Slimes also want to be evil gods

"Newly made viscera painting?!"

"Where is Angelo Marvin in this photo? Wait, don't tell me..."

"Damn, you want to say that the raw material of this painting is Angelo Marvin?!"

"That is to say, he did not make the internal organs painting before, and the real culprit is someone else?!"

The new photo shocked everyone in the conference room, and discussions began about what the photo represented.

This is a different painting of internal organs that has been bombarded by the media in recent days, but it is the same painting made of internal organs, but it may be due to the lack of raw materials, which is different from the previous one. The painter also used some ribs, ligaments and a large piece of skin.

"As I said, this is the Angelo Marvin. The difference from the previous one is that he is the only one who makes up this painting from the beginning to the end... I know what you want to say , but I regret to tell you that we did not make a mistake, the last painting was indeed completed by Angelo Marvin who had already been used as a raw material."

Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Detective Baird knew what they wanted to ask, and blocked their words by speaking ahead of time.

"The person who made this painting is... Wait, who is the original artist of this painting?!"

Needless to say, these people present already knew the weirdness of this case. One of them seemed to want to ask the person who killed Angelo Marvin who made this new painting of internal organs, but something suddenly crossed his mind. Putting aside preconceptions, he carefully observed the familiar appearance of the internal organs painting in the photo, and asked.

"Isaac Mendez... the artist's unpublished work is also one of the five previously stolen paintings."

To this man's surprise, the one who answered him was not Detective Baird who had been explaining, but their boss, Sergeant Gordon, who was sitting at the front and had three stripes on his uniform.Of course, this Sheriff Gordon was not the Sheriff who lived in a simple city, but his surname happened to be the same as Gordon, and his full name was Grover Gordon.

"It's okay to say the first one. Isaac Mendes has published this work on the Internet, but this new internal organs painting has not been made public at all. Only those who have seen the original painting can know... About this We have confirmed it with Isaac Mendes himself."

Unlike Detective Baird, Sergeant Gordon was their immediate boss, and no one would interrupt him if it was not a particularly important situation, allowing him to continue speaking.

"Now your task is not to find the prisoner who made the internal organs painting, but to find these five original paintings, and find them as quickly as possible..."

Chapter 150 Seventh Help Message

Bowen Alves is an ordinary resident living in an apartment in the Bronx district of New York, commuting to and from get off work every day, leading an ordinary but fulfilling life.

The company he works for is an e-commerce company, which sounds good. In fact, it is not much different from Amazon or the like, except that it is many times smaller than Amazon.

Of course, his company can survive like this not because it is better than Amazon's items, but because the "products" they sell are very special, not the kind of physical goods, but data data, such as house design drawings, Individually customized software, FC game codes from 30 years ago, and so on.

The job of Bowen Alves is to communicate with the customer, record the customer's request, and submit it after understanding the customer's intention. If the company can complete it, it will be completed. If it cannot be completed, it will find a group that can fulfill the customer's request. Request a quotation to the other party, and draw a certain percentage of commission after the transaction is completed. At that time, it will become the job of a general intermediary company.

However, the company's business sounds like nothing, but it has a lot of trouble in actual operation, and it's not just anyone who can succeed with a slap in the face.

Because this is not a physical business, most of the people in charge are data models and other things, which are very professional, and it is not easy to fulfill the customer's requirements, requiring various channels.In fact, the company that Bowen Alves worked for had almost no profit in the first three years in order to gain a firm foothold at the beginning of its establishment, and most of its effort was spent on expanding its popularity.

This kind of Bowen Alves recently had something to worry about, which distracted him a bit.

Bowen Alves has a friend named Alan Wake. They were neighbors when they were young. They grew up together and had a very good relationship. When they grew up, they separated because of work and life. Bowen Alves Alves lives in the Bronx, and Alan Wake lives in Manhattan. The distance is not that far away, but they always come out to get together every once in a while, and they also talk on the Internet on weekdays, and the relationship has not been very distant.

And the thing that distracted Bowen Alves was what this Alan Wake said recently.

The cause of the incident was almost three days ago. On that day, Bowen Alves greeted Alan Wake on the Internet as usual, but he did not get a response for a long time. If the conversation on the Internet is such a situation It was normal, so Bowen Alves didn't think too much, thinking that he was going out on business.

The problem is, after waking up the next day, Bowen Alves was surprised to find that Alan Wake, who he thought was out on business, replied to him after 1:[-] in the morning, but the content he conveyed was very strange.

The general meaning of the content is this, Alan Wake feels as if he is entangled by something, something is watching him in the dark, and he can even see some flickering eyes from the corner of his eye, but If he really asked him to move his eyes to observe carefully but found nothing, Alan Wake felt a little scared, so he sent the message to Bowen Alves.

