Chapter Thirty-Eight: Vampires?
"I don't know what you're talking about, Detective Eric. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info You actually call me a vampire? The kind of character that only exists in the story? I know that everyone calls me that, but it's just a slur. Iyeta denied it, but her eyes grew a little colder, as if she wanted to swallow Eric alive.
Having captured this detail, Eric was even more sure of his own thoughts. "It's not about your nickname. As I said, I've seen your kind before, and even fought to the death. So it's clear to me that vampires don't just exist in stories. As he spoke, his mind drifted back to the night he had fought the vampires. He still haunts his heart to this day.
The murderer of the Ode tragedy is a vampire. Even after the case is solved, only a very small number of people know the true identity of the murderer.
After all, it is precisely because the prisoner is a vampire that many traces of Ode's noble mansion can be explained. In the subsequent tracking operation, it is not surprising that ordinary police officers could not catch a vampire. These supernatural creatures are often able to evade tracking with their unusual abilities, and a few of them can even fly. Eric was also able to track down successfully because he had the Alpha Eye. And even with the Beta Eye for combat, defeating the vampire is still not an easy task. On the night of Conced, Eric nearly died. In the end, though, he won with the silver bullets that vampires feared.
If Iyeta is a vampire, it's not hard to understand why she stole Jasmine's silver earrings. I'm afraid that in the days when Jasmine just received this gift, the delighted Jasmine hung them on her ears all day long. At this time, just staying by Jasmine's side can make the head of the regiment uncomfortable and go crazy.
Naturally, Ieta did not associate the detective with the Ode tragedy that shocked Odin. "Well, even if they exist. But you say I'm a vampire, and there should always be proof. ”
"Lion fodder. Eric's words were short and powerful.
"Feed?"
"Yes, the feed for the 'chickens' of the prairie lion, that is, the dead chickens that the chickens eat. Maybe you don't know, I once went into its cage for some reason. ”
Iyeta suddenly fell silent.
"Looks like you're remembering. The blood of the dead chickens was not like it had been drained, but more like it had been sucked alive by something. And that's something that only a vampire can do. But I have to say that you are a kind vampire, drinking chicken blood instead of human blood, which should be difficult for you. And you're a thrifty vampire who feeds dead chickens that have sucked blood. Can you imagine how shocked I was? I couldn't believe it when I saw it. Eric gushed, ignoring Iyeta's worsening complexion.
"This only proves that there are vampires in the circus, why do you conclude that it is me?" Iyeta said in a deep voice, bowing her head.
Eric pursed his lips, thinking that he had used his magic eye in the circus to see her identity. The color was almost identical to that of the murderer of the Oude massacre. And it's inconvenient to tell Iyeta. "Sorry, no comment. I'm sure you're a vampire though, and that's enough. ”
"Well, I'll admit it. Iyeta, who had kept her head down, slowly raised her head. On either side of her open mouth, two fangs were exposed, which weren't there. The group leader, who had an increasingly bewitching temperament, licked his lips: "Even if I'm a vampire, it has nothing to do with the death of that named Lyle." I didn't quench my thirst with his blood. Everyone saw it, and it was the lion who bit him to death!"
Eric swallowed, baring his fangs as a red flag to him. That means that the young lady in front of him may burst out at any time and attack him: "Calm down." I'm not having a say anything about your vampire identity. Although most people hate vampires...... Okay, let's not talk about that, let's talk about how you killed Baron Lyle. ”
Iyeta crossed her arms over her chest, with a disdainful sneer on her lips. She wanted to see what the detective in front of her had investigated.
Seeing that Ieta was silent, Eric said to himself, "First of all, you already know the fact that Jasmine is in a relationship with Lyle. He followed the circus through ten towns, how could such a regular customer not attract your attention. So I think so, I think so. In this way, you have a motive to kill. You're afraid that the man will pry your pillars away, and then the circus show will undoubtedly be in trouble. ”
Iyeta touched her chin with her hand and listened with interest.
"But if you are as shrewd, you must find a way to keep yourself from suspicion. So you come up with a clever plan to get rid of Lyle through the mouth of the lion. You find a way to sprinkle the powder of the geranium on Lyle's head and use some words to get him on stage to assist in the performance. Probably 'if you dare to stick your head in the lion's mouth, I'll agree with you to take Jasmine' or something. By the time Lyle actually performs on stage, his head will be bitten by a lion who can't help but sneeze. A life. After Eric finished speaking, he still couldn't see a trace of panic on Iyeta's face, and couldn't help but say again: "I knew before that Lyle would come to you yesterday with a lot of money during the day, and wanted to discuss with you about him and Jasmine. You have plenty of time to get started. ”
Bang bang bang. Iyeta clapped her hands.
"Indeed, your story is wonderful. But that's just reasoning. Unfortunately, I can tell you very well that he did come to me yesterday, but I was busy backstage preparing for the show and didn't see him, but let the girls blow him away. It was the same before, so I never met the guy called Lyle face-to-face. Disappointed you. She laughed.
Eric frowned, and continued, "As I said, you murdered Lyle. You must have an accomplice, perhaps it was your companion who met him. I don't know who it is, but it's most likely Connie. Although geranium is rare, she is a pharmacist who can concoct voice-changing potions, and it makes sense for her to have a little bit of geranium. ”
Iyeta was calm and spread her hands: "Then you can go and investigate, whatever you want to stay here." As long as you can find out that any of us ever met with him, that's evidence. ”
That's when Eric felt like he had met his opponent.
But his detective senses tell him that Iyeta is the murderer of Lyle. But why is she so confident and so fearless? Was she really sure that her trick could bypass everyone's eyes without leaving any evidence?
"I haven't slept all night, and I'm a little sleepy now. Ieta didn't wait for him to think, and looking at the dumbfounded Eric, she mercilessly gave the eviction order: "Mr. Detective, I think it's time for you to go out." If you have any clues, you are always welcome to come back. ”
