Seeing that Yin Nana was looking at the night sky, a look of doubt flashed on his face, he turned on the light on the communicator, called Kum to go around the neighborhood, and when he returned, he said: "Nana, you really didn't find the footprints of the killer coming down the mountain, only the police, it seems that he really escaped from the air." To complete the sniping in such a short period of time, communication and logistics support must be in place. Ordinary killers can't do it. "He was thoughtful and quick-moving, and even though he only took Coomb around, he must have looked at it carefully, and if he didn't find it, he must have not.

Yin Nana sighed and said, "Pergynt suspects that the Mei military is secretly leading, and it seems that there is no suspicion of ...... mistake" hesitated, and said with regret: "He really shouldn't be careless!" Clicking on the communicator to call up the map, he found that there was a small town next to the highway, more than ten kilometers away, thought about it, and said: "The police surveillance video shows that Pergynt has been modified many times in the city, but he has not done so after leaving the city, which shows that he has considered it safe." His car came from the direction of the town, and the time between the time before the accident and the time between leaving the city was one hour, forty-two minutes and nine seconds, which was not a short time. He must have been to the town. Let's go, let's take a look. ”

At the St. Walton Police Department, the police reluctantly provided surveillance video for everyone to see, and although it was only shown once, Innana had memorized all the points in it, so she could accurately calculate the time, but when she arrived in the town, she found nothing until she left.

By this time, it was already dawn, and she saw a lonely serf-style cottage looming in the mist in the middle of the field, and she became suspicious and ordered the St. Warton police officers who were driving to drive over. The policeman just didn't hear it, and then couldn't stand the urging, and only after talking to the police station did he turn around and drive away, and it took more than half an hour to travel less than two miles. Messy and new rut marks are everywhere on the country roads, covering up old car prints, and at first glance you can tell that they have just been made.

She pushed open the door of the cabin, and the marks on the wooden floor that had been scraped with a knife, although it was smeared with oil and covered with dirt and dust, and the smell of blood did not escape her eyes. Another hasty cover-up, she thought, quietly walked into the tearoom. The old bronze tea table was very clean, there was no dust, no teapots, and no teacups, but she found a shallow water mark in the groove next to the tea table that had not been erased in time, with a faint brown color, and reached out to try it, it was cold, with the chill of an autumn night.

This matcha is enough to show that this place is not just an abandoned log cabin, as the St. Walton police claimed, and it is not even clear who the owner is. She was secretly glad that she had decided to come overnight and finally find some clues before the evidence was destroyed. Her instincts told her that the secret was in the cabin, but it was hidden deep in the invisible space. If Pergynt had been here, who was the person he wanted to meet? Is it related to Ishii and knife shaved faces? What is the secret that he wants to discover so desperately?

It was not until the afternoon that Yin Nana and the others returned to the hotel, but instead of going back to their rooms to rest, they drank drinks in a slightly avoided corner of an open-air bar on the corner of the Merisian Building, discussing their next move to avoid possible listening devices installed in the hotel. Yin Nana's eyebrows were deeply locked, and she didn't say a word, thoughtful. The deed waited silently and did not bother. After a while, her brows tightened and she whispered, "We forgot about the individual, a very low-key and important person." ”

Qi and the others immediately looked at her and listened to her: "The clue has been premeditatedly destroyed, and it is difficult to find anything again. We need to act in two ways. Gilgiu and Qom remained in St. Walton with several comrades of police officers to continue their investigation, focusing on finding out the identity of the owner of the cabin and trying to find him. This town is inhabited by an old slave man, which is strange. I saw that the tea table and the wooden house were old-fashioned and rustic, and I suspected that he was older. The furnishings are simple and clean, except for the tea table, there are a few farm tools and two bags of expired pesticides, indicating that he grew up in the countryside, has nostalgia and cleanliness, but rarely goes to the cabin. If he had gone last night, it could have something to do with Pergent's murder. Deed and I went to the embassy first, and then flew to Battlestar. ”

She didn't say who she had forgotten, and no one asked, it was discipline. Half an hour later, she and Qi arrived at the embassy in a car sent by the Huaxu Embassy in Mei, entered a closed safe room, and directly contacted the intelligence bureau of the Julu base to obtain Pergent's mobile phone information. Before leaving for the slave country, Pergynt left his phone at the intelligence bureau and bought a new one.

Innana looked directly for the contact person and quickly called up Milch's contact number before saying to Ambassador Kazuki: "Pergent asked Battlestar Police Chief Mirch to help find Minako last month. I think that given the gravity of the case and the precarious situation of Pergent, the man he entrusted must be very reliable. He was able to find Milch to show that he could be trusted, and he probably knew some inside information, so I was going to fly to Battlestar to meet him immediately. ”

Three hours later, Innana and Chee flew to Battlestar aboard a Melissian Federal Airlines hypersonic spaceliner. She did not go directly to the space police station, but asked her Uncle An Qi to come forward, invited Milch to the Combined Fleet Command, and after meeting, she directly identified herself on the spot, and called the chief of the Huaxu Police Department in Longcheng, asking him to explain the situation to Milch in person to win trust.

