213. First encounter, dead skin

In the warm restaurant, a pair of young men and women who suddenly broke in broke the peace here,

"Excuse me! We need help, please help us call the police! Tsz looked around the adults in the dining room pleadingly, and Daly stood beside her, as if overly frightened.

The waiter's aunt wiped her hands on her apron and walked over, and then frowned at the smell of their bodies, "Don't worry, kid, I'll contact the police immediately, but you have to wait, our county police department is very slow." ”

After speaking, the aunt walked quickly to the back hall.

Trish turned around and pressed his dirty-faced brother's shoulder, "Daley, listen, say what you see, and we'll leave?" OK? ”

Daley didn't say a word, just stared blankly into the air.

"Speak! You have to put this to an end and remind the people here to be careful! Look at me, Daly! ”

"I'm afraidβ€”" Daley turned his cheeks around and looked around, his tone as weak as a seriously ill patient,

"Drink some orange juice to suppress the shock."

The gentle voice seemed to contain the magic of calm, which instantly calmed the two sisters and brothers who were terrified and uneasy, and as soon as they turned their heads, they saw the familiar tall and strong body, like a mountain of light, suppressing all evil and dispelling all gloom.

Trish had a look of surprise on her face, "Dean, why are you here?" ”

"Perhaps it is the will of fate/the law of convergence... It told me that my new friend was in trouble and told me to stay and help. Dean smiled and took the hands of the two siblings and walked to the table in the corner, pushing the sumptuous dinner in front of them, with anticipation and encouragement in his eyes, "Tell me, what happened?" ”

"It's going to affect you." Cui Shi pursed her lips in worry,

"Rest assured, I'm a professional, and I'm the best at dealing with all kinds of dangerous and weird things." Dean photographed his private detective license in front of the two siblings,

Daley carefully examined the information on the license, his hands clenched into fists and released, his dirty face tensed and loosened, and finally slowly poured a sip of juice and spoke,

"You're right, I couldn't control my curiosity and saw something I shouldn't have seen."

Chevrolet trucks that maliciously rear-ended, dilapidated churches, weirdos who dumped corpses, bloody and terrifying cellars... As Daley's trembling narration gradually unfolded before Dean's eyes.

Hundreds of dead.

Although far less than the thousands of people killed by the toad people.

But there is only one person on the other side, and such a crazy killing act is far more evil than a single toad man, even a chameleon and a nocturnal species!

Dean's eyes grew brighter and brighter, as if a hunter had found his prey!

"Wait, the corpse wrapped in the sheets is a handsome young man with black hair and black eyes and a beautiful mole on the corner of his mouth?" Dean picked up a familiar message and abruptly interrupted the boy,

Daley took a deep breath and nodded heavily,

Curious, Tracey asked, "Where have you seen him?" ”

"I saw this young man on the garage's missing person notice, he disappeared on the side of Highway 65 a week ago, leaving only one car behind." Dean calmly reasoned, "Now it looks like he's been killed." And the truck monster you saw between the highway and the church is the culprit of several consecutive disappearances in Haobo County in the past half a month. ”

"I knew that pervert was a serial killer!" Daley slammed his fist on the table as if venting, causing everyone in the restaurant to look sideways.

"But I don't understand," Dean said in a low voice, "You said that there are at least five or six hundred fresh-looking corpses under the church, but there are five or six missing people in Haobo County in the last half month, the number is a hundred times different, where did the extra corpses come from?" Could it be that the guy did a crime somewhere else and was transported back to the church in a truck? ”

"Hundreds of corpses, the movement caused by the movement must last for a long time, why have the state and county police never found out?"

The two siblings listened to Di'an's calm analysis, their faces turned pale, and they couldn't answer.

But Dean himself flashed a whole new hint in front of his eyes, and you took the initiative to trigger the event - the demon driving the truck:

A strange man in a big black trench coat has committed several disappearances in Hobo County and dumped the remains of his victims in the crypt of the church.

