At six in the morning, City W was still sleeping, the sky had just dawned, and there was still a chill in the air that hadn't dissipated.The streets and old alleys that were not illuminated by street lights were still pitch black, and the naked eye could only vaguely see the outlines of things but could not tell what they were.

In the distance, a garbage truck was driving towards the city. The lights on the front of the car seemed to be moldy in the fog, with a furry halo.The driver exhaled a puff of smoke, and drove the car carelessly to the side of the road.The trash can reflected in the rearview mirror was not placed as usual, but was lying there horizontally.He cursed impatiently in a low voice, got out of the car to check the situation, thinking that another waste picker had overturned the trash can and failed to lift it up.Using the headlights, he took out his broom and cleaned up the scattered garbage.The wind from the alley was blowing with a strong smell of alcohol, and from the corner of the eye, I saw a figure lying at the entrance of the alley, half of his body was buried in the shadow and the other half was exposed in the light, and the empty wine bottle was lying on the ground at his feet.

"Hey, brother. Are you okay, are you still up?" He walked towards the man, while mocking in his heart: Another drunk!Lying here until six in the morning, this brother probably played all night.

But after he got closer, he realized that things were not that simple.I couldn't see clearly from a distance just now, but after getting closer, I could see clearly that this person was clearly dressed as a tramp, and he didn't look like he had money to drink.What's more, he didn't respond to his loud voice just now.Take a closer look, there are dark traces of different ranges on the walls and the ground of the alley... This person, don't die here.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a chill down his back, and wanted to take a puff of cigarette to calm down, but the burnt cigarette burned his fingers.At this time, he finally reacted, hurriedly took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and called the police.

"Dingling, ringing, ringing." The phone on the desk made a rapid sound, as if if it continued to ring like this, the phone would jump up like the lid of a kettle.

"Hello." Nico stepped forward and tentatively greeted the other side.

A hurried male voice came from the other end of the phone: "Nico, I'm Chen Xiaoyong. A male body was found on the Golden Avenue in the old town. If you're okay, can you come over?"

"Okay, got it." Nico hung up the phone, and another light screen popped up on the wristband, on which the character settings of Nico and Conan were written in detail.After browsing through the information, Nico raised his head and said to Conan, "It turns out that we will receive information about our characters in the plot after the plot begins."

"It looks like this." Conan walked towards this side, "But is there only one copy of character information? Or only one player in a team can receive system messages."

"Your watch should also be able to be used as a smart ID bracelet." Nico looked at the watch on Conan's left hand, "Did you hear the system's binding prompt when I entered the story world?"

"Hmm." Conan raised his hand, carefully fiddling with the multifunctional watch produced by Dr. Ali, trying to figure out how to use the new functions.

"Smart games like this must have a smart ID bracelet to play. If the player does not have a bracelet, the game will automatically equip the player with one. Most people have a bracelet, but you can also set it according to your own preferences. Different shapes. Conan, yours should be automatically bound to the watch by default." Nico explained to Conan while flipping through the desk.

Just when Conan was about to ask how to get to the scene of the crime, he turned around and saw Nico taking out a key from the desk.

"I found it." Nico took out the car keys in the drawer, walked to Conan's side, and said, "Let's go, the first location of the novice guide is the scene of the crime, let's go there first. Like this kind of game, usually for Players provide some props that match the character’s identity setting. But sometimes, these props need to be found by themselves.”

"The game system is surprisingly considerate." Conan nodded and followed Niko's footsteps.

"It's like this most of the time." Niko explained to Conan the content of the 23rd century game system, and the two drove to the scene of the crime.

When the two of Nico arrived at the scene of the crime, the police had already dealt with the scene.Outside the dilapidated alley, an open space has been surrounded by a yellow cordon, and there are police officers all around to maintain order, to prevent the residents here from destroying the scene, and to prevent people from taking photos and uploading them on the Internet, causing panic.But even this can't stop human curiosity. Even if they can't watch it up close, some people still gather around the cordon, stretching their necks to join in the fun.

"Mr. Nico, you are finally here." Seeing Nico approaching, a young police officer approached enthusiastically and greeted, "Officer Chen has gone back because of something in the bureau, and he asked me to stay here to assist You, if there is anything I can help, you can come to me. My name is Zheng Sirui, you can call me Xiao Zheng."

"Thank you. Besides, I'm only 20 years old." Nico felt a little embarrassed when Officer Xiao Zheng said you, after all, his age was still very young even in the 21st century.

"Ah, I'm sorry. Because it's the first time I see you, I feel a little excited." Zheng Sirui scratched his head in embarrassment, showing a shy smile.

"It's okay, just call me Nico." Nico nodded at him, and walked quickly towards the corpse, preventing more embarrassing scenes from happening.Should it be said that it is the first stage for beginners? The player character is so easy to use, basically there will be no obstacles in the whole game.But fortunately, it is in the game world, otherwise, the question of how to bring Conan to investigate the case would have been enough to cause him a headache.

Nico stopped beside the corpse, looking at the overall environment of the crime scene.The whole alley is actually not long, but fortunately it is wide enough that an adult's body can almost lie horizontally in the alley without curling up.The other end of the alley seems to be a dilapidated housing area leading to the west of the city. The houses are all dilapidated, just like this alley.The location where the body was located was not clean, there was a lot of sand on the ground.Judging from the messy situation on the ground, someone should have had a physical conflict here.There was a large dark red bloodstain on the wall near the corpse. It should be due to hitting the wall and causing the wound on the forehead of the corpse, but it was not the cause of death. The specific results have to wait for the report of the forensic medical department after the autopsy.

While Nico was looking at the environment of the crime scene, Conan started to look at the corpse first.

The corpse was male, lying prone on the ground.Judging from his messy attire, he should be a homeless man living in the vicinity. Judging from the dirt on his face, which is so dirty that even the facial features cannot be seen clearly, it should not be artificially dressed after death.However, due to the excessive mess, it is basically impossible to determine the approximate age of the deceased.There were several empty wine bottles lying beside the deceased, one of which was even broken, the glass shards were all over the floor, and some were still stained with blood.The deceased may have had disputes with others during his lifetime.The corpse also exudes a strong smell of alcohol. It is not sure whether it was drunk before death or artificially created the illusion of drunkenness at the scene of the crime after death.From the current point of view, there are no obvious scars on the body other than the wound on the forehead, but even if there are, it may not be obvious. The corpse is too dirty, and there is very little effective information that can be observed. The specifics depend on the police and Over there forensics.

After a period of time, it was basically confirmed that there was no effective information on the scene, and the two planned to start with the police.After all, it is always easier to get news through official channels.
