Chapter 561 Above the Posa (96) [VIP]
Of course, we can't find out anything about the identities and causes of death of these nine people here.
"Let Chang William slowly get some information out of them. It would be best if he could find out their relationship with Lin Jianyu," Bai Jinshu thought for a moment, "I'll go back to the pharmacy first."
Tang Ling called him here because he was unsure about these people who had recovered their memories like Team 1. However, now that their identities were revealed, Chang William was enough to get the hang of things. There was a temporary group chat for members of the exploration team to communicate, and as long as the matter could not be explained clearly in words and required the person's presence, it could be resolved by sending messages.
Compared to this place, Wen Qi's place is more important.
After all, if you want to know what happened last night, you can only ask from the world of the living, not from the world of the dead.
"You're going to find Wen Qi?" Zhao Yinglai thought for a moment, "Then I'll wait here and see what Chang William can get out of him."
Chang William was trying to get some information now, and it was not convenient for him to open the panel and reply to messages in the temporary group chat. He also didn't know what they wanted to ask specifically. At least one of her and Skao had to stay here to direct Chang William to get some information.
Bai Jinshu nodded and added, "Have him ask for as much identity information as possible from everyone. Wen Qi doesn't have many connections to check, so the more detailed the information, the better. It would be best if he could get all the information, including name, address, family situation, and company name."
If these people were really Lin Jianyu's competitors who were killed by Xiao Gui for various reasons, then given their status and position, their sudden death could be considered big news. Chang William could ask for their specific names and companies, and Wen Qi could find out the time of their death from past news.
Although it is not clear when these will come in handy, there is always a limit to how much information one has.
"OK," Zhao Yinglai gestured, "You and Tang Lingzihan go back first. Fu Yiran and I are here."
"I'm going to ask for some extra sleep," Tang Ling interrupted, "I was looking for it all night yesterday."
"Go ahead," Zhao Yinglai yawned and muttered, "Damn, I need to catch up on my sleep too. Who in my family understands that I've entered an unknown space and met Zhou Paopi."
Who besides Skao had a good sleep last night?
Bai Jinshu turned a deaf ear to her pointed complaints, leaving only countless comments floating across the Foundation's live broadcast screen:
【We are like this at Aoshen. 】
[I am grumpy when I wake up, but I like to be active late at night. 】
[To be honest, this is the most extensive exploration of Aoshen's nighttime activities that I have ever seen. 】
[Are you sure it is he who is more active and not his teammates? ]
[The Sleep Devourer lives up to its name. 】
…
At the same time, on another side, Wen Qi was also looking for Bai Jinshu.
Wen Yiming's strange behavior made her suspect that more things happened besides the "car accident" that she didn't know about, so she planned to come to the underworld to ask her teacher if she could guess more. Unexpectedly, when she turned her attention back to the underworld, she found that there was no one in the pharmacy.
Or it cannot be said that there is no one.
Doctor Fan was sitting on a rattan chair in the pharmacy, humming some discordant opera tune while flipping through a medical book. He looked as if he didn't care at all that his newly hired clerk had disappeared.
The old man was no longer pretending that he knew Bai Jinshu and the others were not ordinary people. Seeing Wen Qi suddenly come back to his senses, he greeted her with interest: "Hey, are you back to your senses?"
"Doctor Fan," Wen Qi pursed her lips and smiled shyly, "My old... Where are Brother Skao and the others?"
Dr. Fan doesn't know yet that Scaro is her teacher.
"I don't know. They must be out," the old man waved his fan contentedly. "You have something to talk to them about, so wait until they come back."
There is no other solution except waiting for them to come back.
The only permanent members of the pharmacy are Skao, Jiang Jie and Chang William. Now all three are not here, and there is no way to contact them in the underworld. Wen Qi can't find anyone even if she wants to.
"Or why don't you ask him?" The old man shook the paper fan in his hand and suddenly pointed in another direction.
Wen Qi looked in the direction he pointed, and her sight fell on the Abnormal Investigation Bureau lying on the bamboo bed in the corner of the room.
"Ask him?" Wen Qi hesitated a little, "This...I can't do it."
Is it really appropriate for them to tell a policeman about what they are doing now?
But then again, she glanced weakly at Huai Jiamu lying on the hospital bed. It seemed that Scarao and the others had never avoided talking to the captain before, so he should know what they were doing.
For her, the person who knows Xu Ke best in the entire underworld is this captain, and the person who has a certain understanding of Lin Jianyu and the "big shots" is also this captain. Asking him is indeed the best choice.
But the question is, is this something that can be asked?
During the few minutes that Wen Qi was struggling, the person lying on the hospital bed finally responded to her gaze.
Huai Jiamu turned his head and raised his eyelids to look at her: "Do you want to ask something?"
This girl... maybe she can't be called a girl. Wen Qi's eyes are so powerful that anyone who is stared at by this complex look of confusion, hesitation, scrutiny and judgment for several minutes will not be able to help but respond.
