Chapter 153: Fireflies
"Perhaps you are right, the murderer is in the shoes of the law enforcer, to judge those who are guilty, and to inflict pain on them." Lu Wen said.
"But if everyone is a law enforcer, the order of the world will be chaotic." Wei Bo'an saw that Lu Wen's state was a little wrong, and hurriedly said.
"I suddenly don't want to go after the murderer."
"Xia Chuluo has so many advantages, how did you learn this biggest shortcoming."
Wei Bo'an also knew that Xia Chuluo liked to let go of people she felt innocent.
Even if the man has a murder in his hands.
And Xia Chuluo is learning from her father Xia Zheng.
When the slums were cleared in the summer, none of the most heinous crimes were left behind, and all of them were executed, and some of them had lives in their hands, but they were forced to do so, so they left a life to improve the slums and build a skeleton for the order of the slums.
"There are still two unresolved issues in this case."
Lu Wen turned his head to look at Wei Bo'an.
"First of all, the origin of that money."
"It's been more than 10 years, it's too long, ordinary urban surveillance can only be stored for a month, and special areas, such as around the parliament building, will be kept permanently."
It is unlikely that the surveillance will know where the deceased was wandering in the first place.
Lu Wen thought of the young man from the next village that his aunt said.
I'll have to take a look tomorrow.
"There is a second question, the murderer left a clue in the lawyer's house last time, telling us where the next person will be to die, and this time there should also be a clue, is there anything to discover?"
"Not yet."
It's close to eleven o'clock in the evening.
Even in rural areas, where they slept late, the lights began to turn off one after another.
Most of the people in the Executive Board have already driven back overnight, and there is nothing to explore here, just leave the relevant personnel behind.
"Found a book of poems."
Someone posted a message in a public channel.
Wei Bo'an read it out.
"Oh? Where to find it? I've looked through several rooms before. Lu Wen asked.
"With a padding underneath the TV and some children's books, you're looking for two bedrooms, probably ignoring the most obvious living room."
"That's right."
The two hurried back to the scene.
The executive in charge of the inspection handed them the book of poems.
"Rabindranath Tagore's poetry collection, the front of which has also been torn out a lot, and the first poem that remains is 'Firefly', which was born in the context of a time when that country was being colonized by another country."
Oppression, bullying, darkness.
But there is always a faint light in the darkness to guide the way.
"What do you think murderer means? Tell us to go to a village with a lot of fireflies? Wei Boan asked.
"No, it shouldn't be a village, the murderer's location is not fixed, let me think about it carefully......"
It's hard to say what that firefly means.
It's June and the temperature is gradually rising.
In previous years, fireflies are about to start appearing in various places in the countryside and forests.
"Is there a related scenic spot in the 10th arrondissement, which is famous for fireflies in the summer?"
"Let me look it up."
"You have to check it out?"
"The chief executive director is very busy, well, a large area of more than 10 million people, there are a bunch of things every day, and children have to call when their heads are stuck in the fence, how can they have time to go to those so-called scenic spots."
The all-powerful executive.
The main business is to fight against awakened androids.
Ancillary business also includes solving crimes, unlocking, extinguishing fires, saving people, and finding pets......
"You check it first, I'll check it again, the murderer left two clues last time, one is a poetry collection, the other is an orchid, and there may be two ...... this time"
"Go and see, I'll tell you as soon as there's news."
There are still a lot of people busy in the living room.
Gathering evidence is a tedious task.
Some murderers with strong psychological qualities like to fake the scene, or clean up the scene directly.
Just as Li Meng asked Lu Wen to clean up the bloodstains.
In order to prevent the blood stains from being detected, Lu Wen specially washed it with bleach several times, but that method was only effective in the short term, and it would also be exposed if it was a long time.
Li Meng is very smart, and she is considered to be highly intelligent among the androids Lu Wen has seen, but the original functional chip of the housekeeping type limits her play.
"Is there any bleeding anywhere else?"
"The inspection has not yet begun, and the site has suffered very serious damage, and the progress is relatively slow."
Lu Wen walked around all the rooms.
If there really is a second clue......
If he is a murderer.
Where will he put the clues?
Last time it was placed directly on the balcony, obvious place.
It shouldn't be too hard to find this time.
"The balcony is the place, when you walk into the door, you can see it at first glance, it's just outside the living room, but this kind of rural self-built bungalow doesn't have a balcony."
Lu Wen returned to the gate.
"The first thing you see when you walk through the door ......"
The innermost wall.
There is an alphabet hanging on the wall.
"Firefly ......"
Lu Wen groaned.
A thought, like a spark in the night, suddenly began to burn in his confused mind.
"You all stop what you're doing, I'm going to turn off the lights once." Lu Wen said loudly to everyone in the room.
"Why?"
"Just do what he says, after all, Boss Wei invited him."
“……”
Everyone stopped what they were doing.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, when it was long overdue to rest, this point of work was indeed a little tiring.
"Smack!"
Lu Wen turned off the lights in the living room.
It was pitch black.
The light outside could only barely see each other's faces from some of the people at the door.
"And then what?" Someone asked.
"You don't have to do anything, just leave it to me."
Lu Wen walked to the innermost wall in the living room.
He slowly raised his right hand.
The surface biomimetic material slowly recedes.
Purple light shines through the palm of your hand, illuminating the darkness around you.
"There are words!"
"It's the alphabet!"
Everyone in the room was looking at it.
Twenty-six letters.
In the purple glow, there were four letters that shone faintly.
“E…… C…… M…… O……”
It's not like a word.
More like an abbreviation.
This should be the second clue left by the murderer.
"ECMO, which is an abbreviation for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, is a medical device, a very expensive gadget, and ordinary people can't afford it." Wei Boan said as he stood at the door.
"What does it mean that the murderer left this? Will the next target be a doctor? ”
Lu Wen slowly returned to the door and turned on the light with a 'snap'.
Can this profession of curing diseases and saving people also be related to sin?
It does seem that there will be occasional news about this.
"How many ECMOs are there in District 10?"
"I'll check again."
"Check ...... again"
After a while, the results came in.
"9 units."
"So little?"
