Offer a savior to the infinite world!

As the footsteps moved, the floor began to scream.

Just like the screams of the person who was killed here last night.

crunch--

Another step forward, and the piercing, sharp sound was heard again.

But there shouldn't be any sound.

Because last night, neither Martin's father, Old Jack, his mother, Marison, nor his wife heard any unusual sounds.

No matter how loud the rainstorm is, it cannot cover up the screams of a person dying in a house.

So the sound must be muffled.

There was some force that concealed the sound that was made at that time.

"Unlike what Suzuran Tanjiro and I encountered, is this an enemy with the ability to mask sound?"

Considering the miserable condition of the corpse, and perhaps also considering the difference in strength, that is no longer a strength that a human being can possess.

Being able to easily kill an adult man working on the farm without any resistance, this level of creature is not even close to being a leopard, it should be considered at the level of a lion or tiger. If you think about it this way, the situation is really not good, but if it really has this level of power and sadistic desire, there is no reason for it to retreat so quickly when it attacked them on the spot. Is it because the two are not the same individual? Or is it because the hunter retreated out of caution.

There are many possibilities to think about and analyze, and Lin Yi couldn't find a suitable option for a while.

"Well, the place where the door opens, um, is it here? Is this the first position..."

Muttering to himself, Lin Yi stopped in front of the kitchen door.

No matter what happened last night, what is certain is that Martin, who got up to go to the bathroom that night, must have heard some noise and was attracted by some movement, so he walked towards the kitchen, pushed open the door and stepped into the room.

Lin Yi's eyes swept along the blood splattered by the door.

The first blow cleanly severed his left arm, the hand holding the oil lamp.

The light source, the enemy hidden in the darkness, will first destroy the victim's light source.

Then what happened?

Lin Yi bent down and looked at the clear dragging marks on the floor under the big kitchen table.

The victim, who had lost an arm, lurched forward and struck the large kitchen table, which he moved once or twice, and then rolled to the floor.

The sticky dark red bloodstains stained the ground, and it seemed as if it was howling to Lin Yi about the scene at that time.

"He tried to escape, he grabbed the carpet with his right hand and crawled forward."

Muttering to himself, Lin Yi's fingers gently touched the carpet under the table, touching a small area on the carpet that was stained with blood and had obvious signs of being torn.

He crawled on the ground for three meters...or five meters, maybe even longer.

Due to the severe pain and blood loss, coupled with the darkness caused by the disappearance of light sources, the victim actually did not know how far he had crawled. He just wanted to get as far away as possible from the thing in the dark that attacked him, so he instinctively moved as hard as he could.

And in this process...

crunch--

Lin Yi jumped suddenly and stood at one side of the room, in a clean corner without any blood splatter.

"Then, I stood here, watching that man crawling on the ground, crying and howling. I just stood there motionless, watching him struggling there."

A cold voice came out of Lin Yi's mouth the next moment.

The unknown enemy who launched the sudden attack did not rush to attack again after completing his first round of attack. Instead, he watched the victim fall to the ground and struggle.

What is the other party's mentality as he watches all this?

joy?

excited?

hapiness?

Lin Yi took another step forward and stepped on a noticeably lighter mark in the blood.

"He's about 3 meters tall, and his weight and body shape... No, not a normal weight and body shape, 40 kilograms? 45 kilograms? Otherwise, there's no reason why he would only leave such a shallow mark."

Lifting his foot and looking at the bloodstains on the ground, Lin Yi whispered to himself again.

Then, look further ahead.

After the victim who had lost his arm crawled to the cupboard, he reached the end.

What happened then?

Lin Yi's gaze rested on a shallow scratch on the wooden floor.

Reach out and tap the scratch lightly.

From the feedback sound and the vibration of the wooden board, Lin Yi knew that this seemingly insignificant scratch actually cut directly through an entire thick layer of flooring.

"That is to say, he wants to stand up."

The victim tried to stand up from the ground.

Then, his legs were cut open, just like this cut open floor.

He rolled to the ground again, losing both legs and only having one hand left.

More blood flowed out, but he was not dead yet, not yet dead. He was still alive, still conscious, still struggling, but just still struggling, a piece of flesh with only one hand left struggling on the ground.

"And here I was, pinning him to the ground, and putting...my claws? Putting my claws in his belly and churning it around, like a blender with fruit?"

Squatting in a mess of blood, Lin Yi stretched out his fingers and shook them gently in the air as if stirring coffee. His expression seemed extremely serious at this moment.

The victim screamed in pain.

So I dug out his tongue and pulled it out of his mouth along with his entire throat.

The victim's eyes widened in pain.

So I smashed half his head in and popped both of his eyes.

But why did I cut open his chest and take his heart? Why did I bite his remaining hand until it was torn into pieces?

