Parsnip, a herb from a fertile land, according to those Scholar records, it also has another better known name, Mandela. But in fact these two herbs are not one at all. Mandela grass is a very common hallucinogenic herb. It is used as an anesthetic by the local aborigines. It is now one of the components of the flooded hallucinogen in the lower city district.
Parsnip is wrapped in Lorenzo cigarettes. Different from the common mandela, this herb is carefully cultivated by local wizards. They believe that smoking this herb will build a bridge with the unknown and touch the mysterious. The medium, they usually use this to communicate with the dead.
The technology of steam is so advanced, the theory of ghosts and gods has long been forgotten, but there are still remnants of the old age who firmly believe in these.
Lorenzo also discovered this effect in an old book, and then with the help of Burlau, he got some in the hands of some smugglers. In the beginning, he had the mentality of a try, but after so long of investigation, Lorenzo found that this thing can indeed play some role.
What you see is not just a simple illusion, part of it is real, and this real part is what Lorenzo needs.
The lights went out one by one, and the cold air in the dark became humid, Lorenzo smelled the sea again, countless raindrops fell on the deck, and he returned to the ship.
The corpse was slowly wriggling in the dark, it was coming back to life, it was clear that the cigarette butt’s fire was not so bright, but in the dark all this was so clear, Lorenzo watched quietly.
The internal organs began to shrink until only a small section of the stomach and intestines remained, and the skeleton began to twist and deform, because the past growth propped up the fragile skin, and the dark red blood vessels under it could be clearly seen.
A hoarse voice came from the shriveled throat, like the wailing before tragic death.
It was a daunting scene, but Lorenzo didn’t care, he didn’t seem to be afraid.
The cigarette is more than half burned.
Parsnip connects him with the mysterious world, and the time this tobacco burns is the time he can stay in the dead man’s world.
Not enough, it’s not enough.
Suddenly the feeling of being peeped rose in the mind, so familiar, just like when in a carriage, the thing that had been peeping at him in the dark, Lorenzo turned his head violently to try to find the weird silhouette in the dark, But in the next second, the twisted body knocked him down with a strong smell of blood.
It’s Wall, or Wall’s corpse.
It knocked Lorenzo down from the chair and pressed him under his body. The sharp claws squeezed his head, the ribs opened like a predator’s mouthparts, and Lorenzo was clamped with dried blood. tight.
look at me!
There seemed to be a sound, and what caught my eyes was the hideous face with great pain. Above this, the pupils were dark and muddy, but there was a faint green light inside.
There was intense pain coming from the body, but Lorenzo didn’t care, he looked directly at the pupil, and in the reflection in the darkness he finally saw the truth of that part.
That is a beacon rising in the green light.
……
The cigarettes were finally burned out, and the light returned to the world.
Lorenzo seemed to have awakened from hibernation, his movements stiff and blank in his eyes. After releasing his hand, the cigarette butt fell off, and he sat in a chair in a daze for a long time before he recovered.
This is the side effect after smoking, Lorenzo feels like a mentally retarded for a short time every time it ends.
Everything was dreamlike. Wall’s body did not come back to life. He still lay quietly in front of him. He was not knocked down. He sat in the original place, as if everything that was real just now was an illusion. The pain is so real.
It’s an illusion, but there is also reality,
Like the last scene he saw, the lighthouse.
Lorenzo is not sure what role the lighthouse has in this case, but at least now he has a general idea.
Weird body and lighthouse.
Stand up slowly, the stiffness is still there, which makes him feel very uncomfortable. Maybe this is also one of the side effects of Parsnip. At first, this mentally retarded state is very short, but with the frequent use, the time becomes more and more. Long.
Maybe I can find the poor director Boscaro for a physical examination in a few days. At any rate, the director should be able to save a lot of things, right?
After doing all this, it was time to leave, but just then the sound of the bullet’s loading sounded.
“Put your hands up!”
Eve raised his pistol and pointed it at Lorenzo.
Through childhood Eve’s intuition is very keen, and this time is no exception. She felt that someone was walking by her inside the mist, and couldn’t help but feel the strangeness in her heart. She finally caught this sneaky person here.
“What happened to the detective?”
Turning around, Lorenzo’s expression was perfect, with a trace of calm in his panic, like a good citizen who was misunderstood by the police.
Old Turin people from all trades, as a great detective who confuses them, Lorenzo has to know a little about everything.
“what are you doing?”
Eve is a newcomer. This is the first time she has pointed a gun at a person. Looking at Lorenzo’s expression, she really felt that she had misunderstood him for a while.
“This is my nephew. He was murdered this morning. I can’t bear to feel sad…”
Lorenzo said, hiding his face.
Eve stepped closer, but she still didn’t let her guard down.
“Your nephew… is a Viking?”
