Chapter 432 Miss Wendy Bruce
Chapter 432 Miss Wendy Bruce
"Hello? I'm Ivy."
Ivy greeted Wendy cautiously, and the girl opposite smiled even more happily.
The little girl's lovely smile made everyone feel warm. Others let down their guard and took the initiative to introduce themselves to the little girl.
"I'm John Watson," said Joshua.
“My name is James Moriarty,” said Holmes.
"I am Qin Shi Huang." The three looked at Jacob.
"I'm your father." Everyone looked at Marquis Sebastian.
Ivy frowned in confusion. Considering his age, it seemed possible.
"You wouldn't?" Holmes asked exactly what Ivy was thinking.
"Hahaha, sorry, it was just a little joke..."
The Marquis immediately threw his head back and burst into laughter. After he finished laughing, he straightened his body and introduced himself seriously.
"I am Marquis Sebastian Luke Buckley, a guest invited by your father, Chandler Bruce. You may not have seen me. When I hurried over, you were already lying in the hospital. I am very sorry that such a disturbing thing happened in your house."
"Are you all right, Miss Wendy Bruce?"
The Marquis bowed slightly to Wendy, and Wendy immediately picked up her skirt and awkwardly returned the greeting to the Marquis.
Someone mentioned before that Wendy was injured after falling down the stairs. Her arm and right foot were diagnosed as fractured and were covered with a thick layer of plaster.
So, why didn't she just stay in bed and have a good rest, but instead intercepted everyone here?
"Someone woke me up from my sleep."
As if she knew what everyone was thinking, she smiled and gave the answer.
"She often appears in my dreams, comforting me, hugging me, and kissing me. After my mother feeds me that strange medicine, she will definitely appear to wake me up and guide me..."
"I understand, you are possessed." Jacob took out the thick Bible from somewhere.
"Wait a moment!" Holmes immediately stopped Jacob's chattering.
"Is the person who appeared in your dream a woman named Amy?" Ivy said slowly with her eyes wide open.
Wendy nodded, then she took out a golden chain from her pocket.
Before everyone could see the object clearly, they saw her dragging her injured leg and limping towards Joshua.
"You want to give me something?"
Joshua squatted down in advance, slowly stretched out his hands, and took the gold that Wendy had tried hard to hand over.
It feels cool to the touch, and if you listen carefully you can hear the sound of gears turning.
"It's Mr. Jacob's lost pocket watch!"
Joshua hurriedly stood up and showed the object in his hand to everyone.
"I found it in the corridor outside the room." Wendy said quietly. She turned to Ivy and stared at her. "Amy told me."
Ivy felt frightened when the "doll" stared at her. This "doll" was completely different from Luna's Aurora.
Aurora is a soul that is one inside and out, while Wendy's exquisite appearance seems to hide many secrets that cannot be easily seen through.
"This kid is great. He found my things and he's a good citizen!" Jacob was completely conquered.
"You just told me not to go over there? Why?" Joshua squatted down again, trying to look Wendy in the eye.
"The two servants you and Amy robbed here have woken up. One of them ran out to give the news, and the other stayed behind to wait for the opportunity."
Wendy pointed to the stairs going down, which was the stairwell they were going to.
"Please hide. I will lead them away and wait for a good opportunity. You can take advantage of this opportunity to leave here quickly."
Wendy said a lot and was about to take action.
This made Ivy even more curious. They didn't know each other, and there were many soldiers lying in ambush in the castle to capture them.
To Wendy, Ivy and the others were just a group of criminals who suddenly broke into her house.
If a normal person sees a fly breaking into the house, he or she will pick up a fly swatter without hesitation.
But Wendy, why would she help?
"What a lovely and kind girl!"
Joshua had no doubt at all, he smiled and said.
Is it really that simple? A kind, kind-hearted child? Ivy couldn't help but continue to frown.
"Please...after you get out, find a way to find the London police to save me."
