Dice In The Darkness: Cthulhu Calls
However, Liu Xing suddenly thought of a question, which is why the Cult of the Cadaver did not continue to manufacture these semi-Ghoul Cult of the Cadaver followers in the past or in the future?
You should know that when we went to EinsCastle in the future to destroy the replica of the Corrupted Wooden Carving, those Cult of the Cadaver followers were still using guns to fight back, instead of turning into Ghouls one by one to trouble us.
Could it be that the Ghouls also encountered some technical bottlenecks, making it impossible to mass-produce these semi-Ghoul Cult of the Cadaver followers?
This is very interesting.
As Liu Xing was thinking, he arrived at the place where Elsa’s boyfriend was killed.
It might be that Ithaqua’s subordinates found it troublesome, or it might also be that Miss Wang’s subordinates wanted the police officer to easily find Elsa’s boyfriend’s body and car, so Elsa’s boyfriend’s car was in the small forest next to the item, with more than half of the car body exposed without any cover, and Elsa’s boyfriend’s body was lying on the front of the car, with a very obvious gunshot wound on the back of his head.
After Sergei arrived at the scene, he immediately went into work mode, so Wesker took Liu Xing and the others to find the police officer in charge who had arrived at the scene earlier to understand the situation.
Before coming, Sergei had also introduced his good friend Rex to Liu Xing and the others.
Rex is Sergei’s neighbor, and the relationship between the two families has always been very good. However, since Rex is five years older than Sergei, Rex has always played the role of Sergei’s older brother, and he has helped Sergei fight countless battles since they were young, so Sergei has always treated Rex as his own older brother... until Rex confessed to Elsa, who was just starting middle school, before graduating from high school and going to the Police Academy.
That’s right, Rex had confessed to Elsa before, so when he heard that Elsa had a boyfriend, Sergei’s first thought was to ask Rex for help, and Rex did not let Sergei down, he went to investigate Elsa’s boyfriend’s situation in detail without hesitation. However, if it were not for Sergei’s repeated obstruction, Rex might have already arrested Elsa’s boyfriend and put him in the detention center on charges of drug abuse or mafia involvement a few days ago.
Of course, the reason why Sergei stopped Rex from doing so was that Sergei wanted to cast a long line to catch a big fish, and directly send Elsa’s boyfriend to prison.
However, Liu Xing could see that Sergei was still quite unwilling to cooperate with Rex, after all, as a sister-complex Sergei, he still felt that Rex, who had once harbored evil intentions towards his sister, had no good intentions.
"I wanted to see you as my brother, but you actually wanted to be my brother-in-law?"
Liu Xing had already guessed Sergei’s thoughts at the time.
And when Liu Xing saw Rex, he finally knew what a "macho man" was - about 2 meters tall, a sturdy build, and a resolute face, Liu Xing felt that Rex could directly play the male lead in some war movies.
Liu Xing even suspected that this Rex might be a character card of a certain player.
Since both of Rex’s parents are police officers, and Sergei’s father used to work as a forensic scientist part-time, and Rex is naturally averse to evil, he was naturally sent to the Police Academy by his parents. Although his grades at the Police Academy were not very good, he had intervened and helped the police catch many criminals during his school days, so his career has been smooth sailing after graduating and joining the police force, and he has now become the deputy chief of a police station in the suburbs of London.
Most importantly, since the current chief of this police station has been seriously ill for half a year, Rex has already become the actual chief of the police station, and as long as he performs another meritorious service, he can be directly promoted.
So Liu Xing felt that this Rex was an NPC worth befriending, and if everything goes well, Rex should provide a lot of help to Liu Xing and the others in the "Sacred Book" projection battle in about half a month.
Because Sergei had told Rex that Liu Xing and the others were his good friends, and they had also helped persuade Elsa to go home, Rex was very good to Liu Xing and the others. Not only did he have someone prepare coffee in advance, but he also told Liu Xing and the others all the results of his investigation without reservation.
At 8 o’clock this morning, the police station where Rex was stationed received a call ing that an abandoned car and a body had been found here, and the caller then hung up the phone immediately.
At first, Rex thought it was a prank call, because usually the caller would tell the police all the information they know, and then hang up the phone after hearing the police’s response.
And for cases where the caller just says all the ing information and then hangs up the phone, Rex has encountered a few, and all of them were false alarms.
However, Rex still set out with his subordinates, because Rex had once heard his teacher say that some murderers, for the sake of a certain perverted sense of achievement, would choose to tell the police about the crimes they had committed, and these murderers, in order to avoid exposing more flaws to the police, would disguise themselves as the first witnesses to the case, but they would definitely not show up in person.
When Rex led his team to the crime scene, he was sure that the caller was very likely the murderer, because the caller had disappeared without a trace.
Then, according to Rex’s preliminary investigation, he determined that this was not the primary crime scene, because there was a long drag mark on the ground, and there was no brain tissue of Elsa’s boyfriend found nearby, you know that if he was shot at close range, the brain tissue would definitely have been scattered around with the bullet.
So Rex was sure that Elsa’s boyfriend’s body had been dragged to this place by the murderer, so he sent people to follow the drag marks to look for clues, and about 100 meters away, they found a wallet, the only valuable clue in which was a shopping receipt.
This shopping receipt was from a supermarket in Leicester, proving that the wallet owner had bought a lot of food and beer there.
Rex has already ed this clue to the London Police Department, and the London Police Department has also notified the Leicester Police Department to conduct related investigations.
In addition to the shopping receipt, Rex’s subordinates also found several small glass bottles at the end of the drag marks, about 200 meters away from here, and these small glass bottles seemed to be used to store some kind of injection, because several disposable syringes were found nearby.
