American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

The entire journey was silent.

Although Dean's attitude towards Zhang Yi was still not enthusiastic, he finally had no intention of deliberately looking for trouble.

Two days later, a group of four people finally arrived at the crime scene marked in the newspaper.

After finding a relatively remote motel, everyone had time to rest for a while. The drive all the way made several people physically and mentally exhausted. Even the two brothers who had long been accustomed to this kind of life were a little unbearable.

After a good night's sleep, Zhang Yi and Qiao opened the door to the brothers' room early the next morning, carrying large and small bags of food, high-end drinks and some coffee.

"Wow, did you rob Starbucks and the local bar?"

Sam, who was looking up information in front of the table, couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene.

"How is it possible? Zhang Yi bought these. He is not short of money. What he took out were all valuable gold and gems."

Due to work reasons, no one could attract too much attention, so the accommodation was relatively shabby, but the food was different. Zhang Yi didn't want to eat hamburgers and sandwiches every day.

Joe put the things on the dining table and turned to ask.

"Where's Dean?"

"Still sleeping, he is already very tired after driving all the way."

Sam shrugged his shoulders, but the next moment, the bedroom door was opened, and Dean walked out sleepily and yawned.

"With this I can stay energetic all day long."

Dean said as he opened a bottle of wine and took a swig.

Next to him, Zhang Yi came behind Sam, looked at the information on his laptop, and asked curiously.

"How's it going, Sam? It's been so long since the crime occurred, I guess there are no clues left at the crime scene."

"It's true. I just called the local police station. The detectives seemed a little at a loss. This incident even alerted the intercontinental police detectives, but they still didn't find anything valuable."

Sam laid out the information he had compiled, then pushed the computer in front of Zhang Yi and continued.

"But I found the victim's family members. Maybe we can start from this aspect. Dean and I will visit those people and see if we can get any useful information."

"What about us?" Qiao frowned slightly.

"You can just stay here and keep an eye on what may happen. Just leave the hard work to us." Dean said with a smile.

Seeing how Dean was clearly coaxing the child, Joe tilted his head and took out a fake license plate with a very conspicuous 'FBI' printed on it.

For these demon hunters, applying for fake certificates and using false names is a daily routine. Since their daily job is to hunt demons, they usually rely on stolen credit cards to survive without any financial income.

"Don't treat me like a kid Dean, I have professional tools too."

Joe said with a chuckle, looking proud.

"All right."

When Dean saw this, he smiled a little awkwardly. He didn't expect that Ellen had already done this for his daughter. In this case, there was no need for him to stop her.

"Then it seems that we can only ask our magician, Mr. David, to stay here alone."

"That's what you said Dean."

Zhang Yi raised his hand, and a license plate also belonging to the FBI appeared between his two fingers.

"Magicians sometimes do prepare some interesting props in advance."

At the same time, green light flashed, and Zhang Yi's windbreaker turned into a slim suit, and even his tie was tied perfectly.

"cool!"

Joe exclaimed.

Seeing Zhang Yi once again cracking Dean's little plan, Sam couldn't help but smile and pat Dean on the back, silently comforting his good brother.

The four of them split up.

Together with Joe, we came to the house in the information. This should be the home of one of the victims.

After looking up and down this small foreign-style building, it seemed that the person living here must be a very good organizer. All the facilities outside the house were taken care of in an orderly manner.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door. After a while, the door was opened, and an old woman appeared in front of Zhang Yi and Qiao.

Feeling the old woman's doubtful gaze, Zhang Yi and Qiao took out their IDs and showed them in front of each other's eyes, then quickly took them back.

"Hello, I'm Agent Wu, and this is Agent Daisy. Are you Ms. Irma?"

Zhang Ye accurately gave the false name, playing a little Easter egg from WandaVision.

The old woman nodded gently when she heard this. Although she was a little strange, she obviously knew why the two detectives in front of her came to find her.

After inviting Zhang Yi and Qiao in, the old woman slowly poured some drinks for the two of them. Judging from the way she was faltering, she must have been immersed in great pain.

Slowly placing the cup in front of the two agents, the old woman sighed quietly.

"I know why you are here. I have communicated the details of the case with several groups of police detectives before, but it has been so long and my child has still not been found."

