Chapter 126: Misty Town (3) Perfect Mask

With the highly respected and powerful Pastor Colwin personally escorting them, Mrs. Louise and Mrs. Lulang were extremely happy and confidently handed Yan Jinyue over to him.

“Thank you so much. Little Audrey will be safe under your protection.” Mrs. Louise thanked Colwin profusely before reluctantly leaving with Mrs. Ruland.

The rest of the townspeople who came with them to catch the devil had left early, leaving only a few strong men to move Colwin’s bed to the room on the second floor.

The room on the second floor was originally Audrey’s parents’ room, but it was converted into a study after they passed away. If Colwin wanted to live here, he had to move another bed in temporarily.

When everything was ready, these people left, leaving only Yan Jinyue and Pastor Colwin in the house.

Colwin closed the door, turned and walked towards her, smiling, “Miss Audrey, I’m on the second floor. If you need anything, just call me.”

“Thank you so much for your help.” Yan Jinyue smiled back and looked at him calmly.

He has a gentle and peaceful temperament, and always has a faint smile on his lips, giving people a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze. When you are looked at by his light gray eyes, you will involuntarily trust him and preconceivedly think that he is a very good, gentle and kind person.

This is really… too weird!
It’s like being born with a perfect mask that makes people trust it, but once you realize it, it’s creepy.

Yan Jinyue had thought that he was a fragment of her lover. Although he had a standard Western appearance with thick eyebrows and deep eyes, there were traces of familiarity between his eyebrows and eyes.

But she was a little puzzled. The fragments of her lover in the copy were only ghosts. She originally guessed it was a devil, but now a priest appeared.

Could it be that the devil and the priest are two separate entities?

This was what she thought was the most likely scenario, but to be sure, she had to wait for the devil to appear.

When she thought of this, Yan Jinyue felt ashamed and angry. He hid in the dark without even showing his face, but he bullied her. He really lived up to his setting as a devil. He really had a strong taste for evil.

This pastor…

Yan Jinyue was somewhat curious whether he was a gentleman who looked and felt consistent, or a reserved person. He took the initiative to suggest staying here with her. Was it just a business matter, or did he have other motives?

She decided to give it a try.

“Reverend Colwin, what if the devil sneaks into my room at night when you are not paying attention, and I fall asleep and don’t know anything?” She pretended to be very scared, trembling, and looked at him pitifully with watery eyes.

She approached quietly, until her whole body was almost pressed against his arm.

The thin and slender girl was wearing a loose black robe with a loose neckline. Due to her movements, the neckline fell even wider, exposing a large area of ​​dazzling white skin. Her shoulders were round, her collarbones were thin, and the mountain line seemed to appear and disappear, extending into the collar.

Blatant seduction.

The man seemed to have seen nothing, his expression was still calm and gentle, his eyes were calm. He took out a small golden bell from his pocket and said:
“Miss Audrey, don’t be afraid. I will put a bell at the head of your bed. It will sense the devil’s breath and wake you up. I can feel it here too.”

Yan Jinyue glanced at the little bell, then looked at the man in front of her who was indifferent to her seduction, and curled her lips.

Who wants a bell hanging on the bedside? What she wants is him lying next to her.

However, she knew that she couldn’t be so straightforward. Just a brief flirtation would be enough to test the waters. She had to proceed step by step.

She took it with joy, “Thank you, Reverend Colwin.”

“You’re welcome. This is my duty.” The man smiled. “Miss Audrey, it’s getting late. You can go back and rest first.”

Are you starting to chase her away now?

Yan Jinyue was a little confused. She maintained her bright smile and tried to find a topic to talk about. “Okay, Reverend Colwin, but you can just call me Audrey. Don’t be so distant.”

“Okay, Audrey, you can call me Colwin too. See you tomorrow.”

“Okay, see you tomorrow.” After a dull and boring conversation, Colwin turned around, walked into the room and closed the door mercilessly.

After being turned away, Yan Jinyue had no choice but to go upstairs embarrassedly, but she walked slowly and looked back every few steps, wanting to see if the door would be opened secretly.

