Anna jumped out of the window and followed the path to the back of the Hanged Hotel. She took out a small pink panther-patterned umbrella and put it on herself, and came to a small courtyard.

It is surrounded by wooden fences and is very quiet. There is a wood behind the fence. The fence is not high, and children can easily turn over it.

Where did Dot step on the wet mud? Anna climbed on the fence and could clearly see some messy footprints in the mud leading to the woods, but unfortunately, they had been damaged by the rain and mixed into one It is difficult to provide some clues for solving the case, but Anna guessed that there are Mr. Dot’s footprints.

Dort did see someone here before he died, secretly, he didn’t want to be found.

Anna jumped off the fence and came to the side of the hotel house, where there was a window that was broken from the inside, and shards of glass fell outside on the old tree stump under the window.

There were firewood scattered around the old stump, some rusted axes were left on the stump, and a little black… lace was hooked on the nails that came out.

Anna, who was wearing dragon leather gloves, pulled out the axe with one hand. She carefully looked at the things hanging on the iron nails. The lace was very clean, and it didn’t look like it had been hanging on the axe for a long time. Maybe it belonged to someone recently. —Maybe today, the woman who came here with lace on her body…

Oh, sorry, mind set, maybe some man who came here with a lace thing on him, maybe Mr. Dott wiped his nose with a lace handkerchief while chopping wood? ‘No,’ Anna denied herself, ‘that was too strange. ‘

Anna put the axe back in place, thought about it, and picked it up again. Since she can’t use magic at will, she still has to bring something to protect herself. She looked around, and then put the axe into the blue flowery cloth bag.

[Self-defense weapon acquisition: rusty axe decorated with lace]

After putting away the axe, an old wooden door attracted Anna’s attention. It was not conspicuous. It was hidden among the wood piled up against the wall. There were many wooden barrels in front of it, but it did not affect the normal opening of the door. Dirty ladder up.

‘Or a lot of Mr. Te came out of this door,’ Anna tried to turn the door handle, but couldn’t open it. It seemed to be locked, and it was locked from the inside, because there were no interlocking holes on the outside.

With the axe I just got, I can barely break it open, but it is a little reckless to do so without knowing what is inside, and it does not fit the image of my little fairy.

Anna turned around and suddenly noticed a strange object in the corner of the yard – a well, a well covered with wooden boards. Anna opened the wooden boards and found that the well was not deep and there were many scratches on the walls of the well. , took a closer look and found that the stains were the same as those stuck on the ladder of the barrel by the door – someone had used a ladder to go down a well.

Interesting, there might be something in the well, Anna was a little excited, but she didn’t want to go down because it was so dirty inside.

“This way! Quick! Haier! That person should be running this way!” Officer Harvey’s shout came from the side of the hotel. Anna was about to leave when she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and threw the ladder on the wooden barrel into it. In the well, covered with wooden boards, poured a few kegs by the well, faked a scene of panic and then hid.

“He ran into the well!” Haier ran out after Harvey, panting from exhaustion. He noticed the chaos in the yard at a glance, and accurately focused on the strange well.

“Damn it!” Harvey moved the board away and saw the wooden ladder inside, “He should still be inside, Haier, you are guarding outside, I’ll go down and catch him!” Harvey took the small pistol in his hand, Step into the well.

“Yes…” Haier looked around nervously, “Officer Harvey… Should I go and find support…”

“Hold the well first! Don’t walk around casually, we don’t know if he has any accomplices…” Harvey frowned, his raincoat was stained with stains, but he also reached the bottom of the well.

This well has been abandoned for a long time. It has an unpleasant damp smell. The space below is small, probably a little bigger than the public toilet. There is no place to hide people. Harvey put the flashlight in his mouth, Holding a gun in one hand, he groped on the wall of the well in the other, hoping to find a mechanism or something.

But no, it seems that this is an ordinary dry well. Harvey took off the flashlight in his mouth and sighed, “Haier!” He shouted at Inoue, “There is nothing here! We are being played!”

Haier didn’t answer, and Inoue didn’t say anything, “Haier?” Harvey looked at the round sky above his head and felt like an angry and helpless little frog for a while.

“**,” Harvey cursed, realizing that something was wrong, and he hurried up the wooden ladder.

Just before the exit, the light in front of him disappeared, and someone covered the well with a wooden board, “Dong dong!” Harvey tapped the wooden board hard, but it didn’t work. Someone blocked the wooden board with something.

“Haier? Haier are you there?!**!” Harvey scolded a few loudly, then calmed down, because no sound could be heard outside, he had to maintain his strength and wait for rescue.

He returned to the bottom of the well, with a vague idea in his head that he could lift such a heavy object to block the exit, and even control Haier… This man should be a strong muscular man…

Harvey took out the walkie-talkie and called a few times, waiting for the other party’s response. He tapped the wall of the well impatiently, and suddenly heard a different sound from behind a stone.

Harvey frowned and knocked again, making sure there was something behind the rock, which was a pleasant surprise.

He pulled out the stone and got a book wrapped in a plastic bag, dark brown, with a dirty cover. It may have been frequently flipped through, and the book looked a little wrinkled.

‘Secret’, the word was written in black ink on the cover of the book, which belonged to Mr. Dort, the deceased, Harvey read with difficulty by the light of a flashlight, and on the first page of the book it said ‘…I got it from my father He inherited this tavern from his hand, and he told me lying on the hospital bed that he named me Dot because my grandfather was also called Dot, a great businessman, and my father wanted me to be equally great…’

‘… But in fact, my father, who has been living with my grandmother since the age of six, doesn’t know the real grandfather, who is short-tempered and a scumbag. I have learned a lot…’

‘…like controlling a person through secrets – how do you know someone else’s secrets? Old Dort carved me with shards of glass, wine, and something born out of fire, he called it a devil egg…’

‘… The powder of the devil’s egg is paired with wine, and those who drink it will only tell the truth. Old Dort said that it is a precious treasure given by the devil. The reason why the Hanged Ghost Tavern is called the Hanged Ghost Tavern is because there used to be many People hang themselves because grandfathers catch their little dark secrets…’

Dott’s words are not good-looking. Officer Harvey has to work very hard to read them clearly. He thinks that Dott and his grandfather are crazy. How could there be such a thing that will only make people tell the truth?

‘…Secrets, I like secrets, and most people in town have secrets, that makes me so excited, UU reading www. uukanshu.com Mayor Gray has secrets, Penny has secrets, Frank Bryce has secrets, and the Doctor has secrets, and I can’t say I know those secrets…’

‘…because the secret has to be hidden, that’s what it’s called a secret…”

Harvey sighed, and sucked a large amount of the damp moldy gas from the bottom of the well into his lungs. He coughed. It’s good. All the people who were known by Dott became suspects. Harvey frowned and looked at his hands. The ‘Book of Secrets’, which he didn’t want to know at all.

Because the villains in TV shows always say, “You know too much.”

“Is there anyone in the well?” Harvey coughed, and suddenly heard the voice of a little girl outside the well, her voice trembling, “Is it the fairy who lives in the well?”

Why do fairies live in wells? Harvey shouted with joy, “I’m Officer Harvey! Boy! Find someone to let me out!”
