Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

The second floor of the old house, the study.

Chi Feichi was standing in front of the bookshelf, talking to Koizumi Hongzi on the phone in a low voice.

"That's the pattern."

"I received the email... It's very similar, but it's not the one I drew before," Koizumi Hongzi said, "My pattern in red magic means concealment, and your pattern should be of the Holy Spirit. The pattern of the door..."

"Gate of the Holy Spirit?" Chi Feichi recalled, "I only know of a pattern born in the Cthulhu mythology created by American novelist Howard Philip Lovecraft, called the Gate of the Necromancer, with the It's kind of similar."

"Well... wait a minute," Koizumi Hongzi lingered for a long time over there, "the door of the dead... I found it, the meaning explained on the Internet, like the door of the Holy Spirit, has the meaning of protecting and resisting evil, and at the same time it is a The entrance to the more ancient gods. When I use magic and need to use the power of dangerous gods such as Satan, I will prepare a door of the Holy Spirit. It is indeed a pattern used to prevent being killed by cruel gods. The gate of the dead is probably imitated by the creator from the legend of the gate of the Holy Spirit, the painting method is wrong, it is useless at all..."

"It's not bad without misinterpreting the meaning." Chi Feichi asked, "Is there really Satan?"

"Yes, do you want to meet? Then when you come back, I will summon you once, but it is just a projection, and the projection power is not much," Koizumi Hongzi seemed to be still flipping through the page, "Speaking of misinterpretation... death The Spirit Gate seems to have been regarded as a sign of Satan and evil all these years, which is obviously a sign of resistance to evil..."

Chi Fei was late for a moment.

The owner of this house, that is, the murderer, had read a few pages of the book with the 'Gate of the Necromancer' in a mess. Then he looked for it and found a letter in the cracks of the bookshelf. letter.

The content of the letter is as follows: My child, this is the house passed down by the ancestors, do not change its layout, you will have a magical discovery, when it is opened, you will be blessed by God...

Yes, it's another message that seems to have treasure in the house.

I don't know what's going on in this world, the ancestors seem to like playing this kind of routine very much.

He went inside the house and turned around. The layout, plus some fixed furniture and furnishings, was very similar to the pattern of the door of the dead that the owner drew on the book.

In other words, the owner found the key to the house's hidden secrets.

The ancestors set the layout of the house into the pattern of the door of the dead, which probably means to make this house a safe haven that can resist evil, but the tragedy is that because some people misinterpret the pattern, the owner thinks that this is a representative With the pattern of evil or Satan, in the pursuit of evil, there is no return...

Koizumi Hongzi listened to Chi Feichi's analysis and agreed, "Maybe that's the case, that's a pity, he didn't understand the meaning of the ancestors at all..."

"Master!" Feimo found Chi Feichi, jumped into the room, and looked at the room, "It's amazing, this study is right below the secret room, and right below the crime scene on the third floor..."

Chi Feichi turned to look at Feimo, he seemed to have found something more interesting than finding Joshua, "Tell me about the layout of the room in detail."

Feimo began to talk about his findings.

The study on the second floor, the bedroom on the first floor, the crime scene on the third floor, and the secret room above the third floor are all in a straight line.

Chi Feichi restored the layout of the house in his mind, "These houses are right in the middle of the door of the dead..."

"The center point?" Koizumi Hongzi wondered, "Is it the center of the outer circle? That's the end point."

"That is to say, there are other important points?" Chi Feichi asked.

"I'm not sure about the door of the dead, but this pattern is the same as the door of the Holy Spirit. It is composed of circles, pentagrams, inverted V-shaped patterns, and inverted 'and'-shaped patterns, but there are some details. "It's different," Koizumi Hongzi said, "for the gate of the Holy Spirit, the center of the circle is the end point, and it is also where the gate of the Holy Spirit opens and the projection of the gods appears. The starting point of V is the starting point, that is, the person who relies on the power of gods should stand. The place, the pentagram is used to stabilize, and the final drop point of 'again' is the place where the power is transmitted, that is to say, the door only allows you to see the projection of the gods with the help of the power, and the real power is transmitted from another point came over..."

Chi Feichi turned around and went out.

As someone who doesn't learn magic, it's a bit confusing.

Fei Mo fluttered his wings and flew over.

What? What about Joshua?

How can those things be interesting to watch the master solve puzzles and hunt for treasures?

Wait a minute!

"I don't know if the wrong pattern that was changed later, like the Gate of the Necromancer, has such meaning, I don't know," Koizumi Hongzi suggested enthusiastically, "Would you like to take a look? Go to the starting point of V Take a look at the place where the pen is written, as to which floor it is..."

"I'm already there, it should be on the first floor," Chi Feichi pressed the map restored in his mind, went downstairs and walked to a room, "Look at the overlapping part of the door of the dead, the order of drawing is circle, pentagram, Also, V, a combination of four patterns, here the third floor plus the attic and the secret room are also four floors. If the secret room on the fourth floor corresponds to the end point in the middle of the circle, then the drawing order should be reversed, and the third floor should be reversed. The layer represents the pentagram, the second layer is the second layer, the first layer is the V, and the starting point is the first layer.”

