Miss Nan's acting skills had always been sincere. Even if her disguise was exposed, she still didn't change her expression.
"In fact, I didn't expect to meet you." Nan Xiaonan shrugged and said, "I only planned to do the autopsy quietly and then leave quietly. It was you who barged into my life without my consent."
Wasn't that a shameless excuse?
Red Child's life had always been very simple. There was not a lot of deception, nor was there a lot of talking … In fact, most people could hardly talk to her for more than thirty seconds.
"Why do you want to do the autopsy?" Red Child frowned.
There were very few things that her eyes couldn't see through. From the beginning to the end, what she saw was only a mass of dark and swarthy things … The unknown, the unknown always made people subconsciously shrink back.
"I'm interested." Nan Xiaonan said indifferently, "Purely interested … Of course, you can also see it as a person who has nothing to do. Suddenly, he feels that he has found something to do."
Red Child didn't believe it. At this moment, Sir Ma 2.0 hurried over and interrupted their conversation.
"Miss Red Child, I'm afraid it's not a good time to continue the case." Sir Ma 2.0 frowned and said, "The director wants you to go home and have a rest … He'll let you know if there's any new progress."
Red Child asked, "Officer Ma, what do you think?"
Sir Ma 2.0 said formally, "I agree with the director."
At this moment, Red Boy sneered. He used a voice that made the bureau chief, who had his ears pricked up and even used a little trick to strengthen his hearing, tremble. "Then it's simple. I'll get my mother to dismiss him. You can take over."
'What?
Is that possible? '
'How does it feel?'
Sir Ma 2.0 widened his eyes and his heart pounded. 'How much is the director's annual salary …'
"Old Ma! Don't worry about the bureau! The most important thing for you now is to help Miss Red Child catch the murderer as soon as possible! " The director was holding a megaphone in the distance, "What we need most now is for me, the director who has served Huo Yun City for more than 60 years … Don't worry, I'll take care of everything!"
Red Child smiled and said, "Officer Ma, what do you mean?"
Officer Ma 2.0 sighed, "Let's go. We've tracked down the taxi … But Miss, I have a request. You have to listen to me when it comes to handling the case."
"I can listen to you." Red Child said calmly, "But it's up to me … Take this guy with you, I have something to ask him."
"Old Fang?" Sir Ma 2.0 blinked.
They were going out to investigate a case and look for clues. They were not going to a murder scene. What was the point of bringing a forensic officer along?
…
…
The city was bustling, and the forest park in Flaming Cloud City was also in full swing … Workers were busy digging.
Soon, a new hotel was going to be built here.
The small forest hotel was the most important project of Flat Sky Group this year, but Boss Niu canceled the groundbreaking ceremony a few days later.
Underground, there were all kinds of smells mixed. The workers were taking turns to do the low-paid manual work under the orders of the black-hearted foremen.
Even so, the scene was still filled with workers sizing them up. Most of them were temporary workers, and among these temporary workers, most of them came from the bottom of Flaming Cloud City or were homeless vagrants.
Some of them worked multiple jobs to make a living, and even came to earn extra money at night.
"F * ck, Flat Sky Group is really a black-hearted company. I've never seen such a ruthless company …"
Compared to working hard, the temporary workers were even more diligent in criticizing Fire Cloud Market for its sinful nature … At this moment, Teacher Xiao Hu touched the wet traces of water on his forehead and raised his head with a slightly dizzy gaze.
The pit was more than the size of a football field, and it was more than 20 meters deep … Looking up, it was like standing in an abyss.
Although the temporary workers were cursing, in Huoyun City, the only company that could start such a huge project and recruit so many temporary workers at once was the Flat Sky Group.
It should have been half a month since Teacher Xiao Hu became a temporary worker at this construction site. He relied on the fact that his cultivation method allowed him to recover his Qi quickly and had sufficient stamina to do the work of two people. He was able to earn a salary of one and a half people … His income was barely decent.
His parents didn't have a high income, but his younger brother was much better than him. He was studying in a blessed land, but the cost of living in the blessed land was too high. He needed to support his younger brother's studies, and his salary as a sparring teacher in Huo Yun High School wasn't enough.
"Help! Someone fainted … People up there, why did they stop the oxygen supply? Are they trying to kill us?! "
Suddenly, a commotion could be heard … not far from where Teacher Xiao Hu was.
He had been used to this kind of situation for a long time. Digging underground would create many tunnels … If the oxygen supply was not provided, it would be life-threatening at any time.
There were not many cultivation methods that the people at the bottom could come into contact with. It was very difficult for the common cultivation methods to allow one to reach the state of Turtle Breath … To be able to reach the state of Turtle Breath meant that one was about to leave the mortal body. Not to mention the people at the bottom, even the children of wealthy families who received good education might not necessarily be able to achieve it.
The one who fainted was an old, skinny, sloppy old man … Maybe he had met him once?
