Six in the morning.
Cangyang city.
The first ray of dawn didn't appear in time.
The night has not yet dispersed.
Yilin several people, the hair tip is full of morning dew, white. From a distance, it looks like a head of frost.
Zhitian dance and Gu Sinan have a corner everywhere to close their eyes and refresh themselves.
Wang Bing was carrying a miniature submachine gun, with several incendiary bombs around his waist. His eyes were full of blood and looked around vigilantly.
His men, the field team, are also trying to cheer up and beware of strange insects that come out of nowhere at any time.
But in fact, since they left the city center and beat those strange insects back, they have not been attacked by insect tide for a long time.
Half an hour ago.
"What about the other dead?"
"I haven't seen it yet, but I think it's about the same."
Gu Tianqing smiled and said, "but the man who manipulates the leech secretly is very smart. He deliberately left leech mucus everywhere on the scene to hide the 'entrance' of the real invasion of the leech army. Moreover, the targets he selected seem to have been carefully selected. The versions of the AI housekeeper in the house are the ones without video surveillance, which is a little interesting."
"In fact, if you really want to hide it, you can't hide it. After all, this simple technique may not be able to deceive even the criminal police who graduated from the special warfare department with certain years of experience. It's just that ordinary people don't know how to deal with it for a while because they haven't seen such a battle."
Gu Tianqing smiled, looked at Yi Lin and said slowly, "Oh? You mean, the other party has expected that he is almost exposed?"
"In this circle, don't underestimate anyone who can survive the trial practice, even if he looks very funny and beaten. By the way, I'm temporarily assuming that 'he' is an apostle." Yilin said to Gu Tianqing what he deeply understood: "I'm more curious about why the man who manipulated the leech to commit murder had to kill 11 people in the same place?"
Gu Tianqing nodded and agreed: "that's right. If I kill one place and change another place, it will reduce the chance of exposure."
"Oh, very experienced."
Yilin looked calm and looked at the Sunny Valley.
Gu Tianqing replied with an elegant smile: "I'm just an example."
"Ha ha."
Yilin smiled but didn't speak, and didn't point out.
"What's next?"
Gu Tianqing asked with a smile.
Although knowing that Gu Tianqing was changing the topic roundly, Yilin was too lazy to say more and walked out of the community.
"After investigation, although we can make it clear that the lovely little leeches are hiding in the sewer. But this range is too large. It is impractical to carry out carpet search. Moreover, if our opponent is really a group of wise leeches, we can't catch them all under the existing conditions."
"So we have to wait."
Yilin nodded and agreed.
you 're right.
Wait.
This is the only way for now.
"Wake up."
Yilin yawned and left a figure behind Gu Tianqing.
Gu Tianqing looked at Yi Lin who was away quickly, suddenly smiled and said to Yi Lin's back, "I don't know if it's my illusion. Now you seem a little impatient. What happened?"
Yilin stepped down.
But he didn't look back.
"This is your illusion. Besides, what does my impatience have to do with you?"
"Yes, it doesn't matter."
……
……
This wait is three days.
In these three days, Molly finally sent a reply.
"Awesome. How did you get this information?"
Molly highly affirmed Yilin's efficiency.
"Hehe, trade secrets."
"Bah." Molly spat, but didn't ask: "I've checked. According to the information, there are seven research institutions holding Xingchen steel except my laboratory. By the way, you are now in cangyang City, aren't you? I don't know if it's a coincidence. One of them specializes in new semiconductor materials, which is not far from cangyang city. I'll send it to you later and you can find a place to receive it."
"I see."
After learning the news, Yilin narrowed his eyes slightly and didn't say much.
Some things are destined not to let Molly know the details too much.
About looking for Star steel, Yilin is not in a hurry.
To be exact, we can't rush.
Although Yu Meng and Zhao Yulong paid more attention to what happened in the scientific research department, they did not focus on a document in area A. but Yilin was not completely sure that the loss of the document would not attract anyone's attention. Therefore, Yilin can only temporarily put all his mind on solving the "leech murder" in cangyang city.
