Li Sa has been helping Director Li run errands these days, and has been exposed to the rules and regulations of the property.
She learned that the company provided additional death insurance to every employee who officially joined the company as a security guard, and the beneficiaries were relatives of the security guard. At that time, two security guards and two people from the property maintenance team died when the dormitory building collapsed. Their compensation plans were different. The family members of the deceased security guard can apply for an additional 400,000 yuan compensation from the insurance company. The maintenance team's normal salary is very high. Unless they buy insurance themselves, the compensation they may receive after death is not as high as that of the security guard.
However, the application process for death insurance is very cumbersome and requires immediate family members. Jiang Mei is Jiang Qin's cousin and cannot do it for her. The insurance company also asked for cremation certificates and the like. Since it was a homicide, the body was not cremated for the time being and was kept at the Public Security Bureau for autopsy. So the application process hasn’t started yet.
Jiang Qin's father may come to the city in the near future, and Jiang Mei will definitely receive him. However, the entire city has been experiencing heavy rain for seven consecutive days, which has broken the previous record. At this time, transportation connections with the outside world have basically stopped. Planes and trains have been detoured, and ships and cars have been suspended unless necessary.
Jiang Mei didn't know how people from her hometown could come here unless they drove themselves. She didn't want the old man to go through such trouble, so she paid attention to the case, and planned to wait for the cremation certificate to arrive, then complete all the prerequisite procedures, lay the groundwork, and then invite people from her hometown.
Under the current situation, Jiang Mei couldn't wait. She couldn't help with the case. The only thing she could do was to complete the work at hand and help Director Li stabilize the property team in the villa area. After a busy period of time and the rain stopped, I had the nerve to ask for leave and accompany people from my hometown to deal with Jiang Qin's funeral affairs.
After thinking about this clearly, Jiang Mei stopped inquiring about the case, settled down at the club, and immediately got to work.
Li Sa figured out from their conversation that the police station might have discovered something wrong. Qian Qiang is just an ordinary security guard with little experience in dealing with interrogations. After being taken to the police station, he will probably explain everything he saw and heard and even the crazy thoughts in his head.
Sure enough, a few minutes later, Director Li did not wait for news from Qian Qiang. Instead, he received a call from the police station, saying that they would send two police officers to the villa area to investigate the case later, and hoped that all property employees and owners related to the case would be involved. Please cooperate with me, especially naming Li Sa, saying that you need to have a private meeting to supplement the transcript.
The incident happened suddenly, and it was too late for Li Sa to discuss with Zhou Ming face to face how to deal with it. If it was just an ordinary case investigation, she knew how to say it. What if the local experts in this world were aware of strange powers, such as the existence of "players"? She didn't want to be implicated and taken to the police station.
Most of the police stations in this city are multi-story low-rise buildings facing the street. The buildings are very old. When the heavy rain continues into the next week, the city's various infrastructures will be overloaded and collapse, and the streets will become rivers. The buildings of the police stations will I'm afraid I can't protect myself, so it's not a good place to take refuge.
However, now I tell people at the police station that heavy rains and floods are events that should be taken more seriously. No one believes it. In the eyes of normal people, human life is at stake. So many people died mysteriously in the villa area, and some people are missing. This is different from the subsidence and subsidence next door. Is there any connection between chemical waste leaks? The police station suspected that there were security issues and whether a terrorist organization was deliberately causing damage. Following this line of inquiry, it might not be easy to explain someone like her who suddenly appeared in the villa area.
While waiting for someone to come from the police station, Li Sa hid in the women's toilet cubicle of the club and sent a message to Zhou Ming.
Zhou Ming replied almost instantly: I asked Li Tianya to use his identity as the owner to ask you to go to the rescue, and you avoid the police.
Li Sa said: Qian Qiang knows that I have also discovered the anomaly in No. 9, Building B. In order to prove his innocence, he must ask for a comparative statement from me. If I avoid it, it will look suspicious.
Zhou Ming’s tip: Just describe what you see. What you don’t see is other people’s imagination and has nothing to do with you.
Li Sa was right. At that time, she and Qian Qiang saw basically the same scene. It was Qian Qiang who reacted first and took her away to hide. She told the truth, and then she offered to stay to see the situation. Qian Qiang went out to find Director Li. Then the two separated, and no witnesses knew what she had done. Just put some effort into making up that part.
Li Sa suddenly remembered that people might check her mobile phone. However, hers was a terminal. It looked similar to a real mobile phone but was not the same thing at all. She had an idea, turned off the sound on the terminal, stuffed it into a large garbage bag together with the waterproof bag she usually carried, and threw it into the preparation room of the bathroom.
At present, she helps take out the garbage in the private bathrooms of these properties, and no one will rush to do such dirty work. It's stored in a garbage bag, so you don't have to worry about safety when locked in a place like the women's restroom.
She guessed that the people from the police station would not stay in the villa area for too long, let alone conduct such detailed investigations. Just questioning and taking notes would be enough for them.
In a city where players are in and out and natural disasters occur frequently, the police force may not be too idle. There will be more murders in the future. These days, the system notifications show that several to more than a dozen players are being reduced every day. Even for a female property employee like her who has nothing new to watch in her daily life, the ranking of the live broadcast room has steadily increased, which shows that many players who rank high in the live broadcast room have died.
When a player dies in a natural disaster world, their bodies will not disappear. Only their terminals and system props will disappear.
The sudden appearance of corpses without any identification will be noticed sooner or later.
As for people like the scheming girl who disappeared without leaving a body, I'm afraid someone will notice. For example, the male writer Xue Minfan has been extremely silent these days. He has been staying at home and doesn't know what he is doing.
Nowadays, the property management company conducts routine inspections every day, checking whether there are people living in each house that lights up at night, and understanding their safety conditions and regular needs. The management company can help if they can.
Li Sa heard from the patrolling security guard that Xue Minfan was indeed at home, but it was different from the previous state where he loved to join in the fun and inquire about other people's affairs. He became taciturn and had dark bags under his eyes. When asked, he said he was working on a manuscript. That's why the work and rest are unstable.
Li Sa guessed that if the people from the police station were careful enough this time, they might ask Xue Minfan to learn about the situation.
This time two male police officers came to the police station, one old and one young. The older one with gray hair asked the younger one to talk to others, and found a place to sit alone with Li Sa to understand the situation.
The old policeman showed a kind expression, as if chatting about family matters, and asked: "Li Sa, right? I just heard from Director Li that you only joined the job seven days ago. It started raining heavily that day, and your probation period has not yet passed?"
Li Sa nodded and answered basic questions in the old policeman's usual way.
When she gradually relaxed, the old policeman suddenly changed the subject and asked: "Qian Qiang said that you and he witnessed strange things at the door of No. 9 of Building B, and that something dirty controlled four people. Did you really see it at that time? Are there four of us?"
