pat, pat-

Entering the place guarded by BSI, the obese man did not go into Mary Shaw's cabin, but went straight to the dead tree.

Looking down at the pothole under the tree that still had scorched black marks, the obese man's eyes flickered with an inexplicable look, and he grinned in a contemptuous tone and said: "Mary Xiao, Mary Xiao, hide For the rest of my life, so what, let me find it, I have already said that you do not belong here, no one in this world can accept you except me..."

Accompanied by the fat man's muttering to himself, the corners of his grinning mouth continued to spread to the back of his ears, and the originally soft murmur turned into a ferocious roar.

"Now, it's time to go home."

However, with the roar, the ferocious expression on the fat man's face quickly returned to its original calm.

He raised the crutch in his hand and pointed at the dead tree in front of him.

Immediately afterwards, under the gaze of BSI with painful expressions around him, he saw that the trunk of the dead tree that was motionless in the yard began to twist violently. The whole dead tree struggled and twisted as if it had life. The withered branches on the tree fell away one after another, and finally the whole dead tree twisted and curled up into a clockwork puppet half the height of a person, appearing in front of the fat man.

Crunch, crunch—

Turning the spring on the back to wind up, the puppet raised its head, turned its wooden eyeballs to the fat man in front of it, and opened and closed its mouth to make useless sounds.

"who are you?"

"You can call me Captain."

Facing the clockwork puppet's question, the obese man stretched out his hand to press the top hat on his head, grinned and said with a smile showing his sharp teeth.

"Now, it's time for us to go home."

"Family?"

Hearing the word 'home' in the mouth of the fat man, the head of the clockwork puppet's eyes moved.

"Yes, home, that's where you were originally born, a paradise of joy and no sorrow."

Noticing the change in the puppet's eyes, the smile on the head's face under the top hat became more pronounced, the mustache on his mouth raised unconsciously, and the head turned around limping on crutches.

Seeing the plump back of the leader, the clockwork puppet's eyes moved. It turned its neck and turned its head 180 degrees to look at Mary Shaw's wooden house behind it, then turned its head and followed the leader's footsteps, step by step. .

When passing those BSI agents, the head of the group stopped himself.

He lowered his head and landed on these feathered BSI agents over his chubby belly. A strange smile appeared on the fat face under the shadow of the captain's top hat, and he said softly.

"Oh, it just so happens that the freak show in the circus still lacks a few performers. I wonder if some police officers are willing to help us?"

As the leader's voice fell, several BSI agents who fell on the ground shook their bodies and got up from the ground. Their bodies were covered with colorful feathers, and they followed behind the leader with distorted and painful expressions.

In this way, under the leadership of the head of the group, a group of people walked towards the distance.

Only Mary Shaw's wooden house was left, still alone in place.

……

"What's wrong, Zhou?"

Getting out of the car, Amanda noticed the painful expression flashing across the face of Detective Zhou beside her.

"It's nothing, maybe when I got out of the car, I accidentally touched the wound."

Faced with Amanda's concern, Detective Zhou reached out and touched his arm tied to the door panel, feeling the constant tingling, couldn't help frowning and replied.

"I have already applied for your injury leave with BSI. In fact, you don't need to participate in this case at all."

Hearing Detective Zhou's answer, Amanda's gaze fell on his tightly wrapped arm.

"I'm not used to being alone at home with nothing to do, let alone..."

Regarding Amanda's persuasion, agent Zhou turned his head and glanced in the direction of Mary Shaw's wooden house in front of him: "There is a problem with Mary Xiao's wooden house, how could I remain indifferent."

The disappearance of several BSI agents who were in charge of finishing and guarding the wooden house undoubtedly caused a huge shock inside BSI. BSI worried that this was another disappearance case.

"Head..."

In front of him, seeing the figures of Amanda and Detective Zhou, Detective Phil, who had rushed to the scene first, immediately greeted them.

"how is the situation?"

Looking at the direction of the wooden house, Amanda immediately noticed the changes in the yard of the wooden house. The dead tree where she dug up the body had disappeared.

"If no detective is found, the whole situation is very similar to the previous disappearance case."

Mary Shaw's cabin is missing again, it's not surprising that Detective Phil has such a judgment.

"No, this time is different from the previous disappearance cases."

However, at this moment, Spike, who came out of the wooden house, gave a different statement.

Holding a colorful feather in his hand, he came in front of Amanda and the others.

"It seems that after we left, another guest came here..."
