In the darkness of the night, Charles was quite far away chasing that unknown shadow. The cries of the dogs could be heard clearly, making that atmosphere of the night more scary. The fog played a large part of the wall, but Charles was more concerned that the man next to him would not be lost by his eyes. Charles was also careful not to notice that someone was behind him. The streets were as deserted as there was no one in the city except for the unknown shadow that seemed safe to be heading towards its destination and Charles who was following that unknown shadow with great vigilance.
Charles hides behind a bench as soon as he sees that unknown shadow stops, his heartbeat was very fast, he feels as if someone had put a lot of weight on his chest, it was caused by fear. Charles was worried that the unknown man knew that someone was following him. Charles was hiding behind the throne for a while, then courageously looked at that shadow, he stood back to Charles in the same state, now Charles came to life that he was not caught. But he had a dilemma as to why the man was not moving forward towards his destination.
Charles's breath, standing behind a bench, is bound when he sees a snake passing through his leg. As death kissed Charles himself, Charles cautiously stood in that state, the snake passes through his feet shortly. In so much, that shadow also moved forward. Charles was worried that he would not get out of the unknown shadow, but the snake had blocked the way in the middle, after the snake snorted, Charles lingered behind that unknown shadow.
As the night was accompanying Charles, he saw the shadow as he walked away. Charles again forgot everything and followed him. Charles was quick to follow him.
Charles was far away from Howard's House, and he was also worried about Howard. He was thinking that if that shadow had left from Howard's room, there must be something wrong with Howard or Howard knew it and didn't tell Charles about it. After all, why did he come to Howard's House this night, he does not have any stolen goods, he may have come with the intention of stealing. All these things were going on in Charles's mind chasing that unknown shadow.
Suddenly, Charles realizes that the shadow has stopped once more, Charles immediately turns his eye for a cover to hide, he sees a tree on the side of the road to the left, Charles immediately hides behind him and monitors the movement of that shadow.
He turns back once but Charles was unable to see his face due to darkness and fog. He looks back for a while, perhaps he was aware that someone was following him and he was quick to see the man, but Charles was watching his movements from behind the tree. Charles was a little scared but he did not find anyone behind him and looked again at that unknown shadow, then he had disappeared, Charles leaves behind the tree and looks around well but finds no one except himself. Charles understood that he had failed in pursuit, that unknown man had gone out of his hands, no longer knowing who he was and why he had left Howard's House. If he were a thief, he would be called a successful thief because he had already thought of Charles eating all around, he had put his skill into his work by dodging Charles, but if he were a thief, what would he have stolen, now that was the thought again and again in Charles's mind. Charles walks back to Howard's house with these ideas and his failure. Along the way, he was wondering where the unknown shadow suddenly disappeared, but even more worried that there was no loss of Howard. Charles moves in his footsteps as soon as Howard's thought comes to mind. He was now close to Howard's house after running fast for a while. Charles had come to realize how far he had gone, if something had moved further, he would have left the city. Charles was very tired and with tired steps he reaches Howard's House and opens the main door and enters the house, he takes special care that the door has been closed well, then he examines every corner of the house thoroughly, even checks every door, curtains, sofa, table under which there is no hiding, he has panic in his mind, after thoroughly scrutinizing the bottom floor, Howard's room was on the top floor with other empty rooms. It was the turn of left rooms on the top floor.
Charles first found it appropriate to look into Howard's room, which would comfort Howard that he was well and that no accident had occurred. He slowly climbs the stairs leading to Howard's room, then stands in front of Howard's room. He opens with the sound of "charrrrrrrrrrrr" as soon as a little emphasis is placed on the door.
Howard was lying on his bed right in front of him, Charles approaches him and sees Howard well by candlelight, then examines his Naves, he was happy to know that his friend was all right, that unknown shadow had not harmed him. Then Charles wakes up from the bed to check Howard's room, suddenly his gaze falls on a small table placed near the bed on which a Black Rose was placed. Howard takes that rose in his hand and looks at it quite surprised, how did this Rose get here, somewhere it is not connected to that unknown shadow, maybe he came here to keep this rose but what does this Black Rose mean at all, it seems like this Rose was broken from the garden of Woods Villa. Woods stood up as soon as he thought about the villa, his brain stopped working as if he were holding a Black Rose and was frozen in the same state because fear had penetrated Charles. That is exactly the fear that Charles experienced only a few days ago, when an unknown shadow followed him and Charles's type writer himself typed an emerald.
