Chapter 620: On the verge of being recognized
The investigation has made no progress, and Kevin has been assassinated. By the time everyone returned to the sheriff's building, and then pulled out a squad to investigate, the assassin had disappeared without a trace, and as always, no trace had been left behind.
Judging from the angle and speed of the arrow, it was about 800 meters away on the roof of a building. Kevin can sense the emotions of the people around him through his mental power, and he can predict murderous energy, but he is obviously powerless at such a distance. The bodyguards of the two gangs did not react, and the reason why the community security guard was able to react was also a coincidence, according to him, and he just caught a glimpse of something unusual out of the corner of his eye.
The strength of the other party is difficult to estimate, if it is shot with a bow drawn by hand, it must be a strong person above the seventh or eighth order, otherwise the two eighth-order bodyguards will not be unable to react. But if it is launched mechanically, it can also be used by ordinary people, and although such a machine must be extremely expensive, it is not impossible to get hold of.
So, what's next? This made everyone ponder.
Is the killer related to this case? Was it sent by the person who Kevin offended in the past? Or is it sent by the person who offends him now? Theoretically, now that the killer has been killed in the face of the sheriff, he can't be ignored. But in fact, it is really powerless.
Now one case is not closed, and another case is rising. Everyone is working hard, but there is no light at all. It always feels like the masters in the shadows come and go freely, turning everyone around, and they can only do stupid things.
For example, what kind of "collecting countless careless words", everyone is not brainless people, they are not stupid dock gangs, and they feel that this is more or less wrong. But they didn't dare to refute it, they all knew that these three people were masters who had been invited with great difficulty, and people with superior intelligence, how could they do stupid things? They must be too stupid to understand the mystery.
At dawn, Kevin and the others returned to the conference room of the sheriff's building, and the conference room next door was still in the midst of the casual conversation of the group, and a noisy voice came, which sounded full of energy.
"I actually talked all night, but I didn't find the key to solving the case. Kevin couldn't help but smile wryly.
The community security guard also smiled: "Then Mr. Kevin, what does the problem be?"
"There are only two possibilities, either the denominator is too big and the key to solving the case is not so easy to appear, or the captain is too stupid and the key to solving the case has appeared, and he has no ability to grasp it. Kevin responded with a smile.
Cuncao interrupted: "Let's talk about it for now." ”
Kevin replied: "For now, the plan remains the same, and the crumbs are taught." I was going to check last night, but I met an assassin and I went to check the assassin. As a result, the assassins didn't find out, and the crumbs didn't push it. But it's okay, it's the same today, I don't believe there are assassins every time?"
"Mr. Kevin, my subjective feelings about the Sect of Crumbs may have affected your judgment. Mr. Cuncao disagreed.
"It's not a matter of subjective emotion," Kevin replied, "and now we're a sheriff and a gangster, in other words, the murderer is most likely not a sheriff or a gangster." As a third-party force, the crumbs also assassinated me yesterday, which can be understood as obstructing the investigation. On the surface of all kinds of signs, they are very suspicious. ”
"No," the security guard shook his head, "I'm fairly familiar with the local crumbs, but they don't have the ability." Whether it's assassinating you or killing that bald tattooed guy. ”
The two bodyguards behind him also stepped forward to explain: "The arrow yesterday was very professional. is more professional than us, and the crumbs are still a new force in our city, so they shouldn't have this ability. ”
"And to push the crumbs to teach, it's not for you and me to decide, this must be determined by the upper-level game," the community security guard regretted, "We only planned to knock on the side last night, and we didn't really go to push flat." Now in broad daylight, I can't move. ”
Kevin looked at him seriously: "You are not the same as you were three years ago. ”
The community security guard couldn't help but be surprised: "You know me three years ago?"
"There's intelligence inside Lou Paulle, and I've had the pleasure of witnessing it," Kevin replied, "and the intelligence has a pretty high opinion of you. ”
"Oh, what's the comment?" the community security guard was curious.
"Born at the wrong time. ”
The community security guard showed a bitter expression for a moment, then sighed and looked out the window: "Take me to say hello to the Assassin President of your country." ”
Kevin couldn't help but be stunned, and then he realized that the subjective evaluation in the original information was written by the assassin president. No wonder the tone is arrogant and contemptuous of everything, the dignified city lord is defined as a wine bag and rice bag, and the black and white all-you-eat aristocratic leader is defined as a dry bone in the mound...... And the security guard of this community actually knew the Assassin president, what kind of case happened in the first place?
