Chapter 8: Emerald A Dream
In the end, Zheng Yi still didn't get any more useful information from the master.
Either it was hearsay, or it was some fragmented and indistinguishable words that were difficult to distinguish between true and false. In fact, the old master didn't know what happened that night and how it was dealt with.
However, it was a surprise anyway, at least Zheng Yi didn't need to conduct a blanket search around Jiangdao's community on his first night like a headless chicken.
Jianlong Road became his first destination tonight.
Zheng Xin, who had dinner at Bing Ning's house and was still thinking about supper, made an easier-to-digest milk-flavored vegetable porridge before going to bed, stared at this crazy girl who had been dancing around all day and covered her with a quilt, and Zheng Yi returned to Go to your own room, change your clothes and sit at the desk.
He just waited until he could hear Zheng Xin's furtive typing on the keyboard disappeared and her breathing became more and more calm, then stood up from the chair and opened the curtains.
It was already late at night when the moon and stars were sparse outside, and there was basically no sound in the community, except that the street lights placed at intervals made the road a bit dim, and no one could be seen at all.
There are still a few lights on in the single apartment building in the distance, but they are only a few.
Zheng Yi checked the sealed keys in his pocket, put on his navy blue hood, put on the pink Peggy mask he had retired from Zheng Xin, and slowly opened the window.
This city can't be said to be like spring all the year round, but even the nights in autumn and winter are not too cool. The wind carries a little humidity unique to coastal cities. For Zheng Yi, he can even smell a little sea breeze.
This is the gentle and calm wind of his hometown that Zheng Yi is familiar with.
It's been a long time since he had the time to open the window.
Clutching the window sill deftly, Zheng Yi jumped out of the window lightly, then freed up one hand to close the window, and locked the door from the outside with a small mechanism specially installed before.
He let go of his hand, stepped on the outer wall and exerted his strength carefully, jumped onto a palm tree not far away and used the trunk to turn over vigorously, and finally fell silently to the ground.
Looking around, the security guards in the community are all on regular night patrols, and this time just happened to be the end of the last round of patrols.
Looking back at the quiet home, just in case, Zheng Yi left R6 in the garage, so that if something happens at home when Zheng Yi is not around, even if R6 can't beat the intruder, at least take Zheng Xin to leave no problem.
It can be regarded as absolutely no worries.
"Then, I'm going out, Xiaoxin."
——
See Dragon Road.
This is not a road section that is particularly quiet at night. In fact, as a road section near the bachelor apartment advertised by the developer as "safe, clean, and comfortable", Jianlong Road is quite complete with various facilities.
From shopping malls to gyms, from bars to KTV, from coffee shops to restaurants, basically all the needs of a person's daily life can be met near this Jianlong Road.
It is precisely because of this that the division of areas along Jianlong Road is relatively obvious.
And the road where the incident happened that Zheng Yi learned from the old master happened to be in the entertainment area of Jianlong Road, where there are many bars.
Mixing in the crowd, for these laughing and joking young people, now is probably the beginning of the night life.
This is a noisy environment that Zheng Yi is not very familiar with nor likes very much. It is different from standing in the center of the arena, bathed in eyes, sounds and spotlights. This kind of chaos is more like the realization of the word desire itself.
【Zheng Yi, I feel a little uncomfortable here...】
[Tch, humans really haven't changed anywhere. 】
[In the memory of Kiyoto Maki and Eiji Hino, we have not experienced this kind of area so closely, can you please get closer? 】
"Sorry, Prietra, no."
Gently pressing the hot core coin through his shirt, Zheng Yi smiled and shook his head: "Our purpose is not that, sorry Cuike, Tirano, please bear with me."
[I will work hard, Zheng Yi. 】
【Okay, since you said that. 】
【Pity. 】
After comforting the three little dinosaurs with different personalities, Zheng Yi slightly lowered his hood, and walked through the crowd without a trace.
He was a little puzzled.
If the event he expected happened, it shouldn't be such a luxurious scene, and there should be more security arrangements.
or……
Sensing the passing gaze from time to time, Zheng Yi scratched his head.
In other words, it is more of a secret job?
【Hey, Zheng Yi, are you sure it's here? 】
After tapping on the earphones he was using to pretend to be on a Bluetooth call, the direction of Zheng Yi's feet remained unchanged.
[I'm sure, the agreed place is here, look, it's right in front. 】
Responding to Yake's question, Zheng Yi looked towards a bar store on the right street ahead. The words "End of the Earth" hung on the tall neon signboard. According to the previous teacher, it seemed that the family was slow.
And the destination of Zheng Yi's trip is this slow bar - an alleyway behind the store.
Looking at it from a distance, Zheng Yi walked forward without stopping, and quickly walked past the "End of the Earth" and walked straight to the end of the entertainment street.
Like a passerby who happened to pass by this street, he was in a hurry.
