Chapter 402 Discovery
"Let me tell you a conclusion. The professor's worries have come true."
Annan, who had just exited the other world, threw the body on the ground.
The unrecognizable corpse under his feet was not his fault. He was just recycling it - recycling it in the other world.
"OMG……"
Detective Antonio, who looked ugly, took out a black and white photo from his arms.
This is a wedding photo of a couple, and the husband in the photo can barely be recognized on the body on the ground.
"How could such an unreasonable thing happen..."
Half a month has passed since the moon in the other world appeared in reality.
Today, Annan, who was going to school, was called over by the detective to help.
Antonio usually wouldn't ask this ally to help him. It should be said that this was the first time. However, it was precisely because he noticed some situations that he wanted to find this capable helper who was familiar with black magic. .
The detective brought Annan to a small house in an ordinary residential area. From the layout of the house, it can be seen that this is a well-off home, where a family of three lives.
Before conducting the investigation, Antonio made an excuse and deliberately transferred his client. The next thing cannot be seen by others, otherwise it will be troublesome.
"Annan, as I said before, my detective commission this time is to find a missing man, an ordinary office worker who disappeared silently and suddenly."
Antonio didn't realize the problem when he first received the commission, but when he came to the house to conduct the most basic questioning and investigation, the dark blood in his body suddenly reacted.
The detective, who very much followed the advice of Annan and the magic professor, had always worked hard to control his werewolf blood and would never use it actively.
However, there was a certain unpleasant smell lingering in this home that almost made his instincts burst out.
However, there was no response from his client, the lady who was looking for her missing husband, and their daughter.
Antonio didn't know what this meant, but he understood that he had to find someone to help him. This was beyond his ability.
"The disappearance of the husband in this family is very inexplicable. According to the lady, they went to bed together at night, but when they woke up the next day, the husband was missing and could never be found again."
Even if Antonio didn't need to reason, he immediately made a guess after hearing the news.
"That unlucky husband might have somehow fallen into the other world in his sleep..."
Antonio doesn't have a way to freely enter and exit the other world, but Annan does.
Although some time has passed since the incident, and maybe there are no clues to be found in the other world now, but at least it is a slim possibility and opportunity.
Annan did not refuse this matter. After all, it was very simple for him, just go into the other world and take a look.
Who knows, this meaningless behavior that I thought I would not find anything actually turned out to be something.
"After I entered the other world in this bedroom, I didn't see anything useful. It was a desert, a desert. I walked around there casually, and then I happened to see this."
Annan pointed at the unrecognizable male corpse at his feet that he had just moved out.
He had also seen photos of the missing person, so he could barely identify that this was the missing person himself.
"So, Mr. Detective, what are you going to do about this?"
"I'll handle it... Then, I'll find a suitable excuse and method, saying that I found the missing person by coincidence... Although it's cruel, I think they need to know that their loved ones are dead. It's better than hugging them all the time in a meaningless way. Keep hope..."
Antonio thought about whether to hide the matter, but he felt that it would be more cruel than telling the truth, so he decided to think of a reasonable method, saying that he had found the body of the missing person, so that the client could accept the matter.
"However, what I have here is just a trivial matter... Annan, you just said that the professor's worries came true. Is it true..."
"Mr. Detective, maybe you haven't noticed, but the number of missing people in the city has increased greatly recently."
The information related to Annan naturally came from the largest local gang, which means that it is trustworthy and reliable information. It is an undoubted fact.
"Rodrick is already paying attention and has conducted a substantial investigation. After all, some people in his gang have suddenly disappeared. The problem is that none of the missing people seem to have come back."
Annan squatted down and examined the unrecognizable corpse seriously and carefully.
"Look, although this corpse looks miserable, it wasn't eaten by any creature. It looks more like it was destroyed by the natural environment. Moreover, look inside."
Annan arranged the place for a while, and then directly cut open the body.
Antonio didn't stop him because he knew Annan was investigating something.
As for how to explain the damage to the body to the client in the future, it is his own problem. Anyway, he will find an excuse for the client to accept it.
"This is……"
After all, Antonio has worked as a policeman and has faced various situations. He has no fear or resistance to the inside of a corpse.
He frowned and stared at the corpse's empty stomach.
"There is nothing... Could it be..."
"This unlucky guy might have starved to death."
This was Annan's intuition, but his intuition had always been accurate, so he thought it was possible.
"You know, the other world will exclude those unlucky ones who accidentally enter after a certain period of time. Some people have a short period of time and some people have a long period of time. Basically, if you have dark blood and are a dark race, It is possible to stay in the other world for a long time.
If you are just an ordinary person and have not been exposed to black magic, your stay will be relatively short. This is a guess made by Bronze Gate, who has been exploring the other world. It should be neutral and reliable enough. I also support this statement. "
Antonio looked surprised, already understanding what his companion meant.
"You want to say... people who are attracted to the other world because of the influence of the previous two-month incident... it is very likely that they will not be able to return to reality... but this is... is this possible?"
"I don't know. It's just a guess based on the recent missing persons."
Annan shrugged irresponsibly.
"But, judging from the current situation, I'm afraid that's it. Ha, if that's really the case, then the problem will be astonishingly big."
