Chapter Fifty-Seven: Trouble and Murder
I took out the phone and dialed Brother Jiu's number. The voice on the other end of the phone www.biquge.info "Fun" is still familiar: "I'm sorry, the user you dialed is no longer in the service area." I thought of Huang Tianming again, at this time, only Huang Tianming could find the ninth brother. Just when I was about to look for Huang Tianming, I heard a quick knock on the door.
Shen Xue thought it was the big cow coming back, so she asked, "Is it the big cow?" But I heard someone outside the door shouting, "It's me, Director Wen." ”
I motioned for Shen Xue to open the door, and as soon as Director Wen entered the door, he hurriedly walked up to me and said, "Eleven, something happened." Why didn't anyone answer your call? ”
I was stunned, probably because there was no signal on my phone when I was in the vault just now. He said, "I was in the vault just now, and there was no signal on my mobile phone." Uncle Wen, what's wrong? ”
Director Wen said: "Wang Xiaobao appeared, just now, at eight o'clock, he killed a gang leader outside a foot bathing center in the business district. ”
I wondered, "Wang Xiaobao? ”
Director Wen nodded and said, "The identity of the homeless man has been found out, his name is Wang Xiaobao." Three years ago, he came to Sancai City from his hometown in the north, and he was a typical unemployed vagrant, and he joined a local gang as a gangster a year ago. However, he didn't commit any major crimes, so he didn't have a criminal record, so there was almost this person in the public security system. It was not until today, in addition to this homicide case, that some of the witnesses recognized Wang Xiaobao, and his identity was confirmed. ”
I frowned, I was really a little puzzled, I could come out and kill people in broad daylight, this was not an ordinary walking corpse. Even if it's a ghost, it's not something that ordinary ghosts can do. Then he asked, "Uncle Wen, can you tell me about the circumstances of the case?" ”
Director Wen sorted out his thoughts and said: "Here's the thing, at eight o'clock today, as soon as the leader came out of the bathing center, Wang Xiaobao rushed on. None of the dozens of men under the leader could stop him. Seeing that Shi Xiaohui and Shen Xue were still on the side, Director Wen leaned into my ear and whispered, "Wang Xiaobao rushed in front of him, ripped off his head, and then fled." ”
I swallowed my saliva and said, "Uncle Wen, I'm afraid this matter is really serious. ”
Director Wen said: "The city has set up a task force. I also fell into it. I watched the surveillance video just now, Wang Xiaobao was slashed by more than a dozen people with knives, and some people even shot, but he was able to escape calmly. I suspect you've become a zombie, so I'm looking for you. ”
I shook my head and said, "Uncle Wen, I'm afraid I can't deal with this matter." I'm afraid there is an evil cultivator behind this, but he is acting in such a high-profile manner, so he is not afraid of being targeted? ”
Director Wen was puzzled: "He has been targeted, this time not only has the city set up a task force, but I heard that the province is also going to send people down." ”
I said, "No, I mean the organization above us." ”
Director Wen suddenly realized that I was talking about the National Security Bureau and the Taoist Association, so he said, "Oh. ”
I thought for a while and said to Director Wen, "Uncle Wen, I need to report this matter. You go back first, I will inform you as soon as there is news. ”
After Director Wen left, I instructed Shi Xiaohui and Shen Xue to continue cleaning, returned to my room and dialed Uncle Gong's phone and said, "Uncle Gong, I have some situations I want to tell you, and this time I may have to ask for help from the association." ”
Gong Shibo replied, "Want to ask for help from the association?" Eleven, did you encounter any difficult problems? ”
I told Uncle Gong about the events of the past few days, and finally said: "Uncle Gong, I think this evil cultivation may be unusual, I suspect that the disappearance of the red-clothed demon is also related to this, otherwise all this is too coincidental." ”
Gong Shibo was silent for a while and said, "If according to what you say, the other party's Dao deeds are at least above Dao Zun. There is indeed no one in Sancai City who can deal with it. This time, I had to ask for support from the association. As is customary, we have to have someone here to be the guide. Since you discovered the situation, it's up to you to be the guide this time. ”
I wondered, "Uncle Gong, can I?" ”
Gong Shibo smiled and said, "Why can't you, you are already a Taoist priest and are qualified to participate in the action." I'll report to the association right away and ask them to send someone over. I'll let you know when there's news. ”
At lunchtime, I said to Da Niu: "Da Niu, I want to participate in a special operation, and I am not here during this time, and you are in charge of the affairs of the store." ”
Seeing my serious face, Da Niu asked, "Senior brother, what kind of task is this time?" Why don't I and Erhu go with you? ”
I thought about it, although this is a good opportunity to exercise, but the other party's Taoism is too high, and there are still problems with self-protection, not to mention the big bull and the second tiger. He shook his head and said, "No need, you just need to cultivate well." ”
Erhu originally wanted to say something, but I glared at him and stopped talking.
However, Shi Xiaohui saw it, so she asked worriedly: "Zhang Shiyi, is this mission very dangerous?" I look at Uncle Wen's appearance today, it's not an ordinary thing. ”
I don't know what to say. gave Da Niu a look. Da Niu nodded, don't tear the topic away, and said, "Senior brother, I've been promoted, do I want to increase my salary?" ”
Erhu also chimed in: "Yes, did I also increase my salary?" ”
I nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give you a raise." As he spoke, he took out a bank card and handed it to Shen Xue and said, "Shen Xue, there are 100,000 yuan in this card, and I don't know how long this mission will take." These days, you will take care of them for the time being. Remember, they can eat whatever they want, and the consumption of cultivation will also be reimbursed. None of the others are allowed to do so. ”
Shen Xue took the bank card and nodded, "Well, no problem." ”
Shi Xiaohui still didn't give up, and wanted to ask the question just now. Just then, the phone rang. When I saw it, it was Gong Shibo. Answered: "Uncle Gong, is there any news?" ”
Gong Shibo said: "Well, the association attaches great importance to this incident and has already arranged it. This time, a Dao Venerable was arranged, and there was a Taoist priest and two Taoist disciples, and I was in charge of the logistics. The person has already departed and just got on the plane. I guess I'll be there tonight. I'll send you the contact information later, and I'll let Xiaolin pick you up later, so prepare well. Prepare yourself. In the evening we were picked up together. ”
I replied, "Okay, Uncle Gong. I'm going to get ready. ”
After speaking, I said to Da Niu: "Let's not talk about the rest of the things first, I'll go out later." After saying that, he didn't care about everyone and went back to the room to pack up the props.
