Comprehensive strategy

Chapter 509 The world is not worth it
The sniper who shot in the dark last night died under Jin Xing's formation?

"Brother Qin, are you sure?" Su Mu asked.

"Not sure, so I want Xiaoxi to help confirm it." Qin Yang paused, and then said, "But it shouldn't be wrong, we found traces of formation techniques in his body."

The "we" here refers to Qin Yang himself and Liu Hanrou. Although the latter is a forensic doctor transferred from a criminal police officer, he still has a solid grasp of the relevant professional knowledge, not to mention judging whether a person died of Ember Star Array technique is not too difficult.

Generally speaking, once a case of the Law Enforcement Bureau involves a foreigner, it will be included in the confidential file to prevent someone from making a fuss and inciting the public's emotions to cause panic. These two days are in an extraordinary period, Qin Yang is not sure Is there any undercover sent by the Wilson family around me, so I can only keep the cause of the sniper's death a secret for the time being, and then call the vice principal to ask myself if this teacher knows an expert in formation techniques, Good to help the qualitative of this case.

After all, although he believed in Liu Hanrou unconditionally, some things still had to be done according to the rules.

For a corpse with a strange death method like this, at least two forensic experts must have the same identification results before the Law Enforcement Bureau can make a final judgment. He must be in trouble again.

Qin Yang's original intention was to ask Hu Laide for a trustworthy expert to play the role of forensic doctor, but the latter asked him to come directly to Luo Xiaoxi, saying that Su Mu, the younger sister, was a genius in this field, and the entire Sage City There should be no one who understands formation techniques better than her.

Qin Yang thought of the RV full of spiritual formations in the Liming Society, so he didn't doubt it, so he called Su Mu.

By the way, he also asked Xiao Liu to change Luo Xiaoxi's status as an auxiliary police officer in the Law Enforcement Bureau to an intern forensic doctor, and Liu Hanrou personally signed it.

However, Qin Yang is not a fool. Although he believes that Luo Xiaoxi has extraordinary talent in formation techniques, is it really as simple as good talent?

Luo Xiaoxi has beautiful silver hair, which is nothing in itself, but if the keyword "array" is added, the problem will be a bit bigger.

This old detective known as the number one detective in Sage City has a really keen sense of smell, and due to professional faults, Qin Yang habitually keeps half of his speech. He didn't tell Vice President Su Mu the exact words, but In an ambiguous way, it implied that Su Mu already knew Luo Xiaoxi's identity, and wanted to see the latter's reaction.

This temptation was purely subconscious without any malice, but Su Mu's slightly silent reaction undoubtedly confirmed his guess.

"Brother Qin, are you at the crime scene now?" Su Mu asked after pondering for a moment.

"Well, Kaisorna Hotel, 6503." Qin Yang said.

"Wait for us for 10 minutes, we'll pack up and go there," Su Mu said.

After hanging up the phone, Su Mu greeted Shana and the others, and then went outside the tent to find Luo Xiaoxi.

After the two returned to the villa, they changed their clothes and drove directly to the Kesolna Hotel.

This hotel is actually very close to the Forlante Villa area, and it only takes a few minutes to walk, but Su Mu thought about being prepared, so he drove the car. In case there is something urgent and needs to go to other places, it will be more convenient .

"Brother, has Director Qin discovered my identity?" Luo Xiaoxi was sitting in the co-pilot wearing a mask, her flirtatious red pupils were full of worry, "Will I affect the relationship between you two?" ?”

"Don't worry, this kind of thing will never happen." Su Mu smiled and stretched out his right hand, rubbing the girl's head, "Otherwise, why would I ask you to take off the colored contact lenses?"

In fact, Su Mu wasn't sure whether Qin Yang knew that Luo Xiaoxi was from Star Jin, but with the return of the Pope, he couldn't hide it for a few days, so he might as well admit it openly.

20 years ago, Qin Yang had conflicts with his closest companions because of aliens, and even missed his first love because of this, and he didn't let it go until not long ago. Today, 20 years later, Su Mu believes that he has experienced it. Among them, the sour Qin Yang will not repeat the same mistakes as before.

In 5 minutes, the two arrived at the top floor of the Kesolna Hotel.

The entire floor was cordoned off by the Law Enforcement Bureau, but there were only three people.

Qin Yang, Liu Hanrou, and Xiao Liu all stood guard outside the door.

"Brother Su, you are more punctual than I thought." Qin Yang looked at his watch and said.

"Punctuality and agility are necessary habits for successful people." Su Mu opened his mouth and bragged to himself, then smiled and nodded to the other two: "Sister Liu, Brother Liu."

"You should let little sister Xiaoxi wear sunglasses." Liu Hanrou said seriously.

