It had to be said.
You get what you pay for. Most of the time, this was an iron-clad truth.
There was naturally a reason why a high-level AI butler was expensive.
The video was high-definition and had no coding. Even the sound was high-definition and noiseless.
When countless leeches covered the camera, the few people watching the video could even clearly recognize the wriggling mouthparts of the leeches.
As for the sound …
Before this, even the experienced and knowledgeable Irin had never heard the sound of countless leeches gathering together in such high definition.
The leeches were in close contact with the camera.
If one wanted to add a sense of immersion, one could give an example.
The sound in the video was more charming. It was as if there was a flexible tongue gently and slowly moving around the ear. It was extremely teasing.
But to be more honest, it was as if those leeches had drilled into the ear and were rubbing against the ear, wantonly burrowing holes.
When the shrill scream of the twelfth victim came to an abrupt end, the wriggling sound of the leeches became even clearer and scarier. It made Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye involuntarily cover their ears.
This feeling was too torturous.
The sense of immersion came.
"What is this sound?"
Irin suddenly frowned and asked.
Irin's words made Yuan Zhiye and Wang Bing stunned at the same time.
Gu Tianqing's eyes lit up slightly.
Oda Wu, who had her eyes closed and hugged the long sword like a sculpture, suddenly opened her eyes and said, "There's someone."
Someone?
There was someone, but wasn't he already gone?
Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye were even more confused after hearing Oda Wu's words.
But they didn't dare to doubt it.
After all, other than the two of them, Irin, Oda Wu, and Gu Tianqing were all legitimate apostles.
Maybe "people like them" had particularly good hearing?
"Video, rewind about ten seconds."
Irin frowned and said.
Seeing that Irin didn't seem to be joking, Yuan Zhiye quickly put away the astonishment on his face and displayed his professionalism. He immediately dragged the progress bar and rewound the video a little.
"Slow down."
"It's here."
Yuan Zhiye listened attentively.
A moment later, his expression turned solemn. "It seems that after the deceased was gone, there really seemed to be someone talking in the wriggling sound of the leeches."
Wang Bing scratched his head. "Could it be that he's not completely dead yet?"
When he said this, even Wang Bing found it hard to believe.
Before the leeches covered the camera, they could already see that the poor victim was sucked up by countless leeches. The exposed wrist was quickly deflated at a terrifying speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, the victim was sucked dry. It was hard to imagine that under such circumstances, the deceased would still be able to make a final statement.
Yuan Zhiye opened the audio processing software.
Yuan Zhiye was not as professional as Ou Lele.
However, as a professional member of the investigation team, techniques such as photoshop and editing were very easy.
Enduring the numbness in his scalp, he tried again and again to reduce the ecstatic sound of the countless leeches wriggling.
Gradually, a muffled sound that sounded like someone was chewing on something appeared in front of Yi Lin and the others after being processed.
"Not enough … paste …"
“！”
…
It wasn't enough.
What wasn't enough?
It was unimaginable that these were the last words of the deceased.
Was it not enough to be sucked?
It couldn't be that ridiculous.
"Wait a minute, I'll go to the encyclopedia to look up the physiological structure of leeches …"
Yuan Zhiye's eyes widened.
It was the sound that he had made himself.
However, he was the one who didn't believe it the most.
"There's no need to look it up." Gu Tianqing smiled. "No matter what, the physiological structure of normal leeches is impossible to simulate human language."
"I think I understand now."
Irin nodded. After typing an exclamation mark, he quickly calmed down and figured out the key points.
"You too?"
"Yes."
"As expected of you."
"…"
Wang Bing quietly pulled Yuan Zhiye, who was still looking up the encyclopedia on the Internet, to the side and whispered, "What kind of riddle are they playing?"
"God knows."
Yuan Zhiye looked at Irin and Gu Tianqing's faces that seemed to have seen through the truth. He couldn't help but use an even lower voice to whisper in Wang Bing's ear, "But this way, I finally understand why Brother Zhao sent him here."
"Why?"
"Have you heard of the saying, 'Only perverts can deal with perverts.'"
"…"
…
While Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye were whispering to each other.
Irin and Gu Tianqing also looked at each other and walked to the side.
"Although I can imagine most of the process, there is still a very crucial step to solve this matter at present."
Irin said with a frown.
Gu Tianqing smiled. "But at the very least, with the current clues, we can minimize the scope of the target to the greatest extent."
"I haven't asked you …"
Irin turned his gaze to Gu Tianqing. "Why are you looking for the 'blood-sucking thing'? According to your personality, if you can't get the benefits you want in this matter, you should have run away long ago, right? In other words, you already knew that 'it' was your target? "
"Oh," Gu Tianqing pretended to be sad and covered her eyes. "I'm so sad. Am I such an untrustworthy person in your heart? No matter what, we were once comrades who defeated the terrible demon on the sea together. "
Gu Tianqing's tone also became strange.