"It's good to be born at the wrong time," the community security guard laughed again, "In the future, I will print the words 'born at the wrong time' on my clothes and wear them every day." In the future, everyone will call me a brother who is not born at the right time!hahaha!"
Everyone could only laugh embarrassedly.
"By the way, what is our city lord's evaluation in your intelligence?"
Seeing that there were a lot of people here, Kevin still kept a little talk: "Ah, I didn't see it much, I don't know." ”
Everyone laughed, knowing that Kevin just didn't say anything.
After everyone finished laughing, Mr. Cuncao calmly spoke: "Actually, it can be seen from here that Mr. Kevin is indeed here with a mission." Otherwise, I wouldn't have seen such detailed information, would I?"
"I'm just ......," Kevin also wanted to explain.
"Needless to say," Cuncao responded, "it doesn't prove anything, I'm just saying it casually." ”
Kevin sighed, trying to refute something, but felt that what he said was nonsense. There was silence again, and only the "casual words" from the next door kept coming. At this moment, it is simply a mockery of Kevin.
Cuncao sighed: "I'll tell you the truth, I can't do anything about this case." ”
Everyone was stunned, and their expressions were different for a while. Some people showed regret and secretly sighed that they were just a writer, not a professional investigator. Some people are still in disbelief, and they can't even help but wonder if this is also a certain routine, taking retreat as advance, such as to lead out the real murderer or something?
"There are too many uncertain factors, and there are too many unknown things," Cuncao regretted, "The murderer's skills and combat effectiveness are also much higher than mine, and may even be higher than the sheriff here." In this case, how can I investigate the case? There is nothing I can do. ”
The security guard of the community was silent for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "Even if the real murderer can't be found, Mr. Cuncao should always have some ideas to provide us." ”
"There is no evidence, and even that there can be no evidence, so I still don't say it. Cuncao shook his head.
Kevin smiled bitterly for a moment, then turned his head and asked the community security guard: "Then, what is the opinion of my brother who was born at the wrong time?"
Brother was silent for a long time, and suddenly rubbed his hands: "It's been a long time since I've been on the yellow net, I'll go home last time." ”
Everyone was full of question marks, as if they didn't hear clearly. And the brother didn't wait for everyone's reaction, turned around directly, and then jumped out of the window to escape. Everyone hurried to the window and shouted, "Hey!"
There was only a faint voice in the distance: "You can do it yourself, I can't help it." Goodbye......"
Everyone had no choice but to sit back in their seats, and their eyes couldn't help but look at the last of the three. Only he doesn't seem to have given up, but his suggestions feel so retarded......
Kevin really lived up to expectations: "Since these two people can't do anything, then I'll tell me." ”
"You already know who the murderer is?"
"Pretty much. Kevin replied.
"Almost?" the crowd was at a loss, and the answer didn't feel right.
"Tomorrow we will gather and find a more luxurious hotel, after all, everyone is a person with status. Then I'll expose the killer!" Kevin replied.
Everyone couldn't help but glance at each other, and Cuncao couldn't help asking: "Is there any purpose in doing this?"
"Of course there is," Kevin replied, "and the murderer is not so easy to act, and the murderer may not be a person, but an organization." In this case, what we need is a game at the top, not an ordinary criminal investigation. So choosing a high-end tavern is the most suitable. By the way, which tavern is the most exclusive here?"
Everyone hesitated for a moment and replied one after another: "If you are the highest, there is only the Six-Star Mang Hotel." Where can we still receive foreign guests? ”
"Then be there," Kevin replied, "and tomorrow I will invite the city lord, the noble chiefs who are already here, plus the Empire, to gather together at the Six Star Mang Hotel." When the time comes, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer. ”
Everyone looked at each other, and their eyes were full of suspicion. Someone couldn't help but ask, "Can you tell me in advance, what kind of reply is it?"
"There are too many people here, it's hard to guarantee that there are no mutual undercover agents or anything like that," Kevin replied, "and the upper game is not suitable for talking about here, you don't need to be too curious, there will be results tomorrow." ”
Mr. Cuncao smiled: "Since Mr. Kevin is already confident, then you might as well take a look." ”
Everyone discussed for a moment, and there was really no other way at the moment. The head of the gang's investigation team immediately said: "I'll contact the master." And the sheriff immediately contacted the lord of the city.
However, the replies of both were very slow, and it was not until the afternoon that the head of the gang's investigation team approached Kevin alone and asked about tomorrow's content. And said that there are only two people now, can you tell who is the murderer? Kevin still believes this person and refuses, and insists on waiting until tomorrow. Soon, a sheriff approached Kevin alone, but Kevin refused.
