Chapter 1582: I’ll send you away, a thousand miles away
On the desolate and deserted beach, a broken foot in a shoe suddenly appeared, half buried in the beach ... This kind of secret room murder in the broad sense should have appeared in the plot of the death god primary school students, but it had appeared in front of Zhang Zian.
There was only one truth, and the murderer was ... Anyway, it could not be Zhang Zian.
Ever since the discovery of this broken leg, the atmosphere between the elves and the wolves had been a little subtle. After all, although the elves here looked down on humans in various ways, eating humans was still ... Somewhat unacceptable.
Dharma was stuck in the middle, and it felt very difficult to handle.
The wolves also felt the strange atmosphere, but they didn’t understand why.
Zhang Zian tried to smooth things over.”You’re thinking too much. The owner of this shoe obviously died in the sea and then was washed up to the shore. It wasn’t the wolf.”
The Elfins were stunned. They were prejudiced and wary of wolves, so they didn’t think of this. However, it seemed a little too much to say that the man died in the sea just because his leg was half-buried in the sand. The probability of him dying on land was obviously higher than in the sea.
This broken foot was wearing hiking shoes, so it might also be a traveler, or at least a traveler. Even if a traveler saw the sea and wanted to swim in the water, he wouldn’t go in with his shoes, right?
Besides, the cold current of the Pacific Ocean passed through the coast of California. Even in Midsummer, few people were willing to go into the water to swim. The sea here was really only for viewing from afar.
Zhang Zian knew that he couldn’t win the Elfins ‘trust with just his conclusion, so he added,””In fact, it’s not new to find a broken foot on the West Coast of the United States. In addition to the broken foot in front of us, the last broken foot was found on the beach of dock Island in Washington, thousands of kilometers away from here, during New Year’s Day in 2019 ... We are now in Northern California, bordering Oregon, and farther north of Oregon is Washington.”
Before he came to the mahogany forest, he had learned about the dangers of trekking in the forest so that he could be prepared. When he was looking up information, he saw a report about the mystery of broken feet on the beach on the West Coast of the United States
In the past ten years, starting from August 2007, people wearing shoes with broken feet were frequently found near the coast bordering the United States and Canada. There was even a TV series with this theme. Whether it was the TV series ‘scriptwriter, scientists, or even detectives, all of them racked their brains to find a reasonable explanation for the source of these broken feet.
The scientists believed that the ocean current had brought the broken foot to the shore. As for the other parts of the body, they had either been devoured or decomposed by the Marine creatures in the sea. The broken foot was not to the liking of the Marine creatures because of the existence of the shoes. It had been floating on the surface of the sea and was eventually washed to the beach because the current shoes were light and buoyant.
It sounded reasonable, but it still couldn’t explain the key question. Why did the baby start in August 2007? why didn’t such a thing happen in the past years?
Only a few of these broken feet had been identified. There was a special page on Wikipedia that recorded in detail the time, location, accurate coordinates, shoe style, size, characteristics, and so on when these broken feet were found. They hoped that one day, the owners of these broken feet would be found by their families.
This kind of gimmicky news would always attract people’s attention, and Zhang Zian was no exception. At that time, he was just casually browsing through it. He did not expect to see a broken foot on the beach with his own eyes.
Before this, no one had ever found a broken foot in a place so far south, but this was not surprising. This was because the place where a broken foot had been found was a noisy beach near the city. People often walked their dogs or strolled on the beach, so it was easy to find unusual objects. The mahogany forest was too desolate. It was impossible for a person to walk along the beach for several years, so it was reasonable that no one had found a broken foot before.
He took out his phone and took a picture of the broken leg, at the same time recording the coordinates. When he left the mahogany forest, he uploaded the picture, and the relevant page on the Wikipedia would have to be edited again.
No one could give a reasonable explanation for the source of the broken leg. Although there were speculations such as suicide, drowning, plane crash, and shipwrecking, if the key time point of August 2007 was taken into account, no one could explain why no one found a broken leg on the beach before August 2007.
Taking into account the time, the most reasonable explanation was that a criminal organization established in 2007 had thrown the victims ‘bodies into the sea to cover up their crimes. They dumped the bodies at a fixed location, and the ocean currents would bring the sea water and bodies to a specific direction, such as the beach at the border of the United States and Canada.
Zhang Zian explained these facts and rumors to the Elfins, and a new idea came to his and the Elfins ‘minds: When was Peter Lee’s suspicious organization established?
They knew very little about Peter Lee, him, and the organization, but during their trip to Egypt, when they were camping at night, he occasionally heard Peter Lee and his team members talking loudly, probably deliberately trying to attract young girls like he he on the expedition team. They talked about how their society had been established for more than a decade, which was almost consistent with 2007, and that this was their old nest ...
If Zhang Zian’s guess was right, the crimes of Peter Lee and the others were not only illegal detainment ... They might even include murder.
For those who were tricked to come here but refused to be brainwashed, would Peter Lee keep them and always prevent them from escaping? For Peter Lee, who even found it troublesome to raise deer, it probably wouldn ‘t. He might not have killed them directly, but as long as they were not provided with sufficient food and medicine, they would not live long.
After those people died of unnatural death, such as illness or starvation, Peter Lee ordered people to throw their bodies into the sea to destroy the evidence. This was a good way to cover up, but he did not expect that the ocean current did not bring the bodies to the deep sea, but to the border between the United States and Canada.
However, it didn’t matter. It was difficult for people to associate a broken foot with a criminal activity thousands of kilometers away. Unfortunately, the Justice was long and loose, and Zhang Zian, who had come here, found clues of the crime.
As for why the broken foot was here, it could also be simply explained. It was because it had not been taken away in time. Perhaps the next tide would roll the broken foot back to the sea, wrapped in the current and brought to the North.
This was his guess. Although he thought it was reasonable, he still needed evidence to prove it. Otherwise, it could only be called a delusion.
