The last rays of afterglow dissipated, and it was night again in Gotham.

Darkness reigns again, the daylight is only accidental, and darkness is eternal.

Gordon and Harvey went to a small cottage and looked at the horribly dead corpse while remaining silent.

Edward, as a staff member of the Forensic Identification Section, was fiddling with the corpse, collecting various evidence.

The deceased was Frass, a policeman.

Although James Gordon knows that he is a black cop and has done all kinds of bad things, now that Frass is dead, he still has to do his duty as a police officer to find out the murderer.

Edward stood up, removed the bloody rubber gloves from his hands, and said, "Preliminary detection, Frass should have been cut with a sharp weapon, causing excessive blood loss and death. However, the murderer was very cruel, and he had hundreds of wounds on his body. Frass was tortured for a long time before he died. ”

James Gordon's face was a little ugly, this method was too cruel.

But also to blame for Frass herself.

Originally, when Sui Feng said that he was cursed, James Gordon suggested that he accept Sui Feng's advice and tell everything he knew. Anyway, the probability of the death penalty is very low, and the big deal is to squat in the Black Gate Prison for a lifetime.

But Frass rejected James Gordon's suggestion and left unwillingly.

James Gordon is also going to go to his house to step on a spot to see if there will really be a ghost asking for his life.

But he found out that Frass had not returned home at all.

The villa they were in was a "safe house" that Frass had quietly bought, located in the upper part of the city, where the wealthy gathered.

Frass fortified the villa like a fortress, and in order to deal with the so-called "evil spirits", he also went to the Gotham church to buy the so-called "holy water" at a large price, and hung crosses in his house.

However, the bottle of holy water has been reduced to splinters all over the ground, and the cross on the wall has been cut off quite a bit.

Obviously, these relics did not save Frass from life.

However, this also made James Gordon breathe a sigh of relief, holy water and crosses are useless, and the murderer should not be the so-called evil spirit.

James Gordon asked Edward: "Are there any signs of a goal?" ”

Edward replied, "Yes, it was the second-floor window that was smashed open. That's where the killer probably got in, but we found some signs of climbing on the façade...... It's quirky. ”

"How weird?"

"It's not like a human action, I'll show you it."

Edward led Gordon and Harvey to the outside of the villa, pointed to the exterior wall and said, "There are a few shoe prints here." ”

James Gordon was surprised and said, "Are you sure you're not mistaken? ”

This is a stone brick façade with gaps of less than half a centimeter.

A normal person can't even put a finger in, but the murderer actually buckled such a shallow gap and lined up on the second floor?

"According to my estimates, the killer's finger strength is very large, probably ...... He can pinch the steel plate with two fingers and hang himself in mid-air. ”

Edward's description was so vivid that James Gordon immediately said, "In other words, the killer may have been a professional rock climber." ”

Harvey interrupted, "Where are the climbers in Gotham, I didn't even know it was a sport. ”

"No matter who it is, the suspect will definitely not be an ordinary person anyway."

Edward continued, "Detective Gordon, this house is on camera. ”

James Gordon was pleasantly surprised: "Is the surveillance on?" ”

Edward nodded and said, "Yes, it's rare, isn't it, there really is a working surveillance in Gotham." ”

"Well done, Edward."

James Gordon praised and was about to check the surveillance footage, but Edward added: "I've seen the video, and it does capture the murderer, but ...... I would like to remind both of you to be mentally prepared. ”

Harvey was taken aback by Edward's gloomy tone, and couldn't help but scold: "Edward, don't joke about this kind of thing, or I'll kick your ass hard!" ”

Edward squinted his eyes at Harvey, and then said, "I'm just a friendly reminder, I still have work to do, so let the two of you go and see it yourself." ”

When Edward turned around, a hideous expression flashed across his face.

Harvey Bullock, kill you before kidnapping the mayor!

Gordon and Harvey naturally did not notice Edward's malicious intentions, and came to the monitoring room of the villa together.

I don't know what Fras has done, but surveillance has been installed in all corners of the villa. You know, it's not cheap, and the cost of the videotape alone is heart-wrenching.

The murder took place during the day, and the tape was still inserted inside the machine.

James Gordon tried to adjust the time, and soon saw the scene of the murder happening.

A tall, tightly wrapped figure appeared on the second floor.

Frass was sitting in his room drinking, and he was acting a little nervous, holding a bottle in one hand and a double-barreled shotgun in the other.

The sound of the killer breaking through the window alarmed Frass, who threw the bottle, grabbed his shotgun and rushed out.

The two met in the hallway on the second floor, and Frass did not hesitate to pull the trigger.

The bullet erupted and hit the killer directly.

But the killer was only knocked back a few steps by the impact, and then continued towards Flas unscathed.

Flas was so frightened that he pulled the trigger again, but the second shotgun had no effect, and the killer only took a few steps back before regaining his footing.

Frass took out a bottle of holy water from his pocket and threw it at the killer. The result is worse than the bullet, and it can't even repel the murderer.

Frass had a nervous breakdown and ran to the first floor screaming.

But the murderer jumped directly over the railing and jumped directly to the first floor, stopping Frass.

Immediately afterward, the killer drew an axe and slashed at Fras.

It is not known whether it was unskilled or deliberate, but the axe only cut a bloody mark on Frass chest, but it was only a skin wound.

Flas frantically fled from his house, constantly smashing the so-called holy water bottle and cross at the murderer, but the murderer was so much stronger than him that this method had no effect at all.

As if playing with his prey, the killer kept slicing Flass's body with an axe, but he didn't leave a fatal wound. Until Frass fell to the ground due to excessive blood loss, the murderer began to stomp his body wildly with an axe, I don't know how many times, until Frass was covered with blood and flesh on the upper half of his body.

So far, it's just an ordinary killing.

But just after Frass was completely dead, the killer stood up and lifted his hood and mask.

Upon seeing the murderer's appearance, Harvey couldn't help but exclaim, "Oh my God, damn it, what is this?!" ”

James Gordon also gasped.

Because what they saw was a hideous pig's head.

Instead of a mask, the murderer had a pig's head, because the two saw the pig's head open its mouth, revealing a mouth full of fangs.

They only now understood why Edward had prepared them mentally.

The visual impact was so terrifying that it creeped out to the two detectives who were used to seeing corpses.

Harvey trembled and said, "The evil spirit turns out to be real, James, you say I can't go to church to confess now?" ”

James Gordon was silent.

This Gotham is really getting crazier.
