Absurd deduction game

Chapter 50 Look, you’re still fine

Lucia has been busy with work recently. Although she was informed that her old friend Roy would come over today, she had no place to receive him other than the police station office.

Theft, conflict, fraud, it seems that after that incident began, uneasiness began to fuel the crime rate among the townspeople.

She was really - so tired, especially her neck, which always felt like her cervical spine was numb.

"Dong dong."

There were two knocks on the unclosed door of her office. Lucia raised her face from the thick papers and finally saw the face she had not seen for many years.

"Hi, Roy!" She stood up in surprise, walked around the desk, opened her arms and hugged Roy, who was a head taller than her.

"Well, long time no see." Yu Xing felt Lucia's strength, which was different from the hot-tempered policewoman he imagined, soft and soft.

He let go of Lucia and took out the box of beautifully wrapped chocolates from his handbag: "This is a gift."

Lucia showed a happy expression and reached out to take the box: "Thank you, I like it very much. Alas, it's a pity that I have been upset recently and my appetite is not good. I used to eat ten of these chocolates in one sitting!"

Yu Xing took the opportunity to observe her closely. The close-fitting uniform perfectly outlined Lucia's curvy figure. Black trousers wrapped her long legs. She had blond hair, common makeup on her face, and her neck was exposed. The wrists and wrists are a little tanned, and it looks like he often goes out to work, rather than sitting in the office.

Martha and York followed Yu Xing, keeping silent and keeping a low profile since entering the police station.

The police station was very loose. Except for Lucia, who occupied an office alone, they only saw five police officers. They didn't know if there were other police officers who were out on duty.

The windows of the office were covered by curtains, making the indoor light not very good. Martha looked around in confusion. Before she could say anything, Lucia noticed her and looked surprised.

"Oh, why is there a child!"

"...I'm not a child, I just look small." Martha said expressionlessly, rejecting Lucia's hand that had already been stretched out to her head to rub it.

Lucia laughed twice: "The little girl has such a personality, Roy, is this your sister?"

Yu Xing reached out and took off his hat to show courtesy: "No, actually...her name is Martha, and this is York. They are the two exorcists you specifically asked me to bring in your letter."

The words "exorcism" touched Lucia's nerves. Yu Xing could clearly see the corners of Lucia's eyes twitching, and her mood was obviously depressed.

"Yes, it's time to get down to business." Lucia sat down on the office chair again, and asked the three guests to move a few chairs. "My place is small, so I'm neglecting it. Well... the little girl is really exorcising demons." Human, eh, don’t glare at me.”

Under Martha's wide eyes, Lucia had no intention of continuing to doubt the exorcist's professionalism. She sighed and began to complain.

It turned out that the accident happened to a family living in the northernmost part of the town of Orilon.

This family, surnamed Brown, moved to Orilon Town just a year ago and lived in the largest and oldest single-family villa in the town.

The villa originally belonged to another family, but that family seemed to have encountered something and was in a hurry to move out, so they sold the house to the current Brown family at a low price.

A year passed, mostly peacefully, until a month and a half ago, when suddenly there were more legends about the Brown family.

Some say the Browns never left the house, never appeared at the market, and even neighbors rarely saw them.

Others said that every night, they could hear singing coming from that ancient villa, which would often stop mid-singing, followed by a shrill scream, which was terrifying.

But when she knocked on the door the next day, Mrs. Brown would smile and ask what happened, and even invite the knocker to be a guest at home.

Some people felt afraid and refused, and some people came out intact after going in, without finding anything wrong during the process.

But the sounds in the night did not stop. Instead, they became louder and seemed to intensify. What started as a person's humming turned into a chorus of a group of people.

Lucia also went to Brown's house and stayed overnight there. She found no problems. She could not arrest anyone in Brown's house. Since the rumors spread, residents in the town were uneasy and the crime rate had increased. Having no other choice, Lucia thought of Roy and some of his friends who knew how to exorcise demons.

"I hope you and your two exorcist friends can go as tourists to investigate and see if someone is causing trouble, or..." Lucia rubbed her stiff neck, "There is still a devil at work. .”

