Chapter 349: Mountain Village Monster
"Master Lin, have you discovered anything?"
The security captain came over and said, "We really didn't find anything."
"Even the victim's body has not been found."
He continued: "The victims were a family of three, including their daughter."
The security captain clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth.
"If I catch the murderer."
"You must give him a good beating!"
"You can do this!"
Lin Chen said: "Calm down."
Anger cannot solve any problems and will also affect your judgment.
Lin Chen walked into the house and looked around.
That's ok.
A family of three were in the house at the time, and then the murderer broke in and committed a brutal crime.
"Ding~"
The system voice sounded.
"Current mission: Find the victim."
The mini map unfolded, and a blue dotted line appeared, guiding Lin Chen to search for the victim's body in the nearby woods.
Lin Chen immediately said to the security captain: "Follow me."
Finished.
He entered the woods without looking back.
The security captain immediately called two team members, and then quickly followed Lin Chen.
The situation in the forest is overgrown with weeds and bushes, and the situation is complicated. If you are not careful, you will fall down or even get lost.
The security captain followed Lin Chen and asked, "Master Lin, what happened?"
he noticed.
Lin Chen walked forward very purposefully.
There was no hesitation or pause on the way.
It was as if he had been here before and was extremely familiar with it.
After walking in the woods for ten minutes, Lin Chen stopped.
This is deep in the woods.
However, Lin Chen saw several pools of blood on the ground.
"this……"
The security captain and team members were shocked when they saw the blood on the ground and some pieces of flesh.
How did Lin Chen find this place?
He didn't pause at all along the way.
Went here directly!
It's like he knows everything.
Lin Chen's eyes swept around here, and finally found dead wood on the ground and a glowing mud pit.
That was a prompt given to him by the system about items that could be interacted with.
"The tree trunk in front."
Lin Chen said: "There is something in the mud pit next to the tree trunk."
The security captain and team members looked at each other.
trunk?
Mud puddle?
What could be there?
You know, the tree trunk is not big, one person can hug it and rub it.
But when the security captain walked over and bent down to look into the tree trunk.
boom!
The security captain felt like he was struck by lightning.
Both eyes were widened.
He was so frightened that his face turned pale and he fell to the ground.
Because, he saw a pair of eyes!
Or rather, a human face!
"Come here quickly!"
The security captain shouted in horror: "That child!"
The child of a family of three was found.
Her body was stuffed into a tree trunk.
Her parents were buried in the mud pit next to them.
After the bodies were exhumed, someone immediately came forward to conduct autopsies.
Just look at the appearance.
They all had missing parts on their bodies, as if something had bitten them.
There are still teeth marks on it.
For more detailed data, the body needs to be taken away for investigation.
The security captain walked to Lin Chen's side. He was still in shock.
Only by standing next to Lin Chen could he feel a little bit safer.
"What kind of monster is this that can be so cruel and treat a corpse like this?"
The security captain became even more angry.
At the same time, he also admired Lin Chen very much.
"As expected of Master Lin, we found their bodies in just half an hour."
"If we were to come here, we wouldn't be able to find him even one day."
Lin Chen looked at the security captain and asked him, "Did you smell it?"
"What do you smell?"
The security captain looked confused and sniffed hard.
"There's nothing."
Lin Chen said slowly: "The smell of sulfur and ammonia."
"What!"
The security captain was shocked, and the victim's neighbors also said that they smelled sulfur and ammonia when the crime occurred last night.
Lin Chen followed the smell and walked to a tree.
This tree is unremarkable.
But Lin Chen saw a broken branch, and the trunk also had traces of being rubbed.
The broken branches were nearly three meters high.
Lin Chen said: "The size of the monster is more than three meters."
"And he has tough skin or a powerful exoskeleton."
Three meters high.
Hard skin.
Beast?
Obviously it's impossible.
How could there be such a powerful beast in an area where humans live?
So there is only one possibility.
monster!
The system sound sounded again.
"Current mission: looking for more clues."
The blue dotted line guided Lin Chen back to the village.
There are no valuable clues to be found here.
So returning to the village to investigate is the best choice.
He returned to the village and found nothing useful in the victim's house.
Lin Chen went to show off his neighbors.
The person who lives opposite is an old woman.
Her hearing is not very good, but her sense of smell is fairly sharp.
She was also the one who said she heard some noises and smelled a strange smell.
"You can hear the noise even if you have poor hearing?"
Doesn't that mean there was a lot of noise last night?
Lin Chen immediately went to the neighbor's house a little further away.
The two houses were about 30 to 40 meters apart because there was a large vegetable field in between.
When Lin Chen came to the door, he saw a little girl playing in the living room.
There was also an old woman sitting on the sofa, and she seemed to be almost asleep.
Lin Chen knocked on the door.
The old woman didn't wake up.
But the little girl noticed Lin Chen.
The little girl asked, "Big brother, are you here to look for grandma? Grandma is sleeping."
"Last night, Jingjing's house was so noisy."
"I also heard Jingjing crying, but grandma didn't let me go to look for Jingjing."
Lin Chen asked her, "What else did you hear?"
"I also heard my uncle yelling, get out, you monster."
"Then there was no sound."
These were also clues of little value.
The security captain came over and asked Lin Chen: "Master Lin, is there any news?"
"Not yet."
Lin Chen said: "Why are young and middle-aged people so rare here?"
The security captain explained: "They all went to work in other places."
"There are mostly old people and children in the village."
Lin Chen went to visit other villagers in the village and asked them if they had encountered any strange things recently.
You don't know until you ask. Once asked, Lin Chen learned that in the past month.
Many people lost chickens, ducks, geese, and even two dogs.
"It seems that this monster is not the first time to come here."
"I guess the monster will appear again in the next few nights."
The security captain's eyes lit up and he immediately said: "I will arrange for the team members to take turns to guard!"
Lin Chen nodded, this is also a good idea.
Lin Chen walked to the door of the little girl's house, picked up a stone, and put it on the fence.
The security captain was a little puzzled by Lin Chen's behavior.
"Master Lin, why did you put a stone on the fence?"
Lin Chen smiled and said, "It looks good."
The security captain looked confused.
But Lin Chen didn't say much, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Instead, he went to discuss the plan with other team members.
