Xu Shu took down all the candles in the corridor on the third floor, then found a large bowl, and melted all the candles into wax oil.

He came into the studio with the big bowl, and poured wax on all the flammable objects here and there—especially the portraits of Aaliyah.

Finally, light the fire.

Flames immediately burned along the canvas, rising rapidly in just a few seconds, and burning bigger and bigger.

Xu Shu stood in front of him and watched for a while, and turned and walked out of the studio when he was sure that the fire could not be easily extinguished.

He was not in a hurry, he went all the way down to the living room, and walked around in the living room, as if he had just noticed it, he asked the maid who was cleaning the dust not far away: "Do you smell anything, like Where is the fire?"

The maid was taken aback, sniffed and sniffed for a while, then walked into the living room and looked upstairs.

"Is it the third floor?" Xu Shu looked uncertain.

The fire hadn't reached that level yet, and there was no smoke coming down from the stairs. The maid wasn't sure for a while, so she put down the rag in her hand and said, "I'll go up and have a look."

She ran up, Xu Shuzai listened carefully to the sound of her running, silently estimated the time in his heart, and quickly walked to the nearby restaurant to hide.

Soon, an unexpected shout came from upstairs——

"It's bad! It's on fire! The studio is on fire!"

Xu Shu leaned sideways on the wall between the dining room and the living room, only showing one eye carefully looking at the direction of the basement. Two seconds later, a ball of black smoke flashed past the stairs, and then disappeared quickly.

If there were no accidents, Joseph must have rushed to the third floor at this time.

He didn't dare to delay, and rushed to the basement as fast as he could.

Lauren loves Alicia deeply, and there is love between Aliya and Joseph.

The lovers were separated, and Aaliyah was forced to marry Lauren—or, as she wished, never to leave the castle.

And Joseph has been accidentally transformed into a vampire when he was sucked by Lauren, and what is known is that Joseph is the next owner of the castle, another master vampire.

There is definitely more than one place in this world where vampires can live, and there are still extremely painful memories here for Joseph.

In any case, he should not be the next owner here.

Unless...he has a reason to come here.

For example, after leaving the castle, he learned that Alia had returned to Lauren to save him.

So, wouldn't he have plans to come back to save her or seek revenge on Lauren?

Now that the bone can be determined to be Alia, it means that Alia is likely to have died before Joseph came back.

Of course, this is nothing very strange.

After all, when Lauren learned the truth, how could he treat him kindly when he was so angry?

As a vampire, he has countless ways to torture Arya.

So Arya died - but Lauren must have loved her to put her body in the same coffin she slept in.

After that, Joseph grew into a powerful vampire, and came back to avenge Lauren, becoming the new master here.

Andre is the son of Aaliyah and Lauren, and he is supposed to live in the castle with his parents.So why didn't Joseph, who came back for revenge, kill Lauren's son together?

Is it for Aaliyah?After all, it was her child, so he let him go, and sent Andre to another place—otherwise, there should be Andre in the time and space of Joseph on Xu Shu's side, but he Didn't mention it.

In the hundreds of years after that, Andre returned to the castle again, killed Joseph, and avenged his biological father.

Is that right?

Ji Chuan frowned, vaguely feeling that something was wrong.

Time and space had quietly changed while he was thinking, and he came to Andre's space.

He was still standing in the basement, the candlelight on the wall was flickering, illuminating everything in the basement dimly, full of mystery.

The textures on the surface of the three coffins shone faintly under the dim candlelight, which looked a bit strangely beautiful.

……

Wait, three coffins?

Ji Chuan's brows tightened even more - why are there three coffins?

Alia used Lauren's mouth, so he must need another coffin to rest in, plus the second-generation master Joseph, and the current Andre, there should be four coffins here.

Was Joseph's coffin thrown out by Andre, who hated him?Or did Joseph destroy Lauren's coffin?

or……

Ji Chuan squinted his eyes, turned around and ran upstairs, did not see Andre in the hall, thought for a while and ran towards the painting

room.

Sure enough, when the door was opened, Andre was standing in front of the portrait of Alia in the studio.

This time he was no longer surprised, he just turned his head to look at Ji Chuan lightly, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ji Chuan walked over step by step, stared at his face and asked, "Whose coffin is missing in the basement?"

Andre was taken aback, and asked without answering, "Why are you asking this?"

"Is your father, Lauren, still alive?"

Ji Chuan took another step forward, and Andrei took a step back involuntarily due to the strong momentum.

The missing coffin in the basement must be a useful clue.

