Chapter 193: Fear Comes

Even though he was entangled by Shirley, Potter still kept his senses and agreed to Shirley's request without haphazardness, looking at Shirley and asking aloud, "What do you want me to promise you?"

"Hmm......" Shirley seemed to be thinking about it, and decided in a half-loud voice, "You're going to treat me to a big dinner when you go back to the academy." ”

That's it?, Potter was stunned.

"Why? you don't want to?" Shirley saw Potter's stunned expression, her face pulled up, and she said a little angrily, "I worked hard to help you keep vigil here, and you just teased me and didn't even invite me to a meal?"

"No, no, no. Potter finally reacted and hurriedly said, "I'll ask you." ”

"That's good. Shirley was satisfied, let go of Potter's shoulder, and waved her hand very generously, "You can go." ”

"Is it finally over?" Potter thought to himself, and the next moment he didn't hesitate, turned around and left, and just as he was about to go up the stairs, he heard Shirley shout, "Hey, Potter, be careful yourself!"

"Hm......" Potter was stunned, and wanted to respond to Shirley to be just as careful, but in the end he swallowed it raw.

"Let's talk to the other party next time, otherwise if you say it now, you may really not be able to leave. Potter thought to himself, "Women are really in trouble, demonic troubles, and women can't stop his progress on the wizarding path." ”

Shaking his head, Potter stepped up to the first deck below deck.

Potter knew that there was a male third-level wizard apprentice named Parker, who, like Shirley, was a student of Wizard Quinton. However, the other party's personality is very different from Shirley's, and he is the most withdrawn of all wizard apprentices. So, don't worry about the other party's entanglement.

With this in mind, Potter put his feet on the wooden floor of the hallway, and was about to ask how Parker was doing, and then go to the deck to check it out. But at a glance, seeing that the corridor of the cabin was empty, I couldn't help but be slightly stunned - Parker, who was supposed to be guarding the corridor, didn't know where he ran there, and he couldn't see anyone at all.

This!

Potter's eyes flashed, and thoughts raced through his head.

Did Parker leave his post without permission?

Perhaps, but extremely unlikely.

He knew very well that Parker might have a withdrawn personality, but he was more steady than he was when he picked up things. The other party is the oldest of all wizard apprentices, and due to his limited talent, he has not broken through in the level of third-level wizard apprentices, which has created the other party's withdrawn and uncommunicative character. But age naturally has an advantage, that is, to consider comprehensively, to do things reliably, according to reason, the other party will never leave his post without permission.

So where did the other party go?

Potter's eyes flickered, and the next moment he whispered tentatively, "Parker?"

The hallway was as quiet as a tomb, and there was no response.

Potter couldn't help but feel a little wary, looked around the hallway, and walked slowly forward.

As a result, from one end to the other, no Parker was seen, and no trace was seen in Parker's wake.

Well, what is it?

Potter's eyes flashed suddenly, and he saw a red dot on the ground, and when he bent down and reached out to touch it, it immediately stained his fingers.

That's - blood!

In an instant, Potter's expression became extremely solemn.

A drop of blood doesn't mean much, but it can also say a lot of things. At least it had already given him an extremely bad guess.

That......

"Breathe—breathe—"

Potter took a deep breath and the next moment he jerked around and ran down the stairs, ready to tell Shirley and Darnell below to be careful.

"Da Da Da ......"

Potter hurried down to the second deck and turned to look at the end of the hallway, where he knew Shirley was standing.

But the next moment, Potter froze in place.

As far as his eyes could see, there was nothing but a cloud of air.

Turning sharply, Potter looked at the other end of the hallway, and there was still nothing—there was no sign of Shirley in the entire hallway, and Shirley had disappeared without a trace.

"No, no, don't do this, don't do this......" Potter couldn't help whispering, his heart was agitated and panicked, and his brain was a little confused.

But soon, he forcibly calmed down: Parker from the top was gone, and it was possible that there was really something urgent to leave. And this layer of Shirley disappeared, probably to the third cabin. Yes, probably to the third cabin. After all, Shirley can't be idle, not as reliable as Parker, so she might go to the third cabin to chat with Darnell.

So......

With this in mind, Potter made his last shred of hope towards the third deck.

"Da Da Da!"

Potter quickly reached the third deck and swept away, clenching his fists.

The hallway of the third deck was still empty.

The corridor of the three-story cabin, the three wizard apprentices, it is impossible to disappear at the same time for no reason, this is not a coincidence, this is definitely not a coincidence!

Potter's face turned extremely ugly, and he walked briskly towards the end of the hallway, walking to the spot where he had seen Darnell before.

Bending down, Potter groped across the floor, trying to find a trace, but this time there was not even blood.

Potter stood up, his eyes sharpened, and he plucked a pendant from his neck and held a blood-colored gem on the pendant in his hand. The mana in his body was surging rapidly, and the whole person became extremely vigilant, ready to attack at any time.

But there is no enemy, or he he simply does not see the enemy.

Damn it!

Potter couldn't help but grit his teeth, and there was no way to vent the anger in his heart.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a "bang" in the cabin next to him, and a heavy object fell to the ground, as if someone was sleeping unsteadily and fell off the bed.

That......

Potter's eyes flashed, and he stepped forward and knocked the door.

"Bang bang! bang bang!"

After a while, the cabin door creaked open, and the black hole in the cabin couldn't see anything clearly, and a sleepy-eyed student poked his head out, squinting his eyes, as if he hadn't fully awakened, and asked, "Is there ...... Is there something going on?"

"I ......" Potter wanted to ask if he had heard anything in the cabin, but he stopped after only saying one word.

He suddenly realized that this was a very stupid move: according to the murderer's ability, he really did it, and he would never let anyone else hear it. He asked this, and it was absolutely impossible to get any valid information. And when he really asked, he undoubtedly told the students in front of him that something had happened to the wizard apprentice guarding the corridor, and he didn't know what it would be like among the ordinary students until dawn.

Thinking of this, taking a deep breath, Potter said with a stiff face, "It's nothing, just a reminder to be careful when you sleep at night." You also know that there is no peace on the giant ship, so if someone knocks on the door at night, don't open it casually, at least ...... Ask for the identity of the other party. ”

......The students inside the door looked at Potter with a strange expression.

"That's it, you go back to sleep. Potter said.

"Bang. The student inside the door simply closed the door, and Potter felt that the other party must have thought he was a psychopath. But Potter didn't care about these little things, holding the blood-colored gem in his hand, and walked quickly down the stairs towards the deck.

On the deck, there is also the apprentice of the wizard who is in charge of the vigil, and now he has to make sure that the other party is safe. Even if there is a high probability that the other person is also missing, it is always necessary to take a look.

With that in mind, Potter stepped onto the deck and froze.

In an instant, the hairs on Potter's body stood on end, his muscles tensed, his heart began to beat faster, and his eyes widened little by little as he looked at the scene in front of him.
