Chapter 39 The Tailor Who Clothes in Human Skin

"The eldest apprentice went to London a few years ago and has never been back. I heard that he was working for the queen, but the younger apprentice has been studying with him. I heard that this boy is his pride, and the clothes he designed It is praised as having the posture of 'the blue is better than the blue'."

"But he hasn't made me a complete dress yet." As if thinking of something, she added.

"Little apprentice... Is this called Chelter?" Jimmy Price, who was in charge of recording the news, flipped through the information booklet in his hand, and seemed to find someone who fit this description. He asked, Arnott Immediately confirmed his memory.

"Yes, I actually saw him today."

"Who?" Jimmy's voice rose instantly, and he seemed very surprised, as if she had said something unbelievable.

"Chelter," the girl scratched her head with a curious look on her face, "I called Mr. Quilling today to ask him to come over, after all, my birthday party is about to begin, but he seems to be in poor health—who would know It turned out to be dead, anyway, the person who came here today to make clothes for me is Cheert."

As soon as her words fell, the man on the opposite side pulled out a stiff and weird smile, "Miss Arnott, I have to say, your luck is really very good."

"kindness?"

"Mr. Chelter, who couldn't even get in touch with us, actually took the initiative to find you."

Quirin's shop has become a mess.

Arnott followed the men in front, with a cautious expression on his face, and his steps were slow, for fear that he would step on something like blood-stained flesh.

"Do you still insist on going to see Mr. Quillin's body?" Beverly Katz, the only woman in the forensic trio, was really worried about her, she was the only one, and Quillin's dead state was really... …It’s not that it’s scary, it’s just that the scene is too bloody for a girl of this age.

But the other party did not hesitate to move out of his family background, and wanted to see the corpse. It was not worth falling out with the Nerisnu family over such a trivial matter. However, Beverly still wanted to see such a bloody and cruel scene as a girl from the other party. Some disagree.

"I'm going." Arnott nodded, "Mr. Quirin is my very important family member. I want to see him for the last time. Even though he looks miserable at the moment, I am afraid, but just listening to your description, I may Will not be able to persist in pursuing a perverted killer."

She showed just the right amount of weakness, "I know that you should leave things like chasing murderers to you, but I naturally have my own way, which won't hinder you. In fact, I'm still a little scared, but when I think about Mr. Although his temper is not very good, he has always been a knife-mouthed and tofu-hearted person. He is the one who worries me the most when there are minor disasters in daily life. What happened to Lorelei before was also a wake-up call for me, making me think of how long my life will be in the future. , I can’t let the rest of the people who love me down.”

"So," the shy tone turned firm, "I have to go and have a look, even if it means a long nightmare, I should know what this nightmare looks like."

A nightmare indeed.

The moment he saw Quilin's body, this was the first thought that popped up in Arnott's mind.

This can hardly be called a "corpse" anymore, at least the corpse can still be seen as a human being.

But this bloody mess.Even the shape of a person cannot be seen.

Beverly turned her face slightly. This scene, no matter how many times she watched it, would make her feel uncomfortable. In fact, even the "well-informed" she felt a little disgusted the first time, "The murderer stripped Mr Quilling's skin."

"Peel it off?" Arnott's voice trembled slightly, "It shouldn't be the meaning I understand, right?"

She seemed to have left the last doubt in vain, her voice was full of disbelief, earnestness and pleading.

She didn't want to and didn't dare to admit the truth.

Beverly closed her eyes, "After preliminary investigations, we found that the murderer should have a good understanding of the human body. He cut the knife very accurately. After preliminary testing, we found that the thickness of the skin he peeled off was only about one fingernail thick. less than a distance."

Arnott just stared at the corpse like this, her vision seemed to be completely empty and out of focus.

All the flesh and blood on Quilin's old body had been stripped off, leaving only a head, and his limbs were supported by joints, but the joints without self-awareness could not support him to stand up, so this mass of flesh and blood with bones was limp. It became a puddle of mud.

His head is the only thing standing.

