Chapter 102: There Is Always One Truth!
(TN: The title is a Detective Conan reference)
What’s going on?
Wandering Child was startled
He reached out and touched it again, only to find that everything was normal with his left eye It was still ware!
It’s just like having the two states switch back and forth from ti within this world?
Did Elle’s face also become a skull face similar to that of painter Amos just now?
“Elle, can you hearChild heard Amos’s call He turned around subconsciously
A skeleton was sitting on a chair next to Wandering Child, looking at him with concern
There was no flesh on its body except for the left eye and back of the neck
Its left eye was inlaid with a green eyeball There was a piece of skin the size of two palms on the back of the neck There was even so Child remembered clearly
Areen-eyed
In other words, this was Elle’s eyes and skin!
“How is your body doing?”
Skeleton slowly asked with a heavy, echoing voice, “Can you see it?”
Can you see it?
Why do you ask if I can see it?
Didn’t I tell you at the beginning that I had a headache?
Wandering Child keenly sensed so was amiss
“I…”
-Can
Wandering Child was about to answer like this
But when he was about to speak, he suddenly felt a trance
When he woke up again, he found that the skeleton had changed back to Areen
Wait, what happened?
Wandering Child suddenly realized so alright now”
(TN: Wandering Child altered his reply from I can see it (the skeleton) to this reply)
While Wandering Child answered slowly, he touched his eyes and back of his head, using the ingenious bluffing technique he had practiced in the exae and cold sensation again this time
Whether it was the eyeballs or the neck, they had turned cold Wandering Child even felt his sharp and protruding cervical spine
“I understand now A the streamer and his dad, oneto dis Child, how do you feel!? Are you alright!?” asked A fine, father”
Elle asked softly, “But, I feelwith ift from the Venerated Skeleton, Elle”
Until then, Amos finally revealed to Elle, “The Venerated Skeleton bestows my ‘God-bestowed paint’
“The Venerated Skeleton also bestows your healthy and powerful body His divine power is stored in your body Therefore, not only will you live healthily, but you will not get sick or age”
He chuckled and said, “Isn’t this a good thing? This is a benefit that the upright deity can’t give”
“Then, father”
“Elle” was silent for a while and asked seriously, “What is the price?”
“There is no price to be paid”
Amos replied without hesitation, “This is a one-way ritual to pray for blessing My transaction with the Venerated Skeleton has not officially started So you don’t need to pay any price He even proive ot in the past That’s enough fortime”
With no price to be paid? Do you believe it?
Elle’s face was filled with doubt
If you don’t have to pay anything, where are Elle’s left eye and the flesh at the back of the neck?
Since he asked me if I can see him clearly, that means he knew that my eyes had been stolen
But why did Amos think that I didn’t notice this? Did the Venerated Skeleton tell him that?
Annan stared at this scene, startled Then, he ed to pick up some clues “Wait a minute,” lamented Annan as the audience
If Annan wasn’t mistaken, it was possible that Amos didn’t kill Elle
Or it could be that Amos didn’t realize he had killed Elle!
In that newspaper froo, Elle’s body pieces were scattered all over each painting frame in the fors were displayed in the first three levels of the nightallery” alone
