13 Mink Street

"Plop!"

The body of the Chase man was thrown into the cuboid pit in the hearse. Alfred got out of the car, closed the door of the rear compartment of the hearse, took out a wad of money from his pocket, and handed it to the man in front of him. The Chase woman who covered herself while carrying the dead body.

The woman was still holding the iron box that had been pried open with great difficulty, and there were not as many rupees in it as the stack in Alfred's hand.

But the woman pushed Alfred's hand away,

road:

"This is what I should do."

talking,

The woman leaned her back against the car door, turned her head and asked:

"Do you have a cigarette?"

"have."

Alfred doesn't actually smoke, but when he met Karen for the first time, the scene of a great existence leading him to smoke and laugh with Ms. Molly really shocked him;

Therefore, from now on, he will keep cigarettes on his body at all times, so that the young master will hand over one whenever he is idle.

If his image on the murals in the future is to give smoke to a great being, he will also feel very satisfied. Believers who observe the murals will definitely think that he is very close to the great being.

The woman lit a cigarette, took a sip, and said:

"I made a wish to God, and God answered my prayer."

Alfred laughed:

"Maybe God didn't hear it."

The woman shrugged and said:

"No matter who heard it, to me, it is like a god, isn't it?"

"You make a lot of sense, but you really don't want the money. After all, your husband just died."

"You don't understand Chase people."

The woman left this sentence, hugged the iron box, and said as she walked out:

"We don't actually like being poor, but we really like being homeless."

Watching the woman go away, Alfred said to himself, "I used to think the same way."

now...

"It's nice to have a plan."

If I hadn't taken out the ID issued by Diss in front of that powerful existence of the Cult of Order, then my best ending now would be to go to the night market to pick out a suitable one-eyed eye mask.

Alfred walked back to the big circus tent from the parking lot. At this moment, there was no one checking the tickets at the door, and no one would care if he didn't buy a ticket. Because the performance is already halfway through, the guests inside may come out for convenience or to get some air, and there is no way to check the tickets.

when entering,

Just as the performer Miss Mandira emerged from the water tank with her arms raised high, the atmosphere of the audience was extremely high.

The aisle in the middle was crowded with people, Alfred could only choose to go deep from the edge, and then go around to the VIP area from the edge of the stage.

When he passed the edge of the stage, Alfred glanced at Miss Mandilla in the water tank with some doubts. He felt that this lady gave him a strange feeling.

It's just that right now he's still hunched over for fear of blocking the view of the audience, and he doesn't have the time to stop and use his succubus eyes to see something.

When approaching the VIP area, Alfred saw the young master was burying his head in Miss Eunice's arms.

Ah, as expected of a great existence, the progress is so fast.

In fact, leaving aside other abnormal factors, Karen can already give Alfred a different feeling.

He is very calm, calm in all aspects of dealing with people, he is very rational, but never resists his emotional side;

This state of mind generally appears in more open-minded elderly people, because they are close to death and can see the real gains and losses more clearly.

Walking to the edge of the VIP area, just as Alfred was about to raise his hand to greet the young master to indicate that he had returned,

He saw the young master who was facing Miss Eunice suddenly turn his face to the water tank on the stage;

In the young master's eyes, there is a chill;

at the same time,

The young master moved his lips and said a phrase.

Alfred's ostensible career is a radio host. He has always had a unique talent for language, and even has a very deep research. He even knows how to speak lips.

"Go...die?"

What does it mean?

Not Maclean (Mandarin languages ​​such as Wien and Ruilan).

Suddenly, there was movement on the stage.

Alfred immediately turned his head and looked towards the stage, just in time to see the scene where the performer, Miss Mandilla, carried the magician into the water tank.

The other audience thought it was the second stage of the program and cheered strongly;

But Alfred could tell from the details that something was wrong.

He immediately covered his left eye with one hand, and the left eye immediately turned red. Through the gap between his fingers, he saw bursts of black air radiating from the female performer in a long skirt in the water tank.

This is a... dead body!

Alfred looked at his young master again, and the previous movements and mouth shapes of the young master reappeared in his mind:

"Go...die?"

He still doesn't know what these two syllables refer to, but he can feel that it must have a specific direction.

No,

is that language,

The language of that hymn!

Alfred immediately came to his senses, the words the young master just spoke were the curse of the evil god!

At this moment, Alfred's heart was completely filled with shock.

But then,

It's just a palpitation with chills down the back.

fortunately,

Fortunately, the old man has already left here. If he was here at this time, wouldn't he also sense it?

Although the other party must have his own means of insight, for example, he used the succubus eye to penetrate before, but Alfred knew that for a powerful existence of this level, even if they were not in a state of deliberate insight, they still have a power beyond A keen perception that ordinary people can understand.

"ah……"

Alfred's knees were a little weak, and he subconsciously supported Lent's shoulders with his hands before sitting down.

almost,

just a little bit,

Fortunately, the old man is gone.

If he didn't leave, wouldn't he be about to discover the identity of the young master?

