Chapter 1050 One hundred and seventeen. Black cat

   Earl's Manor is located in the south of Midnight City.

   Although the manor is far from the poor, it is not a rich area. According to the wealth and power of Earl Hunter, he instinctively built the manor in the prestigious area of ​​Midnight City.

  Squeak-

   The cellar door and the weight on it were slowly opened.

   A flamboyant iris flew out of the cellar, followed by a shadowy black cat.

  Lu Li and Claire appeared in an abandoned woodshed.

  Claire flapped her wings to avoid the area where the dust was rising, and Lu Li also skillfully jumped on the window sill where the thick dust had accumulated, swinging her tail to wipe the small window.

   The slightly clearer scenery outside the window made Lu Li know why Earl Hunter didn't do this.

  A mansion is located on the edge of a dark garden, and scarlet and coquettish blood flowers cover the flowerbeds on both sides of the path. Looking over the flowerbeds, over the dark mansion, over the dark garden with twisted branches reaching into the sky, you will be able to glimpse the magnificent castle standing at the foot of the alchemy tower.

   That is the real territory of Earl Hunter, and it is undoubtedly better than the "manor" to set off the identity of Earl Hunter.

   Approaching the Viscount was also more difficult than expected.

  Claire landed on Lu Li's back, the bird's claws stuck in the jet-black hair.

   Her mental projection surprised Lu Li - he thought Claire would turn into a lathe or some kind of weirdness that showed strength.

   "We should be at the head maid's estate."

   The head maid, the gardener, the head cook and the farmer guarded the viscount. In addition to the farmer's **** farm in the suburbs, the first three are all in the viscount's manor, and the chef is located in the castle.

   "We don't have much time. The two or three days for the players outside to clear the road is our best chance. Find a way to enter the castle, and we will meet at the southern spire."

  Claire left Lu Li's back and landed on the latch. It's just that the tiny orris, which is less than 1 pound, simply can't get the latch to open.

   Her head turned back, a wobbly dark tail was retracting into the cellar.

  Claire sensed the businessman's breath, and Lu Li jumped out shortly after, with a few eyeballs on his tail.

   His and Claire's clothing items have been handed over to the merchant for preservation, including Will Ken's parchment and Doomsday Book.

   and lost the 14 copies of humanity to protect Lu Li from being at the mercy of delirium with low sanity.

  Eyes were scattered by Lu Li and hid in the corner of the firewood room. At the same time, he wiped away the footprints of the petals behind him like a long tail broom, and then pulled the cellar door closed. After doing this, Lu Li stepped on the dust in his nose and came to the door, his long tail rolled up the latch.

  Claire landed on the ground and used brute force with her bird's beak to push open the crack of the worn wooden door that was rubbing against the floor.

   "Remember that the spires meet, and your tail is dirty." Claire left a reminder and flew to the sky, blending into the noon darkness.

   Before leaving, Lu Li looked around at the dusty firewood house. Soon the falling dust would make the firewood house unvisited again, and it was enough to fool the weirdness with vision as the main sense.

  Crawled through the crack of the door and left the woodshed, Lu Li bypassed the apparently tended flowerbed in the distance, and also bypassed the seemingly safe forest manor. Compared to the head maid who lived in the same position as the farmer, the Withered Garden, whose cursed title still worked, was Lu Li's natural ally.

   Avoid the withered bushes that hide the danger, and when you are about to step into the woods, a strange curling breeze emerges around you like a whirlpool.

  Lu Liyi felt something, and his glass ball-like pupils turned to the manor.

   On the second floor terrace of the mansion, a figure wearing a maid costume was seen.

   Lu Li had no way of knowing if he had been discovered, so he could only burrow into the woods like a cat.

When    entered the jungle, Lu Li felt the good news and the bad news: this forest is still alive, in another way. They won't tell the truth, they won't hurt Lu Li, and they sway their tentacle-like branches affectionately to welcome them.

  The bad news is that their alert range is farther than expected, and their airspace is 100 meters above the ground. If Claire didn't fly that high...

   But Claire is obviously very familiar with this place, so Lu Li doesn't have to worry about her.

   At this moment, the breeze felt on the edge of the woods blew by once again, and echoed in the lonely forest with anxious shouts.

   "Where are you, Remi? Don't run and wait for me..."

   Lu Li hoped that she was not the head maid, and that she was not shouting herself. But the echoing voice was indeed approaching, and the "friends" around him told him that it was the head maid and that she was looking for him.

   "Help me stop—"

   The calm words came to an abrupt end, without the help of the woods to stop them.

   This wood was enough to trap the head maid and even kill her.

   But their arrival will also reveal.

   With the information provided by the woods, Lu Li avoided the pursuit of the head maid, the meat pad fell silently, and the shadow-like sleeve-length black cat was flowing on the soil all over the roots of the Qiujie tree.

   On the edge of the woods on the west side, a shadowy black cat appeared quietly.

   Outside the woods is an empty, manicured flowerbed garden. Knee-high bushes can hide Lu Li's body.

   But before reaching that garden, a disgusting body made of different limbs blocked Lu Li. It stinks from its body, clutching the scissors for pruning branches.

   "Bug! Get away from my family!"

   A screeching gust of wind suddenly blew past him, and the loathsome body in front of him seemed to have been cut by an invisible blade, smashed into pieces of flesh and sprinkled with blood.

  The gentle breeze lifted Lu Li up, and was hugged tightly by the figure who rushed behind him.

   Lu Li heard the sound of the wind coming from the cold body that was close at hand, and the nostalgic weeping and whispering sounded.

   "Remi... I finally found you..."

  …

  The condensed wind dissipated, and the head maid who called Lu Li as "Leimi" landed on the terrace of the mansion, approached the bedroom, and put him down gently.

   "This is our new home, Remi."

   The head maid stood behind Lu Li, her body covered with obscure wind noises wrapped in layers of bandages, and covered with a complicated black and white maid skirt.

   After confirming that he would not be hurt, Lu Li quietly observed the bedroom in front of him.

This is like an ordinary girl's room, with a single tulle curtain covering the middle bed, brightly colored books on the bookshelf, and photo frames on the dresser: inside is a girl with double ponytails holding a black cat, smiling brightly Faded photo.

  The head maid pursued Lu Li all the way, without harm, the reason for bringing him back really emerged.

   She mistook Lu Li as a former pet, or "family".

  From the fourth level, some strange lucky force has been watching over him.

  The **** farmland gave in because of himself; the secret passage leading straight to the destination; Claire who prepared the alienation potion in advance; the intimacy of the woods outside the castle, and the alienated black cat was mistaken by the head maid as her pet.

   As if fate pushed the landing away

   This kind of feeling is not good-because Lu Li thought of the rope of seance.

   "Keep the investigator's prudence and look at everyone around you objectively, including me."

  Will Ken's reminder sounded in his mind, and was blown away by the soft wind in his ears.

   "Remi, are you here to find me?"
