Chapter 765 The Bloody Workhouse

call out!

The moment the ogre was about to blow his whistle, a crossbow bolt struck through the air and penetrated his throat, interrupting his final struggle.

"What a risk, what a risk!"

Mario put away his crossbow and let out a sigh of relief.

The damage die of the hand crossbow itself is very low, but including the dexterity 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 their death. As expected, they were all ogres with yellow skin and full mouths of fangs.

Mario also found three bottles of "disguise" potions from them.

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

The ogre he killed was still crying "Mom, save me" before it died.

It seems that like these ogres in the yard, that guy is also the adopted son of Freddy and his wife.

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

The first question is, where did these ogres come from?

If they were once street children and became ogres after being adopted, then who and what force turned them into this?

On the other hand, if they were ogres from the day they were born, why did Freddy and his wife adopt these savage monsters and let them live in their own home, knowing their true identity? Aren't the couple afraid of being eaten by ogres? Lose?

If the answer is yes, then wouldn't Freddy and his wife, who can frighten the ogre, be more terrifying than the ogre?

Are these two couples...especially Mrs. Freddy, who was regarded as a mother by the ogre and still begged her for help before she died, really human?

Gao Fei couldn't help but secretly regret that he and his companions should not have been too harsh and killed all three ogres in one go.

If he were left alive and interrogated, he might be able to answer the questions lingering in his mind.

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

Freddy and his wife were not at home, so the house was quiet and there was no one around, which provided unexpected convenience for intruders.

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

The bedrooms are gorgeously furnished.

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

It wasn't until he got close to the curtain that Gao Fei realized that the soft yellowing gauze curtain was actually made of dried human skin.

Lisa came over and curiously looked at the pattern on the bed sheet. Her expression became more and more strange, and she could hardly help but exclaim.

The decorative patterns on the silk sheets are clearly human faces sewn onto them, always maintaining a desperate and screaming expression.

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

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

Gao Fei suppressed his nausea and searched the bed decorated with human skin alone, but unfortunately he didn't find any valuable clues.

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

A total of 20 pieces of jewelry were found on the dressing table, with a total value of no less than 3,000 gold pounds.

There are also five bottles of magic potions in the dresser drawer.

Three of the bottles are "Disguise" potions, and two bottles are "Transformation" potions.

Lisa gave all these gains to Goofy.

Gao Fei was not very interested in jewelry, but magic potions aroused his imagination.

The ogre pretends to be a human, and drinking a bottle of "disguise" potion is enough.

Who is the higher-grade "Transformation Technique" potion prepared for?

Do Mr. Freddy and his "philanthropist" wife also have another hideous face that is unknown to everyone?

Putting away the jewelry and magic potions, Goofy took Lisa's hand and returned to the first floor.

"Are there any clues upstairs?" Claire asked Gao Fei.

"Find some jewelry, and...human leather items."

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

Claire felt a chill when she heard it, and then she became angry.

"Skinning people to make bedsheets... Freddy and his wife actually did such a perverted thing, which shows that they have no humanity!"

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

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

The traditional business Miss "Judge" refers to is the Inquisition to which she belongs. It was once popular to capture the demons and monsters wandering in human society and tie them to the stake and burn them to death in public.

For monsters that really cause harm to people, public execution is indeed a very popular method.

However, in the Inquisition in history, it was not just the harmful monsters and monsters that were arrested and grilled. There were also many so-called heretics who were sentenced to be burned at the stake simply because their beliefs did not conform to the mainstream.

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

Harsh punishments and irreparable injustices are like light and shadow, always going hand in hand; conversely, tolerant law enforcement will also bring more room for indulgence in crime, making "evil be rewarded" an empty phrase.

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

At this time, Goofy heard a whistle from behind, and when he looked back, Mario was waving to him.

"Mr. Mario, have you discovered anything new?"

"There is a secret door hidden in the cloakroom. I have pried it open. Behind the door is a tunnel. If nothing else, it should lead to the almshouse. Do you want to follow me and have a look?"

Gao Fei nodded and walked to the cloakroom.

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

Lisa followed him and asked him in a low voice: "The three ogres in the yard before called the basement of the almshouse the 'canteen'... Could this secret passage lead there?"

"Most likely." Gao Fei noticed Lisa's face turned pale and said softly, "Why don't you wait here first, and I'll ask Sister Claire to stay with you -"

Before she finished speaking, Lisa shook her head.

"I was the one who advocated the search at Freddy's house. How could you run away? Don't worry, I'm not afraid!"

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

The more he tries to persuade her, the more he will arouse her rebellious mentality, wanting to prove that her courage is not weaker than others.

Gao Fei smiled helplessly, and gave up the persuasion wisely, and just held her hand tightly.

Lisa's expression improved, and she took out a silver coin from her pocket to use the "Lighting Technique" to illuminate the dark secret passage.
