Chapter 2 Eyeballs

It was quiet outside the window, the sunlight was reflected into the room, Xiaoli raised her head and looked at the window behind me. Reading at zero o'clock

"Do you know the loyalty test?" She asked me.

"That, I don't have a girlfriend...... "Is this preparing to abuse a single dog?"

"Ever, right?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

I didn't reply, I just protested silently with my eyes, even if you are an inhuman monster, you can't just expose other people's old wounds, right?

Her gaze remained out of the window, as if she hadn't seen the change in my face, and said to herself: "The so-called loyalty test, simply put, is to find a hot girl and try her boyfriend, if he withstands the temptation and doesn't split his legs, he is a good man." The easiest way to test is to use QQ or WeChat to add friends, and then chat. β€œ

I raised half of my eyebrows, and the words "hot girl", "splitting legs", and "chattering" came out of the mouth of the lady in front of me, which was very strange, because I was already sure that the person in front of me was not "human" in the general definition.

Is this loyalty test correct? The man who can't pass the test is obviously a little distracted, and of course he is also very stupid, so he relaxes his guard against an unfamiliar QQ number. But does it have to be a good man who passes the test? Is it possible that he is particularly strong in anti-reconnaissance capabilities? ”

I agree: "It's a possibility." So, your boyfriend is the kind of person who is super vigilant - his QQ and WeChat don't even add friends at all, so how can he talk about testing? ”

"Do you think he will only have this one QQ or WeChat?"

I shook my head, but I found that the other party didn't look at me at all, so I had to speak: "As long as your boyfriend is not the kind of person who is out of touch with society, he must contact people, mobile phone, QQ or WeChat, there will always be a certain tool - he has a job, right?" ”

"Yes, I was told that it was the relationship manager of the bank, so I felt more and more suspicious."

How can the mobile phone of a bank relationship manager be so silent? Because of his work, he must have a huge customer base to maintain, and he should keep calling, text messages, QQ and WeChat messages to be normal.

I asked, "Can you tell us more about that?" ”

"I have never found a communication record with anyone else on his phone other than my communication history. I suspect he has two cell phones...... However, while he was asleep, I searched everywhere, but there was really only this one phone. ”

"He also never took me to see any of his relatives and friends. Whenever I mention it, he gets upset. He said that he had long since cut off contact with his relatives and swore that he would never get along with each other, and as for friends, he said that he didn't need friends, just me. ”

I inserted a comment: "Pretty sweet mouth. ”

Xiaoli said "um": "He is really good to me, and I love him very much, but it is precisely because of this that I feel more scared ......"

This is the so-called "the deeper the love, the more afraid of losing".

Honestly, who hasn't used a few humble words in order to save love?

Understands it too well.

I suddenly felt that removing her suspicious identity was completely a woman who fell into the bitterness of love, and it was no different from ordinary girls...... I have a little bit of a good impression of this unknown monster in front of me who calls himself Xiaoli.

Xiaoli continued: "The real-name system for relatives on his QQ and WeChat is not a big aunt or a third aunt, but 'Sun E123dm', 'Sun 345sfh', 'Sun 78EDjn' and the like,...... You can also hear it, all relatives are surnamed Sun plus a string of codes. However, no one in his family has the surname Sun! He also doesn't have the surname Sun! Moreover, although these relatives are among his friends, he never talks to them, only me! I even suspect that these so-called relatives who are assigned to the relative group are just random additions from the Internet, and they become relatives by changing the notes, but they are actually unrelated. ”

"Didn't he say that he worked in a bank, I asked which one, he said so-and-so bank, I said which one, he said isn't it all the same, ask so clearly what to do, is it important? I asked the account manager what he did, he actually asked me to check the Internet by myself, saying that he was stupid and couldn't say, I asked him about the specific work content of each day, and he said that every day is different, how to say. Anyway, they just won't tell me. ”

"Economically, it's also very strange, he only told me that he can earn more than 10,000 a month now, how much more than 10,000, and what parts it consists of, I don't know. When I asked him, he said that he could afford to support me anyway, enough for us to live. ”

"Also, he kept telling me not to go out and stay at home because I was afraid that I would suddenly become ill."

I grabbed a key point and quickly asked, "Onset?" Do you have any ailments? ”

Xiaoli's eyes finally moved, and the transparent blue glass bead-like pupils turned, and her gaze fell on my face.

