MTL - Superman Delta’s Life Diary-Chapter 521

Just as he was leaving the station, he whispered, "I didn't expect that there are people with blue hair in this world."

Chapter 780: One Turn Detective Novel

Xingguangyi is not very sensitive to the matter of hair color now, because he has traveled to a lot of worlds, and seen a lot of transmigrators. Blue and gold, in addition to two-color, three-color, gradient, and even dynamic gradient.

So it's just a mere blue hair, and it didn't attract Xingguang Yi's attention.

It's something else that bothers Starlight at the moment. The bus to Little Hangleton has been a long time coming.

The speed of trains in this era is already beyond Xingguang Yi's expectations, and it has taken a lot of time to reach nearby towns from London.

If you wait according to the time on the bus itinerary, it is estimated that you will reach the village of Little Hangleton in the evening.

Xingguang stood next to a relatively simple ticket office and looked up at the bus itinerary posted on it.

There is only one bus to Little Hangleton, the most recent one leaves half an hour ago, and the next one leaves two hours later.

"Oh, what should I do?"

Xingguang scratched his head, he didn't want to delay until two hours later.

He left the ticket office, found an empty place, and secretly took out his small electric car from the laboratory space.

In fact, Xingguang Yi had actually considered turning into Ultraman Delta and flying from London to Little Hangleton.

But when he thought that this might be a task left by the unscrupulous old man Deng, Xingguangyi could only choose to go there in a normal way, in case he missed any key clues in the middle.

It's like a player who especially wants to skip the plot when playing the game, but is afraid that there is important information in the plot.

It can only be said that the novice guide for this test set by Mr. Deng is too bad, and he must give a bad review when he goes back.

Xingguang felt that it was not cheating when he took out the small tram and rode it all the way. He should also be able to see some important information along the way.

So he left town on the trolley and headed for the village of Little Hangleton.

As soon as he drove out of town, Xingguang Yi felt somewhat regretful.

I don't know if it's just that this section of the journey is so dilapidated, or whether the roads between the British cities and the countryside are not very well built in this era.

After driving out of town for a while, Starlight ate a mouthful of ashes.

"Cough, cough, blah blah blah..."

As soon as Xingguang spat out the ash in his mouth, he had to take out a mask and put it on his face.

Wearing a mask and riding a tram should logically be quite handsome, but the problem is that Xingguang Yi's tram is the style of a little sheep, and it doesn't look handsome at all.

When they were about to reach Little Hangleton Village, the road suddenly improved. The villagers should be responsible for repairing this road.

Little Hangleton is not a small village, although it is not as big as those big towns.

Before entering the village, Xingguang stopped in a place where no one was around, and put away the mask and the small tram. The shape of his small tram is rare in this era. He also met other people along the way Travelers, these people are more or less curious about his little tram.

After putting away all the things that did not match this era, Xingguang walked into Little Hangleton Village. The overall construction of this village was much better than Xingguang imagined.

In addition to the fact that the village itself was really well built, the dusty and dilapidated dirt road before also lowered Xingguang Yi's psychological expectations. The combination of these two made Xingguang Yi feel that this village is quite good.

Xingguang first thought that there was a fatal case, and the police would stay here for a while, but he walked around the village for a long time and didn't see any place where the cordon was drawn, let alone the police.

No way, Xingguang only asked the residents of the village.

He first found the children playing in the village. He took all kinds of snacks and asked these children about the recent events in the village.

As a result, after these children grabbed Xingguang Yi's snacks, they dispersed in a hurry. One or two of them were particularly naughty, and turned their heads to make a grimace at Xingguang Yi, as if they were waiting to see Xingguang Yi's angry appearance.

"Really, the folk customs are so simple, is this Gotham City?" Xingguang scratched his head and said helplessly.

But in the face of human cubs, he couldn't get angry at all.

But not angry, not angry, he must let these children know that it is wrong to do so.

The children who were laughing and running away suddenly felt as if someone had kicked their buttocks. They all stumbled and almost fell.

Just when these children were suspicious, Xingguang shouted from behind: "Hey! You don't think you can leave safely after playing with me, right?"

These children looked back subconsciously, and found that the foreigner who had been tricked by them just now had a very scary make-up on his face, and there was a layer of distorted light and shadow in front of him, which made his figure look different. become equally distorted.

"Wow~~~"

I don't know which child called out first, and the rest of the children shouted and ran away. Even so, they were still clutching the various snacks they had just obtained from Xingguang Yi.

Seeing these children flee, Xingguang laughed heartlessly.

"Hahahahaha..."

