Mystery: Lucky One

Chapter 156 Chapter 30 Seeing and Being Seen
Alice looked at Will in the mirror and asked calmly: "Don't I look like him?"

Will still replied in that mocking tone: "Yeah, it's just like that."

"boom!"

As soon as Will Auceptin finished speaking, the full-length mirror turned into countless fragments with a loud noise without any warning, and sputtered away.

The large and small fragments fell around the room with the force of the explosion, but they seemed to be deliberately manipulated to avoid Alice, who was sitting in front of the mirror.

No, there is one piece that is not avoided.

There was a slightly larger piece of debris that hit the "wealth accessory" on Alice's chest before the force was gone, causing Alice's body to lean back slightly due to the force.

Alice reached out to pick up the fragment, threw it on the ground without looking at it, and held the "wealth accessory" inexplicably, and when she spoke again, her tone was no longer as calm as before:
"I do not understand.

"Would it do you any good to provoke me?"

There was no other sound in the bedroom except her and Velma's breathing. No one answered Alice's question, maybe because they couldn't, or maybe they didn't want to.

Allen looked around blankly at the normal room, and had to start cleaning up the debris on the floor.

She pondered for a moment, put the "wealth accessory" on the table, hesitantly approached, and cautiously said hello: "Hi?"

But Alice noticed Allen who was hesitant to speak. She reached out and closed the door gently, and asked as if she remembered something: "Well... the full-length mirror in that room is broken. Do I need to pay for it?"

With a confused look on her face, she took off her "wealth accessory" and looked at it against the light.

Alice, who received no answer, took one last look at Velma, who knew nothing, and left the bedroom.

So Alice nodded and left Allen's house, leaving Allen in the house who always felt something was wrong.

……

So, how was their chat? How did the mirror break?

After Alice thought seriously for a moment, she nodded and said to herself: "That's right, you don't have a mouth, so you shouldn't be able to speak."

...Wait, so has the matter been resolved?

There was no movement, "Fortune Accessories" stayed in place quietly without any reaction.

"Wealth Accessories" remained unresponsive.

"..." Allen's thoughts were interrupted. He almost subconsciously followed Alice's words and thought, "No, it's not necessary. It shouldn't be necessary."

The light hit the "Fortune Accessories", and the already exquisite appearance reflected an even more gorgeous light. Alice stared at it for a long time, but could not see anything wrong.

Alice returned home.

After Alice stared at it for a while, as if to vent her anger, she opened the drawer, threw the "getting rich accessories" into the drawer, and then closed the drawer hard.

Allen looked blankly at the closed door, hesitated, opened the bedroom door, and saw the floor covered with mirror fragments.

There’s still no movement on the “wealth accessories”.

Alice stretched out her hand, pushed down the standing "wealth accessory" with a "click", and then asked curiously: "Then can you move?"

Outside the door, the anxious Allen saw Alice coming out. His eyes lit up. He seemed to want to say something, but he was inexplicably afraid to talk to the current Alice.

"Wealth Accessories" still didn't give any reaction, as quiet as a real dead thing.

……

There was something special about this night. This is a fast, spacious, slightly turbid river.

There is a magnificent bridge over the river, and there are docks one after another on both sides, busy with goods and many workers.

There are rows of houses on the northeastern bank of the river. Most of them have the characteristics of the current architecture of the Kingdom of Loen, with polygonal hip roofs, oriel windows, and no verandahs facing the street. In addition, there are many Gothic buildings.

People come and go on the streets here, carriages come one after another, and strange machinery can be seen from time to time.

The further east you go, the more chimneys and thicker smoke you get. The further west you go, the higher the terrain becomes. Houses that are grey-blue, off-white or light yellow are winding upwards, surrounded by a gorgeous palace, surrounded by a tall The towering Gothic bell tower.

Here is... Backlund!
In the middle of the sky, the high-hanging sun casts dazzling sunlight, revealing the time of noon.

Suddenly, thick and dense clouds surged up, turning the sun pale and dim.

The white mist rose at some point, and the stacked crowds and buildings became blurred.

The fog gradually turned from white to light yellow, and then to an unknown iron-black color. The crowds and buildings in the distance completely disappeared, and the figures within a few steps became blurred.

The black fog drew closer, and through the increasingly dense black, a figure shrouded in black fog appeared.

In the center of the mist, a saintly woman wearing a long white dress stretched out her hand to pull down her veil, covering her face that was not yet completely clear.

Then, the thick, ominous black mist emerged again, covering everything.

When the fog dissipated, what appeared again were people in ragged clothes, with sallow faces and thin muscles.

There are people walking on the streets praying hard for food.

Someone is huddled in a corner, spending the last days of his life quietly.

Someone was walking home excitedly with a newly bought sausage.

Someone was washing clothes at the door of the house and shouting to the children.

There are also immature but sensible children who memorize words while helping their mothers wash clothes.

One after another, they are ordinary people trying to survive.

But at this moment, their behavior was surprisingly consistent - they all covered their mouths, coughed violently, and then spit out a mouthful of yellow, blood-streaked phlegm.

Then, silently, they fell one after another into the mist of light yellow and iron black.

Thick fog once again obscured all the scenes.

When the fog cleared again, a very strange sight appeared.

This is a simple and gentle priest. He wears a simple white robe, has a light golden beard that covers the lower half of his face, and has a cross pendant hanging on his chest.

He is... where is he?

Subconsciously, all this was ignored, and this simple and unremarkable priest became the only focus of the entire sight.

Suddenly, the ordinary priest opened his eyes.

He had eyes as clear as a baby. He raised a gentle smile, raised his head, passed through the air, passed through the wall, and looked in this direction.

Alice was caught off guard and looked into those eyes, her reflection reflected in those clear eyes.

He saw me!
When this idea broke into Alice's mind, Alice's spirituality suddenly screamed crazily.