It wasn't until around the evening that the lord of the city came in person, drank all his subordinates, and then met with Kevin alone to set up an enchantment, and no one could eavesdrop.
At this time, Kevin spoke to the city lord: "Actually, the murderer is still uncertain. ”
"Huh?" the city lord couldn't help but be surprised, "Then ...... you?"
"The city lord doesn't need to panic, although the murderer is uncertain, but the basic scope has been decided," Kevin replied, "Tomorrow is just the right time to gather everyone, and I will use words to fool people out." ”
"Will it work?" the castle lord was skeptical.
"I need a little help from the city lord," Kevin replied, "and tomorrow when the city lord negotiates, the city lord will send his own personal guard to ambush outside the hotel. If you need to, make some explosions. ”
"Why is that?"
"Scare them first," Kevin replied, "and a lot of people will say what they should and shouldn't say before they die." I did this to create an extreme environment, and with my words, I would definitely be able to find out the real culprit. ”
The city lord nodded, and asked several times if he was confident, and after Kevin repeated the answer, he left satisfied. The old nobleman did not come in person, but Mr. Cuncao knocked on the door and came in.
Kevin was wary and was going to find a reason to push him away. So he yawned first: "A little sleepy!"
Unexpectedly, Cuncao still sat down: "I am now representing the interests of the gangsters, come and ask a few more questions." Even if you are sleepy, you have to finish asking before you go to sleep. ”
Kevin was helpless: "Then ask." ”
Mr. Cuncao was silent for a moment and began to reason: "Suppose you find a bald tattooed brother who is killed by a foreign master, and this foreign master has a task. Then you say...... Is it possible for a country to send only one person to carry out the mission?"
Kevin was silent.
"The docks gang has Robles, Robles' technical prowess has been recognized by you, and since he came, the major gangs here have fought each other and demolished each other. This is obviously the credit of Robles, and from this point of view, Robles is likely to be a foreign master who came to carry out the mission. ”
Although Robles had an alibi on the night of the crime, that was true. But if he still has accomplices, then his alibi is meaningless. And if he is on a mission, then he must have accomplices, or even more than one. ”
Kevin remained silent.
"The deceased did your royal academy before he died, Robles's style of doing things is very similar to yours, and you obviously read through the information, and you came with a mission," Cuncao sighed, "but I still don't want to believe that it's you." Can you explain? at least explain what you took on and what you did?"
Kevin smiled: "I was also assassinated, and my life was hanging by a thread, in fact, I think a famous person like me is no longer suitable for going on a mission." ”
"Really?" Cuncao smiled, "With the current situation in the city, no one should come to assassinate you." Gangsters and sheriffs want you to investigate cases, and only the remaining crumbs don't have this energy. Besides, we decided to go to a makeshift church that night, how could the other party set up an ambush in advance?"
"You want to say...... Am I directing and acting?" Kevin smiled, "The arrow is poisoned, if it weren't for my brother saving me at the wrong time, I would probably be dead." The risk is too great. ”
"If there is contract news, I can give you an early warning. Time, direction, angle, speed, etc., the contract transmission is carried out synchronously. Put the parrot on the sniper's side, the sniper calculates the arrival time of the arrow, opens his mouth to give the order, the parrot transmits, and you can dodge the arrow with a casual turn. It's just that this time, the brother found out in advance, but he took advantage of the situation, and there was no flaw. Cuncao replied.
"And what is the purpose of my self-directing and self-acting?" Kevin asked rhetorically.
"Naturally, it is to clear one's own suspicions, and it is also a warning to other assassins. Your head is indeed valuable outside, and no one will kill you for the time being, which does not mean that there will be no one in the future. And if you want to solve this problem, it is better to send your own people to mention killing yourself. Fail to assassinate other assassins and make them think twice. ”
Kevin was silent for a long time, but still replied, "You have no evidence." ”
Mr. Cuncao had a look of disappointment on his face, and he had to sigh.
Kevin comforted him instead: "Don't worry, I'm not a demon after all." ”
"What are you going to do tomorrow?" asked Cuncao, "you want to lure out the necromancer?"
Kevin was silent again.
"Will anyone die?" asked Cuncao again.
Kevin shook his head.
"Okay," Cuncao got up and walked out, "Then I'll play with you until the end." ”
"Wait a minute," Kevin said, "Gangsters are gangsters after all, and according to Lou Baole's intelligence and my personal observations, after the investigation is completed, there is a high probability that they will attack you." You're going to have to keep a hand!"
Cuncao nodded: "I know." ”
