The House of Everything I Created

Chapter 172 Sacrifice, clues (second update)

Lin Yi sent a message to Lao Wei, asking him to help him investigate the incident of a girl committing suicide and jumping off a building.

What he got was official information. Lao Wei was taking a gray path, and there might be other discoveries.

After transferring a sum of money to Lao Wei's account, Lin Yi had returned to Wanshiwu.

Sitting on his own sofa, Lin Yi began to carefully review the contents of these files.

Brandy was busy entertaining the guests, while absinthe was doing chores on the side.

There were not many customers in the morning. Most of them packed a sandwich and coffee and left.

I don't know when, absinthe floated behind Lin Yi in a gloomy tone, looking at the file in his hand.

He seems to be able to understand the words of the Red Lotus Realm, which seems strange.

Eerie words rang in Lin Yi's ears, "This is a ritual, I have seen it before."

"Ritual?" Lin Yi turned his head and looked at him, "What ceremony?"

"A ritual that renews life, or allows the dead to continue moving."

"Where have you seen it?" Lin Yi became interested and asked, looking at Absinthe strangely.

"Hehehe, I also saw a record by chance, in an ancient book."

Lin Yi's heart moved, "In this world where Absinthe is located, will there be rituals similar to those in the Red Lotus World?"

"Could it be that the world where Absinthe is located is the Red Lotus World?"

"But no, according to him, there are no two suns where he is."

"The sun is not red either."

"It's obviously a different world from the Red Lotus World."

"Different worlds have the same rituals? Is this something left by some force that can transcend worlds?"

Thinking of this, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel horrified.

If the conjecture is true, what kind of existence would this kind of force be?

Don't even think about it, he definitely can't afford to offend.

"Am I inheriting a hot potato?"

Looking at Absinthe, "If you know anything else, tell me."

Absinthe smiled strangely, "Okay, but I'm very interested in this matter and I want to get involved."

"Staying here is so boring, I'm going to get rusty."

Seeing the weird smile on Absinthe's face, Lin Yi thought for a moment, "If what you say is useful, I can let you participate."

Absinthe nodded and said in a gloomy voice, "This mysterious method is called "Life-Extending Sacrifice"."

"The origin cannot be studied. According to what I read in that book, the most important part of this sacrifice is to choose the right person."

"We must find the girl born on July 7th."

"Not one more day or one less day is acceptable."

"Then use the secret method of "Life Extension Sacrifice" to control these girls and make them jump off the building."

"Jumping off a building seems to be a ritual process, and to control a girl, you must get something of the girl, such as hair and nails."

"And the most important thing is how to find the girl on July 7th. This is the most difficult."

"If I were you, I would track it from these aspects."

Lin Yi nodded when he heard the words and looked at the absinthe, "I can't tell, you are quite smart."

Absinthe's strange face was full of distortion, "Of course I'm smart, otherwise how could I live so long?"

Lin Yi smiled when he heard this, "But you still stumbled here, so I'm smarter than you."

Seeing Lin Yi's half-smiling look, Absinthe's face froze, filled with boundless anger, "I will definitely regain my freedom."

The twisted face revealed a look of resentment, staring at Lin Yi.

"Okay, I don't know when you regained your freedom."

"Get to work quickly, I'll find someone to investigate first."

Ding dong

A message was sent to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi picked up his phone and looked at the message from Lao Wei, "Something has been sent to your inbox."

Clicking on the mailbox, Lin Yi looked at the documents inside. After a few minutes, his eyes lit up, "There is a clue."

Soon the day passed, and the storm of last night had calmed down. Human beings are always a race with greater forgetfulness than memory.

In front of the old building, Lin Yi and Absinthe arrived.

This is a seven-story old-fashioned residential complex. Most of the mottled paint on the exterior wall has peeled off, making it look like a dangerous building.

The doorman watched Lin Yi and Absinthe enter the community without stopping them. As long as it was not a big deal, no one would care about this kind of community.

Soon they arrived at the door of No. 5, Unit 3 of a building in the community.

This is the most important clue among the information provided by Old Wei.

Standing outside the door, Lin Yi knocked on the door.

dong dong dong

After a few minutes, there was no reply, and Lin Yi frowned.

Green light flashed in his eyes, his gaze penetrated the door and watched the changes inside.

He couldn't help but sigh, "We are late, this guy is dead."

Absinthe frowned when he heard this, "Really? I'll go take a look."

As he spoke, he walked towards the door and passed through it like a ghost.

The door was opened and Lin Yi walked in. Wearing gloves and gloves, he naturally would not leave any traces.

Behind the door is the living room, where a man is lying.

His face was pale and his lips were black. He had obviously been dead for a long time.

The man's face was full of fear, as if he had seen something terrible, and he seemed to be scared to death.

Absinthe looked at the man lying on the ground, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and turned to look at Lin Yi.

"I have a way to know what he saw last."

"What do you want?" Lin Yi looked at Absinthe's expression and knew that the other party had a request.

"I want you to allow me to have one day off every week in the future. I will not cause trouble for you."

Lin Yi thought for a while, "Half a day off."

Absinthe's face remained unchanged, "One day."

Lin Yi glanced at him and sneered, "Do you believe that I order you?"

Absinthe's face froze, and then he remembered that he was the other party's summoned creature. If he really ordered himself, he would not be able to resist.

Suddenly, resentful emotions rose in his heart, "Okay, half a day is half a day, one day I will be out of your control."

As he said that, Absinthe floated towards the corpse and entered the other party's body like a phantom.

The corpse trembled slightly, as if it was a corpse, and it trembled strangely, making people's scalps numb.

Suddenly he opened his eyes, looked at Lin Yi strangely, and smiled.

"Manager, do I look good?"

Lin Yi's face twitched when he heard this, "Do you want to be punished?"

"Absinthe"'s face fell, "Really, look at this delicate pale face, black lips, how beautiful, this is the beauty of death."

Lin Yi took a deep breath and resisted the urge to punch this guy to death.

The veins on his forehead were bulging, his fists were clenched, and he stared at Absinthe, "Do you want to die?"

Looking at the murderous Lin Yi, Absinthe didn't dare to say anything more and said, "I have seen his memory."