"Oh, I can't afford to be your comrade." Irin sneered.
Gu Tianqing shrugged and reluctantly put away her deliberately sad face. She smiled faintly. "Actually, you may not believe it, but I have a sister who suffers from a rare disease. Everything I do is actually to let my poor sister live a little longer. "
"Giving birth to a sister out of nothing? Do you think I will believe that? "Irin's expression was calm as he asked back.
"Sometimes, the more you think it is funny, the more it is the most simple truth. Isn't that right? " Gu Tianqing's expression did not change, but she did not continue to fool about this matter. She changed the topic. "No matter what my reason is, at the very least, I am currently on the same side as you. You wouldn't reject a wise and intelligent spiritual ally, would you? "
Gu Tianqing looked at Irin with a smile. Seeing that the other party still did not seem to believe her, she added, "In the circle, no one wants to offend the Special Case Group."
Irin believed this sentence.
Reluctantly.
Although Gu Tianqing did not say a word of truth.
But it seemed that for now, Gu Tianqing could still play the role of a "good assistant".
Irin's peripheral vision inadvertently fell on Wang Bing and Yuan Zhiye, who were standing on the side.
Why did the two of them have strange looks in their eyes?
Forget it, I don't care so much.
Irin had no time to pay attention.
"Tonight, the leech people are obviously anxious."
Gu Tianqing added with a smile. "They are hungry."
"All the dead have only one thing in common. They live alone and are single. This seemingly insignificant point in common is enough to expose the identity of the leech people. "
Gu Tianqing said, "Police."
Irin: "Hospital staff."
Gu Tianqing: "Delivery man."
Irin: "Marriage registry clerk."
Gu Tianqing glanced at Irin with a smile. "Oh? I didn't think in that direction. "
The two of them spoke one after another, quickly narrowing down the possible scope of the leech people.
What followed next was a headache.
After narrowing down the possible occupations of the leech people, they then cross-compared the data to see if there were any people who were related to the previous twelve dead people.
For example, a case that a certain police officer had handled.
Or a patient who was treated by the same hospital or even the same doctor.
Or a delivery point of the same delivery man.
Or a mating and courtship information left at the same marriage registry.
Data like this intersected.
After listening to Irin's explanation, Yuan Zhiye suddenly understood and cursed.
He never thought that this case would be solved so easily.
The subsequent work of cross-comparing the data was left to Yuan Zhiye.
In fact, for Irin, there was another way to kill a thousand enemies and hurt eight hundred of his own men. He could force all the leeches out of the sewers.
Even though at the end of the surveillance video, the leeches were no longer like normal leeches when they spoke in human language.
But judging from the fact that the leech people almost always chose to commit crimes after nightfall, even the most outrageous leech army seemed to have retained some of the leech's habits.
The livable temperature for leeches was about 10-40 degrees Celsius. If Irin could throw a large number of small props with the "heating technique" into every section of the city's sewers regardless of the cost, it was very likely that the leech army would be forced out under the high temperature.
It was just that the consumption of "crystals" was too huge. This was the sewers of a city. Just this alone would almost exhaust all of Irin's crystal inventory. The loss outweighed the gain.
It was very likely that it would not be enough.
Therefore, when Irin thought of this method, he quickly abandoned the idea.
Another, simpler method … was very likely to alarm the entire city …
"So troublesome."
Unfortunately.
This dead otaku seemed to have the habit of regularly cleaning the memory of the AI butler.
In the period of time before the death of the deceased, there were no special scenes recorded, which made Irin feel quite regretful.
In the whole matter, Irin actually still had a few doubts that he could not figure out for the time being.
It could not be helped.
In fact, to be able to determine the occupation range of the leech people from these fragmented clues had already used up most of the brainpower of the two spiritual-type apostles. If other people came, they might not be able to find so many clues in such a short period of time.
The work on Yuan Zhiye's side had encountered some difficulties.
Although cross-comparison of data was not too complicated. But the workload was really too much.
…
The night was as cold as water.
The sky above Cangyang City was filled with a faint layer of fog.
"It looks like it's going to rain."
Gu Tianqing maintained the faint smile on her face as she looked at the sky.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Gu Tianqing flipped her hand and pulled out a card.
After crushing the card, a set of strangely shaped tarot cards appeared in Gu Tianqing's hand.
After activating the spirit weapon, a translucent body covered in scarlet blood silently floated in front of Gu Tianqing.
Gu Tianqing smiled gently, as if caressing her lover's butt, gently rubbing the back of the tarot card.
"Freya, your skin is so smooth that you can't get tired of it."
While laughing, in the darkness, Gu Tianqing skillfully performed a divination.
After the divination, her face paled a little.
Gu Tianqing stared at the divination results of the tarot card, and her smile suddenly froze.
The one in the middle of the three tarot cards was the picture of a "sword" facing forward.
This meant that …
"Complete destruction."
As for the other two cards …
