Mechanical Memory: Chapter 5

The next morning, the sun's rays had just illuminated a small corner of the Ai Xing slum. Now the small shop in Rishimakatsu has been cordoned off by the police, and a "no entry" sign has been stopped outside the door, and there are few people in front of the door during this time.

It didn't take long for a figure to slowly see a figure approaching the door. I saw Li Zhe wearing a casual clothes and came to the door of this small shop, which had been abandoned for more than a month.

After Lidao Sheng fled, the first team of their criminal police team was affected by the serious injury and death of Xu Hezhi, which caused them to be like losing their souls and slacking off for a long time. Surprisingly, the boss did not replace another criminal police team to investigate the incident.

Because of the few words he said to Sister He Zhi last night, Li Zhe's heart felt a lot more comfortable, and he naturally raised his strength, and vowed in his heart that he must catch the bastard Li Dao Sheng.

He was just about to enter the house when he heard the sound of a car in the distance. This voice was very familiar to him, and it was the command vehicle they usually used. I only saw the car jolting on the narrow road, for fear of accidentally overturning in someone else's house.

The car slowly stopped at the door of the store, and I saw the uncle and Lu Jian jump out of the car.

"Hey, you kid really don't know what to think, you actually came to the scene of the crime on Saturday, let alone so far away." The uncle scratched his messy hair, apparently he didn't have time to take care of it after waking up.

"Why are you here?" Li Zhe asked in surprise.

"Do you need to ask? Of course, the captain didn't worry about you, so he called the two of us together. Lu Jian explained.

The uncle sighed, and then complained: "I really don't know why Captain Hao Wu is so protective of you, and he still wants me to be the driver." ”

Li Zhe smiled awkwardly, he made a phone call to Captain Hao Wu after he got home last night, because he found that Saturday was fine all day, so he planned to come to investigate the scene, maybe he could find some clues. At that time, the prisoner fled in a hurry, and there must have been many clues. What he didn't expect was that the captain actually agreed to his request without saying a word. I also specially sent two team members to come together. But in other words, being able to have a partner with him also relieved him a lot.

Entering the hut, there are still some gunshot marks left in the room after being strafed by armed robots. At the same time, some modified parts of machinery and equipment fell on the ground.

After a closer look at the first floor, it was found that it was just a very ordinary mechanical shop. I haven't even found anything that might be related to Rijima Katsu. After determining that there was nothing on the ground floor that was worth further investigating, they focused on Rishimakatsu's private loft.

After coming to the attic, Li Zhe tried not to look at the dried blood stains on the ground, which Sister He had left behind at the sacrifice of herself. At this point, he forced himself not to think too much and try to focus on the investigation.

Rishimakatsu's residence looks very simple, with a bed, a wardrobe, a set of desks, and a personal computer on the desk. There is nothing but the necessities of life. Lu Jian rummaged through the clothes in the closet, while Li Zhe lowered his head and scanned the bottom of the bed, but he didn't find anything unusual.

At this time, the uncle was looking at his personal belongings in the drawer next to the table, and he found a very old book in one of the middle drawers, so he took it out curiously. The book is called "Hanks's Adventure Diary" and seems to be a fairy tale book for children. Just as he picked it up, a photo suddenly fell out of the book.

The uncle picked it up, and there was a team of fathers and sons standing in the photo, and the boy looked to be only about ten years old, holding a very cute penguin-shaped little robot pet in his hand. The father and son smiled happily, and the building behind them could tell that it was the shop.

The uncle stared at this photo for a long time, and even Lu Jian and Li Zhe couldn't help but come over.

"This boy is Katsuya Rishima, and he looks very young." Li Zhe said.

"I heard Brother Zhou Xun say before that Rijima Sheng had a father, but then he committed suicide because he couldn't pay off his debts." Lu Jian said.

Li Zhe felt a sense of sadness: "That's the case." "It's very common for people living in slums to be cornered by debt, and he knows it.

At this time, the uncle suddenly spoke: "I always feel that the robot in his hand is a little familiar." It's my delusion, maybe. ”

They then turned their attention to Rijima's personal computer, which was undoubtedly open and revealed that a password was required. "I have no choice but to move back and wait for Brother Zhou Xun to crack it."

It didn't take long for them to move their computers to the car. The uncle wiped some beads of sweat from his forehead and said, "Hey, I didn't gain anything after working for a long time." ”

"It's okay, as long as you crack the computer, you can get a lot of clues." Li Zhe hurriedly comforted.

The uncle glanced at Li Zhe helplessly and sighed.

