Chapter 3155: Detective is about to die (VI)
Schiller showed the diary to other people, and their opinions were similar to Schiller's, and they all agreed that the owner of the diary might also be dead somewhere.
And one very important piece of information recorded in the diary is that a family’s goat was lost, and it seemed that all the abnormalities started from this incident.
Goats have always been regarded as synonymous with demons. In addition to their strange appearance and square pupils, black goats do look very much like demons when they stand up.
According to the diary entries, a goat was lost and then found, but most likely not alive, so the owner made soup with the goat.
The result was that everyone who drank the goat stew went crazy.
Could the Prowler's arrival have anything to do with the goat, or was the goat lost because of the Prowler's arrival, and the people went crazy because they ate the contaminated goat?
There is not enough evidence at the moment, and it is hard to speculate what happened, but Schiller still said: "The diary may not only contain clues to the main line, but may also be hinting at something for us."
"You mean let's go?" asked the main universe Batman.
Schiller shook his head and said, "Animals. Don't forget that the owner of the diary also found no fish when he went fishing. This means that the Prowler may be able to affect animals."
"We can't trust any animals," Greed said. "Whether it's cats or dogs, or even insects and snakes, they could be related to the Prowler."
"What on earth are those things?" The pale knight stood there, frowning and muttering to himself. He said, "Are they really that difficult to deal with?"
"Not necessarily." Schiller said, "This is just a remote little village. There may not be any real professionals here. The tragedy may not be caused by the strength of the wanderers, but by their own ignorance and weakness."
The Pale Knight just nodded slightly, but it was unclear what he was thinking. Compared to the clown squatting on the ground next to him studying the carpet pattern, he seemed unusually normal.
The kitchen door was finally opened. As soon as the door opened, Schiller smelled an extremely unpleasant fishy odor. He immediately covered his nose, and everyone else also took a few steps back.
Night Owl and the main universe Batman, who were standing in the front, were very cautious not to expose themselves directly in front of the door. Instead, they stood behind the wall on the left and right and looked inside.
They saw a fish, a big red fish, a big red fish with 24 ribs.
The main universe Batman turned his head to look at Schiller instantly, but Bruce turned his head faster than him.
Schiller hadn't seen the scene in the room yet, because the unpleasant smell made him dizzy. Normally, he wouldn't have such a reaction, but perhaps due to the restrictions of the game, his attributes in all aspects were weakened.
Schiller took a few steps forward and saw the big fish hanging in the middle of the kitchen.
He was an extremely strong man, nearly two meters tall, who was hanging upside down in the middle of the kitchen. However, he had no legs or arms. He was like a fish that was wide in the middle and narrow on both sides. His eyes were wide open and his expression was cold and a little weird.
There was blood on his body, mainly concentrated near the missing feet and arms. It should be the blood loss caused by the loss of limbs, but other than that, there were no very obvious external injuries. It seemed that the cause of death was excessive blood loss.
But obviously this was very wrong, because this was not the smell of a rotting human body.
Schiller found that the corpse's belly was particularly large.
Worried about triggering another fight, the main universe Batman and Night Owl walked in front. The main universe Batman poked the corpse lightly with a shotgun, but there was no reaction. It seemed that the man was dead.
Schiller walked over and picked up a kitchen knife. Before he started, he said to the Transcendent in his mind, "I'm not going to dissect him. I'm just going to cut open his stomach. Don't tell me that this also requires rolling the dice."
The Transcendent did not respond, but seemed to have agreed that there was no need to throw the dice. Schiller slashed with the knife, and countless rotten fish carcasses flowed out of the man's stomach, stinking.
Now the others couldn't bear it anymore, and except for Batman and Night Owl who had twitching expressions, everyone else started vomiting.
Schiller's face didn't look very good either. The smell of rotting fish was simply a torture, much more terrible than the stench of a rotting human body.
But Schiller still endured the unpleasant smell and used a sharp kitchen knife to search through the pile of fish corpses.
He found several human toe bones.
Then he found more bone fragments, and he stood up and stared at the pile of decay and said, "He ate his own hands and feet."
"What?" Greedy asked.
"I mean, his missing arms and legs are in his stomach."
"Ugh!" Greedy started vomiting again.
Schiller groped for the wooden handle of the kitchen knife and stood there thinking. He went around to the back of the body and found obvious signs of friction on the back of the body. It was wet, dirty, and stained with some unknown grass debris.
Schiller reached out and took down a relatively intact piece of grass, and immediately realized that this thing was not an ordinary herb, but a reed leaf.
The body had been to the water?
But why are the friction marks on the back?
Schiller looked up at the missing feet of the corpse again, and at this time Batman said: "They didn't walk with their feet."
Of course, Schiller also discovered the similarities between the two corpses. The first corpse was walking backwards, and the second corpse simply had no feet. Both corpses moved long distances before death, but neither used their feet.
Is this a habit of the Prowler?
Schiller would rather believe that it was not that the Wanderer could not fully control the human corpse, but that he could only do this and he could not use his feet. Why?
