Nan Jing heard Li Ang talking to himself and asked with some confusion.

"Nothing," Li Ang shook his head, "Where is Beiye's address? Does he have any family members? I'm going to visit them."

"Mr. Kitano lives in a house in the North District, but I don't seem to have heard that he has any relatives, and he is not married," Nanjing thought for a while and said, "I don't know how specific it is."

"Then I'll go and have a look in person. I don't have anything else to ask. Thank you for your cooperation."

After saying hello to the director, Li Ang also declined his offer to stay.

Li Ang didn't think Nanjing was lying, which meant that the anomalies he saw in Kitano were indeed real. Li Ang was going to go to Kitano's house to check the situation. There might be other clues hidden there.

However, before Li Ang could walk out of the office building, his cell phone suddenly rang.

I took it out and saw that the caller ID showed an unfamiliar number.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Ang finally answered the phone.

"This is Leon, what can I do for you?"

"Where did you go? Why can't the bureau find your people?"

A rough voice came from the mobile phone. If I remember correctly...this seemed to be the voice of the director?

"Director? All the people from the Search Section [-] have been detained. There is nothing I can do if I stay in the bureau."

"I have some other guesses about the murderer, so I came out to investigate the clues. Is there any problem?"

"Huh? Clues?" Director Kumano's voice hesitated for a moment, "Forget it, no matter what you are doing, get to the scene right now!"

"The murderer has committed another crime. You are the only one who has seen him. Your information is needed at the scene."

Another crime?So fast?

According to the information collected by the police, shouldn't its hunting frequency be about a week?Is it because Li Ang injured it yesterday, so it needs to hunt to recover from the injury?

This speculation is very possible, but it may not be good news for the residents of this city.

"I understand, where is the location? I'll be there right away."

Director Kumano told Li Ang a familiar location, as if he had heard of it somewhere...

At this moment, Li Ang remembered, wasn't the sushi restaurant Adele mentioned last night near that location?

Li Ang suddenly had a bad premonition.

On the other side, sitting in her seat like yesterday, Adele originally planned to use class time to learn more about 'Professor Valk', and then find a reason to meet him during club activities this afternoon.

But there was a little surprise this morning. Even though the school bell had rang for a long time, the teacher still didn't come.

The chaos in the classroom lasted for a long time, and even if the class leaders stepped forward to maintain order, it was of no avail. Just when the first class in the morning was about to end, the belated teacher walked in from outside.

He immediately locked Adele in the crowd and said,

"Adele, come here, I have something to talk to you about."

Chapter 48 Wrong portion size

The moment the teacher appeared at the door, the classroom suddenly became quiet.

"OK……"

Adele couldn't help but feel a little nervous. It seemed like something had happened and she was going to be asked to go to the office for questioning.

So what is the reason?Could it be that her teacher knew what she was thinking, so he wanted to have an in-depth conversation to help her, a good student, get back on track?

...It shouldn’t be because of such a trivial matter.

When Adele came to the office, the teacher couldn't wait to ask, "Chiaki and Qiuye are your friends, right? When was the last time you contacted each other yesterday?"

"Eh?" Adele was slightly startled, not expecting this to be the question.

"Did something happen?"

"I can't contact them two," the teacher's expression looked very solemn. "They didn't come to school this morning. I contacted their parents and said they didn't go back last night. Do you know where they went?"

"This... Chiaki and Akiba went to the sushi restaurant where she worked yesterday after school. I had something to do at home yesterday so I didn't go with them." Adele hurriedly took out her phone and recorded the chat history between her and the two of them. Showed it to the teacher.

"They sent me pictures of sushi last night. Doesn't it say they have gone home?"

Adele said, pointing to the last message sent by Qiuye.

"What does this tas... mean?"

The teacher also noticed this somewhat strange message, and then the two of them looked at each other.

If it was determined in advance that the two of them had an accident, then this message would not be difficult to understand.

tas...tasukete...isn't this just an unfinished distress message?

After the two were silent for a while, the teacher said,

"Call the police, we have no other option."

Because of Director Kumano's call, Li Ang could only temporarily give up his plan to investigate Kitano House.

After putting away the hard drive and tape recorder he got from Nan Jing, Li Ang drove to the location mentioned by the director.

