When we left, the sun had just risen, and the shadows of pedestrians and carriages were stretched very long.
The pronunciation of the four words "Bolnia" means "City of Hope" in ancient language. When this word was originally used to name the capital of England, it was full of hope.
In other words, this is also a tolerant city that can accommodate everything in the world, including all kinds of misfortunes.
The closer you get to the Xinlan Sea, the more violent and turbulent it becomes. Unlike the central city, potions and slave trading are commonplace.
The tall spiers and Gothic-style structures on the roadside create a special sense of beauty. The low, hazy clouds cover up the brilliance of the sun, and the salty sea breeze is still sticky, shaking the vendors' stalls.
The only color on the decadent streets was the promotional poster for the circus tour, which was posted just above the end of the Silver Hook Competition, covering the smiling faces of the winners.
Winter is about to enter, and Polnia is the last stop of the wild beast circus tour, but this year the cold air seems to arrive earlier than before.
After walking around in front of the house, I thought that Yulia happened to be at home on shift, so I went upstairs to change my clothes and went out. I went to the dessert shop opposite to buy exquisitely packaged candies, and took a public carriage back to the familiar street.
Due to exposure to wind and sun, the nameplate of the "Decavo" family has aged and gradually faded.
It's time to change it regularly, Jiang Chenchuan thought, raising his hand and knocking on the door.
Yulia was a very well-behaved and obedient little girl. She would stay at home and read medical books in her free time. When he first came to Decapau's house, she was still a student and would act coquettishly with him and ask for sweets.
After knocking on the door three times, probably due to the psychological shadow left by Ethan last time, I heard Yulia cautiously ask on the other side of the door:
"who is it?"
"it's me."
Only when she heard Jiang Chenchuan's voice did Yulia open the door with confidence.
"I just came back from the museum and happened to see the medical department's schedule."
Jiang Chenchuan walked into the room and explained, accepted Yulia's invitation and sat on the sofa.
"What's the matter? Mr. Iver."
He turned around and poured a glass of hot water, handed it to Jiang Chenchuan, walked around and sat down opposite him.
Looking carefully, Yulia looks a little different from what she remembers. She has grown taller and more mature, but sometimes, Jiang Chenchuan still subconsciously treats her as a child, even though they are similar in age now .
She was too embarrassed to take out the candy in her pocket, so she could only scratch her head in embarrassment. Unexpectedly, it was Yulia who spoke first:
"How are you recovering from your last injury?"
"Recovering well, thank you for your help."
"Don't worry, Mr. Iver, this is my duty."
Yulia looked at the tear stain on Jiang Chenchuan's face, with complicated emotions flashing in her eyes, but soon she organized her thoughts and responded freely.
The atmosphere was a bit dull, so Jiang Chenchuan could only talk about other topics first. He asked about Yulia's current situation and gave answers to her little troubles one by one.
Sometimes, unintentional topics can naturally lead to the answers you want.
"...If you don't mind, could you tell me about that rainy night?"
"Thank you, Mr. Iver. The Rainy Night Murder Case has had a very bad impact on Polnia. They all want to catch the real culprit, and few people care about my thoughts."
When talking about this matter, Yulia seemed a little sad, and sometimes she would wake up in her dreams when she was sleeping, feeling that the man was still alive beside her.
But she had seen Jiang Chenchuan's body and personally confirmed his state of death.
"Is Mr. Ewell investigating?"
"Sorry, I just have some doubts about the rainy night murder case."
Yulia lowered her head and thought for a while, as if she had figured something out, and then said:
"If I can be of any help..."
Julia Decavo.
The youngest daughter of the Decapau family, a family of seven all lived together. On that nightmarish rainy night, Yulia did her homework assigned by the teacher in her room as usual.
There was talk and laughter downstairs. She looked up at the time and saw that it was time for Jiang Chenchuan to get off work. When she thought of the gift he promised to buy her yesterday, she couldn't wait to greet it.
Her sister was arranging flowers in the living room, and her parents were busy in the kitchen. It was almost dinner time, and Yulia put the medical books she had piled on the table back on the bookshelf. As soon as she put them on the shelf, she heard a knock on the door.
"Eh? Why did Brother Chuan come back earlier today? Sister, go and open the door."
Yulia, who was overwhelmed, hurriedly called out. Perhaps no one thought that this unintentional move would bring disaster to this small family.
The door is opened,
There was a person standing outside who was all red. Yulia's sister was startled. It was still raining. It was hard to tell whether it was blood or rain, they were all mixed together.
The enthusiastic Decavo family quickly brought the person in. She seemed to have suffered some kind of disaster. Every part of her body was rotten to varying degrees. She looked painful and kept making hoarse calls for help.
Only Yulia in the family had studied medicine. She observed the woman's condition and opened the damaged clothes. The wounds were hideous. Perhaps because of the rain and cold, even the skin had turned purple and all the veins were exposed.
Yulia gave her a brief examination and judged that she needed first aid to stop the bleeding, and immediately sent her to the hospital. Scanning her eyes, she found a strange mark in the center of the woman's chest, half covered with blood, about It's an eye pattern.
She wanted to reach out and touch her, but the woman didn't know where she got the strength to grab Yulia's wrist and stop her movement.
Yulia was startled, but when she saw the woman's determined eyes, she explained softly and softly that she just wanted to help her and had no intention of infringing, and the woman slowly let go of her hand.
However, where she had grabbed her, there was a clear black and red scratch mark.
Not caring so much, the woman's symptoms got worse, but the family lacked some emergency surgical equipment and medicines, so Yulia asked her family to help take care of the woman first. She went out to buy some and would be back in a few minutes.
The long snake was wrapped around a goblet, but she didn't expect that the nearest pharmacy was not open that night, so Yulia had to take a detour and go to a farther place, which caused a lot of delays. time.
When she came back with the medicine box, all she saw was a lonely figure standing on the street in the pouring rain, with black hair sticking to his cheek, and at his feet, lying a red body. The rain keeps flowing into the distance.
She only felt a "buzzing" sound in her head, and the scream kept amplifying in her ears, and her mind was in a trance.
She woke up from her memories and said to Jiang Chenchuan who now possessed Yvel's body:
"This is what I saw, and this..."
Yulia raised her hand and lifted up her sleeves. She could vaguely see a scar on a handprint, which continued to grow along her arm and was also healing.
"It's a curse."
