Chapter 438 "Destruction, Betrayal, Fall"
have to say.
You get what you pay for, which is an ironclad truth most of the time.
There are naturally reasons why advanced home AI housekeepers are expensive.
The video is high-definition without code, and even the sound is high-definition and noise-free.
When countless leeches covered the camera, the few people watching the video could even clearly recognize the wriggling mouthparts of the leeches.
As for the sound...
Before this, even the well-informed Yi Lin had never heard such a high-definition sound of countless leeches gathering together.
The leeches have zero-distance contact with the camera.
If you insist on adding a sense of substitution, you can give an example.
The voice in the video, to put it mildly, is like having a flexible tongue, gently twirling and twiddling against the ear, extremely provocative.
But to be more realistic, it's like those leeches that got into the ears, rubbed against the ear temples, and punched holes wantonly.
When the shrill scream of the twelfth deceased stopped abruptly, the sound of the leech wriggling was even more terrifyingly clear, making Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye cover their ears involuntarily.
This feeling is too tortured.
Here comes the sense of substitution.
"What's that sound?"
Yi Lin frowned suddenly and asked.
Yi Lin's words made Yuan Zhiye and Wang Bing stunned at the same time.
Gu Tianqing's eyes lit up slightly.
Oda Mai, who kept her eyes closed and held a long sword like a sculpture, suddenly opened her eyes and said, "There is someone."
people?
There are people, but aren’t they already gone?
Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye were even more confused after hearing Oda Mai's words.
But they dare not believe it.
After all, apart from the two of them, Yi Lin, Oda Mai, and Gu Tianqing are all serious apostles.
Maybe "people like them" have exceptionally good hearing?
"Video, go back about ten seconds."
Yi Lin frowned and said.
Seeing that Yi Lin didn't mean to be joking, the astonishment on Yuan Zhiye's face also quickly put away, showing professional quality, immediately dragging the progress bar, and rewinding the video a little.
"slower."
"right here."
Yuan Zhiye listened attentively.
After a while, his expression became solemn: "It seems that after the deceased is gone, amidst the sound of leeches wriggling, it really seems like someone is talking."
Wang Bing scratched his head: "Could it be that he didn't die completely?"
When this was said, even Wang Bing himself did not believe it.
Before the leeches covered the camera, they had already seen that the poor deceased was sucked up by countless leeches, and the exposed wrist quickly shrank at a terrifying speed visible to the naked eye, and was squeezed dry in a blink of an eye. up. It's hard to imagine that under such circumstances, the deceased could return to the light and utter a last word.
Yuan Zhiye opened the audio processing software.
Although Yuan Zhiye is not as professional as Ou Lele.
But as a professional member of the investigation team, techniques such as P-mapping and sound modification can be said to be at hand.
With the feeling of numbness in his scalp, he repeatedly lowered the ecstasy sound effect of countless leeches wriggling.
Gradually, an indistinct voice that seemed to be chewing something was presented in front of Yi Lin and the others after processing.
"Not enough...fuzzy..."
"!"
...
not enough.
What is not enough?
Unbelievable, this is the last words of the deceased.
Can't get sucked enough?
Not so outrageous.
"Wait a minute, I'll go to the encyclopedia and look up the physiological structure of leeches..."
Yuan Zhiye's eyes widened.
The sound he made himself.
But the one who didn't believe it was him.
"There's no need to look it up." Gu Tianqing smiled: "No matter what, the physiological structure of a normal leech is absolutely impossible to simulate human language."
"I probably understand."
Yi Lin nodded, and after uttering an exclamation point, he quickly calmed down and figured out the joints involved.
"you also?"
"Um."
"As expected of you."
"..."
Wang Bing quietly pulled Yuan Zhiye aside, who was still checking encyclopedias on the Internet, and whispered, "What kind of riddles are they playing?"
"The devil knows."
Yuan Zhiye looked at Yi Lin and Gu Tianqing's face of "seeing the truth", and couldn't help but whispered in Wang Bing's ear in a solemn and even smaller voice: "But in this way, I finally understand why Brother Zhao sent him over."
"Why?"
