Chapter 379 Weird clues!
"What's wrong?"
Seeing the change in Qiao's expression, Zhang Yi asked casually.
"Sam and the others seem to have discovered something, but they couldn't explain clearly on the phone. They asked us to gather back at the hotel. I guess they already have a clue."
Joe put the phone away and drank the coffee in the cup in one gulp.
Originally, Zhang Yi and the others planned to go to the church, but they probably wouldn't be able to find any useful information there. The missing girls were relatively far away from each other, and there was no connection on the surface.
When they returned to the hotel, Dean and Sam had been waiting for a while.
"Did you find any clues?"
Seeing Zhang Yi and Qiao entering the door, Sam couldn't help but ask.
"That's right. Zhang Yi discovered that the victims were all virgins, which should eliminate some options. Moreover, I found no traces of the devil, no sulfur, and no supernatural frequencies. There is a high probability that this has nothing to do with the devil."
Qiao took out the demon soul detector in his arms and shook it, then crossed his arms and said.
"Now I feel more and more that there are some evil cultists here."
"Interesting entry point." Dean raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhang Yi with interest. "How do you know they are all virgins? It would be great if I also had this ability."
"Come on Dean, why didn't I know you had changed your taste?"
Sam immediately broke down the trouble, but Dean didn't care at all, and instead smiled.
"That's right, I like experienced people."
"Do you really want to continue this topic in front of me?"
Joe gave Dean a hard look.
Sensing her gaze, Dean suppressed the smile on his face with embarrassment.
"Okay friends, let's get down to business. Can you share with us any useful information you have found? Maybe by combining these we can determine the identity of the other party."
Zhang Yi went to the refrigerator and took out a bottle of cold beer, then turned around and got a bottle for everyone, then looked at Sam and asked.
"Actually, it doesn't count as having information. Dean and I went to the home of one of the victims, and we found something interesting there."
Sam took the beer and thanked him, then sat in front of the computer and said.
"Although the clues provided by the victim's family were similar, we got some key information from their neighbor. On the night the girl disappeared, he saw signs of fire in the girl's house."
"Fire?"
Qiao looked at Zhang Yi with confusion in his eyes.
In the intelligence they collected, there was never any indication of a fire.
Sam also saw Joe's confusion, so he explained accordingly.
"That girl was the only one missing from her home. On the night she disappeared, her neighbor kept saying that he saw fire coming out of the girl's bedroom, but in fact, the local fire department never received a fire alarm."
"Furthermore, there were no traces of burning in the girl's room at all, and the neighbor was extremely drunk that night, so no one believed what he said, and naturally it would not appear in the police station's files." Dean added One sentence.
After hearing these clues, Qiao's frown deepened. She held her chin and thought about the possible connections between all this information.
As if he felt that the drunk man's words were not enough to constitute testimony, Dean took a sip of wine and chuckled as he revealed another important discovery.
"Do you know what the most interesting thing is? Before the first missing girl case occurred, a wildfire just broke out in the natural park here. Although the fire was quickly controlled, no one could find the source of the fire."
"This is interesting, wildfire, girl missing, there was a fire in the house on the night of the disappearance."
Zhang Yi's mind moved and he immediately thought of the real culprit who caused all this.
Looking at the three young people, Zhang Yi didn't know what to say for a moment. He didn't expect that they would encounter such a terrifying enemy this time.
"Is it possible that you know what we're dealing with?"
Sam looked at Zhang Yi, trying to get some useful information from him.
"Why don't you check these keywords on the search engine?" Zhang Yi smiled helplessly, turned around and sat on the sofa.
Sam and Dean looked at each other, both a little confused.
But Sam still followed Zhang Ye's suggestion. Of course, he would have done it even if Zhang Ye didn't tell him. This is the way they have always worked.
Pretending to be a federal agent to investigate and collect evidence is only the first step. This method will allow you to get closer to the victim or his family members, and it can also avoid being targeted by local police detectives. It is a very effective method.
But if they don't get too clear information after the investigation, they will seek help through the Internet or contact other demon hunters to look for some clues.
Sam's fingers kept tapping the keyboard, and the search obviously took some time. Joe also sat on the sofa, quietly waiting for the results.
After about ten minutes, Sam's expression gradually became more exciting from the confused one at the beginning.
"This is impossible."
