Chapter 29 Suspect
Pei Du went up to the second floor. After he returned, he used all the locks on the door and installed an alarm on it.
Sheng Shi was envious of being able to break free from the iron chain last time, and maybe he could do it this time. Pei Du felt the pain in his ear, frowned, and walked towards the bed.
The black book was still in the drawer. Pei Du picked it up and rubbed his temples while organizing his thoughts.
It is tentatively assumed that Ling Yu is the master and An Jia is the dog.
Although Sheng Shixian had grown dog ears for unknown reasons today, there were many inconsistencies with the confession of a "dog". After hesitating for a few seconds, Pei Du ruled out the possibility that he was a dog.
Sheng Shixian is just a nuisance.
Pei Du crossed out Sheng Shixian's name and continued to substitute Ling Yu and An Jia for the roles of the master and the dog respectively.
Ling Yu's information confidentiality system was very strict, and with the help of the white ball system, Pei Du could find very little information about him on the Internet.
Pei Du then shifted his target to An Jia.
An Jia's information was not as difficult to find as Ling Yu's, and it could be found almost anywhere on the Internet. In addition, Pei Du's parents had a close relationship with An Jia's elders, so Pei Du asked a few elderly people and learned that An Jia had indeed been ill when he was 9 years old and was sent to a remote mountain village in City A for treatment.
The environment there is beautiful and the temperature is pleasant. Although the geographical location is remote, there is an old Chinese medicine doctor with excellent medical skills living in seclusion there, and An Jia stayed there for a year for treatment.
Pei Du determined the exact location of the small mountain village and immediately contacted a private detective to investigate the news about "Ling Shu".
Ling Yu hid his personal information very deeply, and Pei Du could not find any useful information about him. He had to find another way and start with Ling Shu.
Moreover, judging from the contents of the black book, Ling Shu and Ling Yu had a close relationship. Pei Du did not believe that Ling Yu could keep all his information secret.
[I don't like Ling Shu, and of course Ling Shu doesn't like me even more. He is mentally ill and likes to talk to himself. He should be sent to a mental hospital.]
[Ling Shu has a dog. It is a completely black wild dog, tall and fierce looking, but its temper is not like Ling Shu's. It is lively and clingy. I occasionally run into this dog on the road. It waits for Ling Shu on the roadside every day. After school, they go home together.]
【Ling Shu named it Dafu, which means rich. It was both blessed and rich, so Ling Shu liked it very much, but he only liked it. Ling Shu used the money he had saved for a year to buy Dafu a winter jacket because the winter that year was very cold.】
[That winter was very cold, and the neighbor next door made dog meat soup. The skin of the black dog was hung on the wall, black and stained, and the blood was flowing down the wall. I couldn't help but look away after taking a look.]
【Ling Shu stood beside him, still wearing the ill-fitting coat.】
[I think he was sad, but there was no expression on his face, not even the slightest emotional fluctuation. It was as if it was real, just an insignificant stray dog that died.]
Pei Du paused in flipping the papers, lowered his eyelashes, and continued to read.
【Ling Shu is a cold-blooded person. He has no feelings, or rather, he has no feelings for people. He has a tail, and he thinks of himself as a beast.】
[The butcher next door fell into the icy lake that winter. The lake was frozen, and he struggled and struggled on the ice, causing the ice to crack, and finally drowned in the icy lake.]
[The villagers said that Ling Shu was there at the time. He stood on the bridge and watched the butcher's body sink until he died.]
【He didn't save him, so the butcher ate his dog. 】
Pei Du felt a little disappointed after reading it. This Ling Shu seemed a little different from what he had imagined.
The long-tailed alien wandered on the edge of society. To Ling Shu, that dog was no longer just an ordinary "dog". It was not a beast, but a life, a being that grew up with Ling Shu and accompanied him for a long time.
He used the money he had saved for a year to buy a winter jacket for his dog.
The group of people were chewing its meat.
How sad.
Pei Du's cell phone vibrated twice. He pulled his mind away from the book and picked up the phone to look through the documents.
The private detectives he hired were very efficient. As long as Pei Du paid them enough, they could get the information at a time Pei Du least expected.
Sure enough, they found these things that would have taken nearly a month to find in less than a day.
It is said that the entire detective agency was mobilized to investigate, searching almost all the files in that mountain village and questioning many local people.
"Ling Shu's information was also encrypted. He has someone above him who kept his information secret. We were lucky because the person in charge of keeping it secret was lax a while ago, so we were able to sneak in..."
Pei Du had no interest in how they got in. He asked, "Have you found out?"
"Of course we found out. I'm not bragging, there's no one in this world that we can't find out." The person on the other end of the phone spoke while walking, and the sound of whistling wind could be heard from the microphone from time to time.
"Just send me the documents and results. You can take a two-day break, and then check a few people for me." Pei Du flipped through the software on the mobile phone screen, turned on the computer and typed a few letters on the keyboard.
"No problem! Hey, Master Pei, we don't need to rest, we work all year round! As long as you tell us, we will check it out immediately!"
Pei Du was speechless. This ATM of his had a lot of everything except money. Any bit of gold that slipped out of its fingers could cover a month's salary for the detective agency.
"Okay, it'd be better if you can do it quickly and give me double the bonus in advance." Pei Du said as he tapped the keyboard and typed in the names of the people he was suspicious of.
The bouquets of roses in his house and the unidentified smell in his room.
There were only a few people who could enter his house, and most of them were acquaintances. Pei Du recalled all the people who had entered his house before and wrote down their names one by one.
An Jia, Qi Sheng, laboratory assistant Lu Zifan, and director Gong Yuanshen.
Pei Du's fingertips paused, he looked at Director Gong Yuanshen's name for a long time, and finally deleted it.
The director was Pei Du's mentor and, to some extent, his adoptive father. Gong Yuanshen had no children, so Pei Du was his child.
Pei Du understood Gong Yuanshen's character. He had helped hide Pei Du's alien identity under pressure from the military for so many years. Pei Du had no reason to doubt him anymore.
Pei Du finally typed Ling Yu's name into the interface and sent a message, "Try to find Ling Yu's information. It doesn't matter if you can't find it. The main thing is the lives of the previous few people, including their birthplace, interpersonal relationships, schools attended, hobbies, specialties... sort them out for me."
The other party received the information quickly, and he assured Pei Du: "Don't worry, Master Pei, we all know the rules. We will be able to find out and hand it over to you in a week, at the latest."
"OK."
Pei Du ended the call with them.