"Have you ever heard a saying: Only a pervert can deal with a pervert."
"..."
...
When Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye were whispering.
Yi Lin and Gu Tianqing also looked at each other and walked aside.
"Although most of the process can be imagined, there is still a critical step left to solve this matter."
Erin frowned.
Gu Tianqing smiled: "But at the very least, with the current clues, we can narrow down the scope of the target as much as possible."
"I never asked you..."
Yi Lin turned her gaze to Gu Tianqing: "Why on earth are you looking for a 'blood-sucking thing'? According to your personality, if you can't get the benefits you want in this matter, you should have run away long ago? That is to say, you Already knew 'it' was your goal?"
"Yo," Gu Tianqing pretended to be sad, and covered her eyes: "I'm so sad, don't tell me I'm such an untrustworthy person in your heart? A comrade in arms of the terrible demon."
Gu Tianqing's tone also became weird.
"Oh, I can't afford this comrade in arms." Yi Lin sneered.
Gu Tianqing shrugged, helplessly put away the deliberately sad face, and smiled lightly: "Actually, you may not believe it, I have a sister who suffers from a rare disease. Everything I do is actually to make my poor sister live longer."
"Sister out of nothing? Do you think I will believe it?" Yi Lin asked with a calm expression.
"Sometimes, the more ridiculous you find it, the more simple the truth is. Isn't it?" Gu Tianqing's expression remained unchanged, but she stopped fooling around on this matter and changed the subject: "No matter what my reason is, it's the most simple truth. At least, I'm on the same side as you for now. You wouldn't turn down a wise spiritual ally, would you?"
Gu Tianqing looked at Yi Lin with a smile, and seeing that the other party still didn't believe her, she added: "In the circle, no one would want to offend the special group."
Yi Lin believed this sentence.
Barely believe it.
Although Gu Tianqing didn't say a word of truth.
But it seems that for now, Gu Tianqing can still play the role of a "good assistant".
From the corner of her eyes, Yi Lin accidentally landed on Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye who were standing beside them.
Why do they have weird eyes.
Forget it, no matter that much.
Yi Lin has no time to pay attention.
"Tonight, the leech man is obviously in a hurry."
Gu Tianqing added with a smile, "I'm starving."
"All the deceased have only one thing in common. They live alone and are single. This seemingly insignificant commonality is enough to reveal the identity of the leech man."
Gu Tianqing said: "The police."
Yi Lin: "Hospital staff."
Gu Tianqing: "The delivery man."
Yi Lin: "The staff of the Marriage Registration Office."
Gu Tianqing glanced at Yi Lin with a smile: "Oh? I didn't think about it."
The two of them said one sentence, quickly narrowing down the possible range of the leeches.
Next, it is a headache process.
After narrowing down the range of possible occupations of the leech man, cross-comparison of the data was conducted to see if there were any persons who were connected with the previous twelve deceased persons.
For example, a case handled by a certain policeman.
Another example is patients who are treated by the same hospital or even the same doctor.
Or the starting point of a delivery by the same deliveryman.
Leave mating and courtship information at the same marriage registry.
Data intersections like this.
After listening to Yi Lin's explanation, Yuan Zhiye suddenly realized, and said what the hell.
Never expected that this case would be solved so easily.
Subsequent cross-comparison of data will be handed over to Yuan Zhiye.
In fact, for Yi Lin, there is another way to kill one thousand enemies and self-damage eight hundred, which can force out all the leeches in the sewer.
Even though at the end of the surveillance video, the leech spoke human words, it was no longer like a normal leech.
But judging from the fact that the leech people almost always choose to attack after nightfall, even the outrageous leech army seems to have retained some of the leech's habits.
The livable temperature of leeches is about 10-40 degrees Celsius. If Yi Lin can build a large number of small props with "heating skills" in the form of a drop-type operation regardless of the cost, they will be stuffed into every section of the sewer in the whole city. At high temperatures, it is very likely that the leech army can be forced out.
It's just that the cost of the "crystal" is too huge. This is a city's sewer pipe, and just this one action can almost exhaust all of Yi Lin's crystal stock, and the gain outweighs the loss.
