Infinite Throne

  Chapter 439 "I want to cut something different." (6600 word chapter for monthly ticket)

   "What about the other dead?"

   "I haven't seen it yet, but I guess it's about the same."

Gu Tianqing smiled and said, "But this man who is secretly manipulating the 'leech' is very smart. He deliberately left leech mucus everywhere on the scene, trying to hide the 'entrance' where the leech army really invaded. Besides, the target he chose , seems to have been carefully selected, the version of the AI ​​housekeeper in the house is the one without video surveillance, which is a bit interesting."

"Actually, if you really want to hide it, you can't hide it. After all, with this simple method, maybe even a criminal police officer with a certain seniority who graduated from the special warfare department can't deceive the past. It's just because ordinary people have never seen this There are so many battles, so I don't know how to deal with it for a while."

   Gu Tianqing smiled, looked at Yi Rin, 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, even if he looks very funny and awkward. By the way, I am temporarily assuming that 'he' is an apostle." Yi Rin told Gu Tianqing He said something he knew deeply: "I'm more curious, why did the man who manipulated the leech to kill eleven people in the same place?"

  Gu Tianqing nodded and agreed: "That's right. If it were me, killing one and changing places would reduce the chance of exposure."

   "Oh, very experienced."

  Irin looked calm and looked at Gu Tianqing.

  Tianqing Gu responded with an elegant smile: "I'll just give an example."

"Ha ha."

  Irin smiled without saying a word, without breaking the point.

   "What's next?"

   Gu Tianqing asked with a smile.

  Even though she knew that Gu Tianqing was changing the subject mellowly, Yi Rin was too lazy to say anything and walked out of the community.

"After investigation, although we can confirm that the group of cute little leeches are hiding in the sewers. But this range is too large, it is very impractical to carry out a carpet search. Moreover, if our opponents are really a group of With intelligent leeches, there is no way to wipe them out under the current conditions."

   "So, we'll just have to wait."

  Irin nodded in agreement.

   Exactly.

Wait.

   This is the only way for now.

   "Wake up and talk about it."

   Yi Rin yawned, leaving Gu Tianqing behind.

  Gu Tianqing looked at Yi Rin who was quickly moving away, suddenly chuckled, and said to Yi Rin's back: "I don't know if it is my illusion, but now you seem to be a little impatient. What happened?"

  Irin took a step.

   But he didn't look back.

   "This is your illusion. Besides, what does it have to do with you if I'm in a hurry?"

   "Yeah, it doesn't matter."

  …

  …

   This wait is three days.

   In the past three days, Molly finally sent a reply.

   "Fantastic. How did you get this information?"

   Molly spoke highly of Yilin's efficiency.

   "Hehe, trade secrets."

"Bah." Molly spat, but didn't ask any further: "I checked. According to the data, there are currently seven research institutions that hold Xingchen Steel, except for my laboratory. Yes. Now, you are in Cangyang City, right? I don't know if it's a coincidence, there is one of the research institutes specializing in new semiconductor materials, not far from Cangyang City. I will send it to you later, you can find a place to receive it a bit."

"clear."

  Irin narrowed his eyes slightly after hearing the news, but didn't say anything more.

  Some things are destined to not let Molly be too clear about the details.

   Regarding the search for Xingchen Steel, Yi Rin is not in a hurry for the time being.

   To be precise, you can’t be in a hurry.

   Although what happened in the scientific research department, Yu Meng and Zhao Yulong paid more attention to the mere document in Area A. But Irin couldn't be completely sure that the loss of the document would not attract anyone's attention. Therefore, Yi Rin can only temporarily put all his thoughts into solving the "leech murder incident" in Cangyang City first.

After    and Gu Tianqing investigated the place of death of the most recent deceased, Irin had already roughly figured out the context of the incident.

  There is a person who has the ability to manipulate leeches.

   For some purpose, he manipulated leeches and killed eleven ordinary people within a month.

  These eleven deceased people have nothing in common except that they all lived alone.

   In fact, "single, living alone" is also the common denominator of most serial murders without a specific target.

  Because of this type of target, it is easy to start.

   Generally speaking, the murderers of this type of murder are also collectively referred to as "perverted serial murderers".

