Primordial Sequence

At noon, Camus was awakened by a slight shout. He opened his sleepy eyes and saw Shu Locke standing in front of his desk.

"It's time to eat, Mr. Camoo." Shu Locke said in a low voice. He smiled and pointed to the side, which was the canteen for the entire special team.

"Oh, thank you." Camus smiled, picked up his hat, put it on, and followed.

After eating, Camus and Shu Locke went downstairs. Camus walked back to his seat. At this moment, he saw a document on the table next to him, which was exactly the document that Sofina had sent in the morning.

"Mr. Hugh Locke, this is the information sent by Sofina, which may involve extraordinary events."

"Oh? Let me take a look." Shu Locke, who was sitting comfortably on the sofa, immediately raised his head after hearing this. Lazy is lazy. Extraordinary events are the reason why they are gathered here. He must show a full attitude towards extraordinary events.

Camus walked over with the information. Shu Locke looked at the description above intently. His face was very calm. After a few minutes, he put down the information and spoke in a slightly urgent tone.

"Follow me, look at the notes first, and then the crime scene." Shu Locke pulled on his slender clothes and walked out.

"Didn't you bring the things over?" Kamius asked doubtfully. Logically speaking, since there was a supernatural shadow, why didn't the police station send the notes?

"Because it was too late, this was yesterday's case, and it was only sent for classification this morning. We need to confirm whether it is an extraordinary event." Shu Locke described it as he walked.

After walking down the first floor, Shu Locke said in a low voice, "We're on a mission."

"yes"

Upon hearing that there was a mission, several busy people immediately stood up and quickly walked behind the two of them, one of whom was Sufina.

"They are professionals from the police department. You know, our group of people can kill people. We need professionals to deal with these matters." Seeing Camus' slight confusion, Shu Locke spoke in a low voice.

"Okay." Kamius nodded slightly, and a group of people headed towards the police station in the port area.

Nearly half an hour later, Camus and a group of people had arrived at the police station in the port area. The chief of the police station was an old acquaintance of Camus, the police chief with a mustache, but there was another acquaintance, the young policewoman Ms. Yana. Camus didn't see it, but Director Teach also saw Camus and Shu Locke. Then his expression changed. Something big must have happened to these two people. They had only been quiet for a few days. Teach had no choice but to suffer. Face ran over.

"Mr. Camoo, Priest Shu Locke, nice to see you."

"Where's the note?"

Shu Locke nodded lowly and spoke in a calm tone.

"What notes?" Tiqi was obviously stunned, because there were too many things that happened recently, and he couldn't remember what happened at the moment.

"Chief, that happened yesterday. You went out to catch gangsters at that time, so you didn't know." The young police officer next to him spoke in a low voice, reminding Tiqi.

"Take me there." When he heard that someone knew about this thing, Shu Locke immediately turned his eyes and ordered the young police officer.

"Okay," the young police officer nodded quickly and ran into the police station quickly. Camus and others followed him and did not stop until they reached the archives room. Before the young police officer could speak, Shu Locke could not speak. , just one of those books came out. There were some irregular black and red blood stains on this book. The material was very new and there was nothing on the cover. Seeing this, Shu Lock stretched out his arm and took the book. He started flipping through it, and Kamui could vaguely see the text above because he was behind him.

"Wow!" Shu Locke quickly flipped through the books, his expression getting more and more ugly. He closed the book with a dark face and asked gloomily.

"Has anyone else read this book?"

"This was discovered by a homeless man. When we passed by, a group of people had gathered around. Because it was evening, we did not open the books. I studied history in college. There were ancient symbols and extraordinary signs on site. I think this The matter may involve extraordinary events, so I reported it." The young police officer spoke slowly and quickly.

"It's best if you don't look at it. Just forget it after you look at it. Where is the body?" After receiving the reply, Shu Locke said something meaningful and then asked about the body.

"At the scene, I asked people to seal off the basement yesterday. I did not move the body. Because something extraordinary must have happened there." The police officer spoke with a determined tone, as if he had also seen some extraordinary scenes.

"Very good, you did the right thing. Where is the tramp? Has he seen it?" Shu Locke asked again, asking about the tramp.

"He went to the basement because of the rancid smell. I don't know if he saw it." The young police officer whispered, his voice getting smaller and smaller.

"Find him, bring him to me, and let's go to the scene." Shu Locke waved his arm, turned and left. Camus touched his chin. Although he also saw the note, he found that it was more like A story, a tragic story, why did Shu Locke react so strongly?

A group of people rushed to the scene. It was a very dilapidated wooden hut. The construction of the house was extremely simple, and the area was not large, about 50 square meters. He was surrounded by some similar houses, and there were Some ragged homeless people, sailors, and dock workers were looking at them in fear. Camus glanced around and frowned secretly. It was the house, and he didn't feel anything wrong.

"The body is in the basement." The leading young police officer said in a low voice. He opened the door and a group of people followed him in. The house could be said to be bare, with only a few shabby furniture and a few holes in the house. , some coldness was blowing in through the broken windows. The layout of the house was one bedroom, one living room and one bathroom. The young police officer led a few people to the bedroom, where the shabby big bed had been opened, and a man was secretly bound by chains. The yellow wooden board was lying quietly on the ground. As soon as Camus entered the room, he smelled a strong putrid smell coming from underneath the wooden board.

"The homeless man discovered this place because he smelled the rotten smell." The young police officer continued. Behind him was a wooden wardrobe without a door, which contained several pieces of men's clothes, mostly burlap.