Most likely not enough.
Therefore, when Yi Lin thought of this method, she quickly abandoned this idea.
There is another, simpler method...it is very likely that the whole city will be shocked...
"so troublesome."
pity.
The dead otaku seems to have the habit of cleaning the memory of the AI housekeeper regularly.
During the period of time before the death of the deceased, there were no special scenes recorded, which made Yi Lin quite a pity.
During the whole incident, Yi Lin actually still had a few doubts, which she hadn't figured out yet.
no way.
In fact, being able to pinpoint the occupational scope of the Leechman from these fragmented clues has already used most of the brainpower of the two spiritual apostles. Others may not be able to draw so many clues in such a short period of time.
Yuan Zhiye encountered some difficulties in his work.
Although data cross-comparison is not too complicated work. But that's just too much work.
...
The night is as cool as water.
Over Cangyang City, there was a layer of faint mist.
"looks like it's going to rain."
Gu Tianqing maintained that weak smile on his face, looking at the sky.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Gu Tianqing pulled out a card.
After the card was crushed, a pair of tarot cards appeared in Gu Tianqing's hand.
After activating the spirit weapon, a translucent body covered in scarlet and blood was floating in front of Gu Tianqing without a sound.
Gu Tianqing smiled softly, gently rubbing and kneading the back of the tarot card as if stroking the buttocks of a lover.
"Freya, your skin is really non-greasy."
While laughing, in the dark, Gu Tianqing skillfully performed a divination.
After the divination, his complexion turned pale.
Gu Tianqing stared at the divination results of the Tarot cards, her smile froze suddenly.
The one in the center of the three tarot cards is impressively the pattern of the "sword" facing forward.
mean……
"Total destruction".
As for the other two cards...
"Fall and...betrayal?"
...
...
at the same time.
capital.
In front of a solemn, low-key building.
A military armored vehicle parked in front of the building, and a group of dignitaries with serious expressions and formal attire walked out of the vehicle one after another and climbed up the stairs.
If someone looks down here from a high position, they will find that the crowd that keeps gathering towards that building seems to be divided into small groups.
Most of these small groups are in the formation of many stars and the moon, probably a group of people surrounded by one of the important figures.
in it.
Some old men were wearing navy blue ancient robes.
There was a handsome middle-aged man with squinting eyes, wearing a neat suit, and beside him, a beautiful woman in a red cheongsam happily followed.
There was an old man with a long sword on his back, wearing a gorgeous yellow robe, an ancient crown on his head, and his hands behind his back, covering a distance of several meters in one step. On his square face, there was a smile that was calm and majestic, like an emperor Going out on tour, people can't help but feel surrendered.
There is an old man with rough facial features and a white beard in a fur coat. He looks a bit sloppy, but in his steps, he has a confidence and arrogance that others cannot imitate.
"It's still comfortable to take a helicopter."
Zhao Yulong jumped out of the helicopter gunship, also wearing a shiny back, wearing a suit and leather shoes, and appeared formally.
soon.
Zhao Yulong spotted Yu Meng's back from the crowd, and he silently sent a series of private chats to Yu Meng in the communication channel.
Yu Meng followed behind an old man. After the death brand in her private place vibrated, she turned her head slightly, looked at Zhao Yulong in the distance, stared slightly, and nodded indistinctly.
"Deputy Team Leader Zhao."
Zhu Tianzong, who was following behind the old man in a navy blue ancient robe, whispered to Zhao Yulong from a distance, which was regarded as a greeting.
Zhao Yulong quickly walked to Zhu Tianzong's side.
"Hey, I didn't expect that your family would bring you to such an occasion."
"Um."
Zhu Tianzong sullenly, not used to smiling, forced out an ugly smile.
Seeing Zhao Yulong approaching the team, the old man in a navy blue ancient costume slowed down and smiled slightly at Zhao Yulong: "Where's your old man?"
"Cough cough cough."
Zhao Yulong was almost choked to death by a mouthful of saliva.
I guess the only ones who dare to call his father an old immortal are only a few old immortals of your generation, right?
certainly.
