Fog Formula-Warning Book of Fog City Search Chief's Strange Talk - Chapter Twenty-Four

“It’s finally over. Those reporters are too annoying!”

Xi Wei walked back to her desk from the conference room with a large stack of documents in her arms, then screamed and lay back on her desk, burying herself in the large stack of documents. Then the young girl quietly glanced at Jian Shenxiu by the window next to her from the corner of her eye. Seeing that the chief inspector still didn’t respond, she buried her head back and shouted loudly.

“No, no, I’m exhausted. I’m going to die if there is no overtime pay.”

“During working hours, what are you yelling in the office?”

Seeing that Shenxiu couldn’t ignore her this time, he walked over from the window with a dark face and walked to her desk.

“Master Inspector!”

So Xi Wei finally raised her head from the document, and put on a pitiful look to Jian Shenxiu.

“Look, I’m so busy these days, this month…”

“Triple bonus.” Jian Shenxiu interrupted her directly and neatly. “But it’s still the same sentence, the premise is to solve the case.”

“Yes!” So the girl immediately straightened her expression, but the pitch of her voice became obviously higher, and the corner of her mouth also evoked a smile that couldn’t be concealed.

The young girl tried her best to keep a straight face, and raised her hands to salute to see the god.

“Guaranteed to complete the task!”

“Take out documents C104, 105, and 107, and then help me retrieve these things. I want Zheng Zong’s life records, and…”

Seeing Shenxiu with a cold face, he didn’t bother to pay attention to the girl’s tricks, and said directly.

“Today is the last day of overtime work, and you can rest tomorrow.”

“Huh? Yes!” The girl froze for a moment when she heard this, and began to look down at the large stack of documents she had just brought over. “Any new developments in the case?”

“Well, there are some.” But seeing that Shenxiu didn’t answer her question directly, he just said vaguely.

“I’m going to wrap up the case tonight.”

“Yes!” Xi Wei immediately lifted her spirits, and the lazy and playful look she had just walked out of the meeting room just now faded away instantly. A capable temperament emerged from her in an instant.

She nodded seriously, found out the few documents Jian Shenxiu asked for, and said to Jian Shenxiu.

“I’ll be ready.”

The Bureau’s operating statute is the Operations Center Remote Support Operations Team. If there is an action tonight, then the search bureau will naturally keep people in charge. Seeing Shenxiu say this to her now, it was obvious that he wanted to keep her on duty.

“No, no need.”

However, Jian Shenxiu, who reached out to take the document, shook his head and gave an unexpected answer.

“You can get off work on time today, and you don’t need to sit down for today’s action.”

“Huh?” The girl’s expression suddenly seemed a little surprised, which was obviously a violation of the rules. But considering that the search bureau’s regulations were set by the search chief opposite, Xi Wei didn’t know how to evaluate this behavior for a while.

“Take a good rest tonight. It’s also very hard to work overtime continuously during this period.”

However, the Chief Inspector continued to speak words that made Xi Wei slightly stunned, flipping through the documents in his hand, showing a slightly gentler attitude than usual,

“Remember to go to work on time tomorrow morning, just write a report on the case.”

“yes……”

This gesture made Xi Wei a little puzzled. She had not been in the search bureau for a long time, but she definitely understood the search bureau’s style of work. Capable, accurate, clear, and absolutely are the principles that have always been followed within the Search Bureau. And these guidelines were extended under the leadership of the search chief. It is really surprising that such vague words that violate the system and come out of Jianshenxiu’s mouth.

After seeing Shenxiu, he stopped talking to her, and didn’t even return to his office with the documents. Instead, he just stood in front of Xi Wei’s desk and started reading. Because of the chief searcher’s actions, the atmosphere in the hall of the search bureau became quiet for a while, and the chief was standing in the hall, so naturally no one dared to speak loudly.

Seeing that Shenxiu seemed to ignore this change, he just frowned slightly and began to read the documents he asked for by name. Wei pulled out several other documents. And his expression was constantly changing with the reading of those few minutes of documents. The tablet in his hand glowed with azure light, reflecting on his face.

