and he didn't turn into a ghoul.

He even became a little better, mainly in his eyebrows and eyes - the place that was kissed and touched by his wife.

Some people always say that a good-looking face is kissed by God. Does the lady's kiss also have such magic power?

As it was getting dark, he sat in a chair while servants brought in delicious food re-cooked.

Exquisitely shaped lamps were lit up one by one. It seemed that there were both gas lamps and new electric lamps. When the industrial wave hit, the Viscount Mansion did not completely stick to the tradition.

The taste of the food was still delicious, the maid said it was "pigeon burrito", but after witnessing all kinds of corpse blood, Lin Xingtao lost his appetite.

The pendulum swung left and right, and after barely biting into the last piece of burrito, it was pitch black outside.Neither Mrs. nor Lucas had dinner in the dining room. The rest of the place was dark. The whole restaurant was like an island suspended in darkness, and the servants stood silently in the shadows.

Servant of darkness.Lin Xingtao read these words.

Servants of darkness refer to ghouls.

When Madam said that Louis killed Audrey, Lin Xingtao tightened his fingers.

The guards didn't expect it, and neither did Lin Xingtao. They all thought that the ghoul who turned into a big dog Rose killed Audrey.

Especially after seeing that vision, Lin Xingtao clearly confirmed that it was Audrey who summoned the ghoul himself.

But Madam said that it was Louis who killed Audrey, if Madam was not lying—then that ghoul was Louis? !

No, Lin Xingtao thinks not.

He thought of Vision's slender hand that took the book at the end.

The "Corpse Canon" is very likely to be related to Louis, and it was even given to Audrey by Louis, so Madam said that Louis killed Audrey.

Thinking of this, Lin Xingtao asked the servant:

"Did you find your sister's leather shoes?"

The servant replied: "I found it, it's in Rose's kennel."——This shows that Rose did kill Audrey directly.

"Where is the book my sister was holding in her hand?"

The servant replied: "Master, do you mean the book you gave the lady? We didn't find it. It might have been left in the garden, and then it was put back in the study by a passing servant. Someone did go into the study before."——No, It was taken by a man with slender hands.

As for the study——

Lin Xingtao raised his head and walked over the stairs.The study is on the second floor.

When walking towards the study, he himself completed the most likely course of events:

On this day, Audrey, Lucas, and Louis played hide-and-seek together. Audrey searched and the other two hid. Those who were caught would never eat their favorite food.

Before the hide-and-seek begins, Louis gives Audrey a book.

So Audrey was attracted by the books, and instead of going to them, she sat on the swing and read.

She then summoned Rose the Ghoul, who was dragged to a corner of the garden and killed.

So far, Lin Xingtao is quite sure, but then he made a guess.

Next, Louis went back and took the book, and then went to the study by himself. Because of the weirdness of the book—whether Louis knew the weirdness of the book or not, he was killed by the book when he went down the stairs, which caused Lin Xingtao's time travel.

And because of the weird book, Louis's body also undergoes unknowable changes, such as being able to see some weird things.

—Perfect reasoning!

In the oppressive atmosphere, Lin Xingtao even made a joke to himself: Although his body has become smaller, his mind is still smart!

He walked to the study on the second floor. According to his reasoning, the book should still be in the study.

The door of the study room is white, with a golden buckle, and there is a keyhole underneath, with a silver key inserted in it.

He pushed open the door and walked in alone with the lamp in his hand.

In the not-so-bright light, he could see the blue-yellow carpet painted with angels and clouds under his feet, and he could see a white armchair with a long back. central table.

Lin Xingtao put the lamp on the table, reflecting the signature on the edge: Epinal, gift from Count Thomas Meunier.There is also a line of small words below: optimists, enjoy delicious food forever, and stay young forever.

Count Meunier, Lin Xingtao remembered that Police Officer Renault said about this person earlier, [this is even more ridiculous than Count Meunier’s death from overwork].

Lin Xingtao continued to walk forward, in front of him were rose gold desks and desk chairs, shining magnificently under the light.

The desk is a huge dark wooden bookcase next to the wall. From left to right, Lin Xingtao counted a total of twelve.

The colorful book covers add some bright colors to this gloomy study room.

There are probably nearly a thousand books in this study.

He persisted in the lamp to shine on the desk first, then sat down on the chair and flipped through the stacked books.

From "The Death of the First Lady of France" to "Which City in France is the Best to Live in" to "The Age of Steam Comes, the Beginning of a New Century", the themes are all there.

Just when Lin Xingtao thought that the book might not be in the study, he suddenly remembered something.