"It doesn't matter, my Xiaoxi is so beautiful. Others just look at it and marvel at it. I don't have time to think about that... right, Xiaoxi?" Su Mu blinked at his sister.

Luo Xiaoxi didn't speak, and pinched her brother's waist with a blushing face!
In fact, although Su Mu's statement may be suspected of flattering, it is more of a fact.

Not to mention that this is a world that looks at faces, even if Luo Xiaoxi is average-looking, if she walks on the road and let others see her, she will basically not think in the direction of the Jinxing people—as long as Luo Xiaoxi doesn't actively use formation techniques.

After all, for the vast majority of people, the characteristic of the Jinxing people is waving their hands, not white hair and red pupils.

No, Xiao Liu just looked at them with a puzzled face, completely ignoring what Liu Hanrou and Su Mu were talking about.

Of course, Luo Xiaoxi's red pupils should not be exposed to the sight of too many people.

When the forest grows, there are all kinds of birds, and so do people. The Church of Mara has a population of one billion, and there will always be some people with more out-of-the-box and sharper thinking, especially those who are responsible for national security.

However, Su Mu already knew about the upcoming name change of Sage City, so he was not worried that there would be members of the Saints Council in Sage City. Moreover, it was during the competition, and there were fewer people on the street than usual. The reason why Luo Xiaoxi dared to go out without wearing colored contact lenses and sunglasses.

"Let's go, let's go to the house and do business."

Qin Yang glanced at Luo Xiaoxi, but pretended he hadn't seen anything, pushed open the door of the crime scene, and led everyone in.

Just as Su Mu thought, he missed it once 20 years ago, and now he won't make a second mistake.

The initial change in Qin Yang's attitude towards people of other races occurred during the two years when he was an intern police officer after joining the Law Enforcement Bureau.

During this period, Qin Yang saw too many unspoken political rules. He began to question the church and himself, and finally understood why the teacher said to serve the people instead of the church.

Qin Yang has always hated those corruptions very much, and when he really understood these shady things, he understood that the existence of these officials is the real benefit to this country compared to the aliens that Zhu Chunxia rescued at the beginning. threaten.

Later, it became clear that the regent had been dropped by a foreigner, which made Qin Yang feel a little better.

At least, this can prove that the darkness and stagnant development within the Church of Mara are caused by aliens secretly.

However, although the misunderstanding was resolved, Qin Yang's attitude towards the church could not be changed.

In the final analysis, it was because of the Pope's dereliction of duty and the cabinet's dereliction of duty. Otherwise, how could they have replaced so many officials in the church without finding any clues?

Changing the skin is indeed a bit of fantasy, but which of these high-ranking officials was not the best among their peers?
With their ingenuity, it is impossible not to see any clues.

The reason why that kind of situation happened in the end can only show that they have long been lost in the power and wealth brought by their status, and they only see interests in their eyes. Even if there are no aliens to fuel the flames, the corruption of the church will sooner or later matter.

Qin Yang was very disappointed with the church. Before joining the Law Enforcement Bureau, he never imagined that the church he devoted himself to defend would look like this, let alone that the law that he would abide by even if he did not hesitate to quarrel with the person he loved the most would be rejected by those so-called law enforcement officers. They trampled wantonly on the soles of their feet.

Looking at it now, Zhu Junxia's choice was the right one.

The human world is not worth it, so it's time to change the human world.

……

Entering 6503, Luo Xiaoxi immediately wrinkled her nose, "It smells so strange."

"It looks like something was burnt," Su Mu said.

This smell is actually very light, it should have dissipated a lot due to the circulation of the air, if it is not a cultivator with particularly keen five senses, it is difficult to smell it.

Su Mu looked around, but did not find any signs of burning.

"This man's name is Luo Jinlong, 47 years old, a third-level cultivator, a former member of the Ross family, and now a black householder." Qin Yang went around the table and went to the corpse, "When the city of Ross was destroyed, this guy happened to be in a different place. I was doing a bounty mission in the world, I was lucky enough to escape, and I should have been recalled by Luo Song, and I have been living in Shengkai City."

"At two o'clock in the afternoon the day before yesterday, Luo Jinlong came to Shengzhe City suddenly and stayed at the Casolna Hotel. Instead of using his ID card, he gave a big tip to the front desk waiter. During this period, he I stayed in the house all the time, never left the room, and even drank water and ate food by myself in the house.”

Luo Jinlong died by the window, holding the Necromancer sniper rifle in his hand. On the window sill was a box of leftover self-heating instant meals, three empty mineral water bottles, and an ashtray full of cigarette butts.

Su Mu noticed Luo Jinlong's facial expression. The latter's pupils were dilated and he looked terrified, while his finger was still on the trigger. It seemed that he was aiming seriously at that time, but suddenly saw something unbelievable.