——
[Is it really necessary to be so cautious?Anyway, even if you are followed and suspected, those people can't do anything to you, right? 】
[Xingzi, before you are sure whether it is the store's own eyeliner or a regular person we don't know, some troubles can be saved, and some things can't be lazy. 】
Relying on his unreasonable athletic ability, after leaving the entertainment street, he came back in an extraordinary way. Zheng Yi, who deliberately took off the outer navy blue sweater to reveal the dark red sweater inside, was already standing in front of the target bar. In the back alley.
Go to the main street to step on the spot first, on the one hand to create an alibi, and on the other hand to find out the truth and see if there are any special changes in Entertainment Street due to the incident.
For this reason, Zheng Yi specially wore two pieces of inside and outside when going out, and prepared two different styles of masks.
He's currently wearing a Suzie the Sheep pattern.
According to the old master, the incident happened in the depths of the back alley, about [-] meters away from the entertainment street. In addition, this area was originally rebuilt in the old city, and some infrastructure such as street lights or real-time monitoring have not been fully implemented. The pavement is updated, and the night looks quite deep.
It can be described as inaccessible.
This is a bad thing for Zheng Yi, but also a good thing.
The bad thing is that this means that it is almost impossible to get much meaningful information from the surveillance video.
The good thing is that if there is an investigation, they will not be easily exposed by the surveillance video.
Although Zheng Yi is good at fighting, he hasn't learned much solid investigation knowledge. Although he can rely on information and intuition to reason, he is not a person who is good at on-site investigation.
In this regard, after listening to Zheng Yi's story about what happened to him today and the corresponding conclusions he drew, Gold and Rose quickly recommended the person who is best at this kind of thing.
"Oh, it's unexpected that a weak woman waited in such a dark place for ten minutes, little brother."
Leaning on the old wall with some exposed red bricks, Fei Cui smiled and said with a sly face, "Keep a lonely woman waiting too long, but it's easy to get burned."
In other words, the Emerald A dream in front of me.

Chapter 9: Detective Emerald (X) Contemporary Chaplin (√)
After entering the alleyway for only a few dozen meters, there will be a feeling of gradually drifting away from the feasting and feasting behind you.
The splendor of neon lights and the hustle and bustle of human voices, mixed with some dim lights in the back alley, were gradually encroached and peeled off by the surrounding darkness.
Some of the old stone roads under the feet also staggered and climbed a layer of dark shadows, as if they only need to go in a few steps, and they will be wrapped in the darkness together with the noise.
The secluded and remote road ahead is like the mouth of some kind of evil beast, breathing out the fishy smell and malice imagined by the timid.
Standing in this alleyway that can accommodate up to three people walking side by side against the evening wind blowing through the alley, Zheng Yi squatted down and gently touched the cool and thin road surface.
80. The legacy of the [-]s at this time uses the mottled appearance and rough touch like Zheng Yi to explain the various things engraved by time, but for him, it is not the traces of the years that really make him value.
"This trace cannot be done with ordinary equipment, Miss Jade."
"Huh? Let me take a look."
Holding Zheng Yi's shoulder with one hand, Fei Cui poked her face out from behind him, lifting her pair of wine red half-rim glasses on the bridge of her nose.
The eyes under the lens shone with a clear light in the darkness of the alleyway, round and energetic like two finely carved jades of high quality.
Those eyes were different from the normal state, with thick purple eyes.
Zheng Yi subconsciously turned his head away from the emerald.
"Hey, the construction team that worked on the pavement back then was supposed to be in charge of people who paid great attention to construction quality. The stone road in this alley looks a little dilapidated, but the materials and craftsmanship used in the construction were quite solid."
He curled up his index finger and tapped the road in front of him with his knuckles.
"In other words, if you want to achieve this level, you need at least a few strong men holding hammers and making a lot of noise."
It is composed of several irregular potholes with a depth of about 30 centimeters as the center, with chapped cracks of varying degrees as the diffusion method, almost the same wide and thick traces that would cut off the entire roadway.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that there are few people here, this trace would give Zheng Yi the illusion that he is actually at the construction site, and this place is just the illusion that the road is being repaired.
This kind of mark is not difficult for Zheng Yi and Fei Cui to make, it is better to say that in their eyes, this kind of mark can actually be regarded as quite subtle environmental damage during the battle.
But if this trace is linked to the attack on a female teacher, it becomes difficult to explain with common sense.
"Let me see, from here..."
The fingers swam along the traces on the ground, and the emerald one also bent over and moved slowly.
From the middle of the alleyway, I moved a few steps forward, then backed up a few steps, and then leaned against the wall. After stopping for a while on the red brick wall that was in disrepair, I stopped suddenly. Turning around to face Zheng Yi, he pointed with one hand at a slightly higher edge of the wall a few steps behind Zheng Yi.
Fei Cui frowned suddenly, and after a moment of silence, she turned to Zheng Yi.
