Dragon's Companion

Both of them were a little dazed looking at the new message, Jiang Jiyao and Luo An exchanged glances, and took input from the communicator.

[Grandpa, I have nothing to eat.Is there something wrong? 】

It felt like there was something in the words.

Seeing the reply from the Elf King, he immediately knew that it must have been sent by Jiang Jiyao, and saw that he asked what was the matter.Can't help being slightly taken aback, then went back to look at the message he sent just now.

Isn't it just to let him eat more of what he wants? It's normal for elders to care about younger generations. Why is he suspicious?

The Elf King read it word by word, and felt that there was no problem, so he hurriedly called Asheng over: "Do you think there is something wrong with my sentence?"

Asheng was silent for a while after watching it, and then glanced at the Elf King again: "It's kind of like, it's for people who are about to die."

"..." The Elf King was startled, and quickly snatched the communicator. Just now he firmly believed that the message he sent was fine, but now he has begun to waver.

After all, he seldom sends such caring text messages to others. If there is something to do, he can just go with his things, and there is no need to make false claims here.

Sighing and sitting on the sofa holding the communicator, he thought for a long time before holding back a line of words.

[It's okay, don't think too much.Afterwards, Xiaoan gave birth to our great-grandson, and you will take care of both children. If you don’t eat more, how can you take care of them! 】

Fortunately, Jiang Jiyao didn't ask any more questions this time.

[Don't worry, grandpa, I will definitely take good care of them.You also take care of your health, we will go back when we are free after a while. 】

Seeing this sentence, the Elf King's fingertips hanging on it couldn't fall down for a long time.

I don't even have the energy to go back.

A Sheng next to him heard the voice, and couldn't help but stare when he looked over, and quickly handed over a tissue: "Your Majesty."

The Elf King leaned on the sofa and sighed, took the paper towel and wiped it: "When you are old, you cry like a child. It's okay, it will be fine in a while."

Ah Sheng looked at the tears in the corner of his eyes: "Is there something wrong?"

The lifespan of the elves is longer than that of the orcs, and His Majesty is the longest-lived of the elves. He is used to seeing too many life and death, and his emotions are not as sensitive as ordinary people.

Except when he first heard the news of Gabriel's death, he had never seen His Majesty like this.

"No."

The Elf King suddenly said: "By the way, an announcement will be made tomorrow that the Infinity Forest will be completely closed from next week, and the ancestor worship ceremony will be held. No one will be allowed to enter or leave."

The ancestor worship ceremony will be held next week, which seems to be much earlier than in previous years.However, there is no rule on which month or day it must be, and it is understandable to advance and postpone.

Ah Sheng: "Then do you want Xiaoan and the others to come back?"

The Elf King waved his hand: "It's not good for the fetus to be noisy, and they are busy with work, so don't let the children run back and forth."

On Monday, Shen Du officially asked Luo An to start independent experiments. He took the files from Luo An and asked, "Which case do you want to choose?"

Luo An: "I want to re-examine the Duke's body."

Although he had a premonition, when he really heard what Luo An said, Shen Du couldn't help but feel a little complicated, as if he saw himself back then.

"I know you think this case is strange, but now the only insider has committed suicide, and there are no other valuable clues for the time being. In fact, Section Chief Liu has not given up. The body has been transferred back to the mansion for burial last night. If it is announced that the murderer is someone else, it will definitely cause an uproar, and if the murderer is still not found in the end, or the case does not progress in a short time, we will not be able to explain to the family."

If it is an ordinary person, it may be okay to say that the one who was killed this time was the Duke, an important member of the royal family, and it was a special A-level case.

Once the body is returned for retrial, it is bound to be pressured by all walks of life.

He didn't want to give up either, but this matter can't be done with enthusiasm alone, and other objective factors must also be considered.

Seeing Shen Du persuading him earnestly, Luo An also knew that he was doing it for his own good, but under the current situation, if the body is not returned immediately, many evidences will be further destroyed after the burial.

It was even more difficult to solve the case that day.

What's more...

Luo An asked suddenly: "Brother Shen, why do you think 9 is written on that stone?"

Shen Du also noticed this problem yesterday, now hearing Luo An's words, he knew that he already had a guess.

Luo An said directly: "Because he wants to kill more than one person."

"..."

As soon as the words were finished, the overhead lights suddenly went out, and at this moment there was a frantic banging on the door of the cold storage.In the dark, it sounds like a gust of rain hitting the door panel, echoing endlessly in the empty underground cold storage.

