Chapter 450: The Byers Family (Strange)
"Damn! What happened just now?" Hope cursed, his hand already touching the gun on his waist.
Zhou Hao: "That little girl was weird. If she was really Mike's cousin, there was no need for them to run away. If the little girl was really a child who stole food from Benny's restaurant, Benny might have been killed because he took in the little girl.
The girl must have seen something."
Hope frowned and said: "Benny did call the Social Services Department that night and said that a child broke into his store, but before the Social Services Department sent anyone, Benny died and the child disappeared.
, could it be this little girl? I always thought it was Will!"
Zhou Hao nodded and said: "So this child is the key. Whether she is or not, we have to find her first."
Hope nodded: "Let's talk tomorrow, alas! What I'm worried about now is how to inform Joyce that her son is dead. What should I say? Kent, how about you say it for me?"
Zhou Hao shrugged and said, "You are the police chief, so of course it is up to you." Notifying the victims' families is not a good job, especially for sentimental humans.
The two drove a police car to Joyce Byers' house. The house looked dilapidated and had only one floor, but several tool rooms were built around it.
It's so unreasonable to be surrounded by dense woods and not even have a fence.
If they are not afraid of people, why are they not afraid of wild animals? But every household in the beautiful country has a gun, and a home like this that lives near the woods must always have a shotgun.
Hope knocked on the door, and Zhou Hao finally saw the former goddess. She had now become a sloppy middle-aged woman, and the disappearance of her youngest son Will made her even more haggard.
She first saw Hope's eyes light up, she came up and grabbed Hope's arm and said without words: "I saw a monster crawling out of the wall, Will...it was Will who told me to hurry up.
Running!"
Hope patted her arm and comforted: "Calm down! Joyce Kent, check the house!"
Zhou Hao nodded and turned his flashlight around the room. All the furniture in the room was very shabby. There was a string of lanterns hanging on the yellowed wallpaper, and 26 English letters were written under the lanterns.
He didn't know why, but Will in the reverse world used these lanterns to talk to his mother.
Zhou Hao saw Joyce's eldest son, Jonathan, the brother of the missing Will. This guy's image was as sloppy as his mother's, and a bit wretched. His eyes were straight, much like a drug addict.
But in fact he is not, at least not in this world. He is a photography enthusiast with a somewhat withdrawn personality. He has no friends in school and has a very good relationship with his younger brother Will.
He was sitting there dejectedly at the moment. He had just come back from outside and was startled by his mother, saying that a monster had come out of the wall, but he checked and found nothing. Even the wall was fine.
This made him have to suspect that his mother had a mental problem and had some kind of hallucination.
He had searched it just now and found nothing. His mother said that monsters crawled out of the wall, but the wall is fine now.
He very much suspected that his mother was so stimulated by Will's incident that she had a mental breakdown and had hallucinations.
At this time, Hope spoke with difficulty: "We found Will's body, right there in Nanhu..."
Joyce's face froze and she murmured: "It's impossible..."
Hope: "I speculate that he fell in the forest, then abandoned the car, walked to Nanhu and accidentally fell in..."
Joyce stared at Hope sadly and said: "No matter what you find! It must not be my son! It must not be Will!"
At this time, Jonathan came up and said painfully: "Mom, don't do this?"
Joyce: "No! Jonathan, tell him that what I said is true. I really talked to Will!"
Jonathan returned to his room and closed the door with a disappointed look on his face. He was no less sad than his mother, and he also needed to heal himself.
Zhou Hao discovered something at this time. Although the wall was not damaged, he found some slime on the wall and floor. As long as the monsters were not imaginary, they would definitely leave traces.
"Hope! I discovered something!" Zhou Hao said
Hope came over, and Zhou Hao used his flashlight to shine on a piece of slime on the ground and the location of the slime on the wall.
"What is this? Snot?" Hope wondered.
Joyce said in surprise: "That monster came out from here, this must be what it left behind." In fact, she didn't see it clearly at that time and was so frightened that she almost went crazy, so she turned around and ran out.
But these things are definitely not from her home, she can be sure of this!
Zhou Hao demonstrated the movement of the monster emerging, which matched the location of the stains.
Hope frowned and said, "Kent, come here with me."
He called Zhou Hao aside and whispered: "Kent, do you really believe that there are monsters coming out of the wall? This is not a scary story told to children when I was a child!"
He thought Zhou Hao was adding to the chaos and agreeing with the poor woman's monster statement was actually hurting her more, because when hope was shattered, she might collapse even more.
Zhou Hao glared at him and said: "Your Majesty Sheriff, just because you haven't seen it in this world doesn't mean there are none. I haven't seen monsters coming out of the wall, but I have seen zombies and I have seen them mutated in the laboratory.
Then the dog that eats people!”
Hope was stunned and couldn't help but asked: "Is what happened in Raccoon City true?" What happened to the stars in Raccoon City was exposed on the Internet for a while and was covered up by the federal government of the United States.
Haha, the so-called freedom of speech is relative. To use the standard of a beautiful country, it is "I want you to say what you want to say freely, but I don't want to hear it, so you can't say a word!"
Of course, this is their standard of doing things, but it does not mean that they will definitely be able to do it. Paper can never cover up the fire.
Zhou Hao nodded and said seriously: "Of course it's true. I killed many monsters with my own hands. The hush-hush order we were issued afterwards was to maintain the image of the umbrella company!"
Hope: "Do you think this has something to do with zombies?"
Zhou Hao said lightly: "Chief Hope, you are not naive enough to think that there are only monsters like zombies in this world, right? Have you forgotten about the Hulk? We have no evidence to prove that monsters do not exist, and we have no evidence to prove that Joyce is crazy.
, why don’t you believe her for now?”
Hope nodded. He felt that what Zhou Hao said made sense. There were things that were beyond common sense in this world, such as monsters coming out of the walls. There were frequent reports from Fox Town and Beacon Mountain Town next to Hawkins Town.
There are werewolves around.
The two returned to Joyce, and Zhou Hao said: "Ms. Bayes, suppose there is a monster coming out of the wall. We need evidence. You'd better be able to take some evidence with your mobile phone. Photos and videos are all fine.
"
Joyce nodded and said: "I understand, officer, I will find evidence. Please believe me. My son is not dead at all. I just talked to him. The body they found must not be my son's."
!”
Hope: "Okay, Joyce, this is Officer Oliver Kent. As he said, everything depends on evidence. Tomorrow the state police will arrange for you to identify the body. Didn't you say it wasn't Will?"