   "In every sense, it can really be said to be 'perverted'."

   During these three days.

  The mysterious "leech man" seemed to know that a big net was about to be rolled out in Cangyang City, and had no plans to bubble up at all.

   is like disappearing completely.

  Because of the special circumstances of the case, involving "abnormalities", the entire case was forcibly concealed.

   At present, Cangyang City is still a peaceful scene, and it has not fallen into chaos because of this.

   But nothing special happened during these three days.

   At least, today, at the Cangyang City Police Station, a special person came to the temporary office temporarily set up for Yi Rin and others.

  …

  Irin looked at the girl in front of her with a black scabbard long sword hanging around her waist, and she had a headache.

   "Why did you come here?"

  Oda Mai raised her eyelids slightly, her eyes were cold, and in a tone that was neither salty nor light, she slowly said, "Can't I come?"

   "Ah no, that's not what I meant." Yi Rin stepped back behind Gu Tianqing without a trace: "I mean, you don't practice your sword at home, what are you doing in this muddy water?"

  Oda Mai muttered: "My sword has encountered a bottleneck."

"so?"

Does    have any direct or indirect relationship with your coming to Cangyang City when you encounter a bottleneck?

   Keep practicing!

   Maybe you will break the bottleneck while practicing!

  Irin was stunned that there was no way to link these two things together.

   "So, I want to chop something different."

  Oda Mai said as a matter of course.

  Irin: "…"

  Wang Bing: "…"

  Yuan Zhiye: "…"

   I am most afraid of the sudden quietness of the air.

   This girl is too murderous.

  Irin was even more puzzled.

   He once met Oda Mai during the trial at Styx Junior High School.

   By the way, what other monsters have you never cut?

  Gu Tianqing clapped his hands and smiled, and said, "It's okay, it's just right, we are also short of people."

   When Oda Mai was pressing the sword on his waist, Yi Rin had already slowly asked Zhao Yulong a question mark.

   A question mark that already contains all of Yi Rin's emotions.

   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 fan, absolutely—"

   "click."

   Yi Rin killed Zhao Yulong's channel with a backhand, and then blocked it.

   When the mood is good, let Zhao Yulong out.

   In short.

  Irin probably understood.

   Zhao Yulong didn't know what method to use, and he fooled Oda Mai into the special group.

  According to the acting style of the special group, most of them act in groups of two or three according to the abilities and characteristics of each group member. There are not many wonderful people in the group who like to solve cases by themselves.

  Oda Mai is currently an official staff member.

   In this regard, Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye had already received a notice from Zhao Yulong, and there was no surprise.

   On the contrary, it was Gu Tianqing.

  When Wang Bing saw Gu Tianqing's harmless smile, he sounded the alarm frantically in his heart.

   In his opinion, Gu Tianqing is obviously not a good person.

  If it wasn't for Yilin's guaranteed ticket, Gu Tianqing should, maybe, possibly be able to help. Wang Bing might just press Gu Tianqing down and check it out.

  With Oda Mai, who is in charge of the force, the field team is obviously useless.

  Irin didn't hesitate, and used the field team as an investigation team, and sent it out to search for various information in Cangyang City.

   The key search areas are those that are closely connected to the sewer exit.

   For example, sewage outlets, light factories, and various communities.

on the other hand.

  Yuan Zhiye is specially responsible for targeting the next possible victim and narrowing down the scope of the leech man's murder in advance.

   As for Yilin's decision, although Gu Tianqing did not veto it, of course he was not qualified to do otherwise.

   But Gu Tianqing only said one sentence:

   "Oh, this is a stupid way."

   That's right, this kind of carpet search, in Gu Tianqing's opinion, is a way out of nowhere.

   Strictly speaking, it's not even a solution.

   is just going crazy to find the murderer under limited conditions.

   During the three days when the leech man completely hid, Yi Rin even used high-tech means, trying to use a mini robot with a camera to enter the sewer to see if he could find some traces of the leech passing by. But after trying this method for a while, it was declared a failure.

   Not to mention that the route of a city's underground drainage pipes is too intricate and outrageous than a maze. And the sewers are dark and damp, which can almost completely wash away the mucous membrane components and residual secretions left by the leeches when they pass by. Unless it's an army of tens of thousands of robots in the sewers, it won't work at all.

