I’m a Detective In the Marvel World

One hundred and forty years ago, the small town of Vince in Farland.

"Mrs. Mary Shaw, your performance just now was very good." A middle-aged man showed great hospitality to the beautiful woman in front of him, "I don't know if I have time later, can you have a drink?"

The beautiful woman who was almost exactly like Ella said with a embarrassed smile: "Mayor Edward, I'm sorry, I already have an appointment tonight."

A glimmer of gloom flashed in the eyes of the middle-aged man: "Really? That's really unfortunate."

***

On the opposite side of the lake, in a very inconspicuous dilapidated wooden house. Mary Xiao looked at the young man in front of her lovingly. From Mary Xiao's perspective, the man was handsome and handsome.

But once you look from the other side, you will find that this man has a large scar on his face, which seems to have suffered a serious injury.

"Jerrod, it's safe here, we don't have to worry about going to the battlefield anymore. Don't you like wax figures, you can study and make wax figures here at ease..."

Mary Shaw laughed softly, but the young man named Jerrod didn't seem to hear it, and drew a pen on the paper in a crazy way: "This is the town I designed, Ambrose, It's all made of wax, yes, I designed it..."

Although Gerald ignored him, Mary Xiao still had a happy smile on his face.

Until... the wooden door was kicked open.

The middle-aged man named Edward walked in from the outside drunkenly: "Bichi, just because of this ugly monster, how dare you reject me?"

Seeing the man approaching every step of the way, Mary Shaw backed away in horror: "Please, Mayor Edward...Jerrod, save me..."

During the struggle, the woman snatched the pistol from Edward's waist and forced Edward to retreat. Looking at the black muzzle of the gun in front of him, Edward sneered disdainfully: "Do you dare to shoot? Mary Shaw, don't forget, I allowed you to stay in this town. Without me, you and this fool don't even think about it." If you stay here, you can only leave here like a dog, and return to the battlefield where the war is raging..."

He suddenly grabbed Gerald's neck and said with a grin: "Look at this wretch, imagine what he would look like if he left the town."

"Mary, dear Mary, it's not easy to live a stable life these days, let alone a happy love, you have to pay a price."

Looking at the middle-aged man's devilish smile, the woman's hands trembled violently. After a while, the pistol fell powerlessly to the ground.

The man showed a smug smile, strode forward, picked up the woman and threw her on the bed.

Amidst the screams, Gerald stood there the whole time, murmuring "Ambrose" in his mouth, but the pair of eyes shone with an unknown light.

***

On the pier, Mary Shaw was already gray-haired, wearing a long black dress, and was firmly tied to a standing cross. In front of her were countless angry town residents holding various weapons.

Edward, who was potbellied and also full of white hair, walked out of the crowd tremblingly on crutches, and said through gritted teeth, "Mary Xiao, Mary Xiao, our town kindly took you two in, I didn't expect you to be like this Give back to our town."

"If it wasn't for Gerald's report, we would never have thought that you were the mastermind behind kidnapping children for so many years."

While speaking, an old man who looked like a farmer was pushed out from the crowd, holding a puppet in his hand, standing beside Edward tremblingly.

"Don't be afraid, Jerrod, although you are Mary Xiao's husband, we won't hurt you because you made a good report.

but……"

Edward took a lighted torch and handed it to Gerald: "In order to make your wife pay for the sins she committed, you need to light this fire yourself!"

"Ambrose...Ambrose..."

Gerald just repeated the word.

Edward couldn't help it, he stuffed the torch into Gerald's hand abruptly, then grabbed his hand, and threw the torch and the puppet under the cross together.

The cross, which had already been piled up with kindling materials, immediately burst into raging flames.

The scorching heat forced everyone to retreat one after another. Soon, with the fire dragon boiling, the sea of ​​fire rose into the sky. However, Mary Xiao, who has not spoken since then, spoke quietly in the sea of ​​flames:

"Be careful of the stare from Mary Shaw;

She has no children, only dolls;

If you see her, don't scream;

Or she'll tear your mouth open and tear your tongue out! "

The weird singing voice hovered around everyone's ears like a nightmare. Seeing the blazing flames, no one dared to speak for a while.

At this moment, Jerrod, who had been mad all the time, suddenly screamed in horror: "I was wrong, Mary, I was wrong... I'll come right away, let's go to Ambrose together..."

With screams, he rushed towards the burning cross.

No one dared to stop him, but he could only watch Gerald rush into the sea of ​​fire and fall into the lake with the cross in his arms.

From then on, no matter whether it was Gerald or Mary Shaw, no one was seen when they were born, and no corpse was seen when they died!

Only the horrible nursery rhyme has been passed down from the small town of Farravens from generation to generation.

The car roared and flew out of the path, passed through the grass, and rushed heavily into the lake. Soon, icy lake water poured in from the fallen car window.

Xie Lun turned his head to look at John and the three with livid faces, and said in a deep voice, "Trust me, this is the only way to go back."

The three of John clutched the armrest tightly, and none of them could speak. On the contrary, Jamie, who had passed out, woke up at some point, forced to look at Xie Lun with a bitter smile and said, "From life to death, from death to life!"

Soon the lake water completely submerged the two cars, and the bubbles rolled. It didn't take long for everyone except Xie Lun to hold their breath. Breathing involuntarily through his mouth and nose, he inhaled the icy lake water in an instant.

Seeing other people clutching their throats one by one, struggling desperately, but in the process of struggling, they gradually disappeared one by one. Xie Lun breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the path he had found was indeed correct.

But with his super endurance, his breath holding time is far beyond ordinary people. It's been five or six minutes in the water, and he still doesn't feel panicked. In desperation, Xie Lun had no choice but to open his mouth and let the lake water pour into his nasal cavity.

But Sheron soon discovered that this didn't work either. Although the lake water poured into his throat, he was very uncomfortable, and his lungs were very painful, but he didn't feel the feeling of death.

A high physique and a long blood bar are not a good thing at certain times.

Xie Lun suddenly opened his eyes wide, and he was keenly aware that something had changed in the lake around him.

To put it simply, it is oil mixed with water. Gradually, more and more oil was poured into Xie Lun's mouth along the lake water.

"Damn damn..."

Xie Lun felt that his throat seemed to be sealed by something sticky. Even if he wanted to shut up, he couldn't close it, so he could only struggle feebly.

"The mouse that ruined my good deeds, I caught you!"

A stuttering but eerie voice rang in Xie Lun's ear.

"Do not!"

In Xie Lun's increasingly blurred vision, a white-haired old woman in a long black dress suddenly appeared. Her ferocious and terrifying face carried a very calm expression.

Then, just like in the museum, she stretched out her hand...
