Chapter 672 Lasik’s Endless Nightmare
"Good morning Rashik, you look much better. Did you have fun these two days?"
Although it had just passed early in the morning, there was already a scorching smell in the air. Mrs. Mary put her hand on her forehead to block the light and looked at the convertible that slowly stopped on the roadside.
"Very good! Everyone feels relaxed."
In the seemingly well-maintained car, a lady with thick brown hair straightened her wide-brimmed hat and said hello to Mrs. Mary.
This person looks to be about thirty years old, and his appearance can be called mature and gorgeous, but his expression is lazy at the moment, there is no makeup on his face, and he looks like he is on vacation.
"The only problem is that after I relaxed, I seemed to have lost interest in the plans I made before."
"At least you achieved your purpose here, didn't you?"
Mrs. Mary seemed to understand her mood very well and said with a smile.
"Want to come in for a cold lemonade?"
Well--
Lasik tilted his head and thought for a while, then readily agreed.
The next moment she opened the door and got out of the car, walked into Mrs. Mary's yard, and said hello to Jones who was about to get into the car.
"Chief Jones, are you late at this time?"
"I'm older and this is standard time for me."
Jones spoke quite confidently and started the car directly after saying hello.
Mrs. Mary obviously came out to take her husband to work, and during the conversation between the two, Jones stood there patiently, as if waiting specifically for Rashik to come in and say hello to her.
"have you eaten breakfast?"
Watching Sheriff Jones' car drive away, Mrs. Mary asked enthusiastically while leading Lasik into the house.
"No."
Rasik was also rude and hung his hat aside with a smile.
"Then it seems that this is indeed your lucky place. I just had an extra breakfast today."
Mrs. Mary had a tone that I knew very well, and quickly brought over a plate and placed it on the table.
"Make an extra serving?"
Lowering his head and smelling the fried eggs in front of him, Rashik frowned slightly.
"If you tell me in advance."
Mrs. Mary smiled.
"Jones has had a bad appetite today and that's his share."
"I really didn't see that."
After hearing what Mrs. Mary said, Rashik felt relieved and took the tableware naturally.
"The Sheriff doesn't seem like the kind of person who would be unable to eat due to anything."
"It's really rare for him."
Mrs. Mary sighed softly, and then she hesitated slightly as she thought of something next moment.
"Speaking of which, you should be careful not to go to too remote places alone."
oh?
Lasik, who was filling his mouth with fried eggs, looked up after hearing this.
"What happened?"
"Logically speaking, I shouldn't tell you this, but you don't seem to have anywhere to leak the secrets."
Mrs. Mary smiled and continued her work.
"Yes, a resident of this town is missing."
"Ah! When?"
Rasik looked a little disapproving, and his surprised tone was purely in line with Mrs. Mary's.
"On the night you got here."
"That was two days ago...and you haven't heard of it at all?"
Rashik finally became more serious.
"That's because not long after, the victim's family also disappeared."
Mrs. Mary shook her head and sighed.
"Less than a day after Mrs. Harold disappeared, her husband was nowhere to be seen."
"It sounds a little strange."
"But just two disappearances are not enough to make a police chief unable to eat, right?"
Lasik's thinking is quite sharp.
"that is because……"
Mrs. Mary thought for a moment and lowered her voice.
"They found Mrs. Harold, just last night."
"...Shouldn't this be a good thing?"
"The person is dead."
"All right."
Rashik seemed speechless for a moment and could only concentrate on filling his mouth with fried eggs.
"So her husband is now a prime suspect?"
"I understand that you don't have a good impression of men right now."
Mrs. Mary smiled helplessly.
"Even if Harold's suspicion is very high, don't take it lightly."
"kindness?"
"Mrs. Harold's death scene was very cruel."
"cruel?"
Rasik frowned and asked, his expression seemed to say that everyone was dead. There was no need to emphasize this point.
"...It is said to be comparable to a slaughterhouse. Not only were people disemboweled, but their bodies were also arranged in weird shapes."
Mrs. Mary spoke as if she were trying to scare a child.
"It's hard to imagine what kind of hatred would lead someone to do this."
"Isn't this too exaggerated? Did you see it with your own eyes?"
"Jones told me that himself."
Mrs. Mary exhaled.
"He never told me this, but when he came back this time, he told me twice in a row."
"It can be seen that even he needs someone to help bear this memory."
"It's true...but no matter what, it shouldn't have anything to do with me, a foreigner, right?"
"Why do you take it for granted!"
Hearing what Lasik said, Mrs. Mary was a little angry for a moment.
"The same goes for one of my nephews. I told him it was safer here, but he refused no matter what. He insisted on living in the mountains with his classmates."
"Did you know that the body was said to have had its head opened, and the inside was hollowed out? The murderer seemed to be looking for something."
"Is this so? Could it be——"
Lasik's expression finally became serious, and he even looked up at the clock on the wall mid-sentence.
"What is the murderer really looking for?"
"What's the meaning?"
Putting the hot polenta in front of Rasik, Mrs. Mary didn't quite understand what she wanted to say.
However, the next moment, accompanied by a sound of wind, a heavy ashtray hit her temple, and she immediately fell to the ground without saying a word.
Haha...hahaha!
Putting the ashtray down gently, Rasik looked at the drop of blood splashed in the polenta and actually laughed out loud for a moment.
The next moment she picked up the scalding bowl of porridge and drank the contents in one gulp as if she didn't feel the heat.
Gently putting the bowl down, she looked at Mrs. Mary on the ground, and finally spoke hoarsely.
"Feel sorry……"
…
"Why? Why didn't you either!"
Not long after, in the Shura-like living room, Lasik faced a floor of flesh and blood, looking like he was going crazy.
"Impossible! You are the last member of that family in this town! The key point must be you!"
"I've searched everything, and all suspicious items have been eliminated, so there must be something wrong with the person, related to blood! I can't be wrong!"
"So how could there be nothing in your body-"
Crazy tearing at the opened head, after a long time Rasik looked at the clock on the wall and covered his face in pain.
"sorry--"
The task summary will be postponed to tomorrow for now...
