If Pons. Bene entered Naroka's house to take away her hair and nails, which means that Naroka is likely to die from the murder of a relative, because Naroka has a good reputation, is the pillar of the whole family, and is physically and mentally healthy, and is unlikely to commit suicide...... Lumian quickly had a series of speculations.
Jonaroka really died of murder by a relative, so what was the reason?
Seeing that his brother was lost in thought and did not speak for a while, Aurore thought that he was frightened by "people turning into sheep" and "someone in the Berry family may die of murder", so he comforted him softly:
"Although the matter is serious, it does not affect us yet.
"It seems that I have to reflect, always forbidding you from contact with real occult knowledge can easily make you fear and panic when encountering similar things, not knowing what to do, well, in this world, in recent years, the frequency of extraordinary events is getting higher and higher, and I can't be by your side all the time, you will always grow up, you will always have your own life......"
I have never heard of having to leave my family when I grow up...... Lumian retorted in his heart.
He could feel that because of the fact that people turned into sheep, Aurore's attitude towards his exposure to occult knowledge had loosened.
If you work harder, you can confess directly to her that I have become an extraordinary person...... Before Lumian could speak, Aurore had already made a decision:
"You go pack your bags now, we will leave Kordu immediately with the invitation of "Novel Weekly".
"It's so lucky, such a telegram came at a critical moment, so that we could leave openly without being suspected by anyone.
"Well, I will tell you some real occult knowledge when no one is on the journey, but don't even think about becoming an extraordinary person, it's too dangerous."
It wasn't luck, it was a telegram taken after discovering the problem, and I only received a call back after waiting until this cycle...... Lumian muttered silently, while relieving that his sister was still the decisive person.
Although he was not optimistic that his siblings would leave Kordu Village smoothly, or break out of the cycle, he had to give it a try.
"Uh, those three sheep, three people, won't be saved?" Lumian asked tentatively.
Aurore shook her head:
"This may trigger us and Pierre. Berry, and I'm not sure how strong he is, or how many helpers he has, it's too dangerous to blindly save people.
"Let the officials come, this is their responsibility, well, when we arrive in Dariège, buy the steam train tickets, and send an anonymous letter to the officials and let them deal with it."
"But what if they don't believe it?" Lumian deliberately asked.
Aurore smiled:
"In the occult, you are indeed illiterate.
"We described the matter of turning people into sheep in the letter, and they would naturally find professionals to divine, and even if they didn't get any detailed revelations, they would find that there was something wrong with Kordu."
"I understand." Lumian wasted no more time and went upstairs to pack his luggage.
Not long after, the siblings each took a brown suitcase and came down.
Aurore looked out the door and said:
"Now go to Madame Pualis, borrow a carriage from her, and try to reach Darij as soon as possible."
From the village of Kordu to Liège, ordinary people have to walk for an afternoon, and Lumian, as a "hunter", definitely doesn't need it, but in Auror's eyes, he is not an extraordinary person.
After hesitating whether to take the opportunity to confess to his sister, and thinking that it was basically impossible to escape from Cordu Village, it was better to take the opportunity to go to Mrs. Puaris's house to look for clues, Lumian said "hmm":
"Okay."
He stretched out his hand, took her suitcase from his sister, and walked towards the door with two of them.
Aurore nodded with satisfaction and relief at first, and then said with a slight sense of confusion:
"You've become stronger, it's so easy."
She subconsciously raised her right hand and rubbed the sides of her eyes, but at this time Lumian had already gone out, so she had to give up trying and quickly follow.
On the way to the administrative official's residence, many villagers saw Aurore going out with a suitcase and curiously inquired about the situation.
Auror was very calm about this for a good reason.
On the other hand, Lumian made up seven or eight stories to deal with different villagers along the way.
What Aurore got the Order of Honor of Intis and is going to Trier to receive honors, what he was specially recruited by the Trier Higher Normal College, he can sign up now, what Aurore is trading in stocks and bankruptcy, creditors are about to come to the door, so they can only quickly flee to other places, and the villagers who heard nothing were stunned.
Thanks to Lumian's reputation, they all chose not to believe after coming to their senses.
Not long after, the siblings came to the black building converted from an ancient castle.
Looking up at the two towers towering high, Lumian smiled:
"I don't know what's in there, Aurore, have you ever been in?"
"How can I wander around other people's houses?" Aurore rolled his brother's eyes.
Lumian muttered in a low voice:
"I thought Madame Pualis would invite you to visit the castle, don't they like to show guests around their big house and precious collection?"
"What's so good about visiting......" Aurore's voice became lower and lower, because she thought that this would be of great help to her description of the castle in her work, "Hey, I'll talk about it later, and I don't know if I can go back to Kordu."
