Lanni frowned. He had seen many chilling scenes, but the scene in front of him gave him an absolute shock.
He ate it raw. This is the only joint explanation that Lanny's brain can give. What just happened was like a hunt in nature, primitive, brutal, exposed and bloody. The loser became the winner's meal.
Also surprised were Mike and Serena, who looked at everything outside and could not say anything. The silence was finally broken by the detective, who said quietly but quickly: "Quick, let's go quickly."
"But..." Mike wanted to ask, but was immediately interrupted by Lanny: "I know what you want to say, but we can't guarantee whether he is still human. After he eats the snake man, we can't
They will definitely eat us too."
These words made the other two people shudder subconsciously. Looking at Quentin who was lying on the snake man's body and biting it, they no longer had any illusions and quickly walked into the passage.
…
The sunlight penetrates through the gaps in the white curtains, like a naughty child, leaving its mark on the room, reminding the people in the house that it is daybreak.
Ellie's eyes slowly moved from the documents opposite to the light spots on the ground. She exhaled a long breath, with a look of fatigue on her face.
Ta-ta-ta.
The wand in his hand tapped the floor, and the documents floating in the air fell from the air in an orderly manner. The curtains slowly opened, and the naughty children who had been waiting for a long time were shined in from the outside without restraint.
The eldest lady stood up from the sofa, put up a awning with her hands, looked out the window, and muttered: "It's another sunny day, not bad."
She closed the notepad in her hand, and her night's work was not in vain. Her guess was correct, Frank was indeed looking for the person named Kimball in these nursing homes and homeless shelters.
After a night of sorting, she narrowed it down to the three most likely places. If she were just looking for nursing homes and homeless shelters, Frank wouldn't have to painstakingly go to the underground archives of the police station to find information.
Liverpool's public archives, public libraries, and surrounding universities are all good places. Those places should have more complete and detailed information. All the police stations have are case files, which record the cases that occurred near these institutions.
, rather than the institution itself.
This also shows that there are likely to be cases that occurred in the places Frank is looking for, which may have led to the closure of these institutions. Or, in other words, it may be the cases themselves that Frank is looking for.
Following this direction, combined with the fact that the case files kept in the archives of the underground police station were basically cases from fifty years ago, Ellie finally targeted two nursing homes and a homeless shelter.
The two nursing homes are located in suburbs in different directions. One of the nursing homes named Tomorrow suffered from collective food poisoning in 1972, resulting in the deaths of twelve elderly people and three medical staff in the hospital.
This incident also forced the nursing home to close in 1973. An investigation at the time showed that the food poisoning was caused by a batch of stale clams purchased by the kitchen.
Another nursing home called Hand in Hand Sunset had a shooting incident in 1965. A thug broke into the nursing home, shot and killed six people, and finally committed suicide.
Similarly, due to public pressure, the institution was closed two years later. The police report showed that the thug was a former employee of the nursing home who was dissatisfied with his dismissal and came to seek revenge.
The last shelter did not have a name. It was originally located near George Wharf and was moved to the downtown area after the fire in 1955. The cause of the fire was malicious arson, but the murderer was not found. The fire caused more than 30 deaths.
People died, and almost half of the shelter was destroyed. Because it was so old, the contents of the police report were very crude.
Ellie strolled to the window and admired the sparkling Mersey River. She stretched her waist and stretched her sedentary body. The silk pajamas set off her curvy figure, and in the golden sunshine, she looked like
Dazzling like a goddess on the Olympic Mountains.
"Okay, let's start working." The eldest lady exhaled a long breath.
Darkness, endless darkness, everything he looked at was darkness. Xing Ze's consciousness was floating in a dark ocean. Suddenly, a pair of cold hands touched his cheeks, and a biting coldness swept through his body, and his lost vision gradually
recover.
He saw that familiar figure, that ghost that had never let go of him, like a shadow in the sun, always accompanying him.
A beam of bright light came from a distance, making it impossible to look directly at it. The girl's figure faded like a mist, followed by pain, pain all over her body.
Xing Ze couldn't help but let out a groan, and the surrounding darkness began to shrink, trying to block the light.
"Enough!" With Xing Ze's roar, the darkness receded like a tide, but some of it was like moss on a stubborn rock. They roared and surged into Xing Ze's body to make a final struggle.
But the light became brighter and brighter, wider and wider.
"You don't belong to them. One day you will understand that you have..."
The darkness completely dissipated.
Xing Ze woke up, and the sunlight falling from the roof shone on his body, bringing a touch of warmth to his cold body.
He looked down at the messy corpse of the snake man on the ground, and spat out the scraps of meat in his mouth in disgust. The pain in his body continued to intensify, indicating that his senses were gradually recovering. Overdrawn magic, broken bones, wounds, etc. had serious effects.
Soon it started to spread throughout the body.
Xing Ze let Blue Beak continue to devour the snake man, but time did not allow him to absorb the entire corpse. The noise coming from outside the gymnasium indicated that a large number of villagers were approaching here.
He took a few deep breaths, then used his right hand to reattach his dislocated left hand. The brief pain made Xing Ze take a breath.
His stronger body made him more and more able to tolerate pain, but this did not mean that he could completely block this feeling. Then he bent down and held the kneecap of his right leg with both hands, and with a click,
The entire deviated bone was pushed back.
"Thank you so much, Uncle Huang, the bone-setting techniques you taught me are always so useful." Xing Ze said to himself. The nutrients absorbed by Blue Beak began to repair his injured body, and the wound was slowly healing.
After waiting to absorb most of the corpses, Xing Ze withdrew his blue beak and limped toward the storage room.
When he arrived at the storage room, most of his body had recovered, and his broken right leg had become normal. He opened the door to the underground and followed the light not far away.
A few minutes later, he caught up with the group of investigators. Mike, who was behind him, did not see the person coming clearly in the darkness, so he subconsciously stabbed the dagger in his hand, but his hand was blocked, followed by someone on his stomach.
He received a punch, not hard, but painful enough to make him scream.
"Don't point the dagger at me." Xing Ze cursed and pushed Mike to the wall.
The three of them were relieved after hearing the fake Quentin's voice, and Mike couldn't help but laugh, "God bless you, are you back to normal?"
"God will not bless me." Xing Ze sarcastically said, "Keep going forward, don't stop, they will catch up soon."