When Li Ang arrived there, the police had already cordoned off the surrounding area, a yellow cordon had been drawn up on the scene, and the piercing sirens could be heard across several streets.

Unlike the previous cases, this time the deceased was found in the downtown area. Many reporters who had heard the news were already outside the cordon. The case this time will definitely not be covered up as easily as it was in the previous three months.

If this were in a game, this would be a critical moment where the plot is about to take a turn.

"I'm Leon from Class One, let me in."

After showing his ID to the police officers staying outside the blockade, Li Ang successfully entered the crime scene.

Outside an alley that exuded a strong smell of blood, Li Ang saw a large number of police officers, but the strange thing was that they were all gathered outside the alley and had no intention of going in.

"Director Kumano asked me to come here to assist in the investigation. Who can tell me what happened here? Who is in charge here?"

The police officers who were watching outside looked at me and I looked at you. Finally, one person stood up and said, "Captain Lin is asking the owner of this store about the situation. As for what happened here..."

"Of course someone died again... The scene is in this alley. You can go in and take a look for yourself."

As he said that, the man showed a strange smile, and everyone around him looked like he was watching the fun.

It seems... there are still many people who intend to see the joke made by him, an elite in the professional group.

The police department has never been monolithic. After all, the police are just a profession, and there is also a chain of contempt within the police department.

Members of the elite group like Li Ang started at a position they had worked hard to reach all their lives, so they naturally faced hostility. Although it would not be too obvious, they would not miss the opportunity to see the jokes of the elite group.

"Then let me take a look at the situation at the scene first, and then we can talk about other issues when your captain comes out."

With that said, Li Ang passed the police officers blocking the front and stepped into the alley.

Of course, Li Ang disappointed these people. Seeing the hellish scene in the alley, Li Ang only frowned slightly.

Pink minced meat was evenly smeared on every inch of the wall here, dyeing the entire alley red. The flesh and blood on the wall seemed to have not lost its activity. Li Ang noticed that they were slowly squirming with the rhythm of breathing. With,

If these minced meats could form some kind of pattern, such as a huge human face, with a painfully twisted expression, it might be more scary. But now it's just a bit off-putting, at least today, Li Ang doesn't want to see meat. kind of food.

Because of the tragic scene here, the on-site investigation work progressed extremely slowly. From time to time, someone would rush out of the alley and run to the tree pit outside to vomit. They were also responsible for the bad smell at the scene.

Li Ang saw some dismantled bones among the minced meat on the ground, which seemed to have been left by the victim, but... how did this strange and bloody scene come about?Even if a person is exploded from the inside, such a uniform mark cannot be formed.

"Do you have any extra gloves?"

Li Ang asked the police officer outside without looking back.

"...Ah, yes, yes! This is for you!"

After a moment of silence, the police officer closest to Li Ang quickly brought a pair of gloves and put them in Li Ang's hands.

He must be a ruthless character to be able to remain calm in the face of such a situation. In just a few minutes, Li Ang was already labeled as someone not to be messed with.

Li Ang didn't care about their reactions. After putting on his gloves, he approached the wall covered with minced meat. Under the slightly awed eyes of the surrounding police officers, he scraped a handful of minced meat from the wall.

"Has the identity of the victim been found out?" Li Ang asked while observing the minced meat.

"Ah, this is clear. There are two victims. One is a female student working here, and the other is her friend. They left yesterday after their boss left. The boss didn't know what happened. What, he only discovered the situation here when he came to open the store in the morning."

"We also found their belongings nearby."

After observing for a while, Li Ang smeared the minced meat on the wall again, and then suddenly said, "That's not right..."

"What's wrong?"

"The amount of flesh and blood here is wrong." Li Ang said lightly, "If only two high school girls with normal body types died, don't you think there is too much minced meat on the wall?"

"This is not what a hundred kilograms should be."

Chapter 49 Takeover

The weight of a 150 or [-]-year-old girl is at most [-] to [-] kilograms. Even if these two people are a little overweight, it is unlikely to exceed [-] kilograms. If the weight of the bones is removed, even if all their flesh and blood are crushed and painted On the wall, it would be impossible to create this scene.

