Throne of Radiance

Chapter 32 Interlude IV

"Confirm that he is really just an ordinary person?"

"Basically, it can be confirmed."

"Fang Zhi, male, 24 years old, a native of Yuanyang City. All the files from childhood to adulthood are here, and there is nothing unusual. Moreover, he does not know anyone involved in this incident, and has no connection with each other. "

"...According to his account, last night, after eating, he went out for a walk as usual, and he didn't remember anything after that, and he became a suspect no matter how conscious he was. That is to say, from about eight o'clock yesterday afternoon to tonight Eight o'clock, almost 24 hours in between, his memory is blank."

"—He lost the memory of a day without knowing it. And it happened that during this day, he committed a major crime that shocked the entire Yuanyang City?"

"Although this sounds like a clumsy lie, all the clues point to this. Several experienced old detectives can conclude that he is not lying. There are also many experts in psychology who can prove it for him."

"Now there are a lot of possibilities. One, he's a brilliantly acted, psychologically savvy criminal who tricked everyone with his show—it's not impossible. Two, he didn't lie, he was hypnotized, and he His memory has been modified by someone, and the modifier's technique is so clever that it has surpassed hypnosis in the general sense. 24. In the past [-] hours, he was not the one who controlled this body, he was just an unlucky guy who was picked at random. "

"——There is also a possibility that he knows the person behind the scenes."

"...then continue the investigation according to these speculations."

"He cannot be released without full confirmation. If he is indeed innocent, it is also a form of protection."

"—I will apply for a special arrest warrant from above."

Yuanyang City Police Station, after an overnight interrogation, the exhausted people walked into the meeting room, all with serious expressions.

"At first, I thought it was just an ordinary kidnapping case. Even though the kidnapper had a bad personality, I didn't expect it to be connected to the rainy night serial murder case not long ago."

Members of the special investigation team including Chu Xingrui who did not participate in the investigation of the kidnapping case, who wanted to catch the serial murderer in the rainy night, hurried back after receiving the news, and met Li Fufeng and the others face to face.Chu Xingrui immediately grabbed Li Fufeng who was passing by, and said impatiently: "I heard that a serial murderer appeared, is it true?"

Li Fufeng nodded: "It's true, there are also video recordings."

During the conversation, all the personnel had gathered, the door of the meeting room was closed, and the video that had been watched several times by Li Fufeng and others was played on the projection screen in the meeting room, and the kidnapper appeared first." I know."

However, at present, everyone's attention is only divided partly on this person who has been obediently staying in the police station, and more thoughts are on the serial murderer who ran away.

When the black umbrella suddenly appeared in the camera, everyone in the conference room who had been prepared could not help but concentrate.

At the next moment, the blond man in a long black trench coat formally entered the country and appeared in front of everyone for the first time.

"Although it wasn't captured in the video, we can guess from that direction that he should have entered through the window..." guessed the member of the special case investigation team who saw this video for the first time.

Li Fufeng, who had been to the scene at the time, gave an affirmative answer: "It should be like this, that's right, the way he left later was to jump out of the window."

Speaking of this, Liu Ningshuang looked annoyed.

"...I already guessed that that guy is not an ordinary person, but I didn't expect to let him go in the end."

For the sake of caution, the police who arrived at the scene were divided into two groups. Li Fufeng and his group entered the milk tea shop, while Liu Ningshuang was left behind because of better skills, and another group of colleagues sealed off the surrounding area to prevent the suspect from escaping.

In fact, their blockade is very tight. All possible escape routes, such as the back door and windows, are all within the blockade. If someone comes out, they will be surrounded immediately.

However, their targets are not ordinary people at all!

They still clearly remember that the moment the blond man jumped out of the window, they were ready to step forward, but Madam disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Can you imagine? A big living person, a big living person just disappeared under my nose!" Speaking of the scene at that time, Liu Ningshuang was still very unbelievable. She gestured exaggeratedly with her hands, and her tone was full of Full of shock, "Really! It's like seeing a ghost in broad daylight! He just came out of the window and wiped it off from the air like someone took an eraser! If it didn't happen right in front of me, I really doubted myself Dreaming."

