Most likely, there will be no more problems tonight. However, there is always a chance of something happening. After briefly explaining to Long Jiujiu what happened with the bearded man, Shao Qi returned to the third floor of the clock tower and diligently served as a lookout.
After a while, the yawning Long Jiujiu also reached the third floor. After wandering around for a few minutes, he became bored because of his limited vision and saw nothing. He said, "I'll go take a look down there and ask the patrolmen about the situation."
"Okay, be careful."
"What if, what if..." As he stepped onto the stairs, Long Jiujiu turned around and said, "What if I fall, please pull me out in time!"
"knew."
After receiving the reply, Long Jiujiu went down the stairs and came to the ground. He looked around and selected a torch light source. Long Jiujiu moved over and greeted him in a familiar manner, "Hey, brother, you've worked hard. Did you find anything?"
Taking full advantage of his social prowess, Long Jiujiu began to get information from everyone, and at the same time, he focused on finding out the news about the eyewitness Aubrey and the butcher Ward.
…
Like a salted fish lying flat, Lin Xiaoman in the darkness was counting on his fingers, calculating the flow of time.
Finally, finally... she counted!
If there is no flow rate difference, the system will recover in a few minutes.
Ah, dawn is finally coming.
He continued to count... After counting more than 300 numbers, suddenly, a force came, which was completely irresistible, just like a washing machine starting to work. The world was spinning, and Lin Xiaoman was thrown out dizzyly, and then landed on the ground in a mess like a dog falling on shit.
Huh?
The weak light of the oil lamp was very dim, but for Lin Xiaoman who had just come out of the darkness, it was extremely bright!
Even though he was still a little dazed from being thrown in the washing machine, Lin Xiaoman understood: She's out!
Less than three seconds after he appeared, a chat group popped up. Long Jiujiu: "Xiao Linzi, are you out of luck? If not, let me know."
He quickly scanned the scene in front of him and confirmed that he was in old Charlie's room on the second floor of the clock tower. After concluding that the environment was safe, Lin Xiaoman: "Squeak..."
Long Jiujiu: "Yeah, he's still alive? Did he die?"
Lin Xiaoman: "Maybe, it didn't fall off?"
Lin Xiaoman wasn't sure. Maybe she'd already died when she was thrown out? It was her first time using the resurrection cheat, and she had no experience!
"Master Shao, I'd like to request Butler Xiaobai to scan it."
Shao Qi: "Okay."
Then it was time to connect the system. While in the scanning room, Lin Xiaoman quickly got up from the ground. Although he was thrown into the dirt and looked extremely embarrassed, it didn't matter. No one saw it, so he still had his face.
While standing up and patting his clothes, Lin Xiaoman turned his head slightly and saw the large brass mirror behind him.
So, the time came and she was spit out by the mirror?
Can I still go in now?
Lin Xiaoman turned around and raised his hand to touch the mirror, but this time, he felt the unique coldness and hard texture of metal between his fingers.
Oh, no.
Conclusion: The brass mirror is definitely related to monsters.
But what's so special about it? Furthermore, Erica's memory ends in complete black, which is, if not exactly similar to this black, exactly the same! Could there be a connection?
Just as Lin Xiaoman was pondering the mystery of the mirror, Butler Xiaobai spoke up, "Master Xiaolin, I've scanned it, and your five resurrections haven't decreased."
Lin Xiaoman: "Compared to last time, is there anything different about me?"
Butler Xiaobai: "I didn't find anything unusual."
Lin Xiaoman: "Okay, thank you."
Butler Xiaobai: 'You're welcome.'
Almost as soon as Lin Xiaoman got the results, Long Jiujiu started shouting in the group, "How is it? What did you find? Xiao Linzi, what did you do in the mirror?"
Lin Xiaoman: "No, I didn't fall down. I didn't notice anything. The mirror was still pitch black, without a single ray of light. I was counting numbers and calculating time the whole time."
Long Jiujiu: "Maybe there's a trigger mechanism? Didn't you try to figure it out?"
Lin Xiaoman: "Of course I searched, but I didn't find anything!!"
Shao Qi: "I think the brass mirror might be a magic seal."
Lin Xiaoman: "Ah?? Demon Sealing Device?"
Long Jiujiu: "Well, Uncle Shao, now that you mention it, I think they look a bit like each other!"
Lin Xiaoman, who was experiencing this magical world with monsters for the first time, decided not to express his opinion because he had never seen a magic-sealing device.
Long Jiujiu: "If it really is a demon-sealing device, how do you use it? If you carry such a large brass mirror to seal a demon, you'll tire yourself to death before you even catch up to it."
Shao Qi: "I don't know either. The Demon Sealing Device is just a guess."
Lin Xiaoman: "By the way, where are you now? Besides the mirror, have you found anything else tonight?"
Unable to figure out the secret of the mirror, Lin Xiaoman thought about joining the main force.
Long Jiujiu: "I'm chatting with the patrol. I asked about Aubrey and Ward, and there's nothing unusual. They reportedly returned to their house before sunset. They didn't go out at night, so they should be sleeping soundly. One of the patrol knights told me that he passed by Ward's residence and heard loud snoring."
Shao Qi: "I was on the third floor of the clock tower. In the middle of the night, around 2 a.m., I discovered the demon possessed person..."
Shao Qi simply repeated what happened and then threw a character sketch into the group.
Shao Qi: "That person looks like this, do you know him?"
Looking at the sketch, Lin Xiaoman could only say that he was indeed a professional. The drawing was as close as a camera. Lin Xiaoman knew it at a glance because she had seen this bearded man before during the day.
The man looked fierce and returned to the village early before work time. Lin Xiaoman asked out of curiosity and then found out.
Lin Xiaoman: "I know. This man's name is Zachary. He works as an assistant to Butcher Ward at the slaughterhouse, kind of like an apprentice."
Long Jiujiu: "Oh, it's confirmed. There's something wrong with that slaughterhouse in the village."
Lin Xiaoman: "How about we go and tie up Ward and force him to confess?"
Shao Qi: "It's too late. It's probably useless."
Lin Xiaoman: "Then let's go tomorrow night?"
Long Jiujiu: "If he explodes and blames us, we might be burned to death as monsters."
Shao Qi: "This is indeed a problem."
