Fall in love with you and Kanshu.com, the number of people who survived this incident was 1 person

"Did they go to the woods so late? That's really bad."

"Yes, I'm also worried. Can you please accompany me to Mr. Winslow's cottage?"

Bai Xiaoqiao showed his signature smile, trying to make the sheriff, who had just been frightened, be influenced by his smile, and then listen to him. After all, the sheriff was originally to protect the safety of innocent villagers or outsiders.

However, the subsequent development of the situation disappointed Bai Xiaoqiao.

"Do you think this is good? You go back first. When it dawn, I will organize someone to find your companion." The sheriff's face was a little bad. His eyes were originally divine, but at this moment they were hiding under his police cap. I don't know what they were thinking, "This... it's midnight, and the forest is not small, so it's easy to get into trouble just by exploring it like this..."

"What's more, they were going to Winslow's home?" Bai Xiaoqiao had long known what the sheriff's attitude looked like. She smiled contemptuously and followed the conversation.

"yes."

The sheriff responded, suddenly looking up at the girl in front of him with a surprised look.

"Hmm? Miss, what do you mean?"

"You're afraid of Winslow, are you?"

"Where are you talking about this?"

The sheriff's eyes were dodging, and the dim lights in the cottage gave him a sense of security for the time being.

Bai Xiaoqiao snorted lightly, and did not answer the gentleman's words directly, but leaned his back against the table and looked at him with interesting eyes.

"Sir, do you remember a tourist named Gerald?"

"Ah, I have the impression that the detective committed a crime and was arrested back to London." The sheriff replied truthfully.

"When was the last time you saw him?"

"No, ma'am, I think you've misunderstood." The sheriff sighed deeply. "I haven't seen him. When I received the news, I went to the hotel to pick up his luggage, Scotland Yard had already picked him up."

When Bai Xiaoqiao was talking, he stared at the man in front of him, but did not notice anything abnormal. The sheriff seemed to be just explaining the facts.

"Is that true? Mr. Sheriff, do you know? Those who do our jobs are most likely to be exposed to some little secrets that they shouldn't know. For safety reasons, we usually leave a way out for ourselves. Take me as an example. I will tell my friends about my whereabouts and discoveries every day. If I haven't contacted me for a while, it means something happened to me."

"I don't understand what you mean."

"Mr. Sheriff, don't go around in circles. I have said before, is Gerald a detective?" Bai Xiaoqiao snorted.

"No, no, this is what the official document said."

"Come on, don't say such stupid words that even children can't cheat. Let's explain the matter clearly. I'm pretty sure that Gerald disappeared here, and you have had contact with Gerald, you saw the beast tamed by Winslow, didn't you?"

Bai Xiaoqiao was having fun with her face. She picked up a pen on the table casually and smiled.

At this moment, she had read all the thoughts of the sheriff, and what she wanted to say and what she wanted to know would be completely revealed from the sheriff's mouth.

"How do you know?"

"I said, I came to follow Gerald's footsteps. Please tell me all you know." Bai Xiaoqiao paused, "You may not know that the monster tamed by Winslow has already started slaughtering in London. Just yesterday, a nobleman was torn to pieces in his own home. The monster rushed into the nobleman's home, ignored the bullets shot, and tore him to the same size as a puzzle. This was just the power of a monster."

"And now, in the village you defend, there are several such monsters. Do you still choose to hide it? Or do you think that as long as you pretend not to know, the crazy old madman will let the whole village go?"

Bai Xiaoqiao said while observing the expression on the sheriff's face. She found that he was indeed as he thought, with a terror written on his face.

"What?! This monster is so terrifying!"

"That's right, this monster must not be kept in thirty years. I dare say that no one here knows how to deal with monsters better than me. Only by telling me everything will you have a glimmer of life."

The sheriff in front of him gradually calmed down. He looked up at the girl and chose to believe it.

"Okay, I get it, I'll tell you."

He continued to take out a cigarette from his arms, but now his movements are very steady. After taking a deep breath of the cigarette, he told the story.

"About a week ago, a detective named Gerald found me and he told me that someone had commissioned him to investigate Winslow and asked for my help."

"I didn't want to worry about this at first, but he told me that all those who came to Winslow from London were missing, and that he just wanted me to follow him to visit Winslow for a testimony, so we went to visit Winslow and we came to the hut."

"Gerald asked me to hide in the woods and said he wanted me to test it alone first and asked me to answer outside the door. Soon, I heard gunshots coming from the room. The detective rushed out of the room with a panic look on his face, holding a pistol in his hand."

"At this moment, the window on the second floor was broken."

“One…one…”

The sheriff suddenly couldn't continue to say anything. He covered his eyes with his hands, as if it was just a memory, which made him feel extremely panicked.

Seeing this, Bai Xiaoqiao immediately walked forward and held his hand.

"Calm down, my friend, calm down, you must muster up the courage to say everything, just say it out. If you hide everything in your heart, it will definitely become your nightmare."

"I, I, I saw a monster!" the sheriff sobbed, "O God!"

"Strong, you have to be strong. I have encountered the same things as you. Believe me, I definitely don't want to experience that kind of terrifying thing again, but if they are not solved, these things will happen. Your intelligence is very helpful in destroying these monsters. Come on, what happens next?"

After Bai Xiaoqiao's comfort, the sheriff slowly calmed down and could not hold the cigarette butt in his hand.

"Gerald shot at the monster, but it was useless. The monster seemed to be not afraid of guns at all. It jumped down from the second floor, knocked Gerald out and grabbed him back to the second floor."

"What were you doing at that time?"

"I, I did nothing..."

"Why are you just watching?"
