Chapter 12: Detectives
In fact, sometimes a lot of things are put together and there are some strange chemical reactions.
Lorenzo had eaten a lot of strange food, whether it was a demon hunt in the Order, or a trip to Gallunaro with Seleuc, he had encountered worse things and eaten more unpalatable things, but those things had never been as much as the impact of the ghost thing in front of him.
In the six years he lived in Old Dunling, Lorenzo had heard the name of this dish, but only heard it, he rarely came to restaurants, and usually ate everything at home, but now looking at the dish in front of him, his life was a little trance.
Whether it's fish heads, cheese, pizza or something, these things look good and edible on their own, but when they come together, they become like some kind of demon concoction, full of absurdity.
Looking at the erected fish heads in front of him, Lorenzo's old face was not dark, this is looking up at the starry sky, this is not blinding! Each fish head widened its eyes, as if it was complaining to Lorenzo about what happened to this non-fish.
Okay, okay, or don't look at it anymore, Lorenzo picked up a sandwich and walked out of the restaurant without looking back.
Today is another new day, no troublesome people, no troublesome things, it's really good.
Hop on a steam tram, and the rumbling iron snake moves forward on the track in the direction of Sualan Hall.
Get up, eat, and then go to Sualan Hall.
This is probably Lorenzo's itinerary in the near future, Old Dunling is very large, there are many strange cases to solve every day, and as an external detective, Lorenzo will never be short of work.
Speaking of which, Lorenzo has to say that it is really good to be regular, there are people to assist in the whole process, and there will even be public funds to use, the only trouble is that there are more processes to go through, and you can't fire at will...... At least not to fire at will in the city.
Soon the striking building of the Suaran Hall appeared in Lorenzo's field of vision, it was a tall castle, but strangely this castle was built in the middle of the city, and many places have been demolished, this was originally the castle of a nobleman, and then he went bankrupt and mortgaged the castle, and after several years of turnover, and the expansion of the old Dunling, it fell into the hands of the authorities.
Originally, it was intended to be demolished, but because of its historical significance and military-grade defensive capabilities, it became the police security center of Sualan Hall, the entire Old Dunling.
After passing through the security check at the door, Lorenzo easily entered it, it was not the first time he had come to Suaran Hall, in his previous life, he would always play a variety of different roles and blend in with it, only after becoming an external detective, did he become open.
Well, that's pretty good.
Seeing Lorenzo's arrival, the police officers looked sideways, although this external detective has been in office for more than half a month, many young police officers still looked at him with curiosity, some of them were like facing a great enemy, and some of them were extremely excited.
In fact, this also makes sense, before this, Lorenzo was a mysterious detective from the lower city, and the famous record was the Red River tragedy that directly shuffled the lower city, in essence, Lorenzo is the existence of an urban legend for most of them, but now this urban legend not only appears in front of their eyes, but what is even more hellish is that he also clocks in and goes to work with them.
It's a feeling of disillusionment, this mysterious detective is not some ghostly character, not only is he approachable with a smile, but he also likes to blow water and fish with everyone to get the wool of Su Yalan Hall, and he looks like "comrades, let's overthrow the evil ruling class together".
After greeting a few familiar police officers, Lorenzo swirled back and forth through the dense booth and finally arrived at Pree's station.
"Do you have any work today?"
Lorenzo started his day.
......
Horse-drawn carriages are speeding through the streets of Old Dunling, although the automobile has been invented, but due to energy consumption and road problems, it is still a rich people's toy, not suitable for the complicated situation of Old Dunling.
Lorenzo and Preece sat opposite each other in the carriage, and there were still a few bullet holes in the door that had not been repaired, and the cold wind blew in through them, freezing the two of them from tightening their clothes.
"A murder?"
Lorenzo looked at the records on the paper, reading every sentence on them, and now the two were rushing to the scene of the crime, which Lorenzo usually used to solve the crime.
"To be precise, it was a brutal torture, so cruel that our police officers almost threw up when they went, and some of the little girls cried out in fear. ”
Preece added.
"So bad?"
Normal people would feel a little disgusted and disgusted when they heard this, but Lorenzo was a little excited, this kind of strange case is rare, and Lorenzo began to wonder what the scene would become.
Human beings have a limit on themselves, just as humans can easily kill an animal, but they feel terrible when they see the death of their own kind, if it is a cruel killing, the criminal must either have extraordinary psychological qualities or is a complete perversion.
But whatever he turned out to be, it would make things interesting.
The crime scene is located in the outer city of the city, near the new development area on the outskirts of Old Tunling, and due to the advancement of technology and the strengthening of the country, the population of Old Tunling has been on the rise, so much so that the government has been expanding the old Tunling city in recent years.
These developments have not yet been built, but because of the cheap rents near the edge, there are many foreigners living in cheap houses and taking the tram to work in the factories before dawn.
The scene of the crime was in an apartment building, and the carriages of Su Yalan Hall occupied most of the street, and the mounted police set up a cordon around them, and everyone looked solemn.
"Oh my God, it's so cruel. ”
"I don't think I'll want to eat it for half a month. ”
"I feel like I'm going to have to find a place to throw up. ”
As soon as he got out of the car, all kinds of voices poured into Lorenzo's ears, and the police officers all had sad faces, and some of them sat on the steps with blank faces, as if the impact had been too big and he began to doubt his life.
"It doesn't look good. ”
Presce didn't expect this to be the case, took the mask handed over, and then gave Lorenzo a copy.
"Tell me what's going on. ”
Lorenzo put on his mask and asked the police officer leading the way.
Even outside, you could still smell the smell of blood in the air, and it was really hard to imagine what the crime scene would have become.
"The victim was a middle-aged woman, an out-of-town who had only come to Old Dunling this year, working in a factory in Xicheng District, and according to the report, it was the landlord who asked about the strong smell of blood in the morning, and then saw that her room looked like it had been invaded, and then ...... It's the case that happens. ”
The officer said.
"It seems that it can be ruled out for money, there is no oil and water to be fished in this kind of place. ”
Lorenzo nodded, and walked up the stairs under his guidance, the crime scene was at the end of the corridor on the fourth floor, this was the victim's room, far away on the other side of the corridor, Lorenzo clearly felt the blood rushing to his face, and the blood that had dried up behind the cordon flowed most of the corridor, it was hard to imagine that so much blood would gush out of the human body.
"I hope you can be mentally prepared, I have been working for so long, and this scene is the most tragic I have ever seen. ”
The officer said with a sigh of relief, and then he stopped outside the cordon and moved forward.
"Do you want to come along?"
Lorenzo asked, turning to Officer Pres.
Listening to the officer's description, Officer Preece was a little embarrassed, he was a little curious, but he was afraid that he would regret this hellish decision, but after a few seconds, he nodded and walked into the room with Lorenzo.
The frenzy that almost condensed into substance impacted everything around them, and the picture scroll of blood instantly unfolded in front of the two of them.