"By the time our people found this place, the trigger of the sniper rifle had already been pulled halfway." Liu Hanrou said, "In order to avoid misfire, I moved his finger a little bit away during the inspection."

It can be seen from this that Luo Jinlong had subconsciously chosen to shoot at that time, but the opponent's shot was so fast that it ended his life in an instant, so that he only pulled the trigger halfway, and he had no strength to continue. The expression on Luo Jinlong's face remained at the moment of being frightened.

"There was something wrong with our judgment that day." Qin Yang said, "He is not a professional killer, or in other words, his master gave him a death order and the assassination must be successful, so he should have been preparing to kill The second shot was only due to the appearance of the ember star master, this shot was not fired."

It seemed that Qin Yang was not only sure that the murderer who killed Luo Jinlong was a Jinxing person, but also that this Jinxing person was a master.

"The time we received the alarm call last night was 36:36, and the activity report of the corpse showed that Luo Jinlong's death time was also at 1:[-]." Liu Hanrou said, "Our instruments have been updated once. The error in determining the time of death will not exceed [-] minute."

No more than 1 minute?

"He is indeed a master." Su Mu nodded.

If it is not silence, it means that the opponent and Luo Jinlong are not in the same group, and the former can find Luo Jinlong's location with the sound of gunfire in just one minute, and kill him instantly, which at least has a knight-level cultivation. .

This also coincided with Luo Jinlong's frightened expression.

He was standing by the window, aiming at the Forlante villa area. What could make him feel frightened?
It couldn't be because he saw Su Mu holding Zhao Guoguo to avoid his own bullet, right?

At that time, Qin Yang gave an order to have someone check the monitoring of the Casolna Hotel, but today Qin Yang didn't mention it, which proved that there was nothing useful in the monitoring, that is to say, the murderer was very It may have appeared directly in front of Luo Jinlong—outside the window on the 65th floor!

"I'm curious, Senior Sister Liu, how did you determine that the murderer was from the Ember Star?" Su Mu asked.

Luo Jinlong's body was intact, with no wounds or blood stains on his body. The scene of the crime had obviously never been touched, so here comes the question - is there no need for an autopsy now that the Law Enforcement Bureau is doing an autopsy?
"Brother Su, I know what you're thinking." Liu Hanrou smiled and glanced at Luo Xiaoxi who was silent.

There is a good sister from Ember Star, of course Su Mu will favor the other party appropriately, which is understandable and natural, but since she dared to make such a judgment, she naturally has a good reason.

"Generally speaking, there are only two situations in which a cultivator will die instantly. One is when the heart bursts, and the other is when the brain receives a devastating blow." Liu Hanrou said, "I have detected it with spiritual power, Luo Jinlong's heart There is no problem with the part, but his head... Su Xuedi, why don't you feel it yourself?"

Hearing this, Su Mu squatted down, his palms shimmered, and he gently covered Luo Jinlong's forehead.

A second later, he knew what was going on with the burning smell in the room.

Luo Jinlong's head was obviously empty.

And the empty place, according to Su Mu's understanding of the human body's structure, should be...brain.

That murderer directly evaporated Luo Jinlong's brains!
"Senior Liu, some of the more powerful fire attribute melee skills on Blue Star should be able to achieve this effect, right?" Su Mu stood up, clapped his hands and said.

The reason why it is said to be melee rather than long-range is because there is no burn mark on Luo Jinlong's head, which means that the violent fire spirit power first invaded Luo Jinlong's head before it began to show its power, which is commonly known as inner strength.

"You're right, there is indeed such a possibility, but Su Xuedi, the traces of spiritual power left in Luo Jinlong's head are very similar to the firearms of our Law Enforcement Bureau." Liu Hanrou thought for a while, and reported a value: "The degree of similarity At least 90%."

"I understand." Su Mu sighed softly.

The firearms of the Law Enforcement Bureau also belong to the category of combat equipment, and the core technology is the spirit array.

The gun Liu Hanrou mentioned should be a blasting gun that can produce fireball effects.

Su Mu didn't use the gun very much, so he didn't feel familiar with it, but Liu Hanrou obviously didn't need to lie to him about this kind of thing.

Injecting the spirit array into someone else's body is a method that only Ember Xing has.

"Xiaoxi, can you confirm?" Qin Yang asked.

"Brother Qin, will you catch him?" Luo Xiaoxi asked back, staring at Qin Yang nervously.

In fact, the moment she approached the corpse, she sensed the spiritual power fluctuation of the formation.

Liu Hanrou's judgment was not wrong.

Su Mu has been trying his best to avoid linking this matter with Jin Xing, that is, taking into account the question Luo Xiaoxi asked.

Obviously, the murderer who killed Luo Jinlong was actually on the side of the Dawn Society.

