Chapter 84 Corpses and Abandoned Churches (1)
Green couldn't help but gave the old grandma a deep look, and being able to call the director 'Little Rudd' showed that this old grandma's identity was probably extraordinary.
But these are all internal affairs of the Lucca County Police Department, and he didn't intend to investigate. He nodded slightly in thanks, and then walked straight into the police department.
Inside was a large open office. There were more than a dozen police officers in uniform or plain clothes, but nothing happened. They were drinking coffee and reading the newspaper. They found that Green and Laura came in and they all looked over. They were dressed in strange clothes. The uniform of the bureau immediately looked away, looking a little scared, but also relieved. It seems that the recent bizarre cases of continuous digging of corpses have put a lot of pressure on them, but they are not at all involved in extraordinary and bizarre cases. Dare to investigate, can only be anxious.
Following the old grandmother's instructions, Green went straight through the aisle, turned left, and immediately saw a sign that said the Director's Office.
Green stopped, Laura took a step and knocked on the door very colorfully. Hearing the sound of coming in, he turned the door handle of the office and took a step back to let Green go in first.
Since joining the special bureau, Green also found that Laura has changed a lot, from a profiteer template who desperately wants money to a template of a small civil servant, especially when facing Green, who is his immediate boss, there is a 'dogleg' attribute bonus. .
The director's office is not small. Behind the huge oak desk in the middle sits a middle-aged policeman with a fat brain. He is drinking coffee while reading a newspaper. When he looks up and sees two strange young people, he can't help but be stunned for a moment, but in the next moment, he sees The uniforms they were wearing, they immediately put away the newspaper and walked out from behind the desk, smiling enthusiastically: "You are Mr. Wilson, this is Miss Claudy! Our Lucca County Police Department has been looking forward to it for a long time. The two are here."
Because the Special Bureau had sent an official document before, this Director Rudd knew the identities of Green and Laura.
And this time Green and Laura came to be the savior of the Director Rudd. He could finally put the blame on those terrifying grave-digging and corpse-stealing cases, which made him relieved and treated Green and the two Also very enthusiastic.
The three chatted for a while, and Green got the first-hand case file and learned the latest situation. Just last night, the Lucca County Police Department unexpectedly found a suspected stolen church while searching an abandoned church in the southeast corner of the county. corpse!
Green and Laura were all refreshed when they heard the news, because the first case of lost corpses had appeared ten days ago, and no lost corpses had ever been found. situation, maybe this will be an opportunity to find the corpse-stealing sorcerer.
Green immediately asked to see the body, of course Chief Rudd would not refuse, and immediately took Green and Laura to the morgue of the police station in person.
Originally, Rudd wanted to hand over this matter to his subordinates, but seeing that Green and Laura were so young, especially that Green was a noble officer, made him change his mind, for fear of being neglected and misunderstood by Green. Write something and nothing is enough for him to drink a pot.
From a police academy student without any background to the chief of the Lucca County Police Department, Rudd is not only shrewd but also very cautious. He asked for the key to the morgue and came to the basement of the police station, where the morgue is located.
Even if it was not dark, the basement was still dark. Rudd lit a gas lamp, and the dim yellow light flickered, making it more and more eerie. A split wooden door is facing the stairs of the basement, with the sign of 'mortuary' hanging on it, and there are two large locks on the door, one old and the other new. A lock was added to the morgue.
"Whoa kacha"
With the sound of the key being unlocked, the two wooden doors were pushed open, and the three entered the morgue.
The area inside is not large. There is an aisle in the middle, and there are drawer-type wooden cabinets on both sides with numbers written on them.
Rudd came to the wooden cabinet No. 1, stretched out his hand and pulled it away, and suddenly white air gushed out, and a cold air spread out from it. This is an enchanted item with a low temperature, so that the corpse will not be corrupted when stored in it, and the corpse will be preserved as it is.
In the frozen wooden cabinet lay the corpse of a man in his 40s with a thin and black face. It should have been buried for some time. Before it was put into the frozen wooden cabinet, the corpse had already rotted.
Green turned on the vision of death, hoping to find some clues from this corpse, as well as a chance to find the remnant of the deceased. It is a pity that there is no harvest at all. After the corpse has been processed, nothing has been found. Even the remnants of spiritual energy are very small, and the remnant soul of the deceased has completely dissipated.
Generally speaking, even after a long time, there will be a trace of remnant soul left in the body, and this corpse has obviously been treated with some kind of witchcraft, and even the last trace of the remnant soul has been washed away, just like a A puppet that never lived.
Green frowned slightly, always feeling that there seemed to be something wrong with the corpse, but he couldn't tell the specifics.
He was silent for a moment and said to Director Rudd: "I want to go to the scene where the body was found, is it convenient?"
Rudd's face changed slightly: "No problem, but there are some situations over there... I can't say it well. You are all experts in this field. In short, be careful, it's very evil there." After that, he took Green and Laura away. I went to the morgue, went back to the first floor of the police station, called a police officer and took them to the scene.
The policeman who was arrested was named Tam. He looked bitter and unhappy, but he didn't dare to disobey the order under the stern gaze of the chief, let alone offend Green and Laura, the two special officers from the bureau. Poor', can only bite the bullet and lead the way.
Because the county seat of Lucca County is not large, the abandoned church where the body was found is not too far from the police station, and it took less than five minutes to reach an almost abandoned slum by carriage. A gigantic building that rises above its surroundings stands out in the low slum, the high dome and spires indicate the church's former glory, and the fresco reliefs of 'ancient trees', 'vines' and 'druids' on the walls of the church indicate The attribution of the faith of this church - this is a church of the **** of nature!
It makes sense that this large-scale church was abandoned.
Since the Industrial Revolution, the Church of Nature's anti-industrial methods have become more and more radical, especially in large cities in the Kingdom of Lorenzo, they have carried out several violent actions of 'destroying factories' and 'protecting nature', and assassinated many big noble capitalists. The Church of Nature was completely labeled as a 'terrorist cult'. Although the kingdom did not explicitly ban it, it used various means to suppress it.
"Is it a remnant of the Church of Nature again?" Green stood in front of the abandoned church, his face slightly solemn as he recalled Minster College. The child's church does not have any goodwill, it can even be said to be disgusting!
