In the silent basement, Mr. M just stood behind the priest, and when the priest didn't know, he looked at him with a kind of longing and dependent eyes, his eyes seemed to be glued by a stick of honey live.

He actually had something to say and wanted to tell the other party that you finally came back here, but after hesitation, he chose to remain silent, just like hiding his face under a bandage and hiding everything else.

"You can guess." M said softly.

The priest stood there and looked up, observing every detail of the painting, wishing to see every delicate brushstroke, as if he wanted to blend in and become a member of the painting.

One-half of the painting, a big family of six.

As if grabbing a drop from the ocean, grabbing a star in the vast galaxy, at a certain moment, it was finally a blessing to the soul, as if the gods gently put the answer into his mind.

"This family...is there another person?"

When he said these words, for some reason, Yu Yuan felt a chill behind his back, as if he had placed six plates neatly on the table and then turned his head, he saw that there was an extra plate out of thin air.

It was clearly the tone of the question, but he also had the answer in his heart.

This painting is exactly half, and the center of the family—the new parents who should be in the center of the whole picture, only half of the mother's portrait remains.

If it is really four children and a pair of parents, then according to the overall composition, isn't it the most appropriate to divide the painting into three people in each half? In the destroyed half, wouldn't it look very empty if it was just two people?

The most reasonable explanation is that there are three members in this family.

Mr. M, who was behind him, kept silent at the right time, as if tacitly acknowledging his opinion.

Yu Yuan's brain was running at a high speed, and many ideas had undergone new changes. If there are seven people, it can fill the previous vacancy-why does the place where the other five players are located corresponds to a ghost, but the medical hall where Hei Changzhi is located does not correspond to anyone, and Alice's ghost was captured in the manor found.

There were only six corpses after the fire, but there were seven people in this family, and the surrounding residents also said that there were only six people in the Duke's family. Does this mean that the mysterious "seventh person" is the real murderer? This person destroyed this home and finally escaped?

This may be the end, Yu Yuan always felt that both the mother and the child might not have the ability to kill the Duke, but if there really is a mysterious seventh person, and this person has been Hidden by the Anderson family, then the ability of this person is unknown, maybe he can easily kill the Duke.

The train of thought can only stop at this place temporarily, and he has no more time to go further. The priest turned around and looked at Mr. M with a complicated expression, "Why did you remind me of this, and what do you know?"

Until now, it was hard for him to believe that Mr. M was just an ordinary ghost. He must have some kind of identity, and he was most likely related to the Anderson family.

"Did you witness what happened to the Andersons? Or..."

To be honest, if he hadn't guessed that the seventh man should not be dead, he would have doubted whether Mr. M was the seventh man.

Facing the priest's questioning, M shook his head and said softly, "It's not important."

The entire dark basement seemed to be filled with a silent atmosphere, as if dense clouds had gathered here. Finally, M said again: "What you're looking for is in the wine barrels in the basement."

[smelling a bit of cruelty]

[Fuck, M is not a mediocre passerby? ? ? 】

[I thought he was just attracted to the little priest]

[Grass, I'm starting to get scared]

[You guys do it quickly, I'm so panicked, in case I can't do it in the future]

In the barrel... but how would he know!

Yu Yuan immediately went up and grabbed Mr. M and questioned him, this person, no, this ghost obviously knows a lot of things, but Mr. M was a little abnormal tonight, reacting one step faster, and immediately disappeared from the mirror.

There is actually such an operation as running.

【? ? ? M good dog]

【#M can't#】

【#The Pope#】

[Fart, they can't do it, I can do it! 】

The unsuccessful priest had to give up, and instead, according to what Mr. M said, he found a pile of wine barrels in the deep corner of the basement. He pushed one after another to weigh the weight, and finally, in one of the wine barrels I heard something wrong before, except that there was liquid sloshing inside, there seemed to be something solid hitting the inner wall of the wooden barrel during the push.

He opened the seal and took a look inside, and this look was enough for him to look at the head inside. The head left by Duke Anderson seems to be dead, and seems to be forgotten here, lying quietly in the little wine left in this barrel of wine.

What Mr. M said is actually true.

[Grass, the first point of view scared me to death again]

[Baby, promise me to give advance notice next time?]

[I look at the heads with the priest, we post the stickers]

The basement was untouched by the fire, and before the fire broke out, someone cut off the duke's head and hid it here, in one of the barrels of wine.

After all, it is impossible to take out the head and carry it in his own hands. The wine barrel is not too big, so Yu Yuan simply picked it up by the rope, but when he passed the painting, he couldn't help but stop. .

Unexpectedly, he put his hand on the portrait and stroked it lightly, wanting to see what other details could be studied. And just at this moment, through a new angle he accidentally discovered, he discovered that there seemed to be some traces behind the half of Madam's face.

Without any hesitation, the priest dismantled half of the portrait and put it on the ground, and the scene on the wall finally revealed the whole picture - there is a complete circle painted here!

