While at Edgar's apartment, when he was ready to leave. Suddenly Wallace appeared in front of him. Edgar was obviously shocked.
"What are you here for?" tanyanya.
"There's something strange going on in your house! For the first time the house was 'sealed' and I couldn't go inside! Who did it?" ask Wallace to the point.
"Where do I know! I never asked anyone to seal the house!" edgar answered with a high voice.
"You must hurry home to see the condition of Ginnevra!" wallace.
"If Crystal Orlov hasn't been found yet, how can I go home to help him? Why don't you ask your mother to give me the Crystal so I can go home soon? Besides you don't have to worry about sister, there's already a grandmother Nancy keeping her there!" answer Edgar ketus.
"You're sure Crystal Orlov is going to help Ginnevra or take Ginnevra's life!?" ask Wallace calmly. Then he disappeared.
Edgar did not bother to hear Wallace's last words. He was sitting on the sofa. Keep struggling with his heart.
'How can I help my sister if Crystal Orlov himself is cursed? What if the intention of wanting to help turned around to harm!? Prince Wallace himself was brother's best friend, there was no way he would do the thing he knew harmed him. Now who am I supposed to trust? What am I supposed to do?'
As soon as Edgar's mind was confused, he forgot to immediately meet Eriza. So the time is stretched almost an hour. He just woke up and rushed away.

After a search on the search engine failed to yield results, I then picked up a list of New Angeles phone books near the cable phone. This list of the latest and thickest phone books contains important phone numbers and cable phone numbers and mobile phones of all people who live in this city.
I started with the letter W. The entire name initialed W does not exist. Continue searching by last name, starting with the letter G. There are dozens of Grayson names but none of them are Wallace's first names. This is impossible! Does that mean there is no one named Wallace living in this city?! Then who's Wallace I've been seeing all night?
Every night .... Waitaminute! Someone stuck with that sentence. I remembered Mr. Berto's reply last day when I asked him about Wallace, 'he only appears at night'.
Why did Berto use the word 'appear' instead of 'come'?! Looks like something's wrong. I try to remember all the events that have happened. First on Stairway Street, two young men who wanted to tease me suddenly ran away in fear. If the two young men saw Wallace, they couldn't possibly approach me. If only because of the minimal light will still look the shadow of two people instead of just my shadow. And always when I'm with him people only see me for themselves, like it was at Edgar's birthday party.
Second, he always avoided the crowd. Prefer in a well-lit place with little light. In bright places, her skin looks pale and her hands are always cold. Then he can find out my address while I never tell him. He knows almost everything.
Third, he is always seen at night. And only come at night. Fourth, it was Edgar who suddenly asked me to stay away from him. Even he himself could not explain the reason. And lastly the almost unbelievable reality, the Dixie family painting. There really is no difference with the Wallace I know. Plus the fact there's no Wallace in this town. So, who was with me all this time?!
My mind is starting to get messed up. I started to feel scared myself. This is impossible! Impossible! Edgar must know something.
Without delaying the time I ran outside the apartment in a panic. Just then Edgar's car came. It stopped in front of me.
"Eriza, where are you going?" edgar asked with a face no less panicked.
"You have to tell me everything! Now too!" I asked with a trembling tone.
"Yes, yeah, but tell me what?" edgar asked confused.
"Edgar, you know. Tell me who Wallace really is!" my door with eyes began to turn red.
Edgar did not immediately reply, he was stunned. Surprised by my question.
"Edgar, you must know something! Tell Edgar! He's not Wallace Grayson, is he!?" I pressed with a shake of Edgar's hand.
"I don't know, Riza! I'm sorry, I promised I wouldn't interfere in your business! Maybe you should talk to him!" edgar answered with a feeling of being wrong.
I fell silent with a whim. I can't believe this is happening. I feel stupid.
"Eriza, we go back inside first! You need to calm yourself!" edgar said slowly.
He then led me back to my apartment. I'm still so shocked. I can't feel calm yet. Edgar gave me a glass of drink.
"Drink first!" tell it.
I grabbed the glass and sipped it a little.
"Calm down. Talk about it well!" said Edgar.
"How can I calm down!? If I find the truth so scary! Edgar, is this just a dream? I was dreaming?" my many.
"No, Riza! It's reality! You have to see the truth!" answer Edgar.
