Chapter 328
Speakeasy Bar.
Office.
"A cup?"
Zhong Shenxiu looked at the bandaged Julie and passed a glass of blood wine.
This is a Cocktail specially deployed by him, with a strange ability to heal injuries.
"Thank you..."
Julie was holding the wine glass in both hands, sipping, and suddenly, she shrugged her shoulders, and a drop of tears rolled down her cheeks: "Jasmine and the shadow... They are all dead..."
"This thing is very strange!"
Zhong Shenxiu played with the meat ball on his hand, feeling that this meat ball does not look like some kind of flesh and blood essence , And the texture is very strong.
Although I was frightened by myself, as if I were dead, it is not so easy to break through this shell and figure out the mystery.
He asked casually: "This glutton, Daly, how did you find you?"
"We just came back, we were called..."
Julie sighed: "Someone in the party betrayed us... He must have investigated our identities secretly and has a huge influence."
"You should know the identities of all participants, Tomorrow, I will accompany you one after another to visit the past, so you can figure out the truth..."
Zhong Shenxiu casually said.
"Yes, your ability?" Julie was still very surprised when he mentioned this.
"I am already a'Promoter'."
Zhong Shenxiu answered casually, not surprisingly seeing Julie's scared expression.
……
2nd day, night.
"I have visited a few people during the day. The butcher is dead, the detective has long since ran away, the white cat is nowhere to be seen, and he is not a painter..."
Zhong Shenxiu is wearing an evening gown, Wearing a silver half-mask, and Julie came to a manor with Julie: "So...it's a jazz?!"
"His true identity is Slater, the son of a big banker...in the upper level of Byron City. Very influential."
Julie sighed: "At the beginning, he used his background to give us a lot of help in the gathering, and there is not much conflict of interest. I can't think of the reason for his betrayal..."
"Sometimes, betrayal is not necessarily because of profit, but also because of fear!"
Zhong Shenxiu sighed and walked into the manor.
He didn't say that he seemed to smell Death Aura.
The whole manor is very quiet, not even a security guard or maid guarding the gate.
Zhong Shenxiu, together with Julie, swaggered into the deepest part of the manor.
"This is...what's going on?"
Julie walked on the scarlet carpet in the corridor, looking at the precious oil paintings and artwork decorations on both sides, her voice was trembling.
"Probably... are they all dead?"
Zhong Shenxiu sighed and pushed open a door according to Spirituality's induction.
This is a study room, all around it is quiet and the moon is cold.
In the silence, a hoarse and low voice suddenly sounded: "Are you here?"
Julie turned around and saw Slater sitting behind the desk.
He is tall, handsome, with golden curly hair.
"Sir, why are you betraying me and betraying us?!"
Julie asked coldly.
"Because of fear...that woman is a lunatic!"
Slater's expression suddenly collapsed: "Did you see it? The servants of this entire manor and mine My relatives... are all eaten by her... If I don't want to satisfy her in any way, she will eat me next! My body has her ceremony power, I can't leave here, I can only provide her with prey... She likes to eat mysterious person, so I have to find more mysterious persons for her...but, I have no choice but who else can I find besides you?"
His two lines of tears shed tears After coming down, the tone didn't know whether it was regret or indifference.
'So it seems, if the glutton didn't find Julie last night, he would probably come to me? Anyway, the results are almost the same...'
A single thought arose in Zhong Shenxiu's heart.
"An excuse for a coward."
Julie took a step forward with tears in her eyes.
"Are you going to kill me?"
Slater said with a smile: "Then please hurry up and do it!"
The breeze is blowing and it is set off Got his collar.
At this time, Julie was shocked to discover that under Slater's head, there was a blood-red skeleton!
"You...what's wrong?"
Julie puts her hands on her lips, and takes a step back.
"You don’t think that that woman’s greed is nothing more than this, do you?"
Slater gave a sad laugh: "Although she let me go, she just let me go. Head... I watched her eat my limbs, my internal organs... but kept my head alive, I may live for another six days...hehe...haha..."
"He is crazy."
Zhong Shenxiu looked at this scene and sighed: "If you want revenge, let him stay here and wait for the inevitable death... If he is a companion, Then send him the last ride."
After finishing speaking, he left the study and stood in the corridor, holding his hand admiring an oil painting hanging on the wall.
After a while.
A gunshot came from the study!
……
Outside the manor.
Julie and Zhong Shenxiu walked out together.
"Why does this happen to a person?" The corners of her eyes were flushed with confusion.
"The ultimate fear will completely change a person."
Zhong Shenxiu sighed: "Perhaps...we never knew ourselves. It's not really the critical moment. , No one knows what choice he will make, choose to become a hero or a coward!"
"This is not that simple. Why do gluttons suddenly come to this city? And before After the death of the watchmaker and Old Drunkard, their bodies are still there. Obviously they were not under Dai Li's hands!"
Julie suddenly breathes deeply: "I will continue to investigate."
She looked at Zhong Shenxiu expectantly, but found that the other party hadn't responded for a long time, and the light in her eyes could not help but slowly go out.
"I'm just an underground bar..."
Zhong Shenxiu reluctantly said: "And...I have something recently."
Old Drunkard followed The watchmaker is not familiar with him, and has no obligation to avenge him.
Moreover, investigating the case is too much trouble.
"I was impolite."
Julie sighed.
"Wuhen Bookstore is not safe anymore. You can live in the bar during the period of your investigation..."
Zhong Shenxiu thought for a while, Julie is on a good relationship. Should be protected.
"I feel your attitude is a bit negative..."
Julie stared suspiciously at Zhong Shenxiu: "What are you waiting for?"
"Nothing, You think too much..."
Zhong Shenxiu shrugged, the two returned to Speakeasy Bar together.
Today's business in the bar was a bit deserted, with only one person sitting on the bar.
It’s Angel!
"Levy!"
When she saw Zhong Shenxiu coming in, she immediately beckons with the hand excitedly: "Bring me a Cocktail that you made by yourself."
"Okay, no problem."
Zhong Shenxiu walked into the bar with a smile, and took the tool from Smith: "It seems that you are in a good mood recently."
" Yes, maybe I will catch up with Alice soon."
Angel smiled in response, eyes full of expectation.
