Lily Mowen in the photo was born exactly three centuries ago. Xiaolan wiped her hands with cold sweat and found out that she was Lily's ancestor.
but……
"God has given Miss Lily Morven the unique ability to seance spirits. In the field of psychic analysis where nobles gather, Miss Lily Morven has a large number of followers and has become a well-known seance master..."
The entire book is filled with the life experience of Lily Morvern. Among them, at the age of thirty-four, she met her husband, and of course her husband also married into Morvern Manor and became a daughter-in-law.
She became a member of the Morven family, and her life ended abruptly when she was forty-four years old.
The historical record did not mention why Lily Morvin died. Xiaolan wondered if the spiritual master could predict the date of her death, so she closed the first book and took out the second one.
The first page is also a photo of a woman. This photo is much clearer. The woman's appearance is somewhat similar to Lily Morven, but her eyes are less serious and more charming.
"Lily Morven-II..."
What are they doing?...
Xiaolan took out the third book.
"Lily Morven III..."
It turns out that the Morven family was inherited by women.
In this way, Lily is the current real owner of Morvern Manor.
Xiaolan nodded and looked at Lily II's experience again.
She was born in...
Why does this date look familiar?
Xiaolan opened the first book again.
Lily II's birth date and Lily I's death are on the same day.
The third book...
As expected.
Lily III was also born with the death of Lily II.
In addition, Lily's mother also died on the day she gave birth to Lily.
Everything seemed to be planned.
Just like a relay, one generation after another, Lily Morven has inherited something forever.
Except for the first Lily, the life experiences of the other descendants are much simpler. The second Lily became an actor, the third was a philanthropist, and the fourth became an honorary nurse...
Everyone is doing ordinary jobs, keeping Lily Morven's bloodline and this castle intact to this day.
Xiaolan had just put the fourth family tree back on the bookshelf and was about to take out the fifth one when a strange sound suddenly came from the darkness.
Like... a string of laughter.
Xiaolan's movements suddenly stopped.
She walked out of the bookshelf, raised the candle, and looked at the dark corridor between the bookshelves on both sides.
There were little bits of dust floating in the air, and there seemed to be only flames dancing around.
There was silence all around.
After a while, Xiaolan asked lightly, "Who?"
There is no sound.
But Xiaolan firmly believed that she heard correctly just now.
That was definitely a laugh.
"Don't pretend to be a ghost." Xiaolan said.
A few more minutes passed.
From the edge of the first row of bookshelves, something slowly poked out.
Xiaolan tensed up her nerves.
"Why are you here?" Xiaolan's voice seemed to be trembling.
Those eyes were still the same, looking at him with a half-smile.
Walking through this dark corridor, through countless flying dust and a little bit of flames, Xiaolan still recognized this impressive look in her eyes.
"Shouldn't I be the one to ask you this question?"
Moses put his hands behind his back and walked out from behind the bookshelf with graceful steps.
Xiaolan became alert.
Who knows what is hidden behind this child, it could be an ax, a stone, or even a gun...
"I know what you have done." Xiaolan sneered and said.
"Oh?" Moses tilted his head, pretending to be confused, "What have I done?"
"Mr. Mo Wen's previous wives," Xiao Lan said without the slightest fear, "were all killed by you?"
Moses' eyes widened and he shook his head innocently, "Of course not, why do you think so?"
"Isn't it?" Xiaolan asked forcefully.
Moses stared at Xiaolan's face for a while and suddenly smiled. He took out his right hand from behind, covered his mouth and lowered his head and smiled for a while before raising his head again, "Why do you think that I killed my biological mother? She was killed by Lily.
It’s killing me.”
Xiaolan wanted to use a tape recorder to record everything Moses said.
He admitted that several of Mr. Malvern's other wives had died at his hands.
"Besides, the words of the previous wives... were too vague," Moses laughed, put his hands behind his back, and looked at Xiaolan with a smile, "You will also die in my hands."
Ah this...
Xiaolan had never seen such an arrogant child, and was speechless for a moment.
"However, you are indeed the most special," Moses raised his chin and suppressed his smile, "As you said, you seem to be really not afraid and very interesting. Of course, I don't want you to be pretending.
"
Xiaolan looked at Moses and asked, "How did you know I was here?"
"Of course I know," Moses said, again acting as if he was taking it for granted, "because I've always been behind you and I've always been by your side."
Xiaolan reacted suddenly, "What did you do to her?"
The little red-haired maid.
If Moses had been following him from the beginning, the poor maid...
"Don't worry," Moses waved his hand to express comfort, "not everyone is as smart as you. That little guy... doesn't know that there is anyone else active in the castle at night except you. Never
People know it, so no one has ever discovered it.”
Xiaolan felt relieved.
"How about it?" Moses turned sideways slightly, stretched out his right hand in a very gentlemanly manner, and made a gesture of inviting Xiaolan, "Would you like to come with me to explore the final secret of this castle, which is what you want to know most?
secret?"
"Secret?" Xiaolan turned her head and glanced at the historical records on the bookshelf.
"That tower, that balcony," Moses raised his voice, his tone sounding like he was reciting, "Isn't this what you have always wondered about?"
Xiaolan bit her lower lip lightly.
This person knows everything.
"How?" Moses still maintained that action, "Do you act like a smart man and refuse the invitation of a dangerous person like me and continue to hide in vain? Or make a seemingly stupid choice and follow me towards the dark minaret?
The room above?"
Xiaolan didn't answer.
Moses seemed to understand Xiaolan's thoughts. He pursed his lips and smiled, turned around, opened the door to the study, and walked out.
Smart or stupid, she doesn't care.
Answer.
She wants to know the answer.
And she has always believed that the so-called choices are actually just different paths leading to the same result.
Xiaolan clenched her fists, took steps, followed Moses' footsteps, and walked out.
