Chapter 141: Wait a mont, I'm going to kill two people
"Dong..."
The sound of the bell echoed like ripples on the water, spreading in the mist-filled air.
After the heavy bell rang, Su'en suddenly heard a long and increasingly clear sound of bells, "dong," "dong," "dong."
The two different sounds of bells overlapped, as if gradually overlapping with another ti and space.
Su'en felt his surroundings flicker before his eyes, and the scenery around him began to change rapidly.
He was already familiar with this situation and knew that he had been sucked into the cursed space.
.......
It was a cold night.
As the scenery changed, Su'en found himself standing at a crossroads in the shape of an "X."
He quickly looked around at the surroundings.
On the left side of the crossroads was a towering red brick bell tower, reaching a height of one hundred ters, with lights shining on the top of the tower.
The sound of "dong dong" still echoed in his ears.
He looked up at the clock on the bell tower, and the black hands on the white dial pointed exactly to twelve o'clock.
It was the midnight bell.
One hundred ters to the right was a magnificent white monastery.
The street at midnight was desolate and quiet, with a thin black mist pervading the entire street.
The ground was wet cobblestones, not spacious. There were obvious narrow lines on the thin layer of snow, as if they were traces left by carriage wheels.
There were retro-style hexagonal gas lamps on both sides of the street, and black iron flower fences surrounded roadside flower beds.
In front, there were rows of houses with red roofs, and the dim yellow light flickered on the frosted glass. It was the light of the fire burning in the fireplace, adding a touch of warmth to this cold winter night.
Snowing?
"Will it snow in the City of Dawn after a thousand years..."
Su'en looked at the intact buildings around him, which turned out to be the scenery of the City of Dawn a thousand years ago.
At this mont, a black carriage swiftly passed by on the road. The bell on the neck of the chestnut horse "ding-a-ling" made a clear sound, and the horse's hooves stepped on the stone road, making a "clank clank" sound...
Through the window of the carriage, one could still see an old gentleman in a well-dressed suit sitting inside.
The carriage passed by, stirring up a flurry of snowflakes, and the cold wind blew into the collar of Su'en's coat.
It made him shiver involuntarily.
There were figures, lights, and chimneys emitting white smoke.
There was an atmosphere of fireworks, as if in the real world.
This feeling was very strange.
It was as if he had traveled through history, and the painting of history was vividly displayed before his eyes.
"Mr. Johnny? Where are we?"
Beside him, a young boy in thin clothes tentatively called out. He was holding a basket of matches in his hand.
A match-selling boy?
Su'en didn't recognize Tommy, but he could tell from his tone and casually responded, "Cursed space."
He looked at Tommy's attire and guessed sothing, then asked, "What am I wearing now?"
Tommy replied, "Police uniform."
Su'en looked at his own outfit as a hunter and suddenly realized.
He focused his attention on the additional badge on his chest.
[Badge of the Dawn City Police]
Intimidation
3
Explanation: An alchemical accessory, proof of identity as a police officer in the City of Dawn; with it, you are a police officer with law enforcent authority. But be careful, it will attract the attention of killers.
"I am a police officer? A cursed space in role-playing mode? Interesting..."
Su'en looked at the easily misunderstood prompt with indifference, raising an eyebrow.
He then looked down at his own hands.
There was now an additional leather file folder in his hand.
Opening it, he found a case record.
[Police Testimony File for the Clock Tower Street Murder Case]
Case number: MST-07 Serial Killer Case
Case status: Unsolved
Chief: Fraule Scott
Witness/Assistant: Officer Johnny
The file record is as follows: This morning, a male body was found in the alley at 44 Clock Tower Street, with his face and internal organs eaten; this is the seventh murder case in this neighborhood, and the modus operandi is identical to the previous six cases; soone witnessed a cloaked figure wandering near the crossroads of 'Red Tower Street' at midnight; suspected distortion event, handle with caution, apply for support from the City Guard Special Organization if necessary...
"Is this a cursed space with a plot background? Do I have to find the killer?"
Su'en quickly scanned the file, reading it line by line.
However, the content of this file is very misleading.
He had already seen through the na of this cursed space, "Legend of the Clock Tower Monster," through the All-Knowing Eye, and guessed that the killer was most likely in the red brick bell tower on his left.
Moreover, the way to get out was not to catch the killer.
It was to fulfill a wish.
But since the All-Knowing Eye judged it as a "D-level" difficulty space, Su'en was not in a hurry.
Besides, he had his gun, storage ring, and the scythe of the undead.
There was more than one way to solve the puzzle.
But speaking of which, this scene is really realistic.Looking at the vibrant ancient street scene around him, he lost interest in the murderer.
It's the bustling Dawn City from a thousand years ago that really piques his curiosity!
.......
Entering the cursed space for the first ti, Tommy seed a bit nervous on the side. "Mr. Johnny... where are we going now? Are we going to find the source of this cursed space?"
"Yes. But no rush."