It shouldn't be as simple as Lauren's or Joseph's coffin being thrown out.

Besides this simple guess, the remaining possibility is that one of these two people did not die at all.

Andre said that he killed Joseph.If he hadn't lied, then Lauren should still be alive.

"you……"

Andre looked at Ji Chuan in surprise, his lips trembled several times, and then he said, "You, how do you know?"

Why didn't Joseph kill Lauren?And since Lauren was not killed by Joseph, why did Andre kill him?

Ji Chuan grabbed Andre by the collar, and asked in a deep voice, "What did Joseph do to your father? Abuse?"

Andre's eyes widened suddenly, and the word shock was written all over his face.

Ji Chuan suddenly thought of something, and his heart suddenly became anxious. He raised the sickle with his right hand in the air, put it on Andre's neck and said coldly: "Answer me!"

Andre was shocked by the cold blade, and then came back to his senses, and said: "Yes, he has been abusing my father! Otherwise, how could I hate him so much that I want to kill him?! But after he died Finally, my father told me all the truth..."

With a sound of "Puff", before he finished speaking, the black sickle quickly cut off and slashed open his neck!

Blood spurted out immediately, staining the portrait beside him blood red.

The next moment, the entire space that lost its owner collapsed.

Ji Chuan came back to Lauren—in order to come back as soon as possible, he even killed Andre.

Xu Shu finally entered Joseph's basement.

The moment he stepped in, a smell of blood and garlic rushed into his nostrils, and he was caught off guard and almost couldn't help but spit it out.

The pungent smell lingers for a long time, so that people don't even have the desire to look inside.

But he could only bite the bullet and walk in.

After turning the corner of the stairs, the situation in the dark basement came into view at once.

When he saw everything in it, Xu Shu was stunned——

The black and gold coffin was still placed upright in the center, but there was no coffin under the wall opposite it, replaced by a person tied to the wall.

The man was naked, his hair was disheveled covering his face, and half of his arm was missing.

He seemed to be dirty, with clumps of marks everywhere, which looked a bit like dried blood.

What bound him didn't look like an ordinary chain, it stretched out from the wall and wrapped around him in circles, making it impossible for him to even move.

Only two wall lamps were lit in the basement. Xu Shu couldn't see more clearly for a while, so he walked forward for a while, and after passing the coffin in the middle, he discovered that there was a pot of bright red flowers not far in front of the person. of blood.

The blood had just been put in, and it hadn't coagulated yet.

And the smell of garlic was getting stronger and stronger, but he still couldn't see where it was, and then he thought about it, it should be smeared on the iron chain that bound the other party.

Xu Shu was shocked by what he saw in front of him. He never expected that such a gentle and elegant person like Joseph would do such terrible things in the basement.

But now he didn't have any extra time to express his feelings. He quickly stepped forward and lifted the man's drooping head vigorously.

Although he probably guessed it in his heart when he walked into the basement, he still couldn't help being slightly surprised when that face really appeared in front of him.

That's right - it really is Lauren.

The man he had only seen in portraits actually appeared here alive, and in such a distressed appearance.

In the end what happened?Why was this first-generation grand master vampire tortured like this by Joseph?

During this short period of time, Xu Shu noticed that Lauren's broken arm was slowly repairing.

In other words, it is very likely that he is enduring the same torture over and over again.

Cut off limbs, grow back, cut off again...

This kind of torture... is really terrible.

why?How could Joseph treat him like this?Is it because Lauren stole his sweetheart?

"You really came in."

A cold voice like a poisonous snake uttering a letter came from behind Xu Shu.

"I reminded you," Joseph walked towards him step by step from the stairs, his eyes were as cold as if he was looking at a dead person: "I don't want to hurt anyone, but since you discovered my secret, I can only let you died."

Ji Chuan's forehead began to sweat.

He returned to Lauren's space, but Joseph, who had just turned into a vampire and was released by Lauren, was not here.

As for Xu Shu's side... In order to find clues, he will definitely try his best to enter Joseph's basement to find out.

If he discovered Joseph's secret, how could the other party let him live?

Ji Chuan didn't know how Xu Shu's progress was, but he had already found out all the truth here, so he must not be much worse there.

Perhaps Xu Shu has already entered the basement at this time, and is even facing the danger of being killed by Joseph...

He originally wanted to go back to Lauren to stop Joseph's revenge plan and save Xu Shu in the future space, but Joseph has not returned to the castle yet.

Then, the only way is to kill Lauren.And, it has to be fast.
