Chapter 41 Privacy
"Susan, listen carefully. I thought of a good idea, which may allow us to get in touch with the truth of this manor, but I need your cooperation." Qin Lun whispered, "Remember, you will be a female guest in the manor last night!"
"But..." Susan was slightly surprised. Before she could say anything, Qin Lun had turned around and walked towards Old Parker.
"Sir, I don't know if there is something... Should I tell you!" Qin Lun stood behind Parker's housekeeper and said softly in a hesitant tone.
"What's the matter, Chris?" Parker immediately turned around, and the old housekeeper still had a stern face. He probably was still dissatisfied with Qin Lun who entered the fourth floor restaurant and the rash Tony. "That's right, sir, the lady behind me is going back. I want to ask if there is a free carriage in the manor!" Qin Lun turned halfway, revealing Susan behind him.
"Oh, you are... Miss Diana?" After Qin Lun pointed Susan to Parker, the old butler seemed to wake up from a dream. He noticed the first time that there was such a ragged woman in the restaurant.
He owed, and while turning a blind eye to Susan's disrespectful dress, he said respectfully, "Are you going back now? No, no, no, if you were to let you go back like this, the Baron would be very distressed..."
The old housekeeper said, suddenly frowned and muttered as if he was talking to himself, "This is my dereliction of duty. The day when my wife comes back is two days earlier than originally... Let's do this, go to the guest room first and wait. After I ask the master for instructions, I will arrange a carriage for you immediately!"
After Parker finished speaking, Susan, who was stunned by the opening of her mouth, hurried out of the restaurant.
Qin Lun quickly winked Susan and suggested that she follow her, and the two followed the old housekeeper and walked outside.
"Chris, what's going on? How could he know me? Oh, no, treat me as Miss Diana?" Looking at the butler Parker leading the way, Susan finally couldn't help but approach Qin Lun and asked softly.
Qin Lun smiled slightly and explained to Susan in a low voice. He just made a gamble based on his guess about the existing information, but fortunately he bet right.
Since Qin Lun entered Wilson Manor again, he has been thinking about what is this mysterious power in the manor?
First of all, this mysterious power must be related to the Wilson family, Wilson Manor, and even the town of Mont. Then there may be only two types, one is a mysterious thing related to the region or the building, and the other is a mysterious spirit related to people.
The most likely thing is the Wilson Manor itself. But as Qin Lun explored more clues, he rejected this possibility.
Because mysterious things, especially Wilson Manor itself, are just buildings, it is impossible to show mysterious power without its territory, and naturally it cannot become an English gentleman before, kill Carmen and kidnap Susan.
Excluding the possibility of mysterious things, only the mysterious spirit is left. Then there are two possibilities: this mysterious spirit is only Baron Wilson, the owner of Wilson Manor, and even the undead group of the villagers in Mont Town.
Judging from the relevant spirits that Qin Lun has been exposed to, the bartender in the Mont Town Tavern, the personal servant Tony, the cook Melanda, Parker Butler, etc., these spirits seem to have independent memory and self-control capabilities.
Therefore, this mysterious power is definitely not a single undead spirit. Otherwise, even if it can transform into so many people, it will not be able to have the independent memory of so many people.
In this way, Qin Lun can roughly determine that this mysterious power is a collection of undead spirits, and there is also a dominant undead spirit. This conclusion is easy to obtain because this mysterious power has always shown reasonable logic.
For example: the transformation of Monte Town and the original Wilson Manor allows other undeads to have certain living habits and memories, thereby luring outsiders into Wilson Manor.
Of course, the undead assembly cannot be without defects. Their consciousness is actually incomplete. The so-called autonomy is simply based on vague memory in action. Qin Lun just proved this.
Before, he was guided by the subconscious mind of the Necromancer, and met another Necromancer, Harry Wilson, but during this period, both Tony and Harry ignored Susan beside him, including Qin Lun and Susan's unreasonable clothes.
Assuming that Susan is not Qin Lun's hallucination or necromancer, it is obvious that these necromancers can only identify strangers under certain specific conditions. Susan is not in this specific condition for the time being.
In this way, the question arises. If Baron Wilson really kidnapped her, then why did the Baron kidnapped her, and why would the other undead not know her existence?
Based on this information, Qin Lun only came to one conclusion, that is, Susan had some kind of personal connection with the British gentleman who abducted her (most likely Baron Wilson), and even didn't know about her personal servant or young son.
