"Are you the famous, renowned, and brave detective from Hong Kong Island?"
Inside the Dunling Police Station, a blond, blue-eyed policeman with a small mustache was looking Luo Wei up and down with his blue eyes.
Luo Wei grinned, revealing a row of snow-white teeth.
"I always thought that what I did was just a small contribution, but I didn't expect that my reputation would even be heard by my colleagues in Dunling."
"No, I don't dare to be your colleague."
The white policeman shook his head. "When we say you are a brave detective, we mean that you are very brave when you are against your own people. Two-thirds of the senior police officers in Hong Kong, from inspectors and above, have taken off their clothes because of the account book you handed in. Who doesn't know you?"
Luo Wei spread his hands and smiled bitterly, not knowing how to explain.
The white policeman didn't want to have too much to do with him, so he just took a pen and made a quick note in his notebook.
"Luo Wei, exiled for half a year, right?"
"Uh," Luo Wei scratched his face, "The order given to me by the higher-ups is to go to Scotland Yard for further training for half a year."
"it's the same."
The white policeman looked up and said expressionlessly, "Being transferred to Scotland Yard for further training is just like being transferred to guard a pond. There is no money to be made, so it's still exile."
"Then is there anything I should pay attention to? Or when do I have class?" Luo Wei changed the subject awkwardly.
"Attend class?"
The white policeman handed him a pass and said, "Just report to the police station once a week. As for the rest, you can live in the dormitory or travel around. It's up to you."
As he said this, he took out a rusty key from the drawer and threw it on the table.
"Because you are a senior detective, the police station has assigned you a high-class dormitory at 13 Wick Street. When you leave, just find a carriage to go there."
"Thank you. By the way, I want to ask..."
Luo Wei put the key into his pocket, and when he looked up again, he saw that the foreign policeman had crossed his legs and put them on the table, then covered his face with a newspaper and dozed off.
"Okay, I'm done asking."
Luo Wei could only turn around and leave the police station.
The weather in Dunling is always gloomy and cold, either raining or foggy. Luo Wei walked around before he found a lazy coachman on the street.
"Where are you going?" The groom glanced at him from under his hat.
"Well."
Luo Wei confirmed the business card again, "No. 13, Weike Street."
The groom made an "ok" gesture.
"Three dollars."
"Three?"
Luo Wei raised his voice and said, "Even if it's from the northernmost part of Dunling to the southernmost suburbs, it only costs two dollars at most. Do you think I don't understand?"
As he spoke, he looked at the rough-looking carriage in front of him and said, "It doesn't even have a awning, and you still want to charge me three dollars?"
“Why install an awning if there’s no rain?”
The groom yawned.
"I didn't say you don't understand, nor did I mean to deceive you, but going to Wicket Street, especially No. 13, is just this price. Even if you offer this price, there may not be anyone willing to take your order."
"Why, is it haunted?"
"more or less."
The groom waved at him, "Come up, I'll talk to you slowly."
Luo Wei pursed his lips, threw the two suitcases onto the carriage, then jumped on holding the railing. As soon as he sat firmly, the carriage began to move shakily.
"Actually, No. 13 Wick Street was originally the patrol dormitory of the Dunling Police Station. Six people lived in one apartment, and three bunk beds could be placed in it.
Originally it was just a temporary accommodation, but one year a patrolman living there went mad and killed eleven other people with a fire axe.
It was covered in blood, and it was said that the intestines were all over the floor. The forensic doctor stayed in there for three days, carried out more than a dozen sacks, and the horse was so smoked that it vomited.
From then on, no one dared to go there.”
"and many more."
Luo Wei raised his hand. "Isn't that a room for six people? How come there are twelve people in total, including that patrolman?"
The groom turned around and looked at Luo Wei with a strange expression.
"Are you lonely?"
"what?"
“I asked, are you lonely?”
Luo Wei was a little embarrassed, "Not often, just occasionally, when I lie down at night, I sometimes feel a little lonely."
"Then they are naturally the same as you."
The groom's eyes clearly indicated that Luo Wei was surprised by what he had seen.
"Even a virgin like you often thinks about women, not to mention those bastards. The night is long, shouldn't everyone find someone to have fun with? Then take over or swap and develop new fun?"
"Who says loneliness means thinking about women? It can't be...wait, how do you know I..."
Luo Wei didn't know where to start.
