Chapter 169: Chasing the Wind and Shadows
In a luxuriously decorated office.
Bang!
An intricately shaped glass slammed against the wall, shattering and spilling scarlet liquor on the floor.
"Damn ......"
Chang Mingxuan sat on the leather chair, his eyes were uncertain, his face was gloomy as if he could drip water, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"Who's in the shadows of me?!"
The news of the suspected disappearance of Zhuo Scarlet and the other three-person team has caused an uproar in the War Department, and as a high-ranking chairman of the War Department, Chang Mingxuan also learned the news in the shortest possible time, which immediately made him angry.
The fact that the dispersal bomb was killed and killed by Zhuo Hongyi and others in the wilderness has already made him very passive on the table, if he didn't withdraw quickly, he would be in danger of setting himself on fire.
It's actually not very clever to launch a way to deal with the dead ghost, and many people can see that there is something wrong with it, but on the one hand, because the War Department needs to eliminate the bad influence as soon as possible, and on the other hand, he doesn't leave any handles, so in the end, this matter can be revealed.
However, immediately after, Zhuo Crimson and the others disappeared, but the flames that were about to be extinguished turned into raging fires!
In the final analysis, although Zhuo Hongyi, Yuan Ming, and Fan Chuan are insignificant small characters, but Zhuo Scarlet is a man of the year in the war department, with outstanding talent and many supporters, this pair of sisters and brothers have had accidents one after another in such a short period of time, if it is not deliberately targeted, I am afraid no one will believe it! And there is no doubt that everyone will suspect that Zhuo Crimson's disappearance must be closely related to the fact that the previous dispersal bomb was used to cause Zhuo Hongyi's death, or even the same person!
Chang Mingxuan knew in his heart that although Zhuo Crimson's disappearance had nothing to do with him, the yellow mud fell on the crotch of his pants, and it was not but also. I was invisibly like someone was being put in a black cauldron, just like the researcher who hanged himself after being hypnotized by himself, and was used as a scapegoat!
Chang Mingxuan was upset and a mess.
He now has a difficult problem to figure out:
Is it a coincidence that Zhuo Crimson and their disappearance are missing, or is someone who has seized this opportunity to blame him?
Even the controllers are not iron buckets, and there are more or less grievances and entanglements between each other, and the reason why Chang Mingxuan is upset is also very simple, that is, Zhuo Crimson's master teacher, Mingxue.
The strength of Ming Blood ranks among the top in the sequence of controllers, not to mention that it is also ruthless and murderous, even Chang Mingxuan is unwilling to provoke. And Zhuo Crimson is the most proud student of Mingxue, and if the other party learns about it, he will definitely not give up easily.
Under the relentless pursuit of such a character, the previous qualitative investigation results have the possibility of being overturned, which is undoubtedly very unfavorable to him.
"How could such a coincidence happen......"
Forcibly calming down, Chang Mingxuan seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes were cold:
"That slut already suspected that I did it, could it be her?"
......
Another two days passed.
In the past two days, the discussions and speculations about Zhuo Scarlet sister and brother have been brewing and fermenting, and the theory of the mastermind behind the scenes has been rampant. At Wan Shan's strong request, the War Department issued several investigation tasks one after another, and the results were finally obtained.
in the conference room.
The commissioners Wang Chao and Song Qi, who were on duty in the War Department, had heavy faces, and looked at Wanshan Dao, who was unkempt and bloodshot in his eyes:
"The three Yinshan Stream survey missions we released have all received the same feedback, the fossil pterosaur nest in Yinshan Stream has been thoroughly cleaned up, and looking at the traces and the remaining armor-piercing arrows, it should be Zhuo Crimson and them. This can rule out the possibility of burial under the claws of fossilized pterosaurs. ”
"But other than that, there is no trace of them anymore, as if they have evaporated from the world. ”
"This is the fifth day they've been missing. ”
Wang Chao pondered for a moment and said slowly:
"It is basically certain that Zhuo Crimson, Haojie, and Lei Tao encountered an unknown accident in the wilderness, and no one survived. ”
There was silence in the room.
Wan Shan's expression was blank, as if he had expected this result, only a trace of extremely imperceptible grief in the depths of his eyes flashed.
Like many of Zhuo Crimson's supporters, under the same Ming Blood Gate, Wan Shan also has a never-before-revealed love for Zhuo Crimson in his heart, but Zhuo Crimson's excellence even makes him feel a little ashamed of himself, so this love has always been pressed in his heart by him and has never confided in others.
Red face and white bones, the death of the Yiren, and the fact that even the corpse could not be found, although such things continued to play out every day in the wilderness, still made him feel an unspeakable sadness in his heart.
After a while, Wan Shan's voice was hoarse, and he spoke: "Two, are you sure that this is just an accident?"
Wang Chao and Song Qi glanced at each other, and Song Qi, who was still fast-talking, sighed and said:
"I won't tell you all that nonsense, it stands to reason that with Zhuo Crimson's strength and experience, it is impossible for them to encounter any irresistible danger in the wilderness within this distance, but there are so many new humans who enter and leave the wilderness every day that there is basically no way to investigate. And the wilderness is so big, no one knows where Zhuo Crimson and them had an accident. Therefore, whether it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, it is destined to be a headless public case. ”
There are thousands of new humans in the entire Vault Zone, and many of them go out into the wilderness every day. For this group, the Bone Wilderness is not an uncommon thing, and cases like this have happened from time to time, and the War Department's special mission to issue a death investigation for Zhuo Crimson has been an exception.
But that's all the War Department can do. Although they also felt unusual about Zhuo Crimson's disappearance, they couldn't do more without pointing evidence.
"Thank you both. ”
Understanding what Song Qi meant, Wan Shan slowly stood up:
"Although Crimson has no clue about their disappearance, Zhuo Hongyi and others have encountered an accident, and through the background of that suicide researcher, I have visited and excavated a lot of things. ”
"For example, this person has ordinary knowledge, four years ago, he was just the most ordinary apprentice in the research department, but he was promoted as quickly as a rocket under the influence of a certain high-level executive, and was rated as a full-fledged researcher in just one year. ”
"For example, this high-level is rumored to be amorous and likes women, and this suicidal researcher happens to have an aunt who is still charming and works in the war department. ”
"For example, this ghost for the dead is cowardly, timid and afraid according to the description of his colleagues. But I read his suicide note, and the handwriting was smooth and powerful, not at all like something written by a person who was about to commit suicide in fear of sin, but as if it had been written after being hypnotized. ”
"Another example......"
"That's it!"
Wang Chao and Song Qi were slightly shocked, and immediately stopped:
"Wanshan, these things catch the wind and shadows, you'd better be cautious in your words and deeds!"
In the final analysis, they all realized that there was probably a person in control behind this incident, and it might be difficult to end the case if they pursued it relentlessly, especially in this period of serious lack of high-end combat power.
And Wan Shan's words undoubtedly lifted the lid and pointed to a certain high-level.
"You have scruples, I can understand that. ”
Wan Shan looked indifferent, walked to the door of the conference room, and then turned around and said word by word:
"In that case, I'll pass on the news of Crimson to the teacher. ”
"It's up to him to do justice for the Scarlet siblings!"