"What's wrong Sammy?" Dean looked over curiously. "What did you find?"
"I searched for flames, kidnapping virgins, wildfires without origins, and guess what, the results were surprisingly consistent every time."
Everyone's attention was focused on it.
"What is it?"
"The official website for World of Warcraft players."
Sam turned the laptop around and showed it to the three people in front of him.
What appeared on the computer screen was none other than the most popular large-scale online client game. Zhang Yi could see several familiar game characters from it.
"I don't know what that means, man, I've never played this damn game before."
"Dragon, Dean."
Joe took over the conversation and gave Dean the answer.
"It's a dragon, a dungeon level in the latest expansion pack of World of Warcraft."
As soon as this answer came out, the faces of everyone present began to look strange, except Zhang Yi who smiled and remained silent.
"Look, I said it's impossible." Sam spread his hands.
"I can't say it's completely impossible."
Qiao looked at Zhang Yi beside him. Since wizards from other worlds exist, dragons, creatures that have been spread in legends since ancient times, should naturally also exist.
"It's great. Since this old man appeared, all those weird things have appeared. We are not only looking for an angel, but now we are also looking for a dragon. Believe me, I won't know anything about what I encounter next. Surprised."
Dean laughed and took out his phone.
"What other surprises can there be? I'd better go find someone to ask about the situation first."
As Dean and Sam's exclusive backup, whenever they encounter a problem they don't understand, they always turn to Bobby for help.
Bobby was also a close friend of their father in his early years. Later, after conducting several demon hunts, he began to compile information and took on the job of supporting other demon hunters.
Since most demon hunters dare not trust other people, most of them act alone as lone wolves. However, in this way, the probability of them encountering danger and being sacrificed is particularly high.
In this case, a middleman like Bobby plays a very important role. He will have one-way contact with other demon hunters offline like an online one, and help them find the intelligence and weaknesses of the corresponding monsters.
Bobby had many telephones and pagers, and each line was connected to a witcher. He himself sat behind the scenes, providing information assistance to these people, and sometimes even taking action himself.
After contacting Bobby, the Winchester brothers have been in contact with him. Over time, their relationship has become like a father and son.
It can be said that no matter what difficulties Dean and Sam encounter, Bobby will always help them immediately.
".How can I help you?"
Bobby yelled into the phone with a speechless expression.
"Dragon, what are you kidding? First the angel and then the dragon. You might as well go to God. That's a dragon. Who are you going to let me ask, Hogwarts?!"
Dean glanced at everyone and walked back to the bedroom with an awkward expression.
"I'm serious, Bobby."
"It's not like the Loch Ness Monster, the dragon isn't even real, that creature doesn't exist."
In all the years Bobby has been doing this, this is the first time he has heard of a demon hunter encountering a dragon.
"I'll make a few calls to check with old friends, but you'd better not get your hopes up too much."
On the other side, Sam in the living room looked at Zhang Yi curiously.
"So...you already knew that, right?"
"I come from the world of superheroes, Sam. Although dragons are not common creatures there, they don't exist." Zhang Yi shrugged.
He has not forgotten that on the earth in the wasteland universe, there is an extraordinary dragon that is out of control and wandering in the wild, threatening the people of the wasteland.
"But in your world, I guess dragons are not difficult to deal with. As long as you find the right method, there will always be countermeasures."
The universe of the evil forces is actually related to many multiverses. For example, in Marvel comics, there are often some jokes about the Winchester brothers, and in the DC American TV series Legends of Tomorrow, there is an episode that is linked to the evil forces. .
"Then do you happen to know how to deal with dragons, or is there any way for us to find those guys and rescue the kidnapped girls?" Sam asked again.
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Yi nodded slightly.
"If I remember correctly, dragons should live in caves. They feed on virgins and live on countless gold and silver jewelry. If we can find the cave, we should be able to find traces of those guys."
"That makes sense."
After hearing this, Sam immediately adjusted his computer and began to check whether there were any caves or natural grottoes nearby.
At this moment, Zhang Yi suddenly sensed something and narrowed his eyes slightly.
After a pause, Zhang Yi stood up and said softly.
"I went out to find something to eat. No matter what, I have to taste some delicious food in this world."
"I'll go with you." Qiao was eager to give it a try.
"No need, I'm just wandering around."
Zhang Ye smiled meaningfully.
“It won’t take long”
