I have two principles as a human being:
1. Never lie.
2. Never believe anything anyone says, including myself.
“Sir, I must point out that your second principle contradicts the ...
His Excellency Mercius, First-Class Inquisitor of the Grand Inquisition, has gone missing.
Strictly speaking, it cannot be called missing, it's just that this adult went out alone to investigate a case and did not come back all night.
The people at the Law Enforcement Bureau were quite anxious because not only did they receive a report that five more residents had died in Yongzhan Town, they also discovered that a criminal in jail had escaped!
Even the secret agent from the Grand Inquisition who came to visit him yesterday was never seen again.
The lawyers were like ants on hot pot, constantly asking to see the judges who were traveling with Moqius, but the judges were helpless.
Because the last order given to them by their superiors was to wait for him to come back at the Law Enforcement Bureau.
This timing is really too embarrassing.
You say the person disappeared, but he was only absent for one night.
Ordinary people still have time to go out and have a good night, let alone a judge who is investigating a case.
Of course, this is not to say that Lord Moqius went out to have fun, it’s just that investigating the case takes more time.
But if you say the person hasn't disappeared, it seems that no case has ever been investigated for such a long time.
Generally speaking, the moment a suspect is encountered, the investigation, trial and execution may be over, not to mention the end.
In short, the disappearance of Moqius and the decree he left behind plunged everyone into a quagmire, making them anxious and miserable.
The town is once again gripped by the fear that the killer is on the run for revenge killings.
It was not until midnight on the fourth day, when the five bodies that had been moved back to the archives room inexplicably woke up from the archives room and were tortured by the frightened law enforcement officers, that everyone realized that the deaths of the five people were a prank.
Good news: No murder occurred!
Bad news: Lord Mercius is indeed missing.
Since there is no case to investigate, where did this adult go?
After all, the judge came from the Grand Inquisition, so he kept his composure and firmly believed that Lord Moqius must be busy with something, so he just waited.
Besides, in Yongzhan Town, no one can threaten your safety.
But when the staff of the Law Enforcement Bureau discovered that "When Fear Comes" had also disappeared, leaving only two strange corpses in the sealed room, the judges could no longer sit still.
Yongzhan Town was in chaos again.
It was at this time, on the morning of the fifth day after all the officials had not slept all night, that the five drunkards who had almost frightened the law enforcement bureau were released from the police station on the grounds of innocence.
Their bodies were covered with scars, and it was obvious that they had been severely tortured.
But there was no anger on their faces, instead there was a sense of happy satisfaction.
"Hahahaha what a bunch of idiots, we fooled everyone!"
"No matter how heavy the whipping is, it can't cover up the fear in their hearts. Did you see that? Director Wiki's face turned green. The most important thing is that we are innocent, and they can't do anything to us!"
"Cool!"
"I didn't expect this medicine to be so effective. Where is the pharmacist? Does anyone know where he is?"
"He seems to be staying at the inn?"
The five people stopped, looked at each other meaningfully, and then ran towards the hotel.
Apparently, there's no greater pleasure than taking five more pills.
As long as they have "Drunken Life, Dreamy Death", the entire Yongzhan Town will be their entertainment venue.
However, when the five drunkards asked around and finally arrived outside the pharmacist's room, a thin hotel waiter pushed the door open and walked out.
As soon as he came out, he saw five big men surrounding the door, their eyes shining with excitement, and he was shocked.
Instinctively, he hugged his hands and feet and leaned against the door frame, shivering.
"Hey, where are the people inside?"
"Is the pharmacist in there? Where did he go?"
"Are you here to clean the room? Did you see anything? Is there a drug called 'Drunkenness and Dreaming Death' in it?"
"Forget it, get out of the way, let's go in and look for it!"
Just as a few people were about to go in, the waiter suddenly burst into tears.
"It wasn't me, it wasn't me, wuwuwuwu, he was like that as soon as I went in, it really wasn't me!"
Several big men were startled by the sudden crying, but in a flash they walked past the waiter, opened the door and went in.
When they entered the house, they found a charred corpse lying in front of the bed.
The unburned pieces of clothing on the charred corpse showed that he seemed to be the pharmacist who sold them the 'Drunken Life and Dream of Death' the night before.
The drunkards stood there in a daze, dumbfounded.
"What...what's going on?"
"Dead? Hey man, you did it?"
"You killed the pharmacist. How did you kill him? What did you use? Praise [Prosperity] and hand over the method of killing. I won't expose you."
"Don't just stand there, hurry up and find out if there is any medicine left!"
“Wuwuwu, it wasn’t me. I was about to come in to clean up when I found his body. I was so scared that I didn’t dare to say anything… Wuwuwu.”
Several big men rummaged around the room for a long time but did not find any finished drugs. Instead, bottles and materials used for experiments were scattered all over the floor. Many of them reacted under the ruins of the burnt bed, forming a pile of colorful things.
"Hiss—it's over. The medicine is gone."
"Hey, someone really died. Should we report it to the law enforcement bureau?"
"Report it, why not? Since someone really died, it's better than us faking it. Isn't the news here, brothers? "
"Report, report quickly, buddy, go call the law enforcement officers and tell them that the escaped killer has committed crimes again in the hotel. He has been reborn from the ashes and has started his own road of revenge!"
Hearing that the body was the result of revenge by the escaped murderer, the waiter became even more frightened. His legs went weak and he collapsed at the door.