This trick really worked, Milch was already suspicious of Pergent's death, and he met at the headquarters of the Combined Fleet, so he was even more worried, and when he saw that Yin Nana took the initiative to identify herself and came to chase the murderer, he was immediately relieved, but he still had concerns, because he saw that Yin Nana was not like a policeman, and her style was vigorous and resolute, but she was quite like a soldier, but she didn't break it.

Inana smiled and said, "I've been assisting Mr. Pell in his investigation recently, you can trust me. ”

Mirch nodded, and said with a heavy heart: "Peil said before that he stayed in the Julu base during this time, and I wanted to rest assured, but I didn't expect an accident to happen, which is really sad." I have worked with him for forty or fifty years, and I was recommended by him to serve as the head of the Space Police Commission. He would rather go to the police station in the central city of Longcheng to be an inconspicuous little detective than show his face. There are three suspicious points in this case: First, he first went to the country of Slave and then to St. Walton, indicating that there are important clues in the country of Slave, so what did he find there, and is it directly related to his murder? The second is that the mobile phone only has ordinary information such as booking air tickets and hotels, but there is no call record with others, which is unreasonable, who deleted the information? What's in that message, like a specific contact? The third is to assume that your suspicions about the cabin are correct, then the content of his conversation with others is the key. But neither the St. Walton police nor you found the recording tool at the scene, which means that there must have been an invisible person at that time, because the tool will not be lost......"

Yin Nana was stunned and asked, "Why is there someone else, and not deliberately hidden by the St. Walton police?" ”

"Perjent is an official of the alliance headquarters and the inspector of the police department in the central city of Dragon City, and the assassination is more sensitive, implicating three parties, and the St. Walton police dare not mess around, because they can't afford to take this responsibility. Besides, if they hide evidence privately, they will not notify you to send someone to help investigate it in the first place, and it is precisely because they do not have it that they invite you to go to prove your innocence. ”

Innana thought it made sense, but she couldn't figure out why the cabin scene was vandalized, it only happened after she arrived in the town, it was obvious that someone was deliberately hiding something, and the only one who knew that she was going to the town was the St. Walton police. Destroying evidence in a very short period of time is not a sign of self-incrimination.

Milch saw through her thoughts and said: "Peer Gent was killed the night before, I quickly got the news, and I found out that within half an hour before Peer was killed, two more people died one after another. One shot himself in a wooded area about a mile away from the cabin, and the other at his home in St. Walton. Coincidentally, both of them are slaves and are also very old, one is called Ashiwo and the other is called Hirano. I used my connections to verify and found out that Ashiwo's real name is Kitano Masa, a Class C war criminal, and he was the deputy commander of the Ishii Army of the Misty Moon War. At that time, a group of slave war criminals were secretly escorted to Meiguo, and Pelgent pursued them for many years and almost died. This Kitano Masa is the one who died near the cabin, and it is likely that he is the owner of the cabin. If I guess correctly, Pelgan ventured to St. Walton to see him. And with Kitanomasa's status as a war criminal and military rank, he probably has some important clues. The traces of his body being moved are also obvious, and they are also covered with leaves, indicating that someone deliberately covered up the truth and did not want outsiders to know that he was killed. This makes me even more suspicious that there was a third person at that time......"

"You said he committed suicide, wasn't he assassinated?"

"Judging by the marks of the bullet burning the skin, the shot was fired very closely. At this distance, the police usually determine suicide. Of course, it is not excluded that the killer shot at close range, but this requires more evidence. If he had to be killed, the most suspected murderer was Pergent. But this is illogical, at least for now, it is not clear that he has a motive to kill Kitanomasa. He had been looking for these war criminals for many years, but he had never killed anyone. The scene of the log cabin was vandalized, and it should be that the St. Walton police are worried that you will find out the identity of Kitanomasa as a war criminal. This is a very sensitive matter. As for the situation of this batch of war criminals, the Meiguo military has not declassified it so far. ”

Yin Nana sighed, and finally understood a little, thinking that Kitano Masa, the major general and deputy commander of the original Ishii Army, must know some secrets, and Pergyn was indeed killed after making a major discovery. So, who will the Invisible Man be? Is it the same person who killed Pergynt? No, the murderer appeared halfway, didn't have enough time, and most of them didn't even go to the cabin. From this point of view, the person who transferred Kitanomasa's body and took away the recording tools should be the invisible person. Where to find this guy?

"I understand your feelings about finding the real culprit for Pell. But it must be said, don't get the direction wrong......"

Innana blinked wide, puzzled. Milch asked her, "What is Peer looking for in the end?" ”

"Kanako."