   Everything is back to square one.

As the field team and the investigation team headed by Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye sent one "no discovery" feedback one after another, Yi Lin, who was sitting in the temporary office, did not show much fluctuation on his face, but it was undeniable that, There was indeed a sense of anxiety in his heart.

   As Gu Tianqing saw at a glance: He was too impatient.

  Irin remembered that guy's smug smile, and couldn't help but dig the dead skin on his forehead, asking himself.

  …Really so obvious?

   Admittedly, there were indeed many things that made Irin unable to help but get impatient.

   He felt that he should not spend too much time on this kind of thing.

   But at present, the preparations are not enough, and it is not yet time to completely leave the special group.

   Compared with Yi Rin's impatience, Gu Tianqing is strangely laid back.

   He even opened a recently popular game on his mobile phone and played the qualifying match happily.

   "Well, is this how this hero is made?"

   "Ah, so it turns out that a mage will be scolded for making a meat suit..."

   "Forget it, just surrender."

  “…”

  Gu Tianqing had a great time.

  Oda Mai moved a small stool, sat in the corner, took out a flannel, and wiped the blade carefully.

   Another four hours passed.

   into the night.

  Yuan Zhiye hurried in with a heavy expression.

   "Not good! Someone was killed again! It's a leech man!"

   I don't know who gave the murderer the down-to-earth name "Leech Man". Yuan Zhiye thought the name was weird at first, but he shouted and shouted inexplicably, and gradually he got used to it.

   The three apostles sitting in the temporary office suddenly stood up with different expressions.

  Irin and Gu Tianqing looked at each other and said at the same time:

   "Five days!"

  …

  …

   is different from Yuan Zhiye's heavy heart.

  Irin breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that someone was killed again.

   Finally waiting for you!

   Three days, three days, three days.

  Irin wasted three whole days here.

  Do you know how I got here these three days?

   Yuan Zhiye, who broke in, was stunned for a moment.

   These two guys stood up suddenly, what happened to their eyes?

"where?"

   Yi Rin didn't wait for Yuan Zhiye to tangle, and asked directly.

   Yuan Zhiye also quickly reported the location.

   upon hearing this.

   Yi Rin and Gu Tianqing once again had a good heart and thought of something.

   It has been five days since the Leech Man was dispatched last time.

   This is also something Irin finds strange.

  Before they came, the leeches had committed eleven murders in just one month.

   On average, one shot every two or three days.

   This time, he had to wait five days.

   There are only two possibilities.

  Irin: "Either there is a reason to wait."

  Gu Tianqing smiled: "Either, he found that someone was looking for him."

   I'm in a good mood again!

  Irin hates this feeling a bit.

   But I have to say that dealing with such weird things with Gu Tianqing can indeed save a lot of brain cells.

While thinking   , Irin glanced at Oda Mai, who also stood up silently not far away.

   In fact, it is not without any benefit to act with Oda Mai, who has no brains but a knife.

   At least if something happens, it can save a lot of physical energy.

   After half an hour.

  Irin, Oda Mai, Gu Tianqing, Yuan Zhiye arrived at the scene.

   This is the twelfth murder scene of the leech serial murder case.

  —fresh.

   The scene has been cordoned off by the police.

   The informant is a neighbor.

   After a simple check, the police can directly rule out the first person who reported the crime, that is, the neighbor of the deceased.

   After all, the neighbor was rolling sheets with his girlfriend.

   There are still traces of dampness on the sheets.

  Evidence and evidence are all there, nothing to say, very clean, both clean and white.

  …

   Inside the cordon, the chief of Cangyang City Police, Liao Jianbai, arrived at the scene in person.

   I have seen Yilin in the past three days, so I omitted the steps of introduction.

"Detective Yi, it's been hard work." Director Liao is in a high position, so he naturally knows that these strange looking people in front of him have unusual identities and backgrounds, and he doesn't dare to underestimate them. They took the lead in stepping out of the cordon to welcome him.

   "Tell me about the case."

  Tani Tianqing is a special assistant of Irin, and Oda Mai has a disability in verbal communication. Therefore, the hard work of communicating with ordinary people, of course, fell on Yi Rin's head, well-deserved.

