Chapter 425: Clues
"Big brother, I'm wrong, I'm just a messenger, I don't know anything, and I'm really not a strange person!"
The sound of pleading sounded in the corridor outside, and soon, a boy with curly blond hair in simple clothes was carried in front of Xia Ren by the logistics department.
The little boy was obviously really panicked, and when he entered the house, he lowered his head and dodged his eyes, only daring to secretly look at the scene in the house.
To his left and right, two burly members of the logistics department stood separately to prevent him from escaping, and also to deal with any accidents that might occur.
The little boy was very remorseful in his heart, he shouldn't have coveted the 1,000 league coins, now it's okay, just for that money, he even has to put his life here.
Who would have thought that the obscene middle-aged man with a goatee and no momentum would even pit himself a child who had just turned ten years old.
No one spoke in the room, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that the little boy could barely breathe.
He fidgeted and secretly observed the main character in the room, the man who was half-lying on the hospital bed, too handsome to speak.
The man's face was a little sickly pale, he didn't smile, and he exuded an indescribable temperament all over his body, which made people subconsciously feel fear.
The little boy did not dare to look at him, and quickly turned his head away.
The man was holding a little Lori with green curly hair in his arms, about four or five years old, with a cute face that made people's hearts melt, and the little boy couldn't help but look at it twice.
At the bedside, there are still two women standing, to be honest, the little boy has never met a woman as beautiful as them in reality since he was born, and she is more beautiful than an actress who came out of the TV.
"It's over, it's over."
The little boy was terrified.
Just looking at this battle, I know that the identity of the man on the hospital bed is not ordinary, he is definitely a big man, he doesn't even have an identity, and he usually survives by stealing things and receiving relief, and the other party can completely disappear from this world with a casual move of his fingers.
"I really, really don't know anything."
The little boy's legs trembled, beads of sweat kept pouring out of his palms, and without waiting for anyone to ask, he took the initiative to tell everything.
"I was wandering the streets, and a, a middle-aged man with a goatee stopped me and said I wanted to help deliver something, and I came."
Afraid that the other party would not believe it, the little boy leaned sideways, put his hand in his pocket, and hurriedly took out a thousand face value of money, as well as a somewhat wrinkled photo that was rubbed.
"This is the money that someone gave me, and what I asked me to hand over."
He held these things in both hands, straightened his arms, nervous to the point of a little deprived of oxygen.
Qin Yun walked over, took the money along with the photo, and handed it to Xia Ren.
There is nothing special about the money, Xia Ren glanced at it, and threw it aside, but it was the photo......
Xia Ren narrowed his eyes.
The photo shows a woman, a little thin, looking unhealthy, and this is a fruit photo, in which the woman is still holding her ID card.
What's more, this woman is the aberrant of the morning.
"It's kind of interesting."
Xia Ren handed the photo to the logistics staff: "Check her identity." β
Then he looked at the little boy and said, "You can go, and if you don't want to meet a psychopathic murderer, forget about tonight." β
The little boy was stunned, and he didn't react for a while, until Qin Yun put the 1,000 league coins back in his hand, and he hurriedly ran out of the ward like a frightened rabbit.
"Let's go, too."
Xia Ren handed Lily to Qin Yun to hold, endured the discomfort of his body, got off the hospital bed, and stretched his muscles.
"It's been a long time since I've been sick, and it's really uncomfortable."
"Where are we going?"
Qin Yun held Lily with one hand, and handed him a coat with the other.
"Since the clues have been sent to the door, it can't be regarded as invisible."
Xia Ren put on his coat and reached out to rub Lily's head dotingly.
"Lily is not feeling well, don't go, take a good rest here with Lu Yi first, Yun, you just go with me."
"Okay."
There weren't many opportunities to be alone with Xia Ren, so Qin Yun naturally agreed.
"Don't follow me, help me prepare a car, I'm going out, just send me the information you find later."
Xia Ren said to the people in the logistics department again.
After explaining this, he picked up the teacup on the bedside table, drank all the water inside, and walked out of the ward with Qin Yun.
This hospital is still the one they came to in the morning, and when the two of them walked to the gate of the hospital, the logistics department just drove the prepared car over, and the efficiency was as fast as ever.
