Satan's Servant (27) Dream Shadow

"What is Mr. Detective thinking?" Vashag smiled and looked at Jun Hao's thoughtful expression, then casually picked up a newspaper from the table, raised his eyebrows and said, "Wow, it seems that Mr. Detective is famous." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Tianyun tilted her head curiously and looked at the newspaper in Vashag's hand. I saw a post titled "Lucky Detective? Or is it the devil detective? , which describes the sniping of police officers by Chief Stephen at an April Fool's Day party, as well as anecdotes about the bizarre survival of Baker Street's 'Detective King' under a sniper rifle. Looking at the signature of this report, it was the one who always liked to use the word 'demon' - Harry Woodson.

Jun Hao also noticed the report. Although the real name of 'Detective Jun' is not specified throughout the article, it is obvious that the Detective Jun in this report refers to 'Jun Hao'. And when the 'Red Devil' finally chose an anti-weapon sniper rifle to destroy the glass room, intending to prevent Stephen from continuing to kill, he not only successfully entered the glass room, but was lucky enough to only suffer minor injuries under the huge power of the anti-weapon sniper rifle. The reason for this is that, in addition to mentioning Lady Luck's special favor in the report, Harry unceremoniously assumes that this 'detective' is a 'monster' who 'has the body of a devil'. At the end of the article, the word 'devil' on Stephen's arm is used to allude to the fact that Director Stephen suddenly went berserk and killed the elite of the police world, which may be related to the 'detective king' who appeared on the London Eye at the last moment just to meet the murderer Stephen.

"It seems that this reporter is very interested in you, Mr. Detective?" Vashag still had a smile on his lips, and there was a hint of playfulness in his dark red pupils.

Jun Hao read the whole report indifferently, then threw the newspaper aside and smiled casually: "It's just nonsense from unscrupulous reporters." Why care? ”

"The power of the media is much more terrifying than you think!" Tianyun suddenly said coldly. Jun Hao shook his head and disagreed: "These are all unwarranted things, those gods and ghosts legends and the like, they can only be used to coax ignorant children." ”

"Really? It seems that all the people in London are mentally retarded children. Tianyun snorted coldly, forked up a piece of fried egg on the plate, but didn't eat it, but picked up the knife on the side and cut the fried egg into countless pieces, and the egg yolk juice that was twisted into a ball reminded Jun Hao of the intestinal juice in the human intestine.

"What comes to mind?" Vashag asked with a smile.

"Something that affects appetite." Jun Hao had a polite smile on the corner of his mouth. But the details of the autopsy came to mind, as well as piles of white bones, as well as muscles, blood vessels, and nerves spreading on the skeleton...... A trance is a scene that appears in a dream. I shook my head, my eyelids still heavy. I slept very early last night, and I had a very strange dream, and when I woke up, I only felt exhausted. Although he barely wanted to lift his spirits at the moment, Jun Hao couldn't help but yawn.

"Did Mr. Detective really sleep well last night?" Vashag smiled and looked at Jun Hao's face, "But, Mr. Detective looks tired." Isn't it customary? Still is...... Having a nightmare? ”

…… Nightmare? ……

Jun Hao was suddenly shocked!

**************

Seven hours ago.

…………

Twelve o'clock in the evening. Marquis' Palace.

After confirming Erin's inspection report, Jun Hao followed Sasha to the guest room. After a short rest, Jun Hao began to prepare for tonight's exploration.

Just as Tianyun guessed. The reason why Jun Hao easily 'believed' the contents of the anonymous letter was precisely to have a reasonable excuse to visit Vashag. According to his original plan, even if there was no accident with Erin' being injured, he would use a vehicle breakdown or physical discomfort as an excuse to stay in the Marquis palace in Vashag for the time being.

…………

Quietly watch the layout and furnishings in the room. Classic European-style dΓ©cor, noble but not too tacky home decoration. This brother of Erin seems to be a nobleman with great taste. However, there are no laws that prove that it is impossible for a nobleman to become a murderer.

