Chapter 13 New Last Will and Testament, Under the Flowers and Moon?
Chapter 13 New Last Will and Testament, Under the Flowers and Moon?
Since Tia wasn't afraid of the mutant corpses, Su Lan arranged for her to clean up the mess while she returned to her bedroom.
Upon opening the box containing the belongings, as usual, three pages of paper were found inside.
He leaned back in his chair and picked up the first page.
My name is Su Lan, and I just died a few days ago.
I was born into a family of free citizens in the royal city. Because I was outstanding from a young age, I successfully infiltrated the court and became a trainee judge.
This is a secure job; all the guys and girls working there are talented and have a pleasant way of speaking.
I thought I could enjoy my retirement here early, until I peeked...
Oh no, I mean I caught Kahn taking a shower.
Su Lan blinked: "Peeping at Kahn? Taking a shower?!"
Kahn isn't a man's name, he doesn't have that kind of fetish!
Su Lan immediately distanced herself from "trainee judge Su Lan".
However, this guy was quite good at breaking the chapter; his interest was piqued, and he couldn't wait to turn the page.
On my way to complete my promotion mission, I stumbled upon Kahn's blood sacrifice ritual!
He is a follower of the Church of the Moon Goddess!
What a shoddy operation! The tribunal that hunts down cults has actually been infiltrated by them.
Since you received my will, you must have already encountered Kahn or the Church of the Moon?
Oh dear, that's really unfortunate.
This church is good at cursing, it's disgusting. I died from "Moon Madness", it was awful.
If you don't have a solution, I suggest you pack and ship the goods yourself as soon as possible; at least you'll save face.
"Moon's Madness..."
A flash of inspiration struck Su Lan.
He wondered how they had managed to so easily lure out the magistrate's informant.
It turns out Luca was cursed!
Recalling Luca's gruesome death, Su Lan felt a headache coming on.
He's not particularly afraid if the other party is straightforward.
With the Tia brand early warning radar and protection, plus the underground passage for hiding, safety is relatively guaranteed.
But when it comes to underhanded tactics, he doesn't have many good options.
If the pollution concentration in the house is high enough, it can be used to fight fire with fire, making it difficult for the other party to approach.
But Su Lan can't stay home forever, can she?
It's not the theft itself that's scary, it's the thief's eye on you. We really need to find a solution to this as soon as possible.
Su Lan turned to the last page.
Let's first see what kind of legacy trainee judge Su Lan left behind.
If all else fails, try asking Seraya for help before she leaves.
Sometimes I think, if I could stay in a flower field and have a beautiful dream that I don't want to wake up from, maybe I wouldn't have mutated?
After all, optimistic people are usually lucky!
I really want to have a romantic picnic in a flower field with a high-quality female companion, and then get completely drunk!
In this way, you can plant an acre of spider lilies for me, and then on the night of the red moon, invite your female companions to drink and sing together, and I will give you my inheritance.
I've prepared the wine and the lyrics for you, I guarantee you'll be able to impress everyone!
Wouldn't it be a wonderful thing if it could solve our single status?
They didn't mention the Church of the Moon Goddess or the Inquisition at all, and suddenly they went off to indulge in romance and pleasure!
Lycoris radiata is also known as the spider lily or the red spider flower in some places. When planted, it grows into a beautiful red patch.
However, it needs to be planted in a sunny, good place.
Placed amidst the mist of Black Reef Fjord, it can only be described as incredibly down-to-earth.
His last wish didn't seem difficult, and it sounded very much like something a man who had been single for two lifetimes would say—very poignant and depressing.
But Su Lan had a strange feeling that she couldn't quite put her finger on...
There's definitely a trap here!
It's that time of year again when the red spider lilies bloom and monsters are active, especially on nights with a deep red moon...
How could he not understand himself?
The more riddle-like someone is, the more likely there's something fishy going on!
No!
