The Death Plan of a Hero of the Empire

"Well, we did gather together to hold an animal cruelty party tonight." The suspect who answered most positively said, "This is what we planned a long time in advance. The five of us gathered together tonight, It's just killing animals for fun, it really has nothing to do with any cult, and it's not holding any ceremony!"

"Where did you have the party?"

"In the basement of an abandoned warehouse..."

"Did you spend some time ago to hire Aken Manpower Company to catch stray animals for you?"

"Yes." The suspects admitted frankly.

"Why do it?"

"Because... stray animals have more tenacious vitality and more intense reactions, so they are more interesting to play with..." A suspect replied.

Lu Nier felt a little disgusted by these people. He is not a person who likes small animals, and he has no idea of ​​actively protecting stray cats and dogs, but this kind of behavior of killing innocent lives just for fun makes him feel a little nausea.

This kind of thinking is obviously not his own. From the faces of Li Jie and Alonya, it is obvious that they are disgusted with this group of suspects.

"Did you know that animals have missing internal organs?"

"I know." The suspect didn't deny it either.

"But it has nothing to do with me." "It has nothing to do with me!" "I don't know why the internal organs are lost..."

"Be quiet, the internal organs are lost, how can you not know? Didn't you kill them?"

"This... when we usually play, we will drown in water, burn to death, strangle to death with a rope, stone to death, and directly boil to death in hot water..." A suspect said, "But there is nothing, it is to dig They're visceral!"

"Is there something wrong with your brains?" Li Jie asked suddenly, her emerald green pupils were clearly angry, "What good does cruelty to animals do to you?!"

"The good thing...of course it's fun!" The suspect replied as a matter of course, "You don't know, watching them struggle and scream in pain, it's really decompressing, and I feel very relaxed..."

"Shut up." Alonia patted the table, "Don't change the subject, the internal organs are lost, why don't you know?"

"Because... After we play with dead animals, we usually throw them into a trash can, and then the people from Aken Human Resources will help us dispose of those animal corpses." The suspect said, "Usually we The corpses are thrown away in turn, and we don’t care about them after we lose them. If the people from Aken Manpower Company asked us what happened to the internal organs, we would not know that the internal organs of animals were dug out..."

When the suspect answered, Lu Nier observed their expressions and found that their expressions were not unusual.

"Which trash can did you throw them in?"

"Right in the middle of the 127th block, the trash can under the street light..."

"What is your meeting tonight?"

"Just like before, let's play with animals. We have nothing to hide. By the way..." As if thinking of something, the suspect said, "Haven't you caught someone yet? It's his turn to dispose of the corpse today. To catch him?"

"Not yet, but soon, the internal organs of the corpses you threw away today are all intact, right?"

"Absolutely intact! Our game today is to stick a needle to death. Although it may look ugly, the internal organs are absolutely fine..."

After that, Alonia interrogated some more questions, and then temporarily detained them, of course, on the grounds of "suspected to hold a cult ceremony".

"It's getting late..." Alonia said, "Let's go see if the fifth suspect has returned home, and check the place where they met and the trash can where the corpse was thrown, and then we will start today." Rest, as for these people... let them stay in prison for one night first."

"it is good."

Lu Nier and Li Jie have no objections.

So the three set off again, and Angela followed Lu Nier as usual, asking about the results of the interrogation.

Before Lunier could speak, Alonia spoke first.

"Hey, in front of me, isn't it good for you to ask so directly?"

"Captain Alonia." Angela said politely, "Since the case is about to be solved, as a reporter, if I know the details of the case, I will describe the case more excitingly in the report and solve it." The three people involved in this case will become even more famous."

"Famous? What I hate the most is being famous." Alonia didn't save any face, "I let you participate in some operations because my team members trust you. You know, letting outsiders participate in investigation tasks, But it's a violation."

"But as an investigator's assistant, it's only natural to know some necessary information."

"Assist? Have you been of any help to the case so far?"

"..."

Angela didn't know what to say, indeed, she didn't make any obvious and effective contribution to this investigation.

"Forget it... In short, I am not targeting you personally. If I acted alone, then I would have told you to leave. Who told me that I am now the captain, Lu Nier, what do you want to tell you about her? Just talk to her, but if there is any problem with this mission due to her, you will be fully responsible."

"Yes." Lunier replied.

"Okay, the trash can is here, count the time, it is estimated that the suspect has already thrown away the animal carcass, and has gone home now."

Alonya walked to the trash can, took out a pair of white gloves from her pocket, and put them on.

Lu Nier, Li Jie, and Angela also gathered around, staring at the trash can.

"I'm going to open it."

Alonya said, and then lifted the lid of the trash can.

"Well……"

The faces of the people present all changed. In the trash can, there were indeed dead animals, some of which were puppies and kittens, and their bodies were covered with dense blood holes, but...

The most astonishing thing is that there are gaps in their bellies, as if they were disemboweled by someone.

Alonia reached out and took out the dead body of a kitten. Li Jie and Angela turned pale, showing disgusted expressions.

Lu Nier was a little resistant to this kind of scene, so he didn't feel disgusted, so he observed the kitten's body.

The dense blood holes on the body are probably the "play" that the suspects said. As for the gash on the belly...

Alonya opened her hand to the kitten's belly, and then looked in a place with better light.

