Chapter 362 Inside and Outside
As before, Shade put the puppet pistol on the painting, It really melted in the picture, and then appeared at the door of the model house.

The puppet associated with Shade walks up to the pistol, but does not bend down to pick it up. Mr. Freeman's puppet also looked towards the pistol, but didn't pick it up either.

"Documents."

The priest thought for a while and said suddenly, Shade suddenly realized that the documents of the Sixth Division of General Affairs and the gun certificate were also turned into puppets and sent into the oil painting. The puppet corresponding to Shade first picked up the document, and then finally bent down to pick up the toy pistol, and even made an obvious movement of confirming the bullet with his fingers.

The puppets in the oil painting and the real daoist are not replicas or have any soul connection, but can transfer damage. Puppet cannot use the ring warlock ability like Shade, but Puppet can at least shoot.

It's just that, by passing weapons in this way, the puppets made by Shade can only be used by himself, not by Freeman.

But that was enough, leaving Mrs. Freeman and the boy in the foyer while Shade and priest went upstairs with the painting.

In the oil painting, the gun-wielding puppet also moved towards the second floor of the model, and met the bandage puppet in the living room on the second floor.

The oil painting made no sound, and the two people outside could only see the action of the puppet raising the gun in the picture.

But unfortunately, even with the revolver, the gun puppet still can't beat the bandage puppet. The opponent is not only tall, but also has excellent evasion ability, and when in the same room as the victim puppet, he can move a short distance inside the model. Even if he was shot, it did not affect his movement at all, and even gave Shade's puppet a knife.

So after the pistol's bullet was empty, Shade, who was injured again, could only temporarily return to the foyer on the first floor to escape.

Because of the fight just now, the bandage puppet has already come to the stairs, and it takes about half an hour to enter the hall.

The gun-wielding puppet threw the ID and revolver out of the model house, which immediately emerged from the surface of the painting. Shade restocked the pistol, but didn't feed the painting again.

"The intelligence level of ordinary puppets is too poor, and they can't compare to bandage puppets. I think your puppets need other helpers."

The priest said suddenly.

"You mean Mr. Freeman and the little boy? Let them fight with my puppets?"

Shade points to the two puppets snuggling together in the painting, shaking Shaking his head, he reminded:
"The boy is too weak, and Freeman's puppet, although normal in intelligence, is too weak."

"I mean myself."

priest very said in a tranquil voice:

"I know you can't turn me into a puppet, but I can take the initiative to touch the painting, so that there are more puppets corresponding to me in the picture."

Shade shook his head immediately:

"Augus priority, having more people won't necessarily help, but it will definitely put you in danger, I think."

He looked at the pistol in his hand, and then at the oil painting.

The revolver was covered again with a handkerchief, but the wooden toy that appeared afterward was almost the same size, not the size of a thumb.

Shade threw the 1:1 scale wooden toy to the painting again, and this time the pistol did not appear in the house model, but appeared on the table next to the model, and the pistol in the picture , actually reverted to a real pistol. It's too big to fit into the house model at all.

The bold attempt made Shade understand another rule, the puppets that are large enough to enter the house will keep the puppet shape and enter the house model. The puppets, which are too large to fit into the house model, will appear on the desktop and become the form of real items.

"Can this gun still be taken out?"

Seeing this happened, Augustus asked curiously.

Shade shook his head to indicate that he didn't know, his eyes scanned the picture more carefully, and then he saw very light text on the curtain as the background in the oil painting.

The curtain itself is in the sun, and the color of this line of text is very similar to the curtain, so I didn't find it immediately:

[The inside and outside of the oil painting, the inside and outside of the painter . ]

Shade looked thoughtful when he read this line of text, hesitated for a moment, and read the text softly. Then, Shade's hand touched the oil painting, and that hand actually reached into the inside of the picture.

"oh?"

Augustus priest watched this scene curiously, and Shade frowned.

He first reaches out to touch his pistol, then successfully retracts it from the frame.

"Does this mean?"

The priest whispered, Shade nods and stops me again and puts my hand into the picture, but I am blocked by the priest:
"This time Come."

He didn't ask how Shade understood those strange words, after all, Shade had shown the ability to know words because of [time and space] in the study meeting before.

Shade told Augustus the priest how to read the ancient letters, and after two attempts, the priest managed to put his hand into the picture.

The hand reaches for the model of the house, and as expected, it cannot be touched, as if there is a glass cover outside the model to block the priest's hand.

