Chapter 37: The Man in the Night (5)
The security zone is under martial law again.
For those old fellows, martial law was a common thing, and in the past two years, the academy has been plagued by many disasters, from the red-eye invasion to the Slayer to the Night King. It has been more than 20 years since the establishment of the security zone of the Shanghai Naval Military Academy, and there have been hunter invasions in the past, but apparently not as often as in the last two years.
I don't know when the safe zone became a priority for hunters.
The old fritters don't care much about martial law, they follow the colonel all the way, they have been through a hundred battles, what battles have they never seen? The martial law in the security zone is nothing more than that it is not allowed to go out at will, it is not allowed to act alone, it is not allowed to unarm, and at the same time it is not a big deal to control the consumption of resources and energy.
But for the survivors who have just entered the safe zone, martial law can cause a certain amount of psychological panic.
Seven or eight months have passed since the end of the Battle of the Night King, and most of the past six months have been uneventful, and many survivors have regarded the safe zone as a truly safe place. But going under martial law means that something is happening in the academy and that it is not safe here.
The news of Lu Xun's disappearance was blocked, in fact, it didn't matter if it was blocked or not, anyway, the people in the executive department knew about it, and the strong men all learned that their top boss had evaporated in a secret room where there was no second way to leave, and then they all marveled at Minister Lu's vast powers and his ability to escape through walls.
They began rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find people...... Of course, it's not looking for Lu Xun alone, the people of the executive department are searching for the traces of three people at the same time, the first is Lu Xun, the head of the executive department, the second is the murderer Lemon who is suspected of killing Ai Ye, and the third is difficult to say if it is a human being, it is the mysterious creature that invaded Omega, but the colonel and the middle-aged people speculate that it is more likely to be human, because the hunter obviously does not know how to operate a supercomputer.
The Patrol's office was cordoned off, every drawer was opened and inspected, and someone in the Enforcement Department might have thought that the Minister could afford to shrink into a space the size of an urn.
Lemon and Mugwort's room was also cordoned off, but the Executive Department found no valuable clues.
Aiye's body is still parked in Ariana's laboratory, the library's virology research institute is the only place capable of preserving corpses for a long time, Arianna's autopsy report has long been placed on the colonel's desk, there is no resistance, a fatal knife, ruthless and accurate, very lemon style.
A middle-aged man stands in front of a whiteboard with three photographs pasted on it.
Sean sat behind his desk.
The first photo is of a blood-stained black-handled dagger.
The second photo is the damaged note.
The third photo is of the crime scene, with Ai Ye hanging her head and leaning against the wall, her body and floor stained red with blood.
They were continuing to analyze the homicide case, which had been interrupted in the middle of the analysis by the Omega invasion, and now that the problem was solved, the work had to be done.
The murder of Ai Ye is the only one of the three things that has some clues, and the academy can only start from here.
"There are very many suspicions in this homicide case, whether it is the modus operandi or the murderer himself." The middle-aged man clicked on the photo on the whiteboard, "The whole murder case has a very weird atmosphere...... Hey, old man, are you listening? ”
"Yes." The Colonel nodded.
"I think you're about to fall asleep."
Sean pinched his eyebrows, closed his eyes hard, and then opened them, "I'm a little tired." ”
Even if it is a colonel's strongman, he is too tired to fight any spirit at the moment, accidents one after another, Maxwell Sean is overwhelmed and exhausted, and his energy is excessively consumed, if he can be twenty years younger, he may be able to hold on, but now Maxwell Hugh Sean is an old man, his physical strength and energy are not as good as before, he should have retired at this age before the end of the world, and lived a life of children and grandchildren around his knees, but in this era, he had to stand on the battlefield with a gun in his hand.
The Colonel is the spiritual pillar of the entire safe zone, and if even he falls, then no one will be able to stabilize the situation.
"You go on." The colonel sat up straight.
"According to the process of the crime restored by the surveillance video, it was three useless notes that lured Ai Ye to the scene of the crime, and then committed murder." The middle-aged man said, "The surveillance camera only captured Ai Ye, not Sanwu, as for this note...... There are a total of seven characters: 'today', 'day', 'night', 'to', 'ten', 'building', 'have', and 'one', all of which are Chinese characters, and we tried to restore them, and the original sentence may be like this: From half past five to building thirteen tonight, I have something to give you. ”
"Can you confirm it's half past five?" The colonel asked.
"It could be half past five, or maybe it was a little earlier, but I think it's half past five because 'half past five' is three words." The middle-aged man pointed to the photo, "This note is damaged exactly where the three words are located." ”
The colonel nodded.
"So how did the latter sentence 'I have something for you' come about?"
"There are only two words left on the note in this passage, one is 'have', the other is 'one', and the position of the two words is next to each other, then the original sentence is likely to be someone has something......" The middle-aged man explained, "The biggest possibility of this lack of subject is 'I', of course, the possibility of 'you' cannot be ruled out, we just think that 'I' is more likely, if this subject is 'I', then it will be connected to 'I have a ......', according to normal writing habits, It's quite possible that I have something. ”
"In order to lure the victim to the scene of the crime, it is very likely that the murderer has something to give to the victim and let her pick it up in person." "But we don't know exactly what it is...... It can make the little girl rush to the scene of the crime in a hurry, and even ignore the better dinner. ”
"I heard that little girl likes Lu Xun very much." The colonel said, "What can be more important than having dinner together can only be the life of Lu Xun, right?" ”
The middle-aged man was stunned.
Lu Xun's life?
Lemon threatens Ai Ye with Lu Xun's life? Is this possible? That embryo killer would rather die himself than protect the safety of this kid Lu Xun, right?
Anna's conjecture...... What do you think? The colonel asked.
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then realized what Sean was referring to...... Ariana speculates that the Three Nothings are no longer the Three Nothings, and that the real Lemon was completely dead at the moment of her complete corpse, and now this is just a fake created by the Night King's remodeled personality.
Anna's conjecture is well-founded.
Lemon seems to have regained her life after returning to the academy, and the degree of doomsday virus infection in her body has been greatly reduced, which is a strange thing that violates medical common sense, and the existing theories cannot explain it at all, and the only person who can do this kind of thing is the Night King.
In other words, the Night King has definitely moved his hands and feet on Lemon's body, you don't know what the monster has done, he can change Lemon's hands and feet, he can also change her brain, and he can even recreate a three-nill one.
A completely fake Sanwu may not have the slightest affection for Lu Xun at all, nor does she have any feelings for other people in the school, so it is not surprising that she can do these things.
