I Got on a Ghost Ship By Mistake and Was Forced To Be the Captain

  Chapter 27 Red Shoes

atmosphere,

   Not only a little solidified.

   Even revealed a strange atmosphere.

  The answer given by Tu Fu is very interesting.

  Yes, at least in the public perception, the murderer of the church attack has died in the riots.

  Only a very small number of police officers and the Black Swan Agency at the time knew that there was another murderer in this case.

  The noisy and bustling performance on stage made people unable to take their eyes off it, but Tu Fu and Grace in the auditorium were relatively silent, and the external signals did not interrupt their conversation.

  In the extremely short distance between seats, you can even observe the sweat beads on the other person's forehead and the sound of rapid breathing.

   On this rest day that should have been romantic and ambiguous, he raised such a dull question.

   Unavoidable, a little unpleasant.

  Grace's expression changed again and again, and she was naturally surprised,

   "I thought there were other murderers in that case."

   "So that's how it is." Tu Fu didn't delve into the matter, but turned the topic to another point, "Did you just say that you no longer work at the Old Hunter Tavern?"

   "I haven't been there for a long time since you told me it's not safe." Grace winked playfully, as if looking at a jealous boy, "Do you care about this?"

   "I do care about this."

  The corners of Tufu's mouth curled up slightly, "Because a lot of things have happened in the Wood District recently, because my uncle told me that those who died were related to the Old Hunter Tavern."

   Grace patted her chest belatedly, "It's really dangerous, but luckily I've already left..."

   "Since you left the Old Hunter Tavern, the murders in the Wood District have stopped."

  Tu Fu said quietly, which is why he hinted at Grace leaving after returning from the boat.

  He had doubts for a long time, and threw a bait.

  His dark night-like eyes raised at some point, and stared at Grace fiercely. His pupils were so deep that there was no end to them, and they seemed to be able to penetrate the lies in the world.

  In fact, from the second time he boarded the ship, Tu Fu noticed the monitoring of the Old Hunter Tavern, and was surprised to find something.

   Every time someone dies from a crazy dance, they go to the old hunter's tavern, and Grace happens to be on the surveillance.

   Once or twice is a coincidence, even if it happens a few more times, it's nothing.

   But as Tu Fu said, when he intentionally let Grace hear the news, she left the Old Hunter Tavern, the serial murders stopped, and everything in the tavern went on as usual.

  The stage play was still being performed, and it happened that the wedding ceremony between "Princess Sparrow" and the neighboring prince had already been performed, and the atmosphere was pushed to its climax.

  Even though the flashes continued to shine, it failed to break the solemnity of the conversation between the two.

   "This is ridiculous."

   After laughing, Grace felt ridiculous about it, "Just because I work in that tavern, you dare to conclude that I am the murderer of that serial murder, let alone you have been there, right?"

   "I wasn't sure before, but now I'm sure." Tu Fu said again quietly.

  The more he tried, the more frightened he became.

  Based on these speculations alone, Tu Fu can't make a judgment directly, after all, there is no substantive evidence.

  Just now, he accidentally mentioned the Old Hunter Tavern, and was surprised to learn that Grace knew that he had secretly gone to the Old Hunter Tavern.

  What even the underground organization and the middleman Alonso didn't know was actually discovered by Grace.

  He was already able to judge the extraordinaryness of the other party, and even recalled that after he got the potion, there were a pair of eyes staring at him in the dark, and he felt terrified.

   "Then how did I do it? To be able to kill so many people invisibly, without even doing it myself."

  Grace laughed back angrily, and then threw the problem to Tu Fu.

   "That's what I want to ask too." Tu Fu said bluntly, "Perhaps, it's not difficult to do it with the help of some supernatural power, supernatural power, taboos, or rituals."

  Tu Fu tried to use surveillance to investigate Grace, and naturally knew that this superficially well-behaved girl had another face in private. She appeared on the stage in the name of working in a tavern, but it was actually a kind of self-indulgence.

  Whenever Grace performed on stage, she attracted many audiences to join her like magic, and even started chasing her.

   Whenever Grace performed on stage, she completely lost her usual youthfulness.

  It's like a sparrow princess in a different dress, very different.

   "So I'm very curious, how did you do it, and why did you attack the church." Tu Fu spoke slowly, but his tone was not questioning.

   But it has actually been confirmed.