If a normal man conceals his relationship with a woman, then the woman will obviously not be an ordinary friend. When contacting Mrs. Wilson and her daughter stayed in England for more than half a year, there seemed to be a big conflict between the couple.
Therefore, Qin Lun came to an incredible final conclusion. In this plot line, Susan may play the lover or illegitimate daughter of Baron Wilson. If you contact the Wilson Manor oil painting preserved by Susan's grandfather, this conclusion is highly likely.
Qin Lun’s gambling just now was to bet that Parker knew about the existence of this woman.
This is very likely because of Susan's special nature in this role. Baron Wilson may hide it from his personal servant Tony and his son Harry, but as long as this woman enters the manor, she will definitely not hide it from Butler Parker.
Fortunately, Qin Lun made a bet. With his slight reminder, Parker immediately found Miss Diana, the character played by Susan from his vague memories!
The mist shrouded in Wilson's manor was slowly peeled off by Qin Lun, revealing the story that had been hidden in it for hundreds of years, or the tragedy that formed this mysterious power.
"Lovers or illegitimate daughter?" Susan asked anxiously, "Chris, are you saying that the ghost guy kidnapped me, just because I am like his former lover or illegitimate daughter?"
"Yes, Susan, think of the oil painting of the manor left by your ancestors!" Qin Lun quickly raised an index finger and signaled her to whisper softly, not to disturb the Parker in front of her. "I think your appearance should look very much like a female ancestor, and she has some kind of personal relationship with Baron Wilson hundreds of years ago."
"Then what are we going to do now? Will it be dangerous to go to Baron Wilson like this?" Susan asked at a loss and at a loss.
"Susan, this is your choice!" Qin Lun looked at her, and did not force her, but said lightly, "I told you that we can't get out without breaking this mysterious power, and you don't want to care about Karin and Dana? They entered the manor to save you!"
"Karin, Dana..." Susan's face changed. She closed her eyes and rubbed her temples hard, as if she wanted to hypnotize herself. "You are right. I can't leave Karin and Dana, and those trapped searchers. We're going out from this ghost place together!"
Just as Qin Lun and Susan were discussing, Housekeeper Parker had turned the corridor and walked towards the fifth floor of the manor.
However, as soon as he stepped on the first stairs, he suddenly remembered something, turned his head and said to Qin Lun, "You go downstairs to find Tony and ask him to take you to the horse house. Arrange the carriage first. Miss Diana may use it later!"
"Yes, sir!" Qin Lun had the urge to curse. The groom he had found for him at the time had become a flaw.
He winked at Susan helplessly, signaling the woman to follow first, and he needed to hide from Parker's sight first.
Qin Lun hid in the corner of the stairs and watched the two people walking up the stairs in front of him. But accidents always came unexpectedly. Under Parker's leadership, the figures of the two began to appear translucent...
Qin Lun's pupils shrank, and he didn't care to arouse Parker's vigilance. He ran forward from his hiding place, trying to pull Susan back. But it was too late. When his hand touched Susan, the two people in front seemed like phantoms made of clouds and mist, and then disappeared.
"Damn it, it disappeared in such a short distance. As the plot deepens, the mysterious power is gradually increasing!" Qin Lun's face looked a little annoyed. He should have discovered when Harry disappeared.
Now that Susan is missing, he may really miss the important plot this time. At the end of the puzzle, there is no answer. For Qin Lun's master personality, this is even more difficult for him to accept than being unable to return to the broken starry sky.
"No, there will be another chance! The deeper the plot develops, the greater the restraint of the mysterious power, the weaker the control over the manor, and the easier it is to break the illusion in certain specific places."
Qin Lun remembered the study on the first floor before. When he and Susan were there, neither he nor Susan had any contact with any character or necromancers in the plot, but they still triggered the riot of the necromancers. This shows that in addition to the guidance of the necromancers, certain specific areas of the Wilson Manor can also intervene in the plot.
"As I guess, if the final tragedy of Wilson Manor was started by Wilson and his wife, then the two of them are now..." Qin Lun's eyes flashed with light, and he ran towards the fifth floor without hesitation.
If the cheating husband and angry wife want to fight, they will naturally not be in public. Then the private area on the fifth floor is the most likely battlefield for the two.
Just as Qin Lun stepped on the last step, the scenery in front of him changed a lot, and he appeared in a spacious room.
