Collectors of Beauty World

Chapter 2
"There were two dead, and the murder weapon was a knife. To be precise, it was some kind of large machete. The murderer was so powerful that he chopped off the head of the deceased with just one knife. For more detailed information, I need to go back and do a detailed test .”

A forensic doctor talks to a female police officer at the scene of a homicide.

"Is there anything you can tell me now, Henry. You've always been able to see more, tell me."

The forensic doctor named Henry looked at the policewoman in front of him helplessly.

". Well, the only thing I can tell you about this case is that the murderer is very dangerous. He is professional, indifferent, and ruthless. Looking at the surrounding layout, the deceased should have a premonition. They have made certain preparations, maybe Ready to run or something.

But it didn't work.The murderer found them and killed them with two clean cuts.The two deceased were both physically strong youths, but there was no sign of a fight at the scene.This shows that they have no ability to react in front of the murderer.

Officer Jon, if you're going to pursue this case, be careful.The killer may be more dangerous than imagined. "

"So, it's a professional killer. Professional killers with machetes are rare in this city."

Hearing the word machete, Henry's eyes changed slightly.It was so subtle that it was not noticed by the police officer in front of him.

"Okay, I'm going back to work."

"Bye, Henry."

"Bye, Officer Jon."

Looking at the back of Henry leaving.Officer Jon turned his attention to the case.

After Henry left the scene, he immediately took out his mobile phone and made a call.

"Hi, Abel."

"Hi, Dad."

"Well, did you see Lu yesterday?"

"Oh, sorry I forgot to tell you. I saw him yesterday, last night."

".I knew it. Could you."

"Hey, dad. I gotta tell you the truth. Those two guys did it first yesterday. They shot Lu in the chest. If I hadn't heard the movement and rushed over, he might be in pain Suffering for two hours before dying. So, while I don't quite agree with him, I can understand.

Because if someone shoots at me, I will make the same choice as Lu without hesitation. "

".All right."

Henry hung up the phone helplessly.In fact, he called just to confirm.In fact, it is impossible for him to really report this kind of thing.Who made him himself an existence that cannot be exposed.

Abel who hung up the phone shrugged at Lu Xiao in front of him.

"Father took over the case. Don't worry, nothing will go wrong."

"I know."

Lu Xiao didn't care about this. When he was wearing a hockey mask and holding a machete, he had completely inherited Jason's strength.It couldn't be easier to kill two young people.And at that time, he was a completely different existence.It's strange that the police can find him.

Henry was still burying his head in eating.It's Chinese food, but it's modified by Lu Xiao according to his taste.In fact, pure Chinese food is not suitable for American tastes.Therefore, when Lu Xiao entertains friends, he usually uses improved dishes.

"Lu, your craftsmanship is getting better and better. Although I have said it many times, I still want to say it again, you should open a restaurant, not an antique shop."

"I learned this from you. It doesn't make sense that you can make money, but I can't."

Yes, Abel also owns an antique shop.And it's right across from Lu Xiao.But Abel's antique shop can be said to be a little famous, the key is that he has a lot of genuine goods in his hand.

"Forget it, look at the pile of rags in your store. Since you opened the store, there has never been anything that can be called an antique in your store. Also, the blood on the sword , why don't you clean it up."

Abel pointed to the sword that cut off Lu Xiao's head last night and said.He forgot to clean up yesterday, thinking that Lu Xiao would clean up by himself.As a result, the kid just hung there like that, without moving.

"That one. I'm going to make up a story about it to increase its value. How about the sword used by King Arthur back then. There are still blood stains left on it from the battles of the year. What do you think?"

"I think King Arthur was a character more than 1000 years ago, and the blood on your sword was more than a day ago. So."

"There seems to be no hope."

After Lu Xiao complained, he continued to bury his head in his meal.But at this time, his phone rang.

Lu Xiao took out his mobile phone, and it showed a familiar yet unfamiliar person, Anna.

He said they were familiar because he and Anna were born in the same children's welfare home.Be regarded as growing up together.

The reason for saying unfamiliar is that the Lu Xiao that Anna knew had died when he was 15 years old.Lu Xiao, the traverser, inherited the other party's memory.

Shaking his head, he squeezed out the sudden flashback.Lu Xiao connected the phone.

"Hi Anna."

"Hi, Lu." Anna on the other end of the phone paused, then said.

"Lu, do you remember Lucy?"

Lu Xiao thought for a while, and a lonely figure appeared in his memory.

"I have an impression, I remember you two are good friends, right. Did something happen?"

".Lu, are you safe? What I say next cannot be heard by others."

Lu Xiao glanced at Abel who was busy cooking, and then said.

"There's no one around me, let's talk."

Abel on the opposite side gave him a blank look.It's a pity that an old man in his 60s is sitting and moving here, which is completely unattractive, and it can only make Lu Xiao unable to look directly at it.

"Lucy killed someone, we need help." Anna's simple and direct words made Lu Xiao stunned for a moment.

"." Lu Xiao wanted to say, you should call the police for this kind of thing.But when the words came to his lips, he stopped them.

If it was someone else, he would hang up the phone directly, and he might even call the police directly.But Anna was still a little different.

According to the memory of my predecessor, when I was in the orphanage.As one of the very few Asians in the orphanage.Lu Xiao's situation was extremely uncomfortable.Don't think that the children in the orphanage are the kind who love each other, are sensible and considerate.

In fact, because of the lack of family education.Most of the children in orphanages have bad personalities.When a group of people with bad personalities get together, even worse consequences will naturally erupt.

Lu Xiao's previous personality was a bit withdrawn.In the United States, his personality, coupled with his Asian identity, can be said to be full of debuffs.Therefore, life in the orphanage can be described as dire straits.

During this process, Anna was the only one who was kind to her and helped him sincerely.Although later, Lu Xiao's predecessor still couldn't bear the humiliation, and committed suicide by taking medicine.Then there was the follow-up of Lu Xiao's time travel.

Although the predecessor is dead, but this friendship really exists.And it also affects the current Lu Xiao.

So, Lu Xiao took a deep breath, and then said.

"Anna, tell me where you are?"