Su'en nodded and looked at two suspicious figures not far away. He said, "Wait here, I'm going to kill two people."
Kill?
Tommy was stunned by his words.
His tone was as calm as if he were saying he was going to buy a few oranges.
Before he could ask any more questions, Su'en had already walked over.
He took out his badge and said to the two n in black trench coats with pipes in their mouths, "Hello, please show
your identification."
The two n were a bit confused, as if they hadn't fully reacted to their new identities yet. "We are detectives, we want to investigate..."
But before they could finish their sentence, Su'en asked, "mbers of the Warblade Squad?"
"How did you..."
Before the man could finish his sentence, Su'en pulled out his gun expressionlessly and shot two holes in their foreheads.
The bodies fell to the ground, and Su'en harvested so experience points. He solemnly took off the storage rings from the bodies.
He muttered to himself, "Ten in total, eight more to go."
After killing the two n, Su'en turned his head and looked at Tommy, who was still stunned. He beckoned and said, "Let's go."
Tommy quickly ran over and asked, "Mr. Johnny, why did you kill them?"
He was also clever enough to guess sothing. "Those two were mbers of the Warblade Squad, right?"
Su'en asked, "You recognized them?"
Tommy nodded. "Yes."
Su'en didn't explain much. "You'll know soon."
Tommy asked, "Ah... where are we going now?"
Su'en replied, "Let's go see what the Dawn City from a thousand years ago was like."
Go out?
It would be a waste of opportunity to leave such an interesting place like this.
Eliminating the Warblade Squad was just a side plan.
The most important thing was that he was already 100% sure that this companion space was related to the "Wailing Witch," so he still needed to find so key clues in the space to understand the events.
.......
Su'en led Kay walking on the street. Instead of going to the clock tower or the monastery, he went directly to a brightly lit red-roofed house at the intersection.
Knock, knock, knock!
He knocked on the door and looked at the naplate next to the door, then shouted inside, "Sorry for disturbing you so late, Mr. Smith. I'm Officer Johnny, and I have sothing to ask you."
He quickly adapted to the role he was playing.
A female voice responded from inside, "Oh, Officer Johnny. Please wait a mont."
He heard so rustling sounds, as if soone was getting dressed.
After half a minute, the door opened, and a golden-haired lady in a Victorian-style puffy skirt opened the door.
She looked at Su'en as if she recognized him. "Officer Johnny, please have a seat inside."
Su'en didn't hesitate and walked in.
The interior of the house was elegantly decorated, with crystal chandeliers and mahogany furniture. Delicate ceramic dishes and silver trays were placed on the table. The fireplace was burning fiercely, and there was a deer head specin and a hunting rifle on the wall.
This was a wealthy household.
Su'en entered the house and quickly looked around. "Sorry for disturbing your rest, Mrs. Smith."
The blonde woman muttered, "Oh, it's such heavy snow, and you still have to go on patrol, Officer Johnny. You must be working so hard. Has there been another murder? Oh my, it's so scary. There's bad news every day recently."
After a pause, she asked, "Coffee or tea?"
"Tea, thank you."
Su'en casually replied, fully assuming the role of a police officer, and asked, "Mrs. Smith, have you noticed anything unusual in the neighborhood recently?"
Mrs. Smith was tinkering with a teapot on the fireplace and poured a cup of tea for Su'en. She said, "When the midnight bell rang last night, I seed to hear a very painful scream coming from the direction of the clock tower..."
When she bent down, Su'en saw the large white gullies through her collar and the steel corset around her waist.
"Oh."
Su'en didn't sit on the sofa, but went to the decorative bookshelf next to it and took out a thick, gold-embossed book.
He flipped through it, but there were no writings on the pages.
The other books were similar, except for the book "Complete Alchemy Basics," where he saw so fragnts of ancient Nuid language.
Su'en wasn't surprised by this. He continued to flip through the book while continuing to ask questions.
"Have you heard any news about Sir Isaac recently?"
"No, not at all..."
"Do your family have any plans to install chanical prosthetics?"
"..."
"Do you know a tall black tower?"
"..."
"Do you have any knowledge of alchemy?""Sorry, I'm not a sorcerer. Those books were bought by my husband, the mayor. But he hasn't co back for three days..."
"Are there any alchemists nearby?"
"The old nun in the white monastery across the street seems to be a powerful sorcerer..."
"Mr. Smith won't be coming back tonight?"
"Oh, Officer Johnny, you're so direct. Maybe you should be more tactful..."
"..."
"I want to ask about the monastery across the street. Have you noticed anything unusual?"
"There's nothing unusual there except for a few nuns and pigeons cooing all day."
"Do you have any special impressions of those nuns?"
"I only rember a girl nad Alice, she's very beautiful. She often plays the flute alone in the attic of the monastery. Oh, it's a sad tune that brings tears to your eyes..."
"..."
After asking a few more questions, Su'en knew that he probably wouldn't get any more information.
chanical and rigid answers.
This cursed space was a fragnt of mory from the "cursed source
