The sky was foggy, and I couldn't tell what time it was.

Walking alone on the streets of London, Li Quan silently observed the European-style buildings with a very classical flavor on both sides of the street. Dylan's memories of the previous owner of this body kept tumbling in his mind, slowly emerging in front of him.

Here is medieval England, resembling the background of the 16th-17th centuries of the previous earth.

It can be seen from historical materials that Europe was in a state of great explosion during this period, Russia, Mughal countries, France, Ottomans, and Austria were in their heyday, but the trend of democratic thought was gradually ignited, and the European seafaring movement and colonization of the American continent had the deepest influence. Academically, the Enlightenment that arose in Western Europe began to challenge the ideology of the Church and spread the fruits of science to all levels of society, while outside Europe also came into contact with this trend through missionary and trade, resulting in a small academic revival movement.

In addition, due to commercial needs, some technologies were born and became the precursors of the Industrial Revolution. Outside of technology, production and management methods are gradually changing in Western Europe: the traditional hereditary apprenticeship system is gradually being destroyed, and factory production methods are beginning to rise. Artistically and culturally, neoclassicism, which traces the Greek and Roman styles, prevailed in the Western world and influenced court art in India and China. But in the same way, the influx of cultural goods from China and Oceania into Europe has caused exoticism in the upper class of the Western world.

At this point, you walk down the streets of London and can see things from all over the world. Chinese fans, Indian curries, Germanic sausages, French perfumes, all kinds of people walk here. Li Quan could be sure that the few people on the side of the street, walking with their heads bowed against the corner, must be Japanese. The Japanese in this era are really only 1.5 meters tall, and a few Japanese men look like dwarfs.

If you only look at the cultural background, you really think that you have traveled through time and space to the Middle Ages. The reason why we can be sure that this is not the earth is because there are no scholars in this world, such as Galileo, Michelangelo, and Calvin. Moreover, the trajectory of this world's history is extremely similar to the map of the world and the earth, but it is different.

But none of this matters, the important thing is that according to Dylan's memory, there are wizards, bloods, and werewolves in this world.

In the 23rd century of China, Li Quan was a very well-known supernatural fan in the circle, and everything related to supernatural magic would arouse his great interest. What suicide holy places, cannibal tribes, ten ghost towns, and three spiritual fields, Li Quan has traveled all over. But I didn't find it, there was a little bit of supernatural and fantasy stuff, and I had traveled half the world, but I hadn't even seen a ghost.

In the end, he rented a boat and sailed to Bermuda, and then fell into a sea nest. In order to pursue these supernatural and fantastic things, Li Quan paid the price of his life, and now he has finally got his wish.

The past is like smoke, now that I have come to this world, everything in the past is regarded as a dream, and in the future, I will live in this world as Dylan.

From now on, my name is Dylan.

......

Dylan took the money from the bank and walked home.

Passing by a café, attention is drawn to a group of people sitting in chairs outside the café door, discussing the murder. It's not that Dylan wants to listen to them, it's just that the slightly plump middle-aged man is talking a little too loud.

"Gentlemen, do you know? It is said that two more bodies were found in the woods on the outskirts this morning. ”

"What's so strange about finding a corpse, the police in Scotland Yard are not as good as police dogs, and there are no dead people in London now. ”

"Trust me George, this time things are different, this time it is said that it was a vampire who did it. ”

"Vampires... Really... Oh my God..."

Looking at a group of gentlemen dressed as men, screaming in horror, Dylan couldn't help but feel a little funny. This group of people lives in the same city with the blood clan every day, but they don't even know a little basic common sense about this group.

So, it's terrible to be uneducated.

After dinner, when I returned to my room, it was already 6 o'clock in the evening. Dylan poured out all the money in his purse, and the pile of coins scattered on the table, all of which added up to less than 10 pence.

Out of money·····

Housing prices in a big city like London are expensive, and even if you don't eat or drink, 10 pence is only enough to pay another half a month's rent at most, and now you have to think about how to get more money.

While Dylan was worrying about the money, there was a knock on the door.

Knock knock knock·····

"The door is not locked, please come in. ”

Dylan grabbed the coins from the table and stuffed them back into his trouser pocket.

When I looked up, it turned out to be a handsome guy.

The man was a young man of twenty-seven or eighteen years old, with pale blonde hair hanging naturally down on his shoulders, his facial features were as square as if they were carved from marble, but they did not look rough, and his royal blue eyes glowed with magic in the dim light.

He wore a pair of one-sided glasses on his face, a staff of civilization in his hand, a delicate pocket watch hanging from his breast pocket, and a new gown. Judging by his attire, this is a standard British upper-class celebrity.

The man took off his hat and saluted gracefully, "Good day, dear Mr. Dylan." ”

After Dylan returned the salute, the man continued, "I'm sorry to excuse me, my Lady Wencent, I have come today to entrust you with something. ”

It's really a lack of sleep and a soft pillow, and I'm worrying about where the money will come from, and there is just business coming to the door.