After exploring the place of death of a recent deceased with Gu Tianqing, Yilin has roughly figured out the context of this matter.
There is a man who has the ability to manipulate leeches.
He manipulated leeches for some purpose and killed 11 ordinary people in one month.
The eleven dead had nothing in common except that they were all single and living alone.
In fact, "being single and living alone" is also the common point of most serial homicides without specific targets.
Because this kind of goal is easy to start.
Generally speaking, the killers of this kind of homicide will also be collectively referred to as "abnormal serial killers".
"In various senses, it can really be said to be 'abnormal'."
In these three days.
The mysterious "leech man" seemed to know that there was a big net about to be rolled out in cangyang City, and he had no intention of bubbling at all.
It's like it's completely gone.
Because of the special circumstances of the case, involving "anomalies", the whole case was forcibly concealed.
At present, cangyang city is still a peaceful scene and has not fallen into chaos.
But nothing special happened in these three days.
At least, today, a special person came to the temporary office temporarily set up for Yilin and others in cangyang police station.
……
Yilin looked at the girl who swaggered through the market with a black scabbard long knife hanging at her waist, and had a headache.
"Why are you here?"
Zhitian dance raised her eyelids slightly, her eyes were cold, and slowly opened her mouth in a non salty tone: "can't I come?"
"Oh, no, I didn't mean that." Yilin retreated behind Gu Tianqing without a trace: "I mean, what are you doing if you don't practice your knife well at home?"
Zhitian dance murmured, "my knife has encountered a bottleneck."
"So?"
What is the direct or indirect relationship between the bottleneck and your coming to cangyang city?
Keep practicing!
Maybe you'll break the bottleneck when you practice!
Yilin Leng couldn't connect the two things together.
"So, I want to cut something different."
Zhitian dance takes it for granted.
Yi Lin: "
Wang Bing: "
Yuan Zhiye: "
I'm most afraid of the sudden silence of the air.
The girl is too murderous.
Yilin wondered more.
He once ran into Zhitian dance in the trial practice of Styx junior middle school.
What other monsters have you never cut?
Gu Tianqing clapped her hands and smiled and played a round game: "it's all right. Just right, we are also short of people."
When Zhitian dance pressed the Taidao around her waist, Yilin had slowly made a question mark to Zhao Yulong.
A question mark has contained all the emotions of Yilin.
Zhao Yulong seems to understand.
He laughed in the communication channel, "are you satisfied with the pink assistant I arranged for you? According to my rich experience, absolutely pink, absolutely -"
"Click."
Yilin turned back and snuffed out Zhao Yulong's channel, and then pulled black.
When you are in a good mood, let Zhao Yulong out.
Anyway.
Erin probably understood.
Zhao Yulong didn't know how to deceive Zhitian dance into the special group.
According to the behavior style of the special group, most of them act in groups of two to three according to the ability characteristics of each group member. There are not many wonderful flowers in the group who like to solve cases alone.
Zhitian dance is also an official at present.
In this regard, Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye have long received Zhao Yulong's notice. There was no accident.
On the contrary, Gu Tianqing.
As soon as Wang Bing saw Gu Tianqing's harmless smile, he frantically sounded the alarm.
In his opinion, Tianqing Valley is obviously not a good man.
If it weren't for Yilin's assurance, Gu Tianqing should, might, might be able to help. Wang Bing might just press Gu Tianqing down and make a good inventory.
There is Zhitian dance, the force bearer here, and the field team obviously has no place to play.
Without hesitation, Yilin directly used the field team as an investigation team and sent it out to search for all kinds of intelligence in cangyang city.
The key search areas are some places closely connected with the sewer outlet.
For example, sewage outlets, light industrial plants, and major residential areas.
on the other hand.
Yuan Zhiye is specially responsible for locking the next target that may be killed and narrowing the scope of leeches' murder in advance.