And at a particular angle, I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be an extremely thin blue mist that floated out of Xiaoli's eyes, and as soon as it touched the air, it dissipated as quickly as the white air came out of her mouth when she spoke.

She paused for a moment before replying, "He said that I had a car accident half a year ago, and I still have a bit of sequelae, that is, occasional temporary amnesia. ”

"He told you? Do you actually have that? ”

"Occasionally, I really can't remember things. And I can't remember who I used to be, my family, my friends, I forgot ......"

I changed the question: "Where do you live now?" ”

"In an alley on North Labor Road. Rented house, the furniture is very basic, and our life is very simple. ”

"You can see a workers' monument nearby, right?"

"You can see a monument in an abandoned factory. Originally...... It's called the Workers' Monument. ”

Laodong North Road is in the north district of Jinguan City, near the factory area of the abandoned 739 steel mill. The factory has been very prosperous for more than 20 years, and several provincial and municipal model workers have been selected every year, and one year it was rated as a national advanced collective, and a monument to the workers was erected. However, with the later industrial upgrading and transformation, the old 739 steel mill equipment was old, and the factory area was too close to the residential area, so it was rebuilt in another place, and the old factory area was naturally abandoned.

I also know that behind the old factory of the 739 steel mill, there is a crematorium - Shiqiaopu Crematorium.

At this point in the conversation, I finally got a rough idea of the situation.

The ...... named Xiaoli in front of him Let's call it a lady for the time being, she has a very mysterious boyfriend.

No matter what Xiaoli asked him, he was vague and dodged, and there were too many low-level flaws, such as those encrypted QQ names, and the phone number that only Xiaoli could dial...... If he was really an account manager, how could no one else call him? In the end, the 2 of you who are in love have always been a world of 2 people!

In other words, Xiaoli actually doesn't know what career his boyfriend is engaged in, nor does he know how much he earns or how many assets he has, nor does he know his family status, or even whether he is married or has children...... Perhaps, Xiaoli doesn't even know her boyfriend's interests and hobbies.

If you go deeper, is the name used by Xiaoli's boyfriend real? Is the identity real?

However, Xiaoli itself is a huge problem!

I'm pretty sure......

She, Root, Ben, No, Yes, Man!

Xiaoli has no consciousness of being a "monster" at all, although the expression on her face has not changed at all since she saw me, as if she was frozen, she has not even grinned, and when she speaks, her tone is very stiff and emotionless.

At this time, she still said to me in that ancient tone: "I wondered, could my boyfriend be an agent or a spy or something?" ”

I instantly understood why she was coming to me. It turned out that he was afraid that his boyfriend was a spy, and if he was directly identified, he might go to prison...... But looking for me as a private detective, theoretically speaking, as long as we sign a confidentiality agreement, then whether it is morally or legally, I have to keep all the information I find confidential.

But what she thought was too simple, because if her boyfriend was really involved in espionage activities - that is, involving "crimes endangering national security" and "stealing state secrets", the confidentiality agreement would be invalid, because every citizen has the obligation to report and expose all crimes endangering national security.

But!

She's not an ordinary law-abiding citizen!

I tried my best to hide my skeptical gaze, because I was now beginning to wonder if Xiaoli was completely unaware of the fact that she was an inhuman monster?!

Does she still think that she is an ordinary female citizen?

I tried my best not to let myself ask the "I'm sorry, but can I ask, what kind of monster are you?" ”

The weather forecast says that today's temperature is 29 to 37 degrees, and I was already hot as a dog, but now I am sitting in my office on the second floor, and I am so cold that I want to add a coat! If I hadn't been able to see the air twisting outside my window, churning in the heat waves under the fierce sun, I would have thought I had suddenly arrived in the depths of autumn!

Of course, I wouldn't be stupid enough to say it directly, but in a very ordinary tone and a businesslike attitude, I asked Xiaoli to leave her specific address and her boyfriend's name and other information, and then routinely signed a private detective employment contract and confidentiality agreement.

Then, I drove her all the way out of the alley, helped her take a taxi, waved goodbye, and kept smiling until her muscles stiffened.

The taxi went away and became a small black dot on the road.

I "Ah Qiu", sneezed loudly, and said in my heart that this is the end, and I may have a fever.

