Chapter 45: Welch's Diary

"This is the location of this mission."

When Dunn. When Smith arrived at the mission site with Anthony and Lunan, a long cordon had been set up by the superintendent's personnel outside the villa, and no idlers were allowed to approach.

However, there are still a lot of passers-by or spectators who eat melons around it, who are very interested in the anomaly here, and gather in groups to discuss.

Gossip is human nature.

Anthony looked around at the crowd and didn't notice Ince. Zangwill's figure, but thinking about it, he probably only dared to hide in an unknown small room and secretly planned a plan.

After all, the failure of the seal "008" once was enough to make him have a psychological shadow.

"Hello! Inspector! ”

On the other side, Dunn had already shown his ID and led Anthony into the villa under the respectful gaze of the guards.

As a night watchman, it is also common to have the privilege of a superintendent's department.

It's a villa with a garden, and to be honest, it doesn't look much different from Anthony's 8 William Street, and probably most of the single-family villas are of this type.

Of course, Anthony's house is unrenovated and uncared for, and it doesn't look as pleasing to the eye as Welch's villa.

Walking all the way to the mission room, Dunn opened the door first, and a foul smell suddenly rushed towards him.

It was the smell of corpses alone.

It's only June, and the rate at which untreated corpses decompose is always staggering.

"Mr. Inspector, after our investigation and judgment, it is confirmed that the two victims chose to commit suicide in a strange way and ended their lives, in order not to make a mistake in your judgment, we did not move the location of the body."

Seeing Dunn's arrival, a man in a superintendent's uniform greeted him and said with a solemn face.

It can be seen that he is no stranger to Dunn, and may even have executed cases with each other.

"Hmm..."

Dunn nodded slowly, his previously lazy expression suddenly becoming aggressive as he scanned the room.

As an extraordinary person who had seen a lot of strange events, he felt that he could already make up his mind that this task must involve the extraordinary realm, and it was indeed up to them to take over the night watchman.

"Leonard, please let Mr. Neil come here, the situation here requires his abilities."

After the discerning police officer and his subordinates all withdrew from the villa, Dunn turned his head to look at Leonard on the side and said.

Although he is an extraordinary person in Sequence 7, due to the limitations of his ability, he has no place to do anything about such a scene, so he can only turn to old Neil, who is a "voyeur".

"Okay."

Leonard nodded and turned to leave.

Dunn, on the other hand, stayed in the room with Anthony, searching for valuable clues.

"Mr. Hearst, what do you think caused them to commit suicide?"

Flipping through a few books in the room, Dunn asked casually.

If you want to find a breakthrough in a case, it is not enough to rely on one person's ideas alone, you must brainstorm in order to achieve better results.

"Hmm... In my experience, they may have been affected by some unknown force, most likely the seal, but I have searched with my abilities and have not found any spiritual objects in this apartment. ”

Anthony said, reaching out and snapping his fingers, and the wind in the room suddenly whistled, and the constant sound echoed in Dunn's ears, making his expression slightly startled, and then returned to normal.

It seems that Mr. Hearst's ability is much stronger than he imagined...

Dunn nodded, thinking in a divergent mind.

He felt that if his opponent was a Sequence 6 powerhouse like Mr. Hearst, he might not be able to hold out his mouth to sing poetry or pull him into a dream, and he would be cut in half by this fierce romance.

Thankfully, this is just a hypothetical...

Dunn didn't ask any more, as Anthony's statement was no different from his guess.

Among the events he has experienced, eight of the ten extraordinary cases are most likely the "masterpieces" of seals, and almost all of them are seals that do not have the characteristics of "living", but even so, they will cause unimaginable harm to weak ordinary people.

Just like this suicide case.

"Captain, this seems to be Welch's diary."

Suddenly, Anthony's voice immediately attracted Dunn's attention, and he hurriedly walked over, took the diary wrapped in brown paper from his hand, and opened it.

"May 13th, it's not long before my graduation defense, oh goddess, I hope I can pass this defense and get a good job, at least I can move out of this messy, noisy apartment at night, I can't stand its dirty, excrement-strewn bathroom, well... I think I should, at the very least, have my own bathroom. ”

"May 27th, oh Goddess above, what I found, a notebook from the Fourth Age! This is a great gift for a student like me, who loves history! However, I think I need to decipher the text before I can get the knowledge and content I want, and I might be able to ask Klein and Naya to help me. ”

"On June 18th, the graduation defense was finally over, and I was finally able to concentrate on studying this notebook, and in the past half a month, I have already decoded a small amount of the text with Naya, but this is far from enough, we still need more words to interpret. Klein finally agreed to my invitation, and I'm excited to see what the trio will find! ”

"On June 20th, it was simply fantastic, the first page of the note had been successfully deciphered! Since its author is a member of the 'Antigonus' family, it should be called 'Antigonus Notes'! ”

"On June 26, these contents... What exactly is it? I don't dare to look through it anymore, it makes me feel terrified, it can't be a simple notebook! ”

The contents of the diary come to an abrupt end here, and the last date is June 26, which is the day before yesterday.

After going through everything, Dunn closed it with a slight heavy breath, his brow never furrowed.

The contents of this diary played a crucial role in the case, but it was not noticed by the superintendents who came to investigate, but only after the arrival of the night watchman, that is, after the arrival of Anthony and Dunn.

It's like there's a big man-made hand controlling it all.

Is that the notebook from the Fourth Age? It should have the property of being "alive".

Dunn was guessing, and he also had a headache for such a tricky seal, because the disappearance of the notebook would make it several times more difficult for them to solve the case.

It looks like his hairline is going to move up a few centimeters again.
