Chapter 51 Clues on the Corpse

The rain soaked the whole body in just a few minutes. Donald stroked his hair back and for a while, not taking care of his hair and ears, thus accumulating a lot of water droplets.

"I'm sorry, I couldn't help."

As a stranger who has developed some mental power, so far, he has only had a useless mental impact, and Donald is also helpless.

Of course, even if there were other means, he could not use it in front of Sherlock just now.

"You have performed very well, at least you can still follow the command. If you are a person with less determination, you can't survive just now... If you really want to talk about it, I have not done anything."

This is not a comfort. In the face of terrifying monsters, ordinary people can really not blame anything if they can do this.

If Donald really starts to kill the monster, that would be horrifying.

"The two are not injured, are they? The monster ran away?"

Gorren, panting, ran from the rain, covered with a waterproof leather cloak, and was holding a double-tube hunting rifle and a kerosene lamp. It was him just now.

"Where did you find the monster?"

Even though she was already soaked, Sherlock still held up an umbrella.

"It's just in the livestock shed there. Today is my vigil. This monster hasn't been here for several days... Damn, it's raining today, and all the cattle and sheep have obviously rushed into the shed. I don't know who was negligent, but let the monster touch it and harm several cattle and sheep."

Goron had no fear of the monster on his face. He had a well-maintained double-bar hunting rifle. He just relied on it to bombard the monster directly.

"You are the only one who vigils?"

"Of course not. How can I do this alone in such a big farm? There are two more people. They are watching cattle and sheep from behind. Maybe they can save one or two of them."

"Take us to see what's going on."

This time the monster did not drag the prey away like before, probably because of the timely discovery by Goron and others, and the number of kills was large.

The cattle and sheep on the farm are divided into several shanty towns and are closed in the shanty towns.

By the time they arrived, there were already many people gathered here, and Ziel Barthley was there. Seeing Donald and Sherlock’s two roosters, they came up to take care of them.

"Mr. Swift, have you seen the monsters? I heard from Goron that you have a close fight with the monsters."

"Just a quick glance, the surrounding environment is so dark, it looks like an enlarged version of a wild wolf. I think it is very likely to be a beast in the mountains and forests... I don't know what I ate and grow so big. I must take a look at it in detail next time."

Obviously, Sherlock concealed the truth of the matter. The monster is indeed somewhat similar to the wolf, but its characteristics are not here, but a light red piece of meat. Just this alone proves that it is definitely not an ordinary creature.

"Yes, I saw it, too. Its eyes emitted green light and its tail was very powerful. It made a dull sound on the umbrella in my hand. It was really a beast."

Assistant, he should be like an assistant. As the payer, even if Sherlock rushed over, he had to find a way to follow him.

For example, its two front teeth are flashing with a cold light, and its pink fluffy tail is very "lethal" at a glance...

After the two said this, Ziel Barlett stayed here for a while before returning to the main house. As a gentleman of a certain status, it was unreasonable to stand outside the livestock with so many people in pajamas.

When the boss left, he followed some servants who came to him back. Who would have thought of staying in the shanty town filled with the fishy smell of livestock to see the bodies in the middle of the night?

In the end, the only ones left were Donald and Sherlock, and there were only three patrol members.

"A total of three were bitten, and none of them were rescued. They were all dead. Each one had a bite on the neck and didn't eat it... What a bastard."

Gordo wiped the shotgun with a rag, and from time to time he looked at the two people squatting next to the corpse.

There was a lamb lying on the ground in front of me. Donald couldn't see it for a few months. The wool at the neck was stained with blood. There were not many scratches on the torso. The wound was concentrated on the neck, which was fatal.

Use the tip of the umbrella to clear the wool and find the exact location of the wound. A row of blood holes appeared in the center of the neck. It may be that the monster's fangs were too sharp and narrow, and the wound even had holes pierced.

"Can you see something?"

Donald is not a veterinarian, and he can't tell the murderer who killed the lamb by looking at a wound. What's more, when he met the wound left by the monster just now, even if the old veterinarian came, he would probably not be able to tell it.

It's not written in the book, it's beyond the outline.

"Look, cut the artery on its neck with a knife and there was no blood flowing out, do you know what that means?"

The blade pierced into the flesh, and no blood flowed out. The lamb died until now, but it has not been long since, and the blood has not solidified.

"Meaning that the previous flow was clean?"

"Wrong, it means that the monster is not here to eat meat, it is here to suck blood! The blood-colored skin, exposed fangs, hairless all over. If I remember correctly, it should be...not supposed to be. How could this kind of creature appear in such a place? Let's go, there is nothing good to look at. Go back and take a shower first, it will be sticky and uncomfortable."

Sherlock talked to himself, as if he had already obtained the message he wanted from the corpse, and got up and prepared to leave. Although Donald wanted to know what Sherlock had discovered, he also understood that if the other party did not intend to tell him, then it would be useless to ask.

These corpses Goron plans to deal with them tomorrow morning. It rains heavily outside and the temperature is not high. The corpses will not rot and smelly for one night. If they are peeled and washed tomorrow, they may be able to add a meal.

"Donald, let's go to the town near Raffindo Farm tomorrow, where Miss Audrey used to go."

“Is there anything to investigate?”

You can't go to the town for no reason.

"What happened today reminded me of a piece I had read in the book before. Tomorrow I will go to the town to verify and prepare some special weapons to deal with that monster."

"Will special weapons be sold in small towns in the countryside? Shouldn't we call the police? After all, that's no longer an ordinary creature."

"No, you can't call the police. Why do you think I was cheating on Ziel Barthre just now? Monsters like this are rare materials and can get a lot of good things in the underground market."