The destination is a storage room. There are some sundries placed in the corner of the wall, and a thick layer of dust has fallen.

After Chi Feichi entered the door, he walked to the starting point corresponding to V, leaned his left hand against the inner wall, raised his hand and knocked, there was nothing abnormal on the wall, and stomped his feet.

click.

There was a small sound underfoot.

Seems to be the right one.

However, is this ancestor a bit embarrassing for future generations?

According to the layout and furnishings of the house, it is not easy to find the pattern of the door of the dead.

The starting point is at the beginning of V's writing. Who knows in this society now?

If there is no Koizumi Hongzi, he can't find it, and he will probably think that the secret room in the middle of the pattern is all.

...

Ten minutes ago, in the secret room.

The middle-aged man who didn't see the non-mouse looked away, and saw Joshua still staring at the door in a daze, frowning, "Joshua, what do you mean? I personally came to invite you to join my church, and it has been very helpful. You've lost face!"

After Joshua saw the crow leave, the pattern on the ground still didn't respond, and he looked back in frustration, "You don't understand."

The middle-aged man scolded his mother for a while, and said angrily, "What?"

"I know him, the original owner of this house is the murderer who stabbed two people," Joshua said slowly, "No, there should be three, and one was when he went to Romania. I've known him for over twenty years, and he was a humble man until twelve years ago, when his parents died, and he was like a different person, and he started chasing gifts from the devil..."

The middle-aged man endured the impatience in his heart.

Is this old man mentally ill?

Forget it, it's still early, and no one here is looking for it. It's good to listen to a story.

"He doesn't go to church anymore, he says he shouldn't believe in the Lord, his belief is Satan, it's the devil," Joshua sighed. "I think he's crazy and has to save him."

"He doesn't need to save," the middle-aged man said, "it's you who should save."

Joshua ignored the man, and still said to himself, "He told me that he was destined to serve Satan, he became obsessed with vampire legends, and he also talked about opening the door of the dead and praying for eternal life, and then He killed people. He was shot by the police because he resisted when he was arrested. People who used to live nearby found the church and asked me to pray for the dead souls who died here so that they could enter the kingdom of Jesus. After I came, Walking around the house, I found a secret, this house does have a door of the dead..."

The middle-aged man looked at the pattern made of black and white bricks at the door, "I know!"

"No, you don't know!" Joshua's face was serious, with a trace of disdain.

He was not talking about the door of the Necromancer at the door, but the layout of the Door of the Necromancer in this house.

This stupid man didn't even know that this secret room was in the middle of the whole house's Necromantic door. To be precise, the Necromantic door pattern at the entrance of the secret room was the middle of the large Necromantic door covering half of the house. .

His friend had specially measured it at the beginning, and determined that it was the place to open the door of the undead!

man:"……"

#～%@…!

Come, talk!

Isn't the pattern on the door not the door of the dead?

Joshua retorted, didn't look at the man again, and continued, "This secret room is in the center of the door of the dead. When I found it, I also found the things he used to clean up blood and carry blood... "

The middle-aged man couldn't help but look at the pile of debris in the corner, the dark brown stains on it were very dazzling.

"That's right, those are the traces left after the victim's blood dried up," Joshua said without raising his head, "but when I found this place, the case was closed, and I didn't want anyone to come here. Disturbing him and the undead of the two people who were brutally killed by him~www.NovelMTL.com~ So I concealed the matter of this place. This time, my original faith abandoned me, and I am willing to devote myself to the darkness, whether it is Satan or Demon, I am willing to dedicate my loyal faith..."

"That's why you should join my church," the middle-aged man couldn't help but said, "We are all devout believers of Satan!"

Joshua: "No, you're not!"

Middle-aged man: "..."

(;'O')o

"You don't even know Belial," Joshua said sadly, not taking the man's blushing face to heart, "My friend once said, 'When the door of the dead is opened, you will gain access to God Grant', after I found out that the pattern on the door of this secret room is the door of the dead, I have always regarded it as an evil thing. When I wanted to open it, I found that I was like him and could not open the secret here. I think I probably need to Prepare some offerings..."

In the middle of the doorway pattern, Chi Feichi slowly rose from below: "..."

This is a terminal, how to open it?

The storage room on the first floor is the starting point, that is, the entrance. After the mechanism is activated, if you stand without moving, the plate under your feet will be automatically taken away by the mechanism.

At the same time as he went up, there were many gold nuggets along the road. Based on the height he felt, the place where the gold nuggets were piled up was probably on the second floor, which was in line with the power meaning represented by the corresponding 'and' pattern.

There is nothing on the third floor, probably to stabilize the second floor and take over the secret room on the fourth floor.

On the fourth floor, here is the end point and the exit, which is the meaning of the end point in the middle of the 'circle'.

The design is interesting, but the mechanism shouldn't work in reverse, and it can't go back from the exit to the entrance.

It also led to ... very pitiful descendants.

Sacrifice or something, no matter how many sacrifices, if you can't find the entrance, you still can't open it.
