Chapter 1260 Grilled Fish in the Stove
The sudden scream made Qin Ran change his original plan of checking the surroundings, and he went straight to the location where the scream came from.
When Kieran arrived at the place where the scream occurred, the afterglow of the sunset had completely dissipated, but this did not prevent the dazzling scarlet color from being reflected in Kieran's eyes.
The woman who screamed was dead.
The other person's face still retained the fear of being suddenly attacked during his lifetime.
The opponent's body was in complete disarray, with most of his internal organs devoured, as well as the flesh and blood on his limbs and torso.
The opponent's two thigh bones were broken into several pieces.
Kieran could completely imagine how a bloody mouth chewed the opponent's flesh and blood.
Except for the head, this poor woman did not leave a more complete body.
However, what surprised Kieran the most was that no more traces were left at the scene.
Perhaps it is more accurate to say that there were originally quite clear traces left, but as night fell, such traces were quickly disappearing.
"A different night?"
"interesting."
Kieran squinted and whispered to himself.
Beep!
In the distance, a sharp whistle sounded.
Qin Ran glanced at the group of uniformed law enforcers who were obviously police officers, then turned and walked into the shadows.
He doesn't mind contact with the other party.
But now, it's not time yet.
…
Night fell as promised.
In the dark night sky, there was no bright moon, let alone stars. It was just a mass of darkness, just like a black mist shrouding the sky above Edesh.
The people living here locked their rooms early and fell asleep.
On the bedside, more or less some self-defense weapons will be placed.
Almost as soon as darkness fell, Edx fell into silence.
Of course, not all.
In some streets and alleys, there are always a few places that are brightly lit.
In the shortest time, Qin Ran easily found three taverns and hotels where quite a lot of people gathered.
Then, he chose one of the hotels called ‘Fire Grilled Fish’.
This choice is not arbitrary.
Apart from the fact that the name 'Fire Grilled Fish' made Kieran quite fond of it, it was also because this hotel had an aura of power that far surpassed the other two places.
The aura of a strong person in the eyes of ordinary people.
jingle.
"Welcome to the warriors who dare to travel at night."
"You should be lucky that you didn't make the wrong choice - I have good beer and freshly baked bread here. Of course, I suggest you order a signature dish: oven-roasted fish!"
Kieran pushed the door open and walked in. A rough and wild voice came from the ringing of the doorbell.
A shirtless man standing behind the bar on the first floor, showing strong muscles and thick chest hair, greeted Kieran loudly.
The other party still held half a glass of beer in his hand, and his beard, which was as thick as his chest hair, was covered with alcohol. The candlelight shone on his bald head, making him extremely conspicuous.
"A hearth-roasted fish and bread."
"I also need a clean room with hot water."
Kieran said and walked towards the corner of the first floor.
"certainly!"
"I have everything you need. Would you like to pay in ancient coins or cash?"
The other person smiled and nodded.
Ancient coins, cash?
For Kieran who was not very familiar with the copy world in front of him, this was undoubtedly information that needed to be recorded.
Fortunately, through his observation just now, he knew that precious metals are still hard currency here.
Bang.
A piece of gold the size of an adult's little fingernail just landed on the wooden bar with such precision, shining brightly under the light of a tallow candle as thick as an arm.
The brilliance of gold immediately attracted the attention of other people in the hotel.
There was deep greed in these people's eyes.
However, immediately, they withdrew their gaze.
Because, the one standing behind the bar was staring at them fiercely.
"This is 'Stove Grilled Fish', and it's my Raglan's place!"
"Whoever dares to disobey my rules, I will feed him to the fish!"
exclaimed Raglan, owner of Oven Fish.
Then, he picked up the gold and put it in his trouser pocket, and said to Qin Ran in an extremely gentle tone: "Sir, I assure you that you will be treated like home here."
"Your room is always waiting for you."
"Your grilled fish and bread will be here soon, and I will send you a vegetable soup and beer, please enjoy yourself."
Apparently, that little piece of gold played a decisive role.
Qin Ran's room was cleaned out very quickly, and the food appeared in front of him three minutes later.
Grilled fish and bread are common food, and the vegetable soup lacks salt, let alone whole vegetables, but some chopped green grass.
Kieran didn't touch the beer. He put the glass aside and began to eat his own dinner. His ears were collecting all the information that could be collected.
Although the people in the hall talked as quietly as possible, according to Kieran's perception, none of these people's whispers escaped his ears, as if they were whispering in his ears.
"What exactly is it?"
"The police said it was a wolf."
"Give me a break."
"I don't know if that thing is a bloodborn, a werewolf, or a ghoul."
"But one thing is for sure!"
"Those idiots are just talking nonsense."
…
The words were full of sarcasm and ridicule, and then caused ridicule from the tablemates.
Then, these guys raised their glasses frequently.
Qin Ran listened silently.
Most of them are useless news with speculation.
But not entirely.
When Kieran finished the vegetable soup in one gulp, the two guests on the table near the table that he had been silently paying attention to spoke up.
These two people are old and young.
The older one was carrying a cane, and there was a tiny gap near the handle of the cane. Although it was very hidden, Kieran knew what was hidden inside with a glance.
Blade!
A long sword with the shape of a cane and a blade inside.
The younger one was more direct. The brown windbreaker could not cover the strange bulge of his psoas muscles. Looking at the outline, Kieran knew that it should be a revolver.
They both have brown hair, emerald green eyes, and their faces are roughly similar.
There is obviously a blood relationship.
"Will, what do you think that is?"
The young man asked in a low voice.
"It won't be blood descendants. They like to maintain their so-called grace."
"They won't be werewolves either. Their madness won't erupt until the night of the full moon. Even werewolves who like to hunt won't 'waste food'. They will pack everything away instead of throwing it away. All over the place.”
"Ghouls are a possibility."
"The behavior of these guys is no longer dictated by their shriveled brains. They are no different from ordinary beasts."
"However, I am more inclined to..."
The elder's words continued, and he came to the most critical point.
But at this moment, he was interrupted by a rude door push.
boom!
The door of the 'Fire Grilled Fish' hit the inner wall heavily, and the hanging doorbell was flattened before it even had time to make a sound.
An extremely tall man led two people in.
Of those two, one had a ferocious face and the other had a thin figure.
The three people's eyes scanned the entire hotel lobby. When they saw Qin Ran sitting in the corner, their eyes lit up and they walked towards Qin Ran with a ferocious smile.