"So, is this what you mean to ask me to stay away from him?" my many.
Edgar nodded slowly. I stared at the wall clock, it was still too late. But I can't take it anymore. I really can't believe any of this. I want to go and prove that this is all a lie. Then I ran out of the apartment while Edgar chased me. He held my hand firmly.
"Riza, where are you going?" snapped it.
"I'm going to Dixie Holly and prove all this is not true!" my reply. But Edgar didn't let go of my hand.
"Let go, Edgar!" my door.
"No!" answer Edgar.
"Get!" I grit him harder.
"Well, if you want to go there prove it! I'll drive you right now!" sama later.
He then pulled my hand to follow him into the car. Once ready the car goes fast to Dixie Holly. No matter how crowded the highway was this afternoon, Edgar several times overtook the car in front of him. And drove at high speed.
"Edgar, can't you just keep the car a little bit?" I said. But he didn't hear.
"Edgar, are you going to kill me?!" I screamed at him.
The speed of the car decreases.
"My mind's fucked up, Riza! Please don't escalate my problems!" said Edgar.
"What's? I'm multiplying your problems? I didn't even ask you to take me there! If you don't like to put me down here right now! I can go and solve my own problems!" I said angry.
The car stopped immediately. Looks like Edgar seriously dropped me off halfway. Without further ado I went straight down and slammed the door rudely. But apparently I have reached my destination.
I don't mind Edgar who's still in the car. I walked right into Dixie Street. It was unexpected that Edgar was chasing me from behind.
"Riza. Eriza. Wait!" call Edgar. But I don't mind it.
He still chased me.
"Erazie!" call him after successfully aligning steps with me.
"You want what else? Shouldn't you go home and take care of your own problems?" ketus.
"Eriza, I'm sorry! I was just a little emotional! I can't possibly leave you alone here. I'm afraid it will be like yesterday" replied Edgar. He's starting to look calm.
I was silent about the incident possessed by a spirit yesterday. I so shuddered to myself happened to be passing through the Maera Mansion. I accelerated my footsteps. Edgar's still following me.
"I don't know how to! I can't find Crystal Orlov, while I've been here a long time looking for him. My time is getting narrower. I can't buy any more time. While on the other hand I'm afraid that later Crystal will harm Ginnevra. Remembering that crystal was cursed. I really don't know what to do!" edgar said to tell of his grief.
"I understand. Sorry for yelling at you. We don't really need a Crystal Orlov, but there's more to it than that crystal!" I said.
"What do you mean?" ask Edgar.
"I'll tell you later after all this is done!" my answer.
Now I have arrived at the cathedral. There's no one there. The doors of the cathedral are still open but there are no visitors. Suddenly Mr. Berto came out of the side door turning his body about to go to the park. I quickly called him,
Mr. Berto looked at me. Me and Edgar who were still following me walked over to the old man.
"Miss, I happen to want to return it ...."
Not done yet he spoke I cut him off quickly. Seeing Mr. Berto about to return the money I deposited for him.
"No, don't give it back! Think of it as a sign of my gratitude! You keep it! There's still something I want to ask you!"
"Then we'll just talk inside!" bring sir Berto.
Then we were brought in through that side door and arrived at the back room of the place for the guests. Mr. Berto invited us to sit down, and gave us two glasses of mineral water.
"What do you want to ask, Miss?" ask Mr. Berto with a heavy voice.
"Sir Berto, does Wallace come here often? Do you know him well?" I'm starting a question.
"Yes, I know. He comes every night. I even talked to him a few times!" replied Mr. Berto without any suspicion.
"Then you know where he lives! His background and family, right?! Can you tell me?" ask again.
This time Berto seemed silent. Can't answer my question. Which I think is a simple question for someone he knows very well.
"Sir Berto, is his name Wallace Grayson?"
I asked again with a little urgency.
"Is that Wallace Dixie?!"
I continued in a soft voice.
At that time Mr. Berto just looked at me. With a look I don't understand. Long enough until he said something.
"I don't understand what your question means! But I'll tell you a story! Come if you want to know!"
Mr. Berto then got up from his chair walking to another room inside. Edgar and I followed him. Until then we arrived at a ladder. Very high circular stairs leading to the tower. Mr. Berto continued to climb the stairs one by one to the top of the tower. Edgar and I continued to follow despite being confused about what this meant. Because the one at the top of the tower is just a big bell.
