Chapter 77 - Another dead
“…According to the news we got, people in New Orleans, Louisiana are constantly being attacked by vampires. This incident…”
News about vampires is being broadcast on TV again. This time, a woman named Sarah Newlin “debated” with South Flangen.
This person named Sarah Newlin is the wife of Pastor Newlin. The two lead an organization called the Sun Church and have been very active in front of the media recently.
The Sun Church actively struggled with vampires, and soon after vampires took the initiative to stand in front of the public, it became a leading organization in the crowd against vampires.
“I’m going back, Ben.”
Terry walked over to say goodbye to Benny, carrying a big bag of trash and left through the back door.
In the morning, Benny and Renee sent Jason to the hospital. When the examination results came out, it was already afternoon, and after informing Su Qi to come to the hospital to take care of Jason, the two left one after another.
Benny, who came back, wanted to find Hope, but Hope was still not there, so Benny had to go back to the store and stare at the boring show.
In recent days, the Sun Church has had a fierce quarrel with the vampire spokesperson Nan. Almost every media will invite them as guests, which also makes them quickly become popular and occupy the screen.
Benny was tired of looking at the faces of these two women. He turned off the TV boredly and sent Jonathan away. Just as he was about to close the store, he saw Hope’s car parked at the door.
“Man, it’s not easy to want to see you!”
Benny joked with a smile.
Hope walked into the restaurant, sat down at the table, took off his hat and yelled at Benny, “Quick! Serve me! After driving for a day, I’m going to starve to death.” “
There happened to be leftovers from the evening meal. Benny returned to the kitchen to bring it to Hope. Hope didn’t dislike it, so he gobbled up the leftovers.
“You can’t make time for Adele’s funeral in the morning. I made a eulogy for you.”
Hope paused for a while, and continued to eat if nothing had happened, but Benny on the side could clearly feel that his mood was very depressed.
“The murderer of Adele, I have a few suspects.”
Benny gave the eulogy at the funeral and his observations, plans and accounts, and listed the five suspects to Hope.
Hope wiped a handful of rice grains from his beard and put it in his mouth, glanced at Benny’s list, and asked suspiciously.
“Rene?”
“These four are still possible. Rene is a down-to-earth man, isn’t it possible?”
Benny approached and asked, “Do you remember when Rene came to Hawkins?”
“I don’t know, it should be about a year ago.”
“But why does it feel to me that Rene seems to have lived in Hawkins since he was a child?” Benny reminded, “What about Rene’s past? We don’t know it, but it all feels like it’s not that important.”
Hope drank the soup from the bowl, slapping his belly, and leaned back in the chair with satisfaction.
“The town has developed rapidly over the past year, attracting many strangers. It’s no surprise. Just like Sam.”
“Sam?” Benny felt a little strange, how did he get involved with Sam.
“The last time I came back from dealing with Wendig in the woods of the back mountain, I checked Sam’s information at the police station and found that Sam also fits your suspicion goals. There is no past, no one knows, never mentions the past, no parents or family , And no friends, just appear here suddenly.”
“The only thing we can learn is that Sam Mallot is the adopted child of the Mallots.”
Benny was a little surprised. Don’t say or don’t know, so that he discovered that Sam, who feels ordinary on weekdays, seems to be indeed mysterious.
However, how could a suspected murderer be comparable to Sam!
“At least Sam didn’t smile provocatively at me at Adele’s funeral.” Benny said unwillingly.
“That might just be a friendly and polite smile.”
“Whose friendly and polite smile is like this?”
With that said, Benny began to imitate Rene, with his mouth tilted upwards, his eyes turned slightly upwards, and he glanced at the person with his nostrils facing the sky.
“Let’s talk about these things tomorrow. I’m going to be exhausted. I’ll go home first and talk about them tomorrow.”
Hope was full and drank. He waved his hand and got up to leave. As soon as he got in the car, Noah rushed out from the police station opposite and stopped in front of the car.
“Hope, another corpse was found.”
“boarding!”
When it comes to business matters, Hope has been a lot more energetic, and after giving an order, he asked
“Where?”
“Jason Stackhouse’s house.” Noah quickly introduced, “Jason reported the case. He found his girlfriend Amy Bray died on the bed.”
Benny and Hope looked at each other, opened the door and sat in. Hope turned on the siren and turned the front of the car, followed other police cars, and drove all the way towards Jason’s house.
“How do I think there is a problem with our previous speculation?” When the three got out of the car at the door of Jason’s house, Hope whispered as he walked in, “This murderer made it clear that he was committing crimes around Jason.”
Now there are four dead, three of whom are Jason’s girlfriend and Adele is Jason’s grandmother.
Hope seems right to say so.
Now even Benny was not sure.
The police officer had pulled the cordon outside the house, and Jason collapsed and leaned against the truck, feeling at a loss. The scene got busy in an orderly manner.
Benny and Hope walked into the bedroom and glanced at Amy Bray who was lying on the bed. There was an obvious bruise on his neck. Benny stretched out his finger and compared it. The bruise was about **** wide.
“It should be a belt.”
Glancing at Hope, Benny spoke.
Hope turned Amy’s neck to look around and then whispered, “No bite marks.”
After another inspection, he waved his hand to let the policeman put it in the body bag and carried it away. Benny and Hope wandered around the room.
“Counting members, this is the fifth one.”
Hope was a little worried, seeing that there was no one around, he began to spit out bitterness at Benny.
“The member’s disappearance alarmed the governor. Today, I just listened to the group of politicians’ speeches for the whole morning. I didn’t mention the key points or the personnel arrangement. Let us find them as soon as possible, and find them as soon as possible, SHIT!”
Regarding Hope’s complaints, Benny took the left ear in and right ear out to deal with, listening carefully on the face, in fact, looking around the room, and then he simply started to get started.
“Don’t mess around, this is the scene of the crime, man.” Hope noticed Benny’s absent-mindedness, reminded with dissatisfaction, took out a pair of gloves from his pocket and handed it over.
Benny pinched a beautifully shaped pocket watch with his gloves. A line of letters is engraved on the case of the pocket watch, which is a little fuzzy.
“MYLOVEL…”
The two looked at each other, Benny Anton switched on and off, and the pocket watch opened, revealing a delicate picture.
“Do you know these two people?”
Seeing the stranger in the photo, Benny asked.
Hope stared at the smiling little girl in the photo and frowned and thought about it.
“This seems to be the congressman’s wife and daughter!”
