Chapter 104 Fifteen. Facts More Desperate Than Sadness

  The atmosphere in the living room became silent.

  Trance's eyes were red, holding back tears.

   Lu Li seemed to hear the sound of sniffling from the empty space beside him. It might be an illusion, but Anna might actually be crying.

   "After that." Lu Li's question was very unpleasant.

  Trance buried his head: "I cleaned the house and bought disinfectant to cover up the smell. You have come to investigate, I can't tell the truth, just tell them that my wife is missing... Then you came."

   Everything is clear.

  Lu Li continued to ask, "Have you seen a psychiatrist?"

  Trance trembled all over, his face was hidden in shadows, and his voice could not tell the emotion: "Do you... think I have a mental problem..."

   "No, just to confirm. After all, your current image is not very convincing." Lu Li calmly said.

   "So...you believe it?"

  Lu Li didn't deny it: "You didn't have to lie to me, and I know what you said is true."

  If you don't know the line of the madhouse, even if you become an exorcist, Lu Li may not believe it. But after learning a little about Richard's plans, things get a little different, especially after...

  Trance's expression was complicated, and his psychological pressure was released as he told him, but Lu Li's next sentence made him stunned.

   "By the way, she's waiting for you to come back."

"What did you say?"

  Trance's inquiries went unanswered. Lu Li stood up, turned and walked towards the door. The slender back blocked the rain on the street. He held up his umbrella and stepped into the rain, the door gradually closing behind him.

  Trance couldn't understand what Lu Li's last sentence meant, and he didn't even know if the "she" Lu Li said was his wife.

   Until an old and strange face suddenly appeared in my mind, and her somewhat strange words...all the answers were presented in front of me.

  In the deserted and dim room, a lonely figure sat on the sofa. He held his head, his face hidden in the darkness.

   At a certain moment, a low, uncontrollable choked cry gradually sounded.

  …

   "The old man he was talking about...is his wife?"

The   yellow-painted carriage left Watch Town and was driven to the other side of the mountain by a groom in a raincoat.

   The rain started to get heavier again, and it seemed that only the sound of rain remained in the whole space.

  In the carriage, Anna asked in a low voice.

   She remembered that Hall also looked like an old man in the end, although it was actually too rotten.

"Um."

   "But didn't she want to attack Terrance? Why did she look like she loved him very much in the end, and she had to look at him one last time." Anna couldn't understand, which made her not know what emotions to use to face this incident.

   "Am I O'Connor?" Lu Li asked strangely.

   "No, no."

   "So why do you think I know?"

   Being watched by Lu Li's black eyes, Anna was speechless.

However, his voice was still in his ear, and the confusion was relieved: "According to my guess, maybe this kind of entanglement is normal. Remember what I said, the side effect of this occupation is obvious. The body will rot, and the memory will also be destroyed. Mixed together. O'Connor now has the memory of three people, if he hasn't attacked the next victim."

"It is stuffed into the brain like a person's entire memory. If the previous O'Connor is called the main personality, and the two victims Ruby and Shelley are called the sub-personality, at this time, he is likely to be unable to distinguish the main personality. He could be one of the three personalities at any time, or a mix. In this case, after seeing her husband, Shelley's personality emerged as a matter of course."

   "Just say no, why are you sarcastic at me... But it sounds like he might turn into a monster if he continues?"

  Anna's self-talk made Lu Li's eyes narrow and turned to her: "What did you say?"

  Anna felt a little guilty for some reason, and felt that she couldn't admit it at this time, so she crossed her waist and shouted crisply, "Why, why are you making fun of me..."

  The sound of rain covered Anna's voice, and it only sounded in the narrow car, inside and outside the car were like two worlds.

   "Next sentence."

  Ana asked tentatively, "Maybe he will become a monster if he occupies it?"

  Lu Li stopped talking and started to think. He vaguely touched some clues, but it was too vague.

  He re-listed the three key props of the indescribable thing in his heart: flesh, eyeballs, and tentacles.

   "A piece of meat, an eyeball, and a tentacle. What can you think of from these three things?" He asked Anna, hoping that she would bring new inspiration.

   "Octopus!" Anna didn't even want to answer. Seeing that Lu Li didn't say a word, she asked cautiously, "Am I wrong...?"

   "You're fine, the problem lies with me." Lu Li shook his head gently.

   This question is meaningless, and the existence that can bring the dead back to life and make people crazy cannot be ordinary creatures.

  The indescribable octopus?

   is even more incomprehensible, like an indescribable dog.

   But anyway, something about Richard's plot finally came to light.

  …

   It was near noon, and when I returned to the detective agency, the phone on the desk was restless.

   This scene seems familiar.

   "Wow! You're finally answering the phone! If you're 13 minutes and 24 seconds at night, my number may be sued and banned - do you know what just happened!"

  Lu Li picked up the phone and didn't need to put it to his ear to hear Marcus yelling.

   "I don't know." Lu Li replied.

   "Turn on the radio, this is going on inside!"

  Lu Li looked up at the radio and reached out to turn it on.

   [Morrel uttered a loud cry, he was mad and full of doubts, as if he had seen a vision of heaven, and knelt down as if dizzy. The next morning, at dawn—]

   The voice on the radio is telling a story.

   "Uh...other Hertz...hey wait what Hertz are you now, sounds interesting—"

   "Then I'm going to hang up."

"Wait! Wait a minute! Well let me tell you... impatient guy. It was a homicide not long ago, in the Rum District. Five men jumped off the Fingerless apartment building and committed suicide, only three The height of the floor, they all landed head first, with a bang like a boiled jicama—how about it, doesn’t it feel familiar?”

   "What do you want to say?"

   Of course Lu Li knew what he wanted to say, who the dead man was, and who the murderer was—because this incident was the result of his connivance.

  Lu Li thought that the ghost would fail again, and waited until he helped her solve it.

   For example, calling the police and sending them to jail.

   I didn't expect the ghost to actually take revenge on the target.
