Chapter 512

Berkshire, in the early morning.

Over this prosperous city famous for various "castles" and "manors", the sun has not yet appeared. It is the last dark hour. A pair of gray eyes appear without warning. Even Tang Qi's figure comes out of the void.

Behind him, a "strange thing" fell off, transparent and illusory. The tentacles with cold and death breath, together with the strange gray eyes, narrowed into a small "death Octopus", swam and swallowed back by greedy food.

"It's not very windy and beautiful, but it's a very practical wonder."

Tang Qi looked at his extortion with satisfaction. When he nodded, his body appeared in the city below.

Here, it is very far away from Lanlu City, or the whole mihuang state, but it is a little close to Katai City, the second metropolis of the Federation.

According to the information provided by Ralph's daughter Leia, because Leia is very close to her grandmother, Ralph's mother, and almost knows most of Ralph's life.

"As a genius, Ralph was successfully admitted to Cartier University. After graduation, he should have a great future and stay in a big city to work. But before that, Ralph decided to take a graduation trip, starting in Cartier city and ending in Lanlu city... After meeting his mother, he would look for a job."

"But this trip changed his life, and the initial turning point was Berkshire."

Tang Qi carried his suitcase and dressed up as a "wandering pharmacist" with the best comfort. Following the information, Tang Qi walked through the streets with strong style of the old calendar era and entered a more remote old street.

"Huh?"

As soon as he stepped into it, Tang Qi was surprised.

Subconsciously looked at the sky again. I can't be wrong. It's just five or six in the morning.

The old street, which should have been deserted and silent, was very busy at this time.

At least dozens of young men with different styles gathered in line in front of a building. Although they were all communicating with each other, their hostile eyes could not be deceived.

What happened? Tang Qi looked straight at the door number. The hard metal door number was corroded and rusted with the passage of time, but still vaguely visible numbers and ancient federal fonts.

"42 Severo street, fogsburg office."

Tang Qi silently recited the house number, matched the information in his mind, and then walked to the team.

Because of his excellent appearance and natural affinity, he immediately caused a riot in the team composed of young people of various styles. Dozens of "hostile" eyes were projected, and there was a murmur of discontent.

"There's another predator. It's over."

"He's a wandering pharmacist. He looks so good."

"He is almost as handsome as me, but my temperament is not as good as him. What should I do?"

"He's an outsider. We have to work together to exclude him. We'd better let him leave."

"Or try to buy money. This guy must be very poor."

The keen sense of hearing brought these voices into his ears. Tang Qi lifted a radian around the corners of his mouth and went straight to the end of the team. There stood a young man with black hair, thin and soft, and painted with black shadow, with strong Gothic style.

Tangqi stood in front of him and asked kindly, "excuse me? What happened here?"

The rest of the people who paid attention to his dynamics thought that the feminine youth would refuse. Who knew that he was just stunned for a moment, he immediately said quickly: "old lady Charlotte of fog castle is recruiting a caregiver, who is required to be young, handsome and strong."

The feminine young man said, "old lady Charlotte said that those who accompany her to the end of her life can get her heritage... Although I don't know why the nurses recruited many times in front can't be recognized by old lady Charlotte, we decided to take a chance."

When Tang Qi heard the latter sentence, he immediately showed understanding.

As long as you accompany and take care of a dying old lady, you can get a large inheritance, which many young people without serious work will not refuse.

In his mind, the information about "fog Castle" and the "old lady Charlotte" flashed out one after another, and his look gradually became strange.

At this time, the warm sun finally began to rise, dispersing the darkness shrouded in Berkshire, and the team of dozens of handsome men began to agitate, because there was some movement behind the rusty door in front.

The person in charge of recruitment is about to appear, and the recruitment will begin.

Without waiting for those young people to do something about Tangqi, a "competitor", invisible fluctuations suddenly overflow.

When the "red" was released, the lively team immediately stagnated, and soon they strengthened a brand-new idea in their hearts:

"I will strive for myself and not be a shameful little white face!"

In such a roar, dozens of handsome men, one after another, clenched their fists and scattered with fighting spirit on their faces.

When an old man with white hair, face and arms full of age spots, "hardship" opened the door. He had seen many lively scenes, but this time he did not appear.

All he saw was a young figure coming towards him in the warm sunshine.

The old man squinted for a few seconds before he realized that he was too young and seemed to be a wandering pharmacist.

Then he saw the young man come up. In his surprised eyes, he smiled brightly and said, "Hello, I'll apply for nursing."

