Chapter 537: The Guest Who Arrived First
Late at night, 2 a.m.
A car sped past Mission Hill and past the hospital where Joshua had been staying, and after driving far, stopped on the side of the road.
"Master, would he really hide in such a place?"
Fei Chi looked out the car window, "There is a church over there, and it's not far from the hospital where he used to live, and this place is not remote, so it's easy to find, right?" ”
"It's dark under the lights," Chi Feichi looked at the buildings on the left side of the street, "He left the hospital at night, and it wasn't until the next morning that the hospital found out that he was missing, and he couldn't be found, and then the hospital called the police and told the church, and the police and the church started looking for him, and it was easy to ignore this kind of place, because in their minds, one night was enough time for Joshua to leave far away, and the police are currently considering the possibility that he has been killed by others." ”
"Is it possible that he was actually killed?" Fei Mo asked.
"Yes," Chi Feichi said, "but first put aside the possibility that he was killed, he may be hiding here, in that case, the murderer was killed on the spot because he resisted when he was arrested, and there are many doubts after the case is closed, such as where did the murderer's murder weapon go, the police have not obtained the corresponding testimony, and judging from the old photos, the deceased was pierced to death by a spear nailed to the ground, but there were a large number of lacerations on his body, and the blood left in the room at the scene did not match the amount of bleeding of two people......"
"The killer took the blood?" Non-ink smacks the lips.
When humans twist up, it's terrifying.
"The police also judged so, and also did a blood reaction test at his home," Chi Fei paused, "No, except for the room at the scene of the crime, there is no blood reaction anywhere or in any container, so the police guess that he is directly on the mouth......"
Fei Mo: "......"
Fei Chi was puzzled, "What's wrong with going straight to the mouth?" ”
Fei Mo: "Shut up. ”
"Pay attention to a few details."
Chi Fei didn't compete with the two pets for a long time, and continued to analyze.
"In the photos we looked at before, there was a picture of the study, there were some books about vampires on the bookcase, and from the book cover, you can also see that those books were turned over, almost none of them were turned over some of the vampire's reckless and vulgar books, and the ones that were turned more were "The Vampyre", "Carmilla", "Dracula".
"These three are classics."
"The Vampyre was written in 1819 by the personal physician of an English poet, and the vampire protagonist was transformed from a murderous corpse to an English aristocratic figure."
"Carmilla is a novella by a British eccentric writer between 1971 and 1972, in which the female vampire protagonist is described as beautiful and seductive."
"Dracula, Dracula, is the Gothic horror of the Irish writer [of Begonia House] in 1897, and the protagonist of the book, Dracula, is a gentleman of good manners and elegance, which is also the basis for many vampire film and television adaptations."
"The second detail, the things on the collection shelf, there is a set of Romanian traditional clothing, Romania has always been the most complicated place for vampire superstition, in "Dracula", Dracula's place of residence is also in Transylvania, Romania, plus in the description of the case, the two victims were nailed to their heads, which is an old custom of Romanians to prevent the dead from becoming vampires, indicating that he specially went to Romania."
"The third detail, judging from the introduction on the post, the murderer used to be a very successful businessman, look at all the photos, the room is very tidy, the things are very particular, the clothes in the wardrobe are ironed without a little wrinkles, the decoration has some retro charm, and even the crime scene, there is not too much messy bloodstains, the photo was taken after it was abandoned, and the condition of the body was not photographed, but only a little blood was left on the ground under the spear at the crime scene, and the rest of the place was too clean."
"Coupled with the murderer's use of piercing to kill people, it can probably be seen that this is a person who still pays attention to the quality of life and worships elegant vampires, especially Dracula, after his brain is pumped."
Chi Feichi concluded, "It's hard to believe that this kind of person will go straight to his mouth, especially when he heard about the two deceased...... It's all homeless. ”
The case was also a testament to the madness of the year, when the culture of vampires in Boston was also attacked to a certain extent.
It's really hard to explain this kind of thing, some people just watch some works for fun, and a very small number of people just become snake spirits.
But people are also good at forgetting, this case was just discussed for a while that year, and then the heat was replaced by various cases, and related posts were about to sink to the bottom of the sea.
If it weren't for his patience to rummage, he really couldn't find the details of this case.
"The blood and the thing that contains the blood...... Fei Mo pondered, "was he thrown it away?" No, if the murderer really worships vampires, he shouldn't have lost those ......"
"There's a place in this house that the police didn't find, probably a secret room," Chi Fei Chi concluded, "and after the murder here, Joshua came on behalf of the church, and he may have found the secret room left by the former owner." ”
"It's dark again, and it's the mystery of the case a few years ago, it's really not easy for Joshua to think about so many words," Fei Mo looked at Chi Fei Chi, "But, master, will this be the choice you would make from Joshua's standpoint?" In fact, he didn't think about it so much, he would have run away a long time ago......"
