Red Moon Returns

Chapter 59 Photos (two chapters in one, please continue reading)

"These people are as annoying as mosquitoes in the night, they should be taken to the club bar to feed the lizards."

The two of them had escaped to the alley and were peering inside from a distance. Officer Natalie looked gloomy and said bitterly:

"It seems that your guess was correct, Lynch. Even the furniture was moved away. These people really did not hesitate to sabotage our actions just to target us. Fortunately, I listened to your reminder and did not wait for the notice from the Hall of Order, otherwise I would have been able to see you. There were only empty rooms left. I didn’t expect you to be quite familiar with their style. Have you ever been in contact with these departments as a detective before?”

The traditional entertainment skills of the New York Police Department and the FBI have been seen too much on TV, and yours is just a small show at best.

Lynch smiled and shook his head, but there was a bit of doubt in his expression: "But I am worried about one thing. How do they know?"

"I wasn't prepared for them to be so shameless. They didn't pay attention to confidentiality when they mobilized the police to raid Downey's residence. They should have noticed it."

"No, that's not what I'm talking about. Pay attention to what he just said." Lynch whispered, "They want to move all the furniture away to prevent us from finding things again."

The police officer looked serious: "Does that mean they already know what we harvested yesterday?"

"Yes, otherwise they wouldn't have said that, but even Editor-in-Chief Donald didn't know about the note we found yesterday, only the two of us knew. I'm sure I didn't tell anyone. Who did you mention it to?"

"Absolutely not, I didn't even report it to Victor." The police officer guessed, "It seems they also have a special way to understand our progress."

"Is there such a weird method?"

"Which of the three abilities you have mastered do you think is not weird? In a mysterious world, weird abilities are always difficult to guard against. It is not difficult to learn about our progress." Officer Natalie sighed, "It seems that We can't think that we have gotten rid of them. We don't know when they will catch up again. We must also speed up the progress and not give them another chance to sabotage the investigation. Otherwise, I will not be willing to let people like Grant who use mystery to disrupt order succeed. Okay. Now that you have these things, especially the photos you found, do you think Downey died because of these photos?”

"Well, it's very possible. Editor-in-chief Donald confirmed that Downey had nothing to do with Maya's report. In theory, Maya's disappearance should not affect him. So he went to the newspaper office on the 13th and everything was normal, but on the evening of the 13th he closed When it comes to the photos, he died on the 15th. You said that there are no coincidences in the mysterious world. The only thing that can connect the two is these photos."

"That's right, these things are the key evidence." The police officer breathed a sigh of relief, "With it, we at least have the initiative. Let's go back to the Scarecrow Club first to see what is hidden in the photos. What's the secret?"

As they spoke, the two walked out of a street onto the main road, hailed an open taxi and went straight to the Scarecrow Club. Of course, the decayed public official with a monthly salary of ten pounds paid the fare.

"Do you need any special equipment to read the documents?" It wasn't until he got on the carriage that Lin Qi carefully turned on the phantom voice, and asked the coachman in a low voice, "Why do you want to go back to the club?"

"That's not true. All you need to decipher the mysterious documents is a quiet environment. You don't have to worry about the documents affecting ordinary people. As long as they don't read them, the mysterious documents are not dangerous to them."

"Then why do you want to go back and watch again?"

"Because we who read the documents may be dangerous to ordinary people."

"ha?"

"Listen, Lynch, unknown mysterious documents are often extremely dangerous, because we have to read them to know how dangerous they are. Although the spirit of our soul-shifters is relatively resistant to mystery, it can only alleviate the mystery. The impact on our spirit is not completely eliminated. Under the impact, we may also lose control of our emotions and lose consciousness. In the term of the mysterious hunter, it is temporary madness. It may harm those innocent ordinary people. If we misread the level of destruction or even Advent-level mysterious documents may even be distorted and out of control, which would be even more disastrous for the ordinary people around them. "

Lin Qi felt a little cold in his heart as he listened.

"So whether they are official or secret societies, most mysterious organizations will have special places and procedures for interpreting mysterious documents. I will explain the specific procedures in detail when the time comes."

The specialized venue that Officer Natalie was talking about was, of course, the Scarecrow Club.

At 10:30 in the morning, the two walked through the deserted club bar and went directly into the basement.