[The main mission has been triggered]

[Mission: Find the truth behind the strange incidents in the villa and hand over the investigation results to Lucia]

[Side mission has been triggered]

[Task: Complete three types of ghost information]

A long list of unseen prompts appeared in front of Yu Xing's eyes.

[Ghost 1: Unknown]

[Type: unknown]

[Solution: Unknown]

[Goblin 2: Unknown]

[Type: unknown]

This prompt was received by all three people.

York looked at Lucia and suddenly let out a low laugh that only Martha heard: "Haha."

"What are you laughing at, brother York?" Martha leaned over and swept one of her twin ponytails across York's fingers on the side of the chair.

York thought for a while and moved his lips: "There is something wrong with this woman."

Yu Xing didn't know what his teammates were talking about, so he just nodded to Lucia: "Okay, we'll visit later. Before that, I hope you can give me all the information you can provide."

"Well... the Brown family moved here not long ago. I have been in office for a shorter time, so I don't have much information. It's all here. Hey, don't spread the word, don't say I gave it to you." Lucia handed Yu Xing a thin File bag, rubbed his neck again, Yu Xing lowered his eyes and glanced at her collar.

"Are you feeling unwell?" he asked.

"One thing, maybe I'm too tired." Lucia felt a little helpless when she mentioned this. She has been weak in her hands and feet recently, has a sore neck, and doesn't like to see the sun very much.

Suddenly, she thought of something and jokingly said to York and Martha: "Maybe I am cursed. Two exorcists happen to be here. Why don't you take a look at me first? This handsome guy agreed. ?"

The sunny smile on York's face made people feel friendly, so Lucia silently relaxed when she looked at him.

As for Martha, she has been ignored.

York still remembered that he had followed Detective Roy as his friend, and when he heard the suggestion, he looked at Roy first.

Yu Xing nodded to him.

He felt that every move of this teammate named York was very comfortable. Although he had his own personality, he was very considerate of the overall situation.

"Okay, Ms. Lucia, I can take a look for you." After receiving Yu Xing's approval, York patted Martha and said, "Bao."

Martha obediently turned her back toward York.

Seeing him take out a pure black cross and a bottle of water in a glass bottle from Martha's big backpack, Yu Xing's eyes wandered between the little Lolita and the tall young man.

Good guy, no wonder I didn’t bring a package, the little loli had to carry all the things I needed to exorcise demons!

Is this some weird loli setting?

He couldn't bring in his normal sacrifices, and his character was a detective. There was currently no means of directly "exorcizing" demons, but both teammates were exorcists, so they should have some power to attack ghosts.

Yu Xing: Tsk, not happy.

York first opened the cork of the bottle of water, let Lucia stand in the open space, and sprinkled a little water in front of Lucia's feet.

Then he raised the cross -

At that moment, the cold aura in Yu Xing's body moved restlessly.

This made him instantly recognize that this cross was a sacrifice!

Yu Xing: Why, tsk, I’m even more unhappy.

The little loli pouted, ran to Yu Xing's side, and tugged on the sleeves of Yu Xing's suit.

Yu Xing bent down considerately and put his ear in front of the little Lolita.

"Brother York said Lucia was wrong." Martha's voice was sweet, like honey, and her breath swept across Yu Xing's earlobes, but Yu Xing remained unmoved.

"I know." Yu Xing replied, remembering the requirements and characters of the deduction prompt, and asked from a non-violating angle, "Has your exorcism technology improved? Is the cross useful for devils?"

The little Loli thought for a while: "Hmm..."

"The cross belongs to brother York. I haven't used it. It should be useful."

The implication is that this is York's sacrifice, and she doesn't understand it.

As soon as she finished speaking, Lucia let out a scream.

Yu Xing turned his head and looked, only to see that York's cross did not touch Lucia at all. Only wisps of black mist spread from the center of the cross and wrapped around Lucia.

Lucia, who just now had an indifferent expression of "I'm just saying casually, what if exorcism can drive me out of my decadence" instantly showed pain. She looked at herself in horror and murmured: "How should I reply?" Shit, I feel so much pain, what happened? I can’t really be cursed!"

York was still smiling. He put down the cross and walked to the stiff Lucia.

