Chapter I: Crimes by Inhumans
At 3 p.m. on the 15th, a robbery occurred at the Printemps department store just a few steps away from the Louvre, a landmark building in France.
According to a cleaner working at the mall, she was nearby at the time of the incident and the robber was a young man. During the entire robbery, the robber did not have any weapons in his hands, but when he was coercing the salesman to hand over the money, an unknown black flame ignited in the robber's right hand.
Later, after multiple interviews by this reporter, a number of witnesses at the scene confirmed the cleaner's statement.

From October 2132 to April 2133, a number of burglary and homicide cases of extremely bad nature occurred in Henan, Shandong and other places.
At present, after half a year of arduous investigation by the police, a man from Hebei named Wang Tao has finally been listed as a major suspect and is wanted nationwide.
However, the police spokesman also reminded the enthusiastic public that the suspect used to be a Taoist priest in Qingguan on Maoshan Mountain, and he was particularly good at some side spells, so for safety reasons, after discovering the suspect, he should not act rashly, and should call the police in time and wait for the police to come and deal with it.

At 14:20 p.m. on the same day, a terrorist organization calling itself "Inhuman Independents" publicly released the recorded video to the media.
The group claimed responsibility for the recent series of bombings in Liechtenstein and said it was a necessary measure in response to a new unreasonable criminal law issued by the Liechtenstein government three months ago specifically targeting aliens.
In the video, the group's leaders also warned the Liechtenstein government that they would retaliate harsher if the bill was not revoked within a week.