The underground is still the same, with several long corridors exuding a lingering darkness and depression. Go straight down the right corridor, and a huge metal door similar to the airtight door in your hometown lies at the end of the corridor.

When I pulled the door rope, I couldn't hear any bells ringing inside. However, not long after, the viewing window was opened. A look turned around on Officer Natalie's face, and then there was a sound of metal friction and collision inside the door. the sound of.

The door creaked for a full minute before the door slowly opened inwards.

Behind the door is a deeper corridor. Standing at the door is a middle-aged man wearing a single-sided glasses.

He is about forty years old, thin, wearing a shirt and overalls, with a pipe in his mouth. His face is unhealthy and pale, his eyes are dark and bloodshot.

Lin Qi felt particularly friendly at first sight. Otakus who stay up late are attracted to each other!

"Mr. Klin." The police officer raised her hat and bowed, "Excuse me, we need to read the documents."

After the swirling smoke, two eyes shot into Lynch's face like knives.

Inspiration did not warn, indicating that this person was only an elementary soul-shifter with power level three or below, but facing his gaze, Lin Qi felt like he had been seen through from the inside out.

"A very ordinary soul, nothing special about it."

Mr. Klin's words made Lin Qi tremble, and then he realized that his soul had been peeped. Fortunately, Ms. Red Moon's will was not discovered, otherwise he might be regarded as an alien, or even be in trouble.

[No need to worry about that, Lynch. 】

'He can't see you? ’

[Yes, just like the two old rulers. 】

‘Evil gods are the same as mortals? ’

【Is there a difference? 】

'No, I like that answer. ’

Lynch was completely relieved and smiled calmly at Mr. Klin.

"But your willpower is exaggerated. No wonder you can live to such a great height with such high inspiration, and you are not crazy."

Lin Qi curled his lips inwardly, "I'm sorry to disappoint you."

"Come in, I am the administrator of the archives. You can call me Mr. Klin. I am responsible for collecting the corpses of readers. My methods may be a bit rough. I hope you don't mind."

"Thank you, but I think it may not be needed." Lynch said expressionlessly.

"Well, your willpower does not require you to avoid reading mysterious documents. Some people have such low willpower that they can't even touch it. However, most of the people I deal with are professionals with high willpower. Do you know why? "

"Are all those who drowned able to swim?"

"You're smart, just know this."

Klin got out of the way and locked the iron door again before handing each of them a cigarette and pointing to the room closest to the door:

"Remember, every mysterious document is extremely dangerous, even those with the ability to teach cannot be taken lightly. I know you need to understand the content above, and I warn you that all the information above, even a line, is full of You must not delve into the strange and twisted power, the mystery is hidden in it, ready to drag you into hell at any time. "

Lin Qi made a swallowing motion and nodded honestly.

"Still the old rules, two people monitor each other, and only one person can read at a time. Once you find something wrong with your partner, interrupt the other person immediately, exit the reading room, finish your cigarette, and wait at least seven days before reading again."

"Does it take that long?"

"I just finished renovating the reading room here. Guess why?"

As he said that, he helped the two people turn on the gas lamp in the reading room: "I'm in the archives. I hope you don't need my help to deal with the aftermath. I wish you good luck."

Click, the door closed.

Inside is a very quiet room, with soft sofas and elegant incense, giving people a bright, comfortable and pleasant feeling.

"Don't mind if Klin doesn't sound very nice. He actually doesn't mean any harm, but he's just not used to communicating with others."

"I don't mind, and I quite like him. At first glance, he is a professional who devotes his attention to his own field. I admire this kind of person very much."

"Well, although his strength is average, about the same as mine, he is an expert in occultism." The police officer explained, "He is the most professional occultist in the Rhine branch of the Watch. His mastery of mysterious documents is unrivaled in the entire Rand The kingdom is famous. He has cracked enough mysterious documents to fill a library. He has made the rules, and we'd better follow them unconditionally."

"Yeah, I promise."

"Okay, let's get started, I'll read it."

The police officer sat down skillfully, dumped the contents of the evidence bag on the coffee table, and reached out to take the photo, but as soon as she touched the photo, her hand was held down by Lynch.

"I know you have courage, Lynch, but now is not the time to scramble. There is indeed great danger, but I have the same experience you don't have. I know how to deal with it. You don't, so I am better at reading than you. You Responsible for assisting.”

