【——Avina】

Ciel pinched the paper, then let go and sighed slowly.

Avina must have helped me bear the mental pollution, and I'm afraid she has also suffered a lot of mental interference... She avoided me at this time, probably because she didn't want to make me worry, and she also found an excuse to leave so that Charles could take action.

"I clearly said before that I would stay with you for the next few days..."

Ciel tapped his fingers lightly on the table, then took a deep breath and opened the simulation interface.

She wanted to see how far the next simulation would go.

【来日:1Day (圣741年7月18日18:29)(消耗10命定点)】

【往日:31Day (圣741年6月17日18:29)(消耗10命定点)】

One day later?

Thirty-one days ago?

After a simulation day?

Her plan just now was to simulate for a longer period of time so that she could see the changes in Qiang Yin after he learned the news, and also try to contact Eleanor and develop her into an offline person... With only one day, Charles could do nothing.

Do I die quickly and then clear the simulation? Or do I wait a day for it to refresh?

No...you won't gain anything this way. Even though you have a lot of points and enough time, it's not worth wasting on her.

As long as he doesn't use spiritual summoning, the mental loss of a simulation is not something that is difficult for Charles to accept now.

Is it just a matter of making another save? Or trying to get the advanced potion?

If I could get another new save file this time, Ciel would have collected 8 extraordinary save files, which would be halfway to opening the old days...

Charles had a vague feeling that facing the deadlock in Anzu City, he might be forced to use the Old Days Simulation... This was the most mysterious and "most expensive" trump card in the system so far.

It would be best for her to open the old simulation in advance, find out what it is, and keep a trump card for herself - Charles is now like a rootless duckweed. As long as Qiang Yin finds her in reality, she is very likely to face "reality failure".

Collect new save files, or upgrade new potions.

Charles made a quick decision in his heart.

This time, she decided to use the past simulation and go back thirty-one days.

Thirty-one days ago, she was still in Buren City.

Charles didn't have many connections in Anzu City, so even if he wanted to digest the potion, he could only do it secretly... But it was different in Burren City.

There are still many materials and potions in the underground exchange area of ​​Deton Manor, and there are only a few high-end combat forces in the entire Burren City... not to mention the time point on the 17th, when the strongest people in the entire Burren City are probably only four.

Level 3 "Crown Guardian" Nia, Level 2 "Plague Doctor" Xie Lun, Level 2 "Missionary" Julis and Level 2 "Missionary" Kitty...

Whatever the recurrence ritual, Charles could complete it in the city of Burren... and with ease.

Ciel walked towards the door and opened it.

Tara, who had been guarding the door, turned around quickly after hearing the voice and bowed slightly: "Lord Charles..."

"Have you seen Avina?"

Ciel inquired.

She didn't see Nia in the corridor.

"Just left 2 minutes ago. Looks like he took Nia downstairs and left the hotel."

"How does her mental state appear?"

"He looks a little pale, and his spirit and concentration are a little distracted, but it's not serious."

Tara Tara answered truthfully.

"Did she say where she was going?"

Ciel demanded.

"It seems he went to see Miss Lucy."

Did you go find Lucy?

That's normal. It's impossible for Avina to go to the newspaper office by herself, and she doesn't have many connections in Anzu City. Lucy can help with this simple favor.

Charles felt a little relieved, and then said, "Come in and put up the Do Not Disturb sign."

Charles plans to ask Tara to help him "protect" and avoid being disturbed when entering the simulation.

Although the time spent in reality was short, it was also the time when Charles was at his most vulnerable. An ordinary person could probably easily stab Charles to death.

After Tara came in and closed the door, Charles just asked her to stand next to him. Then, Charles sat on the sofa and muttered in his heart.

"In the past."

"No. 0."

The silver glare engulfed everything in front of her.

……

【Past】

【圣741年6月17日18:29】

[Countdown - 23:59:59]

A warm feeling flooded into Ciel's body. She gradually felt the control over her body and slowly opened her eyes.

The moment he opened his eyes, Charles was slightly stunned by the familiar decoration in front of him.

…a simple little sofa, a worn rug, and a wooden table in front of a stone fireplace.

The aroma of broth came from the direction of the kitchen, and as soon as she smelled it, she knew that it was a dish she had made.

Ciel sat on the sofa and moved her ears slightly - at this moment, her hearing was far beyond that of an ordinary person.

She could already hear footsteps and quarrels outside the door.

So...it's this day...

It's only been thirty-one days...

She would never forget the day when she first felt despair and everything that happened on that day.

But the current Charles is no longer the original Charles.

hum-

A gun blade appeared at her hand, and the roots on the gun handle penetrated into her blood vessels and sucked her blood at will.

Charles just sat on the sofa without even turning his head. He raised the gun blade in his right hand, aimed it at the glass covered with newspaper, and gently pulled the trigger.

boom--!

