Chapter 006: Would you like a cup of coffee

As the girl entered, Suru was the first to greet her

Sulu

It is evident that both Beatrice and I have been deceived into coming here

After completing all of this, the black shadow detached itself from the shadows of the two individuals and slipped out through the gap in the window

Moreover, the dining knife that was plunged into Beatrice's heart bears my fingerprints!

The countless waiters in the café can all testify that they were with Beatrice at the time of her death! I am the prime suspect!

A gentle breeze blows in through the small window, and the door to the private room closes silently

Blood gushed forth, Beatrice's face turned pale, yet she remained motionless, her pupils gradually filled with despair, ultimately becoming vacant.

All evidence, including witnesses and physical evidence, is present. I want to die, I want to die, I want to die! Is it still possible to find a lawyer now

Destroying the body and erasing evidence? That could be a solution. If the body cannot be found, a homicide case would turn into a missing person case, which could buy a lot of time. But how to destroy the body?

It must be acknowledged that Beatrice is truly beautiful, with emerald green eyes, long hair as soft as a waterfall, delicate and exquisite features, skin as fair and smooth as milk, and a figure that perfectly conforms to the golden ratio

And that behind-the-scenes manipulator will clearly not relent, as there must be a series of conspiracies awaiting me

After all, judging from the situation just now, I had no power to fight back at all. If someone who holds a grudge against me were to strike again, I would surely be doomed.

Beatrice's playful smile abruptly ceased, transforming into fear. What did she see?

The proud young girl, Suru thought to himself, now had no lingering thoughts of romance; on the contrary, the unease in his heart grew ever stronger

Sulu inwardly despised himself fiercely, yet he had to admit that most men are visual creatures

Hmm?

Sulu's body instantly stiffened; although his mind was still able to think, he was unable to make any movements.

After the complaints, Sulu immediately realized the seriousness of the situation

Beatrice is dead, having succumbed to a single fatal blow. It has been a while since then, with blood flowing everywhere, and there was no time for rescue.

Becoming a murderer right after graduation? This is certainly not a good development

He picked up a small knife, cut his own finger, and glanced at Beatrice's lifeless body, drawing a pentagram on her.

If it were so easy to destroy evidence, there wouldn't be so many cases of body disposal, and in the end, the perpetrators would not be brought to justice

Hoo Hoo

However, at this moment, Beatrice frowned, her face displaying a proud expression: "Speak... Why have you summoned me here?"

At the moment when Suru slightly rose.

However, the murderer did not leave behind any good intentions; it was merely to make himself take the blame.

The moon, in the realm of extraordinary symbolism, represents the feminine aspect and is associated with death and darkness. Many magical creatures prefer to venture out for hunting during the full moon, which is a part of the knowledge concerning demon hunting

By using this skill, a female corpse can be transformed into a corpse princess. Although it may be somewhat self-deceptive, it is certainly better than becoming a murderer oneself

After some thought, Surula drew the curtains, locked the door, and fixed her gaze on the skill in the attributes panel: [Necromancer Creation LV1]

Surul has never studied astrology and can only act haphazardly.

Surulu could move, but he did not know what to do. He looked at the female corpse lying in front of him, his expression unchanged: "Miss... would you like a cup of coffee?"

He sensed something amiss, and a faint unease arose in his heart

Surrounded by pools of blood and corpses, Suru began to contemplate the aftermath.

Puff

It is even more unsettling

Should he explain to others that a mass of black shadow controlled him and killed Beatrice? Someone would have to believe it!

Beatrice on the opposite side was the same, her expression frozen in fear, her eyes filled with a pleading look, resembling a silent sculpture, imbued with a sense of absurdity

The pentagram holds a prominent position in the realm of the extraordinary in this world, symbolizing the mysteries of death and the underworld

Hoo Hoo Hoo

Suddenly, his hand rose uncontrollably, grasping the Western-style knife on the dining table, and thrusting it forcefully.

Sulu silently told himself that he already had the impulse to get up and flee

Surulu frowned and said: "Wasn't it you who invited me?"

After all, there is nothing worse than this, is there

In order to achieve a complete and thorough cleansing, Suru must first find a specialized high-temperature cremation furnace, which is fundamentally impossible

The wind grows stronger

A chill breeze spreads in from outside through the window

I can't move anymore

However, he had a sudden inspiration and directed the focus of the ceremony towards the moon in the sky

The materials required for the creation of a corpse bride are only two: one is a fresh female corpse, and the other is the blood of the practitioner

I am very sorry, but I am the primary suspect myself

If I were to go on the run, not only would my efforts be in vain, but I might not even be able to escape, after all, I am just an ordinary person! Should I seek help from my family? That is indeed one option, but time is running out...

To be honest, regardless of the success rate of this rudimentary skill, even if it is successful, the subsequent complications are quite troublesome

According to the ritual, at the moment the spell is completed, all blood will be reclaimed, at least allowing for the erasure of the current 'first murder scene.' As for what comes next? Suru can no longer afford to think about that.

He took a deep breath and, according to the knowledge of black magic, prepared to begin drawing the magic circle

He approached the window, observed the outside world, and found no signs of disturbance; the murderer may have already left

The black shadow ... ... extraordinary power! Is there an extraordinary being who has a grudge against Beatrice, or is it directed at me? Suru forced himself to calm down, feeling that it was more likely that Beatrice was attracting the fire.

Then... is there only one last choice left? To turn the dead into 'living'! Sulu thought expressionlessly: 'As long as no one dies, it cannot be considered murder'

Hoo Hoo

... ...

Due to the presence of a fence outside the window, it is impossible for anyone to pass through, thus this is a locked-room murder case

After being controlled by the shadow, his arm seemed to gain terrifying strength, and this strike was powerful, hitting Beatrice squarely in the chest

At this moment, Suru could not muster a single laugh.

It must be said that as a time traveler, he possesses a great heart, and at this moment, he can still think clearly: "The option of calling the police is to be ruled out first; I cannot explain it at all. Entrusting my fate to others is a very foolish course of action"

Beatrice's expression softened slightly as she sat opposite Suru, a hint of playful amusement curling at the corners of her mouth: "Never mind... Tell me, what surprise have you prepared for me tonight?"

Beatrice's attractive nose was slightly raised: "I have told you before, it is impossible between us! Do not play such clumsy tricks in front of me."

At the very least, seeing a beautiful woman is truly pleasing to the eye

His time is running out

Hello, Beatrice

According to the guidance on the pages of black magic, aligning the points of the pentagram with the positions of the dark constellations in the sky will increase the success rate of the practitioner

A swirling shadow, as if possessing its own life, surged in through the window, intertwining with the shadows of the two figures dancing in the flickering candlelight, clinging to them.

She has died
