"Dick, the deceased, was a friend of the same school as Duncan, who had committed suicide before. His mother knocked on his door during dinner and saw the scene before her..."

Yushu Street, at the home of the deceased.

The town sheriff looked at the body lying on the bed covered in blood, and moved his eyes away with a look of unbearable expression and introduced the situation of the case to Amanda and Agent Zhou beside him.

Frowning, he walked to the corpse.

Agent Zhou stretched out his glove-wearing palm and flipped the wound on the boy's body, while opening his mouth to make an analysis.

"There are multiple wounds on his body, but none of them are fatal injuries. It seems that he had suffered cruel murder before his death. The murderer enjoyed this process..."

"Oh, poor kid."

Hearing the analysis of Agent Zhou, the town sheriff shook his head.

"Didn't anyone find the abnormality of the deceased?"

His eyes swept over the boy's bloody corpse, and it was hard for Amanda to imagine that while suffering so many injuries, no one in the deceased's home discovered this.

"No, the mother of the deceased has been downstairs, but no sound has been heard in the room."

"Fatal injury was found."

Turning open the outer cloak of the boy's body, Agent Zhou looked at the wound in his heart and spoke silently.

"The wounds penetrated by a sharp blade in the heart appear to be caused by a dagger or similar weapon."

Squatting beside the deceased's bed, looking at the traces around him, Agent Zhou's frowning not only did not stretch at all, but instead became a little deeper.

"But this is unreasonable. There is no trace of struggle around the deceased. Even the pillow on the bed remains the same, which is completely inconsistent with the bloody wound on his body."

It is hard for Agent Zhou to imagine that when he suffered such cruel injuries, the victim himself showed no sign of struggle.

"Maybe, this is not the first crime scene."

In this case, Agent Zhou only thought about a possibility.

That is, the boy was moved back to the bed by the murderer after he was killed elsewhere.

However, if this is done, with the boy's bloody appearance, even if he is careful, he will definitely leave blood nearby.

However, Agent Zhou's eyes swept across the room, but no blood was left behind.

It was like the boy was killed by the murderer directly on the bed.

"Or, this is the first crime scene."

Facing the suspicion of Agent Zhou, Amanda, who had been observing the body silently, spoke.

She stepped forward and turned the boy's face and looked at the remaining look of fear on his face stained with blood.

"…and the murderer is not the human we expected."

"You mean?!"

Hearing Amanda's words, Agent Zhou reacted instantly and looked at the boy's body.

The purpose of the two of them came to Chunmu Town on this trip.

There is no doubt that the death of the boy in front of him is the cause of supernatural power.

And for this supernatural existence, in fact, they had clues before.

Freddy, the wronged soul of the unknown case twenty years ago in Chunmu Town.

...

"How about it, two police officers, have you made any major discoveries about this death case?"

After comforting the deceased's parents, the town sheriff returned to the room where the body of the murder case was.

Looking at the body lying on the bed, even though it was not the first time I saw it, the sheriff still expressed great discomfort.

He turned his head and tried his best not to see the bloody corpse, and said at the same time: "There has never been such a brutal case in Chunmu Town. I need your help."

"So, what was the case twenty years ago?"

Hearing the sheriff's words, Agent Zhou suddenly spoke up for an inquiry.

“…”

When he heard the case mentioned by the detective Zhou, the expression on the sheriff's face suddenly appeared in a panic.

Then, he tried to calm down and said, "Twenty years ago, I don't know what you were talking about, police officer, twenty years ago, that was a long time ago, who still remembers it clearly."

"Freddy."

Looking at the sheriff in front of him, Agent Zhou pronounced Freddy's name.

“…”

Hearing the name that appeared from the mouth of the detective Zhou, the expression on the sheriff's face that was trying hard to maintain finally loosened.

He glanced at the agent Zhou in front of him, then turned to look at Amanda beside him.

Then he sighed and said silently: "I don't know where you heard the police officer with this name, but I can tell you for sure that Freddy is definitely not a good memory for Chunmu Town."

"Can you tell me about the case twenty years ago and Freddy's incident?"

From the sheriff's tone, Amanda realized that Freddy's case twenty years ago might be a little different from what they thought.

Faced with Amanda's questioning, the sheriff's eyes unconsciously glanced at the corpse on the bed. The appearance of the boy's body made him recall some ungood memories.

Then he recalled: "Freddy Kruger, who was once a well-known middle class in Chunmu Town. He came to settle down in the town when Chunmu Town was the most prosperous and the mining industry was the most prosperous. At that time, he bought a factory on Yushu Street in the town to process the mined ore. Because of this, he established a good relationship with the residents of the town. After all, in Chunmu Town at that time, 80% of the families relied on mining for a living."

"... Everyone thought that Freddy came to Chunmu Town to earn wealth through minerals. No one expected that what he had hidden under his kind appearance was a demon who did everything. Since Freddy moved to the town, the child disappeared, but no one suspected Freddy at that time. Until an accident, Freddy's true face was discovered by everyone. It turned out that the missing children in Chunmu Town were brutally murdered by this demon."

"Freddy was arrested because of the secret of murder, but later he used the power of his money to bribe the judge and was acquitted in the final trial. Faced with such a trial result, the parents of the Elm Street who could not bear it would have been judged by Freddy, burned him to death at home, and avenged the children who died tragically at his hands."

"Although Freddy was finally punished as he deserved, the dead children would never come back. Because of Freddy's blow, coupled with the depletion of mineral resources, those heartbroken parents chose to leave Chunmu Town, a painful place, and the town fell down..."