We need to carefully study the subtext in the suicide note!
As usual, I put the will into my mind, and sure enough, a new wish emerged.
[Received the last wish:]
1. Plant one acre of Lycoris radiata and wait for it to flower;
2. On a moonlit night, amidst a cluster of spider lilies, invite a high-quality female companion for drinks and song (low-quality companions are acceptable, but you'll bear the consequences).
[I have obtained 1 bottle of "Special Sleeping Wine" and 2 "Toasts". They can be taken out after the Lycoris radiata blooms;]
You have obtained 3 bottles of "Intermediate Anti-Curse Potion" and 1 copy of "Judge's Training Manual (Five-Year Experience Edition)," which can be retrieved after completing the invitation.
"Is this sleeping pill of yours even legitimate?" Su Lan rolled her eyes.
Looking at the drinks alone or the invitation alone wouldn't be a big deal, but when the two are combined...
Is he trying to drug someone?
Su Lan even suspected that she might have some hidden trait that allowed her to "awaken to become a great magician once she was no longer single."
Another change also caught his attention.
The method of withdrawing the inheritance this time is somewhat different from that of "Su Lan running away" last time.
Last time it was a random selection, but this time the "trainee judges" are assigned in a fixed order.
Then the approach becomes clear.
First find the Lycoris radiata, then cultivate the crops to encourage growth, and finally complete the invitation...
Su Lan really wanted these two legacies: one could save her life, and the other could be used to train troops.
His eyes gradually became vacant.
Speaking of which, would you say Tia is a high-quality female companion?
……
After cleaning up the mess, Tia pushed open Su Lan's door and saw Su Lan sitting sideways at her desk, staring blankly out the window.
"Su Lan, what are you looking at?"
Curious, she leaned closer, her head blocking Su Lan's view, and followed Su Lan's gaze.
"The stars...the moon...they're not that interesting. The moon looks a bit red?"
Tia turned her head and met Su Lan's eyes at close range.
She blinked, and her ears turned red at a visible speed.
"Cough cough!" Tia suddenly took a small step back, her eyes darting around.
Two seconds later, she found something to ease the awkwardness!
"Su...Su Lanlan, what are you drawing on the paper? Flowers and a code?"
"I was just about to ask you, do you recognize this flower?"
Su Lan found it amusing but didn't make things difficult for Tia, handing her the draft paper instead.
There were several Lycoris flowers drawn on the paper, and the "code" was Chinese characters he had written.
Chinese characters are inherently encrypted in this world, making them perfect for note-taking.
Tia examined it carefully, then held the tail she had just caught in her arms, lost in thought:
"This flower looks so strange; it doesn't even have leaves. I feel like I've seen it somewhere before?"
After a while, she hesitated and said, "When I was little, I think I saw it by a small river... If I remember correctly, there were many mutant corpses there."
"I'll go check with Sister Seraya tomorrow. She's leaving in the next couple of days, so I'll go say goodbye while I'm at it."
Having made up her mind, Tia stopped hesitating.
"Su Lan, an hour's up. Are we still going fishing?"
Su Lan shook her head: "We've caught all the small fish, and the big fish aren't taking the bait easily. They might even hurt us. Let me think about it carefully..."
"Then Su Lan, take your time thinking about it. I'm going to dig a hole!"
Tia, however, was full of energy and skipped and hopped downstairs.
"Why don't you dig somewhere to the west when you have time!"
Su Lan called out, lay back on the bed, and pondered Tia's words.
Lycoris radiata prefers sunny and moist conditions and requires soil rich in humus, which matches Tia's description.
Therefore, Lycoris radiata is very likely not a species fabricated out of thin air in the suicide note.
As a member of the tribunal, "Trainee Judge Su Lan" cannot easily leave the kingdom, which means...
You can find this flower in the kingdom!
If you can't find it at Seraya's place, perhaps you could explore the territory of Viscount Sean next door!
