Chief Jin rubbed his temples and looked at the newcomer.
This person was his right-hand man. He was strong and had the ability to handle matters. He was newly recruited after the apocalypse and was quickly promoted as a batch of fresh blood.
But he was too impatient.
In their line of work, big and small scenes were common. He should've calmed down a long time ago.
"Those people from the Extreme Martial Arts School … Forget it. They seem to be relatively peaceful. Let's put it aside first …"
Chief Jin thought and took the case information handed over by the security team member.
The documents were all in a document bag. He casually took them out and sighed. "Xiao Xu, remember to be steady when you do things. You're so impatient. How can I trust you to do some important things? Just like this time, only thirteen people died."
"It's not like before the doomsday. It was really serious when thirteen people were killed. But now, the number of survivors dying every day is not small. We have to calm down and look at the problem objectively. Only then can we better solve the problem. Do you understand? "
Director Jin was about to say something, but he suddenly stopped.
His eyes fell on a few photos drawn from the file bag, and his face gradually became dignified.
In the photos, the deceased were men and women, old and young. But the one thing they had in common was that their faces were extremely distorted as if they experienced great pain at the moment of death.
However, there were no scars on those people's bodies.
In fact, if it weren't for his twisted expression and the fact that he wasn't breathing, others might have thought that he was asleep.
"No scars at all? Did the people investigating the scene find anything else, such as poisonous gas residue? "
The young man in front of him shook his head.
Chief Jin rubbed his swollen temples again.
Many of the people investigating the scene were professionals before the doomsday. Since the information didn't say anything, he didn't expect to ask anything.
No wonder this case was a bit strange.
Chief Jin continued to read. His fingers that were tapping on the table stopped in mid-air. He suddenly raised his head, "There's a Fifth Awakening Stage expert among the deceased? This … this is a bit serious! "
"Why didn't you say it earlier?!"
The young man lowered his head with a wronged expression.
Didn't you say to be steady?!
… …
… …
Crime scene.
This was a high-end residential area in the Luoxia Shelter. Most of the people living here were hunters and their relatives and friends.
In order to ensure the safety of their loved ones in the community when these hunters go out and prevent incidents such as vendettas, the community property security team has a strong lineup.
The captain was a Fifth Awakening Hunter, and most of the other security guards were Triple Awakening Hunters. They were fully equipped.
Although Luoxia went missing every day and many survivors died, it happened in the relief and ordinary residential areas.
Several high-end residential areas in Luoxia, whether it was security forces or strict management, made these areas extremely safe, and accidents rarely occurred.
Many hunters were willing to pay to live here.
It was the first time that 13 people had died in a high-class residential area.
The first captain of the Security Bureau stared at the dead bodies in front of him for a long time and frowned.
"Have you found out the relationship between the deceased?"
The person next to him shook his head. "Their identities have been verified. However, among the thirteen victims, three of them were from a family of three, five of them were members of a mercenary team, the other two were a couple, and the rest were all alone."
"Whether it was a family of three, mercenary team members, or others, they had no contact with each other. It's just that they were close to each other."
"Six of them lived in Building 17, and the other seven lived in Building 18."
After the team member finished speaking, he carefully looked around as if there were terrifying demons and ghosts around. "Captain, how do you think these people died? Especially that Fifth Awakening Stage expert. He didn't seem to be able to resist much. Could there really be some kind of demon or ghost?"
"Hmph!" The captain snorted coldly, "Don't scare yourself. We've repelled the demonic wave. What kind of demon or ghost could there be? It's just a case of hunters killing people!"
"But looking at the situation, it doesn't look like a vendetta? Could it be that there's a psychopathic hunter? Even so, there's no need to kill a Fifth Awakening Stage expert. Although from all the circumstances, the killer must have broken through the bottleneck, but the stronger the person, the more uncertain it is … "
"If that person is targeting the strong, it doesn't seem like it. At least among the dead hunters, there are First Awakening Stage, Second Awakening Stage, Third Awakening Stage, and a few are just ordinary people."
He shook his head. The more he deduced, the more he couldn't understand.
The security team was pacing back and forth in the room, "We can't handle the case according to the past thinking. It's the doomsday now. We have to let go of our imagination. In theory, anything can happen."
"First of all, according to the time of death, the killer should only be one person. His strength is above the Sixth Awakening Stage, and he's an ability user. He's good at sneak attacks. Preliminary judgment may be a spiritual special ability."
"The motive of the killing is temporarily unknown. It may be a psychological factor, but it's also possible that he has some purpose, such as to enhance his ability."
"Ability? Killing people can enhance special abilities? "
"It's just my guess, but it's possible." The captain said, "In the Ancestral Dragon's Special Combat Legion, there is a Metal Ability User. He can enhance his special ability by absorbing a certain special factor in Transcendent Metal, such as making the metal growing on his body harder."
"In short, we can't take it lightly. If it's really killing people to enhance his strength, the other party is likely to do it again. We must solve the case as soon as possible."

… …
In a villa only a few hundred meters away from the accident villa. Underground.
The environment here was gloomy.
In the middle of the basement, a scarlet rune array was painted with blood.
Several figures stood in front of the array, their faces couldn't be seen in the darkness.
Beside those standing, there were several figures with blurred faces … No, it should be said that they had no faces. Even the layer of skin on their bodies was completely peeled off, leaving only the blurred flesh and blood. It was chilling to look at.
Those figures didn't care about the corpses close at hand. They just talked among themselves.
"The quality of human souls is indeed high, especially the souls of the awakened ones. One soul is equivalent to several souls of ordinary people. If that's the case, it doesn't seem that difficult for us to fill this rune array and open the black door. Heh heh heh heh …"
