Skeleton Detective Novels & Stories

But instead of softening their hearts, it only enraged them further. "Why are you crying? It's not like Grace is dead! Get out of here! I don't want to see you!" Overcome with guilt and grief, my parents called in a forensic expert to determine where I had lived. The examination confirmed that the dilapidated room had indeed been my residence. However, the bloodstains revealed a chilling truth—I had been dead for over a year. Hearing this, my parents collapsed on the spot, overcome by the weight of the revelation.

He’s pouring me a glass of wine I didn't order. Maybe it will make my blood more palatable when he drains me. I’m beyond caring. A glass of wine seems like the least I’ve earned tonight. "I have no power over the actions of the hunters, but a site can be encouraged to hold no findings. I employ people who are very good at removing evidence. It's most of my payroll." "By dawn?" "Do you know what kind of monster it was?" "No. But I have a description. A twenty foot tall skeleton built from human skeletal remains. Silver bolts bounced off it. There were wolves involved with taking it down."

Instead, he said casually, "I'll take back what belongs to me." "There's nothing that belongs to you!" The three experts fiercely attacked. Since they had come out, it was impossible for the skeleton to achieve his goal. As they said, there was nothing that the skeleton was looking for here. "Don't talk so much nonsense with him. Just suppress... no, suppress and kill him!" The human skeleton did not say much to them. He did not come here today to talk nonsense with them. Moreover, whether he could come back or there was nothing here that belonged to him, it was not up to them to decide!

Suyi thought that the beast she would be fighting was the same as the ones she had fought for the past few minutes. But it seemed that she was doomed to fail the very first mission she took. Although souls can no longer die except being dissolved to nothingness, against a beast, they could be captured and trapped as a source for their power. It is either you kill the beast, or the beast will suck your soul away. Right now she is fighting a beast called Cerberus, it is a giant 3 headed dog, they are strong creatures but they are not rare individuals, unlike unicorns or phoenixes and faes.

I stated. "That's because I don't have one," the voice joked, then in the far end of the corner, a figure appeared. It was covered in a dark trench coat. It also sported a black top hat. It strode closer to us, tapping its cane on the ground. The sound its bare feet made was like bone hitting asphalt. A shaft of moonlight hits the figure reflecting only a yellowed white colour off the surface of its face. It was a skeleton, just as tall as the ones seen in any Biology room but this one moved as smoothly as a well-conditioned athlete. Its head swivelled as it surveyed the scene with its coal-black sockets.

They didn't receive any responses for the messages they sent too. Samuel's emotions spiraled out of control. In a trembling voice, he asked, "How could they die just like that? How could someone die at home without anyone else noticing?" The private investigator sighed, clearly reluctant to deliver the harsh details he uncovered. "It's been a while, so much of Ms. Zucker's information is difficult to trace. According to the village committee, it seems she developed a systemic infection after donating her bone marrow. As for the child… he starved to death. He stayed with his mother's body for several days. It was terrible."

No. The department must be trusted. And the agency should send reliable people to work there. He closed all the windows with his mouse. - All open... you are a detective and you leave evidence like this? Maybe I do need a break. Without realizing it, he missed the slip of a criminal.

As the skeletons fell out, everyone was taken aback. There wasn’t just one set of skeletons, but a few. “Oh, my God! There are so many sets of skeletons!” When Rey saw this, he exclaimed. “There must be more than one corpse here!” Gerald reminded Harold. As an inspector, Harold would naturally be able to see that. He was equally shocked. He didn’t expect that there were still so many corpses hidden inside the Hoklux Gang. No wonder Gerald had said that there was a strong aura of resentment here. It seemed to be true.

I crossed the room toward the skeleton. Something crunched under my foot. I looked down and cringed when I saw Nina’s phone on the floor, its screen cracked now. “Shit…” I whispered, stooping to pick it up. I’d have to replace that. When I looked up from the broken phone, the skeleton was starting to twitch again. I stormed over to it and grabbed it off the stand, pinning it down to one of the tables by its neck. “Who sent you, and why?” I growled, to which the bewitched skeleton only chuckled.

The third skeleton stated, staring at us both. “Yes, I agree. I haven’t forgotten.” “Alright, I will be the first person you’ll attend to as you already know.” The first skeleton said, in what seemed like a smile. “Your first mission is to get me a newborn baby’s heart.” He said, playing with his skull fingers. “What! A newborn baby?” Daniel exclaimed, looking baffled. “Oh, my goodness. How on earth are we supposed to do that? We aren’t murderers.” I said, hoping he would change his mind and give us something much better.