Mr. Hu silently watched the old man being carried away.
The old man was actually not breathing.
It was hard to imagine that such a scene would happen in such a bustling capital like Huo Yun City … He silently mourned for the old man for a moment, and then picked up the shovel again.
He didn't work long every night, otherwise he couldn't guarantee his physical strength the next day — After all, he mainly worked in Huo Yun High School.
But tomorrow was the weekend, so he could work a little longer tonight … How about moving bricks all night?
"Not good, Crater Seven has collapsed … Someone come!!"
But things didn't go according to one's wishes. Mr. Hu's plan to work all night was soon forced to stop because of the collapse of a pit.
The workers thought it must be because the engineer made a mistake in the measurement, while the engineer thought it was because the workers didn't dig according to the plan. Both sides insisted on their own opinions, and the construction site was completely stopped.
"Okay, okay, don't quarrel. Dig out the people buried inside first. Save as many as you can! Everyone, come and help! "
Soon, a path was cleared out from the potholes. Several people in charge of the construction site took the initiative to enter the potholes. But after a while, these people ran out in a hurry … They didn't say anything. They just announced the suspension of work. The temporary workers present would be given their salaries on the spot, and they would be notified when they would resume work and so on.
"It seems that work won't resume in these two days … Tomorrow, let's go to Huo Yun Mine to take a look."
Mr. Hu thought about the harvest tonight and frowned slightly … He didn't even do his usual work, and couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.
"Listen to me, they definitely dug out something inside. I was nearby … I saw a light, a treasure light!"
"Did you see what it was?"
"Let me tell you … Shh."
The two temporary workers who were whispering suddenly stopped talking. Then, they looked at Teacher Xiao Hu who had just walked past with vigilance, and quickly disappeared into the forest.
Treasure light …
Mr. Hu couldn't help but be startled, and subconsciously looked at the big pit below … He quickly shook his head. Even if they really dug out a treasure, in the hands of [Flat Sky], even Bonehead wouldn't spit it out.
[Blue Sky] wasn't called one of the top ten black-hearted enterprises for nothing. He shook his head and quickly left the construction site in the central forest.
…
"… It's okay, tomorrow is the weekend, and I just came back from a gathering with my colleagues."
He held the phone around his neck and carried two bags of food in his hands, crawling in the narrow corridor … The lights in the corridor flickered, and it looked like it had been in disrepair for a long time.
"You don't have to worry about the weapons. The teams I led this month did well, and the school gave out a lot of bonuses. I'll send it to you in two days … I heard from my brother that if we want to use weapons, we have to use at least a level two magical weapon. Without a good weapon, you can't do any damage, right? "
"It's enough, why wouldn't it be enough? Don't worry, I'll definitely save some money for myself. Don't tell me your brother will scrimp for you … But you're a sensible kid. If you pester me to buy a spiritual weapon, I'll announce that I'm no longer your brother. "
"Girlfriend? How can a girlfriend be more fun than a game! When you reach my age, you'll realize how interesting it is to earn your own living! "
"Okay, I'll stop talking, I'm home … If you have time, call home a few more times."
He hung up, opened the door, and closed the door.
He leaned against the door, slowly exhaling.
Outside the window was the neon lights of Huoyun City that never went out at night. The rented apartment was like a stone at the bottom of a well, surrounded by tall buildings.
"You seem to be back early tonight?"
Suddenly, a voice came.
"Gao Yang?"
Teacher Xiao Hu subconsciously looked at the direction of the voice.
In the narrow living room, the TV was the only light source in the apartment — mainly to save electricity.
He looked at the back of the person sitting on the sofa, startled, "Something happened at the construction site, so they stopped work. What about you … Don't you need to work late tonight? "
"Tonight's business is not good, so I don't work … There's a Canglan Super League competition in the middle of the night, so I bet on Big Dipper Team. Eating porridge or eating dinner depends on tonight!"
Gambler …
Teacher Xiao Hu shook his head, but thought for a while, "By the way, do you need a temporary replacement? I don't need to go to the construction site these two days, so I can help you. "
"Brother, you can drive, but you don't have a taxi license. If I'm caught, I'll be in trouble."
"It's okay, I'm just saying." Teacher Xiao Hu smiled, "I'll go back to my room first …"
The voice in front of the TV suddenly said, "Xiao Hu, today … Are you okay?"
"Today?" Little Hu paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "What can happen to me? Aren't I standing right in front of you … Don't look at me too late. But for someone like you who works late at night every day, you probably can't sleep right?"
"Good night."
"Okay … Good night."
…
Back in his room, Teacher Xiao Hu first folded the salary of the construction site and put it in a metal box … Then, he lay on the bed, looking at the news, WeChat Moments, and part-time job information.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly sat up.
The bag … The clothes in the bag.
He had almost forgotten about it.