Zhao Yulong did not dare to say this sentence.
He bowed his hands respectfully to the old man in the navy blue robe, performed the meeting etiquette of an ancient family, put away his cynical smile, and said seriously: "My father will be there soon."
"Where's Mr. Mo?"
Zhao Yulong knew that the other party was asking about Mo Rendi.
After a moment of silence.
Zhao Yulong shook his head: "He, the team leader, is not feeling well. This time, I represent the special team, not the Zhao family."
When he said this, Zhao Yulong couldn't help but flashed the identity of the old man in his mind.
Emperor Zhu Chong.
The head of the five major families in the Z5 Council, the real talker of the Zhu family.
It is said that Emperor Zhu Chong did not have this name when he was young.
I don't know when, everyone called him Zhu Chongdi.
The name on the ID card was also changed to "Zhu Chongdi".
The deep meaning in the name is self-evident.
The Li family, the mayor of Haiting City, Li Erpang's father, Li Kai.
Li Shimin's Li is happy to drive.
Zhu family, Emperor Zhu Chong.
The Yu family, Yu Meng's father, Yu Liexin.
Ying's, Ying Xia.
The Zhao family, that is, Zhao Yulong's father, Zhao Taiqian.
"Everything that should come has come."
After a few simple conversations at the door, after Zhu Chongdi led Zhu Tianzong into the building, Zhao Yulong focused his eyes slightly, and slowly straightened his slightly crooked tie, saying something to himself.
"I shouldn't have come..."
That night,
The Z5 Council composed of ancient imperial families,
gathered here.
Co-discussion, world affairs.
...
...
Yi Lin didn't know that a major event that would completely affect the world structure would happen in the capital thousands of miles away.
He was still trapped in Cangyang City, with a young girl and an old liar, struggling to handle the job that Zhao Yulong forced upon him.
Yi Lin counted with her fingers.
A little sad and impatient.
"It's been half a month since the last trial. I didn't expect to be delayed by this incident."
Yi Lin was even thinking about whether to take the risk of being suspected by Zhao Yulong, go to the location of the research institute that Molly sent, and personally experience other star steel, whether it will react with his mixed blood.
But speaking up.
Yi Lin didn't hold out much hope for this matter.
Just try it out.
Yi Lin doesn't like uncertain factors in her body.
Just like the "resentment" at the beginning, and the "Dionysian factor" that appeared in the body after being injected by Joker inexplicably, it made Yi Lin distressed for a long time.
But Star Steel is different.
In this world, it is estimated that only Yi Lin knows the true face of Xingchen Steel.
What kind of metal is this?
It was clearly the remains of an unknown creature.
This remains is now divided into many parts, and it falls into the hands of those experts. After all kinds of experiments, it is unknown how much will be left.
Just like the one in Molly's hand, it was forged into a knife and finally entered into Yi Lin's blood.
——Unfortunately, I haven't been able to savor the taste yet.
at this moment.
Yi Lin, who was resting alone in the hotel and waiting for the results of Yuan Zhiye's data analysis, was suddenly awakened by a phone ringing like a reminder.
"Leader, leader, leader! It's not good! It's not good! It's not good!"
Yuan Zhiye stammered the first three words, and without saying what he said, he first reported a series of funeral reports.
The moment Yi Lin answered the phone, she was slightly stunned.
Then he frowned, half guessing, half reasoning, and said the second half of what Yuan Zhiye hadn't said in a hurry.
"Another person died?"
...
...
In Cangyang City, another deceased person was found in the outskirts of the city, forty kilometers away from the residence of the previous deceased.
The police have completely cordoned off the place.
This is a small three-story bungalow.
In the outskirts of third-tier cities, the location is remote, and this kind of low-rise bungalow is not uncommon.
After all, it is different from international metropolises such as the capital and Haiting City, where every inch of land is expensive.
"The deceased was 40 years old. There was no accident. He still lived alone, but he was not single." After arriving at the scene, Yuan Zhiye skillfully drove away Director Liao Jianbai of Cangyang City, and once again took over the "serial murder case of the leech army".
