The final gentleman

Walking in this old and narrow stairwell with super oversized leather shoes, each step can lead to at least five steps. Based on the comprehensive clues collected and deduced so far, he finally stopped in front of a certain guest room.

Facing the old-fashioned door lock in front of him, the detective inserted his little finger directly.

Click~ at the same time as the door is opened,

Both detectives had their arms tucked into the lining of their trench coats, making as if they were drawing guns.

But the picture that appeared in front of them was very different from what they expected.

Two middle-aged men over forty who had taken off their clothes were lying on the bed, using the quilts to cover their bodies as much as possible, with small cards placed on the bedside.

Before the two police detectives could say anything, the woman jumped in and said, "We have no monetary transactions, just normal exchanges between friends."

The man put on his pants as quickly as possible, trying to hide his embarrassed expression as much as possible.

The two police detectives quickly scanned the scene in the house with confusion on their faces.

"Did you lose one floor? Shouldn't you?"

The police detective paid no attention to the two people who might be conducting illegal transactions in front of him, turned around and continued to climb the stairs towards the upper floor.

But when they opened the door to the guest room, they still saw the same scene in front of them. The woman who had lost her footing and was putting on her underwear screamed out in fright when the police detective arrived again.

"Ah! Officer, if you have anything to say, just tell me..."

By this time, the two police detectives had already realized something was wrong.

Instead of walking up the stairs, he stepped into the guest room where the woman who lost her footing was, climbed directly out the window, and climbed to the next level through rock climbing.

Because it is no longer a liminal space, the circulation of the stairs is broken.

When they climbed into the guest room where the target was located, the room was empty.

The instant noodle box placed by the bedside was still steaming, indicating that he had just left. Octopus slime similar to that found in the truck compartment could also be found on the pillow.

The window was open, rainwater drifted in, and there were still tiny footprints left on the window edge.

It seemed that while the two police detectives were checking the room downstairs, the suspicious tenant living here had already left.

The two detectives did not jump out of the window and chase them out;

They knew very well that if the other party had someone who could change the space, even if they chased him out now, he would be lost in the complicated lanes of the urban village. It was better to stay here and collect clues.

Under the illumination of light,

The "faces" of the police detectives were finally revealed. They had no facial skin, instead they had a linen structure.

The entire linen cloth serves as skin covering their heads, and hair grows through the gaps at the top of the linen cloth, which is why their faces cannot be seen clearly at night.

On the front of the linen, at the position corresponding to the "face", there is dark red blood emerging.

Although the blood is floating, it is always stable into a Chinese character.

The face of the police detective who is responsible for clue investigation and breath tracking has the word "Detective" reflected on his face.

The police detective who followed him throughout the whole process and rarely spoke showed the word "urgent".

He walked through each area carefully, scratched all suspicious areas with his fingers, and applied all kinds of dust on the face. The blood will wrap the dust and perform relevant analysis.

Finally, the two police detectives sat on the edge of the bed,

"It's a lot more troublesome than expected. It seems that the fugitive this time is not easy. Even if we ask the police department to block the main roads around the county, we can't stop such fugitives. They can slip away by changing the space a little. .

This case seems to be difficult to solve, so let's go back first. "

The anxious face who barely spoke during the whole process gave his opinion at this time: "Do you still remember the malignant cases that were classified as 'Level II' three years ago? One of the incidents seems to have occurred in this urban village. I just suddenly thought of it."

Zhazi's face tilted his head, "Huh? When you say that, I still have some impression... At that time, an average of one mutilated corpse was found here every day, and a commander personally handled it.

The investigation lasted for a month, and a large number of police forces continued to be deployed.

Although we talked about catching the suspect in the end, secretly everyone knew that the suspect was just a scapegoat hired by the chief to protect his reputation. "

He continued with an anxious face, "I vaguely smelled something unusual when I was walking down the stairs. The owner of this hotel seems to have some shady secrets. Do you want to check it out?"

"That's fine... Anyway, there's nothing wrong when we go back. Let's check it out! But the higher ups are definitely not willing to overturn the case. If something is really found, we will have to digest it ourselves."

"It doesn't matter. I didn't become a police officer just for promotion and salary increase."

When the two police detectives were walking down the corridor, the boss, who was hunched over and wearing only a ripped vest, came over on flip-flops and said, "We couldn't arrest anyone? What a pity."

At first I thought they were a family of three from abroad visiting our Yuyuan County. Although I was a little suspicious, I didn't take it to heart.

I should have been smarter and informed you earlier. "

The grim-faced police detective put his hand on the boss's shoulder and said, "It's okay, you have been very cooperative. It was our own lack of ability that caused the other party to withdraw early.

By the way, can I sit at your house for a while? I want to ask you about the specific situation of the gringo so that we can fill in the report. "

"Okay, there's paper and pen at the counter. Let's go there and talk in detail."

"No...the counter is a public area after all. Our conversation may be leaked, so it's better to talk at your home."

"Officer, how about we talk in this room? My wife and children are already asleep. If we go in and talk, we might disturb them."

At this time, the palm that fell on the boss's shoulder suddenly became stronger, "Don't you understand what I mean? In addition to investigating the gringo, we also want to investigate the situation here.

My partner said that he felt a little uncomfortable when he stepped into your old building, so please cooperate with me. "

"No problem, please come with me. Do you need to call up my wife and children for questioning?"

"No, I just need to ask you some questions for now."

Going deeper along the corridor to the right of the counter, the hotel owner's residence is at the far end, with a hanging curtain made of black Bodhi seeds hanging at the door.

A large number of red candles of different lengths and sizes are scattered in every corner of the room.

A shrine carved from ebony is placed on the most conspicuous center wall. Various twisted and weird images are painted on the hollow wooden boards, and there are also couplets engraved on both sides of the statue.

≮Sending a son to the world, passing on Xiang Dingxin to have a successor≯

≮Avalokitesvara applies jade dew to the people, blessing them with longevity and disaster-free≯

This couplet points to the ‘Send-off Guanyin’, but the statue placed in the middle is quite strange.

The main body of the statue is indeed a round and wide "Guanyin", but she is not wearing any clothes, and she seems to be holding a baby in her arms and in a breastfeeding posture.

If you observe carefully, you will find that the baby is not held in the arms but stuck in the arms. To be precise, the baby is not even an independent individual, but more like a proliferative tissue of Guanyin.

"A consecrated statue? Has your family ever made any outstanding contributions, or won any awards in major nationally recognized competitions?"

"Yes, my wife's pregnancy time has broken the Guinness record. The certificate is in the room. Sirs, please wait a moment. I will get it for you right now."

"Um."

As the boss left, the two police detectives gathered around the shrine to observe and discuss carefully. They even felt that the status of the statue was comparable to that of the statue enshrined in the police station.

What they didn't notice was that a pregnant woman was already standing at the entrance, but her belly was horribly large, with countless purple veins protruding from the surface.

If you look carefully, you will see the outline of a child's face, peering through the mother's belly at a stranger who has broken into the home, or seeing a different kind of 'raw meat', urging the mother to feed him quickly.

Little Fatty is still in the hospital. I'm typing words next to him. I'm a little late. Sorry.
