disaster strikes

Chapter 552 Investigation of Former Residence
"Cough cough."

The Lavarona knight who was in charge of escorting them here stopped outside the gate of the courtyard.

With a dignified expression on his face, he gestured to the four of them: "This is Werther's former residence. After Viscount Werther's death, this place was set as a forbidden area by the lord, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. Please do yourselves, I will be in charge of guarding here. "

He was obviously unwilling to enter this house, as if he was worried about something.

Looking at the huge claw marks on the stone pillar of the gate, Chen Mo nodded and didn't say much.

Under the flickering firelight, the four walked through the vast garden in the dark.

After experiencing the doomsday reward contest in the world of shadow fragments, Chen Mo's psychological quality has improved significantly. He has always maintained his composure along the way. former residence.

The small white building looks a little creepy in the night.

Even if it had not been set as a forbidden area, with the deaths of Werther and Nelina, the people in the town were afraid of the legend of the revenge of the dead, and no longer dared to approach here.

The broken wooden door had obviously been violently damaged.

Squeak.

The friction sound of Chen Mo opening the wooden door was so clear in this empty room.

After entering the lobby.

Although the ground has been covered with a thick layer of dust, the four of them can still feel the magnificence of the place, with a faint luxury atmosphere.

"The poor flowers are all dead."

Ning Ying sighed.

"Boss, there is a wine cellar here, and there is a lot of wine in it!"

Chen Mo glanced at it for a while, but it's a pity that he is not addicted to alcohol. If the upside-down monk came here, he must be drunk all the time.

"It seems that Viscount Werther likes wine very much."

After walking around in the wine cellar, Chen Mo noticed the huge oil paintings hanging in the hall. The frame of each oil painting was inlaid with gold borders, which can be described as extremely luxurious.

The contents of these oil paintings all depict a cute little girl with a well-behaved face, and a beautiful and happy life.

From birth to six years old, oil paintings hung all over the walls.

Among them are the smiles before the milk bath, the peaceful nap under the gramophone, the prayers before a sumptuous dinner, the wishes under the birthday cake candles...

"It seems that this is Linda. With so many oil paintings, her father really loves her."

Chen Mo said with a sigh.

In this rural noble life, oil painting means that Chen Mo has not traveled through the WeChat circle of friends in the previous world. Experienced oil painters often only serve a few fixed clients.

"maybe."

It turned out to be the uncle with a cigar in the corner of his mouth who made a different opinion.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, the uncle took off the cigar from the corner of his mouth, and sprayed two columns of smoke from his nostrils, revealing the color of memories, and seemed a little sad.

"In the past, I didn't quite understand it, but as my life experience became richer and richer, I gradually understood that some people don't live for themselves. The more they lack something, the more they insist on using it The content is shown to everyone to make up for the low self-esteem... How should I put it, people who buy luxury goods, in addition to those who really need them, there are also people who really lack."

"You mean to say that this was deliberately shown by Werther?"

Although the Apocalypse did not respond directly to Chen Mo's words, it was regarded as acquiescing.

Tiantian couldn't help but rolled her eyes.

"Uncle, you are too dark."

Next.

Everyone came to the second floor.

After going through several rooms one by one, the four stayed in the pharmacy for a while.

"Why is the pharmacy on the second floor so close to the bedroom?"

Chen Mo looked puzzled and said: "Even if Linda's mother still insists on making medicines after marriage, the medicine shop should be set up on the first floor, otherwise patients still have to follow her to the second floor to see a doctor?"

When other people heard the words, they also felt that there was some truth.

Yan Ying frowned and said, "Unless, she is treating her family?"

The next few people searched the pharmacy for a while, and found a large bucket of prepared magic potion in the cabinet. After opening the lid, it emitted a faint fragrance.

This is also the only valuable item that the group found here.

Hint: Sleep Potion.

Quality: White.

Conditions of use: None.

Item attribute: It can make people enter a deep sleep state quickly.

Item introduction: This large bottle of sleeping potion is enough to bring down ten elephants, or make dozens of daily sleeping potions.

"Wow!"

Tiantian was surprised and said: "There are at least dozens of sleeping pills here, we have made a fortune, and it just happens to match with my gentle township!"

Different from Tiantian's excitement after discovering the sleeping potion, Chen Mo's eyes revealed a deeper puzzlement.

"Strawberry?"

He was a little surprised by the strawberry scent of the sleeping potion.

Baron Werther obviously doesn't suffer from insomnia, why is Nelina concocting so many sleeping potions? Does she have symptoms of insomnia herself?
"This cross of white quality!"

Hint: Bright Cross.

Quality: White.

Conditions of use: None.

Item Attributes: Deal 125 points of damage to evil attribute creatures at one time.

