Chapter 555 Mental Hospital

At the local police station, Duan Muhuai found some clues, although at first, the sheriff didn't like their visit. But after learning that they were invited by Earl Best, they were relieved.

According to the police, this must have been done by some gangster.

The reason why they have this judgment comes from solid evidence.

According to the autopsy records of the police, the people who were killed before were all bitten to death by some kind of living creature. The photo in the magazine was purely accidental. It was just one of the wounds. In fact, the perpetrators didn't just bite their necks, but bit their whole bodies, as if they were killed by some wild beasts.

Although the autopsy record did show that he died from excessive blood loss, this was completely different from the vampires rumored in the world—no matter who had so many wounds on his body, he would die from blood loss.

As for the cemetery, it was indeed dug, but all traces showed that someone dug the tomb from the outside. If it was really a vampire, it must not be from the outside, but from the inside.

To put it bluntly, those magazines are headline parties, deliberately taking out of context.

The reason why the police judged that it was done by gangsters is not completely unfounded. Because those corpses... are not locals at all, and they are not foreigners either. According to the results of their investigation, these people are all foreigners, and all of them are refugees who entered the country illegally!

Therefore, the police determined that this should be done by an organization related to human trafficking, or maybe they had internal conflicts, maybe some conflicts with these refugees, and then killed the other party in an attempt to destroy the body.

Of course, there are contradictions in this. For example, if it is human trafficking, why use this method to kill people? It would be better to just line up and shoot them. According to the police, this was to make other refugees obey, and the victim was probably killed alive by a vicious dog raised by a criminal group—this can also be used to explain the strange tooth marks on the victim.

Therefore, they are now investigating the nearby gangsters to investigate whether there are any clues about human trafficking—so in the eyes of the police, this is just a simple murder case of a bad nature, but it must be related to legends such as vampires. It doesn't matter.

"In short, please tell Earl Best, our police will definitely find the criminal and bring him to justice!"

After saying this, the sheriff invited Duan Muhuai and others out of the police station.

“……………………”

Holding the notebook in her hand, Mary looked at Duanmuhuai in a daze.

"Mr. Duanmu, what should we do next?"

"The police's investigation is their business, but they also said that they can do whatever they want as long as they don't interfere with their investigation, um...you remember where these bodies were found."

"Ah, yes."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's inquiry, Mary nodded, and then opened the notebook.

"It was in a renovated mansion in Vinat Bay which, according to the police, was originally an abandoned mansion until a gentleman named Vince Scott bought it with the intention of completely renovating it and then During the process, it was found that workers disappeared one after another, and then the bodies were discovered..."

Having said this, Mary frowned.

"Moreover, the bodies that were found were completely unrelated to the missing workers, and they were all men. According to the autopsy report, the time of death should have been a few weeks ago."

"So the police are currently investigating in the direction of human trafficking and gang transactions. They want to find the missing workers, but unfortunately they don't get anything...Where is Vince Scott?"

"That gentleman seems to have been stimulated by some kind of shock. He is currently recuperating in a state mental sanatorium. The police have also tried to find him for investigation, but... it seems that there is no gain."

"Heh, the mental hospital is another familiar place."

Duanmuhuai snorted coldly.

"Eh? Familiar?"

"That's right, mortals who face monsters will do this, because they perceive the existence that they cannot understand, lead to a mental breakdown, and then become a lunatic, and everything he said will naturally be regarded as crazy by ordinary people, and then directly Sent to a mental hospital. You have to tell others about your experience, and it is estimated that your end will be the same as theirs—so if you want to find clues, the mental hospital is really a good place."

"Well……………"

Hearing this, Mary turned pale.

"Do I have to go? I'm a little scared..."

"It's up to you. Didn't you say you wanted to record the investigation and then write it into a novel?"

"…………………I go!"

For her dream, Mary also worked hard.

Although a decision has been made, Mary still couldn't hold back her inner doubts on the way to the mental hospital.

"Mr. Duanmu, you said that human beings will go crazy when they see those things... But we have seen a lot of similar things, why don't I think it's dangerous??? And you and Miss Lorena, Seems normal too?"

Looking at Duanmuhuai, Mary asked the question in her heart suspiciously. It's not that she is not afraid of those monsters, whether it is Shoggoth, Baskerville's magic dog, or the incarnation of Glaaki that Mary personally killed before. It was disgusting enough to say it was disgusting, and it was terrible enough to say it was terrible, and Mary trembled in front of them.

