Chapter 71 Dry well【Recommendation for collection】

"Now, can you tell me the real reason for not going to Duncan's funeral?"

Looking away from the sheriff's back, Amanda looked at the girl in front of her, and asked the question she had asked again.

With the departure of the town sheriff, it may be obvious that the tense look on Nancy's face has relaxed a little.

She looked up at Amanda, with a hesitant expression flashing across her face, and finally said with some hope: "Actually, we all know that Duncan chose to commit suicide because of that nightmare..."

"Nightmare?"

"I know, you won't believe it."

Noticing the expression on Amanda's face, Nancy said in a self-defeating tone.

"Just like everyone in Springwood Town, you never believed everything we said, even if Duncan died because of this, you still..."

"Do not."

Shaking his head, he denied Nancy's words.

Amanda stared into the girl's eyes, looked at her word by word and said.

"In fact, this is the purpose of my coming to Springwood Town."

Hearing Amanda's words, Nancy's originally desperate eyes suddenly burst into a color called hope. She covered her mouth and wept to vent all her grievances, fears and fears during this period of time.

And Amanda was also in the girl's intermittent description.

Knowing everything that happened in Chunmu Town during this period of time.

……

puff-

Accompanied by the sound of stones being thrown into the water.

The boy opened his eyes.

A rancid smell poured into his nostrils, and the boy couldn't help coughing violently.

He covered his nose, resisting the rancid smell that filled his nasal cavity, and tried his best to look at everything around him with his eyes wide open.

The dark environment made everything blurry, only a lonely dry well stood there quietly in front of my eyes.

puff-

The sound of stones being thrown into the water sounded again.

Hearing the voice from the dry well, a curious look flashed across the boy's face.

Take a step forward and walk in the direction of the dry well.

However, after walking a few steps, he seemed to suddenly feel something was wrong again, stopped, and took a few steps back again.

"Why would I..."

Looking at the unfamiliar scene around him, doubts began to appear in the boy's mind.

He remembered that he should be at home on Elm Street, but everything around him was completely different from the home he remembered.

It's just that the doubts in the boy's mind have not yet fully formed.

A huge force came from behind, pushing his body towards the dry well.

The boy turned his head to look behind him in panic, only to find that there was nothing but the dark scenery.

When he came to the dry well, the power behind him also disappeared.

The boy looked down at the dry well that was only one step away from him, and felt an inexplicable sense of fear in his heart.

However, at the same time as fear, uncontrollable curiosity also spread in the boy's heart.

"Gollum."

Standing by the dry well, the boy swallowed and walked towards the dry well with his stiff feet.

When he came to the edge of the dry well, he mustered up the courage to poke his head out and glance into the well.

"Whoo~"

The rancid smell that hit his face made the boy's face show a uncomfortable expression.

He held his breath and looked towards the dry well.

The appearance of the well being empty made the boy subconsciously breathe a sigh of relief.

However, it hasn't waited for him to let go of his heart.

From the dry well, sharp iron claws suddenly protruded and grabbed the boy's neck.

"Hey, welcome to my house, kid."

……

"No leads."

Chunmu Town, ended their respective investigations.

Amanda and Agent Zhou meet again at the restaurant on Elm Street.

"I checked the computer left by Duncan, and apart from the last live video, there are not many useful clues for this investigation."

"The Michaels are still unwilling to reveal the information they have hidden."

Frowning, Detective Zhou's investigation this time did not yield much useful results.

"I asked Duncan's friends in the town."

After listening to Detective Zhou's unsatisfactory investigation work, Amanda opened her mouth and told him the clues she had obtained.

"Looks like Duncan isn't the only one tormented by nightmares."

"The children on Elm Street have been having similar nightmares frequently since a week ago. In the dream, they saw a dry well, and the sound of stones being thrown into the water kept ringing..."

"After discovering that each other was having the same nightmare, they explored the source of the nightmare. In the files of the police station on Elm Street, there was a secret story recorded 20 years ago. There was an unknown case, describing a so-called It's Freddy's man, and the photo of Freddy wearing a red and green cross is similar to the phantom that flickered in their dreams."

"Freddie."

Hearing Amanda's description, Detective Zhou couldn't help muttering in a low voice.

Immediately afterwards, he frowned and said, "Since Freddy committed a crime in the town 20 years ago, it's impossible for the sheriff and residents of the town not to know about it."

Reminiscent of the concealed appearance of the priest and the parents of the suicide child at the church funeral.

As well as the deliberate concealment of the sheriff of the town, Detective Zhou began to have doubts about everything in Chunmu Town.

"Perhaps, there are some unknown secrets hidden behind the town. The unknown case 20 years ago that the sheriff and residents of the town concealed together is the source of the nightmare and all the incidents. A case that was deliberately covered up in the small town led to the result that the teenagers in the small town are now in a nightmare."

"Freddie is the soul of the unknown case 20 years ago. He is taking some kind of revenge on the children of those town residents."

Detective Zhou's speculation is also part of Amanda's inner guess.

Just, that's all.

Is it really as simple as just revenge?

For this, Amanda has never been able to make sure.

However, no matter what the truth behind it is, the sheriff of the small town is definitely the key, because he is holding the truth about Freddy's case 20 years ago in his hands.

bang-

In the restaurant on Elm Street, just as Amanda was thinking about how to get the truth 20 years ago through the mouth of the sheriff of the town.

The door of the restaurant was suddenly pulled open heavily from the inside.

The sheriff of the small town who became the suspect came in, his eyes swept over the deserted business in the restaurant, and soon found Amanda sitting in the corner.

"problem occurs."

Under the watchful eyes of Amanda and Detective Zhou, the sheriff of the town spoke.

"Em Street, another child has died."
