Chapter 174: Brainless
Xia Ren walked to the door and found that there were not many people outside, only a few superintendents and the staff of this villa area, there were very few residents nearby, and even fewer had the leisure to watch the excitement, so the two logistics personnel were able to stop them.
"There was a murder inside, I heard that there were gunshots, this is not the scope of your arbitration court, if we don't get out of the way, we have to force our way in."
A middle-aged superintendent in the lead was negotiating with the logistics staff, Xia Ren walked over, patted one of the logistics staff on the shoulder, and said, "It's okay, let them in." ”
"Yes."
The logistician answered, then moved out of the way.
The eyes of everyone outside suddenly all looked at Xia Ren, the middle-aged superintendent frowned slightly, looked at his young and handsome face, and an obviously underage girl following behind him, and snorted: "It's really getting more and more unusual!" ”
The police inspector and the dispute arbitration court have been grudging for a long time, although they are dissatisfied, but several police superintendents have nothing to do with the people of the arbitration court at this time, and the murder in front of them is important, they do not want to delay time, and quickly walk in.
The rest of the villa staff also hurried to the courtyard to check on the situation of the two security guards.
"By the way, you guys adjust the surveillance here and see if there is a tall woman in a black trench coat who has ever come."
Xia Ren ordered the two logistics personnel, and then left the place.
He is not an expert in criminal investigation, so traces of the scene, Lepo's personal contacts, and his communication records all need the help of the police to investigate.
Liu Xiuxiu didn't go back with him, as an investigator, and there was such a big incident tonight, he had to follow up on the progress of the matter in time so that he could report to the Foundation.
When Xia Ren returned home, it was already twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, the lights were on in the room, Qin Yun was sitting on the sofa in the living room, and after seeing him, a smile appeared on his face: "Is it going well?" ”
"It's okay."
Xia Ren wanted to rub his eyes, but suddenly thought that his hands had just touched the corpse not long ago, so he paused and had to give up.
Tonight's events are really hard to say whether they will go well or not, although Lepo is dead, but because of this, he has determined that the woman in black is related to this incident, and it may also implicate a certain anomaly who has not been discovered by the Foundation, and the harvest is not bad.
And Lepo's death also confirms from the side that the Dawning Center is really related to ghouls, Xia Ren doesn't believe that an ordinary financial company employee would have a whim to start an institution by himself, as long as he finds out where his money comes from, this clue will not be broken.
The only regret is that Lepo's brain is gone, and he can't ask for more information through Ice Slavery.
"Brother!"
Lily, whose pronunciation was already standard, ran over and hugged his thighs, but her eyes were aimed at his trouser pocket, and a trace of sluggling saliva slowly flowed from the corners of her mouth, with a longing expression.
"I can't give you this."
Thinking that he now had the leather paper he found in the Loft in his pocket, Natsuhito picked up Lily and rubbed her shaggy hair with one hand.
"Didn't Xiuxiu come back with you?"
Qin Yun put down the sweater he was knitting in his hand and asked.
"He's got something going on."
Xia Ren put down Lily and took off her coat.
"I'm going to take a shower, you go to bed early tonight, you don't have to toss with me."
"Hmm."
Qin Yun nodded, watched him walk into the bathroom, and subconsciously touched the long hair on his chest, his expression a little lost.
"I've had a lot of trouble lately."
After taking a shower, Xia Ren sat on a chair in the study, looked at the computer screen, and began to sort out the things he had encountered these days.
Since I came out of the ancient dream, the accidents around me have been one after another, if this is a coincidence, it is understandable that there are two incidents together, but now it is inevitably too much.
He couldn't help but turn his gaze to the tragic doll on the bookshelf next to him, whose lilac eyes reflected the light and was quietly staring at him.
"Is it because of you?"
Xia Ren asked.
The other party is like an ordinary puppet, and there is no response.