No matter how powerful an existence is, when he first came, he was still weak and would encounter various accidents, so this is why he has the configuration of squires;

Whether the chosen subordinate is suitable is directly related to whether the great existence can safely survive its initial period of weakness.

Fortunately,

The young master's vision is very precise, and he is worthy of being a great existence, because he chose an excellent follower, that is, Master Diss.

But even so...

Alfred leaned forward subconsciously, looking in the direction of the young master;

Danger is everywhere.

A circus staff came up on the stage and pushed the water tank behind the scenes. The audience was a little puzzled. Is this the closing ceremony of the show?

But soon, when several flaming rings were brought onto the stage, the audience's eyes and attention all fell on them.

The new acrobatic show continued, and the show continued.

"Let's go," Karen said to Eunice.

Mandila was a corpse, and now even the magician is a corpse.

There must be a problem with this circus, because its operating mode has surpassed the level of juggling.

But Karen doesn't plan to go to explore the secret now. Although Alfred is here, to be honest, Alfred can't give himself a 100% sense of security.

In addition, Mina and other four children and Eunice are also here, so now is not the time to show off.

Send Eunice and the children home safely, and then report to Diss, and then hand it over to Diss to investigate and deal with.

Only in this way is it safe and sound;

As for the regret that the kids didn't see the whole circus show, well, let them regret it.

"Okay." Eunice nodded. She thought that Karen was not feeling well, and immediately said to Mina beside her, "Mina, let's leave and go home first."

Although Mina still wanted to continue watching the show, she nodded sensibly immediately and sent a message to Krissara and the others.

"Uncle Afu, brother said we are going home now."

"Okay, okay." Alfred was eager to leave here now, "You follow me, we will go around in front and go out."

"Um."

Alfred took the lead, the children followed behind him, and Karen also took Eunice's hand. The group walked to a position close to the stage, and then marched towards the corner.

But at this moment, a large ball hanging above that was thought to be for decoration suddenly cracked, and dense pieces of paper like snowflakes poured down from the inside.

The microphone sounded:

"This is tonight's lucky draw. Anyone who gets a piece of blue paper on one side can come directly to our stage to receive the prize. The prize is a large colorful lollipop.

First come first served! "

In front of Alfred, several circus workers rolled out a vending cart filled with lollipops.

At this time, the audience seemed to be looking for pieces of paper on the ground. After all, there were many children in the audience. The children searched for themselves, and their parents would help them find them. finding.

Sarah, Lunt, and Chris also wanted to bend down and squat down to find the pieces of paper on the ground. Karen yelled at them directly:

"Get up and get out!"

The children had never seen their elder brother look so angry, and they didn't dare to look at any more scraps of paper, and followed Alfred to continue walking.

The lollipop car that might have blocked the road was kicked hard by Alfred, forced it to stop abruptly, and then pulled them, and when the children passed by, the young master and Miss Eunice also After coming over, he let go and chased after the children again.

"I found it!"

"I found it too!"

A group of children ran towards the lollipop cart holding a piece of paper, and there were many adults among them.

Those who rushed over in a hurry, Alfred deliberately knocked them away with his arms, and didn't care whether others would fall down. In short, he couldn't let the team behind him be washed away by the crowd.

After much difficulty, everyone finally walked out of the big tent of the circus.

Karen began to count the number of people, four children, one is missing.

"Go back to the hearse first," Karen said.

Alfred immediately said: "Master, please drive the ladies back in my car, I will drive the hearse."

Karen hesitated for a moment, glanced at Alfred, then nodded.

When everyone walked to the parking place, Karen opened the door of Alfred's Santland car and motioned for the children to sit in the back seat. Fortunately, the four children were not fat, but they all squeezed in;

After closing the car door, Eunice smiled at Karen and sat in the passenger seat, but she still said to Karen, "I can also drive."

"It's okay, I can."

Karen opened the door of the driver's seat and didn't rush to sit in. Instead, he looked at Alfred who was standing beside the hearse. He glanced at the big circus tent, then got into the car and started the car.

The car drove on the road quickly. Because Karen's expression was a little serious when he came out, none of the four children in the back seat chattered. Even Lent and Chris fell asleep very quickly.

Eunice has been sitting quietly next to Karen, and she will look at Karen when Karen looks in the mirror.

It may be that he wants to go home early, or it may be that although he has recovered from the encounter at the circus, the feeling of fear is still affecting him, so Karen changed his usual steady driving habit and drove at a fast speed this time.

After entering the city, because Mine Street is closer, Karen drove into Mine Street first. Originally, Karen planned to take Sarah home, but Rott seemed to be waiting for his daughter to come home tonight, so the shoe repair stall even It was late and kept confiscated.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Cullen, Sarah must have caused you trouble again today."

"No, Sarah is very good, I'll go back first."

"Be careful on the road."

Next,

Rhine Street is closer to here than Mink Street, but Karen still drove to Mink Street first. Mina got out of the car with her younger siblings, and the three said goodbye to Eunice together:

"goodbye teacher."

"good night, teacher."

"You guys also go to bed earlier."

Lunt yawned and said in a daze, "Teacher and brother, you should go to bed earlier."

Eunice heard it, but said nothing, and got back in the car.

