Chapter 10 Conjecture and Reasoning
"Okay, is that okay?" Kang Xiu turned the recipe down and asked the other two with his eyes. Carter nodded www.biquge.info and Poseidon took out a note as a tip and handed it to the waiter.
When it was over, Li Xiaobai stood up and walked to Poseidon's side:
"Hello, Young Master Poseidon, Deputy Head of Augustine, Krieger Emeritus Professor, Chairman of the Oceania Group, Gold Medal Winner of the 20th Scientific Research Alchemy Competition, Member of the Holy Grail Society, Child of the Ocean and Storm." Li Xiaobai read out a long list of titles without emotion, as if these were all texts.
"Good afternoon, Detective Li Xiaobai, it's a pleasure to see you here, isn't it?" Poseidon said in his usual politeness, with a slight superiority.
"I didn't say hello to you this morning." Although Li Xiaobai was talking to Poseidon, he kept looking at Kang Xiu. "I have something I want to trouble you, I want to say a word to this beauty beside you."
"You know I've never liked to promise things for people. This is Kangsu Augustine, my father's goddaughter, so if you want to talk to her alone, why don't you ask my opinion? Poseidon made a gesture of invitation to Kang-so.
"I didn't know that Young Master Poseidon actually had a polite side." Someone said suddenly, in an unkind tone.
"This is my friend, Agent Ye Xixi of the Anomaly Investigation Division." Li Xiaobai wanted to glare at Ye Xixi fiercely, Ye Xixi seemed to have taken the wrong medicine today, but she felt that the latter might not understand.
"You didn't explain it just now, and you came to greet me alone, I think Agent Ye may feel that he has been neglected." Poseidon said meaningfully.
Li Xiaobai has graduated from school for so long, from a sent agent to an important cadre, even if most of it is because of talent, she also understands what Poseidon means, she seriously greeted Kang Xiu and Carter, and introduced Ye Xixi to them.
Kang Xiu was quite face-saving, and said to her: "Although we have known each other in the morning, I am still very happy to see you again." ”
Carter nodded, silently saying I understood.
"Miss Kangxiu, can I find a time with you to talk alone?" Li Xiaobai asked.
"I still have some miscellaneous matters, and I can't determine the exact time, but I am looking forward to Detective Li's visit after confirming the place of residence." Kang Xiu said very decently.
Li Xiaobai and the others arrived early, and left with Kang Xiu and the others after eating. Still said goodbye very politely, Kang Xiumu saw them leave, the knife and fork in his hand cut the meat on the plate, and suddenly said:
"The food in this kind of place may really have a unique taste, but it is a little too noisy, and I lose the mood of appreciating the food."
"Kang Xiu, can I go and ask you to come out tomorrow morning? I know there's a place that fits your requirements. Poseidon said.
"If the prince of Poseidon, who has a long list of titles, is in this mood, I will definitely be invited." Kang so replied.
"You two want to go out alone, don't you want to call Princess Lucia if you don't invite me?" Carter said.
"Until now, I don't know, Poseidon, where did you arrange for me to stay?"
So the three of them continued to discuss arrangements that were of little significance.
"Li Xiaobai, don't you already know anything?"
On the other side, Ye Xixi, who was already wearing a white coat, asked Li Xiaobaidao,
Li Xiaobai buttoned the white coat one by one, until the buckle was tight, and then said to Ye Xixi: "Doing our business is about evidence, and without evidence, all conjectures are to be determined." ”
"But you never told me that, and until now, I don't even know who died." Ye Xi looked at her dissatisfied.
"You'll find out right away."
Pushing open the wooden door on the opposite side, the room was filled with cold air from the pavement, and directly opposite were three bloody metal dissecting tables, fortunately any gas was frozen hard.
"Are you dissecting or tearing people apart?" Ye Xixi said in astonishment.
"Ye Xixi, this is my exclusive anatomist, Miss Xie Jingzi." Li Xiaobai pointed to the girl with a big white mask, only two big black eyes flashing were exposed.
"Hello, Miss Xie Jingzi, your mask is very handsome." Ye Xixi said.
"Thank you very much, let's hurry up and get started." The mask Xie Jingzi wore was painted with a grinning tooth showing a triangular tooth caricature, which felt quite individual.
Li Xiaobai picked up a remote control from the front LCD monitor and pressed it, and a video appeared on it, "Codename A dissection begins." ”
Pulling open the body bag on the metal dissecting table, judging by the body size, it was a middle-aged man, bleeding a lot, because he had no face, his entire face was lying down, and a bloody face was bare with two eyeballs.
Ye Xixi turned her face, she felt that what she had just eaten was stirring in her stomach, and she didn't eat much because she wasn't hungry at that time.