Dylan suppressed the secret joy in his heart and asked quietly, "I don't know, what can I do for you, dear Mr. Vincent." ”

Vincent said in a very elegant tone: "Have you heard? Two bodies were found in the woods on the outskirts this morning. After saying that, he paused slightly, looked at Dylan's reaction, and continued: "It is said that this incident was done by a vampire, I don't know what Mr. Dylan thinks about this matter?"

Hearing Vincent's words, Dylan raised his eyebrows, carefully organized his words in his heart, and after a moment of silence, he said, "With all due respect, I can't make any comments until I see the actual situation." So, if you want to ask me what I think, I'm afraid I have to look at the scene of the crime and the body before I can speak. ”

Hearing my remarks, Vincent said with a hint of a mysterious smile on his face: "Then Mr. Dylan, can you please find out for me who is responsible for this case?" As he spoke, he took out a bag of coins from his pocket and gently placed it on the table.

Seeing the bulging money bag, Dylan's eyelids jumped, and he immediately said in a big way: "Of course, I don't have any reason to refuse the customer's commission, then this matter will be left to me, please rest assured." ”

After receiving an accurate reply, Vincent put his hat on and replied, "Well, I'll come back in three days, and hopefully I'll see what I want to see from you then." With that, he turned and left the room.

Watching the client Wencent leave, Dylan grabbed the money bag on the table. Gently tossed and caught in his hand, the sound of the coin rattled in the air, making a crisp and beautiful sound.

I opened the money bag and counted it, and it turned out to be a bag full of gold coins, which was 50 pounds, enough money for me to use in London for a while. He is really a generous client, if there is such a business every week, Dylan can maintain a rich life in London, and detective is really a high-income profession. So now, about my initial commission. Where do I start?

Dylan is holding his chin in his right hand, I don't think I'm going to look into the case······

The next day

Dylan woke up early, washed his face, brushed his teeth, and went out in the dark. It's not that I deliberately get up early, it's just that people in this era are normal, except for listening to music and watching opera, there is really nothing to have a pastime at night, go to bed early at night, and naturally get up early in the morning.

After a night, Dylan had cleared his mind, and the clues to the case could definitely be found at the police station. The police at Scotland Yard are incompetent, basic clues are always available, and the most unfortunate can also be seen there where the bodies of the victims can be seen.

As Dylan's current detective, he took the initiative to take on this case, and if he can understand the case smoothly, he should still be able to get a bonus. Whether the case can be solved in the end will be discussed at that time.

After a 30-minute walk, I arrived at the carriage shop, hired a carriage with the remaining 10 pence, and after giving the address, the carriage arrived at the police station at Scotland Yard in about half an hour.

In this era when there are no cars, if the family does not have the conditions to keep a carriage and a coachman, it is really not convenient to travel.

Upon entering the police station, Dylan saw two men arguing violently, with Sheriff John Peel with his back to the gate and Ms. Jane Austen arguing with him.

Ms. Austin said to Sheriff John with emotion, "I've had enough! All I need is a definite answer to when the police station will be able to show me my husband's body. ”

Sergeant John said with a helpless expression: "I'm sorry, ma'am, please trust us police, all this is to ensure your personal safety." We'll let you know if it's time to identify the body. ”

"Yes. Maybe wait until tomorrow, our Director Wallace will have a different opinion, wait and see. With that, Ms. Austin left the police station in a rage.

Watching her leave, Sergeant John exhaled with relief, and then when he looked up, he saw Dylan standing in the doorway, and greeted, "Oh, Dylan! With that, he walked over, grabbed Dylan's arm, and walked towards the police station.

As he walked, he said to himself: "This is a troublesome matter, the identity of the dead person is not ordinary, we can only suppress it for three days at most, and after three days, the newspapers and troublemakers will make a storm in the city." The most troublesome thing is that this matter does not see the light of day at all. ”

"Who died?" asked Dylan.

Sheriff John replied, "The deceased's name was Hobbes, and he was just a musician, just a little commoner. But Jane Austen, the wife of the deceased, was the daughter of the Commissioner of Revenue. ”

The two walked through the corridor to the morgue under the police station, and when they walked to the bed, Sergeant John lifted the white cloth and revealed a pale face, and the deceased had no injuries on his body, except for two small holes in his neck.

He glanced up at Dylan and continued, "The cause of death was blood loss, all the blood in my body was drained, and if I can't solve the case as soon as possible, I'll be in big trouble." Not only will I have to endure the wrath of the people, but even our bureau chief will not let me go easily. ”

Dylan glanced at the corpse and returned nonchalantly, "So, how can I help you?"

The sheriff took out the money bag from his pocket and threw it to Li Quan, saying, "We need an answer, a plausible answer, do you understand?"

Dylan looked at the money bag in his hand and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter what happened, the important thing is that people need a result now." And I will give you a satisfactory answer, don't worry. ”

Dylan knew in his heart that the job of the police was sometimes not to find out the truth, but to calm the hearts of the people. As long as the people's hearts are at peace, the society will be able to run smoothly, and the police will have something to eat.