Lin Yi's expression became a little confused.

Slowly, stand up again.

Lin Yi's eyes once again swept across the kitchen, which had been tidied up a little but was still messy.

The police officers in this rural area had not received any on-the-job training, and had no professional knowledge. They were essentially local residents. So they did not know what it meant to protect the scene, so they sealed off the area and did nothing.

So, there should be some things left here.

crunch--

The old wooden floor screamed once again.

Lin Yi had already moved to the front of the stove and stood in front of a large rusty iron pot.

Gently lift the lid of the pot.

Lin Yi looked into the pot and saw something bloody and bitten to pieces.

Mixed together were teeth, internal organs, flesh and blood, and some dirt.

"Did you add some cooking wine? He's a guy who likes to enjoy himself."

Lin Yi got close to the pile of things and smelled them carefully, and subconsciously sighed softly.

In this case, it seems that the restoration is successful, right?

However, I always feel that it is a little bit not enough.

Is there anything missing?

Come to think of it, Martin got up at night to go to the bathroom, and then he was attracted to the kitchen by some noise, killed, and made into a delicious meal for Lao Ba.

The thing that did it was very patient, sentimental, and of course had a bad taste. Anyway, he... or it, after all, it was not certain what species it was, anyway, that thing stayed in this kitchen for a very long time.

Is there anything else happening during this long enough period of time?

Thinking this way, Lin Yi once again looked at the pile of bloody things in the country.

"Mr. Lin Yi, have you found any valuable clues?"

The kitchen door was opened again.

Rest, with a big belly, appeared outside the door, covering his nose.

"It's more or less a reflection of my experience."

Lin Yi said this, reached out and picked up the pot lid, covered the iron pot filled with blood, and turned to walk towards the door.

It was as if he didn't notice that Sheriff Rest, who was obviously extremely fat, appeared silently at the door and just walked past him calmly.

Chapter 14: Hey~ Tanjiro?

"Hmm... I guess I didn't go to the wrong place, did I?"

Looking at the hunter's hut in front of him, which was very dirty yesterday, Lin Yi raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but complain.

"Okay, so awesome!"

Lily of the valley beside her couldn't help but exclaim.

The clean floor, with the water droplets that have not yet dried up, still seem to be emitting light.

All the sundries on the ground have been neatly picked up and put into categories. The clothes that were thrown everywhere are hung neatly on the racks, the scattered tables and chairs are all arranged neatly, and even the spider webs on the wall are no longer visible.

"Ah, Mr. Lin Yi, Miss Linglan, you are back. Please wait a moment. I will sweep the dust off the door first."

Tanjiro Kamado, who was smiling brightly and cheerfully at the moment, was saying this while sweeping the dust and spider webs in the corner of the ceiling with a broom.

Wipe every speck of dust off the floor.

Clean the cabinets and wipe the dust off the tables, chairs and other furniture.

The windows that were originally a little dirty were also wiped clean.

Even the old dirt of unknown origin on the handle of the shotgun hanging on the wall was scraped off.

Although it was still gloomy due to the heavy rain, the whole house seemed to have become several times brighter, giving me a wonderful feeling of being completely refreshed.

"Brother Tanjiro is so awesome!"

Lillian, who was doing housework with Tanjiro, jumped out excitedly and shouted happily.

As for Old Bob, the old man was sitting quietly at one side of the house, and for some reason he seemed a little uneasy. How should I describe this feeling? This was obviously his home, but now he felt like a guest, extremely uncomfortable.

Why did it become like this? It's really strange.

Soon, Lin Yi got the answer.

"Mr. Bob, the ceiling has been cleaned. Do you think there is anything else that needs cleaning?"

Tanjiro, with a sunny and innocent smile, wiped the sweat from his forehead, then stood happily in front of Old Bob and asked in a lively manner.

"...Oh...oh, that...uh...it's all gone, the house...is pretty clean now..."

Old Bob, who was almost unable to speak, opened and closed his mouth for a long time, and finally said only this.

"Oh, by the way, there is one corner in the kitchen that I haven't checked yet. So, Mr. Bob, I'll go clean up the kitchen again."

But even so, Tanjiro himself immediately thought of his own shortcomings and acted without hesitation.

"Brother Tanjiro, I'm here to help too!"

Lillian waved her hands excitedly and followed.

"Then I'll come and help too."

Lily of the Valley, who probably understood the situation, nodded slightly and followed.

As for Lin Yi, he closed the door after entering the house. He first admired the neat and clean condition of the house in his heart, and then walked to old Bob, pulled out a chair and sat down.

"Tanjiro...did he start cleaning after he came back?"

Lin Yi looked at the old man with some curiosity and asked.

"Uh...he asked me if I would mind helping to clean up, and I thought..."

Old Bob looked a little depressed.
