Weird story about rules: I rely on magic to kill people

Chapter 19 Windsor Castle (18)

Sidney was in charge of the part to the left of the darkroom entrance.

He also fished in the water for a long time, and finally only fished out a few empty medicine bottles.Before leaving, he only took out a medicine bottle and hid it in the butt pocket of his pants.

Sidney stood in the middle of the circle, took out the medicine bottle from his trouser pocket and placed it on his open palm: "I don't know if what I found is useful. After fishing for a long time, I only found this medicine bottle. .”

Xu Zhinian moved forward and looked at the medicine bottle carefully.

The words on the medicine bottle are blurred, and the bottle is full of scratches, as if it has been tortured by the vicissitudes of time.There was only one thing she could be sure of: all the pills in the bottle were gone. In the dark room, the former countess must have relied on that bottle of pills.

In order to look at the medicine bottle, Balu had to press his face against it, but he couldn't read the words clearly.

He pouted: "Here, I don't know what's going on with this medicine bottle?"

"Indeed," Eliade also looked at it for a long time without seeing anything, and joked: "It can't even make my hand less swollen."

Hearing him say "swollen hand," Xu Zhinian and the others turned their attention to his hand, and it turned out that it was already swollen.

"I'm so sorry. I should have explained earlier that there was a restriction on the door lock." Xu Zhinian said, somewhat apologetically.

Eliade waved his hand quickly: "No, it's just my impatience. Leave my hand alone and let's continue with the clues!"

"Let's apply some medicine later."

Xu Zhinian finished speaking to Eliade, changed his tone, and locked his eyes on the medicine bottle in Sidney's palm: "The writing on the medicine bottle is gone. I don't know what kind of medicine it is. But one thing is that there are no pills in it." The original countess must have relied on it."

"Indeed. If you don't rely on it, the pills inside won't be gone." Sidney carefully recalled the situation just now, and added: "That's right, there are no pills in those pill bottles!"

Everyone nodded, this was another clue.

Next it was Eliade's turn with swollen hands, but he didn't bring anything out.

He said: "I was looking for clues on the right side of the darkroom. I didn't find anything substantial, but on the wall on the right side, I saw traces similar to fingernail scratches."

"It's not just one or two, it's densely packed, like there are hundreds or thousands of them."

"This doesn't sound like a useful clue."

"It's all because the countess arrived, otherwise Sister Xu would have listened to the original lady talk more."

"That's right, now the clue is broken again."

Baru and Sidney also muttered that this was not a useful clue, just like the barrage.

However, Xu Zhinian didn't think that way.She guessed what those nail marks were while she was halfway listening to Eliade's words.

In the airtight dark room, there was only a small window that let in light.In a life of darkness, I can only count the days by picking at the wall with my fingernails.

Finally, it was Xu Zhinian's turn to introduce the clues he had found.

She was a little ashamed because the bells tied to the countess' feet rang before the original countess could say anything to her.

She told the three people what Mrs. Yuan said in her memory. After listening, the three nodded lightly, and no one said anything.

……

After the clue exchange was completed, Xu Zhinian began to work on new clues.

She suggested to everyone: "Let's go find the count next. The current countess may be dangerous, but the count is trustworthy."

Ba Lu only believed in what Xu Zhinian said, and he believed 100% in what Xu Zhinian said.

Sidney and Eliade had also seen Xu Zhinian's ability, especially with Balu's strong support, so they agreed.

Eliade asked: "Then when are we going? Now?"

Xu Zhinian waved his hand and replied very calmly: "Don't worry, let's get rid of these two guys before we go."

As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her head and looked at the two strange guards who were hung up, with a wicked smile on her lips.

Originally, he should have used magic, but Xu Zhinian was now so weak that he had no extra energy to use magic.

To blame, it was the stuffed bear that suddenly broke away from the beam.

Therefore, she planned to use the most primitive method to find clues from the two guards. "Sister Xu is so elegant! Stick it, stick it hard!"

"Stop posting, what do you think Sister Xu is doing?"

"Damn it, how can this be possible?!"

The barrage in the live broadcast room went crazy. The audience looked at Xu Zhinian's behavior and didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

In a situation where I can't laugh or cry.

Xu Zhinian adopted the most primitive method——

Move his hands up and down to scratch the itch.

The two guards were tickled by Xu Zhinian's "Tickle Technique" until they giggled, especially when they were hung upside down. It was a life worse than death.

However, she didn't just scratch the itch. While scratching, she ran her hands up and down to find the items on the two guards.

The two people above couldn't stop laughing, and Xu Zhinian took out a lot of things from them.

There were two people's identification tags, two keys, a shiny silver shield and a letter with a fire seal.

Xu Zhinian turned his head slightly, and Balu behind him immediately received the signal and stepped forward to put these things away.

When Balu finished packing everything, Xu Zhinian didn't intend to stop, and she tickled even more fiercely.

Even if the two guards were transformed into monsters, they could not withstand such high-intensity torture.The two of them gradually lost their green-faced and fanged appearance and returned to their normal appearance.

"Holy shit! Is this the legendary reverse weirdness?"

"I thought that only NPCs with special tasks like housekeepers could control their own strangeness and counter-naturalization."

"This is not controlled by the two guards...this is controlled by Sister Xu!"

Xu Zhinian just let go of her hand, and her goal was achieved.

How could she ask questions when she kept turning weird and grinning?
It has to be tortured to a state of disgrace, and the strange NPC has to surrender and recover, and only then can it be easy to ask questions.

She wasn't surprised, but the eyes of the three Balu people behind her widened.

*
They had only heard of "counter-uncertainization" in legends, and even though they had participated in many copies of Kaitan Paradise, no one had actually seen it.

Today is an eye opener.

The first thing the two guards did when they returned to their normal appearance was to beg for mercy.

The one on the left spoke first: "Miss Long Guo, please forgive us! Hanging upside down like this... and the tickling just now, it is really worse than death..."

The one on the right then said: "Yes, let us down! It's too uncomfortable..."

……

Xu Zhinian seemed to really think about it. He looked up and down for a long time before speaking: "Then you must answer the questions I asked truthfully."

The two guards didn't dare to resist at all and agreed immediately.

Xu Zhinian asked: "How did you choose the strange NPC?"

This question stumped the two guards, and they hesitated: "This... we don't know this either."

Xu Zhinian nodded silently. She had known that the two of them would not be able to answer.

The question she just asked was an introduction, and the next question was what she wanted to ask: "Then, who gave the letter on your body to whom?"

"Can you two finally answer this question?"

……

The two guards looked at each other and were silent for a long time: "It was written by the Countess to her friend. We are only responsible for delivering it to the post office in the town, and we really don't know anything else."