With his back to Yu Xing and Martha, his smile suddenly became a little more malicious. In Lucia's confused eyes, he stretched out his well-jointed index finger of his right hand and poked Lucia in the face.

"Bata."

Lucia's head fell to the ground, and the broken surface on her neck was so neat that there was no time for blood to flow out.

A second later, the red liquid spurted out. York quickly used the black robe he had put aside to cover it, and not a drop was splashed.

"What's wrong with me? It hurts..." Lucia's head rolled twice on the ground. Gululu rolled to Yu Xing's feet, her amber eyes widened, and she was still asking, "It hurts, I Is it cursed?”

The temperature in the office dropped a lot unknowingly, and the curtains tightly covered the outside world. Behind the three of them, the door automatically closed quietly without any wind.

"Oh my god~" The little loli stared and grabbed Yu Xing's clothes, "She——"

It seems that the little loli is not very courageous.

"Not afraid." Yu Xing touched Martha's head and looked at York, "What's wrong with Lucia?"

York turned his face, and the malicious smile at that moment was as if it had never appeared before, and he still smiled brightly: "What else can I do? I will be dead a long time ago."

Yu Xing glanced around after hearing this.

The police station office was in a mess. The body without the head was standing upright. There were splashes of blood on the ground. The head stopped at Yu Xing's feet and muttered something.

With the door closed and the temperature dropping, it was obvious something was going to happen.

I don't know which breath, Lucia stopped repeating the chatter.

She turned her head towards Yu Xing, blinked her eyes, and slowly shed two lines of bloody tears from the corners of her eyes, and asked, "Roy, what's wrong with me?"

Yu Xing found that the ghosts in the deduction liked to target him. It was obviously not him. Did he have a hatred attraction mechanism or something?

Little Loli was keenly aware of MT No. 1, let go of Yu Xing's clothes, and ran to York. York looked at Yu Xing with an undiminished smile, as if wanting to see how Yu Xing would answer Lucia's question.

Under normal circumstances, his temperament is as gentle as the brother next door, but in this situation, he is still smiling, and there is a faint sense of disobedience.

Hmm...the mentally ill kind.

"Roy, am I a devil?" Lucia's entire face twitched, showing an expression that looked like a smile.

Lucia smiled and said, "Roy, it hurts. What's wrong with me?"

Yu Xingxin said that your eyes are so big, can't you see where you fell from? A headless corpse with such a good figure is standing two meters away from you. Take a quick look and you can see your own corpse. What a novel experience.

He didn't say this in the end. The highlight of this deduction should be the Brown family. There was no need for him to make it more difficult. Besides, the main mission also required them to bring the investigation results back to Lucia.

Yu Xing's eyes were relaxed and he didn't seem to notice any danger. He bent down and held Lucia's head.

A flicker of interest arose in York's eyes, and Martha shivered.

"It's okay Lucia, you're just too tired." Yu Xing's tone of coaxing Lucia was like a kindergarten teacher coaxing a child. He avoided the blood on the ground and walked to the standing body.

He adjusted the head to a suitable angle, carefully pressed it on the fractured surface and spliced ​​it together. After the splicing was completed, he carefully looked at it and stretched out his hand to correct it twice.

Suddenly, a "complete as before" Lucia stood here.

Lucia looked at him with tears of blood.

Yu Xing: "Look, Lucia, you are still fine. It was just that you were too tired and mentally unstable. You need to rest, my friend. Seeing that you are exhausted, I will also be very sad."

Lucia:…

Little Masha: What kind of operation is this! ? You said it so sincerely, I almost believed it, okay?

York: Funny, Roy is like a psycho.

Lucia, who had reconnected her head and body, slowly turned her head.

It actually got connected.

Lucia's face gradually calmed down, the temperature in the room warmed up, and the door quietly opened.

"Oh, it's like a dream. It seems I really need to rest." She scratched her hair, as if she had forgotten about York's exorcism, and as if she couldn't see the blood on the ground or feel the blood and tears on her face. He returned to the same state as when they first met, and sat down on the office chair carelessly.

"Go find the Browns. They're at the far north end of town."
