Just as the gravekeeper told him, it was a monster sewn together from various corpses, just like Frankenstein's monster, but that monster had no friendship and kindness in its heart, it was just a dead man.
It's just a murderous monster controlled by a spiritualist.
Esther turned around and looked at Albert, who couldn't help but tremble.
If Esther could read minds, he would definitely find that the other person was cursing in his mind.
Damn it, why would he find such a monster? It can no longer be called a human being. At least he has never heard of any human being who can turn a car into a discus.
"Take me to the place you said."
If the necromancer could be eliminated as soon as possible, Esther would naturally be extremely willing, and the bodies of the Scotts and his wife could be buried safely, which would be regarded as solving a problem.
After that, the two came to a large warehouse, located next to the seaside port. The iron rope in front of the warehouse door was cut off. From the smooth cut, it was something sharp. Esther thought it should be a suture beast.
paws.
Entering the warehouse, Esther looked at the surrounding environment. The light in the warehouse was very dim, maybe because of the night, and there was no window leading to the outside. The only way to come in was to get up from the door.
However, Esther thought that with the sharpness of the suture beast's claws, he should be able to easily open a hole in the wall.
But the other party didn't do this. It came in from the main entrance in a swaggering manner. It was obvious that the necromancer who operated this suture beast was the same as him and did not take ordinary people seriously.
There are some sundries piled up in the warehouse, and more of them are empty boxes piled up. These empty boxes are piled up in the warehouse in disorder. I think they were used to store the goods that Albert mentioned.
At the same time, Esther discovered some blood stains remaining on the ground. Some of these blood stains had been washed away, and the age of the blood stains could only be judged by the smell.
Esther took a deep breath. The smell of blood was like the aroma of food to him, but judging by the taste alone, it was not high-quality food.
"Do you know what was in the box before?" Esther asked.
"We are only responsible for transporting goods from overseas. As for what is in the box, to be honest, I don't know." Albert shook his head and replied.
"That means you are just a courier."
"...what can you say."
It may sound a bit low-key, but in fact it is no different from a courier.
Esther didn't ask any more questions. Even if he asked, Albert's answer would be "I don't know." He was just an ordinary person and didn't know much about these mysterious things.
Therefore, instead of asking the other party questions related to the goods, it is better to find clues yourself more quickly.
So, while searching for clues, Esther asked some questions about the largest local mafia, One Eye.
"One Eye is the largest mafia in the city. Its activities include but are not limited to human trafficking, gambling, drug trafficking, and loan sharking. They have a strict internal hierarchy. Each superior will manage five subordinate members. At the same time,
Higher-level members will never show up in front of lower-level members. Lower-level members usually act alone and rarely get together. They also refer to each other by numerical codes, and no one knows each other's name."
"Their leader is called One Eye. I heard that no one has seen his true face. Every time he attends a banquet or other event, he wears a different mask. No one knows what he looks like under the mask."
"It's quite mysterious." Esther said nonchalantly.
He didn't dare to show his true face to others, either because he was afraid of involving the people around him, or because he was not strong enough and was timid and afraid of death. As for which kind of Esther it was, I didn't know.
But since he is the leader of the mafia, the latter option is obviously more likely.
"Um?"
Esther, who was rummaging for clues in the wooden box, suddenly stopped as if he had found some clue.
The blue petals quietly falling at the bottom of the wooden box, like a beautiful enchantress, exude a refreshing and dark fragrance. The fragrance seems to have a soothing effect, making people feel relaxed and happy.
"Mr. Esther, have you discovered anything?" Albert asked.
Esther twisted the blue petals.
"petal?"
Albert was stunned, could this important cargo just be boxes of bouquets?
"It's not petals, it's blades of grass." Esther said.
Albert didn't understand.
"Although it looks like a flower, it is classified as a herbaceous plant. When it withers, it condenses the essence of its life into petals and falls. It is a guiding light for the dead and has the effect of requiem."
Esther looked at the empty boxes piled in front of him. He saw that the genus genus was not a weed that could be seen everywhere on the roadside. It was rare in number and grew in the subpolar regions with a cold climate, and was suitable for growing in frozen soil.
"To be able to get so many ghost lanterns, I'm a little curious about what the leader of One Eye plans to do with them."
Albert was silent. He didn't know the value of the ghost lantern grass. In his opinion, it might just be a group of rare plants used to show the leader's identity.
"Did you just put the boxes in the warehouse like this?"
"The outer packaging was removed after it was shipped from the ship, and then it was placed here to wait for delivery," Albert said.
Esther sneered, "The outer packaging should be used to conceal the smell of these ghostly lamps and lanterns, but I didn't expect it to be taken away by you. No wonder it attracted the Stitching Beast."
Albert also realized that it was his mistake that led to the loss of the goods, but now that they were all lost, the most important thing was whether they could be retrieved.
"Are you saying that it was the Stitch Beast that stole the goods?"
This name is simple and easy to understand, and you will know it is the name of a monster as soon as you hear it.
"No, it should be the Necromancer who stole these goods. I think these ghostly lanterns are a good batch of materials for him." Esther said.
Albert was stunned and said in surprise: "Is there really such a thing as a necromancer?"
He has lived in the world of ordinary people since he was a child and has never been exposed to these unknown things. It is inevitable that he would be so surprised.
"You can even accept monsters like the Stitch Beast, so what's so strange about having an extra Necromancer?" Esther said.
He will not provide psychological counseling for Albert. If the other party can accept it, then accept it. If he cannot accept the collapse, it is none of his business.
Albert swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his breathing became a little rapid, but it looked normal. This is also the benefit of young people. They are always very quick to adapt to new things. If the person standing in front of Esther now is a
For the elderly, the pain will go away as soon as the body twitches.
