Pollution throughout the territory - #218 - Chapter 215 Deeper Mist
“1082, buyer, Lishan Community, Building 9, Xia Ji!”
Although Xia Ren couldn’t believe it, the fact was right in front of him.
1082 was the year when he made his voice heard. Building No. 9 in Lishan Community was the place where he had lived since he was a child, and Xia Jizheng was his father’s name!
It is understandable that there are two people named Chen Qiwei in a city, but it is obviously impossible to say that there are two people with the same name in a building and have not discovered each other for decades.
“Will not……”
My mind was very confused, with many thoughts coming to me.
He tried hard to recall, but after not seeing each other for more than ten years, the memory of the time had long since faded. Even his parents’ faces were hard to remember, with only a vague outline obscured by shadows.
He didn’t want to accept this fact.
“Xia Ren, Xia Ren! Xia Ren!”
The familiar shout brought his thoughts back to reality. Liu Xiuxiu shook his arm with both hands, her expression a little anxious.
“What’s wrong with you, Xia Ren? Why did you suddenly fall into a daze? Why didn’t you respond no matter how I called you?”
“Oh, no…it’s okay.”
Xia Ren was still in a daze and felt a slight pain in his head. He reached out and touched it, and there was cold sweat all over his forehead.
“Xia Ren…”
Liu Xiuxiu felt something was wrong with him. She had never seen him look so lost before.
“Don’t talk yet, I want to be alone for a while.”
Xia Ren said, turned and left the room.
Team Leader Li originally wanted to express concern, but when he heard this sentence he closed his mouth and did not stop him.
He turned around and saw that the eyes of the police officers around him were attracted, and said loudly: “What are you doing standing there in a daze? Continue the investigation!”
Liu Xiuxiu walked downstairs and found that Xia Ren had not gone far. He was squatting on the edge of the green belt in front of the residential building, resting his elbows on his knees and covering his face with his hands, motionless.
Silently walking in front of him, Liu Xiuxiu also learned to squat to the side, tilting her upper body and stretching her head to look.
Through the gaps between his fingers, you can see Xia Ren’s eyes, which are dull and lifeless, as if he has suffered an unbearable blow. He feels like a little girl who has just been insulted. If his clothes are touched again, Tear it up a little, and it will look more like it.
“How could he look so fragile…”
Liu Xiuxiu vaguely felt that this must be related to the notebook just now, but because it was an exhibit, he did not take it with him when he came down just now, but left it with Team Leader Li.
After a while, Xia Ren still didn’t respond. He was as motionless as a statue.
Liu Xiuxiu began to worry.
“There must be something wrong with him.”
If something really goes wrong, how should I explain it to Qin Yun when I go back…
Xia Ren’s thoughts at this time were much more complicated.
If he had seen the notebook a few days ago and learned that he was not the biological child of his parents, he might not have reacted much.
Regardless of whether he is his biological child or not, his parents have raised him, and the relationship between him and them will not change.
But yesterday I just learned about the Wizards Alliance and the ghouls, and learned that they use human traffickers to send ghoul babies to human families. The whole thing suddenly became extremely scary.
He knows that he is special, and the purpose of the system cannot be guessed until now. Zhao Mingyue has a close relationship with him, and Huang Qiuyuan knew him before the system bound him. How many memories have been tampered with, and how many memories have been hidden. , he didn’t know.
“So, am I not human?”
Am I… also a descendant of ghouls?
Xia Ren carefully thought about this possibility, and the answer was no.
He had no special fascination with corpses, and he had never seen any ghouls with tentacles on their heads.
After thinking about it, he only has one thing in common with the ghoul cub, that is, he has the appearance of a top human being.
Zhao Mingyue, Huang Qiuyuan, the system… it’s too chaotic.
Although Xia Ren regarded himself as the protagonist in his book, before today, he had never thought that his protagonist also had a complicated life experience.
“Go to hell! I don’t want to think about it anymore!”
With a slap on his thigh, Xia Ren suddenly stood up, startling Xiuxiu who was staring at him seriously next to him, and almost fell into the green belt behind.
“Why did you follow me down?”
Only then did Xia Ren notice him and stretched out his hand to prevent him from falling.
“You just discovered it!”
Liu Xiuxiu slapped her butt and said angrily.
“How long have we been down here?”
Xia Ren looked around. Several police superintendents were investigating nearby to see if there were any suspicious signs.
Liu Xiuxiu said uncertainly: “About two minutes.” He was distracted just now and didn’t pay attention to the time.
Just as he was talking, Team Leader Li walked out of the stairs, saw Xia Ren and the others, and waved.
“Have you discovered anything?” Team Leader Li asked as soon as he walked in front of him. It seemed that he was very concerned about this case.
“No.”
Xia Ren shook his head.
Team Leader Li continued: “But I just saw you directly inspecting the head of the corpse…”
Xia Ren still insisted on denying it.
This is no ordinary case. No matter how many police forces are mobilized, it will not help because the murderer is not a human at all.
Team leader Li refused to give up and said: “Little brother, to tell you the truth, this is the third similar case. A big shot died last night, and he died in a similar way to this victim. His brain was completely drained. I don’t know where I’m going. To be honest, I’m very stressed. If you find anything, please tell me.”
The three cases he mentioned should include Lai Bo and Chen Qiwei upstairs, but who are the big shots?
Xia Ren just thought about it briefly and did not dwell on the issue. He still refused with a smile.
Now that Chen Qiwei is dead and the clues are cut off, there is no point in him staying anymore.
Team Leader Li knew that he had a special status and could not stop him from leaving.
Back in the car, Xia Ren tapped his fingers on the steering wheel and didn’t start in a hurry.
“It seems like an investigator is here today to take Tang Tangtang back to your headquarters, right?”
he asked suddenly.
Xiuxiu didn’t expect that he would still remember it after she only mentioned it.
“Um.”
“Don’t you need to be there?”
“I look like this now…”
Liu Xiuxiu looked depressed.
He has been contaminated. If he meets his colleagues, he will either be captured and executed, or he will defect. There is no third option.
“Maybe there will be a turnaround in the future.”
Xia Ren comforted her and then said, “I remember that Liang Wan let the female student go when we were in Liming Middle School, saying that she wanted to continue to observe and see if she could become an investigator, right? Will she be picked up this time too?”
The female student refers to Cheng Shuangshuang who looked exactly like Zheng Wenruo in the Third People’s Hospital. At that time, she came out of Xu Qiang’s dream. According to the regulations, her memory was supposed to be erased, but Liang Wan didn’t know why. She left. The explanation given later was to see if she had the potential to become an investigator.
“ah?”
Hearing this, Liu Xiuxiu was inexplicably panicked and said awkwardly: “Haha, you were talking about her, I almost forgot about it. I’ll ask you later.” Her voice became lower and lower as she spoke, obviously trying to hide something.
Xia Ren pondered for a moment. Originally, he had not planned to tell Ping Shiqing what he had just seen in the notebook, but with this incident, it became necessary to go to the hospital. He did not want to have any more hidden dangers around him.
Cheng Shuangshuang’s abnormal behavior always made him feel that this girl was not simple.