If it weren't for the fact that I was still a little interested in the stories she told, I would have been planning to send them off.

Don't say anything else - in case she "loses her memory" again, who knows what will happen!

I don't want to die inexplicably in my office, and then the body will be found by Li Yi, who will come over tomorrow for a routine "check-in".

Speaking of which, I have to settle accounts with this guy, because Xiaoli was provoked by Li Yi, this kid!

I casually asked Xiaoli, "By the way, how did you find my detective agency?" ”

The other party's answer was - "I saw it on the Internet." ”

I haven't done anything about posting a detective agency online, so who else would do that?

In addition to my boss, the rest of this detective agency is Li Yi, a very incompetent temporary "assistant".

What kind of monster is Xiaoli?

It looks a lot like the "Zombie" I've seen in Blackwater before, but what's the deal with her bubbling cold?

Xiaoli's ice-blue glass-like eyes are by no means the eyes that humans can have, but they have a strange beauty that impresses me.

Also, what was the blue mist that overflowed from her eyes?

Just as I was thinking about it, the phone rang.

On the other end of the phone was Cheng Cheng.

"Aji, please come to the police station, there is a case that needs your help." Cheng Cheng was concise and to the point.

I've been really idle lately, if it weren't for Xiaoli's visit, I would definitely have agreed to Cheng Cheng in one bite.

But now I'm hesitating.

Should I concentrate on Xiaoli's commission first?

After all, for the first time since I have been engaged in the profession of spirit detective, I have received a commission from an inhuman creature!

Cheng Cheng listened to me on the phone for a long time without replying, but he was a little anxious: "Aji, this case is really weird, I promise you will not be disappointed!" ”

He understands my temperament, as long as it arouses my interest, as long as I start to get in touch with the case, I will not stop myself - Shen Tangzhi said that this is a disease, called obsessive-compulsive disorder......

I was still silent, and Cheng Cheng added: "The confidentiality regulations of this case are very strict, I can't describe it to you in detail on the phone, can you come?" I've worked so hard to get a temporary advisor spot for you, and if you don't, I'll have a bunch of professors rushing to get a spot! ”

"What level of secrecy?"

"I can't say it, it's very high anyway."

I thought about it, I don't have to lose anything by going to the police station to take a look at it first, right? In case Cheng Cheng didn't lie to me, it was really a confidential case, and if I didn't go, I would lose a lot of money.

Moreover, it is not said that if you become a "temporary consultant", you must solve the case, and it is not the ancient times when the army marched to fight and made a military order, and if you can't complete the task, you have to fall to the ground. I really can't help, at most I'll just tell the truth when the time comes.

"Lao Tzu believes in your evil! I'll be right away. ”

I hung up the phone, quickly sorted out my things, locked the door of the "Ji Ji Groceries" store, and then turned to the back alley and drove my second-hand Beijing jeep to the Chengnan Police Station.

Like Cheng Cheng's face, the atmosphere in the whole bureau was a little strange, and it was an exaggeration to say that it was like a great enemy, but every police officer's face was full of vigilance and nervousness.

I know the rules, so naturally I won't ask on the road.

Cheng Cheng took me directly to the forensic laboratoryβ€”the autopsy room that was actually connected to the laboratory.

I saw a crystal coffin.

Yes, it is the kind used in funerals, which has a low-temperature freezing function, and contains the body of the deceased for relatives and friends to pay respects to.

To put it simply, it can be understood as a freezer with a clear glass cover.

The crystal coffin at the scene, even decorated with flowers, was facing me at one end, and a wreath was pasted, with a big word "lay" in the middle.

In addition to Cheng Cheng and me, there was also an acquaintance present.

"Team Cheng, Detective Ji, let's stop gossiping, shall we start?"

The person who was questioned was a fat man in an oversized white forensic uniform with a golden exploding head on his headβ€”it was actually that Tang Yuan!

However, I clearly remember that this fat man was an electronic technology experimenter in the forensic department......

Cheng Cheng on the side saw my confusion and coughed: "Tang Yuan's main job is actually a forensic doctor, and electronic technology is his hobby, but he plays his hobby too well, so he has two jobs - we are a police substation, and the manpower problem is a big problem." ”

I nodded.

Understood, because Shen Tangzhi was not there, so Tang Yuan came up, it seems that this fat man's business quality in forensic medicine is good enough.