"No, I won't make this choice, hiding here without food, inevitably going out, going out will be discovered, if I want to run away, I will choose to leave here early, even if the police will lock my whereabouts according to information such as taxis, but find a remote place to go around a few times, just find a way to get rid of it, and Joshua didn't commit any major crimes, just said something that the church didn't like, he could completely change places, after being found by the police, he said that he wanted to live a peaceful life, and it was good to retire in that small place," Chi Feichi looked at the complex, "I judged that he was here because the police did not find any clues for him to leave Boston, and he has not been found by the church, the church has searched other places very strictly, if he is in other places, it is very likely that he has been found, those places can be ruled out, only this is the ......"
"Without food, would he be dead?" Fei Mo asked.
Chi Feichi opened the window, "Then you have to go and see." ”
"Master, won't you come with me?" Fei Mo was embarrassed, "I don't know human language, so I can't communicate." ”
"No wonder you have to ask me to send you here......"
Chi Feichi is not very interested in this kind of pretending to be a ghost, and as a human, his appearance may destroy the mystery, but he is also willing to help Feimo if necessary.
"Okay, let's go take a look and find out where it's hidden."
Chi Feichi made a decision, didn't hesitate any longer, went to the trunk of the car to find a black robe and mask, put them on, and walked into the alley.
……
There weren't many residents near the old house, and there wasn't a single person on the street late at night.
Under the dim street lamps, melting snow drips from the eaves and walls, and from time to time a sharp and piercing cat meow can be heard in the distance, which not only does not bring a little life to the place, but looks more and more treacherous.
Chi Feichi walked through the unlocked gate, looked up at a car parked in the courtyard, and quietly approached.
There is still a residual temperature on the hood......
There is no trace of cars repeatedly entering and exiting in the yard......
It's not a godfather's car, and it's not the car that a 60-year-old would choose, and it still has a band from a pop band in Boston five or six years ago......
Small black gravel stuck in the wheels......
Sun marks on the car, subtle scratches on the rear of the car, mud on the fenders, spacing between the seats, the faint smell from the inside of the car, stains under the rear windshield......
A young man in his 30s, who visited for the first time, and had just arrived at the port beach...... Male guests.
"Master," Fei Chi, who was hiding under the black robe to keep warm, "There are people in the attic, not under the triangular tip of the roof, but under the sloping roof on the right, it seems that when it was designed, the top of the room below was specially pulled down a little to leave a space, huh...... There were two people. ”
"There's a guest coming." Ji Feichi left the car and walked to the house, repeating Feichi's words to Feimo in a very soft voice.
Fei Mo consciously flew into the air and circled around the top of the house, trying to find a place where he could observe the situation inside.
Chi Feichi raised his head to look at the layout of the roof, stretched out his black robe with his hand, and gestured to Fei Mo in the air.
Chimney.
……
In the chimney that connected to the fireplace on the third floor, there was a wooden ladder.
The wall tiles in the middle section were removed, and a small space inside was lit with faint candlelight.
At the entrance, the floor is made of black and white bricks to form a large, intricate pattern.
The walls were littered with black-stained and rust-stained tools, and there were stacks of biscuits, bread, and two small black boxes.
In the corner, Joshua, gray-haired and dressed in a hospital gown, knelt on the ground, looking down at the ground motionless, like a sculpture, only the faint heaving of his chest proved that he was still alive.
A middle-aged man in a black robe stood with his back to the door, and on the hat he put down was a tough face full of anger, looking left and right boredly, "Father, it's really hard for you to find this place." ”
"You've found it too." Joshua remained still, "And I'm not a priest anymore." ”
"I wanted to go to the Mission Mountain for a walk, passing by here, and I came with you when I saw you," the middle-aged man walked to the wall and looked at the two long black boxes, "Consider my proposal, Joshua, can you get the bomb on your own, or when you are being searched everywhere by those people outside, I admire your ability, and you are not looking for this thing for the same purpose as us?" The heretics out there are disgusting, and we should send them to hell and accept ......"
"Is Belel your God?" Joshua asked suddenly.
The middle-aged man was stunned, "No, our god is Satan, and only Satan." ”
Joshua couldn't help but glance up at the man, his gaze focused on the large white pattern of an inverted cross on the man's black robe.
Middle-aged man: "......"
For some reason, he saw it in Joshua's eyes...... Contempt?
Joshua was just about to speak, when he caught a glimpse of a crow at the door, and he was suddenly stunned.
The crow had a pitch-black blue feather, and its scarlet eyes looked at them with a sense of contemplation, and it was in the middle of the pattern in the doorway!
While he was stunned, the crow tilted its head to look at him, flapped its wings and flew out, and flew up the chimney again.
"Joshua?" The middle-aged man saw Joshua suddenly turn his head to stare at the door, turned his head in confusion, and also heard the sound of wings fluttering, "What ...... something?"