"——A group of us were stunned on the spot!"

"How could we catch someone with such ability?"

The atmosphere in the meeting room has become somewhat depressed, and everyone fell into silence.

Rao is an old detective who has rich experience and has fought wits and courage with criminals for many years. At this time, he can't help but feel a little powerless.After all, this time, what they faced was not ordinary people, but extraordinary people in the true sense.

If it was just speculation about supernatural powers before, then the speculation has obviously become fact now.How should they deal with it without any special power?

At this moment, they felt that they had nowhere to start.

Mr. An Yuansheng, the most senior and most stable member of the special case investigation team, said: "This matter is beyond our ability to deal with. I have notified the cabinet on the way here, and all the videos and other materials have been uploaded to the imperial capital. On the one hand... If there are no accidents, the imperial capital will specially allocate manpower to set up a new department to be responsible for supernatural related incidents."

"It also includes the supernatural events that happened in Yuanyang City."

Hearing what he said, the others reacted immediately: "So this matter will soon be taken over by a new department?"

For a moment, they didn't know what mood they were in.Feeling ashamed and grateful, and feeling a little bit unwilling while relaxing.

Probably able to guess everyone's thoughts, An Yuansheng continued: "But before that, this is our task. In any case, we must do our best. If we can analyze some key information, even in the end If it is handed over to others, it can be regarded as a contribution.”

Everyone nodded one after another, showing a deeply appreciative look.

During the projection in the meeting room, the short ten-minute video has been played, and then the second, third, and fourth times. Everyone watched this video repeatedly, wishing to focus on every detail in it with a magnifying glass come and see.

The dialogue between the blond man and "Fang Zhi" is even more important, and they analyze it word by word.

The more you analyze, the more you feel, the amount of information is huge!

"First of all, we can confirm the identities of these two people..." Yin Xubai understood everything after reading it almost once, "The guy who claimed to be called K is simply using his name fake, the serial killer we have been tracking down for a long time is the K. As for the other person, he should belong to an organization called the Shadow Council, and he is an important member of it, and it is more likely that he is the so-called president."

"In their conversation before, they mentioned the capital of dawn, and mentioned that the two came to this world one after another. Then, boldly speculate, there should be another world in which extraordinary people live besides our real world. In the online novel Isn't there such a setting?" Chu Xingrui continued, "There may also be countries, regions, and cities in the extraordinary world, and the president of the Shadow Council is from the capital of dawn."

"...That's right, if you follow this line of thinking, this series of events should actually be the two people fighting in the air."

In the middle of the night, the conference room of the police station was brightly lit. Everyone talked to each other and began to make up their minds logically based on clues.

In the old city late at night, Bai Yi, who staged a "I tear myself apart" scene, lazily opened the puppeteer's diary.

At this moment, everyone in the meeting room has pieced together the whole picture of the matter——

"Assuming that there is still a supernatural world that we don't know about in this world, long before that, the head of the shadow council came to the real world for unknown reasons, and for unknown reasons, other members of the council probably did not come..."

At the same time, Bai Yi picked up a brush and wrote——

[Beyond Zhanlan Star, there are countless alien time-spaces. Whenever different time-spaces accidentally overlap due to unknown reasons, abnormal time-space nodes will appear. ]

[A few years ago, an abnormal space-time node appeared, bringing the uncrowned king of Dawn to this world...]

……

In the conference room, everyone continued to—

"Precisely because it appeared in the real world earlier, the president of the Shadow Council has sufficient time to redevelop his forces and collect intelligence in the real world."

"The victims of the rainy night serial murder case some time ago, and Gong Fang this time, are likely already on his target list..."

[The puppeteer who upholds the concept of #形成最大的恐怖,食向了ALL都#, even though he has lost all his foundations in Dawn City, is not discouraged. Instead, he quietly hides himself and redevelops in this brand new world , and began to return to the old business. ]

[He hides in the shadow of the city and contributes to urban environmental protection...]

"Swipe brush..."

Smooth handwriting is written on the notebook.

