Lord Of Enigma 45 Moses University

After all, when the early morning came, it would be the eighth day, and another person would be dead.

The police car whistled as it left the downtown area. It was also a coincidence that the next two days were the rest days of Thorns High, and Tang Qi was free to deal with the murder case in Moses University. If it was not resolved within two days, he could only ask to take leave.

The location of Moses the small town happened to be a suburban area on the other side of the city. There was a mountain shaped like a goat's horn over there, and the town was located at the foot of that mountain.

Unlike the industrial and bustling atmosphere of Moses City's downtown, Moses the small town was simply mesmerizing.

In fact, once out of the downtown area and on the way to the small town, the scenery had already begun to show a sharp contrast. Even Tang Qi couldn't help but put down the hair knot in his hand as he looked out the window from time to time to admire the primitive and natural scenery.

However, Stana was not in such a mood.

While driving the car hurriedly, she began to introduce the case without asking Tang Qi if he wanted to hear it.

"Seven days ago, the first deceased person appeared in Moses University, an old cleaner. He looked as if he was soaked in some kind of extremely corrosive liquid. His clothes and skin were all corroded, and so was more than half of his body. There were even several large holes in his hard skull.

"After it was reported, the police in the town thought it was an accident, and they didn't place a lot of attention on it. They just investigated whether there was a dangerous liquid leak in the chemical building in the university.

"Later, on the second and third day, another gardener and guard died in the exact same way. The police station was then notified.

"My colleagues in the police station went to investigate and issued a warning that day, asking everyone in the campus to stay together. Patrols were organized at night, but unfortunately, another student died.

"Next, another student and a trainee teacher died.

"I was there on the day the teacher died. I also partic.i.p.ated in the investigation and patrols. But an honorary professor still died under our eyes.

"This is very abnormal. This terrible way of killing is definitely not something that ordinary serial killers can do. That kind of aura and smell are definitely not human, at least not an ordinary human."

…

Stana didn't have the appearance of a cold and indifferent sister this time and spoke quickly to provide a rough outline of the case.

At the same time, she felt that her persuasion was not enough. While holding the steering wheel in one hand to negotiate a sharp bend, her other hand reached down for a doc.u.ment file and handed that to Tang Qi.

Fortunately, Tang Qi was not susceptible to car sickness. Otherwise, with Stana's driving, he would have thrown up a long time ago.

After taking the file, he opened it and pulled out a stack of materials. The first thing he saw was a large stack of photos of the murder scenes.

This…!

Just the first photo made Tang Qi's pupils shrink slightly.

What appeared in his eyes seemed to be a secluded gra.s.sy area, and under a lush tree laid a horrifying corpse.

It was an old man with gray hair, wearing a cleaner's hardy attire. However, the corpse was badly corroded, and most of the flesh on the body had been dissolved. The yellowish-white color after the fat had melted looked especially disgusting.

In his corroded chest cavity, most of his organs had become liquid. More than half of his ribs had also been melted. The remaining few pieces of bones were all filled with spots and tiny holes. The most amazing thing was his skull. Half of it had disappeared, completely exposing the murky brain substance inside.

A normal person, upon seeing this scene, would be on the verge of puking.

To some extent, the scene of this case was more terrifying than the previous sea monster skinning case.

The subsequent dozen photos were similar as well.

The difference was that the crime scenes and victims were different.

However, if it was just these, it would be impossible to prove that these murderous crimes had been committed by supernatural beings or monsters.

After all, as long as people were proficient in chemistry or possessed dangerous liquids such as sulfuric acid, with careful preparation, they would be able to achieve what was inside the photos.

Tang Qi was not at the scene; hence, he could not feel the kind of aura Stana mentioned.

But when Tang Qi turned to a certain picture, his head subtly nodded in agreement with Stana's deduction. There were indeed traces of supernaturalness.

The scene in the photo in his hand was the last victim, a very old honorary professor. He died in his office, and it was a messy horror scene. In an inconspicuous corner, there was a flower pot with very strange-looking withered plants.

…

Relying on Stana's terrifying car skills, the two arrived at Moses the small town at dawn. Tang Qi was immediately brought to the university by Stana without having the opportunity to appreciate this cultural town.

"Aren't we going to see the police commissioner first? After all, he is my boss. I will have to pay him a visit first, right?" Faced with Stana's request to go directly to the scene of the investigation, Tang Qi patted his bag, which contained the newly signed fake contract.

However, this sisterly sergeant was not an ordinary person. She said without changing her expression, "The visit can wait. It is important to solve the case first. If we catch the murderer early, we could maybe save an innocent life."

"Okay then, let's head straight there!"

Tang Qi was just teasing the female sergeant. Seeing that Stana had changed the subject, he raised the picture in his hand.

The place where he pointed was the office of the honorary professor.

"The professor's name is Rick Ka.s.sel. He is not only an emeritus honorary professor at Moses University but also a well-known historian at Exquisite Phoenix Prefecture University. He is also somewhat famous in the Federation. His death has caused the case to spin out of control.

"If this case cannot be resolved, the fallout will be very bad, and the Moses police force will bear the brunt of it.

"The on-site forensic team has checked carefully. There are no other footprints or fingerprints. It's as clean as if the offender was not human, but similar to the monster earlier. Together with that aura that made me sick, I am sure this was done by those ghostly things."

"Those two bullets, do you still have them?" Stanna was talking halfway when Tang Qi suddenly turned and asked.

The two were now standing outside the door of that office.

"Ah~yes, yes."

The female sergeant subconsciously reached into her arms and seemed to have taken out two glistening yellow bullets from her inner s.h.i.+rt. She then handed them over to Tang Qi.

As the bullets entered his palm, a warm feeling rose.

He did not know whether it was the warmth from the power of the furnace or from Stana.

This body was still a teenager!

After muttering a few words, Tang Qi silently ignored the thoughts on the possible sources of warmth and began to feel the changes in the two furnace bullets.

The power of the furnace had decreased a little.

It was only a few days after Tang Qi gave Stana the bullets, and the power of the furnace could not decay so fast. There was only one possibility. This female sergeant had brief contact with the monsters from the negative and evil camp or, at the least, stayed in the same environment.

With a bit of insight in his heart, Tang Qi handed the bullets back to Stana, who kept away her cherished treasure.

The corner of Tang Qi's mouth twitched slightly, but he still turned and pushed open the office door in front of him. Just as he took a step in, Tang Qi immediately froze. He shouted: "Who are you?"

After talking, Tang Qi immediately exited the office and hid behind Stana unashamedly.

His movement was quick and smooth, done at one go.
