The son-in-law of Mr. Hachishaku

Chapter 55 The Visitor at Night

"Are you still going this late?"

Aqina was pulled up from the sofa reluctantly by Li Ang, and kept complaining: "Lack of sleep is a taboo for a lady. Not only will the skin deteriorate, but it will also accelerate aging."

Li Ang was not interested in listening to the lady's maintenance tips and forced her out of the castle.

The weather is very good tonight, the sky is full of stars, and the cold moonlight covers the entire valley.

The dutiful vampire servant has parked the harnessed carriage at the door.

By the way, due to the evil reputation of the lady and her daughter, the plan to replace these slaves with ordinary people was temporarily shelved because no one dared to come to the castle to apply for jobs.

And this situation is expected to continue for a long time.
Amidst the crack of the whip of the driving slave, the carriage slowly advanced, carrying the two people to their destination.

Behind the car were more than a dozen servants with weapons in their hands, and a vampire banshee with bat wings was in charge of guarding in the air, with great fanfare and momentum.

It seems that after experiencing the bloody wedding, Aqina left sequelae, and her acting style was much more cautious than before. Almost every time she travels, she arranges a large group of people to follow her.

Li Ang, who was the instigator, didn't know about it, and thought that the mistress of the Di family was just going out like this.

The carriage consciously bypassed the village and came to the altar of the Mother Goddess in the center of the valley.

There are four doors hanging with the Black Wings logo around the altar, each door representing a family.

Li Ang helped his wife, who was handicapped due to her size, to get out of the carriage, and opened the north door with the key she gave her.

Usually the gate is locked and the villagers are prohibited from passing through, but the major families are not affected.

The carriage behind them could not pass, so the slaves waited in place while Leon and Archina walked to the Benevento family's old house.

Not long after walking along the narrow mountain road, the terrain opened up and a forest appeared in front of us.

This forest is very strange, like entering the set of a thriller. The environment suddenly becomes dark, and the unpleasant cries of crows can be heard one after another.The tree trunks are twisted and abrupt, and the shrubs are crisscrossed.Every few steps, several ancient tombstones appear on the ground.

Countless wooden dolls hang on the tree trunks as if they were hanged.

Ashy mist spread everywhere, and there was a strange sweetness in the air.

Aqina pushed the doll away from her head and slapped her nose in disgust: "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have come to this hellish place."

Li Ang could only apologize with a smile: "Yes, it's all my fault, for making you wronged, my dear madam."

"It's not too bad." Aqina snorted arrogantly: "Remember to make it up to me in the future."

"Make up, make up for you every day!" Li Ang dragged her through the woods, and then across a suspension bridge, the surrounding fog still didn't dissipate, but became thicker.

"After passing this cemetery, we're almost there." Aqina pushed open the wrought iron gate in front of her and explained to Li Ang.

This used to be the village's public cemetery. In addition to tombstones scattered everywhere, there are also several abandoned houses.

And in the depths of the cemetery, there is a huge circular flower bed, which is densely planted with a strange plant, which is full of vitality and greenness even in winter, and emits a dim yellow light.

These glowing plants have essentially been infested with mold, and the pollen is highly hallucinogenic and the source of the sweetness in the mist.

Donna uses them to kill the intruders and defend Miranda's laboratory while protecting herself.

It's just that it's hard for pollen to have too much impact on mutants of the level of Leon and Aqina, not to mention that they consciously reduced inhalation from the beginning.

In the center of the flower bed, there is also a tomb, surrounded by countless luminous plants.

Benevento is inscribed on the tomb, but the first name before the surname is blurred.

"The ones buried here should be Donna's parents." Archina was moved by the scene and lamented: "She was born with facial defects, but her parents still love her very much. Angie was made for her by her father, but it's a pity."

"Since then, Donna has locked herself away and only communicated with Angie."

Li Ang added at this time: "In the end she was discovered by Miranda, and she was subjected to inhumane mold experiments, which aggravated her mental problems."

Aqina thought for a while: "You are right to say that, but from another perspective, Miranda saved her and prevented her from dying quietly."

"What if this is what she wants?" Li Ang repeated meaningfully: "Death quietly."

"." Aqina didn't know how to answer for a while.

Li Ang continued: "Don't worry about this, let's go in first."

After finishing the conversation, the two walked around the circular cemetery and came to a tower-like building backed by a mountain.

It can be understood as the courtyard gate of Donna's house.

Because the old Benevento house is built on a cliff next to a waterfall, it can only be reached through the elevator in the tower.

There is a gap in the door of the tower to indicate the purpose of the visitor.

Aqina took out a milk-scented envelope from her chest. The family crest of the Te family was printed on the envelope, but before she threw it into the gap, she purposely left her bright red lip marks beside the crest.

"It's not necessary." Li Ang said.

"It's not necessary, but I like it!" The lady smiled and threw the envelope in, waiting for the other party's response.

The next second, the building door opened in response.

The reason why it was so timely was that the dolls and luminous plants that could be seen everywhere along the way were actually Donna's "eyes", allowing her to know the situation below the mountain even though she was far above the cliff.

When Li Ang and Aqina came out of the elevator, Angie was already waiting outside.

"You're really here! As expected of Anji's good friend!" The puppet bride jumped up to Li Ang and shouted excitedly: "Go, I'll take you to visit me and Donna's home!"

Aqina thought it was a bit noisy, and couldn't help frowning.

But Li Ang looked happy: "Yes, this is a promise between good friends, how could I forget it."

"Promise? That's amazing!" Angie danced after learning a new word.

There is a path between the tower elevator and the old house, which is less than 50 meters away. It is not a problem at all for Leon and Aqina, especially Aqina.

But for Angie, who is less than half the height of ordinary people, it is quite a long distance.

In order to save time, Li Ang simply bent down and hugged it in his arms.

Seeing this, Aqina couldn't help feeling a little sour in her heart: "It's so sweet, when can I have this kind of treatment?"

Li Ang looked at her stalwart figure: "It's almost the same if you hug me. Don't you think it's Anji?"

Strangely, the doll bride, who was very active in the past, didn't make any response, she lowered her head and remained motionless, as if she had turned back into an ordinary puppet.

Aqina couldn't help laughing: "You scared her."

Then he vaguely pointed to the old house not far away, making a gesture of scissors: "She cut off contact with Angie."

　Sorry, there's a lot going on today, so I'm late