She then led Lumian through the purple and red garden to the gate of the castle.
After walking a few steps, Aurore slowed down, looked left and right a few times, and said suspiciously:
"The flowers in this garden bloom very early......"
Kordu Village is on the mountain, with plateau grasslands nearby, and the first wave of spring flowers will not be ushered in until mid-to-late April in normal season.
"Maybe Madame Puaris's gardener has a special method." Lumian thought that the lady was an extraordinary person with an abnormal path, and suspected that it was related to some extraordinary phenomenon, but he couldn't say so.
Aurore just sighed casually, without thinking too much, and arrived at the castle with Lumian and received a warm welcome from Madame Puaris.
The lady was wearing a blue tunic dress today, still wearing the diamond necklace inlaid with gold on her chest, and her long brown hair was half pulled up and half hung down, looking younger than usual.
She sat on the single sofa in the small living room, listened quietly to Aurore's request, and said with a light smile:
"No need to be so polite, we are friends."
Scold...... Lumian mocked in his heart.
How can you blindly introduce a marriage partner to a friend?
As soon as he finished his silent mockery, he saw Madame Pualis looking at him, her bright brown eyes with a smile like water.
Lumian suddenly recalled the conversation with Mrs. Pualis in the last loop, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
"Okay." Aurore looked helpless.
Every time she borrowed a carriage, she offered to pay for it, but Madame Pualis necessarily refused, so she usually brought the lady some gifts that were not expensive but not cheap on the way back, and at the same time gave the coachman a little tip.
While waiting for the coachman to prepare, Mrs. Pualis invited the siblings to taste the desserts made by their chef.
Lumian tasted a muffin, looked around and said:
"Where's Mr. Lund?"
Louis. Lund was the butler of the administrator Beost and followed him from Daliege to the village of Kordu.
Lumian had the handle to have an affair with a woman in the village and quietly sell some of the castle's collections, so he got the news that Madame Pualis was the mistress of the priest of the parish.
What happened to happen to the priest and Mrs. Pualis having an affair in the church, it was all a lie to foreigners!
At this time, Lumian looked for Louis. Lund wanted to scold him, saying, "You are a sow, why don't you tell me that Mrs. Pualis is a wizard?"
Mrs. Pualis said:
"Louis is sick and resting in his room."
Fall ill? Lumian inexplicably felt that there might be something wrong with this.
While his sister was chatting with Mrs. Puaris, he made an excuse to go to the bathroom, left the small living room, and went straight to the staircase.
The castle was huge, and the administrator and his wife didn't bring many servants, and it seemed empty everywhere, and echoes could even be heard when walking in some places, which gave Lumian better external conditions to sneak in.
Relying on his powerful senses, he simply avoided a male servant and a maid, and came to the second floor with light steps, and found Louis. Lund's room.
He didn't rush to knock on the door, turned his head sideways, and pressed his ear to the board.
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
……
There were screams of pain belonging to men in the room.
Really sick? Sounds quite serious...... Lumian thought for a moment, walked to the side, and opened the door to the other servants—the administrator Beost and Madame Prias lived on the third floor.
After flashing into the room, he gently closed the wooden door, took a few steps to the other side, and pushed open the glass window.
Lumian looked down and saw that no one was there, so he immediately stretched out his hands, turned out lightly, and "hung" on the outer wall of the castle.
Immediately afterwards, he leaped slightly, like a wild cat, and fell silently to the butler Louis. On the windowsill of Lund.
Then, Lumian stood on the edge of the glass window, turned his body, and quietly looked into the room.
He saw Louis. Lund was lying naked on the bed, his stomach bulging high, giving people the feeling that it would burst at any moment.
Seeing that the housekeeper's black hair was all wet with sweat and his face was full of pain, and he heard him cry out tragically from time to time, Lumian couldn't help but frown:
What is this disease?
It looks very scary, the belly can bulge so big......
At this time, Louis. There was also a woman in her forties standing next to Lund's bed.
She has brown hair and brown eyes, a good look, few wrinkles, and a long gray and white dress, and she is excitedly looking at Louis. Lund shouted:
"It's coming soon, it's coming soon."
What's coming soon? As soon as Lumian flashed such a thought, he heard a scream and saw Louis. Lund's stomach was pushed up by something somewhere.
Almost in the blink of an eye, it was broken, Louis. Lund's stomach was bursting!
A bloody little hand reached out.
"Give birth! I gave birth!" The woman cried out with joy.
She then leaned down and looked at Louis. Lund hugged a crumpled, dirty, and bloody baby from his stomach.
Lumian was stunned:
「……」