Shen Du held Luo An's hand, and whispered: "Don't make any noise."

Luo An calmly planned to take out his bow and hit the door, when Yi Wenjie's voice came from outside the door: "Section Chief Shen! Luo An! Are you inside!"

Hearing that it was a colleague, Shen Du responded: "Wait a moment."

Then he touched a chair, asked Luo An to sit first, and went over there to open the door by himself.

Soon the door opened with a creak, and Yi Wenjie gasped and said, "The power and communication network of the entire judicial building has been attacked, and the backup circuit is being activated over there! Wait for a while, it should be It will be fixed in a moment."

Shen Du was a little strange: "The first floor of the Ministry of Justice is the Imperial Information Security Center. Even the Ministry of Justice can be attacked. This defense is too weak."

"You don't know, this is the self-protection method of the information mastermind. A spy just invaded the core mastermind of the Ministry of Justice. After trying to enter the wrong password, the mastermind disconnected, and then placed a replica virus in the following complex brains. , trying to copy the information of the main brain, and immediately cut off all power and communication networks automatically after being detected by the main brain, and entered a fully closed mode."

Sure enough, this time the power went out for a few minutes, and then reconnected, but the network is still suspended and needs to be used later.

Shen Du looked back and saw Luo An leaning on his head, leaning on the table with his brows furrowed, and hurried over to support him: "Luo An, what's the matter, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"No." Luo An pinched his forehead and rubbed it: "I had a migraine just now, it's an old problem."

I lived in that world for decades before, and only encountered it twice. This time, I just came to this world less than a year ago, and it has happened three times.

And it gets heavier every time.

His sixth sense is warning of something.

……

The network was interrupted, and some devices could not be connected, and the experiment could not be done. The three chatted in the laboratory.

Yi Wenjie even talked about whether Luo An could introduce him to an elf as a partner.

The elves' girls are so pretty!

Seeing him blushing shyly when he mentioned the elves who came to the wedding that day, Luo An couldn't help being a little curious: "Who are you looking at?"

Yi Wenjie was a little embarrassed to say that, after being urged by Luo An for a long time, he whispered: "Actually, they are all pretty, I think that girl with purple hair is special."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head shyly.

"..." Purple hair, it should be Gaia.

Luo An was silent for a moment: "Well, she is quite special, but I'm afraid you can't handle it."

Hearing what Luo An said, Yi Wenjie thought he was deliberately testing him, so he patted his chest: "Don't worry, girls are for pampering! You can only introduce me, and I will definitely do my best to satisfy all her requests! "

Seeing how confident he was, Luo An said: "She is a shopaholic, and her monthly credit card overdraft is over six figures, and she still owes tens of millions. Do you want to pay it for her?"

The person who raised his neck like a fighting cock just now, when he heard that he still owed tens of millions, immediately lowered his head like a flower stem that has been drained of water.

After a while, she raised her head again: "Actually, that beauty with light blue hair has more temperament! She looked so elegant and quiet in the blue dress that day, she is like a fairy!"

"What about her, does she have a partner?"

"..." The target moved a little too quickly.

All in green, it must be Ngawang Yi.

But Luo An had to pour cold water on her again: "She probably won't do either, she's an unmarriageist, and her younger brother is a sister-controller. If you want to pursue her, you have to pass her brother's test first."

Yi Wenjie scratched his head dejectedly when he didn't expect two of them to fail.

Who else is there?

It suddenly occurred to me that there was a blonde girl in a small suit at the end of the line that day, who looked at him and smiled at him.At first glance, I feel very cheerful. If they are together in the future, they must have a common language.

Thinking of this, I couldn't wait to ask Luo An immediately: "What about that blonde girl, isn't she dating?"

Blonde girl?

Luo An was taken aback for a moment, but this time the corner of his mouth curled up: "No."

Yi Wenjie hurriedly asked again: "Then is her credit card overdrawn?"

Luo An shook his head: "Impenetrable."

"Then she is not an unmarriageist!"

Luo An smiled: "No."

Yi Wenjie was completely dumbfounded: "Hahaha! I knew we were destined. Then what's her name, can we meet some other day?"

Luo An smiled: "He is the younger brother of the green-haired girl you asked just now, Jigu. I want to know him, okay, I will introduce you next time."

"..."

