Volume 1 The Domain of the Night Chapter 7 Sherlock Holmes
......
The people from the Demon Exterminator Department left, and Yin Shui'er said that the case in Xiaokang Village would be investigated in the future.
"It's a big piece of cake."
Xu Mu sighed resentfully, and then looked down at his palm:
"This ...... It is tentatively concluded that it is made of metal, with a dark black epidermis and a front that seems to be able to open. ”
Xu Mu put it in front of his eyes and observed it carefully, and then gently pulled it out, and with a "snap", he took off the cap of the pen, revealing a sharp silver-white metal, and the character "waterman" was engraved on the nib.
"I guess it's called a fountain pen."
Xu Mu's confidence is not very strong, because he has never seen this thing, but in the dark, he feels that it should be called so.
"Buzz ......"
It was the sound of the CPU burning, and Charles was already smoking in his head the moment Xu Mu said the word pen.
Yes, it's called a fountain pen, but it's not something of this world, and the inscription on it, "Waterman", represents its name on the Blue Star.
- The famous detective, the royal pen of Sherlock Holmes!
Charles admired Sherlock Holmes a lot, so he instructed Xu Mu to make one at night, one is to pay tribute to the ancestors, and the other is to facilitate writing, after all, there is only a brush in this world, and he has no interest in penmanship, and the pen is more comfortable to use.
But the memories of these two people are obviously not interconnected, but now it's daytime, how did Xu Mu recognize this thing!
There is also the knife that Xu Mu slashed the ghost baby before, it is not right, Charles has a clear understanding of his host strength, Xu Mu is not an alien, at most, his strength is a little greater than others, and his physical fitness is better than that of ordinary people, and there is nothing special about it, anyway, it is impossible to have that kind of speed and reflexes.
Looking at the fleeting white light in Xu Mu's eyes, Charles was silent.
The gray-white pupils, which are only a characteristic of Xu Mu at night, are now revealed during the day.
Could it be that Xu Mu's other personality can already compete for control of his body during the day?
"It's quite expensive, you still ...... Get up. ”
Charles interrupted suddenly, because at this time, Xu Mu had already taken the pen and walked into Widow Sun's house.
"Tear up!"
With a soft sound, Xu Mu tore off a strip of cloth from the cloth on his upper body, and then slowly unscrewed the resin pen of the fountain pen, his eyes calmly scanning everything in the room.
The door frame shattered by the ability, the green blood flowing on the ground, the falling human head, and a few scattered knives......
Xu Mu recorded all the details that he could observe, recording as he walked, meticulously, and his movements were very professional, just like the legendary detective on the Blue Star.
More like the guy in the night.
"Host, are you still there?"
Thinking of someone, Charles asked in disbelief, he now extremely doubted that Xu Mu's body was controlled by another consciousness, otherwise how could he have such a demeanor?
"Shut up."
Xu Mu gave Charles a blank look, and then began to carefully observe Widow Sun's bedroom.
I saw that here, there were countless dead bodies and human heads of animals on the ground, blood penetrating the wooden floor, and the human head was the single old man Lao Wang from the well-off village next door, although he had escaped the catastrophe of the well-off village last night, but in the end he still died here.
And judging from the degree of decay of those corpses, it must have been at least twenty days since Widow Sun became a ghost.
Xu Mu couldn't help frowning, a strange ghost lurked in the village, and the tiger entered the wolf pack but didn't do anything for more than 20 days, why is this?
Xu Mu couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't want to, in fact, these were useless information, and he didn't observe any special problems.
But this also proves that the mastermind behind this operation has not entered this room in the near future.
Because as long as that person has come in, he will definitely leave a clue, and he will find that this is absolute confidence.
So where would he be?
"The purpose of infecting Widow Sun is to make her destroy the interior of Fengqing Village."
"But last night he didn't control Widow Sun to come out and do evil, which means that he must have watched the whole process of another my vigil on the spot, so he doesn't want to make a fearless sacrifice?"
Xu Mu's eyes narrowed slightly, and the pen in his hand continued to outline lines on the strips of cloth, some thick and some thin, and in a blink of an eye, he roughly drew several mountains one after another, all of which were several highlands near Fengqing Village.
"If I were him, where would I choose?"
Xu Mu slowly moved the pen to a mountain range: "This is the closest to the village, but the view is limited. ”
So Xu Mu drew a cross on the first mountain range.
"It's the highest here, and the visibility is the widest, that is, the southwest corner can't be seen completely, but this is completely opposite to the direction of the strange ghost attack last night, so it's not here."
Xu Mu frowned, then there was only one place left, that is, the cemetery mountain that he could see when he went out.
As the name suggests, that mountain is full of dead people's tombs, but he can't figure it out, why didn't the people behind the scenes choose Wuxing Mountain, where the dark energy is the strongest, and the blessing of the treacherous night is even more ferocious, if he induces the strange ghosts there to attack Fengqing Village, he will definitely not be so easy to drive them away last night.
"The southwest corner, you can't see the southwest corner there, but what is there in the southwest corner."
Xu Mu flipped over the strips of cloth and quickly drew the layout of the southwest corner on the back according to the impression in his mind, which was a mountain col and the least populated place in Fengqing Village.
"Tree."
Xu Mu raised his eyebrows, the only thing that could be seen in that col was the ancient tree.
But a tree that has been dead for more than ten years, what is it worth their trouble to mobilize the strange ghosts to slaughter the village?
"Could it be that the death of this tree has something to do with them?"
Xu Mu closed his eyes and racked his brains to think about it, but the pen in his hand never stopped.
So inadvertently, the pen in his hand seemed to have grown wings, wantonly swaying pen and ink on the strip of cloth, lifting the pen and folding horizontally, carving beams and paintings, and the fog shrouded in the scroll was blown away.
On top of the coarse cloth, the mountains and the dark river are intertwined, and the dangerous places and villages are intertwined, and the painting is exquisite and detailed...... This is a complete topographical map of the Night Domain!
The moment Xu Mu stopped thinking, the thing in his hand was finished, and the stream of consciousness picture stopped, so he lowered his head.
"Smack!"
The pen fell to the ground, Xu Mu looked at the vast map in his hand, and suddenly woke up.
......