Charles leaves Howard's room with that Black Rose and sits down in the chair near the fireplace in the hall, looking at the beauty of a tucked Rose and wondering about the real reason why he was in Howard's room. Charles was worried about what the owner of this Black Rose thought, whether it was intended to intimidate Howard and Charles, or whether he wanted to convey a specific message through this Black Rose. But it was very difficult for Charles himself to come to a conclusion because neither the unknown shadow that kept him could find his hand, nor could he himself tell the Black Rose what the real purpose of his being there was, that Rose was enough to seduce anyone with its beauty, perhaps that Rose had also paid the price of being senseless, that was why it was broken from a living plant and brought here with ruthlessness. That Rose must also have experienced unbearable pain when breaking, a pain experienced after a part of the organ has been cut or broken.

Charles was thinking about the incident that happened at night, he did not know when it was morning, Charles sat by the fireplace all night just thinking about that unknown shadow, when he realized that he had come to the bathroom fresh. After that, walked towards the kitchen to make breakfast in the morning. A few toasts and scrambled eggs with butter and a glass of milk, Howard came out of his room and came to the dining table as soon as he found the breakfast aroma. His condition was noticeably improved, Charles put breakfast for him and at the same time sat with his breakfast in the front chair.
The two were enjoying breakfast, so Charles plays the role, saying," yesterday you brought a Black Rose and you didn't even know it", Charles looks at him.
"What... What are you talking about, someone here came to give a black rose, what were you doing," Howard marveled and asks Charles.
"Yes, really, last night someone left with a black rose on the table with your bed, I followed him far enough but he left," Charles assured Howard of his point.
"Black Rose... That is, Woods Villa... Then you also saw an unknown person, maybe this is not the same beautiful girl I mentioned to you, maybe it will not be the same girl... I told you that she is alive and there must be another girl dead... Otherwise, who would have this Black Rose, it would be the garden of the same woods Villa, " Howard confided, looking at Charles. Now Charles too was convinced of her words, otherwise what was the point of putting that rose close to Howard's bed, after all Howard was the man who had seen the girl.
"I'm also convinced of your words now, I think there was some girl I couldn't see but you met her so last night she might have brought you a Black Rose," Charles said, agreeing to Howard.
"I already told you... Well where is that rose", Howard asked Charles about that Black Rose.
"Finish breakfast first, what a rash thing... Well, there's something mysterious in that Woods Villa, your meeting that girl but avoiding me, Mrs. Wood's telling me that no one else lives in that Villa,except him, is pointing to a mystery,"Charles said, surprising Howard.
"Maybe you're right, but how do we solve this kink, tell me if you have a way," Howard asked Charles about reaching a conclusion.
"You know two days ago I brought a type writer and that type writer mentioned the ghost of Woods villa on the first night," Charles excitedly told Howard about his type writer.
"Automatically typed... How could that be, meaning how a typwriter can type himself without a typist, " Howard told Charles in a joking tone.
"My typewriter can type just as you can see an unknown beauty in woods villa, just as I believed in you, you have to believe my words, you have to stay in my house one night to prove my point," Charles told Howard, giving proof of his point.
"Let's say your type writer is also associated with Woods villa, but to prove these things, it's important to investigate Woods villa once again, only then you can get to the bottom of something," Howard said to Charles.
"Maybe you're right, tell me on what day to carry out this detective work ", Charles asked Howard.
"Not such... This requires planning, first of all, to get a good idea of the way back and forth to Woods Villa, at the main gate the guards will always be ready, there will be servants inside, we will have to enter in due time, maybe hiding in the villa's garden and waiting, so if we have to get to the bottom of everything, we will have to work on this plan, " Howard explained to Charles, then picked up a glass of milk and started drinking it.
"Hmmm...If we have to take out all the information, we will have to plan and steal inside Woods villa, only then we will be able to find out the type writer and the unknown beauty", Charles also agreed with Howard.
"Let's end breakfast, it's time to get to work, but before that, give the Black Rose brought by my unknown beauty, if you feel bored between work, there will be some refreshment to look at it," Howard said, tying the role to Charles.
"Yes, why not... You have a sense of love there at that center table, go and get a sense of love, " Charles said, smiling at Howard.
The two went to work after finishing breakfast, while Charles was curious about the truth of the Type Writer, Howard's love for the beauty, who was excited to receive the Black Rose as a gift.
While Charles was absolutely convinced that his typewriter was truly miraculous and associated with Woods Villa, Howard was also convinced that he had seen a beautiful girl alive and that she too lived in a Woods Villa whose mistress, Mrs. Wood, had two men and a few servants. The two friends have made up their mind to expose the secret, but to carry out their plan properly, both will have to work hard.
Whether the two friends will be able to succeed in their plan and reveal the secrets of Woods Villa, time will tell, but death had taken its first step towards both, which was demonstrated by giving a black rose as a sight, but the two young men were completely unaware of this.
