Chapter 240
Being busy until the middle of the night, the situation finally stabilized.
Rose Squad was resting in the police station, more or less tired.
Donald cooperated with Boglo to quickly kill the monster and cleaned up the remaining undying creatures in the small town of Red Cliff, which consumed a lot of spirit strength.
Borglo is cutting his palm with a knife, and some strangely colored liquid flows out of the wound. His innate talent is to make poison instead of digesting poison. If these poisons are not consumed in battle, Then he has to find a way to force them out after the war, otherwise staying in the body will only cause great harm to his own body.
Horn is communicating with the deputy sheriff in the police station, and the sad expression on the deputy’s face can tell that the situation is obviously not satisfactory.
“Donald, I made coffee for you, no sugar added.”
Stephanie put a few cups of coffee on the table, and specially sent Donald’s cup separately Come.
“Thank you…Captain, how’s it going.”
Sipping a sip of coffee, the bitter taste filled his mouth, his spirits lifted a little, and Donald sat up straight Body asked Horn.
“Thanks to you and Boglo, with nearly seventy casualties, you guys came back in time, the slaughter of undying creatures has only just begun, and if we return at the time… unimaginable. ”
The number of undying creatures that appeared in Redcliffe Township was not more than 15, and the killing speed was not fast. Donald rushed back all the way with Boglo. If it was 5 minutes late, this data might be Still going up.
However, even so, such a result is a very big blow for a town with a total population of no more than 3,000 people.
“I heard Susannah say you killed the murderer?”
I had been busy with the rescue before and didn’t have time to inquire about the situation of the battle. clear.
“It should be said to be one of the murderers… This guy sacrificed himself in order to send the demon cage out. If he is the only one committing the crime, his own escape should be the most important thing. , the demon cage has collected a lot of soul energy from the dead, I’m worried that something will happen…”
Donald watched the police station on the ground and was killed by himself and Boglo. The undying creature, continued,
“The two undying creatures will disappear in the daytime because the death of the master cannot take them back, and this guy still chooses to let the undying creature deliver things, which means that In the vicinity of Hongya Town, there must be his stronghold, and there is naturally a support person in this stronghold, I think we have to find out the matter as soon as possible!”
The matter is undoubtedly a little complicated now.
“How to check this, I don’t even have a clue, sigh”
Burns poured holy water on his wound to prevent the negative energy of undying creature from causing the wound to rot. The collision of diametrically opposed energies hurt him contorts one’s face in agony.
“There is a clue, it’s this demon cage. I noticed the appearance of this man before he turned into a corpse. He is tall and fat. I asked when I was in town this evening. Through this information, a resident said that his wife once saw a tall fatty who often went to the barren forest to hang a demon cage. They should be the same person, so it seems that he should have lived in Hongya Town for a while. Time, or the resident of the town itself… Tall fatty, pale, no beard, Deputy Sheriff, it’s important that you send someone to ask if any of the villagers have seen him.”
Mentioning about the demon cage that Stephanie and the others brought back, Donald thought about the details at that time. The consumption of spirit strength made him not dare to open agile thinking at will.
“He didn’t let go of the heads, the heads in his hands, even if we were driven to a dead end. Where are the two heads now?”
He was going to his hands Boglott, who applied healing medicine to the wound, said something.
“Yes, I remember that they were two masked heads. They were on the street in the middle of the town. They were running around before, and I didn’t pay attention to this. I quickly sent someone to look for them. It’s hard to find.”
After he said this, Donald also recalled the two heads, looking towards the deputy sheriff.
“Don’t look for it, we brought it back, one belongs to… the sheriff, and the other belongs to a rich man in the town.”
The deputy sheriff took He started to wipe the sweat on his face with a handkerchief. It was clearly autumn, and it was probably a cold sweat from fright.
Donald thought to himself that it was no wonder he had not seen the sheriff. It stands to reason that at this time, the deputy sheriff would definitely not be in charge of the situation, and then he thought about it and felt that it was wrong.
“Sheriff’s? He’s on patrol?”
Don’t believe what Donald said. It’s not like he hasn’t seen the sheriff before. Knowing that he sits in the office all day, and is “trained” by various banquets at night, such a person would go to the front line of danger with firearms to take risks?
“No, he was killed at home, and the rich man was also killed at home.”
The deputy sheriff was also puzzled, seeing the two people He was no less surprised than Donald when he turned his head, and he only found out after asking the police.
“The murderer set up traps in order to concentrate the killers, and went to the sheriff’s house to kill, which can be understood as wanting to cause chaos, so what’s going on with this rich man? His residence is definitely not in the ordinary Next to the resident, why did the murderer specifically kill him, and the two heads? Go get it.”
