Cyber ​​Swordsman 2121

Chapter 59, the strange "knife"

Zhang San has always seldom ingested foreign food. In that part of the mission, only when the last mission was almost successful, seeing the hope of revenge, he couldn't help but bought the glass of his favorite eau-de-vie.

More importantly, when I bought water in the restaurant, I once smelled a smell of blood hidden under the masala.

Zhang San's suspicion at the time was that he was watching the bloodshed caused by the unscrupulous gangster Zhang Baoren while sheltering from the rain.

But Zhang Baoren himself knew that he only avoided the rain there because he was worried that the rain would affect his acceptance, and he didn't do anything at all.

So what's up with that gore?

The clean restaurant that only smells like masala and the blood coming from there?
Reminiscent of the nervous expression of the restaurant owner that day, I thought it was because of my identity before, but now... probably there is another reason.

...

As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Baoren stopped his casual wandering, and checked the location from left to right. The decent restaurant happened to be not far from him, only a few minutes away.

After thinking about it, he walked straight towards the restaurant...

Victoria Street South.

At the entrance of the restaurant, the pink 3D signboard flickered as if it was in bad contact. The heart shapes around it disappeared, leaving only Chinese characters.

The location of the store is surrounded by a red warning light belt. The doors and windows inside are broken, the walls are broken, and the scorched black is everywhere... It seems as if it has been bombed by artillery fire, and it has nothing like it used to be.

Zhang Baoren looked at the two huge 3D-projected seals above the store, saying "Jiang Taigong evacuates here for fire" seals.

"Is there a fire? Or is someone destroying the leads?"

After thinking about it, he picked up his personal terminal to check the fire news that happened in the past two days.

During this period of time, because of the Third Pharmaceutical incident, the city was full of ups and downs, and the public's attention was attracted, and no one cared about other things.

Of course, even in normal times, no one would pay attention to the trivial matter of a shop being burned down.

Zhang Baoren searched for a long time before he found a police notice in a corner.

［…On the morning of August 2121, 8, a fire broke out in a restaurant called Zhengzheng Restaurant in the southern section of Victoria Street in Brahma City in the third district. The fire was temporarily suspected to be an electrical circuit.

After the disaster, the police found the bodies of two males from the scene. One was the owner of the restaurant, and the other was a new employee who was intern in the restaurant. Because the bodies were severely damaged, the specific cause of death could not be determined for the time being. Experts speculated that they were victims of electric current operations. Can't escape the fire scene in time...]
"Two people burned to death? The boss and the employee who just came to practice."

That means there are actually two people in that restaurant.

Then why didn't you see the new employee that day?
Of course, it is also possible that I saw the new employee that day, but the boss I didn’t actually see!

Think of the bloody smell that Zhang San smelled, and the inexplicable poison he was poisoned.

It is entirely possible that a person first applied for a job in the restaurant as a new employee, learned cooking skills and observed the chef's appearance, and then killed him at the critical moment, and disguised his appearance to complete the poisoning...

As for why two bodies were found?

Naturally, it was for the golden cicada to escape its shell.

If there is only one corpse, it is clear that there is something wrong, and the police will definitely investigate it seriously.

As for the two corpses, there were no obvious traces of murder, and the filing levels were naturally different. At the same time, most of the valid information was destroyed due to the fire, and they could not be carefully screened, which greatly reduced the possibility of exposure.

But for me, this also means that no useful clues can be found from the wreckage after the fire burned everything. Although it is more certain that in the Tianshi Mansion incident, the poisoner was someone else, but there are no traces and clues about him. But it also broke.

Turned around and returned to the original point.

Ugh…

Zhang Baoren couldn't help but sighed helplessly, but when he was about to turn around and leave in disappointment.

Out of the corner of the eye, there was a gleam of light in the wreckage after the fire.

"Well, is this?"

With a certain look in his eyes, he got through the cordon and groped towards it.

This is a piece of stainless steel iron, because the burnt shell on the surface has peeled off a little, revealing a bright steel body, which reflects the neon light, and Zhang Baoren noticed it in his eyes.

Lifted away the wreckage of the cooking machine pressed on the stainless steel piece, dug out an iron piece covered with a lot of coke, and then picked it up and knocked it on the spot a few times, and the carbon slag fell off easily. The iron sheet became brand new, smooth and recognizable, and at the same time revealed its true appearance——

a knife'.

A kitchen knife without a handle.

"Chef's knife? Why is this thing?"

It is very unusual for a kitchen knife to appear in a restaurant.

This kind of ancient utensil is rarely used in daily life when the water of life supports all human beings, so it is rare to see such things. Except for the ancient movies in Da Luo Tianzhong, there are only some collectors There will be some at home.

But now the kitchen knife, which should appear in the history museum, appeared majestically at the fire scene in the kitchen.

Moreover, this kitchen knife is obviously made of expensive materials. Even after a fire, the blade is still bright and shiny without any wear and tear, and it can be used as a mirror.

He gently scraped the still sharp blade with his thumb, and narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he didn't know whether it was left by the chef or the mysterious person, it could undoubtedly be a clue.

Thinking about it, he wrapped the knife in cloth and stuffed it in his pocket.

Then I searched carefully in the pile of fire wreckage several times, but as expected, I found nothing.

So I could only go back home for the time being.

...

Zhang Baoren's safe house is still living here.

Although the three big bosses were eliminated, the hidden dangers have been eliminated. At No. 6 Victoria Street, Building 3b of Happy Apartment, the residence at 3b02 is already safe, but because of the battle with Blackwater that night, the house was beaten into a mess, and now it is being reopened. It's under renovation, so I can't go back for the time being.

As for why it hasn't been finished yet, it's because Zhang Baoren only felt that his life and death in the future were uncertain after understanding his situation because of Zhang San's memory at that time, so there was no way to control these things, and it also needed money to deal with the crisis.

So I didn't care about it all the time, but now that the hidden dangers have been eliminated, there is no more trouble, and I have to live on, and the mess will naturally be cleaned up again.

Returning to the safe room, pushing open the door, one mouthful was flying rhythmically in the living room with the charger plugged in, and one mouthful did not follow the action against the big boss in order to prevent information from being exposed.

Seeing Zhang Baoren coming back, he immediately stopped in mid-air, "How is it, okay."

"Well, everything went according to plan, and the big boss was solved smoothly."

"That's good, I was worried about any accidents..."

"Then how do I see you having fun?"

"Ahem... I just took a break." Yikou slowly turned around, "Then what... I haven't forgotten anything about the time you didn't come back."
