Chapter 9 Haunted
Rasha Island is a very hidden island in the foggy sea. Although it is officially known, almost no one can find it without correct navigation charts.
The maid Julie has finished her day's work and is preparing to go back to her room to wash up and go to bed.
There are not many real human servants in the emerald castle of Nuoda. Julie is a woman rescued by the mysterious queen from the pirates. She is the daughter of a poor man from a small town near the sea. Her family is too poor, so she was sold to human traffickers by her father.
Then she was resold to the sea and became a slave girl. Maybe it was because of her mediocre appearance, or maybe it was because she was rescued by the Dawn shortly after being sold. Fortunately among misfortunes, Julie had not encountered anything too terrible and had not lost her sense of love.
Zest for life.
Julie is now living very happily in this dreamy emerald palace and truly respects Bernadette as a queen.
While passing by the kitchen, she heard the sounds of "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" coming from the kitchen.
"Who is it? Still in the kitchen so late?"
Julie approached the kitchen curiously, stuck her head out, and looked into the kitchen.
The kitchen was not too dark, and the crimson moonlight shined through the window, illuminating various cabinets, pots and stoves in the kitchen.
Julie saw a figure covered in blood in front of a stove. The blood was rich and dripping onto the ground. The figure covered in blood was holding an ax and chopping up a humanoid corpse.
The moment Julie was stunned by the horrific scene in front of her, the bloody man suddenly turned his head and looked at her with malice.
"Ah!!" Julie screamed miserably and fainted to the ground.
The lights in the corridor were lit one by one, and Butler Purley was the first to arrive. After that, the Beyonders from the Emerald Castle gathered one after another.
Mr. Purley first checked the surrounding environment and found nothing abnormal. Then he woke up the maid Julie.
"What happened?" Perley's voice was deep and steady, giving people a very reliable feeling.
"I, I saw, I saw a man covered in blood in the kitchen. He, he was chopping something. He suddenly turned his head to look at me. Really, he was so scary!" Julie sobbed and said what she had seen before.
The horrific scene he saw, his tone was full of fear.
Purley frowned and ordered the Extraordinaries: "Look around again and check carefully to see if there is anything abnormal."
At this time, Bernadette, the owner of the castle, also came over. Perli took two steps, approached Bernadette, and quickly explained the situation.
Bernadette had no expression. She looked at Julie, then at the kitchen, and looked in silence for a while.
After a while, she turned to Julie and said gently: "Go back to your room and rest first. Don't worry, it's fine. If you're scared, you can sleep with your friends."
Then he said to the Extraordinaries: "You should also go back."
After everyone left, Purley said to Bernadette: "Your Majesty, did you find anything? I carefully checked the kitchen and nearby rooms, and there was nothing, no ghosts or ghosts, and no smell of outsiders.
Could it be...that Julie had private contact with extraordinary items of unknown origin and was contaminated and had hallucinations?"
"Julie was not contaminated and I checked her mental state."
"But, could it be that Julie was just dazzled and frightened herself?" Perli blurted out in disbelief.
"No, no one will have this kind of hallucination for no reason." Bernadette said firmly, and then ordered Purley: "Check the entire castle tomorrow. Send someone to monitor Julie for a while to see if she will have any symptoms in the future.
Abnormal behavior.”
"If this ghost has any purpose, this kind of thing may happen again. We can wait."
…
The early morning sunshine fills the emerald green castle, making the entire castle appear clear and green, which reminds people of vitality, vitality, prosperity and joy.
There was no follow-up to last night's haunting, as if it was really just Julie's hallucination.
The manager, Mr. Purley, directed the Extraordinary to thoroughly inspect every room in the castle, including all desks, wardrobes, lockers and other places where strange items may be hidden, as well as boxes for storing personal belongings.
But in the end nothing was found.
Mr. Purley reported to Bernadette: "We checked all the rooms in the castle except your collection room and living room, and found no suspicious items."
Bernadette nodded lightly and said, "Come with me to the collection room and take a look."
Arriving all the way to the collection room, Bernadette temporarily opened the seal and entered the collection room. The collection room was quiet and nothing unusual.
Bernadette and housekeeper Purley carefully checked the location and sealing status of each sealed object, and also counted other spiritual materials and extraordinary characteristics, but found nothing wrong.
Bernadette walked to a standing cabinet with some large drawers and opened a drawer. There were a few bound ordinary notebooks and some scattered papers. They looked very ordinary and there was nothing magical about them, but
You can feel that they are protected by a magical power, protecting them from being corroded by time.
Seeing these diaries and papers, Bernadette's pupils suddenly shrank, and her normally calm face showed an unconcealable surprise.
wrong!
Their positions have been slightly moved.
Someone has looked through these diaries!
Bernadette suddenly remembered Cattleya's previous letter. She said that Moss would receive a prophecy as a penancer. At that time, she even suspected that the key to the prophecy was related to her father, and she had recently been asking members of Dawn Elements to collect information from various places.
Trying to find some clues.
Now his father's diary has been secretly read, and his Emerald City has been secretly broken into by unknown intruders.
Thinking of all this, Bernadette trembled with excitement and could not calm down for a long time.
After a long time, Bernadette suppressed her emotions and told Purley: "Go get a crystal ball. I want to divine."
Hearing this, Purley was slightly surprised, but then he thought that Her Majesty the Queen might have discovered something, so he immediately turned around and left, and soon came back with a crystal ball.
Bernadette took the crystal ball and faced the opened drawer. She held the crystal ball in one hand and groped the surface of the crystal ball with her other hand. She stretched her spirituality and let it flow into the crystal ball, while murmuring in her mouth:
"The last creature that looked through these materials."
The crystal ball suddenly brightened up, and stars flashed inside.
After a long time, the light of the crystal ball dimmed, and Bernadette let out a long breath.
In the revelation of astrology, she saw a vague figure, hazy and erratic, with countless symbols symbolizing order, shadow, weirdness and change appearing and disappearing.
Bernadette frowned. This was quite different from the result she expected, and the vague figure did not give her a sense of familiarity.
She suddenly felt disappointed and helpless, like a homeless child.
After staring at the diary in the drawer for a while, Bernadette took a deep breath, cheered up again, pushed the drawer back, and then exited the collection room with housekeeper Perley and made the seal again.
The astrological result doesn't mean anything, it can only mean that this matter has nothing to do with the father.
There is also that prophecy, and there are still many things waiting for me to do.
Father, Father!