In the center of the circle, Yu Yuan had seen it before in the caravan area. The caravan next to the sign of the stars and the moon was painted with a pattern that symbolized the "Abyss". At that time, Yu Yuan himself complained about it, but there were actually people there. Take "seafood" as your belief.

Lulu's words seemed to echo in her ears, "Mrs. Anderson believes in astrology and knows many warlocks there, but some of them even promote cults and evil gods..."

It is self-evident who wrote the circle behind the portrait - Mrs. Anderson has become so fanatical about her beliefs.

Did her faith really help her, did she really summon the evil god?

Yu Yuan had doubted who of the family members had the ability to kill the duke. After all, the duke was a knight. With the strength of an untrained woman, it should not be easy to kill someone with an axe, and he still used an axe. Decapitation is a modus operandi, and as far as he knows, the two young masters are just adults, and they are both younger than Mary, so they may not really have the ability to kill their father.

The reason why he is most suspicious of this "seventh person" is because if it is a man with certain training and a certain age, it may be possible to kill the duke in one go, but the information about the seventh person is still a mystery. .

But now that the evil god's magic circle has appeared again, could it be that Mrs. Anderson really made a wish to the evil **** to successfully kill the duke?

In that visit record, Master Xingyue said more than once that "you can help this family" and "you have gained the power to help you". When they saw this, they all thought that these were just psychological comforts given by astrologers to Mrs. Anderson. But what if astrologers really have such a wide range of business, not only to give people divination, but also to come into contact with more mysterious powers?

If so, is Mrs Anderson still the most likely murderer?

Yu Yuan couldn't help looking at the pile of wine barrels in the corner, and the one with the head hidden under his feet. Because of his previous actions of flipping the wine barrels, there was still a faint aroma of wine wafting in the basement.

When a person commits a murder and takes off the other person's head and puts it in a place, there should be a reason, whether the wine barrel will represent the identity of Lily, the wine saleswoman, and the head is hidden here It also shows the anger of the murderer?

However, just as Yu Yuan stood in the same place and pondered all of this for a while, his fingers brushed the traces of the evil god's magic circle, but because the pain was lowered, he didn't notice that he had been stabbed by the wooden thorns on the wine barrel before.

A drop of bright red blood was smeared on the magic circle like this, as if adding a dazzling color and filling in a little blank.

Before the priest reacted, the magic circle left on the wall suddenly radiated light as if it had been ignited, but in the blink of an eye, the priest watched helplessly as kelp-like tentacles stretched out on the wall, waiting for him to have it. When he escaped from here, he wrapped his whole body inside and swallowed it, like a black hole that devoured people, and it was as quiet as a deep sea, and there was no one in the basement.

The priest's eyes were bleak.

[Fuck, the angle of view is dark! 】

【Don't die? ? ? Is this eliminated? ? ? 】

【Ah, ah, don't stop! If M hadn't left before TAT]

【Rise up, Father】

On the other side, Chenxing and Lulu also arrived at the Knights early in the morning. They started from here and went all the way to the cemetery in the suburbs. They went back and forth for a long time, hoping to meet the dead knight tonight. Occasionally encounter some wandering ghosts on the road, although it is a bit tricky, but after all, Chen Xing is the strongest fighting force among them, and it is solved smoothly.

When they arrived at the cemetery, Lulu suddenly had an idea.

"Morning Star, do you think we can go to the cemetery where Anderson's family is buried?"

They hadn't thought about this before, but now that they're passing by, they might be able to gain something.

The story of Anderson's family caused a lot of shock to the city, and it was recently buried, and the family of six was gone, and the whole thing spread widely. Chen Xing, who had kept an eye on the Knights to inquire about news before, also knew where the cemetery was, so he took Lulu there.

There is only an approximate range, and the specifics have to be found by two people. The two of them avoided a lot of trouble by relying on Morningstar's own light buff. They walked in the cemetery and looked at tombstones one by one. If they didn't know, they thought they were here to rob the tomb, and in the end, they finally found the tombstone.

Mary Anderson.

This is the first tombstone.

Looking down one by one, Alice, Mrs Anderson, Duke, Morrison, six tombstones are here, everything seems to be normal, but on one of the tombstones...

"Tusi's name was deliberately erased," Lulu pointed to the marks on the sixth tombstone, "There is only Anderson left here, and his name is gone."

That's true, while the other five tombstones are 100% normal.

"Did someone do it casually, or is this also a hint?" Chen Xing didn't think about the result for a while, so he could only write down this matter and prepare it and tell Hei Changzhi and Yu Yuan.

At this moment, he heard the sound of horseshoes outside the cemetery not far away.

The current paladin, Morning Star, turned his head and saw a tall figure sitting on a ghost horse on the dirt road. It was almost as transparent as glass, and it radiated bright blue light. ".

And this knight on a horse, the position of the armor above the neck is empty.

- The dead knight.

That is, the Duke Anderson during his lifetime.

Lulu also turned her head, seeing this scene, her eyes widened in fear. It's one thing to just listen to the description, it's another thing to have such a headless ghost appearing in front of him, and now he has to see when Bai Cai and Yu Yuan will bring their heads back.

