Chapter 744

"Wilson and Luke didn't die in the manor. You didn't kill them!" Seeing Susan close to collapse, Qin Lun had to bear to comfort, "why do you have to blame yourself?"

"No, you don't understand, Chris, you don't know..." Susan shook her head hard and said sadly, "no wonder I was so familiar with this manor when I saw it for the first time since I was captured by that strange man. Because when I was a child, I saw more than one painting in my grandfather's room with the oil painting of this Manor! "

"It really has something to do with her, so it can explain why the murderer dressed as an English gentleman didn't kill her on the spot." Qin Lun was a little surprised, but he also knew that he had a little deviation from his original idea that the murderer wanted to hold a cult ceremony.

"You also said that it was just a picture left by your grandfather, and we don't know what it's used for. Besides, Wilson and Luke died in the hands of another monster. I don't think they have anything to do with this manor. "

Qin Lun's comfort gradually came into play. Susan was no longer so miserable, but still very depressed. She was almost half carried out of the basement by him. Qin Lun didn't dare to stay here. In case of being blocked by the dead servants, it would be really over.

"Susan, cheer up. Is there anything noteworthy in the picture your grandfather left behind?" Qin Lun held the woman who was not in love with her to the wall and patted her on the cheek. "Listen, don't think about the people who have passed away. Think about Karin and Dana who entered the manor to find you. They need your strength now."

"Karin and Dana have also been caught?" Two familiar names finally let the woman wake up like a dream and stand up nervously supporting the wall.

"No, they just can't leave you alone. Now they come in with some Acadian search and rescue personnel..." "Of course, there are some people here who want to cover up this evil manor. I guess they are all evil believers!" Qin Lun lied

In order to cover up the possible conflict with reincarnation, Qin Lun made a little preparation without hesitation. Then if he had a fight with the living, Susan would automatically make up the brains of those people to be heretics.

"Something's going to happen to Karin and Dana. Let's do something!" Susan reached out and stroked her scattered blonde hair, trying to get rid of her depression.

"Yes, we must do something! Susan, try to think about it. About that painting, and your grandfather, anything that has to do with this ghost place? " Qin Lun uses hypnotic tone to guide the girl's thinking, trying to get more clues from her head.

“…… I, I can't remember anything! " Susan stamped her feet with chagrin and cried, "I'm useless!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, honey, come to me!" Qin Lun put out his arms, put Susan in his arms, and stroked her hair. "Close your eyes, don't think about anything, let's forget this place, forget this manor. You're safe now. I won't let you go wrong. There's no danger... "

Qin Lun had patience at this time, and the psychological knowledge he had learned played a role. There are only two ways for people like Susan who have just suffered serious injuries, especially women, to recall in their minds.

One is to use more violence to break down their psychological defense lines. At that time, their brains will turn faster than supercomputers under the stimulation of survival instinct.

The second is to let them relax, get rid of the victim's psychology, realize that it is safe now, and let their brain recover calm.

It sounds ridiculous, isn't it? In fact, most people have the psychology of victims, and the common people without special training are more serious.

For example, if someone's home is stolen, he knows that the probability of being stolen again in a short time is smaller than that of an air crash, but at night he will not feel like checking the door lock, or even sleeping only under the care of the closest person. This is the typical victim psychology!

Susan, a female college student who has not yet entered the society, has a weaker will in this regard. Under normal circumstances, she is unlikely to provide any help to Qin Lun at present, especially they are not in a safe environment.

Therefore, Qin Lun used some hypnotic means at this time, using Susan's original trust, so that her consciousness temporarily ignored the surrounding environment and potential danger.

The hypnotized Susan's pupils were a little slack, and her mouth was mumbling a lot of things, most of which were scattered and illogical. But Qin Lun knew that she was indeed hypnotized, and now she was in a strange "sleep".

In this state, people think quickly and disorderly. Think East and West, and only under the guidance can they say what the questioner wants to know.

Unfortunately, Qin Lun knew nothing about her childhood or her family situation, so it was unlikely to guide her like a professional psychologist.

However, it is not necessary. Qin Lun can infer a lot from her words.