   Grace's eyes immediately became deep and sharp after hearing this. She was surprised that an ordinary person knew so much about this matter.

"Do you want to know?"

   There was no excuse, no rebuttal, and no need to cover up with more words. Grace's tone was surprisingly calm, but it was like a volcano that was about to erupt at any time.

  The calm tone made Tu Fu start to tremble in his heart, and as she blurted out these words, the entire theater fell silent at this moment.

  The whole world fell silent.

  The actors performing on the stage suddenly stopped, the lights of the station stopped moving, and the talking audience also stopped whispering.

  It seems that the pointer on the clock dial stops moving forward at this moment.

   "Do you really want to know?"

  Grace couldn't help raising her voice, there was no tenderness, and the unstable tone was mixed with anger, dissatisfaction, and even madness.

  Tu Fu's heart beat suddenly, and he felt the familiar crisis again.

  He activated the Hawkeye ability subconsciously, and his sharp eyes noticed the opponent's feet. At some point, Grace put on a pair of gorgeous red dancing shoes.

  The light is so red that it is dazzling.

   "I'll tell you everything."

  Grace got up slowly, her lithe body leaped high, imitating Andrew dancing in the church that day.

But her movements were slighter, and Tufu blinked his eyelids violently, before he could stop him, the strange and familiar song almost stopped his heart. And blood vessels are almost crushed.

   This music is even scarier than the looped versions of Canon and Little White Boat.

   The expression on Grace's face became more and more weird.

  Since owning this pair of red shoes, Grace has started to love dancing

  Dancing non-stop, non-stop dancing, day and night, across the fields and lawns.

   start dancing without stopping,

   Jump in the rain, jump in the wind, jump in the sun.

   Not only jumping on the cemetery, but even in front of the church can't help but want to jump.

   But there, she was kicked out by the priest, cursing her never to stop.

  When she finds that she is dancing in red shoes, those who have never paid attention to her will become very excited, as if only after wearing these shoes, she is the princess after midnight.

  After midnight, once you take off these shoes, you will be that ridiculous Cinderella again.

  Even though she was scared, she couldn't stop like a curse, and couldn't take off the red shoes.

   keep jumping,

   jumping till whitish and chilly,

   Jump until the body shrinks into a white skeleton.

  Grace's maverick action seems to have triggered a reaction in the theater. The actors on the stage cast their gazes here, and then the staff also cast their gazes.

  The noisy child sitting in front stopped crying, and the couple watching the drama together stopped making noise, and the old man twisted his stiff neck.

   This group of people who had nothing to do with it seems to have made an appointment in advance,

   Turn around and look up.

  The person who bowed his head raised his head, the person who turned sideways turned his body, and the person who turned his back turned his head around strangely.

  At this moment, countless eyes stared at him.

  Look at Tu Fu, who is only a normal person.

  The next moment.

  The corners of everyone's mouths showed a fanatical, weird...death smile.

  …

Central Avenue.

   "Damn it, it's Ethan's people, why are you everywhere?"

  When Police Officer Dutton Fix saw the team of cars from the Green District Police Department suddenly appearing in front of him and blocked the perimeter, he was immediately surprised.

  Accompanying him are the alcoholic Roman Richard and his transcendent colleague Kirby, in fact they are the main people responsible for this operation.

   Just as they arrived, they suddenly saw Ethan Winster's car and his idiot police officers. This group of people was already ready to go.

"It's a pity that you are late. Officer Ethan has led the team to sneak in ahead of time." Maren whistled happily using the words Ethan taught him, "Gentlemen of the Police Department, why don't you continue to go to the prison?" Arrests?"

   "Damn it."

  Officer Fix's face turned blue and then pale, "Obviously we discovered the suspicious point first, you'd better not hinder us from handling the case."

  The two sides began to argue over who would discover the doubts here first, and the leader of the other side, Roman Richard, touched his chin with interest,

   "Is there a possibility that you all came here after receiving the report letter?"

   "What, you have too!"

  Mallen seemed to think of something, took out a report letter from his pocket, and then watched Fix and Roman dumbfounded and took out the same report letter.

  It clearly states that another terrible riot is about to take place at the Leeds Grand Theater tonight, and it is the murderer in the Wood District and Santiago Church cases.

  At the end of the three letters, it clearly bears the identity of the writer.

fraternity,

   Sincerely.
