00148 The Old Witch (3rd Shift, Asking for a Monthly Pass)

Before Chen Cao went to the Gate of Hell, Chen Cao heard Lao Hei mention the Gate of Hell twice.

The first time I heard about it, the second time I found out that the gates of hell had changed, and it was discovered that there were people in the town secretly performing some kind of sacrificial ritual.

If the gates of hell change, it means that someone has sacrificed.

The fire broke out after Lao Hei mentioned it for the first time, and before he mentioned it for the second time.

And eight people died in the fire, could these eight people just be sacrificed?

If this is the case, then the situation is clear.

The fire at the distillery was caused by Tred Palmton himself, or he asked Templer to do it.

And he knows very well that after the fire, he will inevitably face huge compensation.

So he transferred assets by hiding the operation of the distillery.

As long as it is done properly and directly applies for bankruptcy protection, then he does not need to compensate for all his property.

Deppler wanted to blackmail Tred Pemble, but Tred Pampton became angry and simply sacrificed Dreadle without doing anything.

Pierce Nan looked at Chen Cao: "You seem to have thought of something." ”

Chen Cao glanced at Pierce Nan, and then turned to David, "Let's go." ”

"Are you just leaving?"

David turned to look at Pierce Nan, "What, do you want us to kill you?"

"Well, goodbye. Pierce Nan shrugged.

......

"Chen, did you think of something?"

"I now think that Tred Palmton might really be the murderer. ”

"Are you sure?"

"Not sure, and I don't have any proof. ”

"Analyze your analysis and talk to me. ”

Chen Cao began to tell David his thoughts and analysis, and David's heart moved.

"You said that to complete the gates of hell, you need a lot of sacrifices, right?"

"Yes. Chen Cao nodded.

"How many lives does it take to complete the sacrifice at the gates of hell?"

"Thirteen. ”

"Suppose that the eight dead of the winery fire were sacrificed, and the Daipule was also sacrificed, that is, there are still four people missing, and this sacrifice has actually begun before the winery fire. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Did you find any other homicides before and after the fire in Dashan Town, or were there more suspicious deaths?"

Chen Cao suddenly thought that not long ago, there was also a case.

But it was a vicious wanted criminal, and on the surface, the wanted criminal committed suicide in fear of crime.

At that time, Chen Cao also communicated with Melson, and Melson's speculation was that he felt that the deceased did not commit suicide.

At that time, Chen Cao didn't think much about it, after all, he was a wanted criminal, and he had nothing to do with him.

It's just that when I think about it now, it's very suspicious.

Chen Cao told David about this, and David thought for a while: "First of all, we have to confirm whether the deceased was called to the town by someone, or whether he entered the town by coincidence. ”

Chen Cao's eyes suddenly lit up: "The deceased lived in a duplex house, and a wanted criminal should not have so much money to live in that kind of big house." ”

"Do you know the landlord?" asked David.

"I don't know, but Bent knows for sure, so let's go back and ask him. ”

......

There are so many people in Dashan Town, and it is not difficult to find the owner of a house.

When Chen Cao and David returned to the town, they went straight to Bante's house.

"Bent, are you at home?"

After a short time, Bant opened the door, and when he saw Chen Cao and David, he was still very happy.

This may be the only thing that makes Ken happy after being taken away by the police for investigation.

"Chen, David, come in and sit down. ”

"Banter, remember the wanted man who died last time in that duplex across the street from the open-air dining room?"

"Remember, what's wrong? Does this have anything to do with Templer's death?"

"We suspected it was the same person, so we wanted to know who the landlord of that duplex was. ”

"That house belongs to the old witch of the town, Ungri Scosta. ”

"Old witch?"

"Yes, an old woman with a strange temper and a withdrawn old woman. "The whole town doesn't like to be in contact with her, they think she's scary," Bant said. ”

Chen Cao and David glanced at each other, and when they heard the nickname of the old witch, they would make people feel connected to this matter.

"Is there anything strange about her?"

"There were always dead animals around her house, and the one time I remember most vividly was when I was very young, I had a dog named Ken. ”

"Wait...... You said you had a puppy called Ken when you were a kid?"

"Yes, that's why I named my son Ken, just in honor of my puppy. ”

"Very well, let's continue. ”

"I was only eight years old at the time, and one day, I found Ken missing, and I searched everywhere, and finally found Ken hanging at her door in front of the old witch's house, and my parents had a big fight with the old witch about it. ”

"If she had done it, she wouldn't have hanged the dog on her doorstep, would she?"

"I don't know if she did it, but my parents were sure that the old witch had a criminal record. ”

"You're in your forties, aren't you?"

"Forty-eight years old. ”

"In other words, this incident happened forty years ago, so this old witch in your mouth should not be young?"

"I don't know how old she is, but she's a lot older than my parents. ”

"Then your parents ......"

"Ken's grandfather is seventy-eight years old. ”

"What's that idea that's a lot older than your father?"

"It seems that the old witch was in her sixties at the time. ”

Forty years ago, Bent's father was thirty-eight years old, and the old witch was nearly thirty years older than Bent's father, which means that this old witch may be over 100 years old this year.

Both Chen Cao and David couldn't help but gasp, and Bent looked at the two: "Chen, is this matter related to that old witch?"

"I'm not sure yet. Chen Cao asked, "Does she usually live in the house where the accident occurred?"

"No, her house has been vacant for a long time, and I wouldn't know if it wasn't for the last time that person died in her house, I wouldn't have known she rented it out. ”

"And where does she live now?"

"She lives outside the town, do you want me to send you there?"

"No, you can just tell us the address, this matter may be dangerous, you don't get involved. ”

"No, I can't let you risk it. ”

"Bent, don't be presumptuous, don't worry, David and I are quite capable of fighting, not to mention an old witch in her early teens, even if it is three or five of your physique, it may not be able to beat the two of us. ”

Leaving the Bent house, David asked, "Chen, is there any magic that can make people live that long?"

"I don't know, you should look for a professional in this area, such as Sienna. ”

"But Sienna is not as good as you, you don't know, will Sienna know?"

"Not necessarily, don't ask her, how do you know she doesn't know. ”

"Well, I'll call and ask her. ”()
