I’m a Detective In the Marvel World

Chapter 77 Digging the Grave

With a "Hula", Xie Lun suddenly poked his head out of the water.

"He's out, pull him up quickly."

A pair of strong arms stretched out and pulled Xie Lun onto the boat. Before he could sit still, Xie Lun lay down on the ground, and opened his mouth to spit out a large stream of foul-smelling black oil and water.

John patted Sheron on the back, and said to Carly and Wade in a deep voice, "Row the boat, let's leave this lake."

Carly and Wade nodded, and hurriedly rowed with oars. When they were about to reach the pier, a vortex suddenly appeared on the lake behind for no reason, and a moment later, wax oil in a semi-liquid state gushed out from the center of the vortex.

"Hurry up……"

Xie Lun, who came back to his senses, looked at the wax rising into the sky with an ugly expression on his face. Looking around, his eyes suddenly fell on the theater that had been burnt to ruins by the raging flames. With a thought in his mind, he hurriedly shouted: "Edward, Gerald is chasing after you, if you don't show up, Jamie will be his! "

The theater, where the fire had been gradually extinguished, suddenly burst into raging flames again. In this sea of ​​flames, a graceful figure slowly walked out: "Jerrod, how dare you invade my world?"

Although it is a female body, but the voice is extremely thick, obviously a man's voice.

Jamie, who had been lying on the boat panting all the time, was shocked, and looked at Ella in the sea of ​​fire in disbelief: "Edward...Father?"

"Shit!"

Xie Lun uttered a vulgar word, and before the boat stopped, he grabbed Jamie and jumped onto the pier, quickly sprinting towards the scarlet sports car that was still parked there.

"Sir, I don't think you're coming back."

"Don't worry, if I die, I will drag you along."

"That's when we meet in hell together."

Xie Lun and Tina spat at each other, inserted the car keys, started the car, and rushed to the dock, "John, hurry up..."

Carly and Wade had just taken two steps when they suddenly fell to the ground clutching their stomachs and moaned in pain. John had no choice but to drag them to the front of the sports car, get into the car, and Sharon turned around and sped away.

John poked his head out, looked at the lake that had already set off monstrous waves, and asked in surprise, "What's going on?"

Sheron looked at Jamie, who closed his eyes and nodded slightly. Xie Lun said, "It's just two scumbags!"

"During the Civil War one hundred and forty years ago, a southern soldier named Gerald was seriously injured on the battlefield. Later, her wife found him and took him away. Although he healed his injury, but since then become demented."

"In order to escape the flames of war, her wife brought Gerald to this remote town. In order to support the family, the wife, who is a puppeteer, began to perform puppet performances in the town theater. Because she is very beautiful, the dolls are also The production is very sophisticated, so it quickly became famous in the small town."

"However, Edward, the mayor of the small town at the time, was greedy for the beauty of Gerald's wife, and broke into their home one night and ruined her wife. When all this happened, Gerald was by the side, but he was indifferent... ..."

Speaking of this, Xie Lun took a deep breath, as if suppressing the anger in his heart: "In order to ensure that the two of them can stay in the town afterwards, the wife acquiesced to the mayor's atrocities. As for Gerald's disregard, she I think it's because my brain is broken. But no one will know that Gerald's stupidity is just faking."

After driving along the road for five or six minutes, the car turned sharply and drove into a remote road.

"At the beginning, Gerald played stupid so that he would not go to the battlefield. Later, he played stupid more to avoid his wife's painful eyes. So in this kind of life, he and his wife lived in the small town. In twenty years, because of the double torture of spirit and body, my wife who has just turned 50 is already gray-haired and senile."

"In these years,

Cases of missing children continued to occur in the small town, and the residents of the small town had no clues no matter how they searched. Until one day, the mayor Edward announced that Jerrod had reported on his wife, who kidnapped the child for the purpose of making a real doll. "

"The angry town residents, led by Edward, tied the woman to a cross and burned her alive. But during the burning process, Gerald suddenly sank into the lake together with the cross. After that, neither The bodies of his couple were salvaged from the lake, and the bones of the missing children were not found."

The car stopped suddenly, and a brick wall covered with ivy appeared in front of everyone.

Sheron pulled out the car keys and got out of the car, took out two shovels from the trunk, and threw them to John: "Come on, let's dig out those bodies now."

"What about them?"

John pointed to Carly and Wade, who were already angry.

"I can't help them now, they must have eaten the food or water in the town of Ambrose."

Sharon strode over the brick wall, John shook his head and hurriedly followed. After climbing over the wall, John saw clearly that the inside turned out to be a cemetery almost covered by weeds.

"Ella... Ella... Ella... Got it!"

Xie Lun found a tombstone, looked at the black-and-white photo on it that was completely different from Mary Shaw, picked up the shovel and started digging.

John also hurried to help: "Whose tomb is this?"

"Jamie's his real mother."

"what?"

Xie Lun explained while digging: "Everyone thinks that the murderer is Mary Shaw, but the real murderer is the mayor Edward. He has been secretly researching black magic, and his purpose is to live forever."

"Reminded by Mary Xiao's superb puppet, he came to his senses and began to make a puppet from a real person, and then transferred his soul to the puppet to achieve the goal of longevity."

"Later, Jerrod discovered this secret. He, who also wanted to live forever, did not expose Edward. Instead, the two worked hand in hand to study the technology together. It's just that Edward used dolls, while Jerrod used wax figures."

"It's a pity that no matter how they develop newer technologies, neither of them can produce a satisfactory puppet. Once again by chance, Edward proposed that the two cooperate, and Jerrod hit it off."

"After a long period of experimentation and running-in, they finally succeeded in making a perfect puppet. Using the puppet mechanism as the bone and the wax figure technology as the skin, it is no exaggeration to say that it is almost exactly the same as a real person. But the only disadvantage is that, It is said that a puppet can only hold one soul."

"Just as Edward and Jerrod were fighting hard for the puppet's ownership, Mary Shaw discovered their secret. In order to kill people, Edward planted everything on Mary Shaw's head and forced Gerald testified."

"Jerrod didn't expect that Mary Shaw didn't tell the truth from the beginning to the end, even if he lit the cross in the end. He, who had been ignorant of his conscience all his life, was so ashamed at the last moment that he threw himself into the sea of ​​fire and died at the bottom of the lake with Mary Shaw."

"However, Jerrod did not expect that his black magic would be fulfilled after his death. A different space extended under the lake, in which was the town of Ambrose he had imagined, and his soul would be trapped in it forever. In that small town..."

Before finishing speaking, the shovel touched a hard object. Xie Lun bent down and stretched out his hand, and pulled it out forcefully, a heavy stone slab was lifted abruptly by him.