Although Gu Tianqing didn't veto Yilin's decision, he is certainly not qualified, otherwise.
But Gu Tianqing only said:
"Oh, this is a stupid way."
Yes, in Gu Tianqing's opinion, this carpet search is the best way.
Strictly speaking, it's not even a way.
Only under limited conditions, I went crazy to find the murderer.
In the three days when leeches completely hid, Yilin even used high-tech means to try to enter the sewer with a Mini Robot with a camera to see if he could find some traces of leeches passing by. But this method only tried for a while and failed.
Not to mention that the route of underground drainage pipes in a city is too complicated, which is worse than a maze. And the sewer is dark and humid, which can almost wash away the mucosal components and residual secretion left by leeches. Unless thousands of robots are put into the sewer, it will not work at all.
Everything is back to the origin.
With the feedback from the field team and investigation team led by Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye, Yi Lin, who is in charge of the temporary office, did not have much fluctuation on his face, but it is undeniable that he did have bursts of anxiety in his heart.
As Gu Tianqing saw at a glance: he is too impatient.
Yilin thought of the guy's smiling face, couldn't help picking the dead skin on his head and asked himself.
... so obvious?
Admittedly, there are many things that make Yilin impatient.
He doesn't think he should spend too much time on such things.
But at present, the preparation is not enough, and it is not time to completely separate from the specific group.
Compared with Yilin's impatience, Gu Tianqing is strangely leisurely.
He even opened a recently popular game with his mobile phone and played qualifying happily.
"Well, did the hero pretend like this?"
"Ah, it turns out that the mage will be scolded when he wears meat..."
"Forget it, just surrender."
“……”
Gu Tianqing had a good time.
Zhitian dance took a small stool, sat in the corner, took out a flannelette and carefully wiped the blade.
Four hours later.
At night.
Yuan Zhiye hurried in with a heavy expression.
"No! Someone has been killed again! It's a leech man!"
I don't know who named the murderer "leech man". Yuan Zhiye thought the name was strange at first, but he shouted and got used to it.
The three apostles sitting in the temporary office suddenly got up with different expressions.
Yilin and Gu Tianqing looked at each other and said:
"Five days!"
……
The firing signal was quickly transmitted to the other eight warships.
In an instant, the sound of shells loaded from various warships completely broke the silence of the sea area.
Kaka, Kaka, Kaka
Boom, boom, boom!
Countless gun barrels, within the range, spewed terrible fire towards the sunken ship bay at the same time. Wave after wave, round after round of shelling, there was almost no pause, and the dim light in the night fog was completely submerged in the twinkling of an eye.
Into more colorful fireworks!
Boom, boom——
The sea was full of waves and fog, but it was not the normal water fog, but the smoke of gunpowder caused by too much shooting, which was very terrible.
No ship, no one, can withstand this level of fire in this sea.
The caliber of the remaining nine warships is not comparable to the pound weight used by pirates. Just look at the rows of gun barrels protruding from the iron plate, and the muzzle is dark and thick.
Sunken ship Bay is also a well-known place in naval teaching materials.
It is said that the largest naval battle in recent years took place here.
Because after the first World War, pirates did not dare to gather here in large numbers. Even if there were, they were just some unknown pirates. In addition, the desolate fortress in sunken ship Bay is located in the middle of the terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Generally speaking, no navy would choose such a thankless place to earn jobs.
Even if you pass by, you can make a detour directly to save trouble.
Those small shrimp pirates, even if they ignore it, may die at sea one day.
night.
Shipwreck Bay.
Nine warships.
Dense fog and smoke.
The sky was full of gunfire.
All this has formed a magnificent picture in front of him. Gu Tianqing stands in the bow. No one knows what he is thinking at the moment, and his expression is neither happy nor sad.
meanwhile.
In the second cabin.
When Yilin was just about to pick up her skirt, summon nightmares and try [dark night mode] to blend into the shipwreck bay to see if she could get something out of the chaos, Yilin made a stop.