Daly even tells you that the cellar contains a huge amount of remains and various tools full of mystery.

You are keenly aware that this guy's identity is not simple, he is more than just a serial killer!

Figuring out who he really is, the mechanism, purpose, and motivation of his series of actions.

Then make a choice.

Indulge, unleash your repressed beastliness, join his killing party, and sow death and fear in Bohao County together!

Or stand in your stubborn position, protect the frightened Tsz siblings, sanction this demon, and make him pay the price for his past evil deeds and be destroyed!

……

Dean didn't hesitate to choose the second way to deal with it, reaching out and pressing the boy's shoulder,

"Daley, go ahead and talk about this cellar."

"The lathe... The table carved with ancient patterns...", Daley gritted his teeth and began to describe, feeling the heat on his shoulders.

Dean noticed that Daley had jumped five percent when he described the image of "a woman being grilled on a stake" on the table.

When Daley said that five or six hundred corpses were embedded in the surrounding walls, like a "madman's version of the Sistine Chapel," the progress jumped another five percent.

The progress has reached 15 percent.

This is obviously a prompt from the system.

Dean took these two important clues to heart, and a gut feeling arose in his mind that the strange man's actions might have something to do with religion.

……

"Do you believe me, Dean? I'm not crazy! The more Daley, whose face was covered with cold sweat, said that he was panicking more and more, and the fear made him collapse, and his tone was raised, and he was about to break his voice.

"Shhhh

And the other eavesdropping guests also had ridiculous and amused expressions on their faces.

No normal person would believe this exaggerated description.

This made Daley even more uneasy, and he looked directly at his two companions, and Tsz took his left hand to show his unreserved trust.

Dean opened his mouth with a solemn face and cleaned a chicken leg, then put the miserable white skeleton on the plate and turned it around.

"Hundreds of living remains under the church sound incredible. But I've seen more twists and turns than that, so Daley, I believe every word you say. ”

Call...

Daley let out a long sigh of relief, and gripped Dean's hand tightly like grasping a life-saving straw, "Dude, it's good to have you understand." ”

Trish smiled gratefully at Dean.

"We're in danger right now," Daley continued, unreservedly speaking, "that truck freak will surely know that we've been there and discovered his secrets, and he'll come and kill me!" ”

"I think I'm pretty good," Dean wiped the corners of his mouth slowly as he wiped the last piece of roasted pork chop, looking into the eyes of the two siblings, "If you trust me, I'll do my best to protect you." ”

"It's too dangerous."

"I can handle it." Dean gave Trish a confident look.

"Kid, answer the phone!" The waiter's aunt suddenly beckoned to the two sisters and brothers in the back hall,

The two of them looked confused for an instant, "Who?" The police? ”

"No, it's another strange lady." Aunt explained,

The two siblings, accompanied by Dean, walked to the back hall to pick up the phone.

"Are you brother and sister together?" A slightly nervous female voice came from the microphone,

Cui Shi nodded, but couldn't remember where he had heard the voice, "Well, together, but who are you?" How do you recognize us? ”

Dean stood behind the girl, trying her best to let go of God's perspective and listen,

"You go into the cellar and find the corpses lying inside, full of pain and fear," the female voice described herself, as if not hearing their questions, "and there is the House of Fear. ”

Daley was stunned for a moment, with a hellish expression on his face, and snatched the microphone, "Who the hell are you?" How do you know what happened to me? ”

"I don't know what kind of demon or hungry ghost that guy is from the dark world," the female voice still said to herself, her erratic voice as if an old witch was telling a prophecy, "I just know that it will keep following you, or other targets, because it can't stop when it smells like..."

Dean, who was listening, was surprised to find that the progress of the investigation began to slowly rise, and the woman on the phone did not talk nonsense.

What is she?