“Zheng Zong, how is the victim who was found at the crime scene for the second time?” Jian Shenxiu asked Xi Wei while looking at the file.

“After the hospital examination, it was found that he didn’t suffer too much injury, but was frightened. So after he calmed down, the hospital discharged him.” Xi Wei immediately replied, “He’s back to school now.”

“Send me his latest relationships and developments.” Jianshen Xiudao.

“Yes.” Xi Wei nodded immediately, quickly sorted out a document, and sent it to Jianshenxiu’s tablet.

“Zheng Zong didn’t encounter anything special in this incident. If we want to talk about changes, he simply lost forty catties. From one hundred and eighty catties to one hundred and forty catties.” After posting, Xi Wei added on the side.

“In a sense, this may be a good thing for him, judging from the personal dynamics between him. He has been suffering from weight for a while. This incident happened to help him lose 40 pounds. It’s a blessing in disguise.”

“You say [exactly]?”

Seeing that Shenxiu was noncommittal to Xi Wei’s words, he subconsciously just repeated the two words in Xi Wei’s words.

“Isn’t it just…? Is… that’s how it was prepared?”

Xi Wei seemed to think of something, her expression changed slightly.

“Is it related to that place? We have two recorded victims. The first one is Yamada Shangichi, but Yamada Shangyi was completely torn up when we found it. No body can be seen. We still sat down The genetic analysis confirmed the identity… Do you mean that he may have undergone similar changes before his death? This change is the attribute of the supernatural event in Kotobuki? But it also experienced the supernatural time in Kotobuki. The first The victim Yamada Shoichi was killed or even dismembered, but the second victim Zheng Zong walked out alive… What is the reason for this?”

“…” Seeing Shenxiu shaking his head, he didn’t answer the question directly, but changed the topic to another direction.

“Actually, there has always been a problem in this case.”

“When we were trying to restore Yamada Shangichi’s route, we discovered that although there were many routes to the place where he was finally killed. But only from the monitoring of his previous route, he took a [dead end]. “

Seeing that Shenxiu put down the document with the route marked, he said casually.

“This [dead end] does not mean that he cannot reach the place where he was killed, but that, judging from the monitoring distribution of that place, if he follows his route to the place where the accident happened, he will inevitably pass through a certain surveillance system during the process. But in fact, our surveillance did not capture this process at all in the end. He suddenly disappeared at a certain location, and then suddenly appeared at the place where he was killed. It was like entering a certain place through a special space, What went through in there and then got spat out in the very place where he was killed.”

“The place where Zheng Zong was found is the same as the place where Yamada Shoichi was killed! That place is the exit!” Xi Wei suddenly understood what he meant. “But the monitoring shows that they came from different directions, which means that the entrance is not in a fixed place. The entrance…”

“…”

Seeing that Shenxiu didn’t speak, he just put down the document in his hand. When he put it down, the corner of his eye suddenly glanced at the makeup mirror on Xi Wei’s table, seeing Shenxiu’s eyes moving slightly, he stretched out his hand and picked up the mirror.

It was a round vanity mirror, only the size of a palm, with a wooden frame and a smooth and clear mirror surface. Under the good light in the office, Jian Shenxiu’s slender and tall figure was reflected in the mirror.

He looked at his own reflection in the mirror. When the palm moves slightly and tilts slightly, the figure in the mirror will be elongated immediately, and if it is tilted at another angle, the figure in the mirror will be widened.

Then he turned the mirror to his own face. As the scene in the mirror kept changing, it finally reflected his pale face and those…

Bright red pupils.

Not at 2:30 in the middle of the night…

look into [one’s] eyes.

…

“Lend me this mirror.”

Jian Shenxiu calmly put away the mirror, turned and left.

Under the light, his back was as bright as the sun, burning like a sword of skyfire.

“At eight o’clock tomorrow morning, remember to go to work and close the case on time.”