The appearance of the corpse was illegible, but Viking’s favorite big braid was still hanging on the corpse’s head.
Lorenzo’s cry stopped, and then Eve saw the nameplate on the iron cabinet, the case she was in charge of.
The last sympathy is gone, Eve coldly said.
“Sir, you may need to come with me.”
The scene was embarrassing for a while.
Lorenzo once sneaked into the Imperial Family Art Academy. In order to allow him to enter the role at any time to deceive others, he studied in the acting department for more than a year. At first everyone thought he was a passing tourist, and then he was an auditor. , Students, and even the professor finally met this outstanding student named Lorenzo and invited him to perform at the Imperial Family Opera House.
But such an outstanding student suddenly disappeared a year later. The professor ran through the list and did not find this person named Lorenzo Holmes. He seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. Everyone remembers the youngster who brimming over with talent. His name is not on the attendance list or even the student record, just like a ghost.
But no matter how good the performance is, no matter how rigorous the fraud is, Lorenzo can’t deceive anyone in direct evidence, so he laughed embarrassingly.
On the surface, Eve is very serious, but his heart is full of joy. Sure enough, there is something wrong with this case. Otherwise, why would this person sneak in to investigate this not worth mentioning corpse?
“Turn around!”
He threatened Lorenzo with his gun. He was very cooperative and turned around so slowly. Eve put down the gun and took out the handcuffs, but Lorenzo moved in a flash.
The black trench coat, which was wide and knee-less, was shaken vigorously. It directly occupied most of Eve’s field of vision. She held the gun in one hand and the handcuffs in the other. The young detective was obviously panicked. God, pulled the trigger, but the slender hand still couldn’t control the recoil, and the bullet went wrong.
A big hole was punched out of the black trench coat, and the muzzle of the black hole protruded from under the trench coat.
“Detective, don’t move.”
Lorenzo held Winchester, his hand on the lower iron lever, and loaded it.
The situation reversed in an instant, and Eve could only stare at all this in a daze.
Obviously, the impact in front of this newcomer is a bit big for this newcomer. The first case of a new sprout involves a bad detective who has been around for a long time in Old Turin, like a sheep and a hungry wolf are locked together.
“This is a morgue. There are not many people here. Even if I kill you, no one will know that I killed you. Do you understand?”
Eve is very cooperative and nodded. Even if he shoots, he is not as fast as Lorenzo. Not to mention that Lorenzo’s gun is more threatening than its lethality.
But Eve soon realized one thing.
“Did you kill him?”
Although I have never seen a shotgun with such an exquisite workmanship, isn’t it essentially a shotgun? Consistent with the gunshot wound that killed Wall, combined with the suspicious nature of this mysterious person sneaking into the morgue, Eve is sure that the man in front of him killed Wall.
I knew I wouldn’t come here alone, I should be called Price, although in this situation, what Price can do.
“Don’t slander people, detective, I’m a legal citizen of Irvine.”
Lorenzo is telling the truth, but Burlau gave him his identity. In this regard, Burlau is still very reliable. As long as he gives enough money, he can create any identity for you. Please note that it is not forgery, but official. Recognized identity.
Lorenzo was talking bad words, but the thoughts in his mind were working wildly, he was thinking about what to do next.
Similarly, Eve is also thinking about what to do. She doesn’t want her first case to become her last case.
But at this moment the translucent yellow liquid flowed under Lorenzo’s feet, with a peculiar smell flowing from outside the door of the morgue
“Detective, what do you think this is?”
Lorenzo lowered his head and said suddenly.
“I think it might be oil.”
“I think…you guessed it right.”
As Lorenzo’s words fell, a raging fire surged from the door of the morgue, like a fire demon from hell. The instant raging flame ignited everything for 4 weeks, and the cold temperature of the morgue rose and changed. It’s hot.
This is a Danger Land, and there is only this gate leading to the way out, but now it is sealed by the fire, and the fire is still intensifying.
“what happened……”
At the last moment Lorenzo opened Eve, otherwise Eve, who was leaning on the door, would be swallowed by fire in an instant.
“It’s a clue.”
The man’s voice was somewhat morbidly excited.
Eve looked towards one side, the fire light illuminates Lorenzo’s face, and a bigger fire burns in his eyes.
Sure enough, Wall’s death attracted the attention of those people. They didn’t want the secrets in Wall’s body to be discovered, so they came here to set fire.
“Detectives come and help if you don’t want to die.”
Lorenzo said that he kicked over the iron cabinets where the corpses were hidden. They were stacked by each and everyone and could be taken apart.
“what are you doing?”
Eve can’t understand the operation of this person anymore. It is obvious that the fire has already burned in front of his eyes…He is still fighting with these dead people.
“Live… You never want to be cremated here with these corpses, right?”
“A bunch of you and a bunch of you will never be separated?”