  Liao Jianbai looked at the time, his face sank, and said in a very fast speech:

   "The time of the incident should have been twenty minutes ago."

"The death state of the corpse is more than 90% similar to the visual observation of the first ten cases, and the scene is covered with fresh mucus. The possibility of imitating the crime can be ruled out initially, and the murderer should be the same person. However, the specific autopsy report will have to wait for the forensic doctor. Conclusions can only be drawn after an autopsy."

"The deceased, male, 24 years old, fresh graduate, living alone, single. Because the attributes were too low during the retest, he did not find an ideal job. He has been looking for a job for almost six months. There is no official Work, addicted to computer games and live broadcasts, is a standard otaku."

   Director Liao Jianbai wiped the sweat from his forehead.

   I don’t know if it’s scary or anxious.

   As he spoke, Liao Jianbai did not dare to delay and brought a few people into the house.

  Tani Tianqing nodded slightly towards Yi Rin, and had already taken the initiative to go to every room to search for clues that the police might have missed.

  Oda Mai didn't bother to pay attention to so much, just glanced at the scene, there seemed to be no enemy who could cut, so she simply held the knife and stood behind Irin, like a super female bodyguard.

  Yuan Zhiye quickly and skillfully joined the other members of the investigation team in the house and prepared to summarize a report to Yilin.

   Sure enough.

   Having someone under your command is a good thing.

  Liao Jianbai saw that Yi Rin and his party had almost no communication after entering the murder scene, and they had already started to split up and could not help but nodded secretly.

   Really professional.

   After a short pause, Director Liao Jianbai continued to say to Yi Rin: "The first person to find out that the deceased was killed was a neighbor, a 32-year-old male. His identity has been checked, and there is nothing special. He is a clerk in an IT company."

"About 20 minutes ago, the neighbor of the deceased was in bed with his girlfriend. While in the same room, the neighbor of the deceased described that there was the sound of smashing things and the screams of the deceased. Because the same room was emotionally affected. The neighbor of the deceased was very angry at the time, so he rushed to the next door and slammed the door."

   "Oh?" Yi Rin raised her eyebrows, and the process of discovering the murder was rather dramatic.

   "In short, we have initially ruled out the suspicion of the neighbors. The murderer should still be... a leech man."

   Don't know when to start.

   After the murderer was inexplicably assigned the code name of "Leech Man", even the police began to shout.

   - Although many people feel that there is something wrong with the name.

  Although the code name of the murderer is hard to describe, the death of the corpse and the tragic scene at the scene, if Liao Jianbai was used to seeing many big scenes when he was doing this, he might have vomited out the moment he saw the corpse.

   It has been less than half an hour since the incident happened.

   The police don't have much information.

   After briefly understanding what happened, Yi Rin smiled slightly and said to Liao Jianbai: "Thank you for your hard work. From now on, we, the 'professionals', will take over. Remember, keep it confidential."

"Yes Yes Yes!"

  Liao Jianbai wished Yilin said so, and when Yilin nodded, he took the other police officers away without saying a word.

   After a few minutes.

   At the murder scene, Irin and his party were left.

  Wang Bing had been in Cangyang City for a long time, but when he saw the "dummy" corpse again, he still felt slightly numb on his scalp and itchy skin all over his body. It seems that the brain can empathize with the feeling that countless soft-bodied creatures are squirming on the skin and sucking blood.

   After the ordinary people leave the venue.

  Their professionals do their jobs without hindrance.

   Five minutes later, the group reunited in the living room.

   In addition to Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye, the other tool people team members were driven outside the door by two people to take care of the wind.

   Several people looked at each other.

   After a moment of silence.

  Gu Tianqing coughed twice, then smiled: "Then let me come first, it's considered as... a trick? From the superficial clues, the family of the deceased should be quite wealthy."

  Yuan Zhiye: "?"

  Wang Bing: "?"

  Oda Mai: "?"

   A question mark popped up on the foreheads of the three at the same time.

   This family is rich or not... What does it have to do with how the deceased died?

  The leech people are greedy for the body of the deceased, not for the purpose of robbery.