"Sir Berto, where are we going?" ask me to Mr. Berto who walked first in front.
"To the top of the bell tower!" answer Mr. Berto.
"For what?" ask again.
"You'll find out later!" answer Mr. Berto.
Though I was already exhausted from climbing the stairs that were probably nearly ten floors high. But Mr. Berto still looks strong with his old age.
We finally reached the top. I sat down in a long chair there. There is nothing here, just a big bell.
"What are we gonna do here?" ask Edgar who was silent.
"Look over there!" said Mr. Berto. His finger pointed to the middle of the forest far ahead.
I stood looking down. Pretty high. From up here I could see the forest clearly without being blocked by the wall. And look at what Mr. Berto showed. There's something in the middle of the woods. Like large pillars that are partially destroyed but there are some that are also covered with vines. Only the dense forest surrounding the destroyed buildings and pillars were.
"What's that?" my many.
"It's a palace. There used to be a Kingdom here, it was called the Kingdom of Dixie. You may have heard that story. But now all that remains is the ruins of the palace. After the war that killed King Dixie and the Prince, the kingdom of Dixie finally fell," replied Mr. Berto.
"I read it in a book! So, the palace really exists?! Can we go there?" my many.
"can't. No one can go in there. The reason why a high wall like this was made was so that no one would go back there. Because that place always takes a toll, I don't know how many accidents have happened there. The palace is haunted!" said Mr. Berto.
"The Angker? Isn't every one of these buildings haunted as well?!" I said.
"Before this building existed, when it was first discovered Dixie Street was a residential place. How many people died during the war kept their spirits alive. Those who died as a result of the war never left this place. That's why the area is said to be haunted. Not even one person can stand to live here" Berto explained.
"That's why this is a dead area?! Ah, means the figure I saw at the Lucent Inn was also one of those spirits? Hii ...," I was horrified.
"Then the queen still lives in her palace?!" said Edgar.
I looked at Edgar. And Mr. Berto laughed.
"Do you think so? The queen didn't die in the war, she killed herself!" said Mr. Berto.
"I'm sure so, because a few days ago when we entered the Maera Mansion his spirit possessed Eriza's body!" said Edgar.
Mr. Berto was silent. Then he asked,
"What did you guys do that he got into you, miss?"
"Actually yesterday we went to look for Crystal Orlov!" my answer.
"But he seems angry. He said he'd hurt whoever had the Crystal!" keep Edgar.
"Why are you looking for Crystal Orlov! No one has ever been able to find it!" said Mr. Berto.
"That's .. to help my dead brother!" Edgar says.
"Omong empty! I've never heard of a story about Crystal Orlov as a medium to help people. There are people who hunt down Crystal Orlov for no good purpose" replied the Old Man.
I suddenly remembered something, I then asked Mr. Berto.
"Sir Berto, I remember didn't you once forbid me from approaching the Lucent Inn? What reason?"
Mr. Berto smiled.
"It was to prevent something from happening. But since it happened already, then!" the answer.
But I still don't understand, though,
"What do you mean something like?" my many.
Berto did not answer but laughed. Then he started walking down the stairs. Edgar and I went down.
"Sir Berto, I don't understand what you mean!" I said.
"It's over, Miss! There's no point in me explaining! You are already in touch with that figure you saw!" answer the Old Man.
That figure ...! I stopped walking. So, this really happened? Is that him?!
"Eriza, what's wrong with you?" edgar asked to see me motionless.
"I'm fine! It's okay!" I said while calming myself. I went back down the stairs.
Edgar was still watching me while watching my footsteps. I just walked like half a float. My feet feel light. My mind is messed up, back again memories that used to play in the head. It used to feel strange but now only realize the strangeness.
Mr. Berto broke away as soon as he went back down. Edgar and I walked out of the Cathedral.
"I'll take you home, yeah!" edgar said slowly.
"No Edgar, I have to talk to him!" I answered with eyes that were hot.
"Riza, you can't talk to this. You need to calm down!" said Edgar.
Come to think of it as true, Edgar said, I can't speak of my mind being screwed up like this. I need to calm down first. While thinking about what I should say when dealing with him later. I also obeyed Edgar. He drove me back to the apartment.