His jaw was buried in pink and bright red flesh, and his stubble was stained with blood.

His eyes were open, his eyes were terrified and his face was distorted, it was obvious that he was dying.

This is no longer a tragic death that can be described.

"My... my God..." Arnott said tremblingly, her voice trembling, but the expression on her face with her head buried was calm, "How...how could this be... Quilin usually doesn't Enmity with others, who... who would do such a thing?"

Beverly embraced the terrified girl in her arms. She lowered her voice and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, we will catch the murderer, and he won't have a chance to escape. The preliminary conclusion has already been made, it should be Mr. Quilin apprentice."

"Chelter?" The name popped up in her mind for the first time.

"If there is no problem with your testimony, it should be this person." Beverly explained, "Quilin lives in the villa provided by your family. I remember you said that he is too old to climb the stairs. It took a lot of hard work, so he lived on the first floor, while his disciples lived on the second floor."

Arnott, who was slightly calm, bit her lower lip, "So?"

"In the room on the second floor that no one lived in all year round, we found a dark room, and we found many shocking things in it."

"It's... what?" The girl summoned up her courage and asked with a glance. She seemed to have a premonition that what she would say next would be the truth, but it would also be news that she could not accept.

"Lots and lots of clothes...and they're made of...human skin."

As Quilin's only client, Arnott naturally knew many things that would be extremely troublesome to check, such as Quilin's clothing-making habits, his interpersonal relationship, and their residence.

It's true that Quilin has become her exclusive designer, but he should be a tailor by nature, and he has an incomprehensible love for this profession.

So although he couldn't violate the contract to design clothes for others, he found another way - he took in apprentices, opened a shop in a busy street, and guided his apprentices to make clothes for others every day, living a free and comfortable life.

When Jimmy asked her, she told the other party about Quilin's situation in great detail, and Jack also sent someone to Quilin's house - this is natural, the Nerisnu family's villa, where can ordinary people In?And now with Arnott's guarantee, their investigation will be much more convenient.

It's just that they didn't expect that they, who had no hope, would find such a scary thing in this villa.

And hearing Beverly's words, Arnott's heart trembled, and she immediately thought of Chelte who was still at her home and said she wanted to make clothes for her.

"Miss Beverly." Her voice was still a little hoarse, but at the moment she was more determined for some reason. Her voice was well controlled and fluctuated, making it difficult to doubt her intentions, "I hope you You can send someone to come home with me to have a look."

"how?"

"I probably forgot to say that when Cheerte came to make my clothes, he didn't measure the size like Quillin did. He handed over the rough design and left directly." Her lower lip turned white from being bitten, Showing the unease in her heart at the moment, "He is still at my house at the moment, Beverly...I...I am worried that when I go back, those maids who greet me every time I go home, now They all fell to the ground one by one, turning into bloody corpses."

Like Quilin, he died with a grievous death, like a long night with never-ending dawn, a nightmare full of ghosts that he could never break free from.

After hearing Arnott's words, they immediately sent people to her villa, but they were still late - before they opened the door, they smelled a strong smell of blood, this rotten smell Winding around their nostrils, like an ominous prophecy.

Arnott took out the key and opened the gate, and pushed open the gate like an iron fence. The first thing she entered was a mass of flesh and blood lying soft on the ground. The woman's beautiful long black hair was dyed red. She closed her eyes, and the bitterness on her face It seemed to be excruciatingly painful.

She recognized at a glance that this person was the maid who was talking to Chelt at that time.

At that time, Cheerte only blushed slightly and then quickly pulled away, like a young boy in love, people couldn't help but want to tease him, who would have thought that this maid with a sweet smile would only last for an hour It turned into a pool of flesh and blood on the ground.

"Is this really... massacre?" Brian Zeller carefully avoided the blood on the ground, "Miss, how many servants are there in your family?"

Before, they only knew that she was rich and powerful, but they didn't expect that she would be so rich with such a big house and such luxurious decorations. After being envious and jealous, Brian spontaneously changed his status. address her.
