Veronica's dress was a bit too formal, with white gloves and a long skirt, just like her usual attire. She didn't even take off the veiled hat. She didn't reveal anything except her face and neck. Just like her

At this moment, I am not resting at home, but attending a grand banquet.

But other than that, there was no object in the house that could reveal her evil nature. It was simply the boudoir of a normal aristocratic lady. Of course, the number of books was higher than the average reading level for her peers.

Kelly felt a little regretful, who would hide their secrets in their usual place of residence, but after just talking with the old man, she came to Veronica's door preemptively.

But think about it carefully, even if she hadn't come here, would she have been able to discover anything? She had already tried it when she was on the fourth floor, and the door was locked tightly, and she just turned around with the mentality of trying.

The handle, I didn't expect that this most important place is really not locked.

Is it really because of her lack of vigilance due to her confidence in herself? Is she really so lucky? Or is the door unlocked for some reason that she cannot understand at the moment?

Kelly's best choice now is to close the door and leave, and then pray that she can leave here safe and sound. The old woman will not take her matter to heart, and then stay away from this place with doubts.

Or seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to do something, but what can she do? Could it be that she wants to kidnap Prince Gawain's little daughter?

Kelly couldn't help but feel a little funny when she thought of this, because she didn't expect that one day she would have the opportunity to do such an unreachable thing. She was obviously just an ordinary college student, but she was so close to such a moment that could shock the whole country.

.

Of course, it is impossible for Kelly to really kidnap Veronica. That would only lead to death. She has decided to leave here. Anyway, today's infiltration has brought her a lot of help. As long as she is careful when leaving, she may not be able to escape.

Then dive back in.

But before closing the door, she noticed something strange.

During this period of time, Veronica did not move at all except when turning the pages of the book. Could it be that aristocratic etiquette has become so strict?

There was a smell that was strangely familiar to Kelly, floating tentatively on the tip of her nose.

Kelly swallowed.

Why does the room smell like this?

She pushed the door extremely slowly. Fortunately, the door was made of wood and made no sound under her delicate control.

She walked towards Veronica's back in the most silent manner, because she realized that her initial judgment was wrong, and there was indeed something in this room that could reveal Veronica's evil nature.

As long as she gets the evidence, maybe she can let everyone know about Veronica's evil nature. Even if not, she can warn Hevin and let him know what she has discovered here.

Kelly knew that she must not reveal her identity, so she had to subdue Veronica and make her faint, and then carefully search the room for the secret evidence she found.

Kelly is now more like a deadly feline creature than the lynx she just met. Every step she takes on the ground exactly coincides with Veronica's movements of flipping through the pages of the book, completely covering up her already imperceptible appearance.

Footsteps.

She didn't even dare to use behind-the-scenes vision because she was afraid that if she saw something shocking, she would be frightened and her traces would be exposed.

As she continued to move forward, the strange smell became stronger and stronger.

Fortunately, Veronica had not received any special training, and was probably so absorbed in reading that she did not realize that there was an uninvited guest standing in her room at this time.

Kelly finally reached enough distance to take action.

Veronica also seemed to hear the noise. She stopped flipping through the book and wanted to turn her head and look behind her.

too slow.

Kelly stretched out her hands and directly controlled Veronica's neck and mouth, making it impossible for her to make any sound or even struggle.

The next thing is just...

Kelly let go of her hand, pushed Veronica to the ground and ran away.

Although she didn't even see Veronica's face, and she didn't have time to subdue Veronica, Kelly didn't suddenly get frightened and run away.

On the contrary, she had found the evidence she was looking for, that extremely familiar touch and smell. She had been surrounded by that strange smell for a whole month.

What she is looking for is a corpse.

And she did find it.

The smell of death.

Kelly didn't know if Veronica had time to react or see her appearance clearly, but she could only run away now, not entirely out of fear, because she knew very well that she couldn't make a corpse unconscious.

King Arthur protects her from being recognized by Veronica.

After Kelly ran to an area where the light could not illuminate, she still couldn't resist the impulse in her heart. She covered her face with her clothes and body and turned her head to take a look.

In this quiet darkness, Kelly saw a creature, but she was not sure whether it was a human being, and she did not even dare to call it a human corpse.

Veronica was still sitting on the ground, covering her forehead with her hands, but her profile, which was not looking at her, made Kelly feel the cold wave again.

Rot and death thrive on it, and decay and disease slowly spread.

The strange appearance made Kelly almost lose her mind. She rushed down the stairs quickly, no longer thinking about whether she would attract the patrolling guards.

Whether the mystery existed has always been a question that concerned her very much, but she never wanted to know the answer in this way.

Veronica is undead.

A dead person? Not that Kelly had any prejudice against the dead. She had lived with endless corpses for a long time, but this kind of moving dead was another matter entirely.

Whether it is in ancient legends or people's common sense, the undead are definitely not a kind and gentle species.

All legends spread for a reason. To apply the biological formula, the legends that preached that the undead are not scary have "died", while the stories that preached that the undead are scary have "lived".

Those who believe the former may die together with the legend.

Of course, this analogy is not accurate, but Kelly firmly believes that the mysterious deceased hiding in this castle and having a large number of fanatical admirers is definitely an evil creature.

But how can she convince others of this fact?

After today, there is no possibility for Kelly to come back here again.

Is Vidonika a dead person? Let’s not consider whether those fanatics will tear Kelly apart or whether they may believe it.

Even if everyone believed it, as long as Vidonica walked around the campus as usual, this disgusting "rumor" would be disproven.

She was now beginning to wonder if what she just saw was the scene behind the scenes, or if she was just too nervous.

Impossible, she was extremely convinced, it was just a corpse, and the world she was in just now was not the world behind the scenes.

A huge feeling of despair enveloped Kelly.
