Chapter 388 Space Marines Never Leave Alive

"Innsmouth? I haven't heard of it."

Neil smoked his pipe and shook his head.

"Have you heard of Jamie Iverson?"

Lu Mingfei asked again.

Jamie Iverson is the name on the crew ID.

"No, there is no such person in our town."

This time Neil said firmly without thinking much.

He has lived in the town all his life and knows the situation of all residents well.

"Look at this photo."

Lu Mingfei took out a somewhat yellowed photo.

Decades ago, Randolph Carter was not an investigator, and he did not get to the bottom of the story about the crew's origins.

Later, due to other more interesting events, this incident was put into the corner of my memory.

If they hadn't asked about it, he might not have remembered such an experience until he was writing his memoirs.

However, Randolph Carter was certainly not completely unprepared.

Before cremation, he took photos of the crew with his camera.

"Isn't this Sean? How come you have his photo?"

Neil said in surprise.

"Is this someone from your town?"

Lu Mingfei did not answer his question.

"Yes, he is from our town, but he left the town when he was a teenager and went to work outside, and never came back. Is he dead?"

Neil asked calmly.

"Yes."

"What did he do outside? Where did he die?"

Neil asked again.

"Worked as a seaman and died in a hospital in Australia."

Lu Mingfei replied.

"An unexpected ending."

Neil curled his lips.

There will always be young people like Sean in the town who are unwilling to be lonely, but in the end there are very few who return home in glory.

"Does he have family in town?"

Lu Mingfei asked again.

"Yes. Why are you asking about this?"

Neil became wary again.

"That's right. Professor Randolph Carter, the vice president of our college, was Sean's good friend during his lifetime. After his death, his body was cremated according to his will."

"Now Professor Carter wants to send Sean's ashes back to his hometown for burial, so he entrusted us to investigate first."

Connie explained on his behalf.

"So that's it. I asked how could anyone come to a small place like ours to investigate."

Neil chuckled.

"We are mainly here for research. This is a side mission. However,"

Connie argued.

"Okay, no need to say more, I will take you to Marsh's house."

Neil looked like he had seen through everything.

The Marsh family was once a prominent family in the town, and one-third of the village's property belonged to his family.

But starting more than a hundred years ago, the situation of the Marsh family took a turn for the worse. By Sean Marsh's generation, there was nothing left except the ancestral mansion.

This is probably why Sean Marsh wants to go out and make a career.

This was Neil's guess, but Lu Mingfei felt that there was something else hidden.

The town is not very big, so a group of people walked for more than ten minutes and arrived at Arthur Street on the south side.

This street was once a mansion area, and several famous families lived here.

However, as times change, even conservative people like Neil prefer to live in the north of the town near the highway, and the place has become deserted.

Up to now, apart from a few poor people, the only people who are still willing to live here are the Marsh family.

"Well, the biggest house is their home."

Neil pointed to the five-story mansion at the end of the street.

"It's not easy for them either. The little money they earn is spent on repairing their houses."

He sighed.

When the Marsh family was still wealthy, they didn't do much arrogance, so the people in the town couldn't say they hated their family, but at most they were a little gloating about their misfortune.

"The Marsh family is also stubborn and refuses to let us help every time they repair the house. We have been neighbors for hundreds of years, so there is nothing shameful about this."

Neil shook his head at the Marsh family's insistence on saving face and suffering.

But Lu Mingfei heard something different.

Not letting people in the town help repair the house may be due to pride or fear of exposing some secrets.

At this moment, his ears suddenly twitched slightly.

"There's a car moving."

Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang said almost at the same time.

"Brother Chu Zihang, lead a company to chase him."

He said immediately.

Since the number of members in the battle group increased, Lu Mingfei organized the combat members.

The first one is Fingal, Eri Yi, Minamoto Young Girl, Zero.

The second company is Akina Sakai, May, Thakar, and Xia Mi.

"yes."

Chu Zihang immediately charged in the direction of the sound of the car with his company.

Lu Mingfei, on the other hand, led the Second Company and rushed towards the Marsh family's mansion.

"You guys are, uh."

Neil was shocked and just about to question, he was hit hard on the back of the head.

Connie Windsor retracted his knife and caught the limp mayor.

"Mr. Mayor, please have a good sleep."

He said, and then looked in the direction where the two waves of people were heading.

"What a terrifying hearing. Could it be that Lu Mingfei's speaking spirit is Kama Itachi? But isn't Chu Zihang's speaking spirit Jun Yan? Why can he hear it too?"

Connie was a little confused, but he suppressed his curiosity.

The task assigned to him by the patriarch is to accompany Lu Mingfei and solve the problems they encounter within his authority. He will not do anything unnecessary.

The intelligence Connie learned showed that anyone who did unnecessary things would end badly.

Lu Mingfei directly knocked away the heavy door of the mansion, and the oak door more than ten centimeters thick was shattered directly.

He looked around the hall. Several people with firearms were hiding in the corner, looking at him nervously.

"You broke into the house illegally and we have called the police. Get out or we will shoot."

The leader of the middle-aged man shouted, his voice slightly distorted due to fear.

"Are you sure the police are here to arrest you?"

Lu Mingfei mocked.
