Chapter 20: Stupid Humans

The noise was loud enough to wake up the other guests in the inn - although the guests in the Dendar Hotel were sparse all year round, the horse bandits always had to turn into good citizens and go to the town once in a while to spend their money, which was a secret that everyone knew was the only inn in the town that survived to this day. And these people are often much more vigilant than ordinary people, and as soon as they hear an abnormal noise, they will immediately come out with weapons to investigate.

After the man outside the window finished slashing, he was surprised that he had no merit with such a vicious shot, but he didn't dare to fall in love anymore, so he turned around and drifted away.

Luo Songxi stood in front of the window, although he was still hesitant to chase down. He has always been the only one in the wasteland, but today he was beaten twice, and he was inevitably angry in his heart. But at this time, another "ding" sounded in his head.

"It is my duty to ensure the safety of the bearer by giving a forewarning warning in the event of a mortal threat to the bearer, but please note that the bearer -

"First, it is not easy to obtain the inheritance, and it is even more difficult to complete the first inheritance task, so please be sure to correctly assess your own strength and do not do unnecessary things. ”

"Second, I can only obtain information through the perception of the inheritor, so my ability to predict danger is actually very limited, so please don't form a dependence on the inheritor. In other words, my perception is actually the same as yours, and why can't you discover the danger you can spot?"

If Luo Songxi only vaguely felt the emotion of the female voice when he was reminded earlier, then now this passage simply makes Luo Songxi full of ridicule and anger similar to "stupid human".

"What the hell are you?" Luo Songxi couldn't help but ask this question for the second time.

"I'm sorry, I've finished answering today......" The female voice seemed to regain her calm in an instant, and answered him with a straight look.

“......”

The conversation may seem long, but it's actually done in the mind, and it's only a split second. However, in this way, Luo Songxi also dispelled the idea of tracking alone.

Luo Songxi jumped from the window on the second floor and followed his memory straight to Sheriff Bob's house. He slammed on the door of Bob's house and shouted, "Someone is dead, and you won't come out to work overtime?"

As long as you don't leave the town and are not disturbed by the West Wind bandits, Tarta Town is an extremely safe town overall. Low desire and life security determine that this is a place where no accidents will occur. There are usually few thefts in the town for a year, and the occurrence of a vicious homicide is definitely a sensational event.

But Luo Songxi shouted a few times, and the neighbors were alarmed, but there was no movement in Bob's room. It's not that there is no movement, after Luo Songxi shouted a few times, there was a loud and deliberate snoring sound in the room, which perfectly explained what it means to "you can never wake up a person who pretends to be asleep".

Luo Songxi was helpless, and shouted again, "Bao *** bed has investigated the case, and I will pay for overtime!"

The snoring disappeared, and the people in the room hesitated. After a long time, the sound of groping sounded in the room, and it was a long time before the huge body of Sheriff Bob appeared in the doorway.

While he struggled to fasten the collar of the sheriff's uniform, he said to Luo Songxi, "After nine o'clock in the evening, three times the overtime pay, two hundred and forty federal dollars per hour." ”

Bob walks extremely slowly, almost in a rhythm of one step and three breaths. Luo Songxi thought that only when he got off work could he see him moving like a rabbit.

Luo Songxi took advantage of his walking skills to tell him how he found a group of mysterious people setting up an altar in the mine, how he picked up the pamphlet, how Old John saw through the blood sacrifice ceremony and fought the mysterious people, how he left a book to tell him that there was another group of people who were doing the same thing, until the laundry aunt found the suspicious person, was so defeated, and he chased after him to find that the suspicious person had been murdered, and he was in danger of plotting, and told Bob from beginning to end.

just omitted the earth-shattering battle between Old John and the man in gray.

"So," Bob smashed, his eyes curled up in the fat on his face, barely visible, "You suspect that the dead had something to do with that unfortunate blood ritual?"

"It's not related, it's the one who died, it must be one of them, because they leaked their whereabouts and were wiped out! Those clothes are proof, they must have dug a cave in the ground, set up an altar, and got so much mud on their bodies. Luo Songxi emphasized his judgment, but he still sighed secretly in his heart, it seemed that no one believed in such a thing as the blood sacrifice ceremony.

But Bob said, "It's not that I don't believe in the evil ritual of that Rausch, I have long known that the old and the young in your alchemy shop are not ordinary people, and it is normal to find something mysterious." But I must emphasize two things to you. ”

He cocked up his thick fingers and said, "First, the investigation is about evidence, not inference. Just as I know that neither you nor Old John are ordinary people, and neither of them are native-born, can I infer that you are harboring in this town where birds don't, and that you are also plotting something evil?

Luo Songxi's mouth full of words was choked in his mouth.

"In the same way, you can't infer that someone else is going to do something earth-shattering based on a few dirty clothes. Bob continued.

"Second, I'm only responsible for investigating the homicide, which is the duty of the sheriff, but if it really finds out that the evil ritual you are talking about is really involved, I will pat my ass and leave. It's not something that a small town sheriff can do, and my job is to report it to the state, and I can't do what they're going to do. ”

Luo Songxi glanced at his figure, and said secretly in his heart, I'm afraid your hands won't be able to pat your buttocks.

Finally arrived at the Dendar Hotel, and finally stepped on the wooden stairs that looked like they would break at any time to the second floor, Bob squeezed through the narrow door of the room, saw the body of a middle-aged man lying on the ground, squatted down and reached out to turn him over.

Luo Songxi muttered in the back, "It stands to reason that before the case is moved, you have to take a bunch of photos with an element camera...... It's unprofessional......"

"Do you know how much an elemental camera costs? more than 200,000 dollars! It's still heavier than me!" Bob glared at him, "If the state is willing to allocate this money, I'm sure I'll buy a gun for the sheriff's office, and I can buy a lot of guns...... No, I won't buy a gun, I'll just take the money and abscond!"

Bob working overtime was like an angry porcupine, and Luo Songxi had no choice but to remain silent.

At this time, Bob had already finished checking the middle-aged man's chest, "A stab wound to the chest, a knife killing." Being able to stab in this position indicates that the deceased is very familiar with the murderer, and the deceased has no defense against the murderer. Just look for his acquaintances. ”

"It's said that he is a new face in the town, and he should have only come to Tarta Town this month at most, where can he find his acquaintances?"

"The town is so bent, how can you be a fresh face after nearly a month?" Bob struggled to get up from the ground, "He's the foreman who came to Tarta to repair the town's central square, go and ask his workers." ”

At this time, a young man with clear eyebrows trotted in all the way and saluted Bob energetically, "Boss, why did you call me out so late? Who wants overtime pay?"

The young man, Luo Songxi, recognized him as one of the only two vigilantes under Bob's command, named Vesta. Young people seem to be energetic, but in fact, the habit of working overtime is the same as Bob.

"Whatever this boss wants. Bob pointed to Rosongcreek and then instructed Paul, "There's a corpse there, paint a portrait of him." ”

"Ah, corpses!" Vesta glanced at the corpse on the ground, and immediately crouched to the side and vomited.

"Plus two hundred health subsidies. Bob said angrily.

"Yes, boss!" Vesta jumped up, wiped the corners of his mouth, took out a pen and white paper, and began to paint, as if he was not the one who had just almost vomited his stomach.

In just ten minutes, a vivid portrait was born in the hands of Vesta. Bob nodded with satisfaction, blew on the portrait, and said to Luo Songxi, "Let's go." ”

Luo Songxi couldn't laugh or cry at these two living treasure-like security guards.
