Red Moon Returns

Lin Qi had a bad feeling in his heart, so he let go of his gun and picked up his cane, and strode into the farmhouse.

It was a very ordinary farmhouse, a little messy, but full of the breath of life.

Officer Natalie was standing in the middle of the hallway, looking in the direction of the kitchen on the side. Lynch rushed over and followed her gaze, and saw the petite figures of three children huddled together by the kitchen window.

There were no bodies, only shadows, sticking to the glass, just like the marks left on the wall after the human body was burned.

But the shadows would move, and they were huddled together and shivering. I don’t know if they discovered Lyn Qi and Officer Natalie. One of the shadows even stretched out a black little hand to the two of them.

Then they froze in front of the window and never moved again.

Hiss...

Such a weird death, no matter how many times you have seen it, you can’t get used to it. Lynch only felt his heart pounding, his throat dry, and couldn’t help looking away.

No, a family of eight, where are the remaining five?

The policewoman obviously realized it, and no longer paid attention to the three gradually dispersing shadows. She winked at Lynch, then picked up her sword and rushed into the depths. Lynch understood and immediately condensed a ball of light wrapped in death, following closely behind her.

The temperature inside was obviously rising, which made the two people's hearts sink.

Sure enough, as soon as the two rushed into the master bedroom, they felt a wave of hot air blowing in their faces.

There was no fire in the room, only high temperature.

The three petite shadows curled up on the ground, leaving three black marks on the floor, and the two adults were curled up in the corner with horror on their faces. Right in front of the two people, they were burned into ashes by the high temperature in an instant, leaving the shadows in this farmhouse forever.

It was still a step too late.

Looking at these weird deaths, Lynch's face was gloomy, and Officer Natalie's face was even more livid. In a blink of an eye, a family of eight was wiped out, but the two didn't even know how they died, let alone who the murderer was.

The two stood shoulder to shoulder, looking at the tragic scene in the room in silence. After a long time, Officer Natalie said in a deep voice: "At least I didn't see the existence of aliens."

"The possibility of the cultists offering sacrifices is very high." Lynch said with a serious expression, "I have every reason to suspect that this was done by Will Trevor, but unfortunately there is no evidence."

"I said that guarding order is not guarding the law. Sometimes I don't need evidence."

"But we must consider, what if we are really wrong? We are the sinners who wrongly accuse innocent people."

"What you said makes sense, but let's not talk about the fact that we need to find the root cause of the incident from him and solve it. Even if we can find it ourselves, are you willing to watch him go unpunished because there is no evidence?"

"I'm not willing, but we really don't have evidence, so we need to create some evidence as soon as possible."

"Huh?"

What are you surprised about? Can a living person be suffocated to death?

I'm just trying to find a way to fish. I'm not a policeman, so I don't have to follow their rules.

However, before he started fishing, he was stopped by the town officials waiting outside the door as soon as he went out.

The cows here are also dead.

The two hurried to take a look. Indeed, just like the Mike family and the old Witt family, the corpse was shriveled up with only skin and bones left, which was completely different from the other two families, which were all ordinary cow corpses.

Strange, those two families died first and then shriveled up, and the other two families died before they had time to shrivele, but this family seemed to be drained to death directly. Is there something else we haven't considered?

Dong Dong Dong.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer in the darkness, and a town resident ran over panting.

Mike McLennan's wife and children stayed at home after checking his dead cows and did not leave again. Just now, a friend of his family wanted to comfort them, but found that they refused to come out to open the door. After a stalemate for a while, the house suddenly caught fire and has not been extinguished yet.

In a blink of an eye, there were nearly twenty victims. This was the first time Lynch had seen such a bloody mystery. Things that he couldn't figure out could be thought about later, but if he didn't find a way to stop Will's crazy behavior quickly, there would be no one in the town soon.

We must first find a way to force him to reveal his methods, and then find a way to remove the threat.

Then let's start making evidence.

"Dang, dang, dang."

Soon, the dull bell rang in the bell tower in the center of the town, and the whole town of Wilson was in motion.

From time to time, townspeople who heard the bell put down their work and gathered towards the center of the town with torches.

This is the signal for Wilson Town to call the townspeople to a meeting. There has always been an announcement of important information, and each household will send at least one or two representatives to the square to participate.

The blood under the bell tower has been washed away, but the news of three consecutive murders is more shocking than the blood. For a time, all kinds of strange things that happened in the past few days were connected in people's minds.

Is it really not cattle plague this time, but man-made?

At this moment, someone finally remembered the reply given by the Milt family. Did we blame them wrongly?

No, it's impossible.

The voices outside were getting noisier and noisier, and Lynch and the police officer were in the bell tower. .

The bottom floor of the bell tower was a very rough large room, with almost no decoration on the huge stone walls. The floor was made of wood and had long been trampled black. There was a plate-sized red stain in the middle of the floor, which looked quite bright and was particularly obvious on the black floor.

In one corner was the stairs leading to the roof. At this time, the two of them went up to the top floor under the guidance of the fat mayor.

It is said that representatives from all families are here. Except for the Milt family located outside the town, all the families in the town have arrived.

The bell tower of more than ten meters is not too high. With Lynch's eyesight, the people below can see it clearly.

Lynch immediately caught sight of Will Trevor, who had been driven away in the afternoon. At this time, he was still wearing the same formal attire as he was in the afternoon. He was looking around among the crowd with a calm expression. He did not feel guilty at all because he heard that the three families were exterminated.

It doesn't matter, you'll feel guilty soon.

Click.

call.

Several gas lamps on the top of the bell tower were lit at the same time, illuminating Lynch Levy who was standing at the front.

Mr. Detective straightened his tie, grabbed a simple tin trumpet, coughed dryly and said loudly:

"Ladies and gentlemen, you must have heard that I am an official of the Rhine City Municipal Government and I am here to purchase your beef cattle. Although there are recent rumors that there is a plague in your town, we still invited experts to conduct a detailed inspection and obtained The results are quite gratifying, so let’s ask our experts to announce the results for you.”

Therefore, Officer Natalie Angell, who was an unknown expert, took the tin horn with a dark face, glared at Lynch fiercely, and said in a calm tone: "After inspection, there is no plague in the local area. The dead livestock are all suspected to have died due to collective heatstroke due to excessive temperatures. Although the surviving livestock are in poor health, they do not affect their food consumption.”

"Everyone has heard what the experts said. The experts invited by the government department must be credible. I can buy your products with confidence. However, in line with the idea of ​​being responsible to the city government, we decided to observe one more night. If tomorrow It is true that there has been no more collective heatstroke. I, Speaker Grant, will deal with everyone on the spot and settle the matter in cash. As for the livestock that suffered from collective heatstroke, we are an honest government and will never trade dead cattle. However, We are still willing to provide rescue subsidies at half the price. As for the livestock carcasses, we will take them away and dispose of them. I think everyone should be satisfied with this result. "

The square was silent for a few seconds, then burst into cheers.

The gloom of the past few days was swept away, and everyone was shouting crazily, venting the excitement in their chests.

Not everyone, there are always people who are not so gregarious.

Some people in the crowd almost pulled off their mustaches.

Seeing that the plan that has been worked hard for more than a year is about to be harvested, it is suddenly about to overturn. How are you going to make a comeback, Mr. Trevor?

I'm a general.