   Unexpectedly, Yi Rin nodded, his expression was not surprised, and said calmly: "Well, a fresh graduate, he has not had a job for half a year, and he can still live in a high-end community. His family is indeed wealthy."

  Wang Bing finally couldn't bear it anymore, scratched his head, and asked, "Is this... family is rich or not, and it has something to do with the case?"

   Gu Tianqing smiled without saying a word.

Yi Rin briefly explained: "It can be said that it has something to do with it, or it can be said that it does not matter much. Forget it, let's not mention it for the time being. There is no objection to the method of death of the deceased. Like the other eleven deceased, they were also killed in a short period of time. Drained all blood and died."

Gu Tianqing continued with a smile: "This time, the other party seems to be 'too lazy' to hide the way of intrusion. The secretions from the body surface of the leeches did not spread all over the house, but were concentrated in several drainage outlets. Obviously, these leeches army are The intrusion from all the drains, and then in a short period of time, to a staggering number, alarmed the dead."

  Irin pointed to the ground, with all kinds of broken glass and furniture decorations in various places, and said, "This time the leech march seems to be getting more and more proficient, blocking the exit directly and swarming up. Well, the classic dumpling tactic."

  Gu Tianqing pondered for a few seconds, although the smirk still hung on his face, he shook his head helplessly: "We are very passive."

"Not necessarily." Yi Rin smiled: "This time, when the leech man committed the murder, a neighbor knocked on the door outside, so he had to retreat in advance without any aftermath. It is very likely that other murder scenes were left here. A clue that never left. And…”

  Irin only spoke half of her words and looked at Gu Tianqing.

  Tianqing Gu smiled and nodded as a response.

  What the hell.

   Can you make your frowns less obvious?

   Apart from the indifferent Oda Dance, Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye felt like outsiders.

   I don’t understand at all!

   Can you say some lines that normal people can easily understand?

  When Yi Rin and Gu Tianqing were playing dumb riddles in front of the others, Yuan Zhiye suddenly remembered, and hurriedly raised his master as if offering a treasure.

"By the way, we have a discovery here! The AI ​​housekeeper used in the deceased's house is a high-end version with indoor monitoring. In fact, shortly after the neighbor called the police, the family AI housekeeper also automatically sent out a call for help because it detected an abnormal picture. alert."

   "What about the video?"

   "Need to go back and see. When we went out, we didn't bring our tablet."

   "You are not professional."

  “…”

  Irin waved his hand: "Okay, then take it back and take a look."

   The information that I want to know, Irin already has a rough idea.

  Irin believes that Gu Tianqing also has an idea.

  Just, not sure yet.

   But the idea belongs to the idea, how to find out the leech man is even more difficult.

   After returning to the temporary office, Yuan Zhiye used the fastest speed to transfer the surveillance video saved by the AI ​​housekeeper.

   Lots of video angles.

  Before he died, the deceased was squatting in front of the computer, playing games with an arrogant expression.

Next to    is a quick snack.

   The room was clean and tidy to the point of absurdity.

   Soon, the "dead" seemed to sense the change, his expression changed, and then he left the bedroom and walked out.

  The next picture is very brutal.

  From the exits of the various drainage pipes, the army of black leeches squirmed frantically, almost covering the whole house. This vivid scene made Yuan Zhiye pale. The point is not the horror and bloodshed, but that human beings will involuntarily have a tingling scalp and an increase in stomach acid in response to such a wriggling creature.

   This is a normal physiological phenomenon.

   But the **** scene didn't last long. The army of leeches was squirming very fast, splitting up a few times and blocking it directly in front of the camera. In the following video, only the sound of the leech squirming, the sound of smashing furniture, and the short, panicked screams of the deceased are left.

   Within thirty seconds, several people listened to the voice of the deceased from high, to hoarse, to weak, and finally stopped abruptly. Just listening to the change in this voice, a few people were enough to make up for the deceased's desperate mood when the deceased was covered with leeches and madly sucked blood.

  Irin and Gu Tianqing frowned at the same time when they saw several groups of leeches methodically blocking the camera.

  In the video, only the "chirp" sound of the leech is left.

   Suddenly.

  Irin's eyes narrowed and he blurted out, "What is this sound?"

   Monthly passes are too few! I cry badly! Ask for monthly tickets for various positions!