- Stephen's message before his death clearly alludes to a man with red eyes. According to the previous incursions into the police and municipal systems, as well as the secret database of Division D, the Marquis de Bryan is the only one in the whole of London who has the special sign of 'red eyes'. Of course, the possibility of similar mutated pupil species in other cities or countries cannot be ruled out. But in terms of the closest to this prerequisite, the red-eyed man referred to in Stephen's message before his death is most likely Vashag.

- And this afternoon, when Stephen said his message before he died, Vashag immediately left the hospital with Tianyun. Since no obvious change in his expression was observed at the time, it was ruled out that he left because he was provoked, and it could only be that he left on purpose, so as not to continue to entangle me and give me and Jinxuan a chance to see the flaws.

- If Vashag is the one behind the scenes, then why did he kill Tarani? Is it just to preview the opening of this game? And Jon. Why would a man who is a marquis have a grudge against the people at the bottom of society?

…………

Shook his head. Jun Hao once again fell into a logical dead end. There are so many things that can't be explained and straightened out that it gives him a slight headache.

It was the first time he had encountered such a situation. In the past, although there were occasional doubts and misunderstandings in the process of reasoning, it was quickly possible to find another reasonable way to move forward. But this time, there are too many unreasonable. It's as if it's all pieced together for no reason. The only reason that can explain this situation is that he has not yet grasped the main line. Therefore, I still can't see the truth clearly.

- Let's start probing as soon as possible.

Make up your mind. Jun Hao began to review every detail of this ancient building in his mind.

After entering this ancient building, Jun Hao has been carefully observing the surrounding environment, and everything he has seen has been deeply engraved in his mind. This is Jun Hao's special talent, and it may also be called a super image memory ability that is different from ordinary people. It is no exaggeration to say that all the architectural structures he has seen will be firmly imprinted in his mind, like an intuitive 3D map.

"This building is divided into five floors. Based on previous observations, Vashag is supposed to live on the top floor. Erin lives on the third floor. And the guest rooms are on the second floor. On the ground floor is the hall, kitchen and maid's room. So, let's start exploring from the unknown fourth floor. ”

Jun Hao took a deep breath, checked the items he needed to carry with him one last time, and prepared to get up and go out. Fang stood up, a gentle warm breeze blew, and he felt an unbearable tiredness sweeping over. As soon as his body went limp, he sat down on the edge of the bed.

- What's going on? Is it too tired? Or is it the after-effects of the injury?

In a drowsy state, he seemed to see a pair of cold dark red pupils, however, the existence was too short, and it was more like an illusion. Jun Hao tried his best to cheer up and drive away the heavy drowsiness. But what made him feel very helpless was that under the attack of intense fatigue, he was no longer able to think about anything. Eventually, the brain completely loses its ability to think and all perceptions, and in a trance, it falls into a deep sleep.

…………

When I woke up, I found myself lying in a beige corridor. He shook his head and looked carefully at his surroundings.

- It's the third floor where Erin is. But why did you come here for no reason?

Holding on to the wall to barely get up, Jun Hao only felt as heavy as lead.

- Is it sleepwalking? Or are you still dreaming?

I can't understand why this strange phenomenon is happening. The only explanation is sleepwalking or hallucinations seen during deep sleep caused by excessive tiredness. Either way, we won't know the answer until we're completely sober.

Dragging his heavy body, Jun Hao walked forward very slowly, the surrounding scene was still hazy and trance-like, and it looked as if it was shrouded in a layer of black mist. Because everything looked more like an illusion, it made Jun Hao believe that it was just a dream at the moment.

Suddenly there was a pleasant laughter in my ears. Strangely looking at the source of the sound, there was a faint, childlike laughter at the end of the dark hallway.

INTERVIEWER Are there any children here? However, I haven't heard that there are children living here. Looks like it's really a dream, right?

I thought to myself. If it's really just a dream, it's not surprising to encounter anything strange.

