49 Chapter 4.5
There was no blood in the room, but there was a strong smell of blood in the air, which made people very uncomfortable.

Until a few people came to the terrace.

This is the highest and most expensive floor of the entire hotel. The reason is that the four suites on the top floor are each equipped with a "sky garden".

From the terrace, you can see the scenery of the city through the faint mist.The fence around the patio is surrounded by vines and lush flowers.

In the center of the terrace is a lawn.There's a swing, there's a sofa, and...a mutilated corpse and blood.

This is a male corpse lying on its back, without clothes, and it seems that it has been scratched off by some small sharp object. The face and body facing up are bloody and bloody, exposing bones and internal organs in a very irregular way .

This scene made everyone present stand still, and then couldn't help retching.

But at this time, after being dazed for a long time, Lin Xiaomei suddenly turned pale and said softly to Ye Man: "I know what my superpower is."

The police officer and the forensic doctor took the corpse away, and Bob said politely to Lin Xiaomei and Ye Man: "Every time in the past, you would tell us to leave the corpse for you to look at first, but this time it's a bit... But I still ask Let me ask you, what information did you get?"

Ye Man was still thinking, but Lin Xiaomei said directly: "The deceased was fixed in this place before he was alive."

"Doctor Lin, may I ask what happened to the marks on his body?" Bob asked.

"It was produced by being pecked by birds." Lin Xiaomei's face was pale.

"Birds pecking at it?" Bob's face was also a little ugly. "There is no fixed mark on this lawn. How did the murderer do it?"

Lin Xiaomei shook her head, expressing her ignorance.

"Have you confirmed your identity?" Ye Man suddenly asked Bob.

Bob opened the note and said: "I'm sure, it's a noble and wealthy businessman. It's called Tort von Grauss. It seems to be a hotel that he booked alone."

"It's called Gross...has anyone been here before?" Ye Man asked.

"We asked the cleaning staff at the hotel and unfortunately there were no witnesses. Mr Grouse always had food delivered to his room and ordered a lot of food all the time. We suspect he was secretly meeting with someone else here. "

Ye Man thought for a while and said, "Maybe we have some clues as to who he is meeting with..."

Bob raised his eyebrows in genuine curiosity.

"Sheriff Bob, is there a very famous circus in this city?" Ye Man asked.

"There is, but we don't have permission to enter. It is a circus for the rich and nobles to play, and it has a strict membership system. It requires invitations and a certain status. Most importantly, police officers are not allowed to visit." Bob answered with his mouth, and kept recording information in his hands, "Unless we have key evidence pointing to them, we won't be able to get in."

On the way back, Ye Man asked Lin Xiaomei: "So, what is your superpower?"

Lin Xiaomei recalled what happened the moment she saw the deceased. Her perspective suddenly changed to lying on the ground, unable to move her hands, feet and body, while hundreds of birds swooped down. To the overwhelming pain, and the screams in the body...

It didn't last long, perhaps because there were too many birds, which killed the man in an instant.

"Is it an ability similar to dying retrospective?" Ye Man frowned and thought, "This ability may be of great help to us in investigating cases. Did you find anything weird?"

Lin Xiaomei thought about it, and then said solemnly: "There are two strange things."

Lin Xiaomei also felt all the senses of that person at the moment of backtracking, and then discovered the strangeness.

The first is the feeling that this person is not bound, not that several positions are locked, but that there is not a single muscle in the whole body that can move.It feels like being frozen...

Second, there are these birds, which seem to be... strange looking.

"What kind of strange method?" Ye Man asked.

"It's not like urban birds." Lin Xiaomei replied, "In cities, they are usually pigeons or crows, or other small omnivorous birds. Those birds are relatively large, with hook-like beaks and claws, more like... eagles or vulture..."

After all, Lin Xiaomei hugged her body and shivered.

Her skill, as Ye Man said, was of great help to the investigation, but it also brought a heavy psychological shadow to her.

The two fell silent—hundreds of hawks or vultures.If it's not the city anomaly, it's the murderer's arrangement.

"This murderer may be someone with superpowers." After a moment of silence, Ye Manru said.

In this regard, Lin Xiaomei also had such a guess.The thing that can freeze people and maintain their sanity without leaving any clues, other than superpowers, is superpower props...

The two returned to the office, and Ye Man went to call Mia.

The office address and Mia's phone address were all written down and asked by Ye Man, which made Lin Xiaomei sigh for the carefulness of Xueba.

Ye Man turned on the speakerphone, and after three beeps, a strange female voice picked up the call.

"Are you looking for Madam? Madam is not at home and has gone to the police station." The female voice replied, "Do you need me to leave a message for you?"

"Go to the police station? What is it for?" Ye Man asked intentionally.

"Oh, I don't know too well. But it should be about Mr. Grouse's business?" The female voice replied, "Anyway, we are servants, so I don't know. Who are you? When she comes back, I will call her..."

Ye Man hung up the phone and called the police station.

Bob's voice sounded: "Detective Ye? Do you have any new discoveries?"

"Sheriff Bob, Mia... is Mrs. Grouse with you?"

"Oh, that's right, we asked her to come over to cooperate with the investigation. She should be... oh, here she is!" Bob said, "Are you looking for her?"

"Yes, please put her on the phone with me. Don't tell her it's me."

After a while, a familiar voice sounded: "Hello, this is Mia von Grauss. Are you..."

"Mrs. Grouse, do you still remember me?" Ye Man asked.

"Ah, Detective Ye. Hello, I remember you..." The other party replied.

Ye Man breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "Then, you stay in the police station and cooperate with the investigation. We may go to your home with the police."

"What happened?" Mia asked in surprise.

"It's not a big deal..." Ye Man replied, "The murderer may have come to your house while you were out."
