Evening Bell Church

Chapter 66 The Mad Painter

"What's the sound?" Su Ge frowned slightly, immediately activated his spiritual power and spiritual vision, and listened carefully.

"Are you Priest Sotos?" Just as Su Ge was listening, an old and lacking confidence voice came.

Su Ge withdrew his spiritual vision and turned around to see an energetic old man wearing a well-dressed black suit and holding a slightly short black sandalwood cane standing in front of him.

"Hello! My name is Su Ge Sotos, and I am the police detective who came to investigate the crazy case this time," Su Ge put aside the matter of his voice for the time being and said with a slight salute.

The old man nodded, looked around and asked, "Are you here by yourself?"

Su Ge nodded and said, "Yes, there are a lot of things happening at the police station recently. I can just take charge of this case myself."

After hearing the warning, the old man said: "Then you should be careful. He is very violent now and ordinary people cannot approach him. I originally intended that you would bring a priest over to calm Joseph's violent spirit."

Su Ge took out the pendant on his chest and said with a smile, "It just so happens that I am also a priest."

"Oh! That's great!" The old man looked happy.

The group then headed west along the hall.

The two people had a simple communication on the way.

The old man's name is Griman Stowe. He is not only the curator of this museum, but also a professor in the history department of Bain University. At the same time, he is an expert historian and an old gentleman full of knowledge and courtesy.

"Every historical artifact can actually speak. The traces of time on them are telling us about the glory of the past and the secret knowledge submerged in time." After hearing that Su Ge also graduated from Bain University Finally, the old professor talked about his experience very enthusiastically.

Su Ge smiled and nodded as he listened, agreeing, but did not express much of his suggestions.

After all, he doesn't know anything about history.

After walking forward for about five minutes and passing through a long corridor, the group came to the westernmost side near the gable warehouse.

At this time, in this heavy black iron door, there were faint sounds of struggling and inhuman roars.

Su Ge instantly turned on his spiritual power and saw some ripples with strange stripes coming from the door.

"Is this guy completely transformed into a beast? The fluctuation and frequency of this sound wave have completely escaped the range of normal people." Su Ge was secretly surprised.

"It's been such a troubled time. Being able to go crazy to this level is probably due to some mysterious influence. It seems that my wish to settle things easily cannot be realized."

The security guard here opened the door at the instruction of Griman.

The inside of the warehouse was not as dark as Su Ge imagined, but rather very bright.

The spacious warehouse contains mostly tools for repairing cultural relics, such as knives, plaster, iron powder, etc.

The high wall on the left has many windows, which are facing the southern sun. The curtains have been drawn up, illuminating the warehouse very brightly.

On a weighing pole in the middle, Sugar saw the crazy Joseph.

This is a young man who looks to be in his thirties, with messy blond hair and a lot of beard on his face.

He was wearing a black suit, but it was already covered with dust and blood.

His whole body was tied tightly to the pillar, and even his neck was strangled for safety. The only thing that could move was his head.

But due to the fierce struggle, his skin and the rough rope had been torn, and blood flowed out and rubbed against the thick rope and his clothes.

Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!

At this time, Joseph was not thinking rationally, as the report said. His green eyes were full of madness and chaos, and they were muddy and without focus.

The grinning boss showed off his white teeth, and even the corners of his mouth had cracks due to excessive grinning.

He howled, gritted his teeth, and shook his head, like a eating beast, seeming to be biting something.

Seeing such a strange sight, Su Ge still felt a little guilty. The security guard on the side was frightened and his face was a little pale, and his expression was full of fear.

The old Griman was very calm and asked: "Officer Sotos, can you investigate the cause of his madness?"

Su Ge touched his chin, took out a notebook and pen and asked, "Can you tell me his identity and recent situation?"

Griman nodded and said, "No problem."

"Joseph is a painter. He is thirty-three years old. He is very talented, but because his painting style is too avant-garde, no one cares about it, leading to poverty. I discovered his talent by chance, and then invited him to the museum. , while helping us identify some ancient paintings, he also assisted us in repairing damaged ancient paintings. He has been working here for two years. Although he is a bit introverted and shy, his interpersonal relationships are pretty good and he has good relations with his colleagues. very good."

"Is there anything unusual about him recently?" Su Ge asked after writing down the key points.

Griman thought for a while and said: "There is nothing abnormal. He goes to and from get off work normally every day. Oh, by the way! He seems to be in a bad mood recently and seems to have stayed up late at night. I asked about the situation and he said that he had found inspiration. , has recently started painting again, and he said that this painting will be the highest achievement of his life, and it will attract worldwide attention and make him famous throughout the ages.”

Speaking of this, Griman sighed and said: "There is no way around this. Everyone who engages in art will think that their works will bring them fame and fortune."

Suger nodded and said, "Well, but things are cruel."

"When he got off work last night, he was a little dazed. I thought it was caused by excessive fatigue from staying up late, so I reminded him. He smiled at me and said that he was about to succeed, and then left."

"What happened next?"

"Then this morning, he was late for work. When the museum was open, he wandered here in a trance, and then suddenly went crazy and bit whoever he saw. Finally, he was subdued and we called the police."

Suger looked at the key points recorded in his notebook and thought to himself, "Then the core issue should be the painting he drew."

"But that painting should be in his home. Let me take a look at this guy's situation first."

Suger thought and walked forward with his cane clenched.

"Officer Sotos, be careful. His physical fitness becomes very good after he goes crazy." Griman reminded.

Suger nodded slightly and came to a distance of less than one meter from him.

"Ouch!"

As soon as he approached, Joseph suddenly pounced forward and bit Suger.

Unfortunately, his body was tied up tightly and he couldn't move.

"Let's try the meditation mantra to see if it works!" Su Ge said, skillfully taking out the "Moon Codex" from under his robe, and reading it with a kind and solemn face.