"Because you have a strong Yang energy."
The groom made up an excuse that is unique to Oriental people, "People like you who have strong yang energy are most suitable to live in a haunted house to ward off evil spirits."
“It seems that there is such a saying.”
Luo Wei nodded, "What happens next?"
"After that? Experts and detectives from Scotland Yard, America, and other places in Obarro all came, but no one could figure out why that patrolman suddenly had supernatural powers and could kill so many people by himself, and then he seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth and could not be found no matter how hard we tried.
Some people think he may have fled to some other place, Siberia, Africa, the Far East."
When mentioning the Far East, the groom glanced at Luo Wei intentionally or unintentionally, and then quickly looked away.
At this moment, Luo Wei didn't care what the groom was doing. He was just thinking about this unsolved case that had been shelved for many years.
Who on earth has the power to brutally kill eleven people with an axe and yet escape and disappear right under everyone's noses?
There is only one possibility, that is, the criminal is not human.
While Luo Wei was thinking about this, the groom suddenly turned around and took out a pistol from his arms.
"We're here, sir."
Luo Wei looked up at him. The groom had a sly smile on his face and his eyes were full of greed.
"That's not good, sir."
Luo Wei frowned. He had heard before that the security in Dunling was not very good. However, he did not expect to encounter bandits on his first visit.
"how?"
The groom spun the gun in his hand.
"You don't like guns?"
He took out a silver cross from his pocket and said, "If you don't like using guns, buy a cross. If you have a cross to protect yourself, those ghosts won't dare to approach you.
Just add one more dollar, God bless you."
"So you were planning to sell it to me."
Luo Wei sighed, pushed away the cross, waved at him, and signaled the groom to hand him the gun.
The groom happily handed the gun over, but Rowe did not take it immediately. Instead, he opened his coat. Inside the coat, the badge of the Royal Patrol was shining.
The groom's brows were suddenly knotted together, and he clasped his hands together and begged, "Sir, I don't want this fare. Can you just pretend that you didn't see anything? I still have a family to support." Luo Wei didn't respond. He took the gun from the groom, disassembled it into parts with a few clicks, took out the firing mechanism and threw it back to him, and handed him three coins at the same time.
"Possessing controlled firearms is very dangerous. It harms others and yourself. Remember not to bring them out in the future."
The groom looked at him, surprised and happy for a moment. He never expected that Luo Wei would let him go, and immediately thanked him profusely.
Luo Wei just waved his hand, looked at the black door of No. 13 Wicker Street, which was already occupied by ivy, and asked the coachman: "Can you help me move my luggage in?"
"I'm sorry, but I obey!"
The coachman dropped the two suitcases and drove the carriage away at the end of the street as if he was running for his life.
Luo Wei looked at his receding back and could only shake his head helplessly. Only then did he realize that he seemed to be the only resident in the entire Weike Street, and the curtains of other windows were closed.
"As a human being, you still have to rely on yourself."
Luo Wei took the key out of his pocket, inserted it into the keyhole and turned it. After the rusty lock made a few stubborn whistles, the door opened and dust fell all over Luo Wei.
The outside was old and dirty, but the inside was not as bad as Luo Wei thought.
Perhaps because this was a crime scene and needed to be cleaned, the inside was cleaned thoroughly. From the ceiling to the floor, there seemed to be signs of renovation, and even the furniture was new.
The place where the bunk beds were supposed to be has now become a sofa and a wardrobe.
This is the living room. It looks very clean except for a fine layer of dust.
As for further inside, there are the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom.
As mentioned before, this place was converted into a "high-end dormitory", and the white policeman did not lie to him about this.
Luo Wei threw the two suitcases on the ground and fell asleep on the bed.
A few days before coming to Dunling, he couldn't sleep for several days because of seasickness caused by the increasing wind and waves.
Even as powerful as Luosha, Luo Wei finally couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep.
After an unknown amount of time, when Luo Wei opened his eyes again, it was already night. The moonlight shone in from the window, casting a layer of silver glow on the house.
Someone is knocking on the door outside.
"coming."
Luo Wei rubbed his eyes and put his hand on the door handle.
boom!
The next second, several bullets passed through the door and hit his body. Blood immediately splattered on Luo Wei's body and he fell to the ground.
The sound of gunfire shattered the tranquility of the night, but the entire street was uninhabited, so it did not cause any noise.
