"Thank you, generous sir. ”

Sean put his hat back on and began to be vigilant and ready to examine everything he saw when he entered the door to see if he could find any clues.

As for why the man opened the door, it was simply because he understood Sean's words, there are many such private investigators in the capital of steam, while receiving the employer's bounty, and at the same time blackmailing and being transferred

Check the object.

So looking at Sean with a greedy face, the man must be able to guess Sean's identity, he is the private investigator who investigated him before, and of course he is also one of the objects he wants to get rid of.

Sean, who stepped into the room, found that there was no light in the huge room, the curtains were all closed, and there was no light in the whole room, which was particularly dim under the shroud of darkness, especially the deer head decoration hanging on the wall added a touch of hideousness, very cautious.

Click!

The door closed, and when he heard the sound of Sean's secret words, he immediately rolled forward and turned back, half-kneeling and pulling out the revolver he had hidden before and pointing it at the man who was locking the door at the door.

"You seem to be a little nervous, Mr. Sean. Terry, who suspected to be Maria's husband, had no fear of the revolver pointed at him. "Hehe, I'm still here with a gun, and Mr. Sean doesn't seem to be talking to me about business. ”

In the face of Terry's chuckling question, Sean did not let his guard down, still maintaining a posture of preparing to shoot, and asked, "Where's Lady Maria?"

"Oh, it seems that Mr. Sean is really a kind and principled gentleman, but unfortunately the kinder the person, the easier it is to get the call of death. ”

As he spoke, Terry glared at his bloodshot red eyes, cracked his mouth and bared his yellow teeth, and walked out of the darkness of the doorway.

"Stop Mr. Terry, I don't want to hurt you, I just want to know the whereabouts of Lady Maria. ”

Sean warns Terry as he presses the hammer of the revolver with his thumb.

"Mary, my sun, has always loved her dearly, and although we had an unfortunate beginning, we had a romantic process, and I had planned to wait until this was over to go with her on our long-planned trip to Ferry, which should have been our long overdue pre-wedding trip. There was a warm look on Terry's face.

In the blink of an eye, Terry's expression began to distort, "But Mr. Sean, if it weren't for your presence, if it wasn't for your greed, if it wasn't for you taking those damn pictures, then my wife wouldn't be dead." ”

"You killed her?" Sean was shocked.

"No, no, you killed her. ”

Terry, who was becoming more and more excited, raised his right fist and pounced on Sean, and the speed was amazing.

Bang!

As a last resort, Sean could only pull the trigger, and the hammer accurately hit the bullet in the nest, instantly igniting the gunpowder to push the orange bullet, and hit Terry's left chest along the barrel, popping out a bloody splash.

"It's over. ”

Sean, who was breathing a sigh of relief and hadn't reacted, saw Terry, who had been shot in the chest but had no effect at all, still waving his fist and already appeared in front of him.

Feeling the oppression of the fist wind, he didn't have time to think and knew that once this punch was hit, he would definitely not survive, so he subconsciously tilted his head slightly to the left, dodging Terry's fatal fist.

With a strong punch wind, the hard mahogany closet behind Sean was smashed to pieces by Terry's punch, followed by a heavy left fist, forcing Sean to roll on the spot in embarrassment, and Sean, who rolled to the living room, got up and shot again, this time aiming at Terry's head.

Bang!

The bullet hit Terry's arm in front of him, and then he roared like an angry bull, raised his arm flat for a ramming angle, and rushed straight at Sean.

However, Terry's charge was so fast that Sean didn't have time to dodge, forcing Sean to make a simple sideways turn to dodge.

Sean, who was lucky, didn't smash to the ground like Terry's table, but it wasn't good that just the rush 'blew' Sean onto the side of the wine cabinet.

A large amount of blood-red liquid from the smashed wine soaked Sean's clothes, and a lot of cold glass stabbed into his back, Sean, who smelled of high-end wine, didn't care about the pain, and watched Terry shake his head and walk towards him, so he could only raise the pistol again and shoot again.

Bang, bang!

The two bullets in quick succession were unexpectedly blocked by Terry's raised arm, and only a little blood splashed on the arm, which couldn't help but make Sean feel a trace of despair rise in his heart.

"Hehe, Mr. Sean, it seems that the toys in your hand are not very effective, you can rest assured that I will love you well, do you say that you will pull out your teeth one by one, or smash your fingers one by one?"

"I chose to kill you first, monster. ”

Sean regretted coming in a little alone, so he could only grit his teeth and scold angrily to relieve the pain in his body.

"Hahaha, monster, this is a perfect body given to me by the gods, and ordinary weapons can't hurt me at all. ”

Terry looked at Sean, who had nothing to do, and couldn't help but laugh and mocked, as if he was ready to play a game of cat and mouse.

It was only then that Sean suddenly remembered why there was no glimmer of light in this room, was he afraid of light?

There is no time to hesitate.

In Terry's mocking eyes, Sean pulled the trigger again, but the shot didn't hit Terry, but he aimed at the hook on the window that held the curtain in place.