"You guys go out and wait for me. Camus is coming with me." Smelling the rotten smell in the air, Shu Locke spoke in a low voice. After everyone went out, a light knife appeared in Shu Locke's hand and split the chain. , and pulled open the lid.

"Huh..." A greater putrid smell came from the gloomy basement. Camus suddenly held his breath and turned his eyes to Shu Locke.

"I hope this is really just suicide." Shu Locke said with a heavy face, and walked down. Kamius followed him as soon as he saw it.

"Light..." Shu Locke, who was walking in front, made a low voice. Suddenly a ball of light appeared in his hand, and the dark basement was suddenly illuminated.

"This..." There was a corpse lying in the middle of the small basement in the dark. Black and yellow pus was leaking from the eyes of this corpse. There were dense white maggots squirming in the mouth. His heart was bloody and bloody. Twisting and crawling white maggots crawled from his heart to his clothes and crawled all over his body. There was a hideous wound on his neck. There was pale yellow pus flowing out of the wound, which was extremely disgusting. The ground was covered with sticky The blood was so thick that as soon as the two people stepped on their shoes, blood-red blood streaks immediately appeared. An inverted triangle and a red cross were painted with blood on the wall next to it.

"Kamiu, how long did you say he was dead?" Shu Locke, who was next to him, glanced around, bent his head, and spoke in a low tone.

"It's been at least a week, or even longer." Seeing the suppurating corpse, Camus subconsciously spoke.

"What about the blood?" Shu Locke continued.

Kamiao immediately looked at his feet. He frowned when he saw the blood on the ground and the footprints behind him.

"The blood hasn't dried yet. How long do you think he has been dead?" Shu Locke said quietly, and his voice was like the cold wind in winter that sent a chill down Kamius' back.

"What happened to the body?" Kamius continued to ask.

"Have you ever seen what a mutated transcendent looks like after death?" Shu Locke did not answer Kamius, but asked again.

Camus raised his head slightly. He had only seen two mutation events. Nightmare Jack turned into a terrifying monster, the old cat man who had mutated not long ago.

There was no problem with Jack's body after his mutation, but the old catman turned into minced meat after his mutation.

"I presume that his death time will not exceed two days. As for why the body rotted quickly, it was because he was corroded by the fallen power." Before Kamius could speak, Shu Locke continued to speak.

"Every person corrupted by the fallen power will have his body rot rapidly in a short period of time, and his soul will be completely dissolved." As Shu Locke spoke, he walked towards the wall. He frowned as he looked at the cross sign, and the air Suddenly there was silence.

"Do you recognize this kind of symbol?" After thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of which organization the bloody cross was the symbol of, so Shu Locke could only ask Kamius.

"I don't know." Camus also saw two symbols. He recognized the inverted triangle as the symbol of the 'other world'. As for the cross, he didn't recognize it either. Originally, he thought it was the symbol of the Church of the Sun, but he was denied in the end. He didn't care about it either.

"This is an extraordinary incident. The murderer may be a cultist of the "Dark Crow", a 'Sequence Nine Stage Two Lawyer'. Of course, there is another possibility." At this point, Shu Locke spoke softly.

"Level 2 Sealed Artifact, 'Instigator'."

"How can you be so sure?" With just a rotting corpse and a few symbols, he was able to deduce who the murderer was, which made Camus slightly surprised.

"Because I have encountered this kind of extraordinary incident. In that incident, 75 people died, including a son of three lights in the fifth stage of the sequence. The others, except for the seven tributes, were all extraordinary people." There was a gloomy look on Xiu Locke's face.

"He did not commit suicide, but was instigated to commit suicide. Sequence nine stage two "lawful people" like to do this kind of thing because of the characteristics of their profession. They use words to confuse those with fragile hearts and instigate them to commit suicide. This kind of suicide will happen a total of seven times." When Shurok said that 75 people had died, and there was even a stage three person who died because of this kind of thing, Kamio immediately clenched his hands.

"He lost his heart. If someone commits suicide next time and loses his liver, we will be in big trouble." Shu Locke squatted next to the corpse. He looked at the chest that had lost its heart and spoke in a low voice.

heart? Camus also looked over. Susie once told herself that some evil rituals require internal organs as materials. Could it be that the other party went through all kinds of troubles to make people commit suicide just to get his heart? Is there something special about this person's heart?

"Let's go back. I want to check the information." Shu Locke stood up from the body. He put the blood-stained note in Camus' hand and spoke in a deep voice.

"The answer is inside."

Seeing his back, Camus looked back at the room. When he saw the bloody cross, he touched his chin and followed him.

Seeing the two people coming out, a group of people gathered around them. They looked at the two people and waited for their results.

"Go back, we have taken over this matter, and the corpse inside will be sent to us." Shu Locke said in a low voice, and a group of professionals who followed were a little discouraged. This was the first extraordinary event they came to, and they didn't expect it. It was over before they entered the scene, but their professional ethics made them shut their mouths, and they could only think secretly about what happened underground.

"Mr. Camus, what happened inside?" Sufina specially followed Camus in the carriage after leaving. She asked anxiously as soon as she got into the carriage.

"I don't know what's going on. The body has been dead for no more than two days at most and has completely decomposed. Mr. Locke has determined that this is an extraordinary event." Camus looked at Sufina's expectant eyes and couldn't bear to refuse. This is my teacher from now on, so I can only say a few words casually.

"Corrosion of fallen power," Sufina immediately spoke after hearing the description, with a strange light shining in her eyes.

"Oh...you know?"

"Know."
