Chapter 689: Chapter 511: Mysterious Disappearance _1 Chapter 689: Chapter 511: Mysterious Disappearance _1 “He” was waiting.
The discovery of the body was within “his” expectations, and the fear and unrest exhibited by these foolish mortals at the moment were precisely what “he” wanted to see. In fact, these mortals were not just the audience of this performance, but they were also the sacrifices for the horrifying and great being soon to descend upon this world!
Feel honored, foolish, humble mortals, how fortunate you are, to be granted the privilege and glory to be the first to face that being, merging with its soul and flesh.
Thinking of this, “he” revealed a cold smile, but as the corners of his mouth just curled up, he saw the girl blocking the gate, holding a Holy Canon in her arms, looking curiously at him. Startled, “he” quickly lowered his head, at the same time, “he” also mocked the girl's stupidity in his heart.
Believing in a deity that doesn't exist at all, it's utterly foolish. I really want to see what your reaction will be when you face the True God……
Thinking of this, “he” clenched his fists, laughing silently in his heart.
The great return is about to come! And I will show you the infinite divine power of that being!!
As someone was daydreaming, Duanmu Huai was searching the room with others.
No useful clues were found in places like the medical room and warehouse. As for Williams' room, Duanmu Huai had taken a look — since Ling'Nu had no reaction, it was likely that nothing was there.
Next, he came to another guest room, which belonged to the body discoverer, Fred Winston.
Although he was the first to find the body, it does not mean he is free from suspicion. On the contrary, often the first one to discover the scene of a case is the most suspicious. This is not because Duanmu Huai has any investigative experience, it was simply that such things happened too frequently in his video games. These cultists would play a variety of roles, pretending to be the first discoverer and even the victim.
Having seen a lot, he became accustomed to it.
However, when Duanmu Huai pushed open the door of Fred's room and saw the scene inside, everyone was taken aback.
The floor of the entire room was filled with circular arrays and patterns similar to the ones surrounding the previous corpse. The room was lit with candles, a forbidding and eerie sight. Something was clearly wrong!
“Could Mr. Fred be the culprit?!”
Seeing this, the bodyguard and the doctor were startled. They, of course, knew who the first discoverer was, but as ordinary people, they would subconsciously believe that the first discoverer of the body was unlikely to be the murderer. This logic was normal because if someone had done something wrong, they would hope to be discovered as late as possible. Who would expose their wrongdoing deliberately?
But the evidence at hand is compelling……
“All right, Fred may not necessarily be the culprit.”
Duanmu Huai seemed quite calm as he raised his hand to gesture.
“But these bizarre arrays here are clearly the same as the ones in the smoking room!”
“Similar, but whether the effects are the same is uncertain.”
As Duanmu Huai spoke, he walked into the room, then he bent down and sniffed.
“Does Fred smoke?”
“This……”
Hearing Duanmu Huai's question, everyone looked at each other. Soon, a female postgraduate student nodded.
“He does smoke! I just saw him holding a pipe when I came out!”
“Good, let's continue.”
Duanmu Huai noted this in his mind then turned to leave. Since Ling'Nu didn't react, it meant there were no useful clues in the room ….That's right, Duanmu Huai didn't bother rummaging for things, he had Ling'Nu as the specialist, and he was happy to be just the tool.
After leaving the room, Duanmu checked the other rooms. Everything seemed normal except for Fred's room which had some suspicious elements.
The three opposite cabins belonged to the deceased Williams, his bodyguard Dort and Arthur Dort, respectively.
Duanmu Huai had already been to the rooms of Williams and Dort, and nothing unusual was discovered. However, Arthur's room was an unexpected bonus for Duanmu Huai. Initially, he had just intended to go through the motions, but to his surprise, as he opened the door and walked into Arthur's room, the black cat on his shoulder seemed to have found something. It suddenly meowed, jumped down, and darted straight into the trash can in Arthur's room.
“Hey, hey, hey, don't go anywhere.”
Seeing the black cat pounce into the trash can, Duanmu Huai was taken aback for a moment. He quickly reached out to pull Ling'Nu from the trash, then he looked into the trash can, and saw a pile of shredded paper- and it wasn't ordinary paper, it looked like …… photos?
“What is this?”
Duanmu Huai picked up the pieces of paper from the trash can and began to put them together….Yes, it was indeed a photo.
It was a group photo of several people.
If it were just that, then it would be fine, but the problem was …….the people in the photo seemed off.
