Chapter 6: First Meeting
!
Wu Xijin only felt his head buzz.
I need to get out of here!
Almost at the same time, out of the corner of his eye, Wu Xijin saw three men in the same uniform walking towards his own courtyard, and the man in uniform was followed by a lady, who was talking to one of the leaders as she walked.
The police?
I was notified to the police by a neighbor about my return!
Run now?
No, calm down!
I'm not good at escaping, I don't know much about the world, and there's no guarantee that there will be high-level powerhouses in Baner Town who are good at fighting or tracking.
There are 3 policemen here, who are not in a hurry or impatient, and the other party does not seem to treat them as murderers?
Thinking of this, Wu Xijin decided to take a gamble.
He quickly chewed and swallowed the envelope in a ball, and at the same time his hands were not idle, shoving the opened books back into their original positions.
As soon as he had done all this, he heard three even footsteps at his door.
"Mr. Wu Qi, I am the sheriff of Banby Town-shocked, in response to the murder of your family of five, I hope you can go with us to the Public Security Bureau to assist in the investigation. β
Wu Xijin: Hiss~
......
The Public Security Bureau is located on Erdao Street, not far from Sidao Street, where Wu used to be and is now located.
Wu used to know now that the people who maintain order in Grouper Town are not called policemen, but are called sheriffs. During the ten minutes on the road, Wu Xijin chatted with the shock, obtained some useful information, and verified many of his previous guesses.
The Public Security Bureau received a report at 6 a.m. this morning and took away the five bodies after collecting evidence at the scene of the crime.
Of the five bodies, four had their hearts gouged out, and only one female body remained intact, while Wu Qi, a member of the family, was missing.
Because it was too early, most of the magistrates had not yet gone to work, and they had only done the simplest evidence collection for Wu Qi's family.
The expert preliminarily judged that this was a purposeful burglary and homicide case, with more than 3 perpetrators, agile skills, clear motives, and relatively proficient homicide procedures.
Due to Wu Qi's disappearance, the Public Security Bureau explained to the nearby households, and reported it in time after seeing Wu Qi come back.
Perhaps because Wu Xijin came back with his stomach covered and looked like he had been injured, the Public Security Bureau did not directly list Wu Xijin as a criminal suspect after receiving the report, but regarded him as a victim and sent three experienced sheriffs to 'invite' Wu Xijin back.
Of course, if Wu Xijin is arrested and escapes in the process, it will be another story.
The Sheriff's Bureau is a 4-storey building with a large area of land.
Led by shock, Wu Xijin walked into an office called the 'Special Intelligence Division'.
"Sir, Mr. Wu Qi is here. Shocked.
Wu Xijin put his eyes into the office, this senior looked to be in his early 30s, close to 190cm tall, very strong, under a dark blue uniform suit, Wu Xijin could even see the edges and corners of his muscles.
In the previous chat, Zhongwu already knew that he was an investigator sent by Sky City 5 days ago, and he was on a mission in and around Grouper. Arriving with them were 100 'Lions' warriors belonging to Sky City.
As for what Sky City was, Wu Xijin didn't know, and he didn't dare to ask.
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Biwen, and I am the person in charge of your case, please take a seat. Biwen pointed to the couch, his voice steady, but not very heavy.
"Thank you. β
Wu Xijin didn't say much, and found a place to sit down with Shock.
"We have one more person to wait. Biwen seemed to have a lot of work to do, and after throwing down this sentence, he put Wu Xijin aside and got busy with himself.
Wu Xijin waited there quietly, until more than twenty minutes later, the office door was knocked on again.
"Sir, the advisor has arrived, in the large conference room. Another sheriff said.
"Got it. β
Bi Wen replied, and wrote a few more strokes in the notebook before getting up and saying to Wu Xijin, "Please come with me." β
Turning right upstairs, Wu Xijin saw the conference room.
This large meeting room is on the 3rd floor, which is enough for the layout of the tennis court to perfectly interpret the word "big" in the "big conference room", and the south-facing floor-to-ceiling windows let the morning sunlight just shine on the floor, which brings warmth without showing heat.
Stepping into the conference room, Wu Xijin's gaze naturally fell on the center of the whole pictureβa slender back.
She wore a light blue slim-fitting professional uniform, her long black hair draped over her shoulders with just the right curvature, and her back, waist, hips, and legs were outlined in perfect proportions to make people reverie.
This 'advisor' who had made the commander of the Sky City wait for a long time turned out to be a woman with such a prominent back.
At this moment, the lady, known as the 'consultant', was looking intently out the window, her slender fingers tapping lightly on the marble windowsill with a crisp and regular tapping sound.
As if sensing someone, the woman calmly turned around. Her gaze swept in front of Bi Wen and stayed on Wu Xijin's face, and at the same time showed a just right smile, and said to Wu Xijin in a soft tone:
"When we first met, my name was Night Companion Heart. β
