Chapter 522: The Truth

The burglary of Professor Čapek's office soon became a hot topic throughout the Master's College.

Although it is unbelievable that someone would dare to steal in such a heavily guarded place as Master Academy, everyone is more concerned about what the other party did—the entire safe was taken away, what the hell is this?

There are even students who have been to Professor Capek's office to use their mathematical knowledge to calculate that the entire safe is about one meter high and weighs about 180 kilograms. Take it away from the safe without being discovered?

For a while, all the students in the master's college were discussing this issue. Some people thought it was driving, but driving must pass through the gate guarded by the guards. However, neither the guards nor the cameras captured any traces of vehicles entering and exiting the master's college in the evening. Not only that, but the most surprising thing was that no matter how the safe was moved, it should at least leave traces.

However, the fact is that there is no trace in the entire office except for the traces left by the place where the safe was originally placed. Even the police scratched their heads when they came.

It was as if the entire safe had just disappeared from the office.

This immediately aroused the curiosity of those students and even the teachers. Everyone was trying their best to argue and try to find a reasonable explanation——even some professors were idle and bored and opened a research group for this purpose. The theme is "Study how a safe weighing 180 kilograms disappeared out of thin air without being noticed or leaving any traces"... If there is too much funding, it can be given to other research societies.

Of course, the victim, Professor Capek, has no such leisurely thoughts. After the safe disappeared, he seemed to become more neurotic than everyone else. So much so that I have been shrinking in my office, hiding in the corner like a frightened hamster holding the leather bag that never leaves my body, never seeing anyone...

Of course, Duanmuhuai knew nothing about Professor Capek's situation. In fact, he was standing in front of the safe now, and the heavy safe door, which was only closed at first, was now like a piece of paper. The thick kraft paper was torn directly and roughly, it looked like a courier box, because the recipient was too lazy to open the box and directly tore it into pieces... Well, it's the same for Duanmuhuai anyway.

However, the things stored in the safe are surprising.

"……………love letter?"

Looking at the love letters in his hands that were written in such a numb and trembling tone, Duanmuhuai only felt that he was not well. The words in it are so pretentious that it makes him want to cry... Well, maybe it's because Duanmuhuai has never written a love letter, so he can't understand this approach.

It's just that these love letters were not written to Charlotte, but to a woman named Maria Bell.

Of course, Duanmuhuai was not interested in love letters, and even less interested in other women, but fortunately, in addition to hiding his own love letters, the professor's safe finally stored some useful materials and photos.

Among them, there is also a record of the seminar on Capek.

According to the description in the document, the Capek Research Society originally originated from a seance meeting held by Dr. Capek a year ago... Well, European nobles always like these unsightly things, to be honest Duanmu Huai couldn't understand what these aristocrats were doing every day when they had nothing to do, such as seances and psychics.

You say it’s like Japanese ghost movies, a few ignorant girls make a fox fairy to play for excitement, how old are you, and you are still fascinated by these messy things all day long, is it because you can’t smoke anymore? The wine is not good? Women are not fun anymore? Or is it not enough drugs?

If you have nothing to do, you have to die, right?

Although I don't know what enlightenment these idiots got from the séance, but after the séance ended, they made a decision to open the gate of Tartar and obtain the supreme great power.

The gate of Tartar, the gate of hell controlled by the goddess of the underworld Hecate in the legend... Well, it really is because I am impatient and have nothing to do.

Then here, Duanmu Huai saw a familiar name again.

Professor Čapek is a professor of the master's college, and at the same time, he is also one of the guests of the Silver Twilight Cabin...

Well, it's the Silver Twilight Cabin again, and now it's understandable why these idiots have nothing to do and die.

To be honest, Silver Twilight Cabin, as a secret cult organization, was able to develop and grow in the upper class, and the role played by an idiot like Professor Capek who has nothing to do and likes to die is a great contribution...

At this point, things are clear.

The seven psychopaths belonging to the Silver Twilight Cabin held a seance, and then somehow enlightened, they planned to open the gates of hell. They used the spirit party to sign a contract with Charnos, the world where the Gate of Tartar is located—that is, the dark city that Duanmuhuai and Mary had visited before, and thus obtained the monsters that were the half-body of their souls. Next, it seems that whoever can cultivate the monster will be able to reach and open the gate of Tartar...

And those girls who were killed on the street were sacrifices at the mouth of monsters. Their bodies were torn apart and their souls were devoured for tribute and sacrifice.

Well, now Duanmuhuai finally understands why these guys are so persistent in chasing after the golden pupil. In their eyes, Mary's golden pupil is like the meat of a Tang monk. If you eat it, you can live forever and become a fairy. It's no wonder that these monsters will chase after Mary, and if he is a monster, he will also chase... After all, there is no Monkey King beside Tang Seng.

It's just that this group of guys are just like the monsters in Journey to the West, and they are quite polite. They don't rush up one by one, but send them off one by one... Isn't this the gourd baby saving grandpa.

Of course, in the process of exploration, they were not without losses. The woman named Maria Bell that Professor Capek was thinking of died because of this. The Advent of the Seven also disbanded, but the idea of seeking the Tartar Gate did not change.

Then in the second year, Charlotte Bronte took the initiative to find Professor Capek and joined his research association.

In other words, she also joined the exploration of the Tatar Gate, and... According to Professor Capek, her soul seems to have successfully entered the Tartar Gate, and what remains here is just a pure body .

But the question is, how did Charlotte do it?

Just as Duanmuhuai was thinking, suddenly, a burst of rapid phone ringing, Duanmuhuai picked up the receiver, and then Mary's slightly panicked voice came from the receiver.

"Hi, I'm Mary Clarissa Christie, may I ask..."

"It's me, what's wrong?"