It was the first time that the tentacles had been infected, which directly and seriously affected Xia Ren's state, he was now like a patient with a high fever that did not go away, his whole body was sore, and the strength he could exert was estimated to be less than half of what he was normal for.
Rarely, he handed over the task of driving to Qin Yun.
Qin Yun can drive, and the first car in Xia Ren's life was Qin Yun's, but that car died honorably as early as when Qiu Mingshan fought with the apostle Liu Fusheng.
"Where are you going?"
Qin Yun started the car and asked.
Xia Ren sat in the co-pilot, looked at a document just sent by the logistics department on his mobile phone, and said an address according to the information on it.
This information is exactly that aberration.
The woman's name was Jenny before her death, and unlike Xia Ren's guessed age, she was only twenty-seven years old this year.
Jenny is unmarried but has two children, she dropped out of school as a teenager, was arrested more than a dozen times for theft and selling silver, and she also has a record of smoking white cigarettes, with whom her parents disowned her when she had her first child eight years ago.
With such a wealth of experience, it's no wonder that he looks so old when he is only in his twenties.
Late at night, there were very few vehicles on the street, and Qin Yun drove very steadily, barely feeling many bumps.
"The middle-aged man that the kid said just now is the one called a real estate agent, right?"
Qin Yun asked.
"It should be him."
Xia Ren put away his phone and told Qin Yun all the speculations he saw before he fell unconscious.
However, the two discussed all the way, but they didn't figure out what the real estate agent wanted to do.
"Let's take it one step at a time."
Eventually, Natsuhito decided not to make unfounded speculations anymore.
At the same time, they also reached their destination.
This is an old community, there is not even a doorman at the entrance of the community, at a glance, under the dark night, the buildings inside are full of traces of vicissitudes of time, several low buildings only a few houses are lit up, less than the stars in the sky.
Far from the center of the city, there is nothing but dilapidation here, only dilapidation remains.
Walking to the gate of the community, Xia Ren saw that there was an iron cage behind the green belt next to the gate, and there was a big black dog with a strong body in the cage, which seemed to be usually very fierce, or it was raised by the community property as a doorman - if this community really had a property.
But anyway, at least in front of Xia Ren, the big black dog guarding the door was very polite, it clamped its tail and curled up in the corner of the cage, not daring to snort, for fear of causing unnecessary misunderstandings.
Xia Ren just glanced at it, and walked into the community with Qin Yun.
Qin Yun, who lives in Dongzhou, can hardly imagine that today, when the Supreme Alliance government has been in power for more than a thousand years, there will be such a dirty place.
In front of them, the building was only six stories high, and there was only a lone garbage can next to the door, and although it had lost half of its body, it still stubbornly stuck to its post, and this kind of conscientious profundity made even the capitalists who were best at exploitation cry when they saw it.
But the remaining half of the garbage cans obviously couldn't do their job well, and the foul-smelling muddy sewage was everywhere, and there was no way to settle down.
Obviously, this kind of historical building that seems to be left over from the last century cannot expect it to have an elevator, Xia Ren thought for no reason that renting a house in this kind of place, the rent on the top floor is definitely cheaper than the bottom floor.
Jenny's home is on the top floor.
They climbed up to the sixth floor, and the lights in the hallway didn't know if they were broken or if there were no lights at allβit was pitch black.
The security door plastered with various advertisements was closed, and Xia Ren took out the coward's ear picker and inserted it into the lock hole, and the latter skillfully shook a few times, and the door lock opened in response.
It was also pitch black in the room, but it wasn't an obstacle for the two of them, who could still see clearly.
To Xia Ren's surprise, the house was relatively tidy, although there were not many furniture, and they were all relatively shabby, but it could be seen that someone had sorted it out.
There was no pollution here, but he had found something else.
Natsuhito walked to the bedroom door and pushed it open.
In the direction of the door, there was a large bed, and the bed was covered with a quilt, and something was pressed under the quilt, and it didn't move.
The scrawny little girl sat at the head of the bed, her big eyes looking through her yellow hair.
She didn't panic, she didn't make any moves, she just said weakly:
"I'm sorry, sir, but there's nothing of value in the house."
"I'm not here to steal." Xia Ren said.
"My mom isn't home."
The girl's voice was a little hoarse, and she didn't know how many days she hadn't drunk water.
"She said when she left that she would never come back."
