The Devil’s Cage Chapter 16: Stove Grilled Fish
The sudden screaming caused Kieran to change the original plan around the detective, and he went straight to where the screaming sounded.
When Kieran came to the place where the screaming happened, the afterglow of the setting sun had completely disappeared, but this did not prevent the harsh scarlet reflection in Kieran's eyes.
The woman screaming is dead.
The other party’s face still retains the fear of being attacked suddenly during his lifetime.
The other person's body is broken and incomplete, most of the internal organs are devoured, and the same is true for the flesh and blood on the limbs and trunk.
The two thigh bones of the other party were broken into pieces.
Kieran can completely imagine how a big mouth of blood basin is chewing holding each other's flesh.
Except for the head, this poor woman did not leave a more complete body.
However, what surprised Kieran most was that there were no more traces left on the scene.
Probably more accurately, the original left a fairly clear trace, but with the advent of Curtain of Night, such traces are rapidly disappearing.
"A different night?"
"Interesting."
The squinting Kieran whispered to himself.
Beep!
In the distance, a sharp whistle has sounded.
Kieran glanced at the group of people in uniforms, obviously Law Enforcer like the police, and turned and walked into the shadows.
He doesn’t mind contacting him.
But now, it is not yet time.
......
Curtain of Night arrived as scheduled.
The dark night sky can't see the bright moon, nor can it see the stars, just a dark cloud, just like the same cloud of black mist over Adarsh.
People living here have locked their rooms and entered their dreams.
At the head of the bed, more or less self-defense weapons will be put on.
Almost at the moment when night fell, Adarsh fell silent.
Of course, not all.
There are always a few brightly lit places in alleys of certain streets.
Kieran easily found three pubs and hotels with a large number of people in the shortest time.
He then selected one of the inns named ‘Stove Grilled Fish’.
This choice is not arbitrary.
Except for the name ‘Stove Grilled Fish’, which makes Kieran have a good impression, but also because this hotel has a strong atmosphere far beyond the other two places.
The kind of strong person's breath in the eyes of ordinary people.
Dingling.
"Welcome warriors who dare to travel at night."
"You and I’m glad you didn’t make the wrong choice-I have good beer and freshly baked bread. Of course, I suggest you pull a signature dish: Stove Grilled Fish!"
Kieran pushed the door in, and a loud noise came from the sound of the doorbell.
A man standing behind the bar on the first floor, shirtless, showing strong muscles and thick chest hair, greeted Kieran loudly.
The other party was still holding half a glass of beer, and his beard, which was as thick as his chest hair, was covered with wine, and the candlelight shone on the top of his bare head, which was extremely conspicuous.
"One Stove Grilled Fish and bread."
"I also need a clean room with hot water."
Kieran said, and walked to the corner of first floor.
"Of course!"
"I have everything you need, do you pay ancient coins or cash?"
The other party nodded with a smile.
ancient coins, cash?
For Kieran who is not familiar with Dungeon World in front of him, this is undoubtedly the information that needs to be recorded.
Fortunately, he has just observed that precious metals are still hard currency here.
Slap it.
The gold of an adult’s pinkie fingernail size fell on the wooden qualitative bar exactly, shining brightly under the light of a butter candle with thick arms.
The brilliance of gold immediately attracted the attention of others in the hotel.
Thick Greed appeared in the eyes of these people.
However, immediately, they looked away.
Because, that person standing behind the bar is staring at them fiercely.
"This is ‘Stove Grilled Fish’, my Laglan’s trump card!”
"Who dare not to accept my rules, I will take him to feed the fish!"
The boss Laglan of ‘Stove Grilled Fish’ said aloud.
Then he picked up gold and put it in his trouser pocket. He said to Kieran with a very gentle tone: "Sir, I assure you that you will be treated as if you are here." >
"Your room is waiting for you at any time."
"Your grilled fish and bread will be here soon. I will give you a vegetable soup and beer, please enjoy it."
Obviously, that little piece of gold played a decisive role.
The Kieran room was cleaned out very quickly, and the food appeared in front of him three minutes later.
Grilled fish and bread are common foods, vegetable soup also lacks salt, and there will not be complete green vegetables. There are some chopped green grass foam. The place where Unique/only is commendable is full weight.
Beer, Kieran didn’t touch, he put wine glass aside, and started eating his own dinner, his ear was collecting all the information that could be collected.
Although the conversation in the hall was as quiet as possible, none of these people's whispering escaped his ears with Intuition of Kieran, as if whispering in his ears.
"What is it?"
"The police say they are wolves."
"Don't be funny."
"I don’t know if it’s blood descendants, Werewolves, or ghouls."
"But one thing is certain!"
"Those rice buckets are just talking nonsense."
......
The utterance was full of sarcasm and ridicule, and then aroused ridicule from the same table.
Then these guys frequently toast.
Kieran listened silently.
Most of them are similar to useless messages with speculation.
But not all.
When Kieran sipped the vegetable soup in one sip, he kept paying attention~IndoMTL.com~ The two guests on the table near the table opened.
These two are old and young.
The older one carried a cane. The cane had a slightly undetectable gap near the end of the handle. Although it was hidden, Kieran glanced at it to know what was hidden inside.
Sword blade!
A Longsword with a cane shape and a blade inside.
The younger one is more straightforward. The brown trench coat can't cover the peculiar protrusion of the psoas muscle. Looking at the contour Kieran, it should be a revolver.
Both of them have brown hair and green eyes, and their faces are similar.
Obviously, there is a blood relationship.
"Will, what are you talking about?"
The younger lowered his voice and asked.
"It will not be blood descendants, they like to maintain the so-called grace."
"It will not be Werewolves, and until the full moon night, their madness will not erupt. Even the Werewolves who likes to hunt, it will not "waste food", they will pack everything away, Instead of throwing a floor."
"ghouls is possible."
"The behavior of these guys is no longer assigned by their shrunken brains, and it is no different from the normal wild beast."
"However, I prefer to be..."
The words of the elderly continue, and they come to the most critical place.
But at this moment, he was interrupted by the rude push of the door.
Boom!
The door of ‘Stove Grilled Fish’ was heavily smashed on the inner wall, and the hanging doorbell hadn’t had time to make a sound, so it was smashed.
An extremely tall man led two people in.
The two, one with a vicious face and one with a thin figure.
The eyes of the three people patrolled the entire hotel lobby. When they saw Kieran sitting in the corner, the both eyes of the three people lit up and walked towards Kieran with a grin.