But for Mary, it seems to be just like this. It’s like going to a haunted house or watching a horror movie. At that time, she was scared out of fear, but after sleeping, she was not so scared.

So it's hard for Mary to understand why ordinary people go crazy when they see those monsters.

"It's not difficult to understand. You should already know that Lorena and I come from different worlds. In our world, similar monsters are common. As a judge, I will execute not one thousand but eight hundred subspace creatures. And as a pilgrim priest, Lorena encountered many demons and monsters."

Having said this, Duanmu Huai spread his hands.

"So for us, the disgusting monsters here are disgusting, but for us, it's nothing special. It's just a strange disgusting monster if you die."

"Um……………"

"But people in this world are different. They didn't grow up watching monsters, and they never thought monsters existed. Therefore, when they witness the existence of these monsters, their entire worldview will collapse...you can Imagine, it’s like taking things for granted in daily life, and suddenly discovering that it’s not like this, how terrifying it will be at that time.”

"Uh...sorry, I can't seem to understand."

"Let's put it this way."

Duanmu Huai snapped his fingers.

"If you found out that the human beings you saw were not what you saw, how would you react?"

".........???"

"It's very simple, assuming that what you see now is an illusion, the patterns captured by your eyes are not real images. In fact, including me, Lorena, and your good friends, our real The body looks like a wriggling piece of flesh, with blood vessels swaying like snakes outside, and eyes covered with membranes all over the body. Suppose one day, you suddenly see that all human beings have become like this, you What will be the reaction?"

"Woo..."

Hearing this, Mary turned pale.

"This... this is really scary..."

"And these people are also like this. They have come into close contact with things that should not exist in this world, and because of this, their senses of this world begin to move towards those things... In simple terms, you can imagine that you have What would it be like to perceive the world one day with the antennae of an ant or the eyes of a bee?"

"Woo...... Please don't say any more, I'm not feeling well......"

Just thinking about it, Mary's face was livid and wobbly at this moment.

"That's it. Those people just went crazy because they couldn't bear such a blow."

"But I don't seem to be like that?"

"Thank you for your golden pupil, because of it, your spirit will always be stable. As you said, horror is terror, just sleep on it... You will know later that there is no golden pupil What will ordinary people look like when they see those monsters."

While speaking, the group also came to the mental hospital outside the city. The place looked extremely gloomy, and the surrounding windows were completely sealed by railings. Walking in it, the patients wearing hospital gowns were also weak, and the nurses looked as lifeless as walking dead. Of course, these are not the key points. Duan Muhuai found Dr. Berg, the dean of the mental hospital, revealed his identity, and hoped to meet Vince Scott.

"no."

The Mediterranean doctor wearing glasses straightforwardly rejected Duanmuhuai's request.

"The patient is very agitated, and he has been detained in a ward specially used to accommodate patients with extreme violent tendencies. He cannot be agitated at all, especially..."

As he spoke, Hai Hai looked Duan Muhuai up and down and narrowed his eyes.

"Especially someone as dangerous as you who can traumatize other people."

“…………………………”

Even if it's true, Duanmuhuai wants to do something now, is there anyone who talks like that?

Although it is true......

So Duanmuhuai started directly.

He stretched out his hand, crossed the desk, grabbed Doctor Mediterranean by the neck, and lifted him up.

"You, what do you want to do?"

Hai Hai was also pale at the moment, struggling desperately to open his mouth and trying to shout, but Duanmu Huai just exerted a little force with his right hand, and his screams were instantly rendered invisible.

"Like you said, I'm not easy to deal with, Dr. Berg."

Duanmuhuai looked into Mediterranean's eyes coldly, exuding a trace of killing intent, and then spoke.

"If you're not willing to agree to my request, then I'll have to do whatever it takes to cause you a little trauma."

"Wait, wait a minute, if you do this, I will call the police......"

"This is a mental hospital. Maybe the doctor is also a mental patient. Can you believe what a mental patient says?"

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai clenched his right hand tightly again.

"Or, would you rather be a corpse than be detained as a mental patient?"

"Woo...uh...uh..."

"I only give you one chance to take us to meet him, YES or NO?"

“……………………”

At this moment, Mediterranean's face was ashen, unable to speak, he could only nod his head vigorously—after all, his own life was more important.

Great, great deterrence success.

Duanmu Huai nodded in satisfaction, then let go of his hand, and then the Mediterranean Sea fell heavily on the ground. And Duanmuhuai looked down at him like this, and said lightly.

"Okay, let's lead the way."
