Chapter 500

As Ann Yizhi guessed, after losing Fielding, the backer of the police station, Ann Yizhi's position became subtle.

Originally, they were invited by fielding to help, but this matter was self-made and tacitly approved by the Bureau.

But acquiescence means that they can't get on the table. In addition, some police may even feel that asking for foreign aid is an insult to them.

The local police who are born and raised here can't make it. They still need to ask others to help. Are you all white-collar workers?

That's almost what I mean.

During the conversation with an Yizhi just now, Thomson's answer was smooth and watertight. He didn't say anything about the case, but you can't find anything wrong with him.

There is only one meaning revealed inside and outside.

This is our job. You outsiders should stay cool.

However, although his attitude is expected and reasonable, there are still great problems.

The players were invited by fielding as foreign aid. Although others didn't know it, they were more or less acquiesced. After all, James went to pick them up with great fanfare. There was no cover up, and no one raised any objection to it. And immediately after Fielding's death, a bridge was torn down.

Is it because they have found some conclusive evidence and want to take credit for themselves, or

The police themselves have some problems?

The situation is becoming more and more complicated. The more an refers to it, the more he thinks about it, the more he feels confused. In this case, he will not get any answer if he tries to think about it. It's better to re manage it and check it line by line.

The three men found a secluded place outside the blockade line. An pointed and asked:

"Is there any clue in the car?"

Nodding his lush grass on the plains, he described the side of the car to the safety of the car, and finally handed the beeper.

"It can be predicted that fielding must have mastered something, otherwise he will not be killed, and the person who started it is exactly the same as the person who dumped the body on the side of the sewage pipe."

This can be seen from the cause of death. The two are almost identical. The difference is that the woman's body was dumped in the sewage pipe after she died in other places.

"Our next step is to investigate the cause of Fielding's death, or continue to investigate the disappearance?"

An Yizhi fiddled with the BP machine and said:

"Now we have some clues and the direction of investigation. I guess the system wants us to investigate separately, but the risk is relatively high. In order to be safe, we still focus on collecting intelligence."

"Direction? What investigation direction?"

The brave man is lush and the lush grass on the plains must be explained.

"Originally, there was no clue about the missing case. The discovery of the two bodies may be an important clue. Fielding got this clue, so he killed himself. Our investigation direction is' why did he die '. As long as we investigate this point clearly, we can catch the prisoner of the missing case, at least one of the three."

"Yes, and we have other things to investigate, but let it go first. I need a public telephone."

The old-fashioned BP machine can only display numbers. An Yizhi found a string of telephone numbers on the BP machine belonging to Fielding, which should be the last message he received.

Although there was no mobile phone in this era, at least the public telephone facilities were good. The three easily found a public telephone booth nearby. After inserting a coin, an Yizhi dialed according to the number on the BP machine.

The beep sounded several times. Ann pointed to the sound of the microphone being picked up, accompanied by a very harsh noise, which sounded a bit like a chainsaw.

"Hello?"

A man's voice came from the microphone. He didn't seem to be very old, about 30 ~ 40 years old.

"I, Qin Shihuang, make money!"

"Ah?"

Through the phone, you can imagine the other party's face.

"The earth vibrates high and vigorous, and the streams and mountains are beautiful through the ages."

"What do you mean? Who are you?"

In fact, Ann doesn't know what he's talking about. He's just talking nonsense.

This call is probably related to Fielding's death. He'd better not expose his identity. Moreover, if he pretends to be a policeman, the other party is likely to hang up directly. He just wants to roughly judge the other party's basic information through the voice at the other end of the phone. Anyway, there is no caller ID in this era, and it doesn't matter to make a harassing call.

“tobeornottobe。”

"Who called?"

"I don't know. It's a guy talking about a mess."

Another man's voice came from the phone, and an Yizhi heard a slight noise. It was the voice of an ambulance.

Then the phone was hung up.

Walking out of the phone booth, an Yi pointed to the voice she had just heard on the phone and said to her two companions:

"The other party is probably a logging farm in the suburbs. I heard the sound of a chainsaw."

From the lush grass on the plains,

"But this small town is famous for its timber business. There are at least ten or twenty logging farms. Should we check them one by one?"

"Let's do a carpet search. Stupid methods sometimes work."

"No, brave, you can't do it. It's easy to scare the snake. At worst, we will be in danger."

"Brother an, just now you seem to be saying that I'm stupid..."

"That's your illusion."

The brave are invincible: "

If there are no more clues, it is indeed the only feasible way to check one by one. However, the system will not arrange this because it takes too much time.

