The red moon returns

Chapter 318 Something happened

There is no fairness in fate, and the joys and sorrows of people are not the same.

The lives of the children of Mrs. Sterling, the bread seller, were still before their eyes.

After losing their land, a family of more than ten people squeezed into two small rooms of more than ten square meters, struggling in poverty and hunger, spending their lives amidst the roar of steam and gears, until one day they collapsed unknown to anyone. , or disappear unknown to anyone.

No change can be seen, no hope can be found, everything is like a railroad track. No matter how hard you run, you can't break away from the shackles of the track.

Fortunately, education is becoming more common in the world, which may be the seed of future change. Nowadays, most ordinary families are willing to send their children to elementary schools for four years of basic education, and some families are even willing to spend a lot of money to send their children to secondary schools to learn more professional knowledge.

Such as Lynch.

Lynch is very grateful to his parents who are far away in heaven for sending him to a municipal secondary school, which is where most children from ordinary families receive secondary education.

But the children of wealthy families are different. They prefer to send their children to expensive private academies, pushing their children's starting line behind the finishing line of ordinary children.

Lilia Girls' School, just two blocks away, is one of them.

They live in a single dormitory with a living room and eat a diet prepared one-on-one by a professional nutritionist. The young ladies wear neat floral dresses and stroll among the fountains and gardens every day, and there are bright lights in a row of windows. I spent four wonderful years in the classroom of the small Victorian building.

This is Lilia Girls' School, one of the top private intermediate colleges in the Rhine City. It specializes in serving aristocrats and wealthy families. From teachers to staff, they are all women. The management is very strict. There are guards in blue uniforms outside and strong ones inside. Female guards and unrelated personnel are absolutely not allowed to enter, especially men. People inside rarely leave the school gate. The whole school is old-fashioned and closed.

But today was an exception. It was almost noon, and several middle-aged and elderly ladies in plain clothes appeared behind the door.

These were the principal and several etiquette teachers, the most powerful people in the school and the most traditional people who never left the school. At this time, they were gathered neatly behind the door.

This caused the young girls in the school to gather together in groups, whispering, until two black carriages stopped at the school gate.

The tightly closed metal school gate actually opened in cooperation, and at this time, he took the initiative to welcome people out of the school gate and met the people coming out of the carriage.

An elderly man dressed as a butler is already quite old, but he is calm, reserved but not humble, low-key but not timid. Just standing there, he already shows the style of a wealthy family.

At first glance, he was a butler from a noble family. He was more imposing than most nobles themselves. As for the handsome young man behind him... it was a bit strange.

The face has soft edges and corners, and there are obvious traces of makeup, but it has two sticks of beard on it. At first glance, she is pretending to be a man. And he was wearing a full set of men's clothes, which looked quite similar.

Seeing the two people being personally welcomed in by the principal under the leadership of a student from the school, a well-informed student explained that they heard that a big noble would send someone to inspect the school's environment today, and it should be these two people.

While muttering, after the two parties exchanged greetings for a while, the female principal invited the male-clothed visitor and the female student next to her into the school.

Yes, that’s Lynch’s new trick.

For this kind of thing, Lynch is not interested in dressing up as a woman again, and Dr. Jenna has proven with actual actions that he is not yet a qualified crossdresser, but it is really inconvenient for men to enter a girls' school to investigate, even if they can use lurking It is still very dangerous to enter, and you will be in trouble if you are discovered.

So he simply changed his mind and I pretended to be myself.

He just asked Mrs. Maggie to help with a little makeup to make his appearance softer and more neutral. He also put on an obvious fake beard. In addition, his voice was already more neutral. Under the psychological influence, seeing his People will instinctively judge him as a man deliberately pretending to be a woman. The simplest double fraud technique, I learned it while watching the drama.

Of course, this is not safe enough and is very suspicious. At this time, another method is needed.

One of the best ways to fake it is to put the real thing in front of you, so Lynch went straight to Valente's house.

Although the energetic old housekeeper Mr. Louis almost shot him to death when he saw Lynch bringing a young female student to show off, he finally accepted Lynch's crazy plan with Miss Valente's permission. .

"Although His Excellency the Count is far away in Norlin, he is worried that the eldest daughter will be lonely in the Rhine alone. He wants to send several distant ladies in the family to study here. He can also accompany the eldest daughter during the holidays. The only problem is which girls' school to choose. "

What Mr. Louis said was reasonable and sincere. When he was young, he often made up stories for the Earl:
"As mentioned in the letter just now, this young lady...this Excellency is here to inspect on behalf of the Earl. She...he needs to walk around the school today. The teachers should not mind."

The wealthy butler originally had the reputation of a wealthy family, and one sentence confirmed people's judgment of Lin Qi's identity. As for why he pretended to be a man when he went to a girls' school to investigate, it is better not to ask about the affairs of the nobles, as long as he is sure that he is not a man. Well, nothing else matters.

The principal is an old woman, she looks to be in her sixties or seventies. She seems to have something wrong with her spine, her back is always stooped, but she is still in good spirits. His expression was the same old-fashioned and serious, but no matter how old-fashioned he was, he had to bow to his performance. The impact of enrolling members of a wealthy family on the school was self-evident, and the principal quickly agreed.

As for the issue of irrelevant persons not being allowed to enter the school, what about irrelevant persons? What about the parents of future students of this school and the fathers of donors? Can we call them irrelevant persons?

As a result, Lynch easily sneaked into the girls' school, and faced with the request of the sponsor's father, a group of old women agreed without even thinking, allowing him to investigate on his own.

How wonderful.

Facing a group of teenage girls... no, facing the beautiful campus environment, Lin Qi admired in his heart, but under Ms. Luna's meaningful laughter, Lin Qi quickly returned to business.

According to Monia, the fundamental problem was not in the ritual. Although the ritual was the direct cause, the origin of the ritual was the key.

The incident had too many human factors and was too targeted. Anyone who could make such a design must have a good understanding of Monia's recent behavior. Although the girls' school does not prevent students from going home for the night, it does encourage students to stay on campus. Therefore, the problem is likely to be in the school, and other places are interference. Therefore, Lynch is not afraid of trouble and chose this place as his first target.

Lynch directly found a place where no one was and went into hiding. After entering with a public identity, he could observe in secret without any worries.

And Monia has returned to her grade, where more than a dozen teenage girls gather together in a classroom that looks like a luxurious living room. Her situation seems to be okay. Ashes incidents around her are not particularly frequent. Her classmates are just a little nervous and dare not approach her. There is no extreme behavior. But Lynch also knew that if it became more frequent, the consequences would be dire. Fear is often the beginning of madness.

This matter must be resolved as soon as possible and panic cannot be allowed to brew.

However, as he was thinking about it, Lin Qi suddenly realized that something was wrong. Moniya, who was still normal when he was observing her just now, suddenly had a vague black shadow behind her.

It was a very small group, at most the size of a baby, vague. Lin Qi blinked and was about to strengthen his inspiration and look more carefully, but the black shadow suddenly disappeared out of thin air as if it was being sensed.

Ok?
At the same time, a girl's scream came from outside the classroom.

What happened by such a coincidence?
Lin Qi's heart tightened, he maintained his latent state, and was the first to rush out of the classroom.