"Daley, Trysch, remember, when you hear the lyricsβ€”"

A rhythmic female voice suddenly came from the microphone,

"Where did you get those eyeballs, the devil is dining..."

"Where did you get those eyeballs, the devil is dining..."

"As soon as this song sounds, it means that the guy is also here, it will bring you terrible things, so terrible that you don't want to dream about it, it will make you fall into the most terrible nightmare, so terrifying that life is worse than death! So as soon as you hear the music, run away! ”

"Scare whom, ma'am!"

Daley hung up the phone with a "clang".

"Uh," Dean frowned as he watched the progress of the investigation that had risen to seventeen percent, "Daley, this lady may know the true identity of the serial killer, you shouldn't hang up." ”

Daley's lips trembled as he looked at Dean with an ugly expression that was about to burst into tears, "I can't listen to it. ”

"Don't worry, no one can hurt you with me here." Dean sighed, "Now wait until the police arrive and escort you to the police station." ”

When the time comes, Dean will go to the church to investigate, or find the mysterious lady who called.

……

Next, Tsz called his mother to report his safety, and then took the trouble to comfort his brother or distract him with interesting topics, and his strong performance was very much appreciated by Dean.

In contrast, the performance of the Bohao County Police Department was so poor that several people waited in the cafeteria for more than an hour, until it was completely dark, and then the two officers were late.

A white male and a black female.

After asking the guests and the two siblings.

The officer apparently did not believe the claim of "a cellar of hundreds of corpses, a madman's version of the Sistine Chapel vault", and instead questioned whether Daley had drunk alcohol and smoked grass, or had hallucinated as he fell through the pipe and fell on his head.

The questioned Daley was furious.

Dean interjected, mentioning the corpse wrapped in a sheet.

"You're sure you saw the missing Jack." The male officer and the black policewoman exchanged a look, and their expressions finally became serious.

"He was lying in a sheet and lost his breath." Daly glared at them and shouted dissatisfiedly,

"Jack's family is in a hurry and is about to be hospitalized, which is an important clue. Let's go back to the police station with us and make a record. The two officers hooked their hands and motioned for them to go outside.

"Don't have to go to church?" Trisch interjected,

"We've called the other guys to confirm the situation."

……

Dean followed the four out of the restaurant, but as soon as they reached the parking lot, Trish and Daley gasped.

Their silver station wagon had been opened and ransacked, and the bag of dirty laundry in the back seat was littered all over the floor.

"Look, look, you still think I broke my head after sucking grass and drinking?" Daley picked up his shirt and pants, one of which had his name written on it, and he yelled at the two stern-faced officers, "I told you there was a serial killer van weirdo who came here with me from church, and he knew I found everything, and he now knows my name!" ”

Dean walked over to him and moved his nose, his keen sense of smell catching some strange smells, the smell of rats, cockroaches, blood, human flesh, mixed preservatives.

But the smell only lingered around the car, and Dean circled around the car, then looked up and found the direction where the smell had disappearedβ€”in the dark night sky.

"Tsk... Will it fly? ”

Progress jumped to 18 percent.

On the other side, two policemen comforted the boy, "Calm down, kid, you go to the county police station, and we will escort you in the back." ”

The two siblings scrambled to start their cars and fled, and Dean got into the back of their car to provide more protection.

Police cars followed.

The two cars drove one after the other on the dark road, like two ferries in the River Styx to the other side.

"I can't figure it out, why did that guy rummage through your stinky clothes and pants?" Cui Shi, who was driving the car, was puzzled,

"He's a pervert, he likes to scare people, kill people, throw corpses, live in a cellar full of dark and rancid stench, and it's not surprising that he likes some other smell." Daley looked out the window at the dark sky and said,

"Do you know hounds?" Dean rested his chin on the headrest and his gaze swept over the two of them, "The hound likes to use his sense of smell to lock on to the scent of his prey and start tracking, he may be tracking you." ”

"No kidding, buddy, that guy is a pervert," Daley was startled by Dean's explanation, reaching out to turn the radio and changing the channel, "but he's also a human being, no dog nose, how to track smells." ”

Dean smiled without saying a word, and God's perspective turned to scan the police car following behind him.

