Chapter 16: Detective Henry 2 (signed)

Henry pointed to the bed without blood stains in front of him, and said confidently: "First of all, a person's blood is about 8% of the body's weight, but judging from the blood stains on the beds at the scene, the amount of blood on each bed is more than a child, which means that two or three children sleep in each bed."

But you look at this bed, it's clean, but you've only found one survivor, and of course that's not conclusive evidence. ”

Then he squatted down, pointed to the blue fluorescent footprints and said, "Look at the footprints here, they don't look like they were left by the starting posture during the running race?" ”

"And this handprint on the railing, what kind of posture can leave such a handprint?"

Henry didn't dislike it, he climbed onto the bloodstained bed next to him, lay on it, then grabbed the railing, and carried himself to the ground little by little with both hands.

"That's the only way to go! This way of getting out of bed has no advantages other than being quiet and discreet! And quiet and seclusion can only be to hide from the monsters in your mouth! ”

"This means that on the night of the monster's murder, a child found out, and then he crept under the bed, one foot against the wall, quietly waiting for the time to escape!"

Ward was a little unresponsive, "Huh!?" And what about a child? ”

"Taken away by this underground child!" Henry said categorically, "If normal people want to run fast, they can't help but grab the fixed items around them and use them to speed up!"

But if you look at the railings around this, there are no sweat stains! This shows that the hands of such a child were not empty at that time, and the only explanation is - he was holding his companion! ”

"How's that monster's flexibility?" Henry asked curiously.

“... Slow, but huge, like a giant, on the whole, the ability to move is about the same as a normal adult! ”

Henry nodded, and led Ward towards the middle of the dormitory, next to a collapsed bed.

"Look! This is where they escape! Henry pointed to the collapsed bed in the middle, and the railing next to it still showed signs of being scratched.

"That monster is eating... When killing the children here, he put his hand on the bed, and then it broke the bed board and fell, and the two children took the opportunity to run out! ”

There was a deep scratch on the wall opposite the bed, and even the bricks inside were exposed, and Henry pointed to the scratch and continued:

"The monster that fell to the ground tried to reach out and grab the fleeing child, but it didn't, leaving only marks on the wall!"

Henry observes and explains all the way, leading Ward all the way to a path.

On the sandy path that no one had passed for a long time, a clear series of small footprints remained on it, and Henry followed the direction of the small footprints, and walked a few steps beside it.

"Look at the depth of my footprints, compared to this, the weight is much higher than that of a normal child, which is enough to indicate that a child escaped from the monster with his companion in his arms! And escape along this path! ”

"Pap-papa-pap-" After Henry finished explaining, Ward was already convinced, and applauded him uncontrollably.

"Mr. Henry, would you be interested in coming to work in our department?

As long as you are willing to come to our department, not only will the events of this orphanage today be completely declassified for you, but there will be more such strange things in the future, as long as you are willing to watch, you can completely see and vomit! ”

Henry had some heart, but he was more worried, Ward's department should be specialized in dealing with this kind of anomalous event, it was well-organized, and from the point of view of being able to easily mobilize himself, the force was also extremely powerful.

If this kind of organization wants to join in, the background check must be very strict, and can the fake background fabricated by itself stand up to the investigation?

Even if he joins in after investigation, what if he wants to get out later? With this kind of tight organization, it is estimated that it will be difficult to get out.

But entangled in his 200-year-old immortal secret, seeing that there was a chance to decipher it, Henry was also a little unwilling to give up this opportunity.

Seeing that Henry was a little entangled, Ward was not in a hurry to urge, but said: "Mr. Henry, you don't have to make a decision in a hurry, you can go back and think about it for a while."

Originally, the event was over and you were required to sign a non-disclosure agreement. But for now, I can wait until you give me a reply before I decide whether to sign or not.

Now let me send you home for a good rest, and hopefully in a few days, you will give me a happy reply! ”

...

Davy, who was in the house, suddenly sneezed a few times, interrupting his workout rhythm and letting go of his sister, whom he had taken as a dumbbell.

"How can you sneeze without a cold? Unlucky! David rubbed his itchy nose and looked at the sky, which was close to evening.

"Skye, stop playing! Pack up our things, I'll go buy some food, and we'll get out of here tomorrow morning!" ”

"Got it, brother!"

Starting to walk in the underworld, David walked through the wall, walked out of the house, and saw that there were no people around, and then he revealed his figure and ran towards the convenience store in the distance block.

...

Just a few blocks away, Ward drove Henry in his car towards the house of David and Skye.

"Mr. Henry, do you live in such a place?" Ward looked at the swaying addicts on the side of the street, and finally couldn't help but ask.

When Henry heard this, he smiled wryly and said, "No, I just arrived in New York, which is the inheritance of my elders, and I didn't know before I came that the environment here is so ... Abominable. ”

"Do you want me to find a hotel for you, the environment here may not be suitable for you"

"No need, I also need to go to the house to pick up some of the elder's relics, I need to come here once, and I'll leave here tomorrow."

Ward also nodded when he heard this, and said, "Then you'd better not go out at night, and close the doors and windows, it is estimated that it will not be peaceful here." ”

Henry nodded and said, "I wrote it down, thank you for your concern"

Soon after, when the destination arrived, Henry got out of the car, waved goodbye to Ward, and then turned his head to look at the house in front of him.

The floor that Henry had installed with his own hands in front of the door had rotted, and the flowers that had once bloomed on both sides of the door were also left in pots, and Henry carefully stepped over the rotten floor, took out the key and stuffed it into the keyhole.

The 'click' door opened.

The room was not as dusty as he had imagined, and Henry had some doubts.

"Huh?" The solid wood cabinet at the door, although somewhat rotten, was clean and had obviously been cleaned recently.

Henry frowned, his doors and windows were all high-priced custom-made, even if they had not been maintained for many years, it was completely impossible for ordinary petty thieves to invade them. What's more, he had already observed outside the house just now, and there was not the slightest sign of invasion outside.

How did this intruder get in?

'Knock-knock-knock-'

Henry's ears moved, he heard the slight footsteps coming from upstairs, picked up the umbrella next to him, and quietly walked towards the second floor.
