murder poppy

Chapter 21

Several police officers found a crowbar or other sharp tools and pried open the wooden board under Andre's feet.

The wooden board is a mechanism, and there is a large gap between it and other wooden boards, so it doesn't take too much effort to pry it open.

With the sound of "click", "click", the mystery under the floor was revealed to everyone.

The surrounding police officers gasped in horror, and they all backed away, as if there were terrible monsters hiding below.Someone pointed to the sunken space and said, "Detective... Inspector, there are many... corpses."

Andre pushed away the circle of police officers and saw the true face of the secret room.

It's not so much a secret room as it is a coffin cell.

The burned bodies were scattered and scattered like piles of straw.On the top lay the only complete corpse of a woman.There was a wound on the abdomen, two blood holes in the neck, and many burns on the body.The pale complexion showed that she should have lost too much blood and died.

Andre lifted the woman's clothes, and the white abdomen was stained with a large amount of blood, which did not match the short wound.

"The wound on her abdomen has healed a lot." Andre pulled the woman's hair away, the blood hole on the neck was abnormally red, as if the blood in the corpse was still flowing, "The wound on the neck was caused by a vampire. The blood did not stagnate, representing the vampire The venom on the teeth keeps the prey's blood flowing."

Lioness checked the body, asked the police to go to Terry's room to collect evidence, and also asked someone to call the housekeeper and Simon.

Only two police officers were left in the house to guard the door, and the space was much more spacious.

Andre checked the messy pages on the bookshelf. The notes on the pages were messy, and many words were connected together, making it difficult to read.Andre recognized a few phrases here and there.

"Divine Blood", "Nobility", "Transformation".

There is a long list after several consecutive notes.After a series of numbers, the experimental status was recorded, most of which were in blue ink, only the last bright red ink was written with the huge word "Miracle".Followed by messy handwriting.

"I will become a nobleman".

Andre handed the paper to Lyons: "He's doing experiments. We didn't come in vain."

The experimental mode is almost exactly the same as the one in the basement of the North District.

Terry did it very secretly. According to the list, he found at least a dozen experimental subjects without anyone noticing.

"Can the meaning of numbers be deciphered?" Lyons asked after flipping through his notes.

Andre: "It's a kind of password. You need to find the corresponding book. According to the number of words in the number of pages and lines, the array with the highest number of pages is 27. It's not a very thick book."

Lyons nodded and put away the list.

The police officers who went to collect the evidence brought the weapon that killed Terry.Liones compared the wound on the woman's abdomen to the hidden cross-shaped shape on the top of the dagger.

Andre saw the corresponding wound and said, "The other smell on the dagger is her."

"Is there any scabbard for you to find?" Lioness asked the policeman.

The policeman nodded, and took out a silver scabbard that matched the decorative pattern of the dagger.The inside of the scabbard was stained with dried blood.

Lyons: "Where did you find the scabbard?"

Police officer: "On the shelf in the house, it was dragged by a wooden shelf, but the dagger was gone."

"Inspector, Simon is here!"

Reines handed the scabbard to the policeman: "Got it, let them identify the corpse first."

The butler looked into the hollow in the center of the floor and exclaimed, "This...isn't this Laura?"

"The missing maid? Why did she die here?" Simon was also taken aback by the sight in front of him, and turned his face away.

Lyons came over, and Andre walked in and said, "I'm sure it's Laura."

Lyons nodded: "I have a guess."

"What if it wasn't the same person who killed Laura and who killed Terry?"

Andre thought for a moment, and felt that the proposal was not impossible: "Where is the evidence?"

"It can only be regarded as inference. The police brought the scabbard of the murder weapon. The scabbard was placed in Terry's room with great care, and there were bloodstains inside. This shows that the murderer inserted the dagger back after killing with the dagger. This It's a lot of unnecessary actions, but what if the owner of the dagger is the murderer? We listened to the servant's side story and thought it was Terry who was killed, but in fact it is very likely that Terry was injured and then killed Laura. He put the dagger with ease. Go back and dispose of the body."

"It's not impossible." Andre said, "In this way, the situation of Laura's body can also be explained. As a test subject, Laura had a dispute with Terry, so she was 'disposed' and became Teddy. spare rations."

"But why wasn't Lola drained of blood and burned like the other test subjects?"

"There is a possibility." Andre held out his hand, "The list."

Lyons took out the list, and Andre pointed to the last line of bright red font and said: "Lola is special, she is a successful 'miracle', Terry wants to become a high blood... burn."

"What burn?" Lyons asked.

Andre went to Laura and pulled the clothes off the corpse.

The woman had many burns, most scabbed and some blistered.

"She drank the blood of the gods. The blood of the high-level vampires is poison to other vampires. After drinking recklessly, there will be a short-term improvement in ability, but then the internal organs will be burned until the body is left with ashes. The burning on Terry's body Do you remember Trace, he also drank the blood of the gods. But it still can't explain who killed Terry."

"At least Luo is ruled out..." Lyons stopped, turned and said to the visitor, "Mr. Simon."

"I'm sorry to bother you." Simon forced a smile, as if he was extremely uncomfortable with the warehouse environment. "Is that so, I want to talk to you two, shall we go out and talk?"

As he spoke, he glanced at the butler who was directing the servants to help deal with the scene with taboo.

Lions and Andre looked at each other, nodded and went out.

The three walked out of the warehouse and stood in front of the bushes not far away.

Lyons: "What does Mr. Simon want to say?"

Simon hesitated for a moment, then sighed, "I wasn't in the room the night Terry was killed. I lied."

Andre narrowed his eyes and looked at Simon.

Simon immersed himself in his memories and said: "Actually, I'm not sure what happened until now. I just remember that I was really tired that night, so I rested first. After the trustee lit the usual incense, I fell into a daze. I fell asleep. Then I had a very weird dream. I dreamed that I knocked on Terry’s door. He was rolling on the ground in pain, with many burns on his body. Suddenly there was a knife in my hand. It stabbed Terry in the stomach as he came forward."

"This is not the strangest thing." Simon gasped, "The strangest thing is that when I woke up, I was not on the bed, but in Terry's room, and Terry... was indeed lying beside me, with his abdomen inserted. With a dagger."

The author says:

When I reconstructed the plot of the review outline, I almost forgot who the murderer was... Fortunately, the brain outline was detailed enough!

At present, it will maintain a weekly update of [-]!

When the hand feels better, it may be more (insert the flag)

Finally, I have the audacity to ask Starfish for a comment, and Mao Mao surrendered!
