Strange Stories about Castle Rules
Ding Can came to the room Xia Jialian mentioned. If she only looked at the door, there was actually nothing special compared to other rooms. She tried to turn the doorknob.
With a click, very smoothly, the sound of the lock core jumping came. She turned around to look at her companion in surprise. It turned out to be the person who opened the door. She was wearing blue leather shoes and was qualified to enter.
"Come in quickly, Sister Can, we'll take a look outside." Gao Wenwen couldn't help but urge her. He was also curious about what it looked like inside.
Ding Can nodded and pushed the door open. The moment he saw the scene inside, he was surprised by the bright and eye-catching colors. Just as the rules said, the room was almost entirely blue, and a cold feeling came over him.
Every surface of the house, the ceiling, the surrounding walls, and the wooden floor underfoot are no exception.
Generally speaking, when choosing a decoration style, people will choose warm colors that are suitable for rest. Even if they choose blue, they will use a deeper color that does not dominate the room.
However, most of the colors in front of us are highly saturated and slightly glaring cold colors, which may not soothe our emotions when used in daily life.
It is difficult for ordinary people to live in such a room for too long.
Compared with the overall color scheme of the house, what attracted her attention most was the window facing the door.
The shape of the window easily reminds people of the eyeball.
It is approximately elliptical in shape, with a slight convergence at the edge, similar to the direction of the corner of the eye.
In the middle, the shape of the pupil is enclosed by a blue iron frame, and the surface of the iron frame is painted blue and gold.
In order to ensure stability, the windows are installed with double-glazed glass, and some thin bird feathers are pasted on the interlayer between the glass for decoration.
Of course, it’s also blue.
At first glance, these fine veins look like a few normal bloodshot veins covering the whites of the eyes.
It was almost noon at this moment, and the sunlight was shining brightly from outside. After passing through the glass, it produced a slight refraction.
Under the influence of light, some fine dust particles filled the air, followed by a faint golden glow.
It was like a pair of eyes looking at him.
A beautiful and enchanting eye.
"Why does this window look so eerie?" Shi Yan couldn't help but frown, and thought of the two eyeballs she had seen before, which was extremely creepy.
Gao Wenwen had seen Will in person: "Actually, if you think about it carefully, the feeling given by the window is indeed a bit similar to that child's eyes."
Ding Can had the same feeling. The blue elements around the glass were so similar to Will's eyes that it couldn't be random. It was likely that someone had chosen a similar color based on his pupils.
After their speculation about what happened to the Warrens, it is not difficult to conclude that this small attic was built by Will.
There is no information about this house in the castle's floor plan from 1201.
The reason why Will did this must have a lot to do with Sarah who once told him that his eyes were beautiful.
Even though Will could only see that his eyes were gray through the mirror, he still wanted to preserve the beautiful color that Sarah mentioned.
Ding Can became even more curious about where Sarah was going now.
She shifted her gaze to look elsewhere in the attic.
There weren't actually as many things here as she had imagined. Even though the space was small, it still looked empty.
There is a simple navy blue mattress in front of the window, and two soft and comfortable-looking pillows are piled against the wall.
A blue blanket was piled in the middle of the bed.
But if you look closely, you will find that the blankets are not simply stacked up, but rather look like small mounds with pointed tops and wide bottoms.
At the very top, there is a starfish decoration. Apart from its color, its shape actually looks like a short Christmas tree.
How could someone use a blanket to make a Christmas tree? It looks inexplicably childlike and warm.
Whoever designed this must have had an ulterior motive.
The wallpaper is covered with vertical wave-like stripes. Along the lines, many small colored lights are hung down from the ceiling. Even if there is no one here, the lights are always powered on and have a constant flashing effect.
Of course, it is also lake blue and looks a bit sparkling.
With the natural light coming in through the window, the water waves become even more realistic.
Outside the mattress, a simple partition was made with a fishing net, which was wrapped with a layer of thin threads like candied sweet potatoes, so thin that they sparkled.
Combined with two crystal glass lamps placed on the ground, it creates a very fairy-tale and dreamy effect.
Closer to me is the small rest area.
The two areas are connected, which does not affect the light exposure, has excellent light transmission effect, and gives people a full sense of design.
Two sturdy iron nails were nailed into the ceiling of the rest area. The bottom ends were shaped like hooks, and two hemp ropes were passed through them from each side.
Then connect it to a wooden board several dozen centimeters from the ground, and the simple swing is formed.
A blue checkered blanket was placed on the swing board as a cushion, placed casually with tassels hanging down, echoing the small round carpet underneath.
The carpet is round, but the surface pattern is an irregular geometric image.
In addition, there is a half-corner sofa in the corner, which is designed in the shape of an open shell. There is not even a pillow on it, but it is not monotonous at all.
