Greetings, Mister Principal: Black Shadow

"So, Mr. Sophinet, can you explain what is going on?"

After ignoring the screams of the girls and the ensuing series of troubles, Reiner had already put on his shirt and trousers and sat on the sofa in the restaurant, opposite the innocent-looking man The Sofitel, of course, is menswear. ◢Suimeng◢小＊说Щщш.suimeng.lā

The girls all returned to the room. After all the trouble just now, they were even more tired.

One side of the wall of the hot spring bath was shattered by Dana's explosive magic, and now it truly became an open-air mixed bathing bath for men and women, but Reiner was no longer in the mood to enjoy it.

"What is that black shadow? Is it a peeping person?"

Reiner asked, looking directly at Sophinet.

"Uh, well, Mr. Ian Gray, do you remember that I said that I also had my own considerations?"

Sofinet pondered the words and asked.

"This is the black shadow I'm talking about."

"Have you known about the existence of this thing before?"

Reiner became even more confused.

"I feel a little ashamed to say that about a month ago, I learned from the servant that something magical seemed to have appeared on the beach near this villa."

Sofinet explained.

"It seems a little inconsistent to say it is something, but it doesn't look like a living thing. Well, if I use some words that would make you laugh at Mr. Ian Gray to describe it, well, it should be a ghost. This is this black The truth about shadows."

"Ghost?"

Reiner was really surprised.

Although the magic in this world has the necromantic system, the research on the so-called soul is not in-depth. In fact, until today, the concept of soul has not been separated from the heart lake, let alone what is left in the world after death. ghost.

Several famous haunted incidents in history were ultimately proven to be illusions created by magic props. No mage has ever encountered a real dead soul.

The Alchemy Department proved that people cannot be resurrected after death, while the Necromancy Department also encountered setbacks in the research of the soul.

The so-called alchemical life is an artificial object that can only act mechanically according to the coping functions left at the time of production. It is impossible to have a soul.

So, talking about ghosts in the world of mages is just like talking about gods, which is a bit ridiculous.

"Yes, this villa used to be very quiet with only servants there on weekdays. But recently, the servant responsible for keeping watch often saw a shadow wandering in the woods outside the villa, but when he lit a lamp to check, he couldn't find anything. Less than."

Soffinet said with lingering fear.

"At first, we thought it was a thief, but we spent money to set up a security circle near the villa. When the shadow appeared, no sign of anyone was detected. This is the strangest thing."

"So, after reading my letter, do you want us to investigate this black shadow for you?"

Reiner suddenly realized that, indeed, there is no free lunch in this world.

"Yeah, right."

Sofinet nodded slightly, and then immediately added.

"But please don't worry, although the black shadow appeared, nothing was lost in the mansion, and no one was injured. My servants have lived here for a long time, so I think this black shadow should not What strange things will they do to people?"

Isn't it a strange thing to spy on a girl taking a bath? Reiner felt ashamed, but the existence of this dark shadow did arouse his curiosity.

During the commotion just now, he did not directly see the black figure, but Reiner did not feel any obvious traces of magic. If Sophinet said it was true, the detection magic around the villa did not sense other humans. traces, then either Heiying's magical attainments are quite high and he can find a way to avoid detection magic, or it is due to other special physiques.

As for ghosts, Reiner didn't really believe it and only regarded it as a relatively impossible explanation.

"Well, it's getting late today. Tomorrow, I will investigate near the villa. As for the girls, let them go to the beach to play for a while."

Reiner nodded and stood up. At this time, Sophie was like a child who had made a mistake, sitting obediently on the sofa and not daring to move.

"Mr. Sophinet, please go back to your room and rest early."

After hearing Reiner's words, Sophinet nodded slowly, thoughtfully.

Except for the commotion in the hot spring, the night was uneventful. Early the next morning, Reiner changed into refreshing beach shorts and came to the lobby.

Qiao is already waiting here. This is Reiner's request to let Qiao, the butler who is most familiar with this place, accompany him in his investigation.

As for Sophie Nite, Reiner asked him to take a few girls to his private beach to play. Otherwise, keeping him by his side always felt like it would reduce the efficiency of the investigation.

"First ask who has seen the shadow before."

Liner said, Qiao nodded, and then took Liner to a reception room.

There were already several servants sitting in the reception room. They were both men and women, and they looked a little uneasy. When they saw Qiao coming in, they felt a little relieved.

"These are all servants who have seen the shadow before. I summoned them in advance. Mr. Iain Gray, you can ask at will."

Qiao said, then stood aside.

Reiner looked at these people and started asking questions from the person on the far left. This was a maid, about mid-twenty years old.

"When did you see that black shadow, and what were its characteristics?"

He asked straight to the point. Reiner took out a quill and notebook from his storage bag, waved his hand gently, and the notebook levitated in the air, and the quill automatically recorded the conversation.

This surprised the maid, but she quickly adjusted her mood and spoke.

"A week ago, after cleaning the bathhouse at night, when I was packing my things to go back ~IndoMTL.com~ I suddenly saw a black shadow in the corner. I was startled and hurriedly looked for someone else. But when I returned to the bathing place, the black shadow had disappeared."

She spoke intermittently, obviously reminiscing and organizing the language at the same time. The education level of these servants was not high. They only received certain reading and writing training when they entered Sophinet's house, and they could recognize Say your name and some commonly used sentences.

According to Sophinet, these servants can also learn to read and write according to their own will. Those like Joe who are successful in self-taught can easily be promoted and eventually become the steward of a mansion.

"In the evening, is it a bath again?"

Reiner glanced at the records in his notebook and thought to himself.

"Sir, actually, there are some speculations among us about that black shadow."

At this time, an older servant said, making Reiner raise his head.

"Guess? Tell me."