The blood-colored bullet penetrated the window with the roar of a headhunter and directly sank into a person's head. In an instant, blood splattered everywhere.

Charles slowly stood up, raised his head slightly, moved his neck a little, and walked towards the door step by step.

squeak-

She opened the old wooden door, and in front of her was her sister Lizzie standing on the stairs with a frightened look on her face, and Aian, whose head was covered with blood, hibiscus branches, leaves and flowers.

Aian's brothers screamed and fled in fear. Charles slowly raised his eyes, walked down the stairs step by step, stepped over Aian's body, and stepped onto the muddy black stone road in the Clock Tower Alley area.

She looked up and took a deep breath. The stench of the Bell Tower Alley area that she had smelled for many years now made her feel unexpectedly relieved.

The sound of raindrops fell on her face which was filled with a faint smile.

Then, Charles raised his hand and pointed the gun at the other side of the street - over there, a group of gangsters wearing black windbreakers were walking towards Charles in the drizzle.

"Solari... and Thomas."

Ciel smiled and nodded.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

bang bang-

Gunshots kill people.

Chapter 210: "Madman" Reserve Charles.

Pat pat pat——

Fine raindrops fell on the roof with a crackling sound. Charles calmly looked at the blood roses blooming on the two corpses. They swayed in the muddy rain water, as if dancing a strange dance.

She slowly raised her eyes and looked at the gang members who were standing there trembling.

Someone finally let out a strange cry, and the gang members scattered and ran away, fear growing in their hearts.

With a flash of silver light, [Fatal Blood Roland] disappeared from Charles's hand.

Charles wanted to shoot them a few times, but then he thought better of it.

It was just to let [Fatal Blood Roland] draw a few more mouthfuls of his blood, but Charles felt that his blood should not be wasted in such a place.

She walked slowly towards the two bodies, bent down, and took out a revolver directly from Solari's body.

She turned around and looked at her sister who was sitting on the steps. She walked towards her step by step, turned the muzzle of the revolver in her hand, slowly placed the handle next to her sister's hand, and slowly exerted force with both hands to make Lizzie hold the gun tightly in her hand.

"Sister, I need to go out for a while."

Ciel smiled and said softly, "If someone comes."

She held her sister's hand and slowly moved her index finger.

"You just pull the trigger and send them home."

Lizzie seemed to be completely panicked until she was helped by Charles back to sit on the sofa in the living room. Only after Charles left did she gradually calm down.

What on earth just happened?

That... is she really my sister?

Why... did she become so...

Lizzie racked her brains but couldn't come up with a suitable adjective. She was filled with fear, but she didn't want to use some ugly adjectives to describe her sister.

She threw the revolver on the table, moved slowly to the window, and looked outside through the bullet hole.

At this time, the North-South Stone Street, which was drizzling, seemed to have returned to calm. The two bodies on the road had disappeared. Only a few scarlet violet petals fallen on the muddy and dirty water proved that Lizzie was not wrong just now.

……

Burren City, Gem District, Gem Avenue.

This is the most prosperous street in Burren. The buildings before No. 50 are residential areas close to the Jazz Bridge area. Most middle-class families will choose to rent houses here. This type of townhouse is very suitable for a family to live in.

At this time, an uninvited guest arrived at the door of Building 31, Baoshi Avenue.

Charles slowly raised his hand and gently pulled the rope beside the door twice. The hand-cranked doorbell was connected to the inside of the door through a simple mechanical device, and a crisp bell sounded.

Behind Charles, at the bottom of the stairs, many people were walking on the smooth road with umbrellas. Carriages passed by from time to time, but no one noticed anything unusual here.

Charles waited for a long time, but no one opened the door. Just as she was about to ring the bell again, the thick wooden door was slowly opened, and an old man with a slightly vigilant look on his face appeared in front of Charles' door.

"Hello, old sir."

Charles lowered his head slightly, staring at the shoe, and handed over a one-shilling silver coin. "I'm Adele's friend. I've rented the entire fourth floor. Would it be convenient for me to come in?"

Charles didn't know who else in the city of Burren he had become his nemesis - to be on the safe side, it would be better not to look directly at the other person to avoid complicating simple matters.

"Oh...oh! Of course, you are such a good kid. No need to tip me. I am the landlord here."

The old man chuckled, opened the door, and let Charles walk in.

How could a shy and cute girl who doesn't even dare to look adults in the eye be a bad person?

"Just go to the fourth floor and knock on the door. She happens to be at home today."

The old man smiled happily and watched Charles go upstairs and leave before closing the door and returning to his room.

Charles went up the stairs and quickly reached the third floor.

The stairs to the fourth floor were equipped with a simple protective wooden railing, and it wasn't even locked. With just a slight pull, the wooden fence would open directly.

Charles went straight up to the fourth floor. As soon as she stood in the living room, she smelled a faint minty scent.