At this time, one of his long legs had stepped out of the ship and was fixed out of the ship.
After hesitating for a moment, Yilin thought of Gu Tianqing's poker face and couldn't help sighing: "forget it, it's too late."
So Yilin took back his legs.
It also gave up the plan to slip into the sunken ship Bay.
He had almost guessed the consequences of the complete disappearance of the sunken ship bay at sea, but he didn't know how the tower would deal with the consequences.
"Is it a bug? I've encountered a lot of bugs recently? Or is this a new customs clearance idea I've never thought of before?"
The "past" in Yilin's words obviously refers to his previous life with a little salty fish.
"Gu Tianqing also found it? No, how could he know that the main task of the pirates is related to the sunken ship Bay? There are ghosts among the pirates?"
However, the idea just flashed in her mind, and Yilin himself felt absurd and couldn't help laughing alone.
The so-called pirates should not have a camp. How can they be called a camp when they fight for interests regardless of the enemy and ourselves?
Now there are two apostles who have never met, most likely playing the roles of "Nicholas Zhao" and "Indiana Jones".
Among these two people, someone secretly united with Gu Tianqing?
Or?
Boom, boom.
There is still crazy shooting outside. It seems endless.
The vibration even reached the cabin, and the weak walls on all sides trembled.
Yilin is still thinking in the dark.
The light of gunfire reflected the gorgeous red light on Elizabeth Lin's white skin, making the woman in the dark look like a flower.
In the cabin.
The silence lasted for several minutes.
Suddenly, Yilin didn't look back and said with a low smile, "you really want to go to the shipwreck Bay?"
I don't know when, the translucent lonely mother Alice appeared behind Yilin with a gloomy expression, which made the atmosphere in the cabin a little more inexplicably scary and treacherous.
Alice floated silently behind Yilin, without touching the ground.
On that pale face, the scars cracked again and bled.
"I said, little sister Alice, it's no use scaring me just by releasing special effects here." Yilin turned his head and said with a smile.
For this visual feast, Erin has long been immune, not to mention the translucent spirit like Alice, who has two ends in his warehouse, which is not rare.
Alice was silent, but she swished the blood back from her face, and the fresh blood scar on her face healed slowly and smoothly.
"Let me guess, your man is up there."
Alice looked down. "I hate him, but we are connected."
"The one who loves deeply and hates deeply? Oh, sorry, I should put it in a more grounded way... Oh, you wish him no good death in this life and never find a lover who loves him more than you?"
Under the ridicule of Yilin, although there was no wine at this time, Alice finally told her story.
"That day, our ship encountered it, and then..."
Then, then there's no then.
Alice seemed to recall the terrible scene, with a ferocious expression and a slight trembling of her spirit.
"He is Alice's fiance. His long brown hair is like the hair of a lion. It's curly and delicate. His eyes are like stars and diamonds. It's dazzling. Oh, his song is like the most luxurious pure gold bell, oh..."
Yilin's expression was strange and interrupted Alice's singing: "don't oh oh oh, my orientation is very normal. You don't have to describe it in such detail. It sounds to me that your ex husband seems to be very rich?"
Alice was interrupted by Yilin. Her eyes blurred and disappeared immediately. She closed her lips: "it doesn't matter. He is a very talented musician."
Yilin said with a smile, "well, the perfect love, and then?"
Alice continued, "we were lucky to survive in the lifeboat. It seemed that it had no interest in us. We drifted on the sea for seven days..."
"No food, no fresh water, I suffer from severe dehydration, the high fever does not subside, and so does he."
"Alice remembered that on the seventh night, there was fog all around. It seemed that someone was singing in the fog."
"He blurted out the names of twenty-three women, including Alice's aunt and grandmother."
Hiss——
Yilin suddenly took a breath.
Alice:
Yilin: "nothing, please continue."
"So Alice asked him the next day why he said the names of those women in his dream. Then we wrestled on the boat with our last strength."
"Finally, I died and he lived. But we were completely integrated."