Then the priority stretched out to the other items on the table in the picture, holding these things still couldn't touch the house model, but these items could be taken out.

But whether it's a vase, a rotten apple, a statue resembling the Ancient God [primordial crack] or a small pendant, these are all ordinary items. So the two guessed that this was a test object thrown into the oil painting by the previous owner of the oil painting when he tried to fight against the house model.

It is not yet known, except for Shade's [Toy Manufacturing], what kind of production conditions are there for other puppets that can be thrown into oil paintings. In a certain sense, this painting actually has the function of turning the puppet into a real existence.

"My hand can't touch the model, should we think of other methods?"

The priest was lost in thought again, but Shade had already found a way, his face showed Relaxed expression:
"priest, please go out again, go to my house and bring Mia."

Thinking of the cat at home, Shade added:
"Oh , it may not want to let you hold it, you can tell it I have an accident like last time, and lure it to the carriage with clothes."

Shade handed out the keys to his home and dyed The coat of blood, seeing that Priest was still puzzled, he reminded:

"priest, although we can put our hands into the painting, strictly speaking, we are still outside the painting, so we cannot touch it. The house model in the painting. When holding the object in the painting, it is very likely that the object and our body are judged to be the same item.”

“In the oil painting? Outside the oil painting? Yours Can a cat do it?"

The old priest smiled, understood nodded, told Shade to be careful, and went out with the key and Shade's coat.

As August first left, Shade also explained to Mrs. Freeman, who was waiting on the side, and told her not to tell anyone about this after it was over.

Of course Mrs. Freeman understands that it is not a good thing to encounter a supernatural event in her family, and speaking out may affect the children's future marriages. She immediately took her son and swore to God that she would not tell anyone about the whole thing.

But Shade still thinks that there is time for Dr. Schneider to come and let the psychiatrist use his ability to make the Freeman family forget all this.

Doctors cannot completely erase memories, which can cause permanent damage to the brain. But he could blur the Freeman family's memory of the incident until years later they suspect it was just a dream.

For the ordinary person, it is good for them to forget about mysterious and extraordinary contact.

Including the carriage ride and baiting the timid cat in St. Teresa Square, the priest went back and forth for more than an hour.

In the meantime, the bandaged puppets in the model house have come from the stairs to the foyer. In order to avoid it, Shade used Mystic Art to open the door of the landlord's house on the first floor, and went inside to temporarily hide.

Although this is not good, the entire group will not disturb other people's things, so this is also a last resort.

I don't know if it was the action of the priest who just reached out and tried to touch the house model, which made the relic feel a greater danger, and the movement speed of the bandage puppet increased again. Before Priest came back, he had already blocked three dolls in the large bedroom on the first floor in the model.

Shade sends the pistol into the painting again, and the three figures are forced to deal with the bandaged puppets. The smaller puppets run first, the two larger puppets wrap around the bandage puppets, and then in turn leave the room as in reality.

But even with three puppets fighting one puppet, the bandage puppet still has the upper hand. Although Shade was not injured this time, the puppet that houses Mr. Freeman's soul was seriously injured because it has been protecting the puppet at all costs.

Fortunately, Mr. Freeman is dead, and the puppet in the picture is injured, just injured.

"Is the father back?"

For safety, Shade never let the little boy touch or watch the oil painting again. But the child, who was held by the mother, felt ignorantly that Mr. Freeman was protecting him.

When the group of three people moved back to the second floor, the little boy was still looking around, as if expecting that the father would suddenly come out of the room with a smile. But the painter is impossible to come back, and if he does come back, Shade will be more troubled.

In short, the oil painting seems to sense that people outside the picture have a way to deal with it, so it gives more strength to the bandage puppet in the picture.

And as the bandaged puppet moves faster, Shade and the boy, affected by the relic, become more and more dangerous. The Whisper element of the relic is already affecting the boy. Even with Shade watching over him, if this matter is not resolved as soon as possible, it is probably the best outcome for the boy to become a lunatic.

Fortunately, Augustus first successfully brought Mia back.

The vigilant orange cat did not let Augustus priest hold him, but jumped up the stairs behind him. Seeing Shade sitting in the living room, the cat immediately jumped up excitedly.

Shade, who has been nervous all the time, finally laughed when he saw the familiar cat. Holding Mia, he kept stroking the cat's head. The orange cat barked "meow~", and with Shade's stroking, the fluffy little head was shaking, allowing him to better touch.