Two police officers are in contact with the county police headquarters via the on-board radio,

"037, are you still on East Ninth Street?"

"Headquarters, this is 037 please continue..."

"Are you sure you're not escorting an arsonist?" The voice on the radio was very surprised, "The old church and cellar where you claimed that hundreds of corpses were buried are on fire, the cellar has also collapsed, and the fire is out of control, it is impossible to get close, and from my experience in wiping the butt in the fire brigade, we can only get a pile of coke in the end..."

……

Dean who was eavesdropping had a look in his eyes, and as soon as the Tsz siblings reported the abnormality of the church to the police, a fire broke out in the church?

Where is there such a coincidence.

This must have been the truck monster who set fire to destroy the evidence.

"He moves so quickly, he's cunning and vigilant."

"So this murderer is a human or humanoid existence that can fly and has a high IQ."

Progress jumped to 19 percent.

……

At this moment, the moving music in the silver station wagon recalls Dean's attention.

"Where did you get those eyeballs, the devil is dining..."

"It's this song!" Daley looked at his sister and Dean excitedly, "Do you remember?" ”

"Where did you get those eyeballs, the devil is dining..."

Dean raised an eyebrow, "The song the mysterious woman played on the phone!" ”

"That's right!" Daley nodded heavily, a hint of panic passing across his face, "She said that as soon as the song sounds, we will be in danger!" ”

"Don't get excited! Daly, it's just a coincidence! ”

"No, listen, the lyrics are exactly the same!"

……

"Bang!"

In the midst of a heated argument between the two siblings, Dean caught a faint sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, coming from behind him.

God's perspective swept back.

He was instantly shocked, what the hell is this?

In the sticky inky night, a black figure fell from the roof of the police car speeding along the road without warning.

It stood on the roof of the car with its feet spread out, and its wide black cloak covered its body, fluttering backwards with the surging cold air at high speed, like dragon wings.

The cold moonlight illuminated a dark and hideous face at the top of the cloak, the skin was smooth and greasy, wet like an amphibian, the eyes were white and bulging out of the inhuman, grinning mouth, the white teeth were as sharp as steel needles, and the nasolabial folds on both sides of the nose bridge extending to the mouth were as deep as cracked ground.

Its forehead, cheekbones, and chin are covered with tentacle-like arthropods that seem to be ready to open around and bite its prey.

Behind the sleek head, the sparse silver hair was tied into a ponytail and splashed back, with a brutal chic.

……

The black policewoman sitting in the passenger seat felt the movement overhead, and without warning, poked her head out of the window and looked into the roof.

For a moment, the eyes of the humanoid figure on the roof of the car met.

Ahhh

A female voice screaming her throat erupted.

The monster's rough left hand grabbed the policewoman's head in an instant and lifted her whole body out of the car window, hanging in midair.

It sneered and touched its right hand behind its waist, and a silver glittering axe appeared in the palm of its hand, and with its rotating wrist danced, aimed at the policewoman's neck, and slashed off!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Bullets buzzed between the lightning and flint.

Several rounds.44Magnum flew out of the silver station wagon in front of the police car, and accurately hit the right wrist of the monster's axe, and the continuous and powerful impact instantly blasted its entire right palm off its arm, and fell into the road with the axe in his palm, and was pulled far away by the speeding car.

But the strange thing is that there is not a single blood splattered from its severed limb.

Another invisible force knocked the monster's left hand away, and the desperate policewoman was protected and fell smoothly to the ground, trembling unconscious.

In two seconds, the tide turned!

In the moonlight, the roof of the car.

The brutal monster that launched the sneak attack stared at his bare right wrist, and his hideous face showed sluggishness and confusion.