"Miss Xie Jingzi, you still want to say the conclusion directly, right?" Li Xiaobai proposed.
"Okay, Ye Xixi, let's come here."
Eyes turned back to the dissecting table, but under the devastating dissection, the bones of the corpse were exposed.
Ye Xixi still lowered his head and looked at his toes.
"All three died between eleven and twelve o'clock last night, and it is impossible to distinguish the order of death. Among them, the corpse of the code name A is the most valuable, he is a mixed-race executor, with a high blood content, and he is A-grade. However, I compared the registered executor gene pool and found no corresponding genes. Now let's look at his bones. Xie Jingzi took the remote control and pressed it a few times, and two pictures appeared on the screen.
"On the left is the skeleton of a normal person, and on the right is the skeleton of a person who has degenerated into Deadpool. But codenamed A, his skeleton shape is somewhere between normal and Deadpool, which is peculiar because his body is still normal. ”
Ye Xixi breathed slowly; "Fallen Deadpool starts to change from the skin, and it usually takes more than a day for the bones to take shape. In other words, he looks like a truly depraved Deadpool on the inside, but on the outside he is still a normal person. ”
"No, Deadpool's transformation is very fast, and now take the newly dead Deadpool to test, they have a lot of new bones on their bones, and the texture is still very fragile. As for Codename A, his bones are all old bones, only the one that is growing is new. Xie Jingzi continued to answer.
"That is to say, the transformation in his body is little by little." Li Xiaobai pondered.
"Yes, there may be some clues in his face because the killer stripped his face off." Xie Jingzi pointed to his head and said.
"The offender is very unsophisticated, his knife is very sharp, leaving a cut on the bones, but the lower knife does not follow the texture of the muscle at all, and the cut is pitted. The cause of death of Codename A was actually shock caused by excessive blood loss, as his hands, feet, and body were pressed by something, probably together with postural asphyxia. ”
"Didn't you say he's an A-grade half-breed?" Ye Xixi gasped, "Who can easily kill an executor?" ”
"One possibility is to make him lose his ability to release resistance and not be able to use his ability." Li Xiaobai said, "But the scene of the first crime was in the Garden of Eden, on a piece of land next to that path, there were traces of struggle and crushing, and there was also mud on his body, wounds and nails, and it was there after comparing the samples." ”
"But no one heard anything, even if he was doing something unseemly, he didn't die and didn't make any sound, and he didn't hear the fight."
Li Xiaobai continued, "But the place where he was killed is where the corpse is, and there is no blood left on the soil. ”
"What about his face? Did the murderer take it? Ye Xixi asked.
Xie Jingzi shook his head and said softly: "I didn't leave him, the murderer borrowed something, stuffed his face into his mouth, passed through the esophagus, and violently stabbed the cardia until it was sure to soak in stomach acid." ”
Ye Xixi covered her mouth in advance.
"When the murderer did the above actions, code name A did not die, and his face was completely damaged by stomach acid, and he could only test that the DNA was his." Xie Jingzi added leisurely.
"These two are the officers on duty at the Garden of Eden." Li Xiaobai continued, "They were strangled by something about 4 centimeters and a smooth surface, and agreed that they didn't make any sound. ”
"That thing, or rather, murderer was so powerful that it easily strangled their throats and didn't let them breathe." Xie Jingzi added.
"The night shift staff at Eden all work in pairs." In the end, Li Xiaobai concluded, "Ye Xixi, do you know why I am looking for you, the backbone of this anomaly investigation class is investigating together?" ”
Ye Xixi sketched such a picture in her mind: Code name A, an extrajudicial executor who does dirty things for people in the dark world for a living, came to the Garden of Eden last night for some ulterior reason.
Then he came across the thing, which instantly subdued him and made him unable to make a move. That thing must have had an unparalleled bloodline, and the other half-bloods could only tremble at him.
And then that thing, I should say, was also the one who did dirty things in the dark world, and recognized him with the help of the dim streetlights. Maybe that thing doesn't have night vision, so you have to carry him, a strong middle-aged man of more than 200 pounds, and put him on the street lamp to see clearly without leaving any trail marks. Why didn't he reveal the secret, he cut off his face and let the stomach acid corrode.
At this time, there was a staff member on duty, and the thing did not hesitate to kill the staff on duty when they did not see what was going on, and for some unknown reason or ritual, the thing placed the heads of the three corpses on the three vertices of the equilateral triangle.
When Ye Xixi reacted, she had unconsciously returned home, an empty and cold room, depressed and suffocating loneliness.
She regretted it for the first time, was it really right that she was so resolute to go to this unaccompanied place?