"It's gone. Although the intestines and stomach are still there... but the heart and liver... have been poached."

"Does that mean we're late?"

"It may be, the person who dug out the internal organs may be the fifth suspect who disposed of the corpse, or there may be another person..."

While talking, Alonia took out a few more corpses and checked them separately.

Li Jie and Angela had already turned their eyes away and made a retching sound.

"Okay, put it away first, these are evidences."

Alonia took out a few more bags, unfolded them, filled them with the dead animals, and handed them to the other three.

"You take it well."

After checking the trash can, several people carried the bags containing the animal carcasses, and then walked all the way to the place where they met.

This place is not very far from the trash can, it can even be considered very close, maybe that's why the corpse was thrown into that trash can.

The place of this meeting is nothing special, but there are all kinds of weird tools and facilities that resemble torture tools.

It is estimated that they usually use these things to kill animals.

There are some books on the shelf, but they are not serious books. Just looking at the title, you can tell that they are strange things.

"Found something good."

Alonya suddenly reached out and picked up a book on the shelf, and shook it at the others.

Lu Nier looked at it, the title of this book is...

"Song of Suffering".

第 114

Chapter 113 Eat Ru Like Ru (7)

"what is this?"

When Lu Nier saw the title of this book, he suddenly had a premonition.

This stuff should have something to do with cults.

"A classic published by a cult contains some messy things, most of which are poems written in a hurry, but there is no actual ritual content." Alonia explained.

"What's so good about this kind of thing?" Angela asked puzzled.

"Convict them." Lunier replied for Alonia, "Under the laws of the empire, animal cruelty is not illegal, it can only be regarded as a personal hobby, so based on this alone, they are completely innocent, but the party It is different if there are cult classics in the place, which means that they have new evidence, even if they have not read the book, it is an illegal act to keep cult classics privately."

"That's right, this book alone is enough for them to get in." Alonia stuffed the "Song of Pain" back on the shelf.

Immediately afterwards, the room used for the meeting was searched thoroughly, but apart from the book related to the cult, there was nothing else related to the cult.

"It seems that they are not lying, and they really don't seem to have anything to do with the cult."

"That's right, this case is settled like this." Alonia said, "Just catch the fifth person and it's over."

"But, what about the missing internal organs?" Lunier asked.

"That's none of our business. Our task is to investigate the reason for the disappearance of the animals. Now we have found out the reason for the disappearance. We have also captured the people involved in the case and found their possession of cult books. The case has been perfectly solved. "Alonia said confidently, "As for the missing internal organs, I will report it, but whether to continue the investigation depends on what the bureau says. In short, as far as the characters we have received, it has been completed."

For Alonia's statement, although Lunier felt that something was wrong, he still agreed with this approach.

As things stand, their task is really just to investigate the reasons for the disappearance of animals.

"But don't you think it's strange that the internal organs are missing?" Angela said suddenly, "Maybe there is someone who wants to use these internal organs to hold some evil sacrifices..."

"So I will report it." Alonia said, "Just like you can let us accept your entrusted investigation with the reason of a missing animal, the bureau will definitely pay attention to reporting this kind of thing, I guess After the report, another group of investigators will soon investigate the disappearance of internal organs."

"What if it's late?" Angela asked.

"It's too late." Alonia said, "This is not an emergency, it's just some animal offal, not even a direct blood sacrifice."

Angela didn’t speak any more.

Lu Nier felt that Angela's reaction was a bit weird, as if... She really hoped to continue to find out the reason for the missing internal organs as soon as possible.

"Okay, let's go catch the fifth person and go back."

With that said, Alonia set off first, and the others followed.

Arriving in front of the fifth person's house, Alonia asked first, but his family replied that he hadn't come home yet, and they were a little worried, saying that this person had never come back so late.

"Could it be that we caught four people and frightened him away?" Lu Neil speculated.

"It's not impossible." Alonya thought for a while, "Well, let's divide into two groups to stay here tonight, and wait for that person to come back. There is a hotel nearby. I will rent a room. One group will stay here first. How about taking a break inside and switching shifts every hour?"

"I have no objection." "Yes." Lu Nier and Li Jie replied.

"Wait... who am I with?"

Angela asked, pointing at herself.

"Do you still need to ask? You and Lu Nier are in a group."

"Ok."

Angela didn't resist much, and nodded in agreement.

So the four people took turns to monitor the fifth person, waiting for him to go home before arresting him.

The group of Alonia and Li Jie monitored first, so Lu Nier took Angela to the small hotel and opened a room.

double.

Walking into the room, Lu Nier wasn't very sleepy. After all, he had the spirit of a D-rank in his body. As far as his mental state was concerned, although he was a little sleepy now, he could still control it.

On the contrary, Angela might have been a little sleepy after a busy day, so she fell on the bed and rested.

Lu Nier didn't bother her, and lay on the bed with his eyes closed.

After more than ten minutes, Angela suddenly spoke.

"Hey, Runier... can I call you that?"

"can."

"Remember that I wanted to say something to you before, but didn't say it?"

"remember."

"I actually want to say..." Angela turned over and lay on her side, staring at Lu Nier, "I know this case is not that simple."

"What do you mean?" Lu Nier was a little interested.

"In fact, since the successful report on the vicious dog case, I have naturally awakened to become a journalist. The special quality I have acquired is that I can predict events."
