18. Resurrection from the dead
In addition to explaining what we had seen, the reinforcements asked many other questions, especially the hunting party that came in trucks, and it would have taken us nearly an hour just to answer their questions, and by the time we could get them right, it was already past noon.
Qiao Wei and I said a brief goodbye to Deputy Sheriff Mustache, and then we left the police station and headed straight for the shopping street where we first saw the giant wolf Carm.
The streets were still in shambles, and we could see people tidying up the mess and sweeping the glass that was scattered all over the floor. Qiao Wei and I were relieved to hear from this meeting, at least it proved once again that what we saw before was not a fantasy in our brains, and that the people in the shopping street were not killed, which was absolutely good news anyway.
Qiao Wei and I went to a restaurant on the corner and asked the person cleaning the broken glass at the door about the situation.
The man told me that when the fog first started, there was a sudden loud noise in the street, and then there was an earthquake, and he and the people in the store hid in the basement at the back, until they felt that the earthquake had stopped. We asked him again if he had seen a giant wolf, and the man shook his head and said no.
Later, Qiao Wei and I walked all the way down the shopping street and asked, and all we got were the results of the earthquake, and no one saw the shadow of the giant wolf, and even after we asked all the way, there were no casualties or disappearance in any of the stores.
Although it turned out to be haode, it was very strange, a few of us obviously heard someone shouting in the fog, and also heard the sound of the giant wolf eating, no matter which angle you think about it, it means that the giant wolf has eaten people. But the people on the street said that no one was missing, no one saw the shadow of a wolf, and no one even knew that Qiao Wei and I had been to this street in the fog before.
It's so weird!
I know that gods can interfere with the human brain to a certain extent, but the gods have also said that the gods are not in a good situation now, they have left their familiar living environment and entered a new environment where they cannot use the abilities they should have, and can only rely on the help of "natives". If the people on the street claim not to have seen us, there is only one explanation, that there is a servant of God who is nearby, and who uses his power to disturb the sight and hearing of everyone on the street, so that they have no idea what is happening.
Where's this minion? Who will he be? Is it a man? Is it a woman? Or is it...... Child?
I thought of the photo album at Grace's house, and the strange scene I encountered on the street from Sheriff Red's house jumped into my brain.
Elderly, children...... There are too many things to investigate in this town, and now that Qiao Wei and his father have arranged for them to disappear, and we will be in danger at any time if we continue to stay in the town, I can't make up my mind what to do next.
"What now? Do you go home or take a look at Sheriff Red's neighborhood? Or go to the school in town? "I simply threw this difficult problem of making a decision to Qiao Wei.
"Do you want to go back to the sheriff's house?"
Qiao Wei was also a little hesitant when he spoke, but now there was at least a place we both wanted to go, and the community of the sheriff's house was obviously more suspicious than the current shopping street.
We decided where we wanted to go, and we set off immediately, but it was really inconvenient to walk without a car.
After walking for more than ten minutes, the two of us came to the residential area of Sheriff Redfield's house again. Compared with the morning, there is no change here, the streets are still deserted and there are no pedestrians in sight, and the doors and windows of every house are closed, but now the weather is clear, and the previous gloomy feeling has decreased a lot.
We walked along the streets of the residential area in the direction of Sheriff Red's house, keeping an eye out for the houses around us.
The houses on both sides of the street weren't as lifeless as they seemed, and every time we walked past a house, I saw someone peeking their face out of the window. Most of those ** are old people, and there are also some children, and they are all looking at me and Qiao Wei, with their numb and non-emotional eyes, which also reminds me of the little girl in Sheriff Red's house.
These people didn't shy away from my gaze, but they didn't mean to rush out, they just stared at us.
When Sheriff Red's house finally came into view of Qiao Wei and me, we both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, because there were three police cars parked in front of his house, and six police officers were standing at the door of Sheriff Red's house as if talking about something. I don't think the police can fix the weird stuff going on in town, but from their relaxed state, it doesn't seem like there's any danger there.
After the two of us walked to the gate of the courtyard, Qiao Wei also waved to the police, and among the several policemen standing at the door, someone immediately waved at us: "You are here just in time!" Something is wrong! ”
The person who shouted to me and Qiao Wei was not a stranger, it was Deputy Sheriff Mustache.
"How did you get here? What's wrong? Qiao Wei asked as he walked over.
The mustache looked at Qiao Wei with a confused expression and said, "You have also seen it, Sheriff Red...... He was supposed to be struck...... Killed! ”
"His body is gone?!" Qiao Wei asked.
The mustache shook his head violently and said, "It's not missing, but it's worse than not seeing, he ...... He's alive! ”
"Alive?!!!" Qiao Wei and I exclaimed in unison.
I didn't study medicine, but I can still judge for myself whether a person dies or not. Redfield was undoubtedly killed by two officers, he was shot three times in the chest, and he died instantly, I don't think there is any chance that such a person can be saved!
"Hey, are you sure you saw Sheriff Redfidel get shot?" A police officer with black hair and brown toad glasses walked over and asked Qiao Wei and me politely.
I've seen him in the police station before, and he's supposed to be the head of these police reinforcements.
"Sure, the sheriff was very emotional, and he also fired, so the two officers shot at him, and we are all sure that the sheriff is dead, and he is in his house......" Qiao Wei explained to the toad mirror what we had seen here before, but he was stunned before he finished speaking!
Not only Qiao Wei, but I also stared at the door and didn't know what to say.
Redfield actually walked out of the house, and patted the bearded deputy sheriff on the shoulder with a smile, don't say anything to save him, he didn't have any signs of being shot at all, he was completely resurrected in place full of blood!
"Old man, I think you should go to the hospital to take a look, I got shot? What the hell are you talking about? Isn't that a good haode for me? Red said with a smile to the bearded deputy sheriff.
The deputy sergeant was in a state of agitation, then forcefully opened Red's hand, and ran down the steps from the sheriff's house in a few steps, standing with me and Qiao Wei.
"See? That's what I mean! Damn, what the fuck, you're exorcists, can you tell me what the hell happened? What the hell is wrong with this town? Am I crazy?!!! The mustache asked in succession as if he were frantic with a frantic glare in his eyes.
It's a pity that Qiao Wei and I can't give any answers, but we can be sure of one thing, Sheriff Mustache is not crazy, it is this weird town that is crazy.