This is another important reason why Rex called Sergei.
In addition, Rex also found that Elsa’s boyfriend’s belongings on his body and in the car had not been taken away, so Rex ruled out the possibility of a robbery murder, and temporarily determined it as a revenge killing.
After listening to Rex’s narration, Liu Xing was sure that his previous guess was correct, and the person who made the call was indeed one of Miss Wang’s subordinates.
However, Liu Xing felt strange that Elsa’s boyfriend was killed, and then why was he dumped back here?
Logically speaking, even if Ithaqua wanted to clean up this batch of "disposable subordinates", he could have handled it more perfectly, such as making Elsa’s boyfriend simply "missing", so that the police could never find him... or his body.
The current situation is that in order to deal with the body of Elsa’s boyfriend, Ithaqua’s subordinates have left behind a lot of clues, and these clues are likely to put Ithaqua in an unfavorable position.
For example, the shopping receipt can make Liu Xing believe that the possibility of Dio being held near the city of Leicester is very high; as for the glass bottles and disposable syringes, if there is no unexpected incident, Sergei should be able to extract the residual liquid from them, and this liquid is very likely to be an unknown toxin, so the police will handle this case together with the previous attack case.
Of course, it is also possible that this is Ithaqua’s decoy tactic, trying to lead Miss Wang and the police astray.
However, Liu Xing is more willing to believe that this is the work of the Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall.
Because now the module has entered the middle and late stages, as the antagonist boss, Ithaqua must reveal some flaws, otherwise there will be no fun for Liu Xing as the player.
So Liu Xing believes that the Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall has already started to weaken Ithaqua’s racial skills, causing Ithaqua to make mistakes in predicting the future, or even unable to make predictions; then it is to make Ithaqua lose complete control over his subordinates, so Ithaqua’s subordinates made so many mistakes in handling Elsa’s boyfriend’s body.
In short, Ithaqua’s strength is definitely not as strong as before.
Thinking about this, Liu Xing’s hope was rekindled.
So, Liu Xing pretended to check the time on his mobile phone and sent a text message to Miss Wang, which was a very simple three-word message - Leicester.
Liu Xing believes that Miss Wang will surely understand his meaning.
At this moment, Sergei came over and said, "According to my preliminary examination, the deceased should have died last night, but his cause of death may not be gunshot, but more likely poisoning or some acute illness, because I noticed that the deceased had a distorted face, as if he had suffered great pain before death, and there were no other injuries on his body except the gunshot wound to the head, but this still needs to be confirmed by my autopsy."
"Then why did the killer still give the deceased an extra shot? Is it to cover up the real cause of death? But this is not necessary, if the killer really wants to cover up the real cause of death, he can completely handle the body through means such as burning, so what is the killer trying to do?" Rex said with some confusion.
Wesker and the others also nodded in agreement, indicating that their thoughts were the same as Rex’s.
To be honest, if Liu Xing didn’t already know the truth of all this, he might be more confused than Rex and the others right now.
Sergei shrugged and said, "I don’t know either, but that’s the fact. Oh, by the way, I also took those glass bottles and disposable syringes with me. If there’s no accident, there might still be some residue inside, so I’ll leave first."
As soon as Sergei finished speaking, his phone rang.
Sergei took out the phone and frowned, saying, "How could this be?"
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and quickly asked, "Sergei, what’s wrong?"
Sergei shook his head and said somewhat helplessly, "Didn’t some of the Locke Manor staff also get killed in that attack case? So yesterday, after a batch of bodies were claimed by their families, there are still three unclaimed bodies. After examination and finding nothing unusual, I called my acquaintance at the Funeral Home to pick up the bodies and keep them there until the families claim them."
"Just now, my friend went to the police station to pick up those bodies, but the car was stopped by a group of armed thugs just before reaching the Funeral Home, and they took away all three bodies. Although the armed thugs covered the lower half of their faces with scarves, my friend could still recognize from their eyebrows and eyes that they were Asian, so I suspect that the people who robbed the bodies are related to the attack case, but I can’t figure out why they would rob these bodies. Could it be that these bodies are their inside men?"
What is this operation?
Liu Xing frowned, unable to understand why Ithaqua’s subordinates would do this. Could it be that those three bodies have some strange properties?
At this time, the KP Time smiled and said, "Now, Liu Xing, do you want to make an inspirationJudgment?"
Liu Xing unhesitatingly chose to make an inspirationJudgment, because he couldn’t understand at all why Ithaqua would do this. Could it be that those three bodies were actually Ithaqua’s moles planted within the Cult of the Cadaver? Or do those three bodies have other special properties?
Liu Xing, 38/50, success.
After Liu Xing’s inspirationJudgment was successful, three words suddenly appeared in his mind - Cult of the Cadaver!
Cult of the Cadaver? How could the body snatchers be the Cult of the Cadaver?!
Wait.
Liu Xing had a flash of insight and suddenly understood why the Cult of the Cadaver would rob those three bodies.
The reason is simple, that is, the Cult of the Cadaver wants to add fuel to the fire and frame Miss Wang again.
Given the current situation, the various factions vying for the projection of the "Sacred Book" should already know of each other’s existence, so the Cult of the Cadaver knows that while Ithaqua is targeting them, they have also pinned the blame on Miss Wang.
So now, although the Cult of the Cadaver cannot retaliate against Ithaqua yet, they can also take the opportunity to dig a pit for Miss Wang, after all, Miss Wang is also their enemy.
So, the enlightened Cult of the Cadaver found a group of Asians and had them rob those bodies, so that the police would naturally think that the group of body snatchers were the same ones from the attack case.
What a mysterious operation?