Karen started the car again, and the next step was to send Eunice home, probably because the children had arrived home safely, so Karen finally calmed down.

"I'm sorry I didn't let you see the show in its entirety."

Karen will not apologize for his actions during the performance, firstly, his mind was not clear at that time, and secondly, what is the meaning of this apology? Guaranteed never to do it again?

The woman didn't say anything, and it would be boring to mention it by herself.

"No, it's okay, your body is more important."

"It's not because of my body, but because I fell into the water when I was a child. That experience left me with a huge psychological shadow, so after seeing that performance, my emotions suddenly lost control."

Karen would rather let Eunice think that she has a mental problem than let her think that there is a problem with her body.

"So that's it, I see." Eunice smiled instead, "I had a great day, Karen."

"Me too."

Karen felt that what he said was a bit against his will. People went to the circus to see a live performance, and he was arranged to have a panoramic and in-depth experience tonight.

After sending Eunice to the door of the house, Karen hugged Eunice as usual and watched her walk home. Karen sat back in the car and drove past the Piaget house when he drove out of the Rhine Street. The lights at Ajie's house were off, and so were the lights at Mrs. Seymour's next door.

Karen drove back home. When she went upstairs, she heard Lent and Chris on the second floor chattering about the barbecue in the afternoon and the circus in the evening. Aunt Mary and Aunt Winnie were with them. See Karen When Lun came up, Aunt Mary got up immediately and asked:

"Karen, let's have some supper."

"Thank you, auntie, but I'm not hungry. I'll talk to grandpa for a while."

"Grandpa went out. Just after Ah Fu came back, he also went upstairs to find grandpa, and then grandpa went out with Ah Fu."

"Oh, that's it, okay, then I'll take a shower and rest, I'm a little tired from driving today."

"Okay, I've packed your clothes for you."

"Thank you, Auntie."

Karen went up to the third floor and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

The feeling of hot water washing the body is very comfortable.

After taking a shower, he changed into pajamas and walked out of the bathroom warmed by water vapor. The temperature difference was obvious. As soon as the chill hit, Karen seemed to see himself locked in the water tank again, and the feeling of despair struck again. heart.

Karen had to support the wall with his hands. After stabilizing for a while, he let out a long sigh of relief and returned to the bedroom. Tonight, instead of sitting at the desk and reading a book as usual, he lay down directly under the covers.

Pressing the position of his neck with both hands, let the quilt fit him tightly without any dead ends, he felt like he was wrapped in a silkworm chrysalis.

Eyelids grew heavier and Karen fell asleep.

...

At 7:30 in the morning, Karen woke up on time. Looking at the sunlight shining through the window outside, she felt that she had finally regained her vitality.

Go down to the second floor and start eating the breakfast prepared by my aunt.

"Has Grandpa had breakfast?" Karen asked.

"Today is Sunday, and grandpa went to church very early."

Karen nodded, last night Diss and Alfred should have gone to the location of the circus, the matter has probably been resolved, or there is no longer any threat, otherwise grandpa would not be able to go to church in the morning;

After all, Diss didn't have much loyalty to the one enshrined in the church.

"What about uncle?" Karen asked.

Generally speaking, uncle will come out to have breakfast together at this time.

"There is a welfare order. Call us. Your uncle and Ron went to pick it up. Ah Fu went out with your grandpa too late last night, so he didn't come here this morning."

"Oh, that's how it is."

After Karen had breakfast, he went down to the yard on the first floor. The big golden retriever ran over and rubbed Karen's trouser legs.

At this time, the hearse returned to the door of the house.

Ron opened the back door of the hearse and began to unload the "guests" on the stretcher below.

Karen also walked over to help, and very familiarly helped Ron stabilize the stretcher below.

"Are you ready, young master?"

"It's done."

"Okay, let's go."

The stretcher and the corpse lying on it were pushed down together.

"There is one more, young master, please wait a moment, I will move it out." Ron returned to the hearse and bent down to take out the second body from the pit.

At this time, a gust of wind blew, and the white cloth that originally covered the corpse slipped due to inertia, and Karen saw a familiar woman's face:

Mandira!

Karen did not expect to see Mandila's body at the door of the house at this time. The suffocating and desperate scene that he had been trying to avoid and resolve last night struck again. He subconsciously stretched out his hand to cover his forehead, and his figure shook.

Suddenly, the corpse lying on the stretcher stretched out a hand and grabbed Karen's wrist to help him stabilize his balance.

Karen bowed her head,

Seeing that the hand that had just helped him was retracted again.

"Master, the second one is here, please take it again." Ron shouted in the car.

"Okay, here we come." Karen responded.

At this time, an even more shocking scene appeared. Mandira sat up directly from the stretcher with her eyes closed, swung her hands backwards, and grabbed the two wheels of the stretcher delivered by Ron.

Ron, who was being carried down on the car, couldn't see what was going on under the car because of the line of sight blocked by the stretcher car and the corpse above and the height of the hearse. Instead, he shouted in surprise:

"Wow, young master, you grasped it really firmly this time, it feels so strong!"
