Chapter Twenty-Four: The Shadow of Light

"Rich and noble."

Lu Wen said with heartfelt emotion.

The two followed Li Jian to his home.

This Li Jian actually built a villa in the city, Western-style architecture, palace-like luxury, and huge crystal chandeliers running through the stairwell from the first floor to the third floor.

The exterior of the villa resembles the manor in the great Gatsby.

【Calligraphy and Painting】

【Porcelain】

【Bronze】

【Clay pot】

【……】

"With so much money, why don't you just hire a hundred or ten bodyguards?" Lu Wen walked in front of the calligraphy and paintings, using his own analysis system to analyze, but only three of them were fakes.

"Li Jian, who was the first to die, also thought so, be careful of the danger from around you." Xia Chuluo sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, casually picking up a photo under the coffee table.

The photo shows a group of children, and in the center is an adult, looking at the appearance, it is Li Jian when he was young.

There are also some words of thanks behind the photo.

There are many more such photos.

Some are framed and hung on the wall, some are in a drawer, under the coffee table.

Some of the display cases also have photographs.

"Wait a minute, two distinguished guests, I'll take off the body armor first."

Li Jian's voice came from a certain bedroom.

"Body armor?"

Is the protection of going out so thorough?

No wonder he was sweating profusely just now after just trotting for a while, it's all May, and he is still wearing body armor, Li Jian is not a soldier after all, just a middle-aged fat man, it is really not easy.

"Why do you have so many pictures at home?"

Lu Wen also picked up a photo.

The content of the photos is generally similar, a group of children and Li Jian.

The words of thanks behind it basically mean that Li Jian is grateful for his donation so that these children can complete their studies.

"Sure enough, rich people like to engage in charity."

Lu Wen felt that it might be too much money.

There's nowhere to spend it.

"Lu Wen, network, check something."

"Okay."

Lu Wen understood and began to look up this information about Li Jian on the Internet.

Soon, a series of data was downloaded and packaged by him and sent to Xia Chuluo.

"Seriously, you're so much better than those unawakened androids." Xia Chuluo was obviously very satisfied that she and Lu Wen had a tacit understanding so quickly.

Replace them with ordinary androids.

will only reply with one sentence: What to look for?

Lu Wen also looked through this Li Jian's information and found that this person was really not what he thought.

"When this person was very young, his career had not yet started, and he was poor and white, and he began to sponsor those poor children."

"In this way, in addition to being a little cowardly, he is still a good person at home."

Xia Chuluo quickly flipped through the documents on his mobile phone and came to a similar conclusion.

Not long after, Li Jian changed into light clothes.

The body armor is so thick that after taking it off, this guy's stomach is still unabated, as if it hasn't been taken off.

There are still hidden advantages to growing fat.

Without waiting for the two to say anything, he began to get busy again, taking out the tea set and making tea for the two of them.

"Such a big family, don't you have a servant?" Lu Wen asked.

"Hey, they used to be hired androids, who would have thought that there would be such a thing." Li Jian's face was full of sadness, and he sighed.

The androids are obedient, perform tasks according to instructions, and all of them have passed the Turing test and are very intelligent.

But the last three Li Jian were all killed by androids.

Only one died this morning.

According to the murderer's habits, it is only two days before the next Li Jian is cool.

In this city, everyone who knows the news, named Li Jian, is now in a similar state to this Li Jian, and they are worried.

This Li Jian can think of changing his name, but he is really forced to do it, and there is no way.

"You're the only one in the house?"

Lu Wen was in charge of most of the questioning.

He was not used to this kind of empty villa, preferring to stay alone in a small room.

Of course, I had no money in my previous life, and I had never experienced a big villa.

After experiencing it in this life, I found that I was not very used to it.

"Hey, this ...... I ...... "Li Jian is hesitant."

"I understand, it's not that a widow has a disease, and it's not something that can't be said." Xia Chuluo still has the same style, and he said it directly.

Li Jian's fat face turned red, and he coughed twice to hide his embarrassment.

A few people chatted a few words.

It turned out that this Li Jian had a failed marriage when he was very young.

Although he didn't say why, Lu Wen speculated that it might be because he didn't have children.

"Once I went to those remote towns to investigate, in the winter, I saw a lot of children, one by one dressed in tatters, frozen face blue, I felt uncomfortable at that time, I wanted to do something, then there was no money, I can donate as much as I can, so I have come over the years." Li Jian told them about the origin of these photos.

He took out a few photos from his arms and said with a smile: "I put a few photos in my clothes, in fact, I don't believe in those gods and Buddhas, just have the blessings of children." ”

"You're a good person, you're sure you'll live a long life."

Lu Wen said with a smile.

As soon as he said it, he felt that something was wrong.

Isn't this a flag for Li Jian......

"That...... I'm changing my name...... Can you keep the rest of the Executive Board from knowing......"

As he spoke, Li Jian took out a white bank card from his arms and pushed it in front of Lu Wen, but his eyes stayed on Xia Chuluo.

Obviously, Xia Chuluo is in charge.

The third-level executive officer, which is close to the authority of the executive chief, is quite simple to change people's names.

"Your personality has collapsed too quickly." Lu Wen was speechless and held his forehead, "Can't you stand up to praise like this?" ”

"This ...... This...... People have two sides, and life is not a TV series, how can there be absolute good people and bad people. Li Jian smiled helplessly, "I really haven't lived enough." ”

"The card is withdrawn." Xia Chuluo said lightly, "The murderer has a strong purpose in committing the crime, it may be that he has already chosen the target, if he really wants to attack you, even if you change your name now, it will be useless." ”

"That'...... So what to do? ”

"I'll send someone over to keep you safe, don't worry, in the Executive Board, except for the interns who don't have a bar, the others are the best of the best."

Xia Chuluo put down the teacup in his hand, withdrew his crossed legs, and stood up.

She looked around as if to record the layout of the entire room.

"Lu Wen, connect to the network of the Executive Directorate and post a reward, 200,000, for the traces of the murderer."

"No problem."

The bounty was not released before, mainly for fear of causing panic in society.

But now, I can't care about so much.

It's the money of the Executive Directorate anyway.

Soon.

The news is out.

Looking out through the glass window of Li Jianjia, outside a skyscraper, huge projection news was broadcast on a rolling basis.

Among them is that bounty message.

Several people chatted for a while and appeased Li Jian.

Half an hour passed, and seeing that it was getting late, the two left Li Jian's villa.

Rainy dusks are especially charming.

The golden glow reflected in the cold steel city, elongating the shadows of pedestrians on the road.

The shadow can't speak, it has been chasing the light all its life.
