Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Headless Corpse
"That's what I said......"
Faust filled the empty glass with wine and handed it over: "Then how did you solve this matter?" ”
"Tons and tons of ......"
"Whew!" Conan Doyle drank the wine in one gulp and felt a little dizzy, he picked up the empty glass and looked at Faustus: "Your wine is indeed very good, but why do I feel dizzy after drinking it?" ”
Faust picked up the bottle and looked at it: "This is my modified version of the eaux-de-vie......"
"The water of life? Isn't it whiskey? But why do I feel something is wrong with this whisky? Is it fake? I could drink at least one bottle of whiskey before, why did I get a little dizzy after drinking two glasses of this whiskey, is it because I drank too hard? ”
Conan Doyle's whole body was slumped on the couch, and his face was flushed.
"This is the Russian eaux-de-vie, a little more pure...... It's completely different from the one we drank. ”
Faust turned to look at Conan Doyle and wanted to say more, but the guy was too drunk to get drunk.
"This is drunk? Is the amount of alcohol so bad? ”
I wanted to get something out of Conan Doyle, but I didn't expect this guy to get drunk after two drinks. I'm afraid it's impossible to get something out of him.
He reached into Conan Doyle's pocket and lived up to his expectations and got the picture.
In the photo, there is a row of tooth marks on the neck of the headless corpse, which seems to be related to canine animals, and it is not difficult to see the time of death in the stiff state of the body, which is not three hours different from the time when Conan Doyle found himself.
And now it was already dark, he glanced at his watch, it was about seven o'clock, according to Conan Doyle's words, and the time of death, the time of the crime should have been around four o'clock in the afternoon.
"There should be a lot of people leaving work at that time. So Conan Doyle didn't exaggerate...... And it's very close to the facts, but this thing is too unbelievable, which makes people have a delusion. ”
Faust sat in his exclusive seat, and the figure of Moritia kept coming to mind.
When he saw Moritia before, he was wearing a yellow robe, and now this victim is also wearing a yellow robe, Moritia himself is a believer loyal to the Lord of the Yellow Clothes, so this one
It has nothing to do with him.
"But what the hell is that guy trying to do? Just trying to cause panic? Faust shook his head, he knew Moritia's character, this guy was definitely not there to cause panic.
"Conan Doyle had said before that the victim knelt on the ground and said something in his mouth...... It could be a spell...... So it's for sacrifice. Faust seemed to have an eyebrow at the thought of this.
"The barking of wild dogs...... No one can see it...... No, there must have been a time when everyone couldn't see what was around them. ”
Because Conan Doyle had just described to Faust that it had been dark for a while when it happened, it was possible that the monster had taken advantage of this time to do it.
"That's not right...... Although Conan Doyle didn't tell me how long this darkness had been going through, it is not difficult to hear from his words that the time interval was not long...... So how the hell did this monster manage to kill people and then disappear? ”
Faust took a deep breath: "This monster is more difficult to deal with than I thought. ”
Dingdingding......
The phone next to him rang suddenly, and Faust was a little puzzled: "Who else will call me at this time?" Could it be that Wang Feng and them? ”
He quickly took the phone and asked, "Which ......?"
"It's ...... me"
"Tesla...... Why did you suddenly remember to call me? Faust sighed: "Your affairs over there have been settled?" ”
"Hmm...... It's settled, but Wang Feng ...... Never mind...... We met the future you...... What the hell is going on? ”
Tesla wanted to say and stopped, he didn't know whether to say something or not, and he didn't know how to express it.
"I also met my future self......"
"Can you tell me? What the hell is going on? I don't feel right...... You must know what's going to happen in the future, otherwise you wouldn't be so uneventful...... The future you must have told you everything. Faust ......"
Tesla's tone was more like a pleading.
Faust didn't speak, but hung up the phone directly: "I'm sorry, I can't tell you......" He also wanted to make peace
But if it does, then the future becomes uncertain, Sila said. This will lead to even greater catastrophes.
The future self only tells him how to do it, and tells him not to tell what he knows, because it is the fate of everyone.
The battle of time and space is extremely important to everyone, and if one ring goes wrong, the whole thing is lost...... Then they will have no future, and the past will cease to exist, and everything will return to nothingness.
And Wang Feng is the most important link, otherwise Faust in the future would not let Wang Feng join this game again.
Faust returned to his desk and thought about it: "Is that what you said before?" ”
He looked at the photo in his hand and nodded: "Since fate chooses it this way, then I will move forward according to the choice of fate......"
London streets.
A group of yellow-robed men wrapped themselves tightly, candles in their hands, and ancient incantations in unison.
Everyone avoided them, and they didn't dare to approach.
A police car directly blocked the way of the congregation.
The young police officer got out of the car and pointed his gun at the leader of the cultist, "What do you want to do? ”
Although the events of the day are suppressed, there is no impermeable wall in this world, and some rumors will leak more or less.
"Bang Bang!"
He fired three shots at his head, but instead of deterring, the shots made the disciples laugh.
"What are you laughing at?"
The young officer roared and then pointed his gun at one of the believers.
"Believe it or not, I killed you?"
The congregants ignored the young officer, and all of them said in unison: "Once you become many, all will become one, and we are believers in God...... Eventually, they will become a part of God. ”
"Don't talk so much about them, and put all these guys back hungry for a few days...... When the time comes, it is useless to beg grandpa to sue grandma. Another policeman sneered, he often met this kind of thing, he knew how to deal with it, how could there be so many devout believers, these guys in front of him, just doing some ridiculous things in the name of God.