Laughter in the dark, with the horror of Sensen. However, a strong curiosity drove Jun Hao, holding on to the source of the voice, all the way to the darkness......

********

The staircase down seems to have no end. Swirling like an endless black vortex. After walking for nearly ten minutes, the slight laughter finally disappeared, and in front of Jun Hao's eyes, a black corridor finally appeared.

There was hardly any light, only a faint view of the dark road, Jun Hao reached for the wall, and then took out a miniature laser flashlight from his pocket.

- Is it really a dream? Why do you have this in your pocket? Could it be the result of subconsciously suggesting something while waking up?

Through the faint light, I can see the environment in front of me clearly. The corridor is about 100 metres long, which is similar to the length of the corridor on each of the remaining floors. It is surrounded by black patterned wallpaper, with two lamps on the wall, and in the middle of the lamp, there is a pitch-black door.

- Strange. It was clear that it was going down, and it should have been to the second floor, which is the floor where the guest room is located. But the environment in front of you is obviously not the second floor. Could it be that you have reached an unknown floor? However, if it's in a dream, it's reasonable to have an unknown level, right?

Dragging his heavy body, Jun Hao came to the black door, and before he could reach out to push it, the door suddenly opened.

The blinding white light forced Jun Hao to raise his hand to block out the light. At the same time, the sound of children's laughter and the voice of a man were heard.

...... "Ling, do you know why we keep studying human beings?" ”……

...... "Huh?" Study humans? Maybe it's because humans are weird and funny. ”……

......" isn't just because it's fun. What's more, all living beings in the Six Realms, their source and root, are human beings. ”

...... "Really?" But humans are the weakest of the Six Realms, right? ”……

...... "It is precisely because they are weak that they will continue to break through, breakthroughs in genes, breakthroughs in souls...... After that, gods, immortals, demons, demons, spirits, ghosts, and other creatures that are more powerful than humans will appear. ”

...... "But if humans are the root of everything, then why do demons and goblins keep hunting humans?" ”……

...... "It's not just demons, all living beings are hunting humans. ”……

...... "Really?" Do the gods hunt humans too? Do the fairies of the East also hunt humans? ”……

...... "The gods punish the wicked, and the fairies punish the evil and eliminate the evil, not to mention, many people who are not evildoers just because they unintentionally contradict the gods and immortals, or vainly try to combine with the gods and immortals, they will basically die tragically in the hands of the gods and immortals." Therefore, among the Six Realms, the most dead are human beings. ”……

......"Whew, that sounds like that's exactly what happened." However, since humans are the root of the creatures of the Six Realms, why not protect them and hunt them instead? ”……

...... "Ling, you can guess the reason." ”

...... "Guess?" …… Let me think about it...... Could it be that it is because all living beings are afraid that humans will evolve to be more powerful than them? ”……

The content of the dialogue is ethereal and ethereal, making it difficult to hear clearly, as if in a dream. But strangely, Jun Hao didn't see anyone in the room. Whether it's a man or a child.

And what surprised Jun Hao even more was that all the furnishings in the whole room, no! It's not just the decorations, it's even the walls! It's all made of Sensen's human skeleton! What's even more terrifying is that after Jun Hao entered this room, fresh muscles and nerves gradually grew on all the skulls! And when white eyeballs appeared in the sunken eye sockets, Jun Hao finally fell to the ground due to excessive tension......

***********

"What's wrong? Mr. Detective? ”

Pulling back his thoughts and looking at Vashag's inquiring gaze, Jun Hao always felt that those dark red eyes seemed to be able to see through every cell of him, which made people feel inexplicably uneasy.

- Was everything that happened last night really just a dream?

Jun Hao recalled everything he had witnessed last night. If not a dream, then what could it be? Hallucinations caused by hypnosis?

"By the way, Jun Hao, didn't you receive a second anonymous letter?" Tianyun gave up continuing to abuse the fried egg that had already been shattered, turned to look at Jun Hao, and asked, "Can you let me read that letter again?" ”
