Volume 2: Murmur in the Night, Chapter 28, Strange Grace, 1/8
"Impossible? If the corpse were sawn in half, it would already take a long time...... What's more, posing? Two hours is definitely not enough, you must have made a mistake on that point......" Holmes felt that Conan Doyle was clearly talking nonsense.
Conan Doyle was also excited: "I also feel that something must be wrong, but the officer told me that the corpse could not lie." ”
Wang Feng snapped his fingers and said to Holmes, "Is it possible that the prisoner used ice to postpone the death of the corpse?" ”
After Wang Feng said this, it was indeed possible, Holmes nodded: "What you said is not unreasonable...... Thinking of this, he quickly pushed the door out.
"Then let's go to the scene first, Mr. Conan Doyle, you can rest well!" Wang Feng said goodbye to Conan Doyle, and then followed Holmes out of the ward.
In the corridor, Holmes suddenly remembered something, turned his head to look at Wang Feng, and hesitated.
"What's wrong? Sherlock Holmes ...... "Wang Feng looked at Holmes with a puzzled expression.
"Why is it the tune of Amazing Grace...... Does it mean something special? Holmes fell into deep thought and lit a cigarette.
"Is that monster a gift from God?" Wang Feng said his guess, and of course he also suspected that this matter had something to do with those yellow-robed people.
"Sherlock Holmes, do you think this matter has anything to do with the yellow-robed man?"
Sherlock Holmes shook his head: "It's not clear yet, whether there is contact or not, we have to go to the scene to find clues." He sighed and snuffed out the cigarette butt.
"The point is, what if there are no clues? Have you ever wondered about this question? Wang Feng began to be a little worried, after all, when they arrived at the scene, Conan Doyle was lying on the ground alone, there was nothing around, even if he went to the scene again, it would be in vain.
The information he has so far is only heard from Conan Doyle's mouth, as the so-called seeing is believing, hearing is false, and only these things that he hears will only associate the strange things that have happened to him from the truth.
"That's what I'm worried about, but I'm sure if it happens." Sherlock Holmes looked at Wang Feng and said, "As long as something happens, it will leave a clue, this is this truth." ”
Wang Feng felt that his head was big, that matter had not been resolved, and something else had come out, and the two might not have any connection, or maybe there was a connection.
"If, as Conan Doyle said, the corpse is brought back to life, then it proves that the deceased did not die, but became another life, and this kind of life has never been set foot in. This may also be the root of amazing grace...... This piece was meant to be a celebration of God, but one thing is certain...... "Sherlock Holmes also felt a headache: "Listening to Conan Doyle's description, it is certain that the murderer is not killing people, but trying to complete a work of art." He deprives life and subsequently gives life again. But what I don't understand is why that person has so much power? ”
"Abilities?"
Wang Feng kept thinking about it in his heart, and suddenly thought of something: "This may be the treasure given by those gods." ”
Sherlock Holmes was a little puzzled: "Is there any connection to what you are talking about?" ”
"Hmm!" Wang Feng nodded: "The Van Gogh we met before, he has an ability, I am sure that this ability is not innate, but acquired through some kind of stimulation." ”
"Acquired? The more you talk about it, the more mysterious it becomes, I don't understand. "Holmes felt more and more clueless.
Wang Feng looked at Sherlock Holmes: "When we arrived at Arkham before, those monsters we met should be the so-called gifts of the gods, they were originally humans, but later they got the gifts and turned into powerful monsters......" Thinking of this, Wang Feng gasped.
In other words, the so-called gods will give ordinary people some powers, but these ordinary people will give up their bodies and enter new containers. When they enter the new container, people's minds change. ”
Sherlock Holmes felt that what Wang Feng said did have some truth, but it was not accurate enough, and he always felt that there were two omissions.
In other words, when they abandon the container of human beings, they are no longer human...... Wait a minute, can I understand that these gods affect people's brains? ”
Wang Feng snapped his fingers: "It can also be understood in this way!" ”
"In that case, can I understand that this is the so-called god that stimulates people to stimulate their potential...... But when the potential is at its peak, it becomes a new species, and this species is the monster we have encountered before. Holmes said what was in his mind with a frown.
Wang Feng nodded, but he couldn't confirm it: "What we know so far is too little, maybe we have been in the wrong direction at the beginning." Perhaps those sacrifices just survived in a different way. ”
"Survive in a different way? This is beyond human comprehension. Holmes shook his head, disagreeing with what Wang Feng said.
"Maybe those gods are just guys who are many dimensions higher than the human level, but the current level of human development is not comparable to it. So we don't have this way to understand creatures at another latitude. Wang Feng believes that those so-called gods are just species that are many more civilized than humans, and they are not as terrible as imagined, they just have mastered technology that humans cannot master, and these technologies are enough for them to stand in the position of gods and overlook humans.
"If that's the case, humans are nothing more than ants to them. That's horrible, too. Sherlock Holmes patted Wang Feng on the shoulder: "What is deduced without clues now is all hypothesis and cannot be established." ”
Wang Feng naturally knew it.
"Actually, I'm honest, there are a lot of clues I've heard from Conan Doyle's mouth, but we haven't seen it, so there's no way to make a better association."
"Wait a minute, the previous one was a monster, and now it's a human, maybe this person has also been stimulated to his potential." Holmes clapped his hands with a little excitement.
Wang Feng touched his chin.
What Holmes said is not without reason.
"I was already wrong from the beginning, maybe the first death was not caused by a monster, but someone used some kind of prop...... What they really want to sacrifice is nothing more than brains. ”
