Chapter 250: Full Moon, Investigation, Tailing
The bandaged man stroked his chin, his exposed eyes full of contemplation.
He carefully recalled the whereabouts of the mummy, but it was just as Kogoro Mori said, they had not seen him since they gathered.
It did not appear until Captain Gold was killed.
But the mummy said that he went to the toilet and ran past them when he came out of the toilet.
Wait, ran past? The bandaged man frowned. The one who ran past them was clearly a werewolf?
Why did the mummy also say that he ran past them?
And he said he was going to order a Silver Bullet at the bar, unless his memory was confused and the one drinking it at the bar was a werewolf...
Wait, Silver Bullet?
The bandaged man suddenly widened his eyes and looked at the werewolf with surprise.
At this time, the monk with a Tang umbrella pulled the clothes of the bandaged monster.
The two looked at each other, nodded at the same time, turned around and left.
Everyone else's attention was on Kogoro Mori and the mummy. Only a few people noticed their departure, but they didn't care too much. After taking a quick look, they continued looking at the mummy.
The two men came to the bathroom. The bandaged man looked around and his eyes fell on the broken mirror on the sink.
He asked, "Was the mirror broken when you came here?"
The monk Tang San nodded: "Yes, maybe it was broken on purpose to create a scary atmosphere?"
"Is that so?" The bandaged man did not comment. He walked over and looked into the pool. His brows moved slightly. He reached out his hand and touched it, then rubbed his fingers, and his gaze finally fell on the mirror.
"It seems that things are not as simple as they seem." The bandaged man said meaningfully.
"What do you mean?" The monk Tang San was too short to reach the pond and could only look up at him.
The bandaged man squatted down and spread out two fingers in front of Tang Sanzang, allowing him to see the debris on his fingers: "Look..."
"What is this?!" The one-eyed creature in front of the monk Tang Sanzan trembled and made a surprised sound.
The two of them came to the deck again and walked around the mast where Captain Gode was hanging. Tang San suddenly found a strange mark on the deck, but it was inconvenient for him to squat down, so he could only shout: "Hey, H... Kudo, come and take a look at this!"
The bandaged weirdo hurried over and saw the foreign object as Tang Sanzan's signal indicated. He squatted down, touched it with his finger, then put it under his nose and smelled it, and immediately showed a disgusted expression.
He wanted to hit Tang San Xiaoseng, but found that hitting him would ruin his costume, so he had no choice but to give up and cursed: "You bastard, you actually let me smell shit?"
"Ah?" Tangshan monk was obviously stunned, "What shit?"
"Shit! Chicken shit!" The bandaged weirdo rubbed his fingers on the Tang Umbrella monk with disgust, causing him to scream strangely.
"Don't rub it on me!"
"Stop talking nonsense. If it weren't for you, would I have come across this thing?"
"Stop it! Wow!!!"
The two of them played around for a while, and the monk with the Tang umbrella suddenly asked, "Did you see any chickens when you were on the boat?"
The bandaged man was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "No, I turned around and didn't see anything..." His voice gradually became lower, and he suddenly looked up.
There is a lookout tower there, and it seems to be located right above where Captain Gold is hanging. I guess he was standing on that lookout tower giving instructions to the monsters before he was killed?
Thinking of this, the bandaged man climbed up the rope ladder.
"Be careful!" The monk with Tang umbrella reminded loudly from below.
"I know, I'm not as weak as you." The bandaged man said without turning his head. He was agile and approached the observation tower in the blink of an eye.
“???” I care about you, what are you talking about?
This guy doesn't usually talk like this. Is he in disguise, so like me, he's releasing some of his true nature?
Tang Sanzan was stunned. He subconsciously wanted to refute, but when he thought of the opponent's fighting strength and the two people around him, he suddenly fell silent.
Compared with them, I am powerless, right?
"Hey, whoosh!" The bandaged man climbed up to the observation deck easily with an effort, then looked at a rooster on the observation deck in astonishment.
The rooster was frightened by the bandaged man and flapped its wings towards him.
The bandaged man subconsciously wanted to dodge, but suddenly found that the rooster's feet were tied with a rope.
The bandaged man stared at the rooster, thoughts flying through his mind. After a moment, the corners of his mouth under the mask slowly curled up.
"That's what's going on." He muttered softly, a confident smile on his face.

Back to earlier times
Judy came to the old house, but found that the lights were off and it seemed that no one was inside.
She was a little confused and tried to press the doorbell, but after waiting for a long time, no one came out to open the door.
"What's going on? Isn't she home?" Judy was a little confused. She suddenly realized something. "Could she have been captured by Vermouth? How did she get ahead of me?"
She was about to take out her cell phone when she noticed a car driving up behind her.
Judy subconsciously looked over and found that the person driving was Tomoaki Niide.
What's going on? Why is she here? If she is here, where did that girl go?
Tomoaki Shinide stopped the car, rolled down the window and poked his head out in confusion: "Hey, Teacher Judy? Why are you here?"
"Ah!" Judy smiled, "I just happened to pass by here, so I thought of stopping by to see how Mio was doing, but it seemed like no one was home."
"Doctor Shinide know anything?"
Shinide Tomoaki shook his head: "Well, I just happened to pass by, so I don't know for sure."
"Is that so..." Judy looked at Aizawa Tomoaki with deep eyes.
Shinide Tomoaki seemed to be unaware of this and said with a smile, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Judy nodded and watched in silence as Tomoaki Arata's car left.
She frowned, took out her cell phone to make a call, then got in the car and followed.
"Xiu, that girl isn't at home, and I met Tomoaki Aride, and I'm following her now..."
"I see. It seems someone got there before you." Akai Shuichi's slightly low voice came. He was silent for a moment and said, "Follow her first. Report to me in time if there is any situation."
"I understand." Judy hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and stared at the car in front.
What the driver didn't notice was that when she was following behind Tomoaki Araido, a taxi also followed not far behind her.
"Driver, please follow closely!" the girl in the back seat said to the driver nervously.
"Oh! Don't worry! I will definitely not lose you!" The driver didn't know what he was thinking about, and he looked very excited.
What the girl and the driver didn't notice was that there was also a taxi following behind their car.
Just like that, the four cars drove forward one after another like a string of candied haws, heading somewhere.
