Chapter 155: Communication

Starlight saw the Medic sprinkle a new type of fixative on the three corpses on the ground, so he stepped forward and whispered in a slightly nether accent, "Can you roughly determine the time of death?" The doctor glanced up at him, as if he was looking at a nether bun who didn't understand anything, and as if because of his status as an investigator, the doctor held back the mean words that had reached his lips and just shook his head.

Starlight took the doctor's expression in his eyes and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. "Is the concept of class solidification and discrimination against people in the lower realm so rampant?" While thinking, he unconsciously straightened the linen clothes on his body. This garment was brought back from the Nether. No way, he has just been transferred back from the Blue Star of the Nether, and it has been less than two days since he was assigned to work in this area, and the new silk police uniform specially customized for him by the police department is still being made. The police mission was too urgent this time, so he could only come in this linen dress that ordinary people in the nether world often wear. He thought that with the quality of the people on the pink star, there would be no discrimination, but he didn't expect to be despised.

He ignored the doctor's attitude, but directly stepped forward and reached out and pressed the face of a corpse, feeling the elasticity of the skin and muscles underneath the face, he roughly estimated that the three people had been dead for at least an hour.

Xinghui has been doing murder investigation work in the Nether for more than a hundred years, and he has seen as many corpses as the stars in the sky, but those are all cases of ordinary people being killed, like this kind of person who has entered the Nether Realm being killed, he has only seen it once before, after all, there are not many people in the Nether Realm, so he has little experience in this area.

The last time he saw a corpse in the Netherworld was more than eighty years ago. At that time, it had been more than thirty years since he had been ostracized and transferred to the office of the Nether. It was a coup d'Γ©tat in the Xiongshan Empire. Three of the royal family members of the Xiongshan Empire were in the realm of seclusion, they were engaged in art, agriculture and archaeology, so they had no force at all, and they had no time to escape, and they were killed by the revolutionaries who stormed the palace.

As the representative of Pink Star in charge of the investigation of the Blue Star Office, Xing Guang participated in the post-mortem work at the scene. At that time, there was no shaping agent to shape the corpse, and the people present could only scramble to inspect and analyze while watching the corpse slowly become transparent, and finally turn into clear water. Starlight knew that the opportunity was rare, so he tried to feel the different changes in the process of the three corpses by touching, seeing, and sniffing. This is also the reason why he can now barely calculate the time of death of three people on the ground.

The doctor's incompetence made him helpless, but he could understand it. After all, the security of the Pink Star is so good that murders are almost unheard of. When he arrived at the police station, his predecessor, who had taken over his shift, told him, "I have been working in the area for 20 years, and the most serious police incident has been two incidents, one was a theft, and the final result of the investigation was that the buyer forgot to pay." The other was the fugitive slave incident, and the final finding was that the shy slave was lost, but he was too embarrassed to ask ordinary citizens for directions. ”

Moreover, this doctor is a young man in his fifties, and at his age, he may not even have seen a corpse that has died of old age in the netherworld, let alone a homicide. And he's not a forensic doctor, just an ordinary doctor. Therefore, Starlight can't even hope that he can give him any useful information on the spot.

But the other party's eyes still made Xinghui uncomfortable, in the eyes of the other party, he still thought that he was a dirt bun who had just come up from the nether realm, who didn't know that Xinghui was a full-headed citizen who was upright, with a realm standard and meritorious service, and the doctor was at most a second-order citizen who had reached the realm level, and Xinghui's status was definitely above the other party. He pulled the linen cloth clothes on his body, looked at the circle of onlookers in silk costumes in the distance, and said in a loud voice: "I am a new investigator in this city, and I am not very familiar with the local situation, so I want to ask for the assistance of all citizens." Is there anyone among you who recognizes the identity of the deceased? If so, you can just come up and tell me. This will reduce my investigation time and will be very helpful in solving the case as quickly as possible. ”

"They're graduates of the Elite Academy, and today is their graduation day, and you can see they're still wearing their graduation gowns!" A chubby aunt kindly reminded.