However, according to the law of the church, before the suspect is convicted, killing him is equivalent to a crime except for those who have immediate law enforcement powers. The law enforcement bureau must pursue the criminal responsibility of the murderer according to law.

This will undoubtedly make it very difficult for Qin Yang.

After all, there are still so many pairs of eyes watching in the Enforcement Bureau.

"Now I understand why the teacher asked you to come here." Qin Yang paused and said, "I will go through the process according to the regulations of the Law Enforcement Bureau. If there is no accident, the search warrant will be taken down tomorrow morning. You guys If you can contact him, let him leave Sage City as soon as possible, and don't come back within two months."

If this happened a few days ago, Qin Yang might just turn a blind eye and pass it by, just like Su Mu killed the female student who nearly poisoned Hoshino Junxia to death, but now, the Pope is back , He had to make some appearances about many things, otherwise, if the Pope finds an opportunity to step down as the bureau chief, it will greatly affect the teacher's plan.

"To be honest, I still like the unrestrained life of the past." Su Mu said softly, "Everything needs to be done carefully now, and the feeling of walking on thin ice is really uncomfortable."

Qin Yang patted Su Mu on the shoulder: "After this test, we will be free."

In this world, everyone lives within various rules and regulations, and there are hidden unspoken rules everywhere. Even Qin Yang and Su Mu are doing the same things today.

They think they are right, but under the law, they are wrong, so even if they have a clear conscience, they have to cover up their actions like thieves.

This is really a frustrating thing.

However, as Qin Yang said, as long as he gets through this test, everything will be fine.

Dawn City can formulate its own laws, making the distinction between good and evil match everyone's conscience, so that all people with good intentions, regardless of race, can gain true freedom.

"Yangyang, don't forget what you said earlier." Liu Hanrou blinked, "After this matter is over, we will go on our honeymoon."

"That's called traveling." Qin Yang corrected, but said, "Don't worry, I won't go back on what I promised."

"Don't call it Liming City at all." Su Mu said suddenly, "Change the name to Liberty City, so that the church will not use the Liming Society to make a fuss."

"That's a good name!" Qin Yang's eyes brightened slightly. "It's not Liming City, but Liberty City. This city is not our city, but a city where all people who yearn for freedom and peace live together!"

Not our city?
The Director of the Law Enforcement Bureau seemed to regard himself as a member of the Dawn Society.

From this point, it can be seen that neither Qin Yang nor Su Mu actually have any ambitions.

"Why do I feel that you two are a little secondary?" Liu Hanrou joked, "It's not us who are wrong, but this world?"

"You watch less anime in the future." Qin Yang said disgustedly.

Su Mu shook his head with a smile, and said, "Brother Qin, you just said to travel, have you considered where to go?"

"Minghuang Desert!" Before Qin Yang could speak, Liu Hanrou replied without hesitation.

"Singing Desert??" Su Mu was stunned, and then Qin Yang looked at him with a more exciting expression, "Brother Qin, are you sure you want to go to Minghuang Desert?"

That's the place where Hoshino Junka's mother, my mother-in-law, and your first love, Auntie Takejunka, live. Are you sure Liu-senpai will be jealous?
Su Mu thinks Qin Yang is too courageous?

Moreover, how can anyone travel to the restricted area outside the law?

Is that a vacation, or to fight monsters?
However, after such a stroke, Su Mu realized that the seniority of his group of people seemed to be completely messed up.

Qin Yang is his elder brother, Hoshinoho is Qin Yang's brother, and Hoshino Junxia is Hoshinoho's daughter...

Ah this...

When I see Xingyehuo in the future, should I call him brother or father-in-law?
And the task in the system...

Thinking of this, Su Mu's complexion gradually became weird.

Qin Yang didn't notice the change in Su Mu's expression, he sighed: "It's not that I want to go to Minghuang Desert..."

"I want to go." Liu Hanrou said with a sly look, "Su Xuedi, you don't think I just brought up this topic by accident, do you?"

"Otherwise?" Su Mu asked inexplicably.

"I told you this on purpose." The big sister of the forensic doctor blinked her eyes, "I heard from your little girlfriends that after the competition, you will go to the Minghuang Desert to help Chunxia find her parents, and train herself by the way. With your own strength, I think you can actually take a little extra and bring Yangyang and me with you."

As he said that, Liu Hanrou patted Qin Yang's new-style gun, "Don't worry, we promise not to hold you back."

Su Mu couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it: "Senior Liu, it's not a matter of delaying or not, but a matter of whether Brother Qin is willing to go or not."

"Go, why not go?" As soon as Su Mu finished speaking, Qin Yang gave an unexpected answer.

The former No. 45 police detective of Sage City raised his head slightly and looked out the window at a [-]° angle with deep and long eyes.

"Some things have to be done, don't they?"
