"This thing is supposed to be the hands of a pocket watch, it must have been bitten along with its owner, and it happened to be stuck between his teeth. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" Luo Hanya took out the silver needle, played with it for a moment, and said with a smile.

"What a bad guy, in this battle of wits and courage, they are not as good as others, but unfortunately they didn't wait for a chance to say that they were willing to bow down, so they directly took their own lives." Rector pursed his lips and said jokingly.

"How cunning this arrangement is," Luo Hanya exclaimed, pointing to the dead crocodile, "The crocodile's eyes can see prey far away on land, its eyes also have good night vision, and its nose is also very sensitive, and it can smell water far away in the dry season." So the guy chose this time, this is not the time when the meteor shower should come, but the time when the fog is shrouded, he calculated everything, it's amazing! ”

"I think maybe it's a coincidence?"

"A surprising coincidence."

"In this way, then those comrades of yours are really not unjust, this is a criminal they can't imagine, and only I, Special Detective Lake, can catch him so easily."

“……”

“……”

"I'm sorry, Sir Henry, to have caused you such a fright. I didn't expect this fog to suddenly appear, and it prevented us from helping you in the first place. ”

"You've finally saved my life."

"But you took such a big risk. Can you still stand up? ”

"Give me another sip of brandy, and I think I'll be able to get up. Ah, please help me up. Based on your opinion, what should we do next? ”

"It's good to leave you here. You're not ready to venture any further tonight. If you're willing to wait, one of us will accompany you back to the estate. ”

He tried to struggle to his feet, but he was still very pale, and his limbs were trembling. Luo Hanya and Rector helped him to a rock, and he sat down and covered his face with trembling hands.

"It's a pity that we have to leave you now," Luo Hanya said, "and the rest has to be done, every minute counts." Now that the evidence is sufficient, now it is only necessary to arrest the person. ”

As they walked quickly down the path to the Sully Mansion, Rector muttered in a low voice, "Friend, I don't know the evidence you are talking about, and we don't have any solid evidence right now." ”

Luo Hanya didn't answer Rect, he strode and said softly, "A smart man will take the initiative to put an end to all the dangers he may encounter, I think that guy has fled here now, and the gunshots have already told him - he has found those tricks he has played." ”

"Why should we go if we can't catch that guy anymore?"

"You always have to check it out, don't you?" Luo Hanya said meaningfully.

The front door of the mansion was open, and without pause, they rushed in, hurried from room to room, and met in the aisle the old servant, who was already terrified. There is no light anywhere except the dining room. Luo Hanya hurriedly turned on the lamp, and there was not a single corner of the house that had not been searched, but there was no trace of the man they were seeking, and at last they came to the hut where Ruhr Duntai had been before.

"There's someone in there!" Rechett shouted, "I hear something moving inside. Open this door! ”

From within came a faint moaning and rustling sound. Luo Hanya kicked the door lock with the soles of his feet, the embarrassing thing was obviously not so fragile, he only felt that his feet were like being hit by electricity, and after a short period of numbness, there was a hot pain, but the door did not move at all, like a wall, blocking him from the outside.

Rector screamed, "Get out of the way!" ”

He sped up and kicked the door open. The two immediately rushed into the house with pistols in hand.

But there was no treacherous, cunning, audacious criminal in the house that they were looking for. In front of him was a very strange and unimaginable thing, Lecter stood there in astonishment and stared, while Luo Hanya just smiled, as if he had expected it.

The room is decorated like a small museum, with a large row of specimens of terrible animals on the walls, such as the Indian viper and the big wild wolf...... The most surprising thing was a huge skeleton, and it was hard to imagine what it was - maybe a Komodo dragon? It's the only guy who has such a huge body. It's amazing that the scheming and dangerous man would collect these things for amusement.

In the middle of the room there is an upright stake, which was erected to support the old moth-eaten beams that run across the roof. There was a man tied to the pillar, and he was so bound with a sheet that you couldn't make a sound, and you couldn't tell right away whether it was a man or a woman. A handkerchief was tied around the neck to a post behind him, and the other covered the lower part of his face, revealing two black eyes, full of pain, shame, and terrible suspicion, staring at them.

In a few moments, they had untied the man's mouth and body, and it was Mrs. Remo, and without saying a word—perhaps she had fainted—she fell straight in front of them. When her head naturally drooped on her chest, Luo Hanya saw a clear red whip mark on her neck.

"This damned criminal!" Luo Hanya shouted, "Hey, Rect, where's your brandy?" Put her in a chair! She had fainted from abuse and exhaustion. ”

Rector did not hesitate, and immediately fed the brandy into Mrs. Remo's mouth.

After a while, she coughed in pain twice and slowly opened her eyes.

"Is he safe?"

"Did he run away?"

The moment she woke up, she suddenly asked these two puzzling questions.

"He can't escape from us, ma'am." Rector said firmly.

"No, no, I don't mean that damn guy. I mean my husband, is he still safe? ”

Rector was stunned, not knowing how to answer. Luo Hanya shook his head helplessly and sighed, he somehow felt some sympathy for the poor middle-aged woman in front of him.

"You ......" Mrs. Remo looked at Luo Hanya and Rect's expressions, her face turned extremely pale, and her lips couldn't help but tremble, it was obvious that she had guessed the result. (To be continued.) )