Susan did not know much about the painting, even though Qin Lun broke into her deepest memory in complete disregard of her safety, she did not find too many clues.

This disappointed Qin Lun, but it was expected that Wilson manor had been built hundreds of years ago. Even if something terrible happened to the manor, it was too long.He estimated that even Susan's grandfather didn't know what kind of history was recorded in that ancestral painting.

The only thing he can be sure of right now is that the painting was really the work of Susan's ancestors, not something that one of them got from a gallery or an auction house.

"What happened to me just now?" Susan was soon "woken up" by Qin Lun and asked in some confusion.

"Nothing. You're too tired. You just passed out!" Qin Lun smiled and comforted her. "Let's go upstairs. We'd better find Karin and Dana."

"Well!" Susan fell into a hypnotic state for a while, but her spirit was much better. Feeling more conscious, the woman asked casually, "Chris, you're not a model agent, are you?"

"I'm sorry I lied to you. I'm not a model agent. I'm a private detective. A man named Donald asked me to investigate some time ago. One of his friends disappeared in Arcadia! " Qin Lun glances at the girl and opens her mouth to make up another lie.

Karin and Dana can be jailed for her companion, but a model agent will not risk her life for Susan. Qin Lun's original identity is not easy to use.

As for why it was put on the fat Donald, that's because Donald has a real person and is likely to meet him here. If at any time Susan did meet Dana, the team's current lie would work.

He fully believes that even if fat people hate him, they can't talk about him or frame him. Because Allen and others have a good impression on him, stanson and Fanny say that he and Donald saved together, and the fat man's identity is not clean, which is more wrong.

Seeing that Susan had the strength to walk, Qin Lun let go of her and walked ahead.

Wilson manor is an old building of the Renaissance, which was popular in Europe in the 15th-19th century, including Baroque and classical architecture. When the western colonists went to America, they also brought these architectural styles to the new world.

These architectural theories are based on the Renaissance trend of thought, excluding the Gothic architectural style symbolizing the supremacy of theocracy in modeling, and advocating the Renaissance of ancient Roman architectural forms.

Architects hope to reshape the harmonious order of the ideal classical society with the help of the proportion theory of classical architecture. So generally speaking, the architecture of the Renaissance pays attention to symmetry and proportion, with rigorous facade and plane composition as well as the column system inherited from the classical architecture.

Wilson manor is the product of this idea, so it covers a large area and has a long corridor with column structure on both sides of the hall. All kinds of reception rooms and study rooms of the host's house are distributed in these galleries. The arched leaf gate looks like a beautiful picture on the inside of the gallery.

In the daytime, as a temporary worker, Qin Lun could not enter these places to check.

Now, at last, he has a chance.

"Chris, why don't we go upstairs and have a look?" Susan asked, lowering her voice as she nervously looked around with her ankles and neck chains in her hands.

"Upstairs are basically guest rooms, the study and reception hall of the manor owner, and the tea Hall of the hostess are basically on the first floor." Qin Lun explained in a low voice.

"So what?" Asked Susan, puzzled.

Qin Lun closed a small hall that had just been inspected and couldn't help but clapping his forehead. He forgot that the girl behind him was just a student still in school, not a hill type of old-fashioned.

Susan didn't understand the meaning of his words at all. He had to speak more clearly if he wanted to explain.

"As you already know, there is a mysterious power in this manor. The dirty things here can't be solved by fighting. We must dig out the deep secret and find out its weakness, otherwise we can't leave here. "

Thinking about the girl's connection with the manor, Qin Lun felt better to let her participate. "So, if you want to keep a little privacy in front of your parents, will you hide your diary under the pillow or put it in the locked cabinet?"

"Of course Chris, do you mean that if the owner of the manor has a secret, it's easier to find clues in the study and reception hall than in the bedroom? " With a hint, Susan can understand.

"Yes, you have to keep your diary in a locked drawer. And the master of Wilson manor is not a little girl like you. Does he want to have a special basement? Does he want to build a hidden secret chamber in the study or reception hall? "

Qin Lun said with a wry smile, "as for the bedroom, it's the one with the lowest probability, because sometimes the people who sleep beside you are more terrible than the outsiders."