Teacher Xiao Hu took out a set of clothes from the bag, laying it flat on the bed, carefully smoothing each corner of the clothes.
"There's no label, so it's hard to estimate." Teacher Xiao Hu murmured, "What material is it made of …"
He actually regretted taking it back … carelessly.
He suddenly found that he didn't have a suitable time to wear such formal clothes … If he wore it to school, it would be torn in half a day.
'So tired.'
"Don't worry about me … I'm fine … very fine …"
He lay on the bed, eyelids gradually became heavy, and he fell asleep unconsciously.
At this moment, the clothes seemed to have a life of their own. Like a stream of water, they slowly flowed into Teacher Little Hu's body …
…
…
…
…
"What … Sent for maintenance? What a coincidence!"
Officer Ma 2.0 frowned. He was in a company called Qi Qi Taxi. His police badge allowed him to enter freely, and the person in charge of the taxi company was very cooperative.
"The driver said the engine was strange this morning, so he sent it for maintenance. This batch of cars is 20 years old, so it's normal to have some problems occasionally. "
Sir Ma 2.0 thought for a while, "I want to know the information of the driver last night, please provide it to me."
He had already told the director that he was here to investigate a case — but he didn't say what the case was.
The director of the company wasn't stupid, so he didn't ask too much. He wouldn't make things difficult for a police officer of Huoyun City for a contract worker, so he quickly gave the information of the driver.
"According to the records, this car was driven by Old Zheng … This is the information that Old Zheng registered with me."
Sir Ma 2.0 took a look at the information, giving it to his subordinate, "Contact this Mr. Zheng."
At this moment, Sir Ma 2.0 felt that he had to comfort the Miss of Huoyun City.
He saw that Red Boy's expression was not good at this time. His hands were crossed in front of his chest, and his legs were constantly shaking. He was obviously impatient … but he was trying hard to restrain himself.
But the temperature was a bit high …
"That's how it is to investigate a case. You have to be patient." Officer Ma 2.0 said solemnly, "But I have a hunch that we'll find something if we follow this line of investigation."
Red Boy frowned and was about to say something.
The director of the company said, "Officer, Mr. Zheng is here! Look, he's Mr. Zheng! "
At this time, a man with a sallow complexion wearing a hat slowly walked in, wearing a windbreaker and a mask on a hot day … Hearing the person in charge at this time, his eyes were stunned, and he turned around and ran in horror.
Bang —!
Before the man could run two steps, he was caught up by a figure emitting a scorching aura … The man only felt his body sink, and was directly pressed to the ground.
Cracks appeared on the entire floor at this time. Red Boy's long hair was slightly scattered at this time, and sparks were flashing in his hair.
"Why did you run?" She asked coldly.
Mr. Zheng spat blood on his mask, saying with a trembling voice, "I … don't know, I … I just felt something was wrong, so I ran …"
"…" Red Boy gritted her teeth, "Tell me! Did you drive this girl last night? "
Red Boy put the phone screen in front of Old Zheng. The screen was a photo of Ba Dan's daily life.
"Last night? No! "Mr. Zheng said," I, I haven't seen this girl. "
Red Boy snorted coldly, "The traffic bureau's Sky Eye caught her getting into your car. Do you know what happened to her now? She was killed."
"Traffic Bureau …" Elder Zheng gasped and said in horror, "No … It wasn't me! How dare I! There must be a mistake. "
Red Boy stared at him, and the temperature in the air rose again … Sir Ma 2.0 hurriedly walked forward and said before Red Boy did anything, "Mr. Zheng, right? I suspect you're involved in a murder case, please come back with me to help with the investigation! "
"It, it really wasn't me!" Mr. Zheng yelled, "It wasn't me who drove last night!"
"But according to the records, it was you who worked last night!" Red Boy said in a low voice.
Mr. Zheng said with a trembling voice, "I had something to do last night, so I found someone to take over my shift … The company doesn't allow that, so I didn't dare to say … It really wasn't me last night!"
"Then who was it?"
"It's … it's a guy called Gao Yang." Mr. Zheng said quickly, "I don't know him well, but he said he could take over my shift for half the pay … I thought I would take advantage of him, so … so I made an agreement with him. But I heard the driver said there was something wrong with the car. I didn't know if it was Gao Yang, and I didn't dare to say, so I could only lie … It really wasn't me! "
"What do you think that person is called?" Red Boy suddenly frowned.
"Gao Yang!"
"Do you know him?" Sir Ma 2.0 saw the change in Miss Fire Cloud's expression, so he couldn't help asking.
"I don't know." Red Boy said indifferently, and threw Mr. Zheng to Sir Ma 2.0, "Go ahead, I won't ask … It's boring!"
At this moment, Nan Xiaonan blinked her eyes. She, who had been watching the whole time, quietly hid the stack of documents on the taxi company's manager's table into her clothes.
There were a lot of old drivers' information …
It would be a waste if she didn't take it.