Where's my axe?

……

The other policeman, the Tsch siblings, was completely unable to react, only to hear a rush of screams and gunshots, and then saw Dean in the back row suicidally throw himself out of the narrow car window.

"God, don't mess around!"

Tsz quickly stepped on the brakes, and in the billowing white smoke, the car pulled an arc-shaped black scratch against the road.

Dean jumped out of the window and rolled to the ground to get rid of the inertia, got up, clenched the M1900 with his left hand and M1911 with his right hand, and aimed at the figure who jumped from the roof of the police car and sprinted towards him and pulled the trigger frantically.

"Falk squid! Kill in front of me, use me as air! ”

Bang bang bang!

Bullets roar!

Homing bullets, spirit bullets, and .45ACP were fired in turn, all penetrating the monster's right eye with precision, blasting half of its face to pieces.

But it didn't seem to feel pain, it was not affected, its body was running wildly, its black cloak swayed, and a pair of huge black wings that spread in the wind popped out of its back, and its body immediately floated to five meters in the air, and swooped towards Dean with huge inertia.

Ten meters later, the broken brain tissue rained down on Dean's head, and was bounced off by the ghost armor.

Dean stared coldly at its single eye, and when he turned his head, the mental power that had been in ambush for a long time exploded at this moment, turning into a battering ram and smashing it into the chest, smashing it backwards and falling to the ground.

The offensive is far from stopping!

Abyss!

Within ten meters, a majestic darkness descended, and all the light was absorbed by Dean's eyes, sublimating two golden sun wheels, suppressing the clear light of the moon in the sky, and the powerful willpower turned into something tangible, instantly penetrating the monster's soul and paralyzing its struggling body.

It froze in place for a moment.

Dean strode forward with the dog-legged knife, the strength of the waist and spine was transmitted, and the muscles on the arm bulged and twisted one by one, and he slashed with great speed.

The knife flashed, slicing through the bones in the neck like tofu, and a slippery head flew to the ground, rolling around like a ball.

"Not dead yet? Make me a meatloaf! ”

Dean, who didn't receive the kill prompt, slowly closed his five fingers, and suddenly the invisible giant palm wrapped around the headless corpse, rose to a height of ten meters, and slammed it down!

Lift!

Smash down!

In this cycle several times, the monster's hands and feet were smashed one by one, and a cloud of black flesh spread out on the road.

Dean suddenly tingled in his temples, and his sixth sense was strongly alert.

Extremely dangerous sharps are attacking from the front and back!

Dean instinctively lunged to the side.

Whoosh –

Puff...

A series of breaking sounds came from the deep darkness of the night, passing over where he had been.

Gravel splashes.

A spear more than two meters long, a shiny axe blade, and several white crossbows passed him, piercing deep into the road.

And in the moment of delay, a pair of filthy wings eerily popped out of the previous mass of pitch-black flesh, shot into the night sky, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, but the tracking bullet that penetrated deep into its flesh left a scarlet tail in mid-air.

Farther across the road, in the darkness, there was the faint roar of departing trucks.

"You can run away quickly, but you can't."

Dean frowned and pulled out several crosses that pierced the skin and muscles on his right forearm and thigh, and the hideous gap suddenly began to heal itself visibly.

He lifted the cross dart and rubbed it gently, it felt strange, smooth and cold, and there was a wonderful fit in the body.

"Bone weapons? Can you directly penetrate the defense of the ghost armor and hurt my body, what special process is used? ”

Dean rolled his gaze,

"Where did these 'hidden weapons' come from?"

……

"Oh God! Man, are you okay? Where did it hurt? At this time, the Cui Shi sisters and brothers had just gotten out of the car and rushed over nervously.

It was dark, the distance was long, and the battle lasted less than ten seconds.

The two siblings only heard a fierce gunshot, and saw a darkness shrouded in the abyss, and a black shadow flying into the air?
