Chapter 765 Bloody Workhouse

call out!
The moment the ogre was about to blow his whistle, a crossbow arrow pierced through the air and pierced his throat, interrupting the last struggle.

"It's dangerous, it's dangerous!"

Mario put away the hand crossbow and let out a long breath.

The damage dice of the hand crossbow itself is very low, but counting the agility modifier and the 4d6 sneak attack bonus, it is enough to harvest the remaining health of the guard.

The three adopted sons of Freddy and his wife revealed their true colors after death, and they were all ogres with yellow complexion and full of fangs.

Mario also found three bottles of "Disguise" potion from them.

Looking at the body of the ogre, Gao Fei couldn't help but recall the duel in the bar half a year ago.

The ogre he killed was still crying "Mom save me" before dying.

Apparently that guy, like the ogres in the yard, is also the adopted son of the Freddys.

Gao Fei couldn't help but have two questions in his mind.

The first question, where did these ogres come from?
If they were street waifs who were adopted and turned into ogres, who and what force made them so?
On the other hand, if they were ogres from the day they were born, why would the Freddy couple adopt these savage monsters and let them live in their own home if they knew their true colors? Aren’t the couple afraid of being eaten by ogres Lose?
If the answer is in the affirmative, wouldn't the Freddy couple who can deter ogres be more terrifying than ogres?
This couple... especially Mrs. Freddy, whom the ogre regarded as her mother and who was still begging her for help before she died, were they really human?
Gao Fei couldn't help but secretly regretted that he and his companions shouldn't have acted too hard and killed all three ogres in one go.

If you leave him alive and interrogate him, you may be able to answer the questions that linger in your mind.

Suppressing his messy thoughts, Goofy followed in the footsteps of Mario, Claire and Lisa and sneaked into Freddy's big house.

The Freddys were not at home, and the house was quiet without a single figure, which provided unexpected convenience for the intruders.

Mario and Claire searched the living room on the first floor, while Goofy and Lisa went up to the second floor to search the bedroom of Freddy and his wife.

The bedrooms are beautifully appointed.

A large four-poster bed was hung with light curtains and embroidered sheets.

It wasn't until he got close to the veil that Gao Fei realized that the soft and yellowed veil was actually made of dried human skin.

Lisa came over and looked at the pattern on the bed sheet curiously. The more she looked at it, the more strange her face became, and she almost couldn't help exclaiming.

The decorative pattern on the silk bed sheet is impressively sewn onto a human face, always maintaining a desperate and screaming expression.

Gao Fei himself was also frightened, but he still pretended to be calm, held Lisa's cold little hand, and gave her some encouragement.

Lisa shook his hand gratefully, turned her head and dared not look at the sheets.

Gao Fei suppressed his nausea and searched the bed decorated with human skin alone, but unfortunately found no valuable clues.

On the other side of the room, Lisa has gained a lot.

On the dressing table, a total of 20 pieces of jewelry were found, with a total value of not less than 3000 gold pounds.

In the drawer of the dressing table, there are five bottles of magic potion.

Three of them were "Disguise" potions, and two were "Transfiguration" potions.

Lisa gave all these gains to Gao Fei.

Gao Fei is not very interested in jewelry, but the magic potion aroused his association.

Ogre pretends to be human, drinking a bottle of "Disguise" potion is enough.

Who is the higher-grade "transformation" potion prepared for?
Do Mr. Freddy and his "philanthropist" wife also have another hideous face that no one knows?

Putting away the jewelry and magic potion, Gao Fei took Lisa's hand and went back to the first floor.

"Is there any clue upstairs?" Claire asked Goofy.

"Find some jewellery, and...human leather."

Gao Fei briefly described the human skin curtains and human skin sheets found upstairs.

Claire heard a chill, and then became angry.

"Flaying people's skins to make bed sheets...the Freddie couple did such a perverted thing, it shows that they are already inhumane!"

"Maybe they are not human at all, just like those ogres, they are all monsters lurking in human society." Lisa said angrily, "Every time I encounter this kind of thing, I give up the traditional business for the Inquisition." Regret."

Gao Fei and Lisa looked at each other, hesitated to speak.

The traditional business that Ms. "Adjudicator" refers to refers to the Inquisition she belongs to. It was once popular to arrest demons and ghosts mixed in human society, tie them to the stake and burn them to death in public.

For monsters that really harm people, public execution is indeed a happy way.

However, in the historical Inquisition, not only evil spirits and ghosts were arrested for barbecue, but also many so-called heretics, who were sentenced to be burned at the stake just because their beliefs were not in conformity with the mainstream.

Today, religious trials have basically withdrawn from the judicial arena, which is generally a manifestation of the progress of the times.

Severe punishments and irreparable injustices always go hand in hand like light and shadow; on the contrary, law enforcement and tolerance will bring more room for indulgence of crimes, making "evil is rewarded with evil" become an empty phrase.

"Neither let a bad person go, nor wrong a good person"-these two beautiful goals are destined to be incompatible.

At this moment, Gao Fei heard a whistle coming from behind him, and when he looked back, Mario was waving at him.

"Mr. Mario, is there anything new?"

"There is a secret door hidden in the cloakroom. I have already pried it open. Behind the door is a tunnel. If there is no accident, it should lead to the poorhouse. Would you like to go with me to have a look?"

Gao Fei nodded and walked towards the cloakroom.

The entrance to the secret passage is surprisingly wide enough for a tall ogre to pass through, and Simba the lion can easily get in.

Lisa followed and asked him in a low voice: "The three ogres in the yard before called the basement of the workhouse the 'dining hall'... This secret passage, doesn't it lead there?"

"Probably yes." Gao Fei noticed that Lisa's face was turning pale, and said softly, "Why don't you wait here first, and I'll let Sister Claire stay with you—"

Before she finished speaking, Lisa shook her head again and again.

"I insisted on searching Freddy's house, how could you run away! Don't worry, I'm not afraid!"

Of course Gao Fei could see that this stubborn girl who had never experienced any storms was just trying to stay calm.

The more I try to persuade her, the more it will arouse her rebellious psychology, and she wants to prove that her courage is not weaker than others.

Smiling helplessly, Gao Fei tactfully gave up persuading her, and just held her hand tightly.

Lisa's complexion improved, and she took out a silver coin from her pocket to bless the "light technique", illuminating the dark secret passage.