The minced meat on the wall is one centimeter thick. If this thing is really human flesh and blood, then the number of victims is likely to exceed double digits.

And this thing is alive to a certain extent and will react instinctively to Li Ang's movements, so Li Ang speculates that it is not the flesh and blood of the victim, but something else.

This is something that can be easily judged, but these police officers were frightened by the situation at the scene and were unable to make normal judgments.

Although Li Ang's analysis made sense, the police officers around him still felt an inexplicable chill. They also put aside their contempt for Li Ang and began to act obediently according to his orders.

"The victim may still be alive. What evidence is collected at the scene? Show it to me."

"That's all we found at the scene. The rest may have been thrown elsewhere by the murderer."

A police officer came over and handed several sealed evidence bags to Li Ang.

Apart from school textbooks and some scattered jewelry, the most valuable exhibits are two blood-stained student ID cards and a mobile phone with a broken screen.

When Li Ang saw the names on the two student ID cards, he sighed in his heart. Sure enough, the victims were the two friends Adele mentioned... I really don't know how to convey this news. Tell Adele.

Although she said she didn't want to have too much to do with the world, Li Ang could see that Adele actually regarded the two girls as friends.

This really gives Li Ang a headache... Even if he wants to hide this news, he can't hide it for long. If these two people don't go to class, someone will always find the problem.

Li Ang clicked on the mobile phone through the evidence bag and found that except for the broken screen, the mobile phone could still be used normally. The last message sent was fixed at 44:[-] pm, and then the two of them encountered something unexpected. .

"Where's the surveillance video around here? I remember there was a camera at the intersection next to it, right? That angle should be able to take pictures here." Li Ang turned around and asked.

"People from the traffic control department have sent the surveillance video, but we didn't find anything unusual at all."

As he spoke, he lowered his phone, and what was playing on it was the surveillance video from a nearby camera.

After adjusting the recording time to about [-]:[-] last night, Li Ang adjusted the video back to normal speed and watched minute by second. The camera could capture the entrance to the alley. If someone came in or out from here, It will definitely be caught on camera.

At about [-]:[-], you can see that the lights in the sushi restaurant go out, and it seems that two female voices are packing their things and getting ready to leave.

According to the testimony of the owner of the sushi restaurant, he left the main entrance of the sushi restaurant at [-]:[-] last night. The surveillance camera on another road also captured his departure, and this alley leads to The back door of the sushi house. The boss will go in a big circle when walking from here, so only the two people working here will use the back kitchen of the sushi house. There have been no problems in the past few months, so the boss is used to it. a practice.

About 1 minute after the lights of the sushi restaurant were completely turned off, the surveillance camera captured a fleeting light coming from the alley. It was speculated that it might be the light from the flash of a mobile phone, but this light only lasted less than 3 minutes. He fell into darkness again.

It wasn't until the next morning that a middle-aged man dressed as a chef ran out of the alley and crawled.

During this period of time, no one entered the alley, and no one left the alley. The two girls seemed to have been swallowed by the alley, and they disappeared silently.

"This is the situation. The murderer somehow avoided the surveillance. I also ruled out whether someone hid in this alley in advance. No one has entered here in the past few days."

"Don't you know how you came in and left..."

Just like the previous encounter with it, it also disappeared from Li Ang's eyes without any warning. Li Ang always felt as if he had overlooked something.

His perception quickly swept through the alley. The walls on both sides of the alley were sealed. There were no windows or secret doors. If you came in from the alley, it would be captured by the surveillance cameras.

However, on the ground of the alley, Li Ang found an entrance leading to the underground.

Li Ang quickly walked to the entrance, which was a sewer entrance with an iron grate. In addition to blood stains, there was also a thick layer of grease and food residue solidified on the iron grate, which looked very disgusting.

He stretched out his hand and grabbed the iron grid and lifted it up. The iron grid was firmly fixed on the ground and motionless, and it looked like it was rusted to death.

"This...is this the entrance to the sewer, right?"

A police officer suppressed his nausea and followed Li Ang into the alley. When he saw Li Ang's movements, he said with some confusion, "Even a child can't get through here, right?"

"Maybe." Li Ang said lightly, taking off his dirty gloves.

Humans can't fit through the narrow sewer entrances, but that's not necessarily true for non-humans.
