Demon Hunter and His Hut
Chapter 170: Forty-eight
, The fastest update to the latest chapters of the Demon Hunter and his cabin!
After leaving the University of Bordeaux, Roger stood at the door and looked back at this century-old institution. Inexplicably, Dickinson's strange gaze seemed to have been hanging over him.
"What a weird guy."
This Dickinson's attitude towards him is a bit strange, but now Roger can't tell whether it is malicious or good intentions. He just feels abnormal instinctively and wants to stay away from the other party.
Drive directly to the Bordeaux Library, which contains a lot of information, and it is also convenient for him to check the deficiencies.
The cover of the book is black goatskin, and the content inside is almost handwritten, with a few briefings occasionally attached.
It can be seen that Dickinson is indeed a professor on the issue of historical research, and the entire book records content related to the Stuart family.
Roger found a corner with no one, and read it patiently.
On the first page of the book, a hand-painted daffodil in full bloom, most of the daffodils are six petals, but the drawing here is eight petals.
The black notes dignified the edge of the daffodils, and at first glance it felt a bit strange.
In the Stuart family, the number 8 has a special meaning.
On Shuixian Street, No. 8 No. 18, No. 28, these numbers every 8 have their own special meanings.
No. 8 Narcissus Street is the most prosperous area on the street, and it is also the residence of the Stuart family.
As for the meaning of the subsequent numbers, Dickinson did not record it in the books.
The black 8, like a twisted snake.
Then Roger flipped through the structural drawing of Narcissus Street built by the Stuart family.
From beginning to end, the numbering ends at 43, and the following numbers are gone.
"48 Shuixian Street?"
"Is there something wrong with Anna's memory?"
"She actually said 43, or some other number?"
Roger is not very sure about this. After all, nearly 100 years have passed. Many of the records of the Stuart family in the entire book are based on speculation, and there are not many that can be truly determined.
Even Roger did not find Anna's name in the family registry.
Just when Roger was at a loss, he suddenly noticed the patterns formed by the holes dug in the wall at the back of the house.
Rotating the pattern in his hand and adjusting the angle little by little, Roger's eyes suddenly lit up.
"4 and 8."
The holes excavated in the wall seem to be disorderly, but in fact there are only 4 and 8 in the inner and outer circles.
After thinking about it carefully, Roger thought about what he saw in the misty world, and found that it could also correspond to the law in front of him.
"Isn't the so-called No. 48 Narcissus Street built on Narcissus Street?"
"Although named after No. 48, it was actually built in another place?"
There was a flash of inspiration in his mind.
For a family, in most cases it will be built in an indispensable place far away from the family’s residence, one of which is the most important.
That is the family cemetery!
"The so-called No. 48 Shuixian Street, isn't it a house at all, but a cemetery?!"
Roger guessed.
After repeated deliberation, he found that his guess was very likely to be true.
Thinking of this, he began to flip through the relevant information quickly.
"It's really a strange family. The place where ordinary people live is built like a tomb, but the family tomb is named after the number of a normal house and then built in other places."
Roger looked through it, and it took him several hours to find a clue in an inconspicuous message.
"The family cemetery of the Stuart family at that time was not built in Bordeaux, but was placed in the current marsh town!"
"At the same time, their cemetery did not adopt a hanging coffin, but chose a burial according to the tradition of Injman!"
"This is weird!"
Roger frowned.
When a foreign nobleman built his house, he adopted a local traditional tomb structure, as if he purposely let the living people live in the dead’s room.
But in the family cemetery, they carried out the burial according to the tradition, but the place of choice was the swamp town with the most serious underground water.
It's like deliberately immersing the corpses of family members in the swamp, completing some untold secrets.
Following this clue, Roger inquired about some official records of that year. In the directory, it was impressively recorded: Cemetery No. 48.
"It should be like this!"
Roger clenched his fists in excitement, he felt that he was very close to the truth of the matter.
There was obviously a big problem with Anna's memory. She couldn't remember the family name and origin, but she remembered Shuixian Street and No. 48, so she said this address.
But why did she say that her family is not far from nearby?
In the mountains near Bay Town, as far as Roger knows, there is no so-called family. Anna was buried in Bay Town, but their family cemetery was placed in Marsh Town.
"strange."
It seems that the clues have been sorted out, but Roger has more doubts.
Without further ado, after finding the clue, Roger drove directly to Marsh Town.
The directory also records the address of the cemetery that year, but it has been so long, and I don’t know if the cemetery was moved when the Stuart family left.
Or, the cemetery has been completely buried in the changes of history.
By the time Roger came to Marsh Town, it was already afternoon, and he had some fast food on the street.
The address recorded in the directory is still left over nearly a hundred years ago. After investigation, the original cemetery has been transformed, but now it has been transformed and renovated into a mental hospital.
Roger did not expect that he would come to this place again after the Hannum incident.
Marsh Town Mental Hospital.
At the door, a request was made to meet with Dr. Rooney. Before long the door opened, Roger drove the car into the hospital, and Rooney took the initiative to stand at the door to meet him.
The middle-aged doctor looked a little more haggard than when he saw him last time, but when he saw Roger, he still smiled a little.
"How can I help?"
Roger is a little strange about Rooney's enthusiasm.
"Thank you and that gentleman for your help."
Rooney's attitude was even respectful.
"Something happened recently that gave me a new understanding of the world. The doll I received not long ago may hide terrible malice."
"If it weren't for you and another gentleman..."
Obviously, Rooney should have been exposed to some extraordinary events recently, so he had some speculations about the last visit between him and Henrik.
But this is better~lightnovelpub.net~ Roger nodded and said, then he explained his intentions.
"Cemetery?"
Rooney frowned.
"I seem to vaguely remember that there was such a thing."
"Come with me and I will help you look up the information. This area is very large, and so many years have passed. Even if the cemetery really exists, I am afraid that nothing will remain."
Rooney was regarded as the important person in charge of this mental hospital, and brought Roger to the reference room.
He flipped through the materials in the dust, and finally pulled out a drawing.
"It should be this!"
Pass the drawing in his hand to Roger.
"See if it's what you want."
Turning over the drawing, Roger's eyes narrowed slightly.