Wendy suddenly raised her head and spoke to the bewildered crowd.
"My mother is terrible. She is not as kind and gentle as the outside world thinks of her. I saw things I shouldn't have seen, and my mother also found out about me. I don't want to drink that bowl of bitter medicine anymore. Every time I finish drinking it, I will..."
Wendy suddenly shed a string of tears, which made her look even more adorable.
"Oh! My dear little girl!" Joshua quickly squatted down and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"I always sleep for a very long time, sir. I have raised rabbits, cats, dogs, turtles, and goldfish before, but none of them lasted more than three months."
"When I woke up at night, I would always see my mother walking around the castle with a bloody knife in her hand."
"I'm so scared. I know how Xiao Ben died. It was his mother who wanted to blame me for his death. I'm so scared. I'm afraid I won't live past March..."
Mrs. Bruce?
Children speak without restraint, and everyone was frightened and broke into cold sweats.
But the next second, there was a sudden rustling sound in the corridor.
At this moment, everyone's cold sweat immediately turned into hot sweat, and their faces turned pale in panic.
"Here! Hide in that storage room!"
Wendy quickly pointed to the room at the end, and Ivy rushed over first. After the last Joshua came in, Ivy quickly closed the door.
The moment the door was locked, the sound of Wendy and the soldier talking could be heard outside the door.
"Miss, why are you here?"
"I'm hungry and want to come to the kitchen to eat something."
"I'll ask the kitchen to prepare some cakes for you. It's too dangerous here, and your health is not good. Please go back as soon as possible..."
"I know, but there seems to be a sound under the stairs..."
"Who's there! Boom boom boom... Come out! Hurry up!"
"Knock, knock, knock... I'm the lady's servant! What are you doing?!"
"You are a servant? Then where is the servant's uniform you are wearing? How do you prove that you are a servant in our castle!"
“Just now here…”
"Shut up! You can fool others but not me! You are obviously one of those criminals, waiting to tip them off!"
"I'm not……"
"Take him away and put him in jail! Since he said he was his wife's servant, then wait for his wife to decide his fate personally!"
"I've already told you that I'm not the one! Why don't you go catch the real criminals but come after me? You can only see through a slit, right? Let me go! Don't think that you can arrest anyone just because you are the master's soldier..."
"Miss, you are frightened, go back quickly."
"The criminals? Are they Marquis Sebastian and his servants?"
"That's pretty much it."
"I just saw them running to my father's study. Look, I even found the Marquis's seal..."
"Damn it! When did you get it?"
The Marquis quickly searched his pockets, and then everyone saw his surprised expression.
The noise outside gradually died down. It should be Wendy who led the soldiers away from here.
Ivy listened carefully to the sounds outside the door. After a while, she opened the door a crack and looked out carefully.
After making sure that no one was there, she slowly opened the door of the storage room.
"Okay, let's go...what are you doing..."
The light from the corridor shone into the small and cramped storage room as the wooden door opened, and Ivy could see clearly what was stored inside.
Pumpkins, black robes, white masks, daggers, candles, staffs, spell books...the room was filled with them, leaving no space.
"This is a demonic pattern..."
Jacob suddenly lifted up a corner of his black robe and showed it to everyone.
There is a strange circle, and inside the circle there is an equilateral triangle, inside the triangle there is an obtuse triangle, and inside the last triangle there is a completely black triangle.
The triangles are stacked up like eyes stacked together, silently watching everyone who looks at them.
Ivy felt her neck getting hot and sore. That was where the devil's contract Dorian had carved was. It had now turned into a hexagram emitting a gleaming green light.
"The black robe covers the body, the mask covers the face, the body and feet are bare..." Joshua said in a low voice as he looked at the strange storage room.
"Gathering for anger, drinking blood for sacrifice, taking Satan as the master, betraying God..."
"It looks scary and sounds scary, what is this?" asked the Marquis in confusion.
"It's the Black Mass..." Holmes replied slowly.