Yi Wenjie: "I, I suddenly feel that being single is fine."

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the network was back to normal.

The three hurriedly checked the samples in the freezer for signs of damage during the power outage.

"1 to 6 groups are normal!"

"7 to 12 groups are normal!"

Luo An put two rows of check marks on the record book in his hand, and replied: "Groups 13 to 24 are also normal."

Today was a whole morning wasted, and when he got off work in the evening, Luo An was still writing the application for returning the Duke's body.

When Shen Du was changing clothes, he saw what he wrote next to him, hesitated for a while, put his coat on the back of the chair, and sat opposite.

Luo An looked up: "Brother Shen, you go first."

Shen Du took out a pen from the pen holder: "Who will sign the application after I leave."

Luo An smiled and said, "It's called the Minister's signature."

Hearing what he said, Shen Du was taken aback for a moment, then laughed: "You really dare."

The application must be signed and stamped by the chief of the section to take effect. Of course, the eldest prince has more power, but such trivial matters generally don't bother him.

At that time, he agreed to finalize the case first and send the body back to the public relations. Shen Du was also worried that if he insisted on his own opinion, it would implicate the entire judicial department.

But today, when he heard Luo An's deduction about the number 9, his uneasy premonition became more and more intense. Even if he took a gamble, it was better than regretting it when the case happened again later.

At this time, a figure appeared at the door, and the two turned their heads to see Jiang Jiyao standing at the door, their eyes met, and they raised their hands to knock on the door.

Luo An said directly: "It's not convenient, you are not allowed to enter."

"..."

Jiang Jiyao really stood at the door without going in.

Sitting next to him, Shen Du felt that the two of them were looking at each other, their eyes were stretched out through the air, and he was like a single dog about to be entangled in the silk.

He got up with his clothes and looked at Luo An: "Let the minister sign it for you, I'll go first."

"Bye~"

After Shen Du left, there were only two people left in the office. Luo An, who was sitting upright just now, turned into a boneless mollusk in an instant when Jiang Jiyao came over, leaning all his weight on Jiang Jiyao. body.

"Honey, have I gained weight?"

After finishing speaking, he looked at his abdomen and immediately denied: "It's not that I'm heavy, it's that the egg yolk is heavy. You ate all the delicious food from your father, didn't you?"

As he said that, he went to pull Jiang Jiyao's hand on his stomach, and the egg yolk, which hadn't moved just now, danced a laser dance in an instant. If he opened his clothes, he should be able to see a round egg jumping around.

Luo An was tickled by this touch, and wanted to laugh out loud for no reason, maybe it was a psychological effect, but his whole mood was much happier.

He poked the egg yolk: "I really know how to watch people order dishes. Your Yao father will have fun when he touches you, and I won't even roll when I touch you."

Jiang Jiyao looked at him and pouted, and explained: "There is no consciousness in the embryonic stage, but the mutual induction of mental power. If you have mental power, it will respond to you."

"Is that so?"

It turned out that the egg yolk was misunderstood.

Luo An lightly touched the place where he poked just now a few times, indicating that his father was at fault and should not have poked you just now.

Now that the skin has just hardened, what if there is a pit on the egg that is born.

Not round at all, turned into an ugly egg.

Luo An picked up the application that he wrote just now and showed it to Jiang Jiyao: "See if there is anything else that needs to be added."

Just as Jiang Jiyao stretched out his hand to pick it up, he took it away and spread it on the table: "Forget it, there's no need to add it, as long as you sign it, who would dare to ask me to add it."

"..." Jiang Jiyao picked up a pen and signed below, but he still read it.

Luo An leaned in his arms and narrowed his eyes: "The words are all wrapped up, and you are afraid that I will cheat you."

Jiang Jiyao: "I saw a typo."

Hearing this, Luo An suddenly opened his eyes and looked over, with an expression on his face that I could still make such low-level mistakes.

Jiang Jiyao: "Just in case."

Seeing that Jiang Jiyao was really reading word by word, Luo An was playing with a signature pen in his hand, and his eyes were fixed on his side face.

Can't help but feel a little emotional.

It seems that I have been like this since I was a student. I always have a kind of self-confidence.

Even if there was still time, it was basically wasted by him in a daze.

Fortunately, his error rate is basically very low, so he has also created this kind of character that likes to stick to his own opinion, and he is never afraid of failure due to his mistakes.

