Chapter 44: Sheriff Black

After being full of wine and food, Chen Hao and the others walked out of the restaurant in a daze.

Chen Hao didn't know how much he drank, so he remembered that he had been drinking with Zhentian and had vomited several times.

Han Feng was also a little drunk, and he spoke well, but he walked staggeringly.

But Shi Lei was a little too much, and after drinking the circle, he has now begun to stand on the street and dance awkwardly.

The most normal of these people is Zhentian, as if they were all right, and they are still holding a bottle of wine and drinking.

As for the others, they basically didn't drink much, and their consciousness was quite clear.

After eating, everyone didn't stay any longer, and went back to their respective accommodations.

……

In the evening, Peter came home as usual. When he was about to get home, he saw a crowd of police officers surrounding his door.

He approached the policemen and heard two policemen talking: "...... The deceased was an elderly couple who usually had a good relationship with the neighbors. ”

“…… The methods of murder are very professional, and they are all killed with one knife. ”

"What's going on!" Peter panicked and hurried to his home.

One of the policemen stopped him at the door and asked, "Do you live here?" ”

"Yes, I ......"

Peter was stunned.

Because he saw two bodies lying in the living room of his house.

"Uncle Ben! Aunt Mei! ”

"Who the hell did this?"

Peter fell to his knees, clutching Uncle Ben's corpse, hammering the floor in despair.

Since Peter now has Spider-Man's abilities, he hammers the floor down in two hits.

"You're Peter?" A man who looked like a sheriff walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Please calm down, our technicians are already investigating the scene, and I believe that the murderer will be found soon." ”

"How do you calm me down? By the time you know who the murderer is, he'll have gone to another country! Besides, isn't there any surveillance footage around here? Don't you know who it is by looking at it? Peter's emotions began to spiral out of control.

At this time, a policeman came up and said to the sheriff: "All the surveillance has been breached, and there is no trace left at the scene." ”

"Looks like a repeat offender." The sheriff guessed.

"In addition, we also found one thing at the scene, that is, the victim's family property is not missing."

"How is that possible?" The sheriff frowned.

He has dealt with quite a few cases, but he has never seen such a strange case as today. The murderer has no motive at all, is it possible that he will not only kill his life but not make money?

"The deceased is an old couple, and they don't usually have bad friends with anyone...... sheriff whispered to himself.

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he looked at Peter and asked tentatively, "Peter, did you visit Columbia University in your high school?" ”

"yes."

"It's related to that group of Chinese students again, damn it!"

"What about the international students?"

After Peter calmed down, he thought about it carefully and remembered the two groups of Chinese students who had fought in the cafeteria before.

"What's wrong with them?"

"Seeing that you are also one of the victims of this case, let me tell you...... Our police suspect that they are agents from China, who are well-trained, physically far superior to ordinary people, and also have extremely strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities. ”

Peter stood up and said, "But my uncle and aunt don't know them at all!" ”

"They're probably here on a mission, and the cause of your uncle's and aunt's deaths is probably in conflict with their mission." The sheriff touched his chin and analyzed.

"What conflict can my uncle have with their mission?" Peter asked.

The sheriff said to himself: "We found a total of four groups of Chinese students in New York, three of which have conclusive evidence of crimes, but we have not been able to find their crimes in the last group. ”

"On my instinct, this time it should be the last group to do it."

I have to say that the sheriff's ability to solve cases is still okay. It is not easy for this sheriff to use the limited information at this stage to come up with such an answer.

If Chen Hao and the others were here, they would probably give the sheriff a thumbs up.

"You wait," said Peter, "I don't think the relationship between the four of them is very good. ”

"It's not good......," the sheriff nodded in agreement.

"By the way," said the sheriff suddenly, "there's one more thing you probably don't know. ”

"What?"

"Last night, there was a brawl in front of your house, and two international students were found dead at the scene."

Peter asked, "What time exactly?" ”

"Between twelve and two in the morning."

"I'm sleeping at this time...... What are they doing at my house? Peter looked puzzled.

"Follow me."

The sheriff took Peter to the place of the incident, which was very close to Peter's house, about thirty or forty meters. There were still faint traces of undried blood on the ground, indicating that the battle was quite fierce.

The sheriff took out a pack of cigarettes, handed it to Peter, and motioned to him.

"I'm sorry, I won't." Peter said.

"It's better for young people not to smoke." After saying that, he ordered one for himself.

He took a deep breath, his brow furrowed.

Then he said: "Both bodies were found nearby, and it seems that these two groups should belong to a hostile force. ”

"We have the names and photos of these two groups, and they are materials from your high school."

"Here, take a look." The sheriff said, pulling out a stack of papers from the inside pocket of his clothes.

Peter took it and looked at it carefully.

The file above is very detailed, and it is so detailed that someone won the second prize in the primary school essay competition.

"Is it possible that the file is fake?" Peter still didn't believe it, how could this group of high school students who killed their uncle and aunt be such an ordinary file?

"Their files are completely authentic, and there are no loopholes at all. You know, our country's intelligence work is very good, and no one can cheat it, unless ......"

Peter looked at the sheriff, waiting for his next words.

"Unless, these files, are all true."

"It can't be!" Peter roared.

"Sherlock Holmes once said, 'Eliminate all the impossible, and what remains is the truth, even if it is no longer possible.'"

"You pulled me here just to tell me that they're just a bunch of normal high school students?" Peter's voice doubled again.

"You misunderstood me, their sins can be condemned, but don't you want to know why they did this?"

"I'm not interested in their fight at my doorstep," Peter glared at the sheriff fiercely, "I just want to ask you to find a way to catch the criminals, not to analyze why those students killed my uncle and aunt!" ”

"I want revenge too!" The sheriff threw the cigarette to the ground and kicked it hard.

"My brother and dozens of his brothers died at the hands of this group of international students!"

"I'm sorry, sheriff, but I was a little uncool just now."

Peter sensed his gaffe and quickly apologized.

"Hey, I'm not throwing a tantrum at you." The sheriff's tone softened.

"By the way, where are you going to live in the future?" The sheriff saw that the atmosphere was not very good, and quickly changed the topic.

"I'll live with my friend in the future, his house is big, I'll talk to him, he should agree."

"Well, it's so late, I'll drive you." The sheriff said.

Peter saw that the traffic was indeed inconvenient at such a late hour, so he nodded in agreement.

The sheriff's car drove quickly, and in a short time they arrived at the home of Peter's friend, Harry Osborne.

"Study hard and get more scholarships when you enter university." After the sheriff got out of the car, he gave Peter a final word of advice.

"Okay."

Peter thought for a moment and said, "Well, I don't know what you call it." ”

"My surname is Black." The sheriff waved his hand and drove away.

……

In the evening, the sheriff returned to his home.

He walked straight to his desk and pulled out a pen and a few blank sheets of paper.

Sheriff Black wrote quickly on a piece of paper, and he represented the four groups of Chinese students in a circle.

At the bottom of each circle, he wrote their respective criminal records.

"If you put this information together, you might be able to find something ......"

He stared at the piece of paper, lost in thought.

In fact, what he didn't understand the most was last night, why did those two groups of people fight? And the next day, Peter's uncle and aunt died.

It seems that the mission goals of the people on both sides should be different, and in the end it will lead to a war.

Do you want to kill and protect at the same time?

"Looks like it's more complicated than I thought......

He scratched the back of his head and placed the pen on the table.

Then, he looked to one corner of his desk and picked up a picture frame over there.

The person in the photo is Sheriff Black, who was killed by Wang Hongyang and them before.

"Brother, believe me, I will definitely help you get revenge." He clenched his fists.
