Chapter 170: Clues
West End, Williams Street.
Because it was already very close to Queens, where the nobles lived, even if he simulated the ability of stealth, Abner did not dare to fly directly over it, but slowly descended from the street near it.
Under Hugh's guidance, the two soon arrived in front of the house number 8.
Abner stared at the house number for a long time, the expression on his face very subtle.
This made Hugh feel a little confused, so she looked around and asked vigilantly and confusedly, "Is there something wrong?" ”
Hearing this, Abner came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "It's nothing ......" It is that there may be a Quaternary remnant under this house.
Taking a deep breath and throwing away the clutter in his mind, Abner simulated the apprentice's ability to "open the door" and led Hugh back into the mansion with a lawn and a garden in front of it.
The house is a two-story house, and the furniture inside is quite messy, and it should have been a long time since anyone took care of it. Only the servant's room on the left side of the house was lit by candlelight, which was supposed to be where the housekeepers slept.
The two walked through the cluttered living room and down the stairs into a fairly spacious basement.
There are no gas pipes here, but there are four metal candlesticks embedded in the walls. Hugh didn't light them before for fear of being discovered, so it was pitch black in the basement at this point.
However, this did not bother Abner, and as soon as he activated the "Ring of Light" ring on his finger, the surroundings became completely bright.
As for whether the light will be discovered by the servant who guards it? That wasn't a problem, as soon as he entered the door, the servant was forced into a "dream".
Instead of first checking on the Assassin lying on the ground, Abner looked around the basement with his "pure white eyes" to make sure that the gray-white door on the corner wall had no signs of being opened, and that there was no other smell of contamination, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
At this point, Hugh walked up to the Assassin, she had no hope, and she had only done her best to obey her destiny and have a clear conscience.
However, upon closer inspection,1 a look of surprise quickly appeared on her face.
"Abner, he's alive."
Hearing Hugh's words, Abner was also stunned, and then walked over quickly.
Similar to Hugh's previous judgment, Abner also felt that this assassin should have been hopeless a long time ago, considering that it had been more than half an hour since he was poisoned, which was supposed to be enough time for him to die four or five times.
"Huh? Isn't this the same Schoko officer who made a big fuss at Inspector Vane's funeral?
"It turned out to be an 'assassin'...... It's no wonder that when I 'retraced' the scene of Caspers' before, I saw him go to the Bar of the Brave to inquire about the extraordinary party......
"However, the poison on his body has been maintained within a range and has not spread?"
Under the illumination of the "Halo of Light", Abner could see the face of the "Assassin" and his current situation: the green light from the wound on his left arm was rising around him, but it seemed to be suppressed back by some force, and the two sides were in a stalemate.
Abner glanced back at Hugh, who immediately understood and said, "This is how he was when he was first injured, the toxin did not spread, but it did not decay either. ”
Hearing this, Abner pondered, then examined Shoko's body closely, and was soon caught by a necklace made of five gemstones of different colors that he wore around his neck.
"It should be this necklace that is working, so he saved his ......life" Abner nodded, he just used the "pure white eye" to analyze it a little, and found that the necklace was using "flesh magic" to continuously restore Shoko's toxin-eroded body, which formed a stalemate with the toxin.
In this way, the treatment is much simpler.
The toxin of the "werewolf" itself is not difficult to get rid of, even Xiao Ke wearing that necklace can hard-resist it, the trouble is only the evil power attached to the toxin.
And to deal with evil, it is naturally the most professional in the field of "sun".
Thinking of this, Abner created the "Sun Holy Water" on the spot and sprinkled it on Shoko's wound, then raised his left hand and aimed the "Ring of Light" ring at him.
The gemstones set in the ring suddenly bloomed a brilliant gold, a sun-like gold!
Immediately afterward, the Dao Dao Golden Mang became more and more pure, and finally evolved into a seal-like projection in the holy water at Xiao Ke's wound.
"I declare that it is effective against evil spirits!"
As Abner's solemn voice echoed, a dazzling golden light also erupted from the holy water, instantly engulfing the strange green light at the wound.
Almost at the same time, the wound on Shoko's left arm began to squirm, and the musculature continued to reorganize and grow, slowly but surely healing.
"It's okay, he estimates he'll be fully recovered tomorrow." Seeing this, Abner smiled and said to Hugh beside him.
Hugh nodded slightly, then she hesitated for a moment, and asked with some hesitation, "Abner, shall we check it out again?" ”
Naturally, she was referring to the villa with the "werewolf" beast.
Abner pinched his chin and thought for a while, then said to himself: Officer Schoko's body is not strong, and he doesn't seem to have any extraordinary items on him that increase his strength...... But even so, he was able to knock the suspected "werewolf" beast five or six meters away......
This suggests that the beast may not be a real werewolf......
I remember in the original book that Marich had told Klein that werewolves could use dark spells to control targets whose poison had been impregnated for a period of time, and turn them into subordinates, turning them into werewolf-like monsters, and that kind of monsters often had a short life......
In this way, the other party is likely to be only Sequence 7, and it is inconvenient to attack in person, so he can only use spells to create monsters to fight the enemy......
Just to investigate, it shouldn't be too dangerous.
Thinking of this, Abner nodded and said, "I'll go to that villa to have a look, you take this Shaw Officer to go back to the detective agency first and wait for me." ”
"Officer Schoko?" Hugh was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, "So you know him." ”
"We've met before." Abner first responded with Hugh, and then solemnly admonished: "It is better to leave this house as soon as possible, and not to come near it again." ”
Hugh had seen from Abner's attitude that something was wrong here, and he had already prepared in his heart, but after hearing this, he breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Understood." ”
She didn't mention following Abner, because she knew that with her own strength, going would only be a delay, but it might affect Abner.
After the two men had finished their discussion, Abner left the Garden House at 8 Williams Street alone and headed for a larger mansion deep down the street.
In his state of invisibility, as soon as he approached the garden of the house, Abner smelled a pungent smell of blood, and he was so frightened that he did not dare to go through the main entrance, but drew a door on one of the side walls and walked through.
He followed the smell all the way to a corner at the back of the house, and then the smell of blood suddenly became stronger.
With the faint moonlight piercing through the clouds, Abner stared at it, but almost spit it out.
The floor is littered with broken leg bones, pelvic bones, feet in high heels, ribs and hair, and on the wall is the corpse of a lion-sized beast that has been completely hollowed out inside!
Vast expanses of bright red were slowly flowing in all directions along the walls and the path behind the house, mixed with a little milky white traces.
Seeing this scene, Abner's face was extremely ugly, and he endured the discomfort, extracted the chaotic aura around him, and carried out a "scene regression".
Soon, pictures unfolded before his eyes:
As soon as the blood moon disappeared, a gentleman in his fifties, with black hair mixed with a lot of silver, returned to the villa from outside, and he did not let the manservant accompany him, but walked around the garden by himself, as if he had something on his mind.
Suddenly, there was a slight movement in the grass of the garden, and the gentleman looked in amazement, and saw a dirty puppet suddenly appear in his sight......
At this point, the picture suddenly stopped, as if it had been forcibly interfered with by some force.
Abner rubbed the corners of his forehead, which were slightly aching because of the interruption of his abilities, and a guess suddenly arose in his heart:
“1-025”?