"Don't worry, Ms. Ima, we are professionals."

Qiao said seriously, calming the other party's emotions.

Seeing this, Zhang Yi couldn't help but look at Qiao in surprise. He didn't expect that this girl's acting skills were so outstanding and skilled. She got into the role in an instant, and even her temperament became different.

At this time, Qiao was wearing a suit and leather shoes, and her serious appearance made it impossible for anyone to see through her disguise.

"That was three months ago. My Rose has always been very obedient. She never ran around or fooled around with others. Every time when school was over, she would go home directly. Every week she would Go to church and volunteer.”

The old woman held the handkerchief tightly. Even after so long, she was still enveloped in endless sadness whenever she talked about it.

"That day happened to be Sunday, and Rose was going to help at the church. It was a busy day. She told me in advance that she might come back later. This kind of thing has happened before, but she would be back at nine o'clock at the latest. ”

"But that day, I waited for a long time, and no one was there from 8:30 to 9:30. I called the priest at the church, but he said that Rose left before 9:00. Logically speaking, it would take ten minutes. Get home, result, result”

Speaking of this, the old woman couldn't help wiping her tears.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Yi and Qiao looked at each other, not knowing what to do. They could only wait until the old woman's mood relaxed a little before continuing to ask.

"I would like to ask if Rose has any close friends, or if she did or experienced any strange things before she disappeared."

Hearing this, the old woman didn't know why the question was so weird, but she still thought about it seriously and then slowly shook her head.

"We moved here after my husband passed away. Within a few years, Rose's friends were all concentrated in the church. As for strange things, there have never been any."

"Then have you had any contact with other people who disappeared in the same year? Those missing people were also girls about the same age as Rose."

"No, we just moved here and we haven't made any friends except neighbors."

The old woman denied again and answered truthfully.

After a brief inquiry, it seemed that the old woman could not provide any useful information, so Zhang Yi and Qiao were ready to leave.

"We will find your child, Ms. Irma, please don't be too sad."

"God bless you."

Although the old woman no longer had any hope, Joe's words still comforted her.

After leaving the old woman's house, Zhang Yi and Qiao casually found a roadside coffee shop.

"There was no strange behavior, no trace of evil spirits, and no clues beyond the victim's name and basic information."

Qiao was a little troubled. She originally thought there were some monsters hunting here, but the rain left traces and the geese left their voices. This kind of killing of young girls would leave some clues.

"It seems that we can only hope that Dean and Sam can find useful information. By the way, Zhang Yi, have you discovered anything?"

"Did you find it?"

Zhang Yi touched his chin.

He has also read the information about this case. Sam has compiled it very completely. Basically, all the things investigated by the police are laid out. The family situation and information of each victim are recorded in detail.

"The victims are all young girls and have just grown up. Does this count?"

Hearing this, Qiao couldn't help laughing.

"Maybe you are a successful superhero, but you are really a complete 'novice' when it comes to investigating supernatural events. Do you know how broad the monster this clue corresponds to is?"

"Perhaps. Indeed, in the eyes of those monsters, young girls are always the best meal. However, if the victims are all virgins, the scope should be narrowed down a bit."

Zhang Yi took a sip of coffee and raised it nonchalantly.

"virgin?"

Joe was stunned for a moment and blinked.

"How did you know?"

"It's not difficult to check. The investigation report of the six missing girls comprehensively records their normal interpersonal relationships. Five of them were single and only one has just made a boyfriend. I guess at their age, their progress should be Not that fast."

With that said, Zhang Yi pointed to the direction they came from.

"That Rose just now often volunteers in the church. She must take chastity very seriously, so from this we can infer that they are most likely to be virgins."

Listening to Zhang Ye's guess, Qiao felt more and more reasonable. In this way, the scope could indeed be reduced to a large extent.

"In that case, werewolves or vampires should be ruled out. I still think this has something to do with the evil god's sacrifice. Only those demons or evil gods would value virgins so much."

"uncertain."

Zhang Yi murmured softly.

At this moment, Joe's phone suddenly rang. He took out his phone and looked at it. The caller ID was Sam who was acting with Dean on the other side.

"Hey, we have some clues here, have you found anything over there?"

After listening quietly for a while, Qiao Fei nodded quickly.

"Okay, I understand, we'll rush back right away"