Because the sofa itself comes from the ocean element which is enough.
The sofa was next to the window. Ding Can sat down on it, his body sinking quite a bit into the soft sofa cushions. Looking forward from here, he could just see the scenery outside.
Unlike the situation she was standing in just now, at that time she looked out the window and could vaguely see the shape of the mountains and forests.
But now my body is lowered and my eyes are looking upwards, and all I see is the blue sky outside and the clouds moving slowly with the wind.
I have to say that the design of the windows is indeed ingenious, and this is probably the original intention of the builder.
But if Will were sitting here now, what kind of scene would he see?
Ding Can thought about it and looked around the small attic.
All the deep and light blues in front of you will turn into the most common black and gray, and even the scenery outside will give the feeling of impending storm.
I have a comparison, so I feel uncomfortable.
So what would Will, who has lived in such a boring world since childhood, think?
Ding Can lowered her head and shook it slightly. She would probably never understand.
"There is no cabinet in this room." Xia Jialian was leaning against the wall at the door and noticed something strange.
Before, whenever they went into any house, there was always a cabinet, without exception.
Cabinets are basic furniture, so it's normal for every room to have one. After all, there are always items that need to be stored.
But the small attic in front of them had very few furnishings, so there was no possibility that they would make a mistake or miss anything.
They can barely be considered large items, but there are only three types: mattress, swing, and sofa.
This room is very meaningful to Will, and it seems more like he doesn't want the cabinet to exist here.
Gao Wenwen thought for a moment and said, "Maybe they can't find a cabinet with a similar style?"
Perhaps because he really didn't want to ruin the atmosphere, Ding Can stood up again and went straight to the mattress. It seemed to be the only place in the room where something could be hidden.
She first picked up the pillow to make sure there was nothing underneath, and then touched the blue "Christmas tree".
The blanket is very soft and has a gift-like pattern printed on it.
After taking the starfish off, she wanted to shake out the blanket, but when she was about to stand up with it in her arms, she noticed a photo underneath.
It was a photo of the two of them. Ding Can picked up the photo by pinching a corner and looked at it.
The background of the photo is on the lawn. Will is still wearing the little adult suit, and the young maid next to him is Sarah.
It was the same hairstyle he saw in the employee file.
Sarah had a bright smile on her face, and she half-squatted to be at the same height as Will so that she could fit into the frame.
Although there was nothing particularly intimate about it, Ding Can noticed Will's expression.
There was a slight curl at the corner of his lips. This was the first time she saw this child show positive emotions. Perhaps Sarah could really bring him happiness.
He really felt it was very important to put the photo in the place of the gifts on the Christmas tree.
Ding Can handed the photo to his companion. Xia Jialian took a look and said, "Will treasured his precious memories here. Sarah is the protagonist of this room. This room is to commemorate her."
He had a feeling that something bad must have happened to Sarah.
Ding Can agreed with his idea: "Mrs. Lorraine has lived in the castle for many years. She must be familiar with Sarah's affairs. Moreover, she has her own office. We are going to her room anyway, so we can look for clues."
Before leaving, she restored the blue Christmas tree to its original state.
Since it is a beautiful thought, it is better not to destroy it.
After closing the door again, they began to prepare to go through three flights of stairs and then reach the second floor.
It was almost noon and time to prepare lunch. Although the kitchen was on the first floor, the aroma of food inevitably drifted upstairs.
Gao Wenwen stretched out his nose and sniffed, and identified that it should be the smell of mushroom meat sauce with a strong milky flavor.
The most important thing is that my stomach growled twice.
He held his stomach awkwardly and made his footsteps quieter.
Xia Jialian said at the same time: "I was feeling hungry just now too. I'll go find something to eat when I have a chance to maintain my strength."
It seems that they have normal human needs in the castle. It is still unknown how long it will take to find the key. It is not a wise decision to just keep searching without replenishing their physical strength and energy.
"After lunch, let's go to the kitchen. If there's anyone there, I saw some bread in the tea room I went to before."
Shi Yan thought about the tea room she had stayed in at that time. In the cupboard where sugar cubes were kept, she did see biscuits and pastries that could be stored for a long time. They must have put some of them in the tea room for the convenience of preparing tea and snacks.
Hush~ Xia Jialian heard the sound of someone walking first and made a gesture to keep quiet.
The other three people stuck to the wall at the corner of the stairs at the same time, while Xia Jialian squatted next to the marble handrail and saw someone passing by in the corridor on the third floor.
It was a maid, holding a tray with some broken porcelain pieces on it.
The treasure house is on the third floor. These are probably the valuable ornaments that Shi Yan smashed just now in order to avoid Luo Lin.
The maid took them with her and had no intention of throwing them away. She was probably thinking about whether she could make a final remedy.
