880: System, detection of strange talk rule 1
"Dad?" Betty rubbed her eyes in confusion and got up. Seeing Mo De, she cried out in surprise.
Naturally picking up the girl, Mo De said calmly, "Why aren't you watching TV? Do you just sleep when you're home?"
"The TV broke a long time ago." Betty said logically, with a hint of complaint, "This place isn't good at all, Dad, I want to go home."
Go home.
Hearing this, Mo De's eyes flickered, "Go home? Then Betty, do you know where our home is?"
"Hmm..." Betty frowned and thought for a moment after hearing this question, then described, "Our home is very far away. Dad, you always say home is very far from work, and you always wake up late."
"Anything else?"
"Also... mud. There's fun mud at home, hehehe." Betty thought of something fun and clapped her hands.
"And then?"
"And then? And then I threw mud, red mud, like flowers!"
"After that?"
"After that... after that..."
Facing Mo De's continuous questions, like squeezing a sponge, Betty mumbled words, no longer revealing any extra information.
It seemed this was all she knew.
However, through these questions, Mo De already vaguely had an answer in his heart, the answer to where his real home was.
"Captain!"
Corey and Old Tang Na arrived quickly on bicycles, wasting little time.
"Help me move some things." Mo De instructed Corey.
As he spoke, he also watched the changes in their expressions.
When these two saw him inside this house that didn't belong to him, their expressions didn't change at all.
It seemed they wouldn't convey much information on matters related to Tales of the Weird world rules.
Some behaviors and thoughts in their subconscious had already been tampered with by the Tales of the Weird world.
Under Mo De's command.
The wardrobe in the basement was moved out by the two of them working together.
This kind of manual labor was a bit too much for both of them.
However, Mo De had leverage over both of them, so their movements weren't too slow.
They didn't forget to complain about how heavy the thing was.
Plus, there was no light in the basement at all, and in the pitch black, there were constant troubles.
In the yard outside the house.
Before Mo De was a wardrobe.
Before, in the basement, when it was pitch black, Mo De couldn't see very clearly even with a flashlight.
Now, looking at it under the Sun.
He could clearly see that the entire wardrobe was completely covered in a layer of paint!
And inside, it was smeared with a thick layer.
Even with this level of coating, Mo De could still see the undeniable dark red blood scabs in some flawed areas!
"Peel off this paint." Mo De said to Corey and Old Tang Na without hesitation.
The paint was very thick, but this kind of thing is actually easier to peel off the thicker it is.
After Old Tang Na and Mo De used various tools to pry it, a basin-sized area was already conspicuously revealed.
It was blood, all blood!
What the paint covered was that large area of fresh blood!
Especially inside the wardrobe.
As long as the paint was cleaned off, there was blood underneath, almost no spot was untouched by the filth!
It could be confirmed that this wardrobe had previously contained a corpse!
And that corpse was very likely Bosen!
He had originally thought Bosen died in the Redwood Forest.
Looking at it this way, the person was first killed, then dismembered and placed in the wardrobe, and then buried in the Redwood Forest...
The idea might be a bit absolute, but the general form and suspicion were basically like this.
But where was Bosen's upper body?
It still hadn't been found until now.
"Captain, look here quickly!" After Corey and Old Tang Na pried open a large piece of paint from the bottom of the wardrobe, they looked at Mo De with shock in their voices.
Mo De stepped forward to look.
He frowned.
Under the paint, there was a palm!
"Continue peeling off the remaining paint." Mo De said this, then glanced at the cabinet, "Just dismantle this cabinet, it'll be easier to work with."
Under this command, the wardrobe shattered in response.
At the same time, the paint inside was also removed.
Among them, the palm sealed in the paint, followed by the wrist, arm, and upper arm, were all revealed!
Finally, beneath the paint Seal, the corpse of a Child so dry it would crumble at a touch appeared before their eyes!
Upon seeing this corpse, Mo De's heart trembled!
"Whose Child is this? How could someone kill them like this?!" Old Tang Na and Corey nearby were also startled by this unexpected scene.
"This is my Hong Lei's daughter, Una." Mo De muttered to himself.
Looking at the corpse peeled from the paint, he already understood the person's identity.
"Go to the basement and move everything inside out!" Mo De shouted to the two with considerably heavier tone.
Una was not just a disappearance lightly described in a storybook.
She was tortured and killed like this by someone!
The death of his original Hong Lei's daughter was also related to the Master of this house!
This way, it made sense why Bosen's case would be involved with his Lin Yue's wife and Hong Lei's daughter.
The murderer was the same person. Their wronged souls naturally carried hatred due to the murderer's impunity and wandered outside.
Suddenly, Mo De abruptly thought of something.
These past few days, during his time with his Hong Lei's daughter and Lin Yue's wife, there was a very clear memory point.
"Dad, open the door quickly. Why did you close the door as soon as I came? Do you dislike Betty?"
"Dad, don't you want Betty anymore?"
"Dad, it's so dark here, I'm so scared..."
Similar words, carrying the same meaning, Mo De would basically hear them every night when facing his Hong Lei's daughter!
Combining this with Una's corpse seen at this moment, Mo De roughly understood.
Before Una died, she was in a pitch black and enclosed place, which was the basement!
And the person who locked Una up...
Suddenly, the direction of the matter turned a hundred and eighty degrees and pointed at himself!
What if the third rule in today's Tales of the Weird world Rule Group D.
[3. The house you live in is not your home. Before 12 o'clock at night, take your only relative back to your real home. If you are late, the Master of this house should return.]
What if this was wrong?!
The house he lived in really was his own!
This way, he completely possessed all the conditions a real murderer should have!
That's not right either. The additionally added correct Tales of the Weird world Rule reminded that the murderer was among all the people he had met.
He hadn't met himself.
"Oh dear, why is this mirror so heavy too!"
Inside the house, Corey and Old Tang Na complained while moving a mirror from the basement.
Looking at the mirror moving from far to near, looking at his reflection in the mirror, Mo De felt a moment of trance...
He really had met himself!
"Ding ~ Congratulations Host for surviving another 12 hours. Reward: one lie detection chance. Current lie detection chances: one."
The System's voice arrived on time.
Mo De looked at his watch; it was already close to twelve o'clock.
After taking a deep breath, A Man's mood fluctuated intensely, and his tone was also somewhat urgent: "System, detect whether the first rule of Tales of the Weird world Rule Group A is lying!"
"Ding ~ Host has consumed one lie detection chance."
"According to System detection, the first rule of Tales of the Weird world Rule Group A contains a lie."