"But if I suddenly go crazy, you can control me and beat me awake. But if you suddenly go crazy, you can only beat me to death."

The police officer paused and slowly retracted her hand: "Then look, remember to stop every minute and I will remind you."

"Um."

Lin Qi closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, then quickly picked up the stack of documents.

It was a thick stack of new photos, all in black and white. The sharpness was terrible for Lynch, but at least he could distinguish the scenery. There were numbers on them in delicate and delicate female fonts.

It started with just a few landscape photos, which should be in a mountainous area. Through the surrounding sparse vegetation, you can see the stretching mountains in the distance.

There are two other people featured in these photos.

A young and beautiful girl appeared on the scene, wearing light and flexible clothes, with a relaxed smile on her face, and she seemed to be in a good mood. The other was a middle-aged man dressed as a mountain man, with a simple and dull expression. He should be a guide.

But after a few photos, a huge cave appeared in the photo, and then the photos of people no longer appeared. Several consecutive photos showed the environment inside the cave. It was deep and rugged. The environment should be very dark, relying on the strong light of the old-fashioned spotlight. Under the illumination, the outline can barely be seen.

Rock walls, mushrooms, gravel, dark shadows.

Um?

After flipping through the photos, Lynch flipped back again.

He seemed to see a vague black shadow hiding in the corner of the cave.

If you get closer and look closer, you will see that it indeed looks like a twisted human figure. It is so dark that it almost blends into the environment. Only the teeth and two eyes exposed in the cracked mouth reflect bright light in the black and white environment.

Is this thing a person?

Lin Qi quickly rummaged back and forth, but there was neither the previous one nor the next one.

I don’t know if it’s just an illusion caused by the angle, or it didn’t get captured.

However, the photos are not continuous. If there is something real, it is normal that it cannot be captured.

"One minute, stop."

"Wait a minute, don't stop here."

Lin Qi subconsciously shouted out, but reason immediately prevailed. While slapping himself, he covered the photo again.

"How's it going? How do you feel?"

"It's hard to say. I haven't found anything special yet. I just saw something strange and was interrupted." Lin Qi rubbed his cheeks to try to stay awake, "But I found something quite strange. ”

"Um?"

"The photos are indeed attractive, but I don't have the feeling of looking at mysterious documents as you said. I do feel that there is a strong sense of mystery and filth in the documents, but I don't feel the weirdness and fearful distortion between the lines or the graphic lines. A sense of impact. It's like..." Lynch hesitated for a long time before finding the right word, "It's like what I'm looking at is a mysterious document, not a mysterious document. I don't know if this is it. My misconception."

[No, what you see is an ordinary document contaminated with thick mysterious filth. The document itself is not mysterious, it is just contaminated with too much filth. 】

‘Why is this happening? ’

quietly.

"Are you sure? Let me take a look and you can supervise it for me."

The police officer pulled the photos and looked through them one by one. Lynch carefully stared at the pocket watch to count the time, but when the minute was almost up, without waiting for his reminder, Officer Natalie had already raised her head.

"Really, it seems to be just an ordinary document, but the mysterious filth alone wouldn't have caused Donnie to die so quickly. Why is this happening? Did we find the wrong thing?"

"Probably not. The mysterious filth on it is too strong, stronger than any mysterious thing I have ever seen. There is definitely something wrong with this thing, but we haven't found the key point yet."

"Indeed, it's better to be careful and interpret the mysterious documents the same way. You continue."

"Um."

Lynch quickly turned back to the previous number.

The next few pictures are also tunnels, but there are signs of human activity. Various wooden, stone and even metal utensils are distributed in the cave. It seems that many people have lived here for a long time, and they are very orderly.

Huh, it seems that this should be the stronghold of some group, maybe the mountain people, and the black shadow just now is...

As soon as Lynch took a breath, he turned to the next photo and saw a big face in the photo.

It was as if someone had held a camera in front of him, and his entire face was almost filled with photos.

Extremely twisted, extremely ugly, extremely ferocious.

It was a face that was difficult to describe in words.

The moment he saw the face, Lynch felt an instinctive physical discomfort, and his stomach churned violently, just like the first time he saw the body of drunk Peter. He covered his mouth and retched, with only one thought in his mind.

What the hell is this.
