Chapter 34 Only blood can reveal the truth
"Hey Ferguson, it's just dinner time. Do you have time to have a drink together?"
The old black man seemed a little surprised, but he nodded, "If you really want to accompany me as an old man, of course, come to my office."
The so-called company running is actually a utility room with a table and two chairs.
Qin Yu poured a glass of wine for each of them, and while eating sandwiches, he started chatting in groups.
"This wine is good, and this cigar is also very authentic." The old man obviously enjoyed this unexpected gift.
"Haha, just like you."
"Have your lecture today been smooth?" the old man asked.
"Fortunately, it sounds interesting. I also received a small gift in class, which was given by a girl."
"Haha, girls are very proactive nowadays, but you should be careful. The school prohibits teachers from falling in love with students. If someone discovers, they may be opened."
"I think she shouldn't be interested in me, because the things she gave me were very strange." Qin Yu said, but took out the key and showed it to the old man.
The old black man glanced at the bronze key and his eyes suddenly became serious, "I seem to have seen this pattern somewhere."
Qin Yuxin said of course you have seen it, "Oh, can you tell me?"
The old man showed a look of memories on his face, and he told a story slowly, as if he was telling a story. "That was twenty years ago, there was a murder case in the school, a very evil murder case. In a library near the woods, people found a corpse, which was the corpse of a girl. She was naked and lying in the hall of the library. Her blood was flowing everywhere, and a strange pattern was formed, which seemed to be some kind of religious symbol. I was responsible for cleaning at that time, so my memory was very deep. That symbol was the symbol on this key.
What’s strange is that the girl’s expression is very peaceful, as if she was asleep, but since then, strange things have often happened in that library and it has been abandoned later.”
Qin Yu deliberately showed a shocked expression, "Oh my God, this kind of thing actually happened."
"Yes, I'm also surprised, but I guess it should be related to a legend in that library."
"What legend?"
"That library was built a long time ago. Legend has it that it was originally built by an archaeologist after an archaeological journey around the world. It is said that he found a mysterious ancient book on a global journey, which contained terrible power. The person who built the library secretly hid the book. As long as he found this mysterious ancient book, he could master the powerful power inside."
"Of course, this is just nonsense, but compared to some stupid fools who believed the rumor and conducted some evil rituals to try to find the whereabouts of the book, they certainly found nothing."
Qin Yuxin said, "It's true, this book should really exist."
"What's that girl's name?"
"Eve."
"Eve? The girl who gave me the keys before was also called Eve. It would be the same person, right?" He deliberately showed a worry-hush expression, "No, I have to figure it out. Where can I find information about this murder?"
"You can search in the old archives. It's in the basement where there are many unarchived student information files, most of which are the school boards do not want to appear in the school records. If you need it, I can help you open the archives. I am responsible for cleaning the building, so there is the key to the archives. But young people, listen to my advice and don't investigate this matter in depth. Some things are best not to know."
Qin Yu shook his head: "No, as a professor, understanding the truth of the matter is something I have to do, not to mention that there is a murder case involved. Please lend me the key to the basement."
The old black man shrugged, "Okay, but don't blame me for not reminding you that I have been here for so long and have seen all kinds of weird things. Sometimes, it's better not to contact the truth of some things easily."
Qin Yu was too lazy to pay attention to him, so he picked up the key and nodded, "Thank you, mate."
He turned around and walked towards the archives.
Qin Yu was looking for the dusty old file Ankuli with a flashlight.
There are not many archives in the archives, most of which have been electronically archived, and only a few still exist here.
Found! A file cabinet marked in 1998 appeared in front of Qin Yu.
Qin Yu directly chose the file box starting with e.
There were dozens of documents in it, and Qin Yu quickly found the one he was looking for. Eve Becky.
A girl with short flax hair appeared in front of her, and it was indeed the mysterious girl she had seen before.
The whole story of the girl's death is also introduced in the archives.
Eve Becky is a member of a mysterious society, and the founder of the society is a man named Jansen Partridge.
Partridge was also Eve Becky's boyfriend. Partridge was considered the first suspect after the death incident, but in the end he was not sent to prison due to insufficient evidence. However, this guy was expelled from the school.
Although I don’t know what this file represents, Qin Yu knew that this file would definitely come in handy.
Qin Yu put the documents in his arms, turned around and walked out of the archives, looked at the time, and there was less than half an hour left before the agreed time. Qin Yu no longer delayed and walked towards the library.
The library is located next to the woods, a very remote area. The building looks very old and has a sense of age.
Qin Yu walked to the front of the gate and slowly inserted the bronze key towards the keychain of the gate, which was completely unmatched.
It seems that it is not used to open this door.
He directly broke the glass of the library door, then reached in and opened the door from inside, pushed the door open and walked in.
A stale breath suddenly came to my face, and I shone the library hall with a flashlight. There was nothing, only an empty bookshelves and a single book.
Qin Yu was not in a hurry and searched carefully. Soon a relief located in the middle of the hall attracted his attention.
The relief is the library. Next to the library is a scholar dressed in middle age. Maybe he is the founder of the library. He held a book in both hands and handed it towards the direction of the library, making a letter of delivery.
There are some texts to commemorate the founder of the library, Mr. Will.
There is also a line of inscriptions engraved on the base of the relief [only blood can reveal the truth]. Next to the inscription is the strange pattern of the polygon.
Perhaps this is why the blood sacrifice ceremony occurred at the beginning. Those who were looking for mysterious ancient books wanted to find the ancient books through blood sacrifice.
However, Qin Yu knew that most of the people were wrong. He glanced at the relief, and suddenly his eyes moved. The location of the keychain on the door of the library in the relief looked quite strange. Not only was the proportions large, but it seemed to be faintly concave.
He took out the key and inserted it into the keyhole of the door on the relief, and this time he easily inserted it.
Click, a strange vibration sound came from behind the relief. With a rumbling sound, the relief slowly rose up. However, what appeared in front of me was not the lobby of the library, but a passage leading to the underground.
It turns out that this library also has a basement.
