Tokyo Police

Vol 16 Chapter 49: 1 other dead

At night, the forest in the mountains is surprisingly quiet, but in this quiet environment, if you listen carefully, you can hear many sounds that you can't notice during the day.

"Cuckoo! Cuckoo!"

This is the call of an owl.

"Ow! Ow!"

This may be the sound of a wild cat!

"Ah... it hurts! It hurts!"

This... um... is actually Lin Xiuyi's scream!

When Lin Xiuyi finally woke up from the frightened faint, he realized that he was lucky to be alive. So after a short period of joy, Lin Xiuyi thought about trying to get up from the ground. However, this thought had only just been conveyed to the body, and his body protested to him fiercely with the severe pain all over his body.

After struggling for a long time, Lin Xiuyi finally pulled his hand out from under his body. Immediately afterwards, he slowly groped his body, wanting to check his injuries in the dark. From the head to the chest, and then the limbs, fortunately, although there are indeed many wounds on his body, they should be only skin injuries.

After Lin Xiuyi confirmed that he was not seriously injured, the intense pain suddenly became more acceptable, so Lin Xiuyi began to slowly roll over from the ground, and then He looked up at the sky and began to think about how to escape from here.

"Alas... the night in the mountains is really a bit cold!"

Lin Xiu sighed inwardly, then gropingly picked up a medium-length branch from the ground. After he trimmed the branch in his hand a little, he used it to slowly prop himself up from the ground. Then in the hazy moonlight, looking for the next path.

Fortunately, Lin Xiu didn't fall into the depths of the woods when he rolled off the cliff. So he can still see the situation outside the woods. This provided a lot of convenience for his actions at night. In this way, Lin Xiuyi walked for a short distance along the edge of the woods and the cliff. Just as he was trying to get out of the woods, suddenly, his feet stumbled, and he didn't know what tripped him to the ground again.

"Ah... ah... it's really difficult!"

Lin Xiuyi felt a little annoyed and touched his feet. When he picked up the stone he stumbled upon just now, under the bright moonlight, a gloomy skull was held in his hand by Lin Xiuyi.

"Eh? This is..."

I saw that I actually touched a human skull. After Lin Xiuyi experienced the initial surprise, he began to have great curiosity in his heart. Unexpectedly, there was a corpse hidden not far from the cliff where he fell. For a while, Lin Xiuyi actually forgot that he was going to leave here.

"Uh...I didn't expect to meet you in this way, poor fellow!"

As Lin Xiu spoke, he placed the skull solemnly in front of him with both hands, and then folded his hands together and silently prayed for the deceased. A few minutes later, when Lin Xiuyi opened his eyes again, he slowly began to look for other parts of the corpse in the dim moonlight.

This is a skeletonized corpse, which means that the deceased died at least a year ago. Lin Xiuyi carefully removed the fallen leaves covering the deceased's body, and then saw the corpse's clothes before death from the half-rotted clothes.

"Looks like it was killed in winter!"

Although under normal circumstances, the scene where the body was found should be handed over to the forensics class, but now Lin Xiuyi couldn't notify his colleagues. All he could do was to first look up what was on the corpse to see if there was anything that could prove the identity of the deceased, or something that could help Lin Xiuyi get out of here. With this intention in mind, Lin Xiuyi carefully searched the area around the white bone, and soon... Lin Xiuyi found a new discovery under the corpse. A small bag made of tarps.

"This is……"

Lin Xiuyi looked at the small tarpaulin bag in his hand with some doubts, and then carefully opened it. Then, he found that in addition to what looked like a notebook, there were a few other things that looked like a notebook. Very soft paper. In this way, Lin Xiuyi struggled to open the notepad under the moonlight, and then carefully identified the handwriting on it.

"One day, the deep treacherous will gradually reveal its true shape; although sin can be concealed for a while, it will inevitably show its ugly face in the end. May you be happy!"

"Is this... 'King Lear'?"

Seeing the words filled with meaning recorded in the notebook, Lin Xiuyi couldn't help but become extremely curious about the identity of the deceased, but it was night time and it was really difficult to read this notebook. This made Lin Xiuyi feel extremely depressed. So, he could only dispel his curiosity to find out the identity of the deceased now. Then he started to lean on the adjacent big tree and slowly sat down.

Now, there is definitely no way to go back to the Valley of Light. And he accidentally found another body of unknown origin in the jungle at the foot of the mountain. And when he thought of where the corpse appeared and what he was carrying ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Lin Xiuyi felt an uncontrollable excitement in his heart. He felt that this white bone at the foot of the mountain must have a lot of connection with the Church of the Truth of Light.

I don't know if it was because too many things happened during the day, but Lin Xiuyi quickly fell asleep beside this white bone. When he woke up again, it was already early morning.

When Lin Xiuyi took out the notebook again from the tarpaulin bag, he realized that the signature on the handwriting was impressively written... Ninety-nine Xingchang's name. Seeing this, Lin Xiuyi immediately opened the notebook like a treasure.

Just like what Lin Xiuyi discovered last night, the title page of the notebook contains the passage from Shakespeare's famous tragedy "King Lear". Although Lin Xiu didn't know much about drama, he still knew what the drama "King Lear" was about. This is a tragedy about a child who kills his father. When Lin Xiuyi saw the content behind this notebook, he couldn't help but feel extremely shocked.

"Is this...the Church of the Truth of Light does not want people to know about it? The so-called miracles are just some techniques improved by magic."