Schiller raised his question, and the others started discussing it. Bruce was the first to say, "Maybe his form is different from that of humans. In his opinion, his feet are not used for movement."
The Pale Knight seemed to agree with this speculation. He said, "These strange monsters must use their bodies differently from humans. He may not know what walking is."
"No." Batman of the main universe said, "If he couldn't walk, then the first corpse wouldn't have walked backwards."
This silenced everyone, because Batman was right, the first body was just upside down, but judging from the wear and tear on the scalp, this monster could walk on two legs, at least it could move here in the snow in this posture.
Judging from the friction marks on the back of the second body, he might have been lying on the ground and moved here from somewhere by the water.
Isn't it the same monster that controls both of them?
Now that they couldn't find the answer, they could only look for more clues on their own. The door from the kitchen to the staircase corridor next door was not locked, but no one dared to go upstairs rashly. Basically, everyone endured the stench and looked for clues in the kitchen.
Schiller saw the fish basket in the corner of the room and found the same reed clippings in it, which meant that the deceased had indeed come from the river bank and he might have gone fishing.
This corpse must be the owner of the diary, Schiller thought.
Schiller found some lures in the drawer. They were obviously handmade and a little rough, but they might be very useful. Schiller was not good at lure fishing, so he asked the clown to take the baits.
Bruce found some footprints at the junction of the kitchen and the stairwell, which were obviously the footprints of a living person.
This is not very surprising. The main reason is that if there was no third person, the second body would not have been able to be hung on the beam. After all, it didn't even have arms and legs, so how could it hang itself up?
"Found the clue." said the Transcendent.
"I'll take a closer look." Schiller immediately walked over and said, and a dice appeared in front of him.
"Wisdom check 20."
The dice drew an arc in the air and landed on 12. Adding Schiller's 10-point wisdom attribute, the check passed with 22 points.
Finally succeeded, Schiller sighed.
Some information immediately appeared in his mind. From the pattern of the shoes, he could tell that this should be a lady. She was overweight, had slightly uneven shoulders when she walked, and she walked in a hurry and ran very fast.
After Schiller explained this information, several people immediately looked upstairs. It was known that there was only one staircase in the house. If there were only footprints going up and no footprints coming down, it would prove that the person was most likely still upstairs, but it was hard to say whether he was dead or alive.
"what!!!!!!"
A sharp scream broke the silence in the room, and the people downstairs rushed up the stairs without any hesitation.
The best news is that there are still people alive.
The main universe Batman took the lead and rushed directly to the corridor on the second floor.
boom!
There was a sound of a gunshot, but no one fired it, followed by the sound of breaking glass.
The noises were too obvious, so the main universe Batman rushed directly to the innermost room on the second floor. When he opened the door, he saw a plump middle-aged white woman wearing a headscarf, holding a revolver with the muzzle pointed directly at the window.
"It's coming! It's coming!!!" the woman shouted randomly, even pointing the gun directly at Batman.
Batman had no choice but to hide outside the door to avoid the spotlight for the time being.
"Where's the psychiatrist?!" The main universe Batman shouted towards the corridor, "Come here quickly, there is a patient here who needs your comfort!"
Greed, who was in the third position, turned around and shouted, "Where's the psychiatrist?!"
Bruce behind him turned around and shouted: "Where's the psychiatrist?!"
Schiller, who had just come up the stairs, looked at him coldly.
It took Bruce a while to react, "Oh, wait, I'm a psychiatrist. Coming, the psychiatrist is here!"
He quickly ran into the room, and when he saw the black muzzle of the gun, he stopped suddenly, turned around and said to the main universe Batman outside the door: "You didn't say she had a gun!"
"Why would I need you if she doesn't have a gun?!"
Bruce was choked and quickly stretched out his hands and said, "Calm down, ma'am, you are safe now. We are here to protect you. I think you can put down the gun and let's talk..."
boom!
He was answered by another gunshot, and the woman, who seemed to have gone insane, fired a shot at the curtains.
There was no point in talking, so Bruce turned around and waved to the main universe Batman and said, "You should come."
The main universe Batman then raised his shotgun and aimed at the woman's head, but the woman was still confused, and kept muttering something like "It's coming, it's coming", without any other reaction.
"Do you know psychoanalysis?" Greedy asked, but strangely, the person he was asking was Bruce.
Bruce nodded and said, "Yes, I have learned some."
Schiller added in his mind: "Whether or not one has learned it is another matter."
"It's impossible to get anything out of her in her current mental state. You analyze it." Greed pointed at the woman and said.
"Uh..." Bruce said with a long tone: "I'm not very skilled, so maybe...Okay, I'll try."
Bruce activated his skill, but there was no response. He called the Transcendence twice in his mind, and the Transcendence said helplessly: "Primary skills are the theoretical knowledge in your mind. You have to analyze it yourself."
"what?!"
When Bruce looked up, he saw Schiller leaning against the door with an expression that said "I want to see what you have to say."
Let's get started