"I'm not blind, of course I can see that they are wearing graduation gowns." Xingguang said secretly in his heart, but he couldn't say this, but instead showed a sincere smile and said with encouragement: "Thank you for the reminder, does anyone else have found anything else?" ”

He knew that his behavior of asking for help from passers-by was a bit amateurish in the eyes of ordinary detectives, but he didn't feel that he had done something wrong, Pink Star is different from Blue Star, the people here are honest, kind, and helpful, and in this social climate, it is not impossible to use a little more means to mobilize the masses.

"This should be a young master from Shuifu, and I don't know the other two." A shop owner selling dim sum said, pointing to one of the corpses.

"Oh? How do you recognize him? Starlight asked.

"He often comes to me to buy Reiki desserts, and he uses Shuifu's money card to settle the settlement."

Starlight looked up at the pavilions in the sky that loomed in the clouds, trying to tell which one was the Water House. As he was watching, he heard someone next to him, "Wow! With a sound, he turned his head to look, and it turned out to be Ni Renqiang snickering.

"Laughing at what?" Starlight asked his assistant. Ni Renqiang covered his mouth and shook his head, indicating that he was embarrassed to say. Starlight knew that he must have opened his mouth wide when he looked up at the sky just now, and his assistant was laughing at him for being too rustic. So Xinghui didn't pay attention to him anymore, but walked to the corpse of the young master of the Shui family, squatted down, and turned over the things on the corpse.

He first searched the two wrists of the corpse. Because people who are usually equipped with luxury talismans will wear the talisman string on their wrists, which is both beautiful and practical, and can also show off their wealth. Sure enough, on the left wrist of the young master of the Shui family, there is a bracelet composed of five talismans, hidden under a salamander skin bracer, and this salamander skin bracer is also covered by a slightly longer coat sleeve, it seems that the young master of the Shui family is usually not a flamboyant person.

Starlight took off the string and studied it. The five talismans on the string are all inlaid bone talismans with a surface solidified in gold, but they all have different functions. One was an amulet, but its owner was now a corpse, and it wasn't activated. This means that either it is too low-level, or the murderer is too clever. One is a signal shield, "This is contraband." He thought. Then look at the third one, this is a talisman that Xingguang does not recognize, only to see a wing engraved on the surface of the talisman, which seems to be a talisman related to flight, and there are wisps of energy emitted from the talisman body, indicating that it has been used recently. The fourth is a high-level rush charm, and the fifth is a communication charm.

He picked up the communication charm and tried it, but there was no secret key, so he activated the communication charm and sent a wave of thoughts to the address of the largest transit station in the charm: "Is this the Water Mansion?" ”

A thought came back: "This is Shuifu, may I ask which department of Shuifu are you looking for?" ”

"I'm looking for the head of your foreign affairs department."

"Okay! Hold on. ”

"Xiaoyou, what's the matter?" A strong thought came to me, with a hint of impatience in it.

"Hello! I am not the master of the talisman, my name is Xinghui, I am the new investigator of the Fenlan District Police Department, I found this communication charm from a corpse at the murder scene in the north of the city of Fenlan, I suspect that this corpse that has entered the secluded realm is from your mansion, and I hereby inform your mansion to send someone to identify the corpse. ”

The other party paused, and finally came a thought: "Okay, let's send someone over." ”

Xinghui put down the communication charm, and felt that there was nothing to do for a while, so he turned around and asked Ni Renqiang, "What were you laughing at just now?" Is there anything wrong with my words and actions? ”

"Nope! No! Ni Renqiang explained, while looking at the busy doctor in the distance and the crowd of onlookers in the distance.

Starlight was about to take the time to reprimand this blind subordinate for a few words, when a figure appeared in the air in the distance.
