Embers of Embers

Chapter 99
In fact, sometimes many things are fine when put together alone, but when put together, they will produce some strange chemical reactions.
Lorenzo had eaten a lot of strange food, whether he was hunting down demons while serving in the Order, or on his trip to Gaul Nalo with Seleucus. He had encountered worse situations and eaten more delicious things, but Those who have never had such a big impact on him than this ghost thing in front of him.
In the six years he had lived in Old Dunling, Lorenzo had heard the name of this dish, but only once. He rarely went to restaurants and would usually make everything he wanted to eat at home, but now he looked at what was in front of him. This dish made his life feel a little blurry.
Whether it's fish heads, cheese, or pizza, these things look good and edible on their own, but when they are put together they become like some kind of monster mixture, full of absurdity.
Looking at the raised fish heads in front of him, Lorenzo's old face couldn't help but darken. This is looking up at the stars, this is not to rest in peace!Each fish head's eyes widened, as if complaining to Lorenzo about what happened to this non-fish.
Okay, okay, don't look at it anymore. Lorenzo picked up a sandwich and walked out of the restaurant without looking back.
Today is a new day, no troublesome people, no troublesome things, which is really good.
After boarding a steam tram, the rumbling iron snake moved forward on the track in the direction of Su Aran Hall.
Get up, eat, and then go to Su Yalan Hall.
This is probably Lorenzo's itinerary in the near future. There are many strange cases that need to be solved every day in the Old Dunling University. As an external detective, Lorenzo will never be short of work.
Speaking of which, Lorenzo has to say that the formality is really good. There are people assisting the whole process, and even public funds can be used. The only trouble is that there are more procedures to go through, and you can't open fire at will... at least not in Fire was fired at random in the city.
Soon the eye-catching building of Suyalan Hall appeared in Lorenzo's field of vision. It was a tall castle, but the strange thing is that this castle was built in the urban area, and many places have been demolished. It was originally the site of a certain A nobleman's castle, he later went bankrupt and mortgaged the castle. After several years of turnover and the expansion of Old Dunling, it fell into official hands.
Originally it was going to be demolished, but considering its historical significance and military-level defensive capabilities, it became Suryalan Hall, the police security center for the entire old Dunling.
After passing the security check at the door, Lorenzo entered easily. This was not the first time he came to Su Yalan Hall. In his previous life, he always pretended to be various identities and blended in. It was only after becoming an external detective that he It became fair and aboveboard.
Well, this feels pretty good.
Seeing Lorenzo's arrival, the police officers looked sideways. Although this external detective had been working for more than half a month, many young police officers still looked at him curiously. Some of them looked like they were facing a formidable enemy, and some of them looked at him curiously. people are extremely excited.
In fact, this makes sense. Before this, Lorenzo was a mysterious detective from Xiacheng District. His famous record was the Red River Massacre that directly shuffled Xiacheng District. In essence, Lorenzo was an urban legend for most of them. He existed, but now this urban legend not only appeared in front of their eyes, but what's more, he also clocked in to work with them.
It was a feeling of disillusionment. This mysterious detective was not a ghost-like character. He was not only approachable and approachable with a smile, but also liked to chat with everyone and pick up the wool of Su Yalan Hall. He said, "Comrades, let us overthrow it together." The evil ruling class".
After greeting several familiar police officers, Lorenzo moved back and forth among the densely packed work stations, and finally arrived at Pres's work station.
"Is there any work today?"
Lorenzo started his day.
……
Horse-drawn carriages speed through the streets of Old Dunling. Although cars have been invented, due to energy consumption and road surface problems, they are still toys for rich people and are not suitable for the complex situation of Old Dunling.
Lorenzo and Pres sat opposite each other in the carriage. There were still several bullet holes in the door that had not been repaired. Cold wind blew in from them, making the two of them tighten their clothes.
"A murder?"
Lorenzo looked at the records on the document and read every sentence in detail. Now the two of them were rushing to the scene of the crime. During this time, Lorenzo usually used it to learn about the case.
"To be precise, it was a brutal killing. It was so cruel that our police officers almost vomited when they went there. Some little girls were so scared that they cried."
Press added.
"So bad?"
Normal people would feel a little disgusted and disgusted when hearing this, but Lorenzo was a little excited. Such strange cases were rare, and Lorenzo began to wonder how bad the scene would be.
Human beings have a set of limitations on themselves. Just like humans can easily kill an animal, but they feel terrible when they see the death of the same kind. If it was a cruel killing, the criminal must have extraordinary abilities. Psychological quality, or it is downright abnormal.
But no matter what the outcome is, it will make things interesting.
The crime scene is located in the outer city, near the new development zone outside Old Dunling. Due to the advancement of technology and the increasingly powerful country, the population of Old Dunling is constantly rising, so much so that the government has been continuously expanding Old Dunling in recent years. Spiritual city.
These development areas have not yet been built, but because the rents near them are very cheap on the edge, many foreigners live in these cheap houses and take the tram to work in the factory before dawn.
The scene of the crime was in an apartment building. Su Yalan Hall's carriages occupied most of the street, and the mounted police cordoned off all around. Everyone looked solemn.
"Oh my God, that's so cruel."
"I don't think I'll want to eat meat for half a month."
"I think I need to find a place to throw up."
As soon as they got out of the car, all kinds of sounds poured into Lorenzo's ears. The police officers all had sad faces. Some of them were sitting on the steps with blank faces. It seemed that the impact was too great and had made him suspicious. life.
"It doesn't look promising."
Price didn't expect this to be the case, so he took the mask that was handed to him, and then gave one to Lorenzo.
"Tell me what's going on."
Lorenzo put on a mask and asked the police officer leading him.
Even outside, you can still smell the smell of blood in the air. It's really hard to imagine how tragic the crime scene would be.
"The victim is a middle-aged woman, a non-local who came to Old Dunling this year, and works in a factory in Xicheng District. According to the report, the landlord asked about the strong smell of blood in the morning, and then saw her The room looked like it had been invaded, and then... the crime happened."
the policeman said.
"It seems that it can be ruled out that it is for money. There is no money to be made in this kind of place."
Lorenzo nodded and walked up the stairs under his guidance. The crime scene was at the end of the corridor on the fourth floor. This was the victim's room. Far away on the other side of the corridor, Lorenzo could clearly feel the coming. The dried blood behind the cordon was flowing in most of the corridor. It was hard to imagine that so much blood could gush out of the human body.
"I hope you can be mentally prepared. I have been working for so long, and this scene is the most tragic I have ever seen."
The police officer said with lingering fear, and then he stopped outside the cordon and wanted to move forward.
"Do you want to be together?"
Lorenzo turned to Sergeant Press and asked.
Listening to the police officer's description, Officer Price looked a little embarrassed. To be honest, he was a little curious, but he was afraid that he would regret this damn decision. But after a few seconds, he nodded and walked in with Lorenzo. room.
The mad energy that was almost solidified impacted everything around them, and a picture of blood instantly unfolded in front of the two of them.