At that time, Bowen Alves thought that Alan Wake just didn't sleep well and thought too much, or that he couldn't distinguish between reality and fantasy because of his work. In short, he didn't say what he said Taking it to heart, he said a few words in a comforting manner. (Alan Wake works for a magazine, sometimes writes and publishes his own manuscripts, and has published a few novels. Unfortunately, those novels have not had much popularity.)

At 1 a.m. that day, at the same time as the previous day, Alan Wake sent another message, this time even more bizarre than before.

Alan Wake claims to have seen monsters, surrounded by a twisting blackness, making a roar similar to human voices, mostly standing outside his house staring at him, but a few have tried to Broke the door of his house.

He didn't dare to open the door, and he didn't dare to go out. He said that his room was surrounded by such monsters, and the scorching sight could be clearly detected even in the daytime, but the daytime was better than the night, compared to the nighttime one. The ubiquitous feeling that during the day those sights can only perceive from the shadows.

Another point is that Alan Wake doesn't have much food, but he said that there is not much food because a kind of mouse with the face of an old woman stole his food, thinking that it must be the accomplice of those monsters , in order to trick those he went out to steal his food.

If everything is just such a written description, Bowen Alves should and will only regard this as a friend's fantasy and will not pay much attention to it. However, the problem is that he did find some places that can be barely used as evidence. The 'record'.

This 'record' was placed on a website that records similar urban legends. Although Bowen Alves didn't believe it, as a friend, he still spent some time searching for Allen without any hope. The latest news around Wake's residence.

To his surprise, he actually found a record on this website, which mentioned the creature that appeared in Alan Wake's description, which was the kind of mouse with the face of an old lady.

However, the publisher didn't seem to take this as a big deal. He just mentioned that he met a mouse in the kitchen in the middle of the night, but the mouse's face was very deformed, and it looked like an old woman.

Although the person involved didn't care much about this, such a record can slightly confirm some of what Alan Wake said.

Even so, Bowen Alves didn't think that the monsters surrounding the darkness that Alan Wake said existed, but if there were people moving in the darkness, it would be normal for people to misjudge them. In that case, he would see The most likely is a thief, a thief.

If it was really a thief, Alan Wake's talk about someone staring at him also made sense.

The problem is that today, unlike before, it was through the computer, and it was not fixed at 1 o'clock in the morning, but in broad daylight, Alan Wake suddenly sent a text message directly to his mobile phone, and the content was also very simple and clear:

Help, they are coming!

This text message disrupted Bowen Alves' original plan, and made him panic, not knowing what to do.

Unlike the previous communication on the Internet, which can be regarded as a joke, direct text messages on mobile phones do not seem to be pranks. What's more, he has said a lot on the Internet in the past few days. No matter what the facts are, Alan Wake sent Such a text message means that his mental state has reached a very bad point.

Chapter 150 The Eighth Strange Ticket

"Sorry, I have to go out for a while..."

Bowen Alves, who received a text message from Alan Wake, was a little anxious, and immediately prepared to put down his work and go to Manhattan to find his friends.

"What... No, no, wait, Bowen, you should know how important this order is now, and this is something that has been determined to be your responsibility last month. You can't leave now, the company Now there are not many people coming out."

Seeing that Bowen Alves really stood up and was about to leave, a man in the office was anxious and tried to dissuade him.

"But I'm really in a hurry, I have to go..."

"Bowen, oh, Bowen, please be rational, this matter is very important now, you should know how much we have paid to win this order, think carefully about whether it is worth it, if the appointment is missed, the company will have to pay a sum High liquidated damages, I beg you, go after the end, I will give you a long vacation after the end, but now, please stay now......"

The man's words made Bowen Alves stop, and turned slightly to face the whole man who discouraged him.

The man's name was Duke Gregory, the founder of the company, that is to say Bowen Alves' top boss.

However, because it is a small company, the total number of people in the company is not large. At the same time, Duke Gregory himself is not a serious and rigid person, or rather a cheerful optimist. The staff mingle.

But no matter how optimistic he was, when he suddenly heard Bowen Alves' horrifying speech and actions at a time when he was busy with business, he had no choice but to step forward to stop him.

"Mr. Duke..."

Looking at the flustered Duke Gregory, Bowen Alves also seemed very embarrassed. He has worked in this company for several years, and he clearly knows how much Duke Gregory has paid for the company. He has not treated him badly on weekdays. When there is nothing to do during working hours, the employees are allowed to do their own things at will, regardless of the working environment or leading colleagues.

It doesn't matter if Bowen Alves leaves, but as Duke Gregory said, the consequences of leaving are very serious.

At first, he panicked because of Alan Wake's text message, but now that he was blocked by Duke Gregory, he also realized his recklessness.