Speaking of which, Yuan Zhiye was a little worried.
If it goes on like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to suppress this matter?
More and more people died.
While explaining to Yi Lin the information he received from the Cangyang City Police Station in the shortest possible time, Yuan Zhiye glanced at Yi Lin quietly.
Why doesn't he seem to be worried?
"Not single?"
As before, Yi Lin possessed herself to quickly inspect the corpse. Gu Tianqing also turned into a hard-working bee, wandering around the scene, investigating the traces left by the leeches, with a clear division of labor.
"Well, not single. The information shows that the deceased was married. Well, his wife is the middle-aged woman who was smiling happily at the door just now."
Yi Lin paused when she checked the corpse, and said in surprise, "You're smiling?"
"Uh..." Yuan Zhiye continued with a strange expression on his face, "The deceased had a habit of drinking heavily during his lifetime, and even after he was drunk, he left several records of his wife's domestic violence on the file. The woman at the door also It was his wife, because she couldn't take it anymore, she separated from the deceased long ago and lived in the center of Cangyang City."
"The reason why I laughed so happily is because not long ago, the two of them had a heated argument over the distribution of property in the divorce. Now... ahem."
Yuan Zhiye didn't say any more after all, after all, the deceased was right in front of him.
It's too ugly to say, and something is wrong.
It's not just a joke to die.
Due to severe dehydration, the mummy's eyeballs have been sucked dry, leaving only a dark hole, which looks very scary, typical of not closing its eyes.
Yi Lin understood in seconds.
Outside the door, the wife of the deceased was hammering the ground frantically, crying and laughing while hammering.
"Hahaha... Dead! Hahaha! Dead! That bastard is finally dead! Good death!"
No wonder he was smiling so happily.
see.
Yuan Zhiye and Wang Bing said in unison: "Oh, marriage."
Just when Yi Lin understood the case as quickly as possible, and Oda Mai was playing with a knife with her eyes closed.
It only took Gu Tianqing two or three minutes to complete the work of surveying the scene.
That proficient movement and speed made Yi Lin very suspicious of Gu Tianqing's real job...whether she stepped on the spot before committing a professional murder.
"What did you find?"
Gu Tianqing had already changed another pair of gloves. With a slight smile, he showed the dried and solidified mucus of leeches between his fingers to the fine powder in front of several people. Judging from the dryness of the body fluids, this guy's death time should be earlier than the last one."
Yuan Zhiye nodded: "I also found out. But because of the special method of death of the corpse, ordinary forensic doctors use ordinary knowledge to judge the time of death, and there will be some errors. But judging from the traces at the scene, this is actually the twelfth dead. And the one we visited a few hours ago was actually the thirteenth."
Yi Lin nodded, her eyes flickered slightly, and she looked at Gu Tianqing: "Did you find out?"
Gu Tianqing smiled and said: "A discovery is a discovery. But the inconsistency is based on the premise that the murderer is a 'human'. If the murderer is not a human, it is not surprising."
Wang Bing really couldn't stand the two elders playing riddles in unison, so he couldn't help but interrupted and asked, "What did you find? If you are like this, we onlookers will be very anxious!"
Seeing that Yi Lin was deep in thought and had no intention of explaining, Gu Tianqing glanced at the two "ordinary people" and explained kindly: "Ordinary serial murderers, even the ones who are completely psychopathic, choose the location of the serial murders. , it is unavoidable that there will be some rules, especially the continuous crimes in a short period of time, which is called "surrounding theory". The distance and time difference between these two places are really weird. Of course, the murderer this time has a "beastly nature" ’, and you can’t think about it in a normal way.”
Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye found out that Gu Tianqing said the same thing, and they were inevitably surprised again.
Why on earth are you so familiar with these things!
Yi Lin, who was in deep thought, suddenly raised her head and said, "Unless the two cases tonight are not 'the whole of the present'..."
I don't know if it's a coincidence.
Not long after Yi Lin finished saying this, before Yuan Zhiye had time to ponder it carefully, the phone rang again frantically.
Ten seconds later.
Yuan Zhiye's expression was shocked: "A new deceased has been discovered!"
