Ninth Library

"Nai Nai said before that we should adapt accordingly, and the dean has already promised her that he will temporarily take the students to another place tonight."

Shen Mo had already put away the pocket watch in his hand, while Lin Yue looked at him, and after he had finished speaking, he asked, "Are you sure, that watch is good?"

Hearing this, Shen Mo could only laugh dryly. Of course he knew the meaning of Lin Yue's words. After all, it was not a day or two since this pocket watch fell off the chain, and he could only spread his hands and reply at this moment: "It can be regarded as a reminder." Bar."

The purpose of their coming to Alice Academy today is to find the 'book collection' smoothly tonight.

In the three murder cases that occurred, there was no relationship between the three victims. The only thing in common was that they all died in the same way, and their gender was also the same.

The three murders happened in one period, and among the three people who died, the first two were employees of Alice College, and the last one was a student from another school.

Because some people didn't want to cause panic, they asked the school to block the news, but until today, the murderer of the murder has still not been found. Seeing that this threat is likely to be hidden in the school, there is no other way. A silent mother, hoping she can help.

Silence's mother is a very famous magician in the world. She once also studied at Alice School of Magic and Magic. She did not refuse the request of her alma mater. After responding to the request of the head of the school, she threw her son away. come over.

As a temporary worker in the Ninth Library, it is not the first time Shen Mo has come into contact with this kind of work. Every time, some weird things will happen, but once there are more weird things, they will become got used to.

The evening sky is about to be shrouded in night, and the greenhouse of Alice College is a place that is a bit like a dense forest.The branches and leaves of the stretching trees are criss-crossed, the unknown vines wander freely and hang down, and the weeds grow luxuriantly on the dry ground. In the gaps, roses and raspberry flowers quietly bloom.

And in the deepest part of the greenhouse, stood a small figure.

It was a young girl with freckles on her face, she was still wearing a white shirt and plaid skirt, and she was waiting here at this moment to wait for the night to fall.

The students who were still in the academy were taken to other places one after another. Except for some necessary people, the entire academy became empty.

The students didn't know why the college did this, but the girl didn't want to leave here, because she was at ease here.

After the last inspector left the greenhouse, the girl finally breathed a sigh of relief. She stood up slowly, patted the dirt on her dress, looked at the sporadic lights outside the greenhouse, and followed the road. Extended to the distance.

At the end of that road is an inconspicuous studio. There are still unfinished paintings in the studio. The girl walks along the road until she walks to the door of the studio. The door is now closed. There is no lock, but the girl knows that she cannot open the folding door no matter what.

A high-level magic spell was attached to the gate, and unless she could unlock the spell, she couldn't get in at all.

"It's so late, what are you doing here alone?"

That was a woman who was about the same age as the girl, but unlike the girl, this person was wearing a red dress, which was as red as blood, and couldn't be covered even under the curtain of night.

"Who are you?"

This person must be very beautiful.

The girl couldn't see the connection of the person in front of her, but she could feel that the other person's eyes like black crystals were looking at her quietly. The girl's white skin was like snow, and the smile on her face was like a spring breeze, but being stared at by such a beauty, But she felt as if she was in an ice cellar all over her body.

Intuition is telling the girl to stay away from the person in front of her.

"Lily, where are you?"

The companion's voice was like a ray of light in the dark, and the moment Lily heard that voice, Lily responded immediately: "I'm here, Xiaoxing!"

After the other party got Lily's response, footsteps were heard not far from the studio, and the woman in red looked at Lily with a regretful expression.

"Lily!"

Just when Lily turned her head to confirm that Xiao Xing had arrived, she found that there was no one behind her. The alarm bells rang in her heart instantly, but when she turned her head again, she found that Xiao Xing had appeared at some time in front of myself.

"You... when?"

The voice clearly came from behind, but why did someone appear in front of him?Before she had time to ask this question, she discovered that besides Xiaoxing, there were two other people who came here.

One was a strange classmate with waist-length hair, and the other was... a man?

"what!?"

Alice Women's No. [-] Magic Academy, basically there are no men in the academy here, but tonight, after her plan failed, an unexpected person, a man, suddenly appeared.

"you you you!"

Lily's attention was basically attracted by the man who appeared suddenly, and she didn't realize that the woman in red had disappeared quietly. When she was carefully brought back to the dormitory, she suddenly remembered something, but to Looking at Xiaoxing, she didn't dare to tell what she saw at all.

"We fell behind today, and the teacher told us to rest in the dormitory for a night, and we are rushing to gather tomorrow."

When Xiaoxing was talking to her roommate, she found that the other party was in a daze. She could only sigh helplessly for Lily's appearance.Lily has often been in a daze during this period of time. If it weren't for Xiaoxing today, no one would have noticed that there was one less student among the students.

Xiaoxing originally thought that Lily would ask about those two people, but she didn't expect that this person didn't care at all. They have been roommates together for more than half a year. Not so silent.

Xiao Xing knew that Lily had been greatly stimulated not long ago, and she was barely able to return to class after recuperating in the hospital for a long time, but since Lily came back, her whole person has changed.

"Lily, today... let's rest first."

Seeing that Lily was finally willing to close her eyes and go to sleep, Xiaoxing breathed a sigh of relief.The only light in the dormitory building was also turned off, Shen Shen stood downstairs, looking at the window that had no light, as if thinking about something.

"It seems that tonight may return without success!"

After saying this, he turned around and looked at the person behind him, and asked, "Lin Yue, what do you think we should do?"

Lin Yue frowned and didn't answer in silence, because he knew that even if he said something, the person in front of him would just continue to joke.

Lin Yue lowered his eyes, and after a while, he said to Shen Mo: "There is still the smell of blood."

Shen Mo knew that the place Lin Yue mentioned referred to the studio he had seen before. As a non-monster, Shen Mo couldn't smell anything, but Lin Yue said there was a smell of blood, and he believed that blood must be hidden in the studio. taste.

Silence: "Would you like to take a look?"