But unfortunately, the door showed no sign of opening, and it was obvious that the man was determined.

She snorted coldly, ran upstairs quickly, and slammed the door with great force, with a bang.

When I was lying on the bed to go to sleep, I realized I was still wearing the black robe that came from nowhere.

She turned around in front of the dressing mirror and realized that the suit she was wearing was the same monk’s robe as Colwin’s.

So, it wasn’t the devil who controlled her to put on this suit to prevent her from running naked in front of everyone, but Korwin?
Since he cared about her, why did he act so cold and avoid her just now?
Full of doubts, Yan Jinyue spread out her right hand and looked at the small golden bell in her palm. Finally, she compromised and hung it on the head of the bed. She took off her robe, changed into the cotton nightgown she had worn at the beginning, and turned off the light to sleep.

There is no rush. Today is only the first day and there is still a long time. All her doubts will be answered in the future.

If Colwin is the fragment of her lover, it will definitely reveal traces, and the demon who teased her will definitely appear as well.

**
Yan Jinyue was awakened by the sunlight. The curtains embroidered with fresh patterns were not drawn tightly, leaving a gap, and the sunlight hit her eyes.

She rubbed her eyes, sat up, and lay in bed in a daze for a long time before getting up to wash.

When she passed by the second floor, she knocked on the door skillfully. When she got no response, she knew that Colwin had gone out to perform rituals again… No, he was going to spread love and care to the poor and sick people, and to treat some people.

This was his daily routine, going out early in the morning and coming back late at night. Unless she went to bed late on purpose, she would run into him and there would be no chance for them to hook up.

Not only that, the devil never appeared again after the first night it bullied her, and there were no reports of devil attacks anywhere else, as if it had disappeared without a trace.

Yan Jinyue couldn’t help but wonder, could it be that the devil was really seriously injured by Korwin and couldn’t come out?
One lover disappeared without a trace, and the other went out early and came back late. Yan Jinyue was too lazy to muster any energy and just focused on enjoying herself.

Unlike the previous copy, this copy is very relaxing and there is no harassment from other ghosts. She does not need to escape from the fire or go to work. She just needs to spend her days leisurely in this small villa.

The source of her living expenses is a large inheritance left by her wealthy parents who have gone to heaven. According to the prices in the small town, this inheritance is enough for her to live on for several lifetimes. She truly deserves to be the richest family in the town.

And this is not the most exaggerated thing. What is more exaggerated is that she doesn’t even have to cook. Every day, Mrs. Louise and Mrs. Rulang, or other ladies will bring her meals, desserts and snacks.

Apart from missing Chinese food a bit, her life could be said to be very comfortable. For a moment, she almost forgot that she was Yan Jinyue and that she was in a copy. She completely thought of herself as Audrey Griffith.

“Audrey, good morning. Come and try some fresh strawberries.”

At the morning market, when she was walking past a fruit stall, Mrs. Richard, with red hair and freckles, enthusiastically handed her big, bright red strawberries.

“Okay.” She agreed happily, took a strawberry and took a bite, the sweet juice burst out in her mouth, and she squinted her eyes in satisfaction.

“Like it?”

“I like it!” She nodded, picked up a small basket of strawberries, and despite Mrs. Richard’s repeated refusal, she forced the money into her hands, not giving her any chance to take it back, and ran away with the strawberries.

She trotted home, washed the strawberries, arranged them on a plate, and then curled up on the sofa to enjoy them.

Just as she was immersed in it, there was a sudden buzzing in her ears. She hugged her head in pain, and the porcelain plate in her hand slipped to the ground and broke into pieces, and the strawberries rolled away.

She fell off the sofa uncontrollably, her body pressed on the broken porcelain and strawberries. The blood and the juice squeezed out of the strawberries blended together, all bright red and indistinguishable from each other.

Yan Jinyue’s eyes rolled up in pain and she fainted completely.

After thinking about it, if you want excitement, you must…
