Elwood looked at Abbas's corpse, feeling sick and nauseous, and when he looked away, he couldn't recall the specific appearance of the corpse that had left him with such a psychological shadow.

Perhaps it was the kindness of the Creator that allowed his brain to forget this horrific nightmare, or perhaps it was his brain that was unable to fully comprehend and remember this crazy creation.

In order to keep himself rational, he looked at the corpse for less than ten seconds before looking away, and he was afraid that he would retch directly if he continued to look at it.

There was a determined police officer who vomited on the spot because he looked at the distorted dark painting for about two seconds, and his physical condition immediately deteriorated sharply, and he is still lying on the bed at home, suffering from fever and nightmares.

But he was glad he was able to stay away from the scene of the crime, and insisted that he would not deal with anything related to the case.

The old sheriff gave him a long vacation very understandingly, the old man who had been through the storm knew how crazy the world was, and Elwood was the same, and the various strange events encountered in his years of detective career made him gradually deviate from the way he knew the world, and slowly reduced his trust in science.

So during this time, he turned his attention away from the corpse and on the other two.

He was amazed by the truth he received.

He almost thought that Hervin and Kelly were the main culprits and accomplices in the case.

For although the disgust and disgust expressed by the two of them was strong, they were able to accept this horrible and crazy scene, and looked at the corpse for a long time.

The schoolgirl named Kelly squinted her eyes for a moment, then reopened them as if she had used to it, and surveyed the entire structure of the corpse.

Ellwood knew she couldn't be mistaken, she wasn't pretending to project her gaze, she was seriously observing the vile details of the corpse and everything the killer had done to it: the reverent fiddling with human organs, the joyful use of life as a material for expression, the way flesh and blood were assembled, the impact of the force on the skull.

She was watching, and she didn't vomit, she didn't go crazy, she didn't let out a hysterical wail.

She just looked at it as if these things were taken for granted in her life, just the ordinary work of a certain artist.

Kelly didn't like it, of course, it was in line with normal human sanity.

But aside from disliking, she didn't seem to be hit with much of an unbearable impact.

No, the impact was strong, but it was probably not as much as an ordinary college student would have seen the work of the crazy blasphemous painters of the 17th century, and it was completely unworthy of the corpse.

Even Carmela's "A Full Meal" or Edward's "The Nest in the Flesh Sac", these famous blasphemous paintings, works of art that linger on the bottom line of morality, can only be ashamed to see this corpse.

In contrast, the craziest works that human beings can imagine and create are nothing more than children's tricks.

It is as if the creator's brain is not limited to the realm of matter, his eyes can see all wavelengths of electromagnetic waves, his ears can hear all frequencies of sound, and he can experience the ultimate evil beyond human cognition, and express it in a way that human beings can barely perceive.

Ellwood has always associated this corpse with various works of art, not without reason, after seeing this scene, those crazy paintings are indeed just works of art, because this thing, whether it is called a corpse or a work, has an artistic value that transcends the times and the bottom line of human beings, not pure horror and disgusting, but also carries the aesthetic appeal of the murderer's deformity.

My king, why does this kind of thing appear in England!

Miss Kelly, if she were not the creator of this scene, then Elwood wished that he would not have any communication with her, for her mind was definitely not in the normal realm.

The other man's expression made Elwood suspect that he was the killer himself.

Because Elwood could see that although Professor Hewen had a so-called disgust and disgust on his face, it was just a disguise.

It is a polite expression that is deliberately shown to these mortals to prevent being regarded as evildoers.

Elwood didn't find a flaw in Herwen's expression itself, his position was seamless, and intuition was the ultimate criterion by which he judged things.

Hevendelenge, why does he not feel disgusting, is he, like the creator, has a way of understanding and cognitive structure that transcends human beings, so such a picture cannot have any impact on him?

Elwood almost sneered, for it proved that Hevendelenge had a similar way of thinking as a prisoner, and that he was almost the most suspicious person in common sense.

But beyond the false expression, he could see more emotions in his heart: a real disgust, but not by the gesture of the corpse, but for reasons he could not understand, and a slight anger, as if he had been offended, and whether the murderer had a personal vendetta against Hervendelenge that deliberately imitated the blood sacrifice depicted in his book?

Elwood noticed that Hervin seemed to finish his inspection, and simply named the blood sacrifice method.

The detective asked:

"Ouroboros?

Hervin says:

"An ancient cult that is less like the primitive beliefs of savage tribes and more present in the upper echelons of society, worshippers believe that the Ouroboros symbolizes reincarnation, all things, concrete imagery of perfection, and believes that it can also bring some kind of immortality to its worshippers.

"The lower classes generally don't think about things related to eternal life yet, and they tend to focus on more practical things, such as the satisfaction of desires.

"There are many interpretations of the Ouroboros ritual about immortality, such as the continuation of life through the use of other people's bodies, the rebirth of souls, and even the method of rejuvenating through repeated molting. ”

The detective asked:

"Do you think the murderer intended to pursue eternal life in this way?"

Herwin glanced at Elwood in surprise as if he were speaking in a tone as if eternal life could really be done through blood sacrifices.

Although it can be done.

Hewen said curiously:

"Is Detective Elwood a mystic?"

"What exactly does a mystic mean?"

Hervin explains:

"Basically, people who have not been able to witness or understand strange things with their own eyes, but still believe that various unnatural and non-scientific phenomena and life are real. ”

The detective nodded:

"Then I may be half a mystic, I believe in gods, I believe in ghosts, I believe in hell, I believe that the ruler of this world is probably not human beings themselves, but I still hold fast to reason and have faith in our modern science. ”

So there would be a semi-mystic among the three.