Alice's understatement made Yilin not react at once.
But after a little thought, I found something wrong.
inosculate as a whole?
"Wait." Irene looked up at Alice's eyes: "you mean... He ate you?"
Alice grinned. Two rows of white teeth twinkled in the fire: "he can't abandon Alice anymore. Alice is very sure."
"Oh." In a few seconds, Yilin calmly accepted the end of the thriller story.
Alice looked confused and forced:
She didn't expect Yilin's reaction to be so calm.
"So, is he in shipwreck Bay?"
Alice laughed, but said another thing: "Before Alice died, she cursed... His soft hair would wither completely. His charming voice would be like a blower. He would rot like a corpse, his skin would be covered with abscesses that would never heal, and no one dared to approach him... Alice cursed him and cursed him with Alice's flesh and blood Live in a painful way. "
"As a price, Alice has also become a ghost." Alice looked intoxicated, closed her eyes and pointed to the direction of the wreck Bay: "Alice can feel it. He's right there..."
Shipwreck Bay?
Is it a coincidence or?
Yilin thought for a moment: "what's the name of your ex boyfriend?"
"Hee hee, Nicholas Zhao! A man connected with Alice's fate."
Yi Lin: "
At the moment of hearing the name, Yilin didn't want anything else. At the moment, his mood was not shocked, let alone accident.
But——
"It turns out that there are more unlucky people than me in this role-playing mode."
After learning the complete thriller version of Alice's honeymoon, Yilin silently observed a few seconds of silence for the martyr who played "Nicholas Zhao".
Yilin finally decided not to dive into the shipwreck bay for Alice in this changing environment.
If you guess correctly, Alice must have hidden an important hidden plot branch task. Once completed, it is likely to greatly improve the final task evaluation.
Just like the "touchstone treasure map".
Yilin really doesn't have so much energy and manpower to dig more branch plots and tasks.
Although there are some regrets, there are gains and losses. Under the operation of Gu Tianqing, the destruction of sunken ship Bay is now a foregone conclusion.
I don't know whose head Nicholas Zhao died in this round of gunfire.
When Alice finished the story, she saw that Yilin was completely unmoved and had no idea of landing in the shipwreck Bay. The corner of her mouth turned and disappeared from Yilin's head.
The gunfire outside the ship gradually subsided.
On the sea, the smoke of gunpowder filled the air, and Yilin put a touch on his face, which was full of residual gunpowder smell, which was very pungent.
It can be imagined how much firepower the nine warships put into destroying the sunken ship Bay.
Suddenly.
Yilin lowered his head.
After the gunfire subsided, the prompt that had been waiting for a long time did not appear late and appeared in front of Yilin on time.
"Sure enough." Yilin's face was expressionless.
The paint of the mask was pasted into a man with a big face by the rain. When he smelled the speech, he was stagnant.
But a moment later he laughed disdainfully.
Nightmares?
Hide?
Who are you fooling?
Who told you that this low-level means of bluff can work for the senior apostles?
Of course, Yilin is not bluffing.
He was watching nightmares' headlights flicker. Why didn't he know the nature of nightmares' waves?
If you don't press it, it will turn into a Cybertron in the blink of an eye, okay?
When everyone thinks that nightmares are just an illegally modified motorcycle, it is undoubtedly a very good way to hide your cards by letting it stay still for a while.
You can even put your cards under each other's eyes. Why not?
When Yilin said these words, everyone changed his face except Mo Rendi.
Is this just a dessert?
Wait a minute. Where do you serve dessert before dinner?
And right now.
Under the control of Zhao Yulong, the UAV approached the insect tower and wanted to explore more information.
But suddenly.
The creeping insects suddenly split, revealing a vertical crack about ten meters long, in which there was a faint scarlet light.
At the moment, staring at the crack gives people the feeling that it is like a slowly opened eye.
Shua!
Suddenly.
"Zizizi -"
On the picture from the UAV, there was only a messy remnant.
It's gone.