This is an act contrary to the purpose, the murderer killed the rich man, but did not take it from his home Take anything of value, as evidenced by the empty pockets over the murderer’s body.
Even assuming he grabbed valuables and quietly buried them elsewhere.
What is the purpose of cutting the head and taking it back as a memorial?
It doesn’t look good either.
The same problem exists with the sheriff.
Wait for the two heads to be brought in from the outside wrapped in cloth and placed directly on the table to open, Stephanie turned her face to the side and dared to peek, while the others stepped forward, Donald more. It is directly to take off the mask.
Both are wooden masks, and on the sheriff’s head is the appearance of a human face with a beard on the chin, paint around the eyes, and a nose that appears to have been drawn in pencil.
Wearing on the rich man’s face is a bull’s head, flat, looking very abstract.
“What does it mean to put a mask on someone’s head, who of you have researched on coat of arms or such masks, is there any special meaning for this behavior?”
Donald couldn’t understand the meaning of these two masks, so he could only look towards a few people next to him. Their expressions were similar, either shaking their heads or frowning. Stephanie didn’t look here after Donald took off the masks.
“There is a saying, there is a custom in some places to put on a mask before burial, cover their eyes, prevent the soul from remembering the route of burial, so as to return home, unable to enter the reincarnation… …but this mask has both eyes open.”
Susannah proposed an idea, which she then rejected.
“These two masks… I seem to have the impression that when the girl disappeared about two years ago, some witnesses said they saw suspicious people wearing such masks, In fact, there is a tradition of making masks in our town, usually at the annual bonfire festival, which is equivalent to a masquerade.”
The deputy sheriff suddenly interjected at this time, and everyone’s eyes turned to him again. .
“It’s the case of the disappearance of a young girl again. The undying creatures of that year still have masks…why should they wear them on the sheriff and the rich? Deputy Sheriff, the case of the girl’s disappearance back then, you know How many, do you have any records of the case?”
The police department pays attention to the beginning and the end of the case, such as the case of the disappearance of a young girl, it should be a big case, who is the murderer, and the process of solving the case should not be less.
However, Horn Shelley’s perfectly normal request made the Deputy Sheriff’s eyes dodge.
“Mr. Deputy Sheriff, so many people have died in this town, what are you worried about?”
Donald solemnly asked.
This case is definitely tricky!
“Yes…this, I…”
Words popped out of his mouth like he was squeezing toothpaste, Donald didn’t have time to be here with him Wasted, turned back and patted Stephanie on the shoulder, motioning her to go up.
“Now that there are so many casualties outside, Mr. Deputy Sheriff has to think about his career even if he doesn’t think about the townspeople? If you can’t catch the murderer, do you think your Deputy Sheriff can Continue to be?”
Stephanie walked over to the deputy sheriff, her voice soft, her eyes met, the latter’s eyes were dazed, and her expression suddenly became dull.
“In fact, no murderer was found in the case of the missing girl. Only one corpse was found among the 5 missing persons. In order to reduce the impact of the incident, the undying creature was discovered again. The sheriff decided to put everything On the undying creature’s head… I actually heard some bad reviews, the sheriff has been traveling with this rich man, Mr. Darle, during that time, and there are rumors that they have a relationship with a The girls have done bad things, but because of their status, they can’t be settled in the end, and the files you want have long been ‘discarded’ because of the police cleanup… God, what did I say! “
The deputy sheriff woke up after saying the last sentence, turned around and slapped his mouth again and again.
These are all police scandals.
“Is it possible that it was revenge? He is a family member of the victim of the disappearance of a young girl two years ago. He recently found out the truth, so he wants to kill these two people who may be the real murderers?”
Cut off the head and put on a mask, which is undoubtedly a revengeful act, Susannah came to a guess.
“No, if it’s just revenge, why did he bother to kill so many residents? With this guy’s ability, it’s not too easy to kill the sheriff and the rich!”
Susannah’s guess can only explain one point, and it still doesn’t make sense in other respects.
“Four directions, Deputy Sheriff, you continue to check his information, Donald, you go to the rich man’s house, Boglo, you go to the Sheriff’s house, and I will take someone to check on the girl from two years ago. The missing case information, although the file was destroyed, the police who handled the case were always there, and they finally reunited at the police station!”
Horn Shelley made the decision to split up all He mobilized his strength and wanted to find out the disappearance of the girl two years ago in the shortest possible time.
It is the biggest sticking point of this time event.
Six people are divided into three groups, Donald still chooses Stephanie.