Xingguang smiled and took out a wipe to wipe off the makeup on his face.

Don't say that the makeup style of the Yabo people is really weird, it's better to use it to scare people, but there is a risk of being guillotined by Ott.

After laughing, Xingguangyi walked on the village road again and again. There were not many people on the road. Xingguangyi guessed that the people in the village had not finished their work and returned to the village.

As he was walking, Xingguang suddenly saw a tavern on the side of the road. This may be due to the difference in culture. There are not all shops in this village, but there is actually a large-scale tavern.

The name of this tavern is also quite individual, called the Hanged Ghost Tavern.

Tucao returns to Tucao, but there is no progress at the moment, and a place like a tavern to exchange various information can just help Xingguang Yi.

As soon as Starlight opened the door of the tavern, the bell on the door jingled.

Although it was still daytime, there were already five or six drinkers in the tavern, one or two of them were drunk and smelled of alcohol.

As soon as a drinker saw Xingguang walk in, he said, "Hey, this place is not for a kid like you. Come back to the bar in two years."

Xingguang smiled, and it was the first time that someone said that because of his baby face.

But there is nothing wrong with saying this, after all, he is only over 4,700 years old, and he is still a minor.

The drinker may be well-intentioned, but his words caused laughter from the other drinkers.

Xingguangyi didn't care too much, he went straight to the front of the bar.

Before he could speak, the bartender in the bar said, "Hello, little guy, this is really not a place you can come, so go back first, I won't sell you wine. If it's normal, I might I'll give you a free glass of juice or milk. But unfortunately, there's only wine left today, so I'm sorry."

The bartender looked to be in his forties, with a thin build, thick hair on his temples, and a well-groomed beard on his lips. He was neatly dressed.

"Thank you for your reminder, but I didn't come to drink, but wanted to ask you about something."

While talking, Xingguangyi took out a notepad and a signature pen from his messenger bag, pretending to want to record, and then continued: "I'm actually a mystery novel writer, I recently read the newspaper to hear Said that a very strange case happened in this village, and this case seems to be related to another case that happened a long, long time ago."

At this moment, Xingguangyi regretted that he shouldn't have left all those newspapers to those three girls.

At this time, if you can take out the newspaper and let the bartender read it, it will probably be much easier than describing it yourself.

What Ling Xingguang didn't expect was that he simply explained his purpose and did not describe the case in detail, and a drinker sitting next to the bar spoke up.

"Oh, you must be talking about what happened the other day, poor old Frank," said the drunken drinker.

This is a strong man of five and three thick, with dark red short hair, probably because of drinking all the year round, his nose is red, he only wears a brown short sleeve on the upper body, and the fat on his stomach is stacked.

Xingguang could see that the drinker was trying his best to pretend to be serious and sad, but because he was drunk, his facial expression seemed to be out of his own control, and the excitement in his heart overflowed from his face.

Of course, this person is not all gloating, but there is basically nothing special about this small village. When such a big event happened, the whole village was watching the fun.

However, it can be seen from the side that the dead old Frank is usually not very popular in the village.

"Oh, I would like to hear about it."

Xingguangyi put on a very interested look and leaned forward to listen, holding a notepad and a signature pen in his hand.

But the drinker suddenly stopped talking. He picked up the empty glass in front of him and took another sip, and said in his mouth, "Ah~ah~ the wine has been drunk."

Seeing this person's behavior, Xingguangyi was not surprised. He was mentally prepared. After all, the children he met before told Xingguangyi with practical actions that this village is quite simple.

But since there is a requirement on the other side, it is easy to handle.

"Mr. bartender, please give this gentleman a glass of sherry as a treat." Xingguang said to the bartender.

Although Xingguangyi is often dragged to drink, he actually doesn't know much about wine. He only knows that there are liquor, beer, wine, whiskey, gin, sherry and other types of wine. As for these wines, there are How many brands, how to drink, how to distinguish between good and bad, he doesn't know.

Even the types of those wines were known to Xingguang from the drunkards around him.

"Ha, I knew that the gentleman from the big city is refreshing." Seeing that he was drinking again, the drinker seemed very happy.

Xingguang felt a little strange, he didn't understand why he was considered a gentleman from the city, but this was not the point, so he didn't change the subject to ask.

Although the bartender said that he could not provide Xingguang with alcohol, he could still invite others to drink.

He took a wine bottle from the shelf behind him and put it aside, and took out a new glass, ready to add ice to it.

At this time, the drinker stared at the glass and shouted: "No ice cubes, no ice cubes, the ice cubes in your house are hollow, there is less wine! There is less wine!"

