Chapter 429: The Corpse in the Basement [Asking for Tickets, Asking for Subscription!] 】
Hall didn't hide it and said, "He's a councillor in the city of Sori. ”
"No wonder."
Xia Ren sighed.
The dozen or so people with the highest power in a city are the ten legislators in power, the justices of the Dispute Arbitration Court, and the chief sheriff of the police station.
But living in this kind of place is still a luxury.
When they came to the door of one of the villas, Hall was about to knock on the door, but Xia Ren had already sensed something, and directly pushed the door open, breaking part of the door frame.
Walking inside, the first thing is a palatial living room, all the furniture is extremely luxurious, even the wallpaper on the wall is estimated to be worth a lot.
Hall expertly turned on the light and saw a mess.
The sofa overturned, the fluff inside was scattered all over the floor, the chandelier in the center of the living room was half shattered, only the other half was barely maintained, emitting a faint light, there were traces of fighting everywhere, and even the entire jade coffee table was smashed into several pieces.
There were still large patches of blood on the floor, but they had all coagulated, Xia Ren squatted down and took a brief look, judging by how dry the blood was, it was at least a morning thing.
Hall was taken aback by the scene in front of him, even if he had seen a lot of bloody scenes, he was still a little apprehensive in the face of this situation.
Because it was not at all like the destructive power of a human fight, it was as if a few strong male lions had been wreaking havoc in the living room.
Following the trail of blood dragging, Natsuhito left the living room and walked to a room next to it.
The wooden door of the room was also damaged, and several holes appeared in it, two of which seemed to be hammered with fists, and the largest one in the middle, the planks were widely cracked, and they should have been kicked open.
Pushing open the broken door, you can see that the interior of this room is actually very small, only less than five square meters, even if it is used as a utility room, it does not seem to be enough.
In fact, this room does do something else.
The floor in the center of it was lifted, revealing a narrow staircase underneath that, judging by experience, was supposed to connect to the basement.
Looking through the staircase, all you can see is a deep darkness, and the pungent smell of blood overflows from it.
Qin Yun was a little disgusted by the smell of blood, raised her hand to cover her nose, and asked, "What's down here?" ”
"You'll have to see it."
Xia Ren said, taking the lead down the stairs.
Qin Yun turned his head to look outside the door, and Hall looked frightened, not daring to come in.
"Leave him alone, he's out of work."
Natsuhito's voice came from under the stairs.
Qin Yun also followed down the stairs, and soon blended into the dark space.
Hall was stunned in the living room for a moment, then cautiously walked into the small room and looked down.
There was no movement.
He became bolder, although the psychological shadow brought to him by Xia Ren was indelible, but if it was more important than survival, it was obviously the latter.
"It's better to ...... while they're gone"
Hall struggled for a few seconds, but decided to take this opportunity to escape, who knows if he would slaughter himself by the way when they came up.
He tiptoed around, lest he might disturb the two men by making a slight movement, and it was not until he passed through the parlor and came to the hallway that he breathed a sigh of relief.
When he got out of this community, he planned to quickly pack up his things, leave this place as quickly as possible, run to the chaotic area of Nanzhou to hide, wait a few years to see the situation, and then consider whether to come back.
No, even if there is no movement at that time, he will definitely not be able to come back, the boss is estimated to be more than lucky, and he has lost his backer, and those enemies are eager to eat him alive.
Hall had already thought of a way out, but as soon as he walked out of the door, he saw two mysterious people in black robes standing outside the door.
Stunned for a second, Hall was just about to say something, when one of the black robes had already reached out and grabbed his neck directly.
Hall's one hundred and fifty pound body was lifted by the other party with one hand.
The black-robed figure's arm was as hard as steel, and Hale felt a strong suffocation, and with all his strength, he couldn't break even a finger of the other party.
"Click."
Hall's legs were struggling in mid-air and fell down, his neck had been choked off, and his body was thrown haphazardly on the lawn in front of the door.
The two black-robed men didn't even look at them, and walked straight into the room.
……
……
On the other side, Xia Ren and Qin Yun had already entered the basement.
It's bigger than you think, with lights on in the basement and a space that's like a small parking lot.
There was even more blood stains here, large spills of blood, and the walls and pillars of the basement were covered in blood, creating a horrific scene like hell.
The smell of pollution was as strong as the smell of blood, and Xia Ren felt that the infected area on his tentacles was a little itchy, as if it had reacted to the environment in front of him.
Not far from the basement entrance, a fat corpse was nailed to the wall, a black, a meter-long iron drill about the thickness of a little finger passing through his chest and plunging straight into the hard concrete wall.
The corpse's whole body was scarred, one of its forearms was torn off, and it was left behind, and the white bones of Sensen were exposed from the torn flesh, which looked very terrifying.
Xia Ren lifted his lowered head, his face was purple and swollen due to congestion, it was already difficult to see what he looked like before he was born, but when he just entered the upper room, Xia Ren saw a family photo on the ground, and the figure of the man on it sat in the middle, so it was speculated that he should be the boss of Hall, the councilor of Soli City.
Only, how could he die here?
Xia Ren looked at the iron drill that had fatally wounded him.
This is a weapon often used by Foundation investigators, and the iron drill has been treated with stygian water, which has a certain restraint effect on contaminants, which is equivalent to a weakened version of the Holy Sword of Physics.
And the investigators who recently appeared in the city of Sori......
Come to think of it, it seems that only real estate agents are the most likely.
While Xia Ren was pondering, Qin Yun shouted on the other side, "There is also a corpse here!" ”
Xia Ren let go of his hand and let the councilor's head fall again.
When he came to Qin Yun's location, he found a figure wrapped in a black robe sitting on the ground, his back against the wall, no longer breathing.
Lifting the black hood covering the corpse's head, the two saw that the short hair on the corpse's head showed a strange twist, like some kind of mold.
Xia Ren immediately became vigilant and asked Qin Yun to retreat, just as he was pulling out the crowbar and wanted to further check the situation of the corpse, there was a sound of footsteps at the entrance of the basement.