"Wait, did we miss something?" Zhou Xun asked suddenly.

Uncle and Li Zhe were stunned for a while, didn't think of anything, and looked at Zhou Xun blankly.

"The last time the armed robot suddenly appeared here, where did it come from? There are some small buildings around here, and there is no place to hide such a large robot. With that, he took his tablet out of his backpack and opened the satellite map.

Lu Jian enlarged the map and concentrated the display area in the slums, he carefully measured it for a while, then pointed to the east side of the map and said, "When the robot came before, judging from the direction of the sound, it should have come from the east, so it is very likely to be in this area." He pointed to a corner of the map, "There's a lot of abandoned and old warehouses here, and judging by the speed with which it arrives, it's the best place to hide robots." ”

"I do have some clue when you say that." Uncle finally reacted.

Suddenly, there was a noise not far away, and it sounded like someone was talking on the radio, but I couldn't hear what was being said. Then there was a burst of music, and the thick sound intoxicated them, as if they had arrived in an open-air bar of the last century.

"That's, what's the sound?" Li Zhe asked.

"It seems to be a public stage show that is held every Saturday in the slums, and it is said that it is very lively." Lu Jian said.

Li Zhe was taken aback and said in surprise: "You really know everything!" ”

Lu Jian was not complacent because of Li Zhe's praise, he replied: "I want to be a police officer in this city, and I don't even know how to do it in the local culture." ”

Li Zhe smiled symbolically, and suddenly had an idea, so he continued: "Then how about we go and see together?" ”

"Now? What about the warehouse? Uncle asked.

"That's right, didn't Lu Jian say that he wanted to understand the local culture, to be honest, I really don't know anything about this place, so I want to go and see it, otherwise it may be over when I come back."

Lu Jian hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and said, "Let's go, it shouldn't be much delayed." ”

Walking towards the source of the sound, soon you will come to a lively shopping street. Probably because of today's stage play, there was an endless stream of people on the small street, following their footsteps, and soon came to the stage square in the center of the small street. I saw that people were gathered in front of the stage, and the performance had already begun.

The scene appears to be in a tavern, with a young man sitting in a seat next to him, enjoying the singing of a young girl on the stage. Looking at his completely attracted demeanor and movements, you can know that he fell in love with this girl on the stage at first sight.

Just as Li Zhe and the others were about to fall into a trance, they were suddenly called back to their senses by the people on the side.

"Hello, would you like to taste the freshly baked skewers?" It turned out to be a peddler who came to sell food.

Li Zhe smelled the tempting fragrance, so he symbolically bought some and divided them among the other two.

While paying the peddler, Li Zhe inquired about the content of this stage play. The peddler said that this stage play is called "The Story of the Salted Fish", and it is a very famous stage play here. It is about a young man who originally lived in a slum, and because he had nothing to do all day, he was introduced by his parents to work as a handyman in the city center. Later, he met a part-time girl in a bar, and the two began a touching and funny love story.

What they didn't expect was that the stage effects were excellent, from the rendering of the background music and lighting effects to the sets and actors, these elements almost blended together very well to make the story even more engaging.

After watching for about 15 minutes, the three of them left with some reluctance.

It was almost noon, and the sun was shining, making the already noisy streets even hotter. And Li Zhe and the three of them were on their way back to the command car.

The uncle wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "It's good that there is navigation, otherwise I would probably get lost here." ”

Lu Jian and Li Zhe both took off their coats, and the crowd made them feel more and more irritable. Probably because of curiosity, Li Zhe always observes the situation of various stores to see what they sell. Not to mention snacks and groceries, you can occasionally see some stalls selling jewelry, jewelry, diamonds and other high-value items. Obviously, these could have been smuggled or stolen, but now they have to turn a blind eye.

Suddenly, Li Zhe suddenly felt a bump in his shoulder, and he took a few steps back before realizing that he had accidentally bumped into someone else. I saw that the man was tall and thin, with his head down, wearing a hat and a black coat, giving people a very gloomy feeling.

"I'm sorry!" Li Zhe immediately apologized.

The man didn't respond, and continued to walk forward in silence, but just as the two of them passed by, Li Zhe saw his side face clearly and was immediately shocked.

Rijima wins!

Li Zhe remembers this face very clearly, and he can remember his face even when he sleeps at night. He wanted to tell the uncle and Lu Jian immediately, but he found that because he had been looking around, the uncle and Lu Jian were already far ahead.

There is no time, and it is easy to be embarrassed in such a crowded and mixed place. Thinking of this, he immediately turned around and began to track down the man in black.