The bartender ignored the drinker. He picked up the ice and put it in the glass. The wall of the glass was immediately covered with a white mist.

The bartender took off the stopper on the bottle, poured the sherry into a glass with ice cubes, and then handed the glass to the drinker.

"It's all ice cubes."

While the drinker muttered, the monkey took a big gulp.

Xingguang didn't say anything, he waited for the drinker to speak.

The drinker was also reputable, and after a good sip, he began to tell the story of the bizarre case.

"First of all, let's talk about old Frank... hiccup... sorry, whether it's what happened a few days ago or half a world ago, it's all about old Frank, this guy is weird and withdrawn, and doesn't like to be with others. Coming and going, I always stay in my own house, it seems that apart from guarding the unlucky garden, there is nothing else to do in life..."

The drinker said more and more, but because he was already drunk, what he said was slurred, and at the same time, he was talking upside down. Fortunately, there were more things to say, and other people in the tavern also came to join in the fun, wanting to ask Xingguang for a drink Drink, Xingguang Yi also invited each of them a cup.

This time, they all began to join in the discussion.

In their words, Xingguang Yi gradually pieced together a relatively complete outline of the event.

What really made the case of old Frank's death a few days ago mysterious is another case that happened more than half a century ago.

At that time, these alcoholic uncles were still children. When their adults had nothing to talk about, they would take this case out and talk about it again.

There is a manor on the hill behind the village. The mansion in this manor was originally the tallest and most magnificent mansion in a radius of hundreds of miles.

But just half a century ago, a bizarre murder occurred in the house.

At that time, the owner of the house and his family of three died overnight. It was only discovered by the housemaid when she was working at dawn.

Although the owner and family of this mansion are not good people, they are stingy and rude, and they like to bully the villagers for fun, but after all, they are people with power and status within a hundred miles.

The police arrived quickly and arrested the only suspect in the case, Frank Sr.

Old Frank was not old at that time. He retired from the battlefield because of a disability, and came to the mansion to work as a gardener.

Because in the yard that night, apart from the owner's family of three, there was only old Frank left, and there was a spare key for the side door of the mansion in the wooden house where he lived.

The police took old Frank and questioned him, but the old Frank did not admit that he did it himself, and said he had seen a dark-haired teenager near the yard.

The police certainly did not believe Old Frank's remarks, but even though he performed a set of "Grand Memories", Old Frank still insisted that he did not do it himself.

Just when the case was deadlocked, a bizarre autopsy report appeared in front of the investigators.

Chapter 781 It's quite sudden, I just met the big boss directly

The autopsy report is extremely bizarre. Three healthy living people died suddenly without any injuries or fatal causes of death. The family of three are all healthy and strong, but they are all dead.

After the bizarre autopsy report came out, the police acquitted old Frank. The family of three who died was buried in the churchyard in Little Hangleton. For a long time, the tombs of the family of three were the object of curiosity.

The old Frank who was released returned to the luxurious courtyard where the murder took place, and continued to take care of the courtyard, while waiting for the mansion to be taken over by the next owner.

What's more amazing is that this mansion was taken over very quickly. Obviously, the location of this mansion is far from the city, the traffic is inconvenient, and more importantly, there has been a recent death. In this case, there are still people who would buy this house, either crazy or stupid, because the villagers have heard that this house is not cheap.

After the new owner took over the mansion, he basically never came here, so old Frank had a new job and continued to take care of the mansion for the new owner.

Old Frank did the job until he was seventy-seven, and by then Frank was really "old" Frank.

A few days ago, people found the dead old Frank in the mansion. The appearance of old Frank's death was exactly the same as the death of the family of three of the legendary former owner of the mansion. The strange legend of the mansion.

This is the general picture of the whole thing.

Xing Guangyi wrote down the last sentence he heard on the notepad, and then put down the signature pen. He raised his head and asked again, "By the way, who are the previous and current owners of that mansion?"

"The previous owner was more famous... hiccup..." another drinker said with a hiccup, "surname... surname... surname Riddle, as for the current owner, I don't know."

The other drinkers nodded in agreement.

Xingguang knew in his heart that these drinkers probably knew so much.

After nodding his thanks, Xingguangyi closed the notepad, added the pen in the middle, and took these two things to leave.

At this time, Xing Guangyi suddenly saw a little girl hiding beside the counter. The little girl was looking at him secretly. She seemed to be one of the group of children just now.

Seeing the little girl's fearful appearance, Xingguang secretly made a face at her again and again, and the little girl was so frightened that she ran into the back room.

Xingguang left the tavern with a smile, and he was in a good mood after getting the clue.