But Jiang Jiyao was the opposite, with a very low error rate, almost none.However, he maintains an objective attitude towards everything, and never feels that his decision-making must be correct, and he will carefully confirm everything he is sure of.

The conceit that men are accustomed to can't be found in him at all.

After Jiang Jiyao finished reading it, he spread the application form on the table. Luo An just wanted to ask if he would accompany you to get the seal, but Jiang Jiyao put his hand on the seal and pressed it down. Suddenly, two lines appeared on the white paper. The pattern of coiled dragons connected end to end.

Luo An froze for a moment, grabbed his index finger and looked at it.

Clean and clean, nothing.

Jiang Jiyao: "This kind of paper has an electronic interlayer in the middle, which can be used for fingerprint recognition. Sometimes I don't have a seal, but I can also use this method to stamp."

Luo An: "It's so amazing, can all the papers from the Ministry of Justice be used?"

Jiang Jiyao: "Almost."

"Hey." Luo An grabbed Jiang Jiyao's hand and looked at him slyly: "Then someday I will type out a fund allocation statement myself and stamp it with your hand while you are asleep, then I can embezzle public funds." ?”

Seeing his bright eyes and his eager expression, Jiang Jiyao smiled: "The Ministry of Justice doesn't have much money at all. If you embezzle public funds, you have to go to the Ministry of Finance. Should you go? I can issue a transfer letter for you."

Luo An narrowed his eyes: "Okay, brother Yao, your sense of humor has greatly improved after being with me for a long time. Come on, you won't have to go to work in the future, and I will use the embezzled money to support you and the egg yolk."

The two were not talking nonsense, when Jiang Jiyao's communicator suddenly rang.

There is still business this late.

After Jiang Jiyao picked it up, his eyebrows frowned a little bit, and he looked at Luo An who was beside him.

"Ok, I know."

When the communication was hung up, Jiang Jiyao stood up and said to Luo An: "Notify Yi Wenjie and Shen Du to come, you should go home first."

Luo An: "There's another case? Forensic inspectors are on the spot, so why call them?" Besides, Brother Shen just got off work.

He didn't listen to the minister's instructions while he was talking, he changed his clothes and went inside to get tools, but before the two of them could leave the door, Jiang Jiyao's communicator rang again.

The other party should have been shocked this time, even if the hands-free was not turned on, the voice was as loud as if it was being played outside.

"Your Highness! Not one, but five!"

At this moment, all the law inspectors of the law enforcement department were called over in the middle of the night. When Liu Xianyi came, the briquettes were still sleeping soundly on her back. She only found out when she arrived at the scene that she brought the cub here.

Pull it off quickly and stuff it into the backpack, leaving a little space for ventilation through the zipper.

Simple and rude, completely treating Zai Zai as a plush toy.

Then handed the backpack to Jiang Chen: "Let's go in later, let me look at it for a while."

Looking at the cubs in the backpack that kept jumping up and down, making pitiful sounds from time to time, Jiang Chen's face also tightened. He is an unmarried person and has never had any experience in taking care of cubs.

But when he looked up, Liu Xianyi had already changed into his work clothes in a hurry, and was about to enter the scene, so he hurriedly shouted: "Why bring it!"

Liu Xianyi turned his back to him and waved: "It's fine if you don't die!"

"..."

Are you sure this is your mother?

After completing the on-site investigation, the five remains were transported back to the laboratory of the Ministry of Justice for further dissection and observation.

Five bodies, five different crime scenes.

The first person was held in a bathtub and drowned.Male, former military general, 221 years old.

The second person was hanged from the beam of the house.Female, Marchioness 182 years old.

The third person died of cerebral hemorrhage after being hit hard with a hammer.Male, Earl 201 years old.

The fourth person died of massive bleeding after cutting his throat.Male, civilian 190 years old.

The death of the fifth person by taking poison is more like suicide.Male, Minister of Parliament, 233 years old.

Compared with the skinning case, the way these five people were killed was much simpler.There are no creepy tricks, it seems to be just a simple death.

但是所有人的尸体边，按照死亡时间的前后，依次写着：8、7、6、5、4

It's like counting down.

Moreover, the ages of these people who died were also very close, they were all middle-aged men and women, four of them were important members of the royal family, and there were five cases, even if the last one was suicide, there were still three special A-level cases.

The duke's case hadn't been found out before, so there are so many cases here, it's really a wave of unrest and another wave.