The process of a copy is usually only 4 ~ 6 hours (real time), which will not be longer. When converted to the game, that is, about 24 hours. They have spent more than six hours since they entered the copy. The remaining time is certainly not enough to check slowly. The system will not arrange the plot like this, so there must be a way to lock each other's position as soon as possible.

"First, we need a map."

Ann looked around. Fielding's house was not too far from the bar where the three people were invited to drink. He could see the sign of the bar from here.

On the street opposite the bar, he found a newspaper booth and hoped there were maps for sale.

The operator of the newsstand is a couple over half a hundred years old. The husband looks at the passers-by at the sales outlet, and the wife arranges something inside.

"Is there a map?"

"Yes, 50 cents."

The price seems a little high, but it's the money in the game anyway. It doesn't hurt to spend it casually.

An Yi fingered out a bill and handed it over. She picked up a copy of today's newspaper.

The system is becoming more and more disgusting. Generally speaking, if the things in the newspaper are not important clues, they will not be translated by the system. This time, the whole newspaper has translations, even the big star's lace news. If there are really any clues, they can only be distinguished by the players themselves.

The headline of the newspaper really reported the two bodies found yesterday, and the article also hyped the incompetence of the police and so on.

"It's terrible."

The host of the newsstand said:

"Outsiders, I advise you to leave as soon as possible if there is nothing important."

"How do you know we are outsiders?"

The brave invincible asked curiously.

"Stupid, we just bought a map. Have you forgotten?"

What is lush grass on the plains? If you are a local, what map do you need?

"It's just one thing. You're strangers. I knew you weren't local."

The boss of the newsstand took out a pipe, stuffed it with cut tobacco and said proudly:

"I've been here for more than 20 years. I know everyone."

"My detective, don't show off. Did you forget that smoking almost caused a fire last time?"

Said the hostess in the newsstand.

"Cough! It was just an accident!"

An Yizhi didn't care about the show of love between them, but noticed something else.

"You said you've been here for twenty years. Did you see fielding yesterday? He lives in the front."

"Of course, fielding is my old man. Unfortunately, I just heard that he died."

The newsstand owner said regretfully, and then vigilantly said:

"Why are you asking?"

"In fact, we are the police."

The lush grass on the plains and the brave man matched the police officer's card, and Ann continued.

"Fielding's death is strange. We are investigating it."

"Fu ~" spit out the cigarette ring, and the newsstand owner said:

"Let me see... Well... Yesterday I saw fielding come to the bar at noon. By the way, you also went to the bar."

Ann nodded. It happened that they got off the train and came to the bar to meet Fielding.

"What happened later? Did he pass here again?"

"Once, when we were closing, I saw his car parked outside the bar and he hurried into the bar."

The three players looked at each other. This may be the last time fielding was seen alive.

"What time is that?"

"Well... Six thirty in the afternoon. We closed a little late yesterday. It should be that time."

As for when fielding came out of the bar, the newsstand owner didn't know, because he had already gone home at that time. It's not peaceful recently.

It seems that you need to ask the bar owner about Fielding's going to the bar.

Ann pointed to this and saw James coming from the other side of the street.

"So you're here. It's easy for me to find."

"What?"

"I was kicked out of the action team."

James looked angry.

It turned out that with Fielding's death, James, who had been following up the disappearance case, was kicked out of charge of the case by other police officers. No wonder he looked unhappy.

"Just right, I have something I want you to investigate."

"But I have..."

"Don't you want to avenge fielding?"

James was stunned and finally nodded.

It's also helpless for NPC to investigate. It's estimated that the arrangement of the system is to divide players and investigate them respectively. However, in that case, it's too dangerous. In the idea of dead Taoist friends and poor Taoist friends, let James take over that part.

"I want you to investigate the surrounding gas stations to see if anyone often buys oil from gasoline barrels."

"Well, why?"

"Since you can't find the killer's Pontiac car, you might as well start from the side. There is no Pontiac car registered in this city. The killer can't drive directly to the gas station to refuel. That's too conspicuous, which will greatly increase the possibility of exposure. However, the car needs refuelling to start, so the killer must be a person who often buys oil in oil barrels."

"You're right. Why didn't I think of it?"

James looked at Ann and said a lot, suddenly realized.

An Yizhi didn't say a word.

In this era, there are really many people who buy oil from gasoline barrels. For example, lawn mowers need oil, so I'm afraid James will find a lot of people. As for the boring work of investigation one by one

Anyway, players must not be interested in doing that.

James seemed very excited. It was estimated that he had begun to imagine the scene of a new policeman who had just left the police academy and had solved a shocking case.

"But before you're busy investigating the gas station, there's something else I need your help."

"What's up?"

Ann took out the key fielding gave him yesterday and shook it:

"We need to go to Fielding's office as soon as possible."
