At night,
Near the Chicago International Airport,
On Street 13, where a murder had just happened yesterday,
This was originally a neighborhood with a relatively serious security problem, not to mention that there was a suspected gang fight last night. Therefore, after 9 o'clock in the evening, most of the residents did not go out and carefully locked the doors and windows.
If yesterday, a few figures could be seen occasionally on Street 13, then today... only stray cats and dogs were left rummaging through the trash bins.
It was clearly a neighborhood near the international airport, but it was still so desolate. Even if the murder was part of the reason, considering the flow of people near the airport, it should not be like this.
In an alley near the murder scene,
"The security in this neighborhood is already pretty good." Wuyue looked at Liu Xiaojiang, who was standing at the entrance of the alley with his arms crossed, and said,
"If it was in a neighborhood where those gangsters gathered and could allow them to obtain illegal profits, I think even if there was a murder, it would not affect the operation of the personnel the next day, because licking blood on the tip of a knife... is their daily life."
"After all, the area near the international airport is not in the city. Most of the residents around are poor. Moreover, the airport is more or less a place for reputation. If it were not for a city with a high crime rate like Chicago, I'm afraid even petty thieves would not be so easy to bump into..."
"It seems to be the case..." Liu Xiaojiang looked back at Wuyue, then looked at the stray cats and dogs on the street again, and said,
"However, it doesn't matter. I don't need the crowd to hide anything..."
Hearing this,
Wuyue recalled what Liu Xiaojiang said yesterday and could not help but look at him in confusion, and said, "What are you waiting for..."
"We just need to wait patiently..." Liu Xiaojiang said without looking back.
"After all, no one will be here to pick us up. There has been no contact from the higher-ups so far. In this case, let alone any support, we can only rely on ourselves to understand the situation."
"Will there be a result if we wait like this?" Wuyue was puzzled.
"Although I don't know if the result will be satisfactory, at least it will be much better than the current situation," Liu Xiaojiang said.
"The people from the Chicago Police Department have already come. I heard that they have defined this case as an unsolved case. No one should be holding on to this case anymore," Wuyue could not help but remind him.
"You stay abroad all year round, and it's a place like Japan that treats mutants as tools, so you don't understand other relatively normal mutant societies," Liu Xiaojiang looked back at Wuyue and said.
"Mutants are indeed not the masters of the current society, and they are indeed a potential risk that is difficult to control..."
"However, in other relatively normal places, although mutants are a potential risk in society, at least, they are not really a different race..................................................................
"What do you mean?" Wu Yue frowned in confusion.
. "... . "Liu Xiaojiang could not help but shake his head helplessly." Do you think that we are the only ones with a company, and there are no similar organizations here? "
"In Japan, where you've been before, the Inhumans have long been treated as tools and controlled, so there aren't many Inhumans causing trouble in society. But … what about the places where the Inhumans aren't treated as tools and controlled?"
"In a society dominated by weak ordinary people, the mutants are not completely controlled like criminals. Almost every mutant with strength can live in society. Who can guarantee that they will always treat weak ordinary people as equals?"
"Besides..."
"The existence of the mutants is a secret. This is the same for most of the international community."
"But once there are issues related to the mutants, and conflicts and problems caused by the mutants, if ordinary people directly mobilize the army to engage in large-scale activities, how can the existence of the mutants continue to be a secret?"
"So, based on humanitarianism, in places that do not intend to control the mutants as tools and criminals, there will definitely be the ability to handle matters and issues related to the mutants under the condition of keeping the secret..."
After listening to these words.
Nangong Wuyue immediately figured out what Liu Xiaojiang had done yesterday. She looked at Liu Xiaojiang with knitted brows and said:
"You... did that yesterday and left the scene without dealing with it. Was it to wait for the people dealing with the mutants to take the initiative to come to you?"
"Although I don't know if the people in charge of dealing with the mutants here are related to Na Senwei from Narsen Island, since there is a strong connection between Narsen Island and Na Senwei, then as a fellow mutant... they should at least know more than us two outsiders."
Liu Xiaojiang nodded and acknowledged Nangong Wuyue's speculation.
"If we are lucky, these guys also have a close relationship with Na Senwei. We might be able to learn everything directly from them..."
"But..." Nangong Wuyue thought for a while and said doubtfully, "How can you be sure that these guys will definitely come? Even if dealing with the mutants is their duty, if they want to investigate... can't they just get the case information from the police station?"
"They will understand the situation from the police station and will definitely come to the scene to investigate the situation..." Liu Xiaojiang immediately smiled maliciously.
"After all, the information from the police station at most shows that the murderer is not an ordinary person, but it is impossible to find any clues about the murderer's identity..."
"Besides..."
Speaking of this, he gradually put away the smile on his face and said slowly:
"Nangong Wuyue, if you were a police officer, when faced with a case that cannot be easily solved, would you choose to believe a child who doesn't know anything, or would you rather believe the case information that you investigated at the scene?"
"No matter how smart the child is, no matter how correct his words are, if there is no 'reliable evidence' that you are willing to believe as support, I believe that at most you will only praise his idea, right?"
"..." Nangong Wuyue was speechless.
"You are right about one thing. It is the duty of those people to deal with the mutants, so if they want to find the murderer behind the case and deal with the incident caused by the mutants in society, they will inevitably come to the scene of the case personally when there is insufficient evidence."
"After all, the people in the police station are ordinary people. They don't even know about the existence of the mutants, so it should be normal for them to overlook some important information about the mutants at the scene, right?"
