The red moon returns

Chapter 333 I am the general
Lynch had a bad premonition in his heart, let go of his pistol and held his cane, and strode into the farmhouse.

A very ordinary farmhouse, a bit messy, but full of life.

Officer Natalie was standing in the middle of the hall, 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 crowded together by the kitchen window.

There is no body, only shadow, stuck to the glass, just like the mark left on the wall after the human body is burnt.

But the shadows could move. They were huddled together and shivering. I wonder if they noticed Officer Lynch and Natalie. One of the shadows extended a small black hand to them.

Then he stopped in front of the window and never moved again.

hiss……

No matter how many times he had seen such a strange death, he could never get used to it. Lynch felt his heart beating wildly, his throat went dry, and he couldn't help but look away.

No, there are eight people in the family, where are the five left?
The police officer was obviously aware of this, and ignored the three black shadows that gradually dispersed. She winked at Lin Qi, then picked up her sword and rushed into the depths. Lin Qi understood and immediately condensed a death-wounding ball of light. Follow closely behind her.

The temperature inside increased significantly, which made both of their hearts sink.

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

Three petite shadows huddled on the ground, leaving three dark marks on the floor, while two adults were huddled in the corner with frightened faces. Right in front of their eyes, they were instantly burned to ashes by the high temperature. He left his shadow in this farmhouse forever.

Why are you surprised? Can a living person be choked to death by urinating?
I'm just trying to find a way to fish. I'm not a policeman, so I don't have to abide by their rules.

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

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

"But we have to consider, what if it's really a mistake? We are the ones who wronged the innocent."

Strangely, those two families died first and then shriveled up. The other two died before they shriveled up, but this family seemed to be directly drained to death. Is there any factor in this that we have not considered?

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

It's still a step too late.

Sure enough, as soon as the two of them rushed into the master bedroom, they felt a rush of hot air hitting their faces.

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

There was no fire in the room, just high heat.

The footsteps got closer and closer in the darkness, and a town citizen ran over panting.

"I'm not willing to give in, but we really have no evidence, so we need to create some evidence as soon as possible."

The cows here are also dead.

The two hurried to take a look. Indeed, just like the Mike's and the old Werther's, the corpse was shriveled up to only skin and bones, completely unlike the ordinary cow carcasses like the other two families.

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

dong dong dong.

"what?"

Mike Melin's wife and children stayed at home after checking on his dead cow and did not leave again. Just now, some friends of his family wanted to comfort them, but found that they refused to come out and open the door. After a stalemate for a while, a fire suddenly broke out in the house, which has not been put out yet.

In the blink of an eye, there were nearly twenty victims. This was the first time that Lynch had seen such a bloody mysterious incident. He could think about things he couldn't figure out later, but if he didn't find a way to stop Will's crazy behavior quickly, the town would Soon there was no one around.

We must first find a way to force out his methods, and then find a way to eliminate the threat. Then start creating evidence.

"Dang, Dang, Dang."

Soon, the dull bell rang in the bell tower in the center of the town, and the whole Wilson Town started to move.

From time to time, townspeople who heard the bells dropped what they were doing and gathered towards the center of the town holding torches.

This is a signal for Wilson Town to call a meeting of the townspeople. Important information is always announced, 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 cases of family murders is more impactful than the blood. For a time, the various strange things that happened in the past few days were connected in people's minds.

Is it really not rinderpest this time, but man-made?
At this moment, someone finally remembered the reply given by the Milt family. Did we blame them wrongly?

No, absolutely impossible.

The crowd outside was getting louder and louder, while Lynch and the police officer were in the clock tower. .

The ground floor of the bell tower is a very rough large room. The huge stone walls have almost no decoration. The floor is made of wood and has been blackened by trampling. There is a red stain the size of a plate in the middle of the floor. It looks quite bright. On the black It's especially obvious on the floor.

In one corner was the staircase leading to the top of the building. At this time, the two of them, led by the fat mayor, went all the way to the top floor.

It is said that representatives of each family 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 will 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, their food consumption is not affected.”

"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.