"Ah, sir... that's great..."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's deep voice, Mary breathed a sigh of relief.

"Just now, I received an email from Xia Li! It was sent to me by Xia Li the day before she passed out!"

"oh?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai frowned.

"Very well, come to me, just right, I have something very important to tell you..."

Not long after, there was a hasty knock on the door, and Duan Muhuai walked over to open the door, only to see Mary standing there panting.

"come in."

"Yes, sorry to disturb you..."

While talking, Mary walked into the room, and when she came to the living room, Mary saw the safe right there with the door ripped open.

“……………………”

Looking at the safe, Mary froze there, speechless. It was Duanmuhuai's voice that brought her back to her senses.

"Where's the letter?"

"Ah, here it is."

As she spoke, Mary carefully took out the letter from her arms and handed it over, while Duanmuhuai also lowered her head and stared at the letter.

"...What the hell is this??"

What was written on it was completely incomprehensible to Duanmu Huai, it seemed to be a mess of gibberish.

"Ah, this is the Kadasi inscription. Xia Li and I replaced the pronunciation of the inscription with letters, and then wrote it into an article. This is what Xia Li and I occasionally use to communicate... It can be regarded as a secret game."

"........."

Even the games of the Department of History are so hard-core, so powerful.

"Come and read."

Duanmuhuai decisively raised his hands in surrender.

"OK."

Mary took the letter and looked at the writing again.

【Dear Mary...by the time you read this letter, I'm afraid I'm already dead. Even if I don't, I'm sure... I won't be able to enjoy afternoon tea with you and Axie again. Sorry, Mary, you must be very confused right now. I don't even know what's going on, I think I'm confusing you.

Sorry, but that's fine. You don't know about this matter. So... Please, if you... If you are involved in any danger because you are too worried about me, please, stop.

Forget me, forget me, forget all the disgusting things, all the horrible things together. Please forget about me, I'm sure I'll be fine, please, Mary... Please study hard, and be good friends with Axie, and you will live happily tomorrow... Please, please, my lovely Mary , my favorite Mary, don't cry, keep smiling... Mary Clarissa, I wish you happiness...]

In the end, Mary bowed her head, with tears in her eyes, trembling uncontrollably.

But Duanmu Huai looked at Mary suspiciously, and then at the letter paper.

You say you are just friends?

How can I feel the same breath as that between Ann and Guleya?

Don’t you also read as friends and write about that?

In other words, why are there people like this around me?

Ann and Gulea, Hauser and Seizer, and now Mary and Charlotte?

It's not over, is it?

But this letter can be regarded as filling in the most important piece of the whole puzzle.

"Exactly, what I want to tell you is also related to this."

After Mary calmed down, Duanmuhuai spoke, and then he took out the documents and explained the situation to Mary in detail.

It has to be said that when Mary read the document in front of her, she was completely stunned.

It never occurred to her that her childhood friend who had been with her all this time would take the initiative to join a cult organization!

Moreover, judging from this letter, she had already contacted Professor Capek years ago!

This, how is this possible?

Mary couldn't believe what she saw, and instinctively wanted to deny it, but her rationality told her that it was indeed true, but...

"Why? Why did Charlie do this??"

"Even if you ask me, I don't know..."

Duanmuhuai spread his hands helplessly. Actually, looking at Mary in front of him, he had a guess. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the letter from Xia Li to Mary was simply a love letter, but Mary herself didn't seem to respond to it. That is to say, one of the pair is curved and the other is straight?

Then is Luo Hua deliberately flowing water and ruthless?

So the crooked one gave up on himself and went after some Tatar Gate? Could it be that the Gate of Tartar can even do this?

Of course, this is just Duanmu Huai's guess. After all, it may be that there are too many Ji guys around him, so everyone looks like Ji guys...

Maybe, they are pure friendship?

perhaps?

But fortunately, although she was greatly stimulated, Mary still upheld her ladylike demeanor and quickly calmed down. It's just that she was holding the letter paper and documents in her hand tightly, and she couldn't say anything for a while. Duanmuhuai also winked at Lorena, who immediately brought Mary a cup of black tea.

In fact, logically speaking, Duanmu Huai didn't need to tell the whole story. But he never does this kind of thing. To be honest, in the game, Duanmuhuai often encounters and investigates some kind of truth, and at the end he will pop up the option to tell the person-at this time, Duanmuhuai will basically choose to tell.

The reason is very simple. After all, this is someone else's business. No matter what the truth is, no matter whether the other party commits suicide in despair or cheers up after knowing the truth, it is his own choice. Duanmuhuai can't do this kind of thing to deceive the other party with the idea of being good for the other party. What kind of gentle lies and cruel truth are not what he should decide.

The so-called don't persuade others to be kind without suffering from others. In the same way, you are just a melon eater in the whole thing, and you are not a person who experienced it. Why should you influence other people's lives according to your own ideas?

Just like now, Duanmuhuai can obviously hide part of the content and only tell Mary about the Silver Twilight Cabin and the Gate of Tartar, but he still directly revealed the relationship between Xia Li and this cult organization... The reason is The reason is that it is not him who is friends with Charlotte, so what to do is Mary's business, and he is not qualified to make decisions for Mary.

"Thanks……………"

After taking a sip of black tea, Mary's mood seemed to calm down a lot.

"Sorry, I'm in a mess, I think I should go back and think about it..."

"It's okay, I understand."

"So, sorry, I'm sorry."

While talking, Mary stood up, and as if to change the subject, she looked directly at the safe in the living room.

"May I ask if this safe belongs to Professor Capek..."

"yes."

"Uh...how did you get it back?"

"That's how I brought it back."

“……………………”

I don't know why, when these words came out of Duanmu Huai's mouth, Mary felt particularly convincing.
