Start by summoning the succubus

Chapter 31: The serial mutilation case has not yet been solved!

"what's the situation?!"

After half an hour.

Dawn City Law Enforcement Bureau.

Qi Lin held Irena's hand and walked into Zhou Yu's captain's office, looking at him confused, "David is not the murderer of the serial corpse case?!"

"sit."

Zhou Yu held a file in his hand and walked to the coffee table and sofa nearby. He took the lead and sat down, then poured two cups of tea for Qi Lin and Irena.

Qi Lin and Irena immediately sat across from him, but did not drink tea.

"Things have been cleared up."

Zhou Yu sighed, rubbed his brows tiredly, and then handed the file in his hand to Qi Lin: "David is the real culprit in more than a dozen missing cases, but it has nothing to do with the serial mutilation case. We have completely resolved this matter." Confirmation, that is to say, we did catch a murderer, but not from the corpse dismemberment case."

"..."

Qi Lin took the file and started flipping through the pages.

The more he watched, the more complicated his mood became.

It turns out that the demon hiding inside David is a demon named Merman who escaped from prison in the next city.

This Merman is a fourth-level winged demon, originally a contracted demon of a fourth-level demon envoy.

Later, this fourth-level demon committed a crime and was imprisoned. Merman, as an accessory, also went to jail with him.

After Merman spent several years in prison, with the help of another witch inmate, he released his contract and successfully escaped from prison.

It stands to reason that after the demons cancel the contract, they will be forcibly sent back to hell. This is the power planted in them by the summoning circle at the beginning. It is similar to a "timed transmission mechanism". As long as the contract is detected, this mechanism will be triggered. , start transmission.

But the witch cast a spell to help Merman hide the teleportation mechanism, making the mechanism mistakenly think that it was still in the contract state, so the teleportation was not initiated.

In this way, Merman, who had his contract terminated, stayed in the Blue Star Federation and wandered around several nearby cities as a free man who had been guilty of absconding.

Finally, in January last year, Merman came to the Nancheng District slum of Dawn City and met David.

David was at home and killed his mother with his own hands.

The reason was a dispute - David's mother was infected with anesthetic powder and wanted David to drop out of school and work as a thug to earn money for her to buy powder.

David's childhood was not a happy one.

no father.

His mother was a bastard, punching and kicking him at every turn.

Therefore, of course David was not willing to listen to his mother and drop out of school to work to buy her fans.

An argument ensued.

During the dispute, David accidentally threw his mother on the sharp corner of the table, smashing the back of her head and killing her on the spot.

Merman, who happened to be passing by, saw this young man who killed his mother with his own hands. He found it very interesting, so he began to confuse David's mind and promised to give him power, but the price was to ask David to help him collect his favorite food - -Humanity.

The first food David helped Merman collect was his mother's fresh corpse.

So in mid-January last year, David's mother did not disappear, but was killed by David himself and then eaten by Merman.

If the body cannot be found, it is naturally missing.

The Law Enforcement Bureau of Shuguang City has always ignored the slums in Nancheng District. After all, this ghost place can be called a gathering place for the dregs of society. People go missing every day and cannot be traced at all.

In the past two years, David often helped Merman catch people to eat.

But he is very selective.

He only arrested people from the slums, and only those homeless people who had no relatives or friends. They were marginalized figures in society who suddenly disappeared and no one cared about them.

So far, David has helped Merman capture 16 people, and the fate of those 16 people, without exception, was to be eaten alive by Merman.

And then?
And then it's now.

Zhou Yu first stabbed David through the heart with a special prop knife, causing Merman to mistakenly think that he had killed David, so he left David's body and tried to escape.

But Merman, the devil, was deceived by Zhou Yu, the human being.

Because this knife is actually a special high-end medical instrument that can heal wounds after causing them.Therefore, not long after David's heart was pierced by a knife, he was treated and recovered, and he did not die in the end... However, fortunately, he was a peak first-order transcendent, and he also specialized in body training.

Otherwise, if it were an ordinary person, he would be completely dead the moment his heart was pierced, and he would not be able to survive until the time of treatment and recovery.

Now, although David has survived, he has been imprisoned and has completed the interrogation and sentencing process, awaiting execution.

Short name: Cure first, then wait to die.

After all, the crime of "assisting the devil to eat people" has no possibility of survival in the Federation.

As for Merman?
As early as in the school gymnasium, this demon's head had been smashed by Zhou Yu on the spot, and his soul was crushed with Gang Qi. He was so dead that he could no longer die.

So, the whole incident is very clear.

David's cultivation talent has never exploded.

The reason why David has been able to improve his strength in the past two years is because of Merman's help, which creates the illusion of an explosion of talent.

However, after detailed inspection by the Law Enforcement Bureau, they found that David's lifespan was seriously short, so Merman was obviously lying to him. The reason why his strength was improved was because Merman was overdrawing his life force.

Abbreviation: The wool comes from the sheep.

In other words: draw blood from the sheep first, then feed it to drink, and lie to him that it is a good thing for replenishing blood.

There was no way, the school doctor at Shuguang No. [-] Middle School was not high enough after all, so David never discovered this matter for two years.

When Qi Lin read the file and saw this, he couldn't help but think of an old saying.

——Those who make deals with the devil never win.

"Are people that delicious?"

At this time, Irena said something in surprise.

The little succubus rested its head on Qi Lin's shoulder, read the entire dossier with him, and then expressed doubts: "When I was in hell, I often heard other demons say that human meat is delicious. Is that really the case?”

"This is a dangerous subject."

Zhou Yu took a sip of tea and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Don't think about it!"

Qi Lin directly gave the little succubus a blow, "If it doesn't work, I'll give you a taste of mine another day."

"?"

Zhou Yu was holding the tea cup with a strange expression. He felt that this sentence didn't sound right.

"I understand."

Qi Lin put the file on the coffee table and looked at Zhou Yu opposite, "So, David is indeed a criminal, but it has nothing to do with the serial corpse case, so his one or two small connections with the serial corpse case are just pure Is it a coincidence?"

"So far, that's the case." Zhou Yu nodded lightly.

"In other words, there is another real culprit in the serial corpse case, and he is still at large." Qi Lin frowned, "Captain Zhou, your previous divination results showed that I am the key to solving the serial corpse case. ? You made me panic like this."

"Calm down."

Zhou Yu put down the teacup and said calmly: "I called you over partly to dispel your doubts. My previous divination results showed that you are the key to solving the case, but I didn't actually divination which specific case it was. Maybe The case related to you might just be David’s case.”

"Maybe? Maybe?" Qi Lin looked suspicious.

"I can only use these words, because I really can't be 100% sure." Zhou Yu shrugged.

"..."

Qi Lin was speechless.

"Anyway, keep in touch."

Zhou Yu said as he stood up and walked towards his desk, "After all, the matter has come to this, we can only take one step at a time. Anyway, remember, if you find anything abnormal in your life, you can call me at any time." ...Also, I give this to you as a thank you gift for your help in solving the case."

Zhou Yu opened the drawer of his desk, took out a letter, and threw it to Qi Lin.

"what?"

Qi Lin raised his hand to catch the letter, opened it curiously and looked at it.
