Monument of Life and Death

Chapter 531: Morwen family

  Chapter 531 Mowen Family

When    struck late at night, Xiaolan stepped up to the third floor of the quiet castle.

  It’s one o’clock in the morning, and the castle is silent. Perhaps listen carefully and you can hear the breathing of the people living here.

  The study is on the third floor of the castle.

   Xiaolan walked in the dimly lit corridor, passing by the door of the room with candle tears left.

   is tightly locked.

   Xiaolan then walked forward, and according to the maid’s instructions, the most spacious room at the end of the third floor was the study.

   Pushing open the door, it is a small space. There is no window in the room. There is a bookcase against the wall. There is a half-person high table next to the bookcase on the roof.

  There is a delicate wooden door on the other wall.

  This should be the small study that the maid said to store the letters of the servants. Inside the door, it should be the big study.

   Xiaolan walked straight to the golden wooden door, put the thread-shaped handle on her right hand, and unscrewed it.

  The candle in his hand quietly lit up the darkness around him, and Xiaolan approached the spacious study room.

  There are about a dozen rows of mahogany bookshelves erected in the study. There is a work table by the window. The chairs are well put under the table. Several stacks of documents are placed on the table. A candlestick stands beside the documents.

   Xiaolan lit the candlestick, and the huge study room suddenly became bright.

"I'm sorry……"

   Xiaolan said, first flipping through the documents on the desk.

  A charity entry, a donation from a wealthy businessman, and a letter of intent for investment. On the top is a land appraisal plan. It is estimated that Mr. Mo Wen traveled for this purpose.

  No letters.

  Xiaolan opened the drawer again. Mr. Mo Wen was generous enough, and the place where important documents were stored was actually open. Of course, Xiaolan could not find anything other than official documents.

Is it on the bookshelf?

   Holding the candles, Xiaolan checked the tall bookcases.

The side of each bookcase is marked with the type of books stored on the bookcase, which is like a small library. Xiaolan gradually walked into the depths of the room. On the penultimate bookcase, he saw the word "letter". .

  There are not many letters on the bookcase, but they are neatly arranged and arranged carefully in chronological order.

  Xiaolan draws out the latest letter.

   is a letter addressed to Mr. Mor Wen.

   Xiaolan hesitated whether to open it, and finally opened the envelope without giving up any clues.

  "Mr. Morwen, who I miss,

I have received your letter. The tragic deeds that have happened to you have actually been heard a little bit by me, but my attitude is still the same. This is not a reason to prevent us from being together. Even if there is a curse, I believe in it. , We must be able to think of a way to break the curse..."

  Is it a letter from Sandora to Mr. Morwen?

  Xiaolan then looked down.

"If it is true that the curse exists in the castle that has been circulating for several years, I think we might as well leave the castle, or even the village, and find another place to live. With this idea, I will be here. I have searched for a suitable house in my city, and I have already had many ideas. When the time is right, we can take Lily and Moses together. Please believe that the nightmare will always end and our love will eventually prevail. curse."

  In that case, why did Sandora come back?

  Next are some heartfelt words. Xiaolan felt embarrassed to peek at other people's love letters. He quickly swept his gaze, and finally solidified on the signature of the letter.

  That's not Sandora.

  However, it is a name that I am very familiar with.

   Xiaolan gaped, staring at the same place.

  I have seen this name myself.

   and remembered the name.

   Emma.

  When the game just started, when it landed, there was an ID card in the briefcase on hand.

   Emma.

  This is my name.

   Xiaolan quickly opened the envelope and checked the postmark on it.

  Sure enough.

   is a letter half a month ago.

  This is not a love letter between Shandora and Mr. Morwen, but a letter between herself and Mr. Morwen!

  He is the seventh lover of Mr. Mor Wen after the departure of the first six wives.

  The seventh bride.

  Xiaolan quickly accepted this setting, but shortly afterwards, the problem appeared.

  Since the relationship between the two is like this, why does Mr. Morwen come to the castle as a tutor by himself?

Is    concealing others?

  Is it because you are worried that the evil forces in the castle will kill you?

  Xiaolan put the letter into the placket, and continued to check other letters.

  In the past six months, I have successively sent many love letters to Mr. Morwen. It seems that they have been together for a long time, but the others in the castle seem to be unaware of this matter.

   Xiaolan grabbed the next letter.

  When the envelope came into view, Xiaolan's heart jumped for joy.

   finally found it, this is the letter that Shandora received.

  The content of the letter is exactly the same as what Xiaolan saw.

  This letter does not look weird from the outside, whether it is the postmark, address or the contents of the envelope, it is no different from a normal letter.

   Xiaolan turned over the letter paper.

and many more.

  On the back of the letter paper, there is a black ink stain.

   is in the upper right corner on the back of the letter.

  The appointment letter I received also has such ink marks.

  Is this Mr. Morwen's mark?

   Xiaolan also took this letter into his arms and picked up the next one.

   "Dear brother..."

  This is the letter Sandora wrote to Dr. Suwan!

   Xiaolan looked at the trembling brushstrokes and the tear-stained paper, there was fear and hope between the sentences...

  This letter was not sent out at all.

  And the reply Shandora received, of course, was not written to her by Dr. Suwan.

   is someone in this manor, forged by someone in this castle.

The letter after    is nothing unusual.

   Xiaolan picked up these three letters, and was about to walk out of the study, but his eyes lingered on the last row of bookcases.

  There is no label on the side of the last row of bookcases.

   Xiaolan walked to the bookshelf.

  On the large bookshelf, there are only a few large books with a thin gilded cover, which are fixed in the center of the bookshelf by the sapphire book stands in the shape of flowers on both sides.

   Xiaolan first took a look at the shape of the flower.

   is a tulip.

After   , she pulled out the thickest one and opened the cover.

  《Mowen Family History Book》

   is the genealogy of Mr. Morwen.

  The first page is a black and white photo of a woman in a complicated long dress.

  This woman is about forty years old, her face is serious, her lips are tight, maybe because the photo is too old, the quality of the picture is very blurred, and the female pupils look too dark.

  The dim light was beating on the yellowed paper, Xiaolan looked at the woman's eyes, feeling that she was inexplicably cold behind her back.

  It seems that the sense of voyeurism that has always been felt has finally found its source.

  She hurriedly moved her gaze to the text below the photo.

  "Lily Morwen, the first generation owner of Morwen Manor..."
