Taniel made a reservation at the Starry Sky restaurant at noon.
And this moment is just before sunrise.
Of course, Jason would not wait around stupidly. After borrowing a carriage from the old Sir, and with Finch driving the carriage, Jason and Tanier returned to the singles dormitory of the police station.
The sun rises and the chill is driven away again.
The thin morning fog began to slowly dissipate.
In Room 305, Bundy is informing Jason about the investigation in the cemetery.
only……
The atmosphere is slightly depressing.
Not because of the content of the investigation, but because... Jason!
Or rather Jason's hair!
Jason's hair is gone.
simply put……
Jason, bald!
In the explosion just now, satiety was able to heal the fatal injuries suffered by Jason.
Can,
You can’t grow hair if you’re full!
Therefore, not only is his hair missing, but Jason's eyebrows are also gone.
His face, which originally didn't look ugly, looked extremely fierce after missing his hair and eyebrows.
Of course, it is equally brilliant.
Especially at this moment, when Jason took off his hood, his whole head was shining brightly under the reflection of the morning sun.
As Bundy was telling the story, his eyes were involuntarily attracted by this brilliance.
Finch, after taking a quick glance, moved his gaze elsewhere.
Taniel's face turned red.
"Laugh if you want to."
"I don't mind."
Jason just finished speaking.
"puff!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Taniel couldn't help laughing.
Jason looked at Taniel calmly.
The steady gaze made the laughter become smaller and smaller.
"Ahem."
"Jason, I didn't mean it."
“In addition to the reserved ‘stargazing’ for lunch, I will also add a special dish: ‘jelly eel’!”
"However, this requires me to communicate with the chef. I will leave first."
Taniel quickly stopped smiling, finished speaking seriously, stood up and walked out.
The young teacher at Deer College is worried that if he continues to stay, all his hard-earned savings will be wiped out.
but……
I just can’t help it!
That bald head!
Ha ha ha ha!
With suppressed laughter, Taniel ran all the way downstairs.
Even though it was suppressed laughter, it was still clearly audible when facing Jason, whose perception was twice that of an ordinary person.
However, Jason did not chase him out.
After all, lunch takes a long time!
He has plenty of time.
"continue!"
Jason turned his head and said to Bundy.
"We have checked, and indeed as you said, Jason, there are many bodies missing from the anonymous graves in the cemetery, but we have searched the entire cemetery and found nothing."
"I've contacted informants, but they don't know either."
"As for Santel?"
Having said this, the Sheriff paused slightly, with confusion on his face.
However, he immediately said:
"He's buying bodies!"
"I can confirm this after tracing through several informants."
"In the past two months, he purchased a total of 6 corpses."
Buying a body?
Jason was stunned.
This answer was somewhat beyond Jason's expectation.
Originally, in his mind, even if there was no direct relationship between Santel and the disappearance of the body, there would be an indirect relationship.
But now it looks a little different.
Santel, who guards the cemetery, should have no shortage of corpses.
There is no need to go out and buy a body at all.
Even if half of the body is missing from the anonymous grave, there is still the remaining half.
unless……
He couldn't touch the corpse in the cemetery at all!
There were not many reasons that could keep Santel from touching the bodies in the cemetery.
Among them, the order from the mastermind who made him become the 'gravekeeper' is the most intuitive reason!
"What does the other party want to do with these corpses?"
Jason couldn't help but frowned.
Subconsciously, he wanted to ask the old knight.
But then, Jason gave up this option.
It is very possible that the other party knows something.
But, I will never tell him.
If the other party wanted to say something, he would have said it before he left.
"Is it because you don't want to say it?"
"still……"
"Some kind of restriction?"
Jason was thinking, and then he noticed that the Sheriff was looking at him with a very strange look.
"What's the matter, Bundy?"
"I said, if you want to laugh..."
"You can laugh as much as you want."
Jason said.
"I don't want to bear the consequences of laughing at you."
"Do not worry."
"It's just that the hair is gone, and the hair follicles are not damaged. They will grow back in a few days."
Bundy waved his hands repeatedly.
The Sheriff was not a fool like Taniel. He could see that Jason, who said he didn't care about his baldness, actually cared about it deep down.
Then, the sheriff fell silent.
There was hesitation and confusion on his face.
"what happened?"
Jason asked again.
"Jason..."
"Are you 'immortal'?"
Gritting his teeth, Bundy asked.
And, be prepared for the worst.
It is not good to pry into other people's private affairs.
The normal world is like this.
And the ‘mystery side’?
Even more so.
Although it has only been a few days since I officially came into contact with the ‘mysterious side’, some things are the same.
Of course Bundy couldn't be unclear.
But Bundy wanted to know the answer.
For this, he was ready to pay the price.
However, what the sheriff didn't expect was that Jason nodded simply.
"yes."
he replied.
"Is it because of the 'Herc's Potion'?"
The Sheriff couldn't help but ask after Jason nodded.
"yes."
Jason nodded again.
In order to cover up one's own secrets, 'Herc's Potion' is a very good cover.
Moreover, Jason doesn't mind using wrong information to lead those who are hostile to him.
Unequal news is enough to give him more advantages.
Advantage over the ‘mastermind’!
Before truly understanding the other party and their purpose, Jason must "arm" himself in this way.
even,
After understanding the other party, such 'arming' is also essential.
Because this will affect who will be the winner between him and the other party!
Of course, it was best for his teacher to solve everything.
But Jason's character forced him to take precautions.
However, to Jason's expectation, just as he finished speaking, Bundy looked nervously and looked at him expectantly.
"Well Jason, do you know of any potion that can bring the dead back to life?"
Bundy asked.
"Potion to bring the dead back to life?"
Jason was stunned.
Looking at the expectation on the Sheriff's face, he finally shook his head.
He didn't know where the Sheriff's expectations came from, but he could make a guess.
It should be because of someone, right?
But the more this happens, the less Jason can deceive the other party.
A kind lie will bring temporary comfort, but it is more likely to bring more painful harm.
"is that so?"
Bundy looked disappointed and bitter.
The Sheriff wanted to say something else, but Jason looked towards the window as if he was aware of it.
Bundy and Finch subconsciously followed Jason's line of sight.
Suddenly, the two people's breaths were suffocated.