Inhumans generally refer to people with special abilities, usually divided into two types, one is the Inhumans who are born with strange abilities, including paranormals, vampires, werewolves, and orcs, etc., and the other is the Inhumans who rely on certain methods to acquire supernatural powers, such as magicians, druids, and ancient warriors.
Today, in the 22nd century, the existence of Inhumans is no longer a secret.
However, although the appearance of Inhumans has played a role in promoting the development and progress of human beings in some aspects, at the same time, Inhumans have also caused many adverse effects on society because of their special abilities.
In particular, in recent years, the crime rate of aliens has remained high, causing great damage to social stability and tranquility.
In order to cope with the increasingly severe situation, governments have had to set up their own special agencies to deal with cases of crimes committed by strangers, and the Special Security Administration under the Ministry of Public Security is one of them.
On this day, at a noodle restaurant called "Lao Chen Bangbang Noodles" on Caoxi Road, a yellow-haired young man pushed the door in.
At the right time for the meal, the almost full noodle restaurant was noisy one after another, and they were either chatting with their companions or eating noodles alone with their heads bowed, unaware of the arrival of the yellow-haired youth.
Only a few people glanced at the yellow-haired young man as he entered, but then they all quickly looked away.
Standing at the door of the store, the yellow-haired young man looked around, and finally picked a seat in a remote corner by the wall and sat down, followed by the yellow-haired young man raised his hand and beckoned a waitress to him.
"Hello sir, what would you like to eat?" the waitress bowed slightly, a professional smirk on her face.
"Hot sauce noodles with a serving of pickled vegetables and shredded pork. Facing the waitress, the yellow-haired young man was expressionless, and replied in a very fast and low voice.
"Okay sir, a total of 20 yuan, do you want to pay in cash? or scan the code?"
If the noodles are not served, they have to pay first, which makes the short-tempered yellow-haired young man very unhappy, but the yellow-haired young man is hiding something in his heart at this time and doesn't want to be verbose with the waitress, so he didn't say anything, and directly took out twenty yuan and handed it to the waitress.
"Thank you, sir, the noodles will come soon, please wait!"
Glancing at the bewitching back of the waitress, the yellow-haired young man withdrew his gaze, lowered his head to his chest, and looked at the ground in a daze, looking preoccupied.
"Lao Li, have you heard that there is a person in the nearby and Xinhuayuan. ”
"Of course I heard it, this is big news, it is said that the death was a woman, and she died a miserable death, and her head and body were separated. ”
"Is that old Li? So mysterious! How do you know so well? Who said it? It can't be made up, right?"
"What kind of nonsense? Lao Zhang, am I that kind of person? Let me tell you, one of my son's classmates is a policeman from our police station, and he is the one who told me about my son!"
"Oh, that means what you say is true!"
"Of course! Look, that's not what the TV on the wall is!"
Just when the yellow-haired young man was in a daze, the conversation between two middle-aged people at the next table suddenly caught his attention.
The yellow-haired young man looked up and looked around, and sure enough, he saw an LCD TV hanging on the wall to his right.
On TV, a presenter in a suit and leather shoes is sitting behind a news table and talking.
On the screen behind the host, a photo of a woman is shown.
Although for privacy reasons, the news station marked the photo with a mosaic so that people could not see the face of the woman in the photo.
But when the yellow-haired young man saw the photo, the corners of his eyes still twitched unconsciously, because he was very familiar with the person in this photo.
The yellow-haired young man's name is Hao Jun, 29 years old, and he is the head of commodities at a well-known trading company, while the woman in the photo on TV is named Wang Xiaoli, who is Hao Jun's girlfriend, or former girlfriend.
Because Wang Xiaoli died just three days ago, and it was Hao Jun who killed her.
The story is roughly like this, the day of the crime happened to be Wang Xiaoli's birthday, although Hao Jun, who had been busy in the company for a day, felt very tired, he still hurried to Wang Xiaoli's rented apartment alone with the gifts prepared in advance.
It should be a very happy thing for a boyfriend to have the heart to help him celebrate his birthday, but for some reason, Wang Xiaoli's interest has not been high that day, no matter what sweet words Hao Jun said to make her happy, Wang Xiaoli looked like she loved to ignore it.
This came and went, and Hao Jun was not a very good-tempered person, so Hao Jun couldn't help but complain to Wang Xiaoli, saying that she was too cold to herself and didn't care about herself at all.
Unexpectedly, Hao Jun just complained casually, but after Wang Xiaoli heard it, she immediately exploded as if she had eaten gunpowder, and she counted Hao Jun well, and even turned over all the unpleasant things they had in the past.
At first, Hao Jun was still a little confused, he didn't know what was wrong with his girlfriend, so he listened with a smile and swallowed his anger, but later, the more Wang Xiaoli spoke, the more unpleasant it became, and finally Hao Jun, who couldn't bear it, began to have a fierce quarrel between Wang Xiaoli.
After this quarrel, Hao Jun gradually lost his mind, and when he came to his senses again, he found that Wang Xiaoli had fallen in a pool of blood.
Looking at his girlfriend's corpse, Hao Jun's mind seemed to be entangled in a mess, and it went blank in an instant.
At that moment, Hao Jun also had the idea of turning himself in, but when Hao Jun thought that once he really turned himself in, it was likely that he would be greeted by a prison career for the rest of his life, and Hao Jun immediately retreated.
He was still young, he still had so many good things to go through, and he didn't want to ruin his entire life because of a mistake he made on the spur of the moment.
So in the end, Hao Jun chose to fake the scene and chose to escape.
Perhaps because of Hao Jun's good luck, although the police also found him after the incident, they didn't seem to be suspicious of him, so he was still "at large" until this moment.
"Lao Li, then who do you think killed that woman? ”
"I don't know, but I guess it's the woman's enemy who did it. ”
"Oh, how do you say?"
"What a revenge it is, that woman died so miserably, even her head was cut off!"
"Oh, I don't have to! I think it's anyone! You see the yellow-haired young man behind us looking weird, it's suspicious. ”
The photo of Wang Xiaoli appearing on TV has made the weak-hearted Hao Jun extremely frightened, and the next conversation between the two middle-aged uncles at the next table made Hao Jun's heart tremble.
Hao Jun didn't care about the strange eyes of others, got up from the chair with a rub, and rushed out of the restaurant with a quick step.
"Sir, haven't you eaten the noodles yet?" At this time, the waitress just now happened to come over with the hot sauce noodles ordered by Hao Jun, but she saw Hao Jun passing by without looking back, and couldn't help shouting at Hao Jun's back in surprise.
It's good that the waitress didn't shout, but this shout, Hao Jun's steps became more urgent, and when he approached the door, he almost tripped over a trash can by the table.
Coming out of the noodle shop, Hao Jun ran all the way, running a distance of one or two hundred meters in one breath before stopping at an intersection.
"Whew-" Hao Jun breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the empty street, and the fear in his heart finally gradually dissipated.
But before Hao Jun's mood was completely relaxed, suddenly he heard a "woo woo" siren behind his head, as if a police car was speeding towards him from far and near.
"It's over!" Hao Jun thought that the police were driving a police car to arrest him, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, his face turned pale suddenly, and his body began to tremble involuntarily.
"Z", the car tires made a fierce friction sound against the ground, and the police car coming from behind Hao Jun did not stop, but sped away directly from Hao Jun.
It turned out to be just a false alarm, but at this moment, Hao Jun was already soaked in cold sweat.
With heavy steps, Hao Jun walked in the direction of home, and as he walked, he kept an eye on the movements around him from time to time, for fear that the police would suddenly appear.
But sometimes he was really afraid that something would come, walking on the sidewalk, Hao Jun suddenly saw that at the next intersection, a traffic policeman stopped a passerby, as if he was interrogating something.
Seeing this, Hao Jun's first reaction was to turn around and run, but it may be that the traffic policeman sensed Hao Jun's gaze, so before Hao Jun could turn around, he already looked at him.
What should I do? Hao Jun's heart beat wildly, if he chose to turn around and run away, he would definitely not be able to run far, because there was a police motorcycle parked next to the traffic policeman.
If you walk towards the policeman, if it is really revealed that you have killed Wang Xiaoli, it will not be a self-defeating net.
Under the dilemma of the two phases, Hao Jun's forehead couldn't help sweating, and his brain was running rapidly, thinking about what choice he should make.
In the end, Hao Jun still thinks that even if the police can find out that Wang Xiaoli was killed by him, it is impossible to be so fast, and it was also said in the news just now that the case is being solved, which means that he should be safe at least for the time being.
Forget it!
Having come to this conclusion in his heart, Hao Jun gritted his teeth and tried to continue walking forward as if nothing had happened.
When Hao Jun passed by the traffic police at the intersection, he only felt that his nervous heart was about to jump out of his chest.
Fortunately, Hao Jun was glad that nothing had happened, and the traffic policeman didn't even look at him when he passed by.
Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the community where he lived, Hao Jun's steps unconsciously became faster and faster, although the police could also go to his house to find him at any time, but when a person is in trouble, home can always bring people an inexplicable sense of security.
But as he walked, Hao Jun suddenly felt as if someone had been following him behind him, but when Hao Jun looked back, there was nothing behind him, and there was no one.
Is it your own delusion?
Hao Jun shook his head, he has been in a state of high tension all the time in the past few days, just like when he met the police car and the traffic policeman just now, but whenever there is a little wind and grass, he is like the frightened bird, the wind is loud.
This kind of panic and anxiety days make people feel like they are in hell, and Hao Jun is about to go crazy.
Hao Jun didn't know how long such a day would last, but the only thing he knew was that this was the price he had to bear for committing a mistake and not accepting legal punishment.