Liu Xianyi: "Same as last time, it happened when there was no monitoring after the power outage, and the number 9 found at the scene of the Duke case has now been matched one by one. That servant is definitely not the real murderer."

Yi Wenjie flipped through the photos at the scene, and hissed: "Let's not talk about the first few, but the minister of the parliament who was killed in the end has always had a good reputation in the aristocratic circle and political power, and is quite popular with the people. The judicial It was his proposal to elevate the ministry to an authority with the same status as the royal family. How could such a righteous and promising person suffer such a disaster for no reason?"

It is estimated that as soon as the news of his death comes out, it will definitely cause an uproar in all walks of life.

Shen Du: "He should have committed suicide, there were no traces of fighting on his body, and his expression was very peaceful when he left. But since he committed suicide, why is there a number 4 around him?"

This means that when he committed suicide, the murderer must have been present.

What was it that made him walk so peacefully in front of a murderer.

For a while, everyone started talking...

Luo An: "Compared to this, when do you think 3 will happen?"

Without a word, the atmosphere in the entire carriage fell into dead silence instantly.

Yes, it has been less than 36 hours since the Duke case happened.According to the murderer's countdown, at least three more people will die.

Although the main task of their forensic inspection department is to conduct autopsy and test reports, and the criminal investigation department mainly relies on the criminal investigation department to solve the case, but the case has not progressed for a long time, and more people have died because of this, and they feel uncomfortable.

In another car, Jiang Jiyao explained to Jiang Chen: "Go back and contact the royal family to make an announcement. All the nobles have stepped up precautions in the near future. You must close the doors and windows at night, and report any suspicious traces immediately."

"Yes." Jiang Chen nodded.

In fact, this kind of thing only needs to be sent by the eldest prince to the Dragon Emperor. The process from the system is quite cumbersome.

However, His Highness has always handled affairs according to the rules. What is the prescribed process? He has never been special because of his status.

And since what happened at the wedding, it seems that the First Prince hasn't contacted the Dragon Emperor for a long time.

At this moment, suddenly a car was driving rapidly behind. After passing their car, a brake suddenly blocked the front.

The door opened, and a man came down and waved at them.

Jiang Chen zoomed in on the visual screen and found that it was the second prince.

The car was parked aside, Jiang Jiyao lowered the window: "Why are you here?"

Jiang Jihai smiled: "I have been lying in this hospital for several months, and they are finally willing to discharge me. I just wanted to drive for a stroll, but I saw your car here unexpectedly."

Then he saw that Jiang Jiyao and Jiang Chen were wearing uniforms, and he was a little surprised: "It's so late, why are you still working?"

Jiang Chen smiled: "For emergencies, you must be on call."

Jiang Jihai nodded understandingly: "I am also in the military headquarters. I often conduct sudden drills in the middle of the night. As soon as the alarm goes off, we have to run out with our clothes."

Jiang Chen asked: "Do you want your Highness to come up and go back together?"

Just now he saw that there was also a driver in the suspension car, and asked the Second Highness to talk with the First Prince and exchange feelings.

But Jiang Jihai waved his hands: "You guys go back first, I have to go for a walk, I'm going crazy if I don't stay out of the hospital for too long!"

Jiang Jiyao: "Go back early, don't go out at night these days."

"Huh?" Jiang Jihai was taken aback, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Jiyao: "Dangerous."

"..." Jiang Jihai nodded in a daze, turned around and was about to go back, when Jiang Jiyao suddenly called him back.

And the tone is different from the usual calm, the voice is very loud.

His shoulders trembled in fright.

When he turned around, he saw that Jiang Jiyao had pushed open the car door and stepped down, walking up to him. Before he could ask a question, Jiang Jiyao pressed his shoulders and turned to look at his back.

"Who painted it on the back?"

"what?"

Jiang Jihai twisted his neck and looked back, and found that the number 3 was painted with red paint on his back at some point.

The ones are bright red, and the big ones almost cover the entire back.

But he just had a good time around the neighborhood. He has been to the crowded square and the noisy night market. There are so many people rubbing shoulders, how could he know who drew it.

Shaking his head: "I don't know, maybe someone did it as a prank. It's okay, I have clothes in the car and just change it."

As a result, this step was not taken.

Jiang Jiyao grabbed his shoulders, and his elder brother, who had always been gentle with him, said in a icy tone, "Follow me back to the Ministry of Justice."
