The Smith family is a farmer located in the southwest of Ghana. The area of cultivated land it controls is not large, similar to that of Victor's Damon family, which is about a hundred acres. However, the difference is that the Smith family is relatively closed.
, there are no nearby human settlements around.
It’s still unclear what the real situation is, but that’s what the corpse who had just woken up said so.
Victor asked him a lot of questions and found that this guy couldn't remember most of them, and many key parts were missing from his memory.
For example, what happened before he was sold to the Smith family, how he escaped, and how he became what he is now.
The living corpse doesn't know anything. The only thing he knows clearly is that he must be dead, but he doesn't know why he can still talk like a living person...
Victor looked hard at the other person's rotting throat and asked him if he could eat like a living person.
He said he didn't know, but sometimes he felt full.
Victor didn't quite understand, so the investigator watching behind him explained: "He can eat, but you don't want to know what he usually eats?"
As soon as the investigator finished speaking, the chained man suddenly let out a strange groan, and his body suddenly became stiff again. The original pupils disappeared and his eyes turned white.
Victor accidentally grabbed his arm by him and hurriedly pushed him away. Then he saw that this man had become an unconscious walking zombie again, constantly reaching out to try to grab something from the front.
"He'll eat anything alive, tear off raw flesh, whatever the creature is..."
The little detective's answer was very clear, this thing can eat people.
Victor asked slightly worriedly: "Are you sure his symptoms will not be transmitted to others?"
The young agent was startled, then he scratched his sleeves open, and Victor discovered that there was an obvious tooth mark on his arm, which was already scarred.
"I was the first investigator to be attacked by him. It is said that before he was discovered, two other citizens were attacked by him. Their injuries were a little more serious than mine, but I have never heard of anyone becoming like him."
This zombie was very different from the zombies Victor knew. His mind was full of questions, so he decided to meet William Marshall in person and ask him for clarification.
But when he went back to the Anti-Suppression Department to look for William, William was not there.
Not only him, but also his assistant Amanda is missing.
Victor went to Charlotte to inquire and learned that the two of them also left the house shortly after Victor left and did not tell Charlotte where they would go.
Just when Victor wanted to enter the database to check, suddenly, a voice appeared in his mind.
"Come to Swan Avenue..."
The voice was very abrupt, but Victor recognized it as William.
This is not the first time that William has sent a voice directly into Victor's head. It is obviously some kind of invisible technique.
Victor was extremely surprised, took out his pocket watch and checked the time, and finally decided to give up dinner and go to William's place first to see what they were doing.
As soon as he walked out of the gate of the Anti-Suppression Department, the tram across the street stopped. Victor ran over quickly to pay for a ticket, but saw an unexpected acquaintance on the train.
With that iconic deerstalker hat and tan coat, Victor knew who it was even if he didn't see his face.
The other person was sitting in the last row and was reading a newspaper. The newspaper attracted his attention and he did not look towards the front of the car.
Victor turned around and wanted to get out of the car, but the door closed quickly and he didn't have time.
Since the Vedder incident, Victor didn't pay much attention to his hair and beard unless he was going to find De Gaulle.
It was the same today, Victor was not disguising his appearance.
He was a little embarrassed, lowered his hat, tried his best to hide his hair, and sat in front with his back to de Gaulle.
With the whistle of the tram, the carriage passed through one street after another, and finally opened the door and pulled into the station.
Victor quickly ran out of the car, looking at the back row with the corner of his eye, and found that De Gaulle still maintained his movements and did not make any changes, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Abandoning the convenience of taking the tram, Victor originally wanted to hire a carriage, but found that there were no open carriage drivers on the section of road he came down from, so he had to rely on walking.
When he arrived at Swan Avenue, it was already dark and candles were already lit in the houses on the street.
Victor didn't know where William was, but it didn't matter, because he saw two SPB investigators walking on the road.
So, he stepped forward to inquire and found that the other party was not an agent of the Inspection Bureau, but an internal staff member of the Anti-Suppression Department, and he had received William's order to wait for him here.
He was taken to an ordinary low-rent apartment and met William and Amanda in the room on the fourth floor.
The two of them were sitting in a cramped rented apartment. In front of them was a middle-aged housewife wearing a simple sweater.
"You came……"
William looked at Victor at the door. Victor stepped in, but was met with a blank look by Amanda.
"Why did you call him here?"
Amanda questioned William, who stared at the file in Victor's hand.
"Because the orders from the presidential palace are in his hands."
His tone was unpleasant, and Victor knew what he was angry about.
He was clearly an officer of the Anti-Suppression Department, but he went to the Inspection Bureau to meet with Trini Mark and got the order from the White Crown. This was obviously not to give him the dignity of the Minister of Anti-Suppression Department.
But even if he knew this, Victor didn't care. After all, Albert held the secret of the path of death and threatened Victor's life. He would definitely pursue him.
Victor walked up to William and glanced at the anxious woman. Before he could speak, William asked him: "Have you gone to see Frank?"
Frank is the living corpse, and Victor is not prepared to hide it. After all, he is here to ask about the truth about the living corpse.
Seeing him nod, William sighed and said: "Trini Mark always looks covetously at the power of the Anti-Suppression Department. For this reason, he may promise you something that cannot be fulfilled, but you have to know that in the final analysis, these are all
It is a means used by a scheming person like him to achieve his goal."
"I don't like him." Victor replied, "But I really have no choice in this matter."
William took the order from the White Crown from his hand, glanced at it, and sneered disdainfully: "If you don't want to provoke a civil war, just ignore all corruption, and if you are willing to show off with those guys, you have to use thunderous means. It's okay to be coy.
what?"
Victor heard a lot of meaning from his words, and immediately asked William why he said that.
Amanda snorted, and William quickly interrupted the resentment of the assistant next to him and suggested to Victor: "Calm down and listen to what the lady in front of you has to say first. She has what you want to know."
Victor looked at the uneasy woman again: "This is..."
"Her name is Harry Brandt. She was also a slave in the past and worked for the Smith family. She is also the wife of the Frank you went to meet earlier."