"I... uh, not really?" Wen Qi didn't expect him to turn around suddenly. He was caught off guard and could only respond awkwardly, "It's just a small problem..."
Wen Qi hesitated for a long time, and finally gave a brief account of the whole story.
However, he omitted his own actions and concealed a lot of gloating in the process of description, and finally concluded: "Wen Yiming... is my younger brother. He seemed to be very angry about a phone call and even smashed his phone. However, according to his current status, most people would not be able to curry favor with him. There must be something wrong when things are out of the ordinary. I suspect that in addition to the car accident, something else happened."
As soon as Wen Qi finished speaking, Huai Jiamu said in a light tone, almost without thinking: "The 'big man' threatened them."
"Ah?" Wen Qi didn't react.
"The 'big guys' threatened them," Huai Jiamu repeated calmly, and continued to explain, "so they are unwilling to intervene."
The implication is that Wen Yiming encountered a sudden change and called other people for help, but they were all passing the buck and blaming each other in an attempt to distance themselves from the situation, so he smashed the phone.
"The 'big shot' threatened them?" Wen Qi's mind was stuck for a few seconds, "But how did he threaten? If he threatened, wouldn't it mean that he was responsible for my parents' deaths? Wouldn't he be self-destructing?"
Of course she had considered this possibility. Given the size of the "big shot", his threat would naturally prevent everyone from standing on Wen Yiming's side. But now, isn't the "big shot" in a difficult situation?
Lin Jianyu had enough trouble with what happened to him, and now he stood up and revealed that he had killed two people. Isn't this courting death?
"Guess what the boss is thinking," Huai Jiamu glanced at her calmly, "maybe the wind direction has changed."
Hearing the crying, he seemed to be thinking about something.
"It's working hours at this time." He looked at Wen Qi's face, tapped the edge of the bed with his fingers a few times, and added, "You said Xu Ke came to see you. Logically speaking, at this time, he would not leave the Abnormal Management Bureau except for field work."
"My parents' accident should have nothing to do with the Abnormal Management Bureau, right?" Wen Qi looked up.
"No," Huai Jiamu raised his eyebrows, "unless someone saw that the billboard flew onto the car by itself."
Otherwise, this accident would not be within the jurisdiction of the Abnormal Management Bureau. In other words, Xu Ke could not have been on a field trip.
It is a bit intriguing why he appeared outside Wen Qi's school with a team member at this time.
What's more, how did he know that something happened to Wen Qi's parents?
He arrived at the scene less than an hour after Wen Qi's parents died. The news hadn't even had time to break out and the police on the scene were still contacting the family. How did Xu Ke know so quickly?
Wen Qi frowned and finally realized what was wrong.
Why on earth did Xu Ke appear at this scene at this time?
Could the nine extra people who died last night and the "big shot" be related to him?
"No." Huai Jiamu seemed to have heard Wen Qi's inner voice, and suddenly spoke, pulling Wen Qi back to his senses.
The captain of the Abnormal Investigation Bureau knew Xu Ke. If he was related to that incident, he would not have been in the mood to come to Wen Qi today.
"You said...Xu Ke?" Wen Qi raised his head to confirm, and received a very slight nod from the other party.
Compared to Scarao, the captain of the Abnormal Investigation Bureau spoke in a much more concise way. Every sentence he said hit the point without any useless information. He didn't seem to be a talkative person.
As for the tone and accent when he spoke...it was similar to her teacher Skao.
I feel so indifferent that I don't even want to talk to a fool.
Fortunately, Wen Qi’s biggest advantage is that he does not take himself too seriously and will not take the title of “fool” on his own initiative.
The thought of the similar tones of the two people's conversation flashed through her mind, and she immediately returned to the incident itself. Since the other party said that Xu Ke had nothing to do with the nine people last night, then this matter had nothing to do with Xu Ke.
As for the original question, that is, why did Wen Yiming throw his phone...
Of the two options mentioned by Huai Jiamu, the meaning of [guessing the intentions of superiors] is very clear, that is, the people that Wen Yiming contacted knew that his parents' death was caused by a "big shot" or was related to a big shot. In order to avoid provoking the other party and getting themselves into trouble, they chose to avoid suspicion.
To achieve this effect, at least the prerequisite is that the "big shot" and his parents have been at odds for a long time, so that all relatives and friends can identify the murderer as the "big shot" as soon as they die.
But according to Wen Qi's understanding of these two people, before last night, their external image had always been to curry favor with the "big shot", and the "big shot" had no obvious intentions against them, so this possibility was unlikely.
Then the only possibility left is [the wind direction has changed].
Isn’t the “big shot” now in a difficult situation?
He had been unable to protect himself before, mainly because he was in a critical promotion period, with rivals eyeing him covetously, and Lin Jianyu's dirty deeds could be exposed at any time. Now he suddenly let go and threatened others...
Could it be that the person who died last night was his competitor?
The nine extra deaths last night must be related to the underworld. Could it be that besides Lin Jianyu, the "big shot" has other "little ghosts" who can kill others?