Several gunmen walked in and took a look at Luo Wei, who was lying on the ground with his eyes wide open and his face pale.
"Is that all?" one of them asked.
"Isn't that enough? We are here to kill people, not to fight. Do you expect the other party to fight you on equal terms?"
"That too."
One of them squatted down and tried to take the badge from Luo Wei.
At this moment, Luo Wei grabbed the man's wrist and said calmly, "I used to think that the people of Dunling were very polite. For example, when they greet someone, they should knock on the door, take off their hats and say good day and good night, instead of shooting directly into the door."
"You're mistaken. The people who would do that are in Barry, not Dunling."
As he said this, he put the gun to Luo Wei's forehead.
"Really? Then it seems I've come to the wrong place."
With a whoosh, the gun in the man's hand broke into pieces.
The other people immediately raised their guns, but Luo Wei's speed was amazing. Before they could pull the trigger, several people were punched and fell heavily to the ground.
"Are you of blood descent?" Someone finally responded.
"Aren't you vampires?"
Luo Wei watched the depressions in their abdomens slowly recover and he knew where they came from.
"Tell me, why are you looking for an innocent person like me?"
"Innocent? You are not innocent at all!"
Following a few roars, the pupils of several people turned into the wild yellow color of wild beasts and their faces turned pale.
"Fell into a vampire's lair."
Luo Wei hooked his finger at them, "Come on!"
boom!
The first vampire used his limbs to exert force on the ground and shot towards Rowe like a cannonball, leaving several holes in its place.
Without even looking at it, Luo Wei stretched out his fist, and the vampire hit his fist right on top, and his head exploded like a watermelon.
pat!
With a battle axe whip kick, another vampire was kicked in the waist and fell heavily to the ground, unable to move.
Seeing this, the remaining two vampires looked at each other, and ran out without looking back. One climbed onto the roof, and the other ran on all fours along the street.
Luo Wei ignored the vampire who was paralyzed on the ground, grabbed a flower pot from the side and threw it over. The head of the vampire who was on all fours was smashed to pieces, and his uncontrolled body hit the wall, scraping off a whole row of bricks and tiles.
Just as he was about to give chase, he turned back to look at the unfortunate guy lying on the ground with a terrified look in his eyes.
"I'm going to find him, can you stay here?" Luo Wei asked.
The vampire's spine was broken by the blow, and he couldn't even nod at this moment. He could only blink his eyes to show that he would not run away.
"Thank you for your cooperation."
The next second, Luo Wei jumped onto the roof and chased the last vampire.
Seeing the two men getting closer and closer, Luo Wei reached out to grab the guy by the back of his neck.
At this moment, Luo Wei's arm suddenly exploded, turning into a bloody mist, with flesh and bones splattering out.
In the blood mist, a dart shot from nowhere and went straight for Lo Wei's head. It was this dart that shattered Lo Wei's arm in an instant with its extremely fast speed and terrible power.
Luo Wei groaned and knocked the dart away with his only remaining hand.
Then he saw a blood-red afterimage flying towards him, with a hand reaching for his neck.
Luo Wei leaned back in the air, blood spurted out from his neck and his trachea was shattered.
[Who on earth is this guy…]
Luo Wei's eyes turned silver-blue, and two streams of blood spurted out from the soles of his feet. As if he was on a rocket, his body quickly fled away, avoiding the next attack on his head and crashing into a window.
When the red afterimage chased after him, Luo Wei had disappeared, leaving only a large pool of blood.
……
Two days later, Chief Hermann, who was in charge of all intelligence work in Dunling, came to the post office.
"I have to look over all the letters sent from Dunling to the Far East," he said, tapping the table.
"There are only a few today, and we will be boarding the ship soon."
The teller spread out several letters and placed them in front of the general manager.
Hermann randomly pulled out a letter, which was sent to Hong Kong Island.
Ms. Ma Xiaoxiu:
It’s nice to see you in person. I hope you are doing well over there.
I have seen my aunt in Dunling. She is in good condition, but she has gained a lot of weight recently.
I was doing well in Dunling. My aunt welcomed me warmly. She said she hoped you could come over too. She could find you a clerk job in the stock exchange, which was a good job.
If you are going to come, come as soon as possible.
Remember to bring a long windbreaker, it's very cold here, it rains all day and there's no sun.
——Wesley (End of this chapter)