……

In the morning, a valuable old black car staggered away from the city center and drove to the suburban "Berkshire mountain".

On the bus, Alfred, who was showing his old driver's style, drove skillfully up the mountain and looked at Tang Qi through the rearview mirror. He asked curiously, "do you like a pharmacist to be a male nurse? You know, it would be very hard and without dignity."

"Although miss, she was very beautiful when she was young, she is so old after all, and she has a bad temper."

When Tang Qi heard the speech, he took a thoughtful look at the white old man and continued to maintain his personal setup.

He smiled brightly and replied gently, "as you can see, I'm just a wandering pharmacist. My travel expenses have been used up. If I can take care of old lady Charlotte for a period of time and get appropriate remuneration, why don't I do it."

"Moreover, even if there is no reward, I am willing to help a lonely old man."

As he spoke, Tang Qi occasionally glanced out of the window at the desolate scenery that kept sweeping past, which was inconsistent with some pictures in the information given by Leia.

In Liya's description, Berkshire mountain, which is more beautiful than the "deer mountain", is extremely desolate when reflected in Tang Qimu. All the trees have become bare, dark and gray, contaminated with everything. It seems difficult to find other creatures except the occasional crows.

In the strange silence, there seems to be unspeakable terrible life.

Soon, the old car crunched over the stone bridge that seemed to have not been cleaned for many years, and drove along the deserted manor channel to a huge ancient castle.

Tang Qi got out of the car and closed the door with a bang.

At this time, Alfred's voice came from behind. The old man didn't get off the bus. He just looked at Tang Qi with a look of regret in his eyes and said, "Sir, if you regret it, I can take you back now."

"People like you are really not suitable for this job. Maybe those idle gangsters in Berkshire are more suitable."

Sharp perception made it easy for Tangqi to hear the hidden meaning of Alfred's words, so he waved his hand and didn't look back: "go back, Alfred, your work is over and cancel the recruitment."

Hearing this, Alfred was stunned at first, and immediately became confused in his eyes. He obediently replied, "yes, sir."

Tang Qi stood in front of the castle and looked at the dense, dark fog flowing down from the distant mountains, shrouding the castle. The diffuse fog made this area gloomy and scary.

At the bottom of his eyes, intermittent pieces of information emerged.

"Fallen soul... Pollution..."

Tang Qi, who had been vaguely guessing, thought of the information provided by Leia, sighed, then crushed a dead branch and entered the castle without hesitation.

Although Tang Qi came for the first time, he didn't show any sign of getting lost, because the moment he stepped into the castle, the hoarse and sad sound of the piano suddenly came, leading Tang Qi through the garden, corridors and rooms, and finally appeared in a side hall.

At the end of the front, in front of an old piano, sat an old figure in a big red skirt.

She seems to be very devoted, playing a song called "beating heart". The work of a composer a hundred years ago describes love at first sight.

But the music that should be cheerful and sweet, played from the old figure, is hoarse and beautiful, even with a shivering horror.

When Tang Qi walked over, he saw a picture of a little girl on the cabinet, table or wall.

Her age is about fifteen or sixteen.

In the photo, she has blond hair and fair skin. Most of them are wearing red skirts and various hats. Her appearance is amazing and exudes an amazing sweet smell.

I don't know when the sound of the piano has stopped.

The old voice crept into Tangqi's ear.

"Did I look good when I was young?"

With the sound, the positive image of the old figure turned slowly.

The first thing that catches the eye is a crazy face that can make people collapse in an instant. The sparse blond hair is combed back and full of wrinkles. It seems that the skin that is going to be broken at any time is tightly adhered to the bones. The eyes, nostrils and mouth are rotten. The fat maggots twist in it and eat the only rotten meat.

In order to look good, she also painted lipstick on her lips, bright red.

Boom!

When she turned around, the original colorful and magnificent side hall seemed to speed up tens of thousands of times. Everything was decaying, mottled colors climbed up, choking dust was flying in the air, and those exciting photos faded quickly.

The sweet girl inside is being replaced by a disgusting old woman.

In front of Tang Qi's eyes, a light wind suddenly blew over, and his eyes blinked. The disgusting and crazy face almost pasted on his face. The stench came with a terrible smell.

"Answer me, do I... Look good?"

This terrible accident could not change Tang Qi's face even a little.

He seemed to have guessed it would be like this, and sighed from the bottom of his heart: "scum man, what a sin."
