"Maybe these living corpses were once extraordinary. ”

Roddy glanced at the stiff living corpses, their clothes were almost similar, and it was easy to tell that the living corpses in the rocky area were of the same vein and extremely numerous.

"Could it be that these living corpses were extraordinary before they died?"

Although Luo Di has just come into contact with the extraordinary, he also knows that the number of extraordinary people is by no means too much, and there is only one extraordinary person who exceeds the third order in the entire Cotar City, so you can imagine that the extraordinary base is definitely not large, if the guess is true, which organization do so many extraordinary people belong to, and why did they come to the forsaken land and become living corpses.

Roddy slowly raised his head and looked at the rocky area, deciding to hunt another living corpse to verify.

After some selection and struggle, Roddy looked at the second "analysis stone" in his hand and fell into deep thought.

Returning to the Time Realm with two "analysis stones", Luo Di returned home after placing them, and the familiar cold made him shiver, and quickly washed up and got into the futon.

The next morning, Tuesday.

Roddy made a detour to pass by the Smiths' house, but unfortunately the Smiths still haven't returned, which indicates that today is likely to be a day without any gains.

Put away your disappointment and prepare to go to the daily newspaper.

It was still early, so Roddy was not in a hurry, but took a leisurely walk to see that there were not many pedestrians on the road, and it was very close to the upper town, so most of them were gentlemen and ladies in suits.

And these gentlemen and ladies who have a worry-free life and plenty of leisure time are most enthusiastic about morning tea and afternoon tea, although this is too early for morning tea time, but there are also a considerable number of people who choose this time.

Because it's quiet enough and the air is fresh.

Roddy saw the laid-back group of gentlemen and ladies at the door of a restaurant, each discussing a topic of interest over hot tea.

This way of life is not as good as a basket of steamed buns and a bowl of wontons for Luo Di, in his previous life, even if he was just a college student, he was always busy and fast-paced to adapt to life for his studies.

"Hey, Wisson, did you read yesterday's daily report?"

"Of course, I could have stayed here early in the morning. ”

“......”

"It's damn cold, and if it weren't for today's daily newspaper, I'd still be at home with a stove. ”

“......”

Roddy passed by and heard the conversation between the two gentlemen intermittently, and he didn't hear all of them clearly because of the lack of proximity, but the word daily made him slightly curious.

The normal one that can be associated with it is naturally the Kota Daily, and the current report promoted by the Kotar Daily is the serial murder case that Viles took over.

Yesterday he missed the first round of coverage since Vierse took over because of a visit to Charl, and he didn't know anything about the progress of the case.

Perhaps something could be heard from them, but it was not an active investigation and would not cause Mr. Isad any trouble.

Roddy muttered to himself as he slowed down and pricked up his ears.

"It's a pity I didn't watch the previous issues, but it's said that five people have died?"

Five?Roddy frowned, and listened patiently.

"Four, it's four, but with today's it must be five. ”

As the two gentlemen talked about it, the other gentlemen and ladies who were also enjoying life at a leisurely pace naturally talked about it.

"The murderer is a very capable and thoughtful guy, and a big detective died in his home last Friday, and it is said that the police department has issued a bounty!"

"Up to 200 gold pounds!"

"Oh~"

"Wow~"

As the gentleman spoke, others were surprised or exclaimed, and two hundred gold pounds were a great fortune even for them.

"If you want me to say that this kind of guy who threatens to kill one a day and really does it, he may be a powerful nobleman, or a genius with a superior IQ. ”

"Neither the police department nor the private investigators have any clues!"

Roddy frowned, and the more he listened, the more strange he felt in his heart, he did not feel the mourning for the dead in the words of these people, and even the indignation expressed against the murderer was such as 'this murderer is amazing'.

No one cared about the dead, and even those who felt sorry for it were led astray by many more.

This is just the corner of the street in the early morning.

"It shouldn't be like this. Luo Di pursed his lips and whispered, having the heart to step forward to theorize, but then sighed helplessly, faintly annoyed.

That's probably what Viose's editors wanted.

This made Roddy not very happy, and turned and walked quickly towards the daily newspaper, he had no idea of seeking a theory from Miss Vielse, but he urgently needed Mr. Isad's affirmation.

'Their thinking is wrong, and you're right. ’

......

The newspaper office seemed to be busy, and it was the time for the day to prepare for the day's daily newspaper.

Roddy hurried up to the second floor to Mr. Issad's office.

"What's wrong Roddy, your face doesn't look good. ”

Issad was preparing breakfast for Barty, and when he saw Roddy's slightly gloomy face, he asked curiously.

Roddy deliberated and recounted what happened to him on the road.

"Here's the thing, I think it's disrespectful to the families of the deceased to edit Vielse's way of doing this, and..."

"And what you think they should be talking about is how to abuse the murderer?"

Roddy was slightly stunned, it felt like this, but it didn't feel right.

"It's not either..."

"Hehe, look at our little Roddy, that's what I like about him, righteous and zealous. ”

Isad said to Barty, half jokingly, half seriously.

"This is the usual routine of Vielse's editors, first suppressed and then promoted, I read her report, I have to say that the routine of 'high-IQ crime' can indeed attract the attention of consumers the fastest, which can bring considerable economic benefits to the newspaper. ”

Although Luo Di didn't understand it very well, he thought of the public opinion guidance in his previous life and had some answers in his heart, and Ms. Vielce probably mastered the 'public opinion' skillfully, and ignited the flashpoints one by one after attracting enough eyeballs, so as to get the greatest benefit.

This kind of reporting, which in a sense controls the reader's mind, should not be present in such a deplorable and rigorous death case.

This is not entertainment news.

But the lack of objectivity in her reporting is true. ”

Issad made a final decision and did not discuss the matter again.

......

I have to say that Roddy's view that 'there is probably nothing to be gained today' has indeed come true.

Without the Smiths returning, the two visited the University of Imperial History and Grammar in the afternoon, and neither the students nor the teachers were of any help to them.

Char was right, everything that should have been destroyed was destroyed, but the old newspaper in Roddy's hands had no effect.

However, Luo Di was keenly aware that both the students and the teachers of the academy were a little vague about this incident, and they didn't seem to want to discuss the matter.

"That's it for today, it's not time to leave work yet, but I can allow you to leave work early. ”

"You can go and buy yourself the right outfit. Isad added, and handed Roddy an envelope.

Luo Di opened it suspiciously, saw a few gray-black banknotes, and the great Grandpa Mao flashed in his heart.

"This is your reward for this time, a bill can go to the bank and exchange it for five gold pounds. ”

Sure enough, it's money, but... Is there still paper money in this world?

Seeing Roddy's half-excited, half-puzzled expression, Issad said with a smile:

"It's not very popular in the lower town, but it's a common currency in the upper town, and it comes in denominations of ten gold pounds, twenty gold pounds, and one hundred gold pounds. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Issad. Although Roddy felt that it was a bit rude to count in person, the banknotes of this world did make him curious, so he roughly counted them, and there were four of them.

Twenty gold pounds!

Roddy looked up in shock, his mouth open.

"Hehe, you deserve it, no need to shirk. ”