"I'm coming." Chen Xing couldn't help but put his hand on the sword and pulled it out, ready to fight.

Not far away, the ghost horse under the knight's crotch also kicked its hooves, ready to go, and it was about to rush out. Chen Xing stared at each other, even though the other party had no head, they, who were also knights, seemed to be looking at each other, as if they were polite before a duel.

Morning Star said, "Come on."

It feels sticky and sticky, as if being swallowed into a pocket covered with honey, as if swallowed by a pair of shells into the wet inside, or entangled by a snail. At a certain moment, Yu Yuan actually felt a little suffocated.

But this feeling quickly receded like a tide. When he felt as if he was stranded on the beach, the moment he was about to open his eyes, a very familiar and mocking voice sounded at the same time.

"Dear, long time no see."

This sound, and the pattern in the center of the circle that symbolizes the "Abyss"...

Yu Yuan suddenly sat up straight, "Louis?!"

In front of this mass of black mist that resembles a human shape, who else could it be if it wasn't Louis.

After opening his eyes, Yu Yuan realized that the place he was in seemed to be a hole torn open in the darkness, everything was darkness, only a faint light burned in the middle of the place where he was, illuminating him and the opposite. louis.

"Who do you want to see this time?" Louie said with a smile, "You might like this."

In the blink of an eye, he turned into Pope Hoy Ban, as skilled as he had been disguised as the Pope's messenger.

【My mother who is this? ! 】

[Fuck, I almost thought the priest was eliminated]

【What new plot is this triggered? 】

[Obviously it's the evil god, why do you get along like a priest's ex-boyfriend]

【Learn how the priest speaks】

["Don't make up for your black hole brains, I don't even have a current boyfriend!"]

[Understood, then admit it is bent]

Yu Yuan was so frightened that he almost bit his tongue. He knew that the world view inside the game was the same, and Sutton Kingdom was not even far from the Papal Kingdom, but he didn't expect Louis to appear here, and Mrs. Anderson believed in " "Evil God" happened to be the other party?

The "Pope" smiled and stared at the priest's clothes. "My dear, I just thought you had many identities. I didn't expect you to become a priest now after you disappeared."

Be a fart.

Ignoring other questions for the time being, Yu Yuan just asked excitedly, "Are you related to the Anderson family? Did you provide Mrs. Anderson with the power to kill the Duke?"

"Ah, you said this, no wonder you triggered the magic circle." Louis smiled, "It's not a big deal for 'Abyss' to be worshipped by some humans, right? The lady you mentioned is just one of the humans who chose to believe in us."

Going further, Yu Yuan doubted that Louis would say, "I think I'm similar to the Pope."

"You helped her kill her duke husband?" Yu Yuan sat on the ground.

If it was really just a pampered aristocratic lady like Mrs. Anderson, she would never have the ability to chop off people's heads with an axe, but if astrology was her foreshadowing, the patterns that appeared on the caravan also pointed to "the abyss." Evil God", and she really "you will get help from the mystery" as Master Xingyue said, then everything will be solved.

"I didn't do anything for her." Louis seemed indifferent. "Choose to believe in the 'Abyss', and she can get the power from monsters. As for what she will do, it is her own will."

This city is located in the center of the Papal State, at the foot of the Pope. The people here wholeheartedly believe in the God of Light, and the noble Pope. Even Yu Yuan, as a priest, feels that he is often respected by passers-by. But here, some people will finally be swayed by the thoughts growing in their hearts, and choose to go to the embrace of the "evil god", thinking that the power of monsters can help them, for example, Mrs. Anderson.

In this intricate family of secrets, there was finally a clear line, and Mrs. Anderson finally got help as she wished, and it should be precisely with this axe that Duke Anderson's head was cut off.

The head was hidden in the wine barrel, and there was even wine left in it. Does it mean that the lady's betrayal and hatred of the Duke is so deep - if the Duke really chooses "wine" to be with the wine saleswoman, he will die here it is.

Great irony.

"Are you satisfied with my answer? I told you everything," Louie said. "So my dear Edith, should I call you 'Clay' now? Should you also explain a little— Where did you go after disappearing from the sea?"

In this dark space, he said again, "I've been looking for someone for a long time, or rather, a cat?"

[smelling adultery]

[Wow, what is the origin of the little priest]

[The tester was originally in charge of testing the relationship with the NPC, right?]

【cat? what cat? rwkk! 】

Unexpectedly, he could still mention this, Yu Yuan was left speechless for a while, and he said bravely, "Don't mention this to me, it has nothing to do with me."

He just pretended to be the queen for a while, and didn't care about the aftermath.

"Okay." Louis, who was wearing the Pope's fake face, pretended to be helpless, "But now you seem to have found a new 'owner' to keep a cat. As the previous one, I'm not very happy—"

"My dear, why don't you just turn into a cat in front of your Pope today?" Louis' eyes were bright, lest the world be in chaos, "This way you won't be able to touch anyone, try it— Let's see if your 'new master' can recognize you this time?"

Yu Yuan: "???"

"What are you making a mess!"
