The face was covered in blood, and the face was hideous, and it was impossible to see what it was original.

But the more this happens, the more frightening it becomes.

Young Finch was stunned for a moment.

Jason raised the muzzle of the 'Winchester brothers', and Bundy, who was on the side, was also about to pull the trigger of the revolver.

But at this time-

Slippery.

The face posted on the glass seemed to have been pasted for too long, and began to slide like a failure.

And, when it slid down to normal, it just dissipated into smoke.

If it weren't for the remnants of blood stains on the glass, no one would have believed that there was a face just pasted here.

Bundy was stunned.

Subconsciously, the sheriff turned to look at Jason.

Jason walked towards the window.

but

just one step.

"Ahh

"Dead!"

A terrible scream rang out from the street below.

Bundy and Finch turned and ran downstairs.

Jason didn't act immediately, but walked to the window as originally planned, and shook his nose slightly.

No food ...... No, there is no 'mystery' vibe.

"What was that just now?"

Jason stood in front of the window, looking through the glass at the scene downstairs that was already under martial law under Bundy's command.

From his point of view, he could clearly see a face-down figure crawling there.

Jason looked around and up again.

After making sure there was nothing to care about, he turned around and went downstairs.

By the time Jason walked out of the police quarters, the crawling corpse had already been turned around, but everyone who saw the corpse's face gasped.

Because......

This corpse has no face!

The other party's face was completely 'peeled off', and only flesh and blood remained.

Almost subconsciously, Jason thought of the face he had just taped to the window.

Bundy and Finch undoubtedly thought of this, and they both looked at Jason at the same time.

Jason didn't speak, but half-crouched down and began to examine the body.

The clothes were ragged, and even the texture could not be seen.

There were no shoes and his feet were covered in mud.

The body is average, but the muscles are strong, and it should be exercised regularly.

There are calluses on the palms and index fingers, which should have been left by contact with firearms.

Pity......

The most important countenance is gone.

"Is that face just on my window glass his?"

"If yes......"

"Why?"

"Deterrence? Warn? ”

Jason pondered.

But I didn't have the slightest clue.

He couldn't figure out the other party's motives.

Intimidation and warnings are not valid!

Because, he knew very well that after the previous explosion, those mysterious people who were attracted by the 'Herck Elixir' would definitely not use such a simple way to deter and warn again.

As for the mystical side of Lorde?

Not even so.

Those guys also knew that this kind of tactic would not scare him, but would cause trouble for themselves.

"How?"

Bundy asked in a low voice.

"I don't have a clue for the time being."

"Do it your way."

Jason said truthfully.

He was not a man of will, especially at a time when it could be a matter of life and death.

"Well, I'll leave it to me."

Bundy nodded, and began to arrange for people to investigate and find the source of the body.

Jason returns to 305 to wait for a message.

Leave professional things to professional people.

Undoubtedly the best choice.

However, when he returned to the room and saw the remnants of blood on the window glass, Jason frowned.

He wasn't sure if it would be a clue, and of course, he wasn't sure if it would be a 'peep'.

Therefore –

Swish!

He closed the curtains.

Then, picking up the loot Finch had collected, Tanir handed over the trading items, he walked straight out of the room and headed for 303.

303, Hall's office--bachelor apartment.

At this time, Hall apparently received Bundy's order and was about to leave.

"Borrow your office."

Jason said as he pointed to his room.

Hall, who had already worked with Jason more than once, immediately understood.

The detective gestured and asked Jason if he wanted to deal with it.

Jason waved his hand.

"Understood."

Hall nodded immediately, and then, with the door open, ran downstairs.

Just as Jason is willing to trust their profession, they also trust Jason to be able to handle the events of the 'mystery side'.

As for Jason borrowing a room?

There is no problem.

After all, there's nothing unpleasant about a middle-aged single man's dormitory.

Apart from......

The taste is a little punchy and a little choking.

Jason opened the window and ventilated for a few minutes before he walked into 303.

There is no difference from the layout of the 305.

It's just an extra filing cabinet.

Glancing at the filing cabinet, Jason pulled out his chair, without touching any of the papers on his desk, and began to sort through the loot and trade.

The trade items given by Taniel are well organized.

Because, except for Jinke, it is a common sense book on the 'mysterious side'.

Although the young teacher of the Deer Academy wanted to exchange for some more monster corpses, the previous wave of transactions had already wiped out everyone's inventory at this 'gathering'.

Want more?

I can only wait for the next time.

Thaniel gave a total of 55 gold grams, which is a lot more than Jason expected, and it is clear that Tanier's 'trading talent' is at work.

Jason counted them all and put them all in his money bag.

At this moment, he has a total of 71 gold grams, 12 silver grams and 14 bronze grams, without copper horns.

Looking at the bulging money bag, Jason felt a sense of satisfaction.

However, he knew better that Jinke in the purse was not going to make him safe.

"With this money, we should be able to buy some ingredients."

Jason thought.

Who will be acquired?

Needless to say?

Who better than Tanier?

With this in mind, Jason picked up the 'mystery side' common sense book given by the other party.

That's right, it's given.

According to the other party, such books are very precious to ordinary people, and they are not valuable to the occult people, because the mystical people know all this, and everyone cares more about the secret arts, rituals, and everything related to the power system.

But for Jason, it's precious.

Because, this common sense is exactly what he lacks.

While flipping through the book in your hand.

Jason opened the bag of loot that Finch had collected.

It contained some fragments of weapons and props.

Although broken, a keen person can still find that these fragments have a trace of extraordinary.

Before these weapons and props are broken, they are all arcane weapons and props that have been integrated into the 'mysterious material', and their value is definitely not low.

And now?

Jason pulled out a fragment and put it to his mouth and gently smacked it.

The feeling of deliciousness blooms on the tip of the tongue.

It's a bit like a snail.

Well, braised one.

Slightly spicy.

Next, turn a page of the book.

Then, I felt out another fragment, a shard.

This one is like a cow's spinal cord.

It is also braised to taste.

It's also a bit spicy.

Is it because of the 'explosive' process?

Jason couldn't help but think.

And, I don't know if it's a delusion, Jason found that when the taste of food bloomed on the tip of his tongue, his reading speed actually improved considerably.

Is this the right way for me to read?

Jason couldn't help but think like this, but he put down the book in his hand for a while.

Because, he had heard Finch's familiar footsteps.

Knock, knock.

Finch, who obviously knew that Jason had changed rooms, knocked directly on the door of 303.

"Enter."

As Jason spoke, Finch pushed the door open.

As soon as he entered the door, the young man said very simply:

"The identity of the body has been found."

"Yes......"

"Tik."