The hanging curtains slowly fell, and the intense and dazzling sunlight instantly filled the room, dispelling the shadows and cloudiness inside.

"Ahh

Terry let out an astonishing scream after being exposed to the sun, only to see him cover his face with his hands, his short blonde hair began to wither and fall out, mixed with the foul-smelling black smoke, and his bare skin began to rot, subconsciously struggling to crawl back into the darkness.

"Mr. Monster, you'd better say less when you're going to kill someone next time. ”

Sean looked at Terry, who was about to retract into the shadows, and quickly ignored his disgusting appearance, grabbed Terry's left leg with a flying pounce and dragged him back to the living room to bask in the sun, while smashing the butt of a rifle into the almost sane and preparing to reflexively gnaw on his own Terry's head.

It's just that Sean didn't expect it, Terry's physical defenses seemed to be severely weakened by the sunlight, and with just an ordinary hammer blow, he smashed his skull into a large hole, revealing gray brains and black blood.

Seeing Terry, who was already convulsed in the sun, Sean's tense expression suddenly relaxed, but he was familiar with various stories, and for safety, he once again raised his revolver and fired the last bullet at the head that Terry had been protecting.

Bang!

Without any incident, the orange-yellow bullet unleashed a grayish-black flower with disgusting blood on Terry's skull.

"Whew, whew..."

Sean, who had completely resolved the crisis, could no longer hold his body, sat in the living room full of sawdust, and lay on the floor with his eyes closed and gasping for breath.

"Sean, Sean..."

With a sudden gunshot outside the villa, Vivian, who kicked the door open, did not appear in front of Sean, but her unique voice had already come in.

Hearing the anxious and reassuring tone of the Thorn Bird Lady, although Sean was relieved for a while, he couldn't help but say in his heart: "Sure enough, the last person to appear is the police." ”

"Sean, are you alright, gag..."

Rushing into the room, Vivian first found Sean slumped on the ground with a bloody face, and before she could say anything of concern, a highly decomposed corpse and the nauseous stench that filled her nose couldn't help but retch.

However, Vivian looked at Sean, who had been speechless and covered in injuries, and finally held back the discomfort in her heart, and hurriedly ran to Sean's side and shouted anxiously:

"Sean, don't die, Sean..."

Sean, who was held in Vivian's arms and kept shaking, opened his eyes tiredly, and his brown eyes met the pale golden eyes full of eagerness, concern and a hint of different feelings, and couldn't help but show the brightest smile to Vivian, but his mouth said fiercely:

"Miss, I guess you're really dead if you shake it down, go save Lady Maria first, I'm just temporarily out of strength, let me rest for a while. ”

"Uh-huh, it's great that you're okay, I'm sorry, I..."

Listening to the voice that she still hated, Vivien couldn't help but laugh, and her tone became brisk, "Speaking of which, what's going on here, why is there a highly decomposed corpse and that disgusting stench, vomit..."

As she spoke, Vivien, once again focused on her surroundings, retched again.

Rolling his eyes, Sean pouted and said, "You should go and save Lady Maria first, it's hard to explain this matter to you at once." ”

"Oh, where is Lady Maria?"

"Find it yourself. Sean said helplessly.

"If you look for it yourself, you can find it yourself, what is the murder..."

Gently helping Sean to a fairly intact chair, he began to search for Lady Maria.

Sean, who was sitting in a chair, looked at Vivien, who had already searched for the second floor, and then looked at Terry, who had stopped rotting in the sunlight next to him, and Sean had an indescribable fear.

Not to mention his far more human strength, even from the level of destruction on the first floor, it is already more than an adult brown bear, that is, Terry's lack of fear of firearms is not a physique that humans can have, because Sean remembers very well that his first shot accurately hit Terry's left chest, even if his heart grows on the right side, it is impossible to swing his fist to attack himself without any effect.

Not to mention the scene where Terry's discord and common sense quickly decayed in the sun at the end, which was the real reason why Sean's mind couldn't settle down for a long time.

"What kind of monster is this, the legendary noble vampire of the night, or the lich who sold his soul? ”

Monsters that can be destroyed with just an ordinary pistol and sunlight are indeed not as powerful as legendary creatures.

All kinds of strange conjectures came to Sean's mind, but he couldn't get any answers, after all, when the monsters in the fairy tale books appeared in reality, all that was left was curiosity except fear.

"Sean, I found Lady Maria, but she is very badly injured and needs to go to the hospital immediately. ”

Sean, overjoyed to learn that his employer was still alive, swayed to his feet, and prepared to go to the second floor to help Ms. Maria with a simple bandaging treatment.

As for why Sean knows how to bandage, because according to his original words, a qualified detective must master enough skills to improve his worth, such as being able to blend into the upper class by virtue of elegance, or being vulgar and integrating into the lower class, being able to shoot and fight in close combat, being able to concoct poison and save people...

But Sean's joy at turning around and preparing to go upstairs didn't last long, as he noticed that the sunlight that had been giving him warmth seemed to be blocked by something, and a long, eerie shadow appeared beneath his feet.