Ever since Zhu Youqian gave it to himself as a gift, Xia Ren couldn't find a way to contain it, so he could only put it on the bookshelf and eat ashes.
"If only I could be as conscious as a clothesline."
Xia Ren sighed.
Clothesline, worthy of nature is the hanging rope hanging on the balcony, after the other party was caught, he found a suitable place to stay.
He didn't know what conditions were missing that caused the tragic puppet to not be contained, so he couldn't figure it out, so he could only continue to put it down and take out the two things he found at Lepo's house tonight.
A piece of leather paper, a couple of hard drives.
The paper smelled of disgusting rancidity, and he didn't dare to read the words anymore, so he found a sealed box and put it in.
Plugging the hard drive into the computer, Xia Ren found that he could read it, and there were dozens of videos in the folder, click on one of them casually, and a moaning sound suddenly came out of the stereo, and the two people on the screen were engaged in a fierce hand-to-hand fight, so frightened that he quickly clicked to pause.
"Xia Ren?"
There was a knock on the door outside, it was Qin Yun.
Xia Ren coughed twice in embarrassment and said, "It's okay, you go to bed quickly." ”
Outside the door.
"What is my brother doing?"
Lily tilted her head with an innocent expression.
"I don't know."
Qin Yun's face turned red, and she turned around and returned to the bedroom, feeling a little helpless in her heart.
"If you need it, come to me......"
She sat on the bed and thought mournfully.
……
……
Early the next morning, Qin Yun was cooking, Liu Xiuxiu had two dark circles under her eyes, and as soon as she entered the house, she sat on the sofa.
"What's the progress?"
Xia Ren poured him a glass of water.
"At five o'clock in the afternoon, the surveillance camera only captured a blurry shadow, which should be the tall woman in black you said, she is not a person, she is either an infected body, or an aberration, or even ...... It is also possible that the apostle has a chance that what happened to Lepo's house last night was indeed done by a certain alien, and they did it very cleanly, and Lepo's call records were erased, and even the communication company could not find it. ”
Liu Xiuxiu took a glass of water and drank it all, it seemed that she was very tired last night.
"The clue is broken like that?"
Xia Ren felt that he had something to say next.
Sure enough, Liu Xiuxiu hesitated for a moment and said: "That's not true, we still found the backer behind them through the remittance records of the Shuguang Center, an official surnamed Tian, but I feel that this guy shouldn't have so much energy, so that the police station can turn a blind eye, and after a deeper understanding, I know that the official surnamed Tian has always been doing things for Zhao Tianliang, one of the ten councilors of Jupiter City, so the real mastermind should be him." ”
"In addition, when we investigated Lei Bo's interpersonal relationships before his death, we found that he had close contact with an unemployed vagrant in his fifties named Chen Qiwei three months ago, which is very strange, Lei Bo's family is well-off, Chen Qiwei is idle, has never had a serious job, the two social status differences are too big, and they are not classmates or relatives, so they should not know each other normally.
Later, we checked this Chen Qiwei and found that he had been sentenced several times for human trafficking in the past 30 years, and was just released last year. ”
After listening to this, Xia Ren lowered his head and pondered for a while, and asked, "That's all?" Didn't Zhao Tianliang and Chen Qiwei continue to investigate? ”
Liu Xiuxiu immediately complained: "You treat us as a search engine, just press it to determine what you want to know, it's not easy enough to find so many clues in one night." ”
"Moreover, last night, the logistics department only showed a slight intention to move the Dawn Center, and Lepo was killed, and I am afraid that if I go deeper this time, the clues that I finally got will be broken again."
"So ......"
Xia Ren looked at him: "Next, we can only do it ourselves?" ”
"Hmm."
Liu Xiuxiu nodded, then remembered something, and said: "By the way, Lepo's body has been autopsied, there is nothing in the stomach, and no brain tissue has been found in his home, but judging from the residue of the trauma site and mouth, his brain seems to have been sucked out of his mouth." ”
