Blood Princess and the Knight

"About twenty years ago, a fire broke out on the outskirts of the East City. Because the fire started late at night, the Knights’ rescue came late and many people died. After the victims were settled, the Knights received instructions from the local temple. Rebuilding the outskirts of the East City, but the rebuilding work has been repeatedly hindered and uncontrollable natural factors have emerged one after another, causing the reconstruction progress to stagnate."

"Now that all this has come to light, the ghostly demons have been lurking here for more than two decades. Although we don't know what he is plotting, now we have sufficient evidence to apprehend him. I believe that the haunted incident will soon cease. Now, this is what happened.

"How did the fire start? Did someone deliberately or accidentally catch the arsonist?" Ji Bai had a general understanding of the fire, and he wanted to ask a few key questions.

"No, at least I don't know. The Cavaliers in charge of this case are now estimated to have retired." The Cavaliers captain shook his head.

"Which racial power does the demon species called Berman belong to? I don't think he is very hostile to humans.

"I don't know, at least it's not a common demon species. As for whether there is hostility to humans, it's not up to you and me." Captain Cavaliers frowned. "That's not right, he set off the fire that year, and now he hasn't found out what his purpose is lurking in the suburbs, and what conspiracy is brewing behind this. This is what we care about now." "Knight" Your Excellency, what do you plan to do with the puppets in that apartment?" Ji Bai suddenly thought of something.

"Puppet? What puppet?" The knight captain's expression looked. It was not a disguise, but a doubt from the heart.

"? Didn't you find some things such as puppets and graffiti boards when you searched the apartment?" Ji Bai was taken aback. "No, everything in the apartment except the furniture was searched out and left in the warehouse. , Just some scattered coins, strange stone jade pendants, and some photos. How can there be any puppets?'

"There must be a puppet. That demon species used some kind of sorcery to stuff the human soul into the puppet. Not only that, it also forced the souls of innocent customers who had lived in the store into the puppet...".

"Customer?" The captain of the Cavaliers flipped over the record book on the table. "There have been many residents who have lived in that apartment, and they have reported that the hostel is severely haunted, but so far there have been no cases of missing passengers or injuries."

"Is that so?" Ji Bai squeezed his eyebrows, lost in thought.

He has no malice towards humans, and the temporary visitors were only scared away, and did not harm their lives. From this point of view, he simply wanted to stay in that old apartment building and was scared away by the way. Of customers renewed the hype about the haunting in the outskirts of the East City.

If this is the case, it can explain why he deliberately prevented the Knights from rebuilding the outskirts of the East City.

But why did he do this? Why did he come to the outskirts of Dongcheng?

"Can you show me the photos I found?" F Mu Xiaowan

"Did you really treat this place as your own home? What I have revealed to you is already at the limit. Don't push your nose on the face and the Captain Cavaliers frowned slightly.

"So, who is the former owner of that apartment, shouldn't this be an unspeakable secret?

...The former owner of the apartment was an old knight, but this is a record nearly a hundred years ago. After that, the apartment was inherited by his son, and then there was no record. The family buried behind that apartment people. "The Captain of the Silver Throne Knight who glanced at Ji Bai's waist sighed slightly.

"What is the name of that old knight?"

"Do you know what the people who lived nearly a hundred years ago are called?" The Cavaliers captain said irritably, feeling that Ji Bai's question was completely making him difficult.

"Although you don't know what you want to do so much, I advise you, don't worry about too much, since you don't want to do it after retiring, then you should be honest." Before leaving, the captain of the Cavaliers gave Ji Bai a "advice." "Nosy people die the fastest in this world.

Ji Bai didn't know if he couldn't listen, he nodded vigorously, and walked out of the room.

"Look, it's the King of Knights! The King of Knights is here!" As soon as he left the house, he heard a noisy voice.

I forgot about it.

"Kou Guangmu Xiao" play

Ji Bai glanced to the side with great excitement, his eyes were full of admired rookie knights, and a silk scarf was pulled out of the bag to wrap Lin's long hair and face.

"Let's look at it, let's go. When you show your horse's feet, you can't escape." Ignoring Lin, Ji Bai took the lead and walked out of the headquarters of the Brilliant Knights.

"It's hard to go home, don't you plan to stay a little longer and leave?" Gao, who had replied to the sage, asked without remembering the question about the Cavaliers' interrogation of him before. He seemed to be drinking a piece of it. There is no memory of coming to the hotel at all.

"No need." Ji Bai walking in front deliberately took off the cross iron helmet.

Although this helmet is a low-cost mass-produced product, it is still necessary to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"So, how do you plan to go next? Stay here to observe the movements of the Brilliant Knights?"

"No, there are more important things to figure out." Ji Bai shook his head, he almost found his way.

Talking to the captain of the Cavaliers, he retained some doubts. If these questions were asked, they would inevitably be suspected.

For example, the order of the Brilliant Knights' attack this time is quasi-designated.

When the fire broke out, the Knights of Glory had not been established at all, and who ordered the reconstruction of the outskirts of the city.

Why did the Brilliant Knights also intervene in this matter?

S-Mu Xiaowan

What seemed normal, but Ji Bai faintly caught a coherent thread.

No one will tell him the truth, everything can only be found by himself.

"It's you, is it really good to have been following me? I remember that you had another purpose in the city of Thoreau.

"I don't have anything important for the time being, and I have nowhere to go. Don't mind if I follow? Where are you going now?"

"The suburbs of North City."

Hearing this, Lin's complexion behind her was slightly pale.

After getting off the carriage, Ji Bai and others returned to the old apartment.

The seals of the Knights and a sign that ordered no entry were posted around, and several knights were on duty.

The blockade was faster than he thought, but Ji Bai didn't intend to sneak in during the day.

He walked around to the back of the old apartment (looking from a distance. 2) There are several stone steles standing on the dirt bag. There are a few chapters 31 carved crookedly with a carving knife. The bronze mirror in the basement is falling in the dark. I went back to the old apartment hotel and slept on the bed on the first floor.

The door opened, and a rickety old man stood outside the corridor, peering at himself through the gap.

The distance between him and himself kept getting closer, and he couldn't move or even turn his eyes while lying on the bed, as if he had merged with the bed.

When he tried to struggle, the old man was already standing next to his bed, his corpse-spotted old cheeks showed no emotion, and his eyes stared at him deadly.

"Is there something to do with me?" He couldn't speak, but he understood what Ji Bai wanted to express.

The old man stared at him for a while, pointed silently to the floor, gave him a meaningful look, and then dissipated.

When he woke up from the dream, Ji Bai stood up.

The crescent moon was shining brightly, the light-colored brilliance poured down the outskirts of Solo City, and the old apartment buildings were hidden in the darkness, like a sleeping giant, the bleak wind on all sides was his breath.

A little bit of moonlight was scattered on the lonely stone tablet, the old stone tablet was severely weathered, and the writing on it was illegible.

And he was lying on the lawn not far from the old apartment.

Back again?

Ji Bai remembered that he should sleep in a small hotel in Nancheng District, and wait until tomorrow to make plans.

I don't have the habit of sleepwalking. Who brought myself to this place while he was asleep? Or is it because you have thoughts day by day and dream night by night, worrying about the doubts about the old apartment, so you came here at night in a daze?

Recalling a certain reminder that the weird old man made to himself in his dream, he felt that things were not so simple.