"I understand, I will give priority to completing the company's affairs......"

After hesitating for a while, Bowen Alves finally gave up on rushing to Manhattan to find his friends during working hours.

If you think about it carefully, you will know that Alan Wake's text message is so urgent, even if he rushes right now, it will take at least half an hour to get from his company in the Bronx to Manhattan, but this half hour is not considered waiting. Considering the time of traffic jams in the subway and urban areas, taking into account various possible factors, theoretically, the real time to reach Alan Wake's house should take one hour, and if it is slower, it may take one and a half hours.

Judging from the content of the text message, even if Alan Wake really had something to do, it would be too late for Bowen Alves to arrive an hour later.

Thinking of this, Bowen Alves picked up the phone and called 911. This should be the most correct choice.

"Hello, 911...yes, I'm sure...my name? I'm Bowen...Alves, it's Alan Wake who's asking for help, um, yes, please."

After reporting the general situation to the police, Bowen Alves hung up the phone and heaved a sigh of relief.

Of course he didn't say anything about the rats with the old woman's face that Alan Wake mentioned, the monsters that surround the darkness, the kind that would just make the police take this as a prank call and just say what danger he's in The situation, I just asked him for help, I hope the police will rush over.

Because of worry in his heart, Bowen Alves said that Alan Wake's condition was very dangerous, and the police should not go too late, they will arrive soon.

After doing this, Bowen Alves let go of his worries about Alan Wake and concentrated on his work. Later, because of his busy work, Bowen Alves temporarily Forget about Alan Wake and spend your time like solving jobs.

buzz buzz...... buzz buzz......

Not long after, Bowen Alves' cell phone suddenly received some message and vibrated twice, but he turned his head and saw that the sender displayed on the screen was not Alan Wake but an unknown number. The text message was forgotten.

"Phew, it's finally over... Hey, what is this text message?"

After being busy for some time, Bowen Alves finally settled the order that was entangled with him. If there is no accident, the other party should remit the money to the company's account next week, and he is finally free to check the one he didn't read just now. that text message.

However, the content of this text message surprised Bowen Alves, which was something he had never expected.

This is a ticket from the police station. The general content is that Bowen Alves reported a false police report and wasted police force. He needs to pay a one-time fine of [-] US dollars or a fine of [-] US dollars with a two-week period. Community service, choose between the two to perform.

"What's going on... Allen is okay?"

Although the content of the text message was not much, it contained a lot of information, which made Bowen Alves' brain work rapidly.

First of all, judging from the content, this should not be a prank or a scam, because the text message is to let Bowen Alves take the initiative to go to the nearby police station. If it is fake, it should be a long string of bank card numbers.

Then, the only thing that Bowen Alves reported to the police was the incident in the morning. The text message said it was a false police, which meant that Alan Wake had no accident?

But it's still a bit strange, it's not so easy to identify a false policeman. In the morning, Bowen Alves has clearly stated the address, name and general appearance of his friend Alan Wake. If he can't find anyone It will be considered a false alarm, and it will not be the same if something happens after the person is found, even if it is only some very minor things.

Being identified as a false police officer not only means that the police have found Alan Wake, but also means that Alan Wake personally denied that he had an accident to the police, and clearly stated that he did not encounter any incidents.

If not, Bowen Alves didn't think he would be identified as a false police report.

Chapter 150: Alan Wake

"The result is still here..."

Bowen Alves, who came out of the subway, was full of worries on his way to the house of his friend Alan Wake.

In fact, shortly after receiving the police ticket, he received a text message from Alan Wake's mobile phone. The content roughly meant that nothing happened to him. All kinds of polite words such as the police should be troubled.

Bowen Alves didn't believe it, or anyone who knew Alan Wake's previous message would not easily believe this kind of content that was completely opposite to the previous one, and some wondered if someone had Alan Wake Alan Wake's cell phone sent text messages impersonating Alan Wake.

Therefore, Bowen Alves gave up communicating with text messages and directly dialed Alan Wake's phone number, and the result surprised him very much.

Alan Wake got on the phone, and during the conversation he said that the message he sent to Bowen Alves earlier was that he was thinking too much, there were no monsters around the darkness, and there were no old women The mouse on the face is because he has been too tired from work recently, and he is very sorry for bothering Bowen Alves.

Alan Wake on the phone almost overturned all the previous remarks, and such a crisp speech did not reassure Bowen Alves, but made him even more worried.

So now, here he is.

"Thinking about it carefully, it's true that I haven't been to Allen's house for a while, and I hope there's really nothing wrong..."

Bowen Alves left from the main road, turned into a short-cut road leading to Allen's house, looked at the residential area that was already clearly visible in the distance, and forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in his heart.

"The one mentioned on the Internet is also near here."