……

"At this time, K also came to the real world due to unknown reasons. He didn't know that the president of the Shadow Council was there, and he touched the opponent's intelligence network just after arriving, and was discovered by the president of the Shadow Council, and moved The idea of ​​recruiting him—here we can see that K should be an unorganized individual in the extraordinary world."

[The puppeteer who wanted to silently clean up all the target garbage found K's arrival, and immediately had more choices. ]

[He decided to bring this person under his command to strengthen the council. ]

……

"Then, there is the guidance that K said, and the test that the leader of the shadow council said."

Yin Xubai added: "If I'm not mistaken, K, the rainy night serial murderer, should get him some benefits by killing the so-called people who fit his aesthetics. Maybe it has something to do with his supernatural ability."

"...So, the president of the Shadow Council secretly used some means to guide him, so that he, a guy who just came to Yuanyang City and is unfamiliar with his life, can accurately find an aesthetic goal so quickly."

"...In fact, these people are likely to be on the list of the president of the Shadow Council. Just like Gong Fang."

"In this way, the leader of the Shadow Council has completed the test on K, and by the way he has solved the person he wants to solve."

[As the former uncrowned king of Dawn City, the dog among dogs, the puppeteer understands K's abilities, such as his extraordinary equipment. ]

[When the black umbrella transformed into a gun, its bullets were condensed from dirty soul energy.For every person who died under K's hands, the more filthy the soul, the stronger the condensed extraordinary bullet. ]

[Therefore, the puppeteer guides K to find the garbage that should have been on his cleaning list, clean it up, and complete the test on K by the way, which can be described as a win-win situation. ]

……

"As for K, he probably didn't notice it at first, but then he probably realized something was wrong, so he suddenly started killing wildly - before we thought it was because of your aggressive general, King Chu, this is his provocation against us."

Chu Xingrui, who was named, smiled embarrassedly, and listened to the others continue to analyze: "But now, it seems that he should have provoked both sides at the same time, and we are just incidental. Maybe our carpet search and the city-wide martial law are exactly K If he wants, he may want to take the opportunity to force the guy behind the scenes to show up."

[…The puppeteer received K's provocation without error, and he realized that the other party had discovered the artificial guidance, which made the puppeteer very happy.As expected of the member he fancy, the smart IQ in his head occupies a high ground. ]

[Thereupon, the puppeteer decides to give his own response. ]

……

"Then, there was the kidnapping incident. This should be the response given by the president of the Shadow Council. He used K's name to commit the kidnapping case, which became known all over the world. Maybe he wanted K to come to him on his own initiative?"

[The puppeteer actively seduces K in a high-profile manner. ]

……

"In the end, it's what we saw in the video. Maybe the only thing the president of the Shadow Council didn't expect was that K not only didn't agree to solicit, but also intentionally exposed the existence of the Shadow Council at the expense of others?"

In the police station, everyone closed all the clues and finally synthesized a logic chain that seemed to have no loopholes.

"—But, did he really not expect it?"

The atmosphere in the meeting room froze for a moment, and everyone let out a long breath: "Anyway, at least now we are no longer blind and ignorant."

"If I'm not mistaken, this time it's probably just a tentative fight between the two, and they didn't even take it seriously--knowing that the milk tea shop has been exposed, they certainly can't stay there for a long time, let alone expose their cards in front of us."

"... K found the guy who used him behind the scenes, and the president of the Shadow Council also conveyed his willingness to recruit, and the two have achieved their goals." Yin Xubai, the smartest, guessed, "Maybe when we study their identities here now, These two men have already had a deeper confrontation in places we don't know about."

The others suddenly felt that what he said made sense: "Yeah, maybe they will hand it in now."

They all had serious expressions on their faces.

On the second floor of the apartment in the old city, the puppeteer's log has long been included in the Shadow Council interface, and the lights in the bedroom snapped out.

Bai Yi lay down under the blanket, and yawned sleepily.

Yin Xubai and others are still staying up late and balding, but it is said that the puppeteer who is fighting fiercely and the man behind K's scenes have already fallen asleep peacefully :).

The author has something to say: Everyone: The extraordinary are so terrifying!

Bai Yi: Hu... Hu... [Snoring]
