Chapter 87: Cases
"Wait a minute..."
Shang Luo didn't continue to talk to Apollonia until he came out to wash his hands.
"I have a question β it's nice that you can get an optical field of view. But can you show me what you're seeing? β
"Yes. Do you still remember the white mirrors on those armors in the Jinyi Guard's warehouse? You can see through that mirror. Because it is an image that does not exist in the world, if you want to see it with the naked eye, you can use it indirectly. But the mirror is too rough to see. It's probably similar to the effect of watching a flashbang, but you can only see a white patch. Jin Yiwei should have more advanced equipment there, and you should be able to use it when you reach the Qi training period. β
Shang Luo really wanted to take a look. It would be nice if you could switch between the two perspectives β after all, what you can't see but is actually there is always something scary. Because fear comes from the unknown, Charizard in the garage and elephant in the room can keep people awake.
...
By the time I got back to the cafeteria, it was almost past lunchtime. The three female classmates who presented the "tribute" also left here, but Qi Yuan was still sitting in place, holding a white sign in his hand.
"You're back, is Feixin fun?"
"You have one too? Are you a qi practitioner? β
"It's so easy to be a qi practitioner. We do have one in the convoy, and I'm nowhere near him. It's not that you have to get a qi practitioner to use these brands, I have some family heirloom spiritual roots on my body, although they are relatively thin. This brand is also the leftover brand used by my father. The family is even with each other, and Daozu is allowed. But I can only barely use it, because although I can operate it, I can't see the picture, so I can only 'type blindly'. Carrying it is just convenient for my dad to send me a voice message at any time. You just received a message from an elder, right? β
"What's the message?"
"Brother Jack the Ripper, what other information can there be." As she spoke, she put the sign back into the little ladybug purse.
β???β
Shang Luo hurriedly sat back: "So what is the matter?" β
His heart lifted again, and sure enough, this morning's omen was not so simple.
"My dad sent a voice message saying that Brother Jie the Ripper has started to commit crimes in Yujing. A Roman tourist was killed, and when he was killed, he was disemboweling in an alley. There was also his camera slave next to him, tsk, the cameras were all broken. β
She stopped, and he saw that Shang Luo's expression was getting more and more wrong.
"What, what do you know?"
"I'm like... I seem to have seen that victim. Wait a minute. He took a sip of rice, swallowed the radish soup with the radish inside, and then opened his mobile phone and sent a letter to Lu Huaiyang to confirm.
In less than 5 seconds, Lu Huaiyang sent a reply:
"Go out and turn left, go to the public phone number 21-2918 to pick up my call, it starts ringing in 10 seconds, as soon as possible." This process gives Shangluo a sense of BB machine. However, considering that other people need to expend energy when using the Feixin brand, it is better to use a public phone to communicate. For Lu Huaiyang, now his energy may also need to be focused on the case.
"Squad leader, please wait a little longer, I'll come back to eat."
With that, he strode out the door. When I went out, the bell rang in the public phone booth next to the door.
Shang Luo entered the door, closed the door, picked up the phone and did it in one go:
"Hey, is it Lu Qianhu?"
"Hmm." Lu Huaiyang, who was on the other side of the phone, replied, "Because there is a lot to talk about, it is too slow to send flying letters, so use the phone - do you know anything about the Ripper case?" I've been busy with this all morning. β
"I seem to know. Is that person a photographer? Dressed in the toga robes of the Romans. Next to him was a photographic slave and a drink slave carrying an incubator with delicious grape juice. β
Lu Huaiyang's voice suddenly raised: "Wait! Have you ever taken a picture with him! β
"yes, I did."
"Isn't it in... At the entrance of Confucius Temple subway station!! β
"yes, what's the problem?"
There was silence on the other end of the line.
"Shang Luo, that photo is the focus of our investigation now, let me describe that photo to you: half of the picture is as if it has been blown up by a flashbang, and you can't see anything. A figure with a spear could be faintly seen in the light, and the light burst from the figure. Only the edges of the frame were showing normally, and I just recognized it as the subway station in front of my house. Now we think that light and shadow are seriously suspected of committing a crime - didn't we expect it to be you? I'll do a routine check, where are you at four o'clock this morning? β
"I'm in Yuxi Palace." Shang Luo replied truthfully.
"Huh? What are you doing in the middle of the night at Yuxi Palace? Does Bodhi Ancestor want to teach you somersault clouds? β
"No, it's going to alchemy." Shang Luo didn't say that he was specifically going to process radishes for people like Lu Liang who failed to do so. He wasn't going to say anything until it worked out. He didn't want to give hope and then let it be shattered, that would be cruel.
"Sure enough... His Majesty the Son of Heaven also routinely goes to the Danfang at that time every day. I won't ask what it is, just rule you out. Tsk, but things are more troublesome. That picture is now the only clue, and if that picture is you, the clue is broken. Do you have any other clues to offer? β
"Wait a minute."
He put down the phone and asked Apollonia.
[Wait for me to check, I have the information of the Romans here... It was found that the Roman was named Akcius, a native of Constantinople and a member of the Roman Senate. According to the promotion system of the Roman senators, he was in the first rank of 'treasurer'. However, this does not mean that he really has financial management related work to be delegated, just called this name. He is 35 years old this year, and if nothing else, he will enter the promotion sequence of the second level of 'municipal officer' next year. Tsk, that's why I told them a long time ago that these Romans should be locked in the TheodΓ³sius Wall and not let them run around. Now another one has died. γ
Shang Luo relayed the relevant information to Lu Huaiyang. Include name and identity.
"Thank you." Lu Huaiyang replied on the phone, "You have helped a lot." Because the death was so tragic that it was difficult for us to identify ourselves for a while. It's prime time to solve the case, and we'll call Constantinople right away to check the files. Hang up first... By the way, be careful yourself, rippers are dangerous. Call me immediately if there is danger, and you can always trust us. β
"Yes."
There was a busy "beep" on the other end of the phone. Nanjin is really busy today, because it seems to be in the realm of "superpower crimes".
"Well, even the safest place isn't very peaceful... Anyway, it doesn't have much to do with me. Well, it doesn't matter much. It's just that Roman, who is actually quite good... He really printed the picture out and prepared it for me to see. The juice is also very tasty and is a good juice. β
[This guy is really, very unlucky. γ
"Bad luck indeed." Shang Luo nodded, "Forget it, there is a relationship no matter how you say it." When you have time, go to Jinyiwei to have a look, maybe you can help. β
