Red Moon Returns
Chapter 411: Unraveling the Mystery
Lord Jackson is a leader who is very close to the people and is very concerned about agricultural production. When he was young, he often visited farmland and farms outside the city, including the farm of the old Swain family.
The old ghoul's wife had just died at that time, and he was living with his son and daughter on his deceased wife's farm. How could a ghoul know anything about agriculture? He was so clumsy. In the end, it was the city lord who personally guided him, so the farm had no harvest that year.
Since then, the two parties have become acquainted. The city lord does not know the identities of the Swain family and just regards them as a few familiar civilians.
After that, Stephen Swain left here with his teacher, the mystic Leonardo. When he returned here many years later, the city lord actually knew her, knew that she was a mystic and an acquaintance, so he took great care of her, so that The knights in the city defense force also looked at her differently.
"So I don't want to believe that Jackson has a problem, but I don't have any concerns because of him." Dr. Swain sighed, "Nick's body is indeed missing, which makes me have to doubt him. Do you think he wants to Resurrection of his dead son, that’s why you did such a crazy thing?”
The film and television dramas in the previous life have already filmed all the possibilities that can be imagined, so I'm sorry, dear masters.
Lynch sighed and said seriously: "I guess this is the reason, at least related to this, and... the other party is probably close to success."
"Yes." Miss Diana agreed, "If his purpose is to resurrect the child, he cannot use the child's corpse as an experiment. Instead, he must hide his purpose. The best way to hide it is to keep the corpse in It should be in the right place, so there is no need to bother them, so once the body is dug out at the risk of being discovered, it means that it can be officially implemented.”
"Then we must speed up." Doctor Swain said, "Let's start from two aspects as we discussed yesterday. As for the main envoy, since the city lord's suspicion is getting bigger and bigger, let's target him for the time being. And the core element of the ghoul disease is really troublesome..."
"Wait a minute." Lynch raised his hand to interrupt Dr. Swain, "Since the other party may have dug up the body of the city lord's son, can't you track him down by smelling the smell?"
Dr. Swain looked at Lynch sideways and said dissatisfiedly: "I always feel that your words are full of offense."
"No, no, absolutely not. That's your illusion." Lynch laughed dryly, "Aren't you sensitive to smells? You could smell it half a month ago."
"Indeed, it's a pity that it's impossible to track him because of the interference of his own smell." Dr. Swain frowned and was silent for a moment. "We really can't find the ghoul. We can also find the source of all this."
"What's the meaning?"
"That's how it all happened." Swain explained, "If it's poisoning, we need to find the poison, if it's a curse, we need to find the method of the curse, if it's a ritual, we need to find the ritual process..."
Miss Diana showed a look of astonishment: "The information of the core elements is often contained in the source, right. But this is not easier than finding the ghoul, at least that gentleman has a bigger goal."
"That's why I didn't say it before." Dr. Swain nodded. "As for the core elements, I will think of ways to deal with them from Leonard and the four sick soldiers, and Jackson..."
As she spoke, she took a deep look at the housekeeper Rocky and the servants who were carefully patrolling.
Lin Qi asked thoughtfully: "Do you know each other?"
"certainly."
"It's not that I can't ask him, I just have to find a good excuse so that they can't see that something is wrong." Lynch and the three ladies murmured for a while, "I remember the travelers who were killed by ghouls before. Terry said buried? "
"Yes, they are buried here." The doctor's eyes lit up, "This is a good excuse."
Miss Diana added: "And asking him directly makes it even more clear that we do not suspect them."
"Let's go together." Lin Qi said, "We go in and out with you. This should be no secret in the city. There is no need to hide it."
So, the five people discussed for a while, and then walked out from behind the tree in a lively manner, as if they had just walked around the city wall, and headed towards the cemetery.
"Stop, who are you and what's your purpose?" Immediately a patrolling citizen stopped them, "Are you spies of the ghouls? Let me tell you, we are experts in identifying ghouls. We can tell you at a glance. identity of."
"Aba Aba."
Lynch didn't understand anyway, so he just pretended to be stupid, but the other party immediately saw Dr. Swain and smiled: "Good morning, Ms. Swain. It turns out you brought them here. I thought they were ghouls."
"Don't worry, they are not ghouls, they are travelers. They are my former friends who came to me to play. There happened to be something wrong in the city." Dr. Swain said with a serious face as always, "You guys What are you doing here? You’re not trying to rob a tomb, right? Butler Rocky, you’re here too, what’s going on?”
"The city lord cares about everyone, let us protect our ancestors from being desecrated by those damn monsters." The middle-aged butler motioned to the patrolling people to start working, and he pulled the five people aside, "Fortunately, ghoul You shouldn't dare to get so close to the city. You are... Oh, those dead travelers are over there. I'll ask them to help dig them out, so don't do it yourself. "
"Well, thank you very much. But why did Jackson suddenly think of the cemetery? Wasn't everything normal the day before yesterday?"
"Actually, Mr. Jackson also made a temporary decision." The housekeeper looked around and whispered, "Mr. Jackson missed the young master yesterday. Looking at his portrait, he suddenly thought of the young master's grave. He was worried that those damned people would be killed. The monster was destroyed, so I found a reason to mobilize people to patrol. Alas, the young master's incident was a big blow to the adults. The adults just came out a few days ago and decided to forget the past, and also found someone to take away the young master's things. I moved it into the basement and locked it up, but I remembered it again yesterday.”
Um?
Lin Qi's eyes flashed as he listened. This is probably the truth about the four South Gate soldiers who left their posts and... moved all the relics to the basement? This isn't like forgetting the past.
Thinking in his mind, Lynch whispered beside the three ladies: "Do you think he is telling the truth?"
"Yes, obviously, unless he has received professional training." Miss Diana did not hesitate, "I'm afraid he is really just an executor and knows nothing."
"Then this locked basement is fine. I think I can sneak in if I have the chance..."
"It's dug."
The cheers from the side interrupted the loud conspiracies of Lynch and the others, and several travelers saw the light of day again.
Lynch's mouth twitched. A corpse that had been buried for many days was not good for his appetite. He was not interested in getting close to him, just in case the other party was as angry as Natalie. But he had to finish the excuse he made with tears in his eyes, so the group could only accompany Dr. Swain to the body.
They were all naked corpses, and like Kemit, they had shocking huge wounds everywhere. The coolies working around him were cursing the cruelty of the ghouls, but Dr. Swain was very focused on turning over the corpses with the patrolman's weapon, not disgusting at all, and even a little hungry.
Lynch looked very professional next to him, pretending to look at it and nodding frequently. However, as he looked at it, he suddenly discovered a problem, grabbed Dr. Swain, pulled her aside, and asked in a low voice:
"Who examined the body?"
"I tested two of them, what happened?"
"Don't you have the custom of doing autopsies during autopsies here?"
"Huh? Why do we need to dissect?"
"I have a suggestion. Leonard, Kemit, the four guards at the south gate, and the corpses of these suspected experimental subjects may be dissected." Lynch looked back at the rotting corpses, sighing secretly at this era. The autopsy was too unprofessional, "Check the stomach contents, maybe what we are looking for is inside."
"source?"
"It's possible."
