When Tik was kidnapped, the young 'Herken' vomited out half of the horse it had eaten.
In addition, in the previous incident where the police officer disappeared and was killed, the person who was Kurtz's "scapegoat" should also have been spit out.
Don’t eat living ‘food’ but eat dead ones?
Unless, 'Herken' is a scavenger.
This possibility is not impossible, but it needs to be confirmed.
But the more important point is: if the monster-level 'Herken' doesn't eat these corpses, then the remaining monsters raised by Kurtz will not be able to eat the 'disappeared corpses' to the point in front of them!
The size of the 'Laugher' and 'The Hanger' determines their food intake.
Even if the number is large, it cannot eat hundreds or thousands of corpses in a short time.
‘Submariner’?
The body is very large, and it remains in a normal state most of the time.
‘Glass Hound’ and ‘Kemetia’ are also not monsters with large appetites.
so……
Someone is planning!
In other words, someone is misleading him!
Gave him a reason.
And the real ‘disappearing corpse’?
Jason thought of this and looked at Bundy.
"I have a suspicion that needs confirmation."
"wait a second."
"Finch, carriage."
After Jason finished speaking, he shouted directly to the young man.
"I understand, Sir Jason."
The young man who had long been accustomed to driving for Jason immediately ran out.
Jason, on the other hand, made a 'careful' gesture to Bundy without leaving a trace, and then left quickly.
The Sheriff became alert unconsciously.
"Temporarily seal off the scene!"
"Leave the necessary guards behind, and all the rest leave."
Bundy issued orders.
Immediately, everyone acted as ordered.
Philemon came over and asked quietly:
"Don't you need to get some explosives?"
"I'm a qualified grenadier!"
As he spoke, Philemon made a throwing motion.
"Fremon, you are a dentist."
Bundy reminded his adviser.
"Are you doubting my ability to work part-time?"
Philemon asked in a serious tone.
"No, no no!"
"I have no doubts about your ability to work part-time."
"I just haven't seen you pull out teeth."
Bundy waved his hand, turned around and walked out. He swore that he would never see Philemon for dental care in this life, but Philemon was right. Just in case, it would be better to get some explosives.
…
"Sir Jason, where are we going?"
Finch asked as he jumped into the driver's seat.
"Pea Street."
Jason answered.
Among the people Jason knew, the only one who might know something about 'Herken' was the old knight.
As for Taniel?
Jason asked the other party.
However, Taniel was obviously not familiar with this kind of monsters and could not answer at all.
As for whether the old knight will answer his question?
In other words, was the goodwill of the old knight a pretense?
Jason didn't think about it at all.
because……
No need at all!
If everything just now is 'layout'.
So, at this moment, his behavior has already been seen by others. Under the premise that the 'layout' is seen through, the other party will definitely take action.
Therefore, it is difficult for him to reach Pea Street in a real sense.
Moreover, once the other party takes action, it can indirectly prove that this matter has little to do with the old knight, although the goodwill shown by the other party is still open to question.
But what if he really arrived at Pea Street successfully?
That's the worst case scenario.
Either the layout person is that old knight.
Or he is a person who doesn't take the old jazz seriously at all.
No matter which one it is, Jason will choose to turn around and leave.
Then……
Report with real name!
Bones.
Amidst the sound of wheels, we are getting closer and closer to Pea Street.
Jason also became more and more vigilant.
After checking the magazines of all firearms, Jason placed the broad-bladed short-handled machete on his knees, and then took out the new hockey mask given by the old Jazz.
Jason ran his palms over the new hockey mask.
There is no difference between the new one and the original shape, but the material is better.
He slowly picked up the hockey mask. Just when Jason was about to put the hockey mask on his face, the carriage suddenly stopped.
"Sir Jason, someone is blocking the way!"
Finch's voice sounded.
Then there was a strange voice.
"I'm sorry, Sir Jason."
"I had no choice but to stop your carriage."
"I wish I could talk to you."
The other party said it very politely.
Jason's lips curled up.
He put away the broad-bladed short-handled machete, put the hockey mask beside him, and said directly: "Okay."
With Jason's agreement, a well-dressed man appeared outside the car door.
The other person wears gold-rimmed glasses, a silk top hat, a white shirt, a beige vest, a blue-black jacket, the same beige pants, and leather shoes without any stains, reflecting the light leather
light.
In his hand is a cane.
Although Jason had obtained permission, the other party did not open the door directly. Instead, he changed the position of holding the cane in his right hand to placing it under his left armpit.
Then, with his free right hand, the other person knocked on the car door.
Boom, boom.
Very rhythmic tapping.
No illness, no slowness.
Then, the other party took a step back and waited for Jason to open the door.
After Jason opened the door, the sudden visitor took off his hat, placed it on the left side, covered his cane, and bowed slightly.
"I took the liberty of visiting you."
"I'm really sorry."
"Can we talk in the carriage?"
As he spoke, he looked inside the carriage, waiting for Jason's signal.
When Jason nodded again, the other party stepped onto the carriage.
"I'm Duke!"
"I thought it was a careful arrangement, but I didn't expect you to see through it directly."
"Sure enough, he is worthy of being a 'Night Watchman'."
Entering the carriage, the other party said simply after sitting down.
There was obvious compliment in his words.
But Jason's vigilance did not relax at all.
Whether it was the other party's full of etiquette just now or the compliment at this moment, it was all a disguise in Jason's opinion. Anyone who really believed in a person who could make a bunch of corpses as a disguise in a short period of time was a etiquette person.
If you are a gentleman, you are mentally ill.
So Jason stayed calm.
He looked at the other party and asked suddenly:
"What does 'Herken' eat?"
"Herken loves to eat meat, but it needs to be high-quality meat, especially during the baby and growth stages. He is even more picky."
The man named Duke answered as if instinctively.
Then, he suddenly slapped his forehead.
"I see."
"I was indeed negligent. I didn't expect that Kurtz, the 'new animal trainer', would have a juvenile 'Herken'!"
The other person answered with a smile on his face and a trace of regret in his eyes.
He seemed really upset about this mistake.
However, Jason's eyes were full of coldness.
The other person is lying.
Because, he smelled something belonging to... on the other person's body.