Item introduction: This is a cross that has been blessed by light.

"White quality exorcism props that specialize in evil attributes. If you don't need them, you can exchange them for some points. Let's put them in the public space first."

Chen Mo didn't think much about it, but Tiantian's big eyes rolled around, as if thinking of something.

"Could it be that Lango gave Linda's mother a gift?"

Chen Mo and Yanying rolled their eyes. Although it is not impossible to think about it carefully, it has nothing to do with them.

Then a group of people came to Linda's room.

Compared to other rooms, this place is surprisingly clean.

All the furniture is neatly placed, curtains, tablecloths, sofas, three months later, they are still extremely clean, as if someone carefully cleaned and arranged them every day.

Only the bed surface is slightly wrinkled.

Chen Mo frowned slightly.

He suffered from obsessive-compulsive disorder, so he wanted to smooth out the creases on the bed, but found that the creases seemed to be because people often slept in one position, and the sheets and mattresses were pressed down, making it difficult to smooth out. Became the only blemish in the room.

There was doubt in his eyes, but Chen Mo's attention was quickly attracted by the music on the phonograph.

"twinkle Twinkle Little Star……"

It was Ningying who turned on the phonograph, and the nursery rhymes recorded on the record came out.

This is probably the reason why the residents of the town said that Linda spent every day listening to the beautiful music of the gramophone, but in today's empty and quiet night environment, it is really difficult for the four of them to feel the warmth of it .

"Hey."

Chen Mo sat on the sofa and looked at Tian Tian, ​​Yan Ying, and the Apocalypse.

They found no clear clues.

"It looks like we're going to the Xuefengshan Sanatorium tomorrow. It's a sanatorium, but it's actually a complex of orphanages, nursing homes, and autistic patients. That's where Linda disappeared last."

talking.

Chen Mo frowned and said: "However, although we didn't get a clear clue this time, I always feel a little weird, maybe it's affected by uncle's pessimistic mood... I always feel that everything here, It's as if it has been carefully arranged and specially shown to us."

Tian Tian and Yan Ying looked at each other in blank dismay, while the Apocalypse took another deep puff of his cigar.

"Let's go."

At the end of the investigation, a large amount of sleeping potions and a white-quality exorcism item were harvested, and this time it was not in vain.

But right now.

Chen Mo suddenly thought of something. He instinctively wanted to smooth out the wrinkles of the sofa he had just sat on, but was surprised to find that there were no wrinkles on the sofa at all, and even the pillows were neatly arranged.

He slowly stretched out his right hand, trying to pick up the pillow.

Immediately afterwards, he discovered that the pillow was actually sewn onto the sofa, so it could always be kept in a very neat state.

"This?"

After Chen Mo stopped for a while, he suddenly thought of something.

He tried to move the sofa, but found that the sofa had been fixed to the floor, and he tried to pick up the plush toys, which were also fixed in place.

The whole room is like a window that is displayed once and for all after being carefully arranged!

……

the next day.

After receiving the news that the four members of the tour group insisted on going to the Xuefeng Mountain Sanatorium, Viscount Arizona sighed.

He met Chen Mo and others again.

"The sanatorium was completely deserted due to the attack of the snow monster. The town once sent people to rescue them, but there was no news in the end. Later, Earl Orff of Rhine City also sent a team of knights, but It is said that only one knight escaped from the sanatorium in the end, he was completely crazy, and he kept talking incomprehensible words, and no one in the town has been there since then.”

According to the time calculation, this should have happened about half a month after Linda entered the Xuefeng Mountain Sanatorium.

But because the sanatorium is isolated from the outside world, the actual time can only be known by calculation.

There was a look of awe on Alisan's face.

"If you insist on going, you must make adequate preparations. Pooh Town has already listed the Xuefeng Mountain Sanatorium and all surrounding areas as forbidden areas. No one else is allowed to approach. My greatest help to you is to It might just be turning a blind eye to it.”

Chen Mo smiled slightly upon hearing this.

He calmly took out two gold ornaments brought out from the dwarf's lair.

"Thank you, Lord Viscount, for your care."

Alisan's eyebrows raised slightly, showing a surprised smile.

He also kept the two gold ornaments away calmly, and revealed a new piece of information.

"Xuefeng Mountain is not close to the town. I heard that Laine City has organized a large-scale demon hunting team to carry out a large-scale raid on the surrounding monsters that are increasingly harassing the city. So you go down the mountain. When the time comes, you can go to Rhine City to rest, and... ahem, Pastor Lango, should be in St. Randy's Cathedral in Rhine City."

Faced with Viscount Arizona's meaningful reminder, Chen Mo looked at him and nodded and smiled.