At the beginning, Lucas ran down from upstairs!

Could it be that he took the book!

Then Lucas was also influenced by the book and did all kinds of weird things!

Lin Xingtao stood up abruptly, and walked out holding the lamp, but outside, it was dark.

A gust of cool wind blew by, and the lamp in his hand went out.

In the darkness, something laughed strangely like a bird.

-

Lucas runs after his mother, panting.

Madam was obviously not walking fast, but Lucas just couldn't catch up with her.

Finally, Madam stopped before walking into a passage and turned her head.

She frowned and said softly, "Lucas, you know, mother's nights don't like to be interrupted if nothing else is going on."

Lucas said quickly, "I know, Mom."

"It's just that I also want to go to the banquet with my mother."

Madam showed a pleasant smile and pinched Lucas' chin with her fingers.

"Mom said it when you played hide-and-seek last time. Next time it's not a three-person hide-and-seek. Mom also wants to play together."

"Lucas, you didn't remember your mother's words."

"What else did mother say, tell me dear."

Lucas trembled and said, "I remember. Mom said, next time hide and seek, the last one caught will be taken to the party and he will be Mom's only child."

"So today it's not me playing hide-and-seek with Audrey and Louise, but Mommy is here to catch us."

The madam lifted Lucas's face up, and Lucas's soft golden curly hair wrapped around his slender fingers.

"Look, Louise remembered it, but you didn't. Oh, Audrey knows it too. Didn't she make a bet with you? The one who finds it first won't be able to eat what she likes again."

Madam continued to touch Lucas's eye sockets tenderly, and said: "Audrey is too good at hiding, you couldn't find her when you played before, so Louis, oh smart Louis, he killed Audrey , making her disqualified from the game."

"Honey, are you scared?"

Lucas trembled violently under such a question, his misplaced eye sockets bulged, and he wanted to get close to his wife's fingers.

Lucas said blankly: "Mom, they became very strange, how could Louis, how could kill his sister, how could a book make her sister go crazy..."

"Mom, you are also wondering why, you are still so gentle."

His expression twisted, and something in his arms fell to the ground.

It was a book called "Corpse Eating Canon Rites".

Lucas said: "I, I also became strange, Mom, I just remember that it must never be found, and why did I lick that piece of flesh? In this way, Mom found it first."

"I, I want to protect Louis, Mom, I seem to think so, but I feel so uncomfortable now, I don't want to lose to Louis."

The lady said softly: "Because you are not crazy enough, my dear, you still have poor kindness and reason."

"But you're wrong, look at Louis, how perfect he is, can you see that he killed Audrey? Can you see that he is going to kill you tonight?"

"He, even finished the book, stood right in front of me, said the spell on it, and played with that group of idiots in the Guard." The book that fell from Lucas flew into Mrs. In her hand, the lady said, "This is a mysterious book, which records many interesting things, such as divination, copulation, witchcraft, and so on."

"--resurrection."

Madam gave Lucas a cold hug, and the book was stuffed into Lucas's hand while embracing.

"With this book, you will become great."

"A child who loses the game is not worthy of being a mother's child, dear."

"But honey, you are mother's son, we have the same beautiful blonde hair, and you have green eyes from your father."

"I'll give you a chance."

"Go! Go to the corpse ignored by everyone!"

"Go to your sister and let the sister who was killed by your brother help you!"

"Go revive her! Let Audrey come back to this world in the form of a ghoul! Go kill Louis!"

"Abandon all your reason and dedicate your whole body to me!"

Lucas staggered out with the book in his arms.

The madam watched his back until the cool night wind blew her tulle back.

She turned and walked back.

She entered a basement with light seeping from all four walls.

In the basement lay a mutilated and beautiful corpse.

The face of the corpse was very similar to that of the lady, and the blond hair was silky like a ribbon, hanging over the naked body.

The madam brushed aside her blond hair, and buried herself in the cold neck with a sigh.

The blonde hair of the two intertwined, inexplicably charming and weird.

And the lady's lips gradually became hot, and she went down.

She opened her mouth as if to savor the delicious corpse, but also to kiss it and worship every inch of it.

The author has something to say: Summary: Louis indirectly caused her death by giving the book to Audrey.Louis read by himself and skipped it.

The book was finally taken from the study by Lucas.

Today's hide-and-seek is that the mother is looking for three children, and only the last one found can survive.

It was supposed to be Lucas who survived, but Lin Xingtao crossed over, and Lucas was found before Lin Xingtao because of his accidental kindness.

As for why Mom would do that - that's suspense!
