At nine o'clock in the evening, Qin Jiandan took an armored bus into the inner city and did not even need to get off the bus when passing through the checkpoint. Seeing the other intruders raising their hands high under the intimidation of the Spider Chariot, a sense of superiority arose in their hearts.
"It's really convenient to have a Class B resident permit. It looks like my sister is super awesome!"
However, Linlin's statement that she wanted to hack the patrol drones in the inner city and continuously monitor her was probably a lie - the closer she got to the Central Tower of Ringstone City, the more aggressive the wireless network's offensive firewall became.
There were only a few passengers on the armored bus. Through the bulletproof glass window, Qin Jiandan saw the towering central tower supporting the "Bright Sky Canopy" in the distance.
The planet where Ringstone City is located naturally has air that humans can breathe. However, due to the presence of the unique mineral "phlogiston coal", toxic particles called "phlogiston ash" often drift in the air. To make an analogy, it is roughly equivalent to the haze PM2.5 in the earth's era, but the toxicity is increased by 100 times.
The "Mingguang Canopy" developed by Central Tower Company is the lifeblood of Huanshi City. This protective shield, shimmering in the air, will neutralize toxic phlogiston ash to the greatest extent possible.
Of course, the inner city is closer to the central tower and is more protected than the outer city.
"Speaking of which, is the reason why Master got lung cancer related to the fact that he has been living in an outer city?"
Qin Qi, the president of the Night Dragon Society, is rumored to have even stayed away from Huanshi City and explored the dark desert alone without any light protection. This kind of suicidal behavior is unthinkable to ordinary people. Unless they are debt-ridden and forced by the company to mine phlogiston coal, no one is willing to voluntarily leave the shadow of Mingguang and leave the large crater where Ringstone City is located.
Although "phlogiston coal" produces toxins when used, it is generally a super energy source. Whether it is Linlin's surveillance computer or the armored bus underneath, they are all powered by phlogiston energy batteries.
Of course, there are also large cruise airships with neon lights flashing against the backdrop of the central tower and starless night.
In addition to the uncomfortable slogan "loyal to the company" in large fonts, the condescending airship also repeatedly played a rigid male electronic sound:
"...Residents are requested to cooperate sincerely and work for the company in exchange for a better tomorrow for Huanshi City. Warning: If you are evaluated as not producing benefits for the company for 30 consecutive days, you will be deprived of your inner city resident status, so please pay attention."
Linlin mentioned that residents are being upgraded to Class A licenses every hour. The reason is that residents are downgraded to D level and expelled from the inner city every hour. This is a normal metabolism for Huanshi City.
There were still 10 minutes to drive from the destination. Qin Jiandan, who was bored, picked up a magazine that others had discarded next to his seat and flipped through it.
The biotechnology around Stone City is a breakthrough compared to the Earth's era. The "regeneration chamber" that can quickly heal broken limbs as long as you have the money is an example. However, digital technology has regressed, or the company has intentionally monopolized advanced digital technology, turning everyone into a version of the Earth in the 1980s that doesn't even have mobile phones.
The magazine in my hand, with acceptable printing quality, is called "Crime Fighter". It is a popular publication with loyal readers in both the inner city and the outer city.
"The tragic death of Watanabe Jiro, a leader of the Night Dragon Society, was actually assassinated during a secret meeting with his lover in the inner city!" 》
The magazine was obviously well-informed. The murder that just happened last night had a headline full of interesting news in less than half a day.
The content of the news was similar to the information Qin Jiandan knew about the organization, which made him suspect that "Crime Fighters" also had spies in the Night Dragon Society.
There was a photo of the scene that Qin Jiandan had never seen before. In the photo, Watanabe Jiro was lying face down on the carpet, his head was bloody and bloody, but Qin Jiandan could see that the bloody hole in his back was the fatal injury.
On the wall next to it, written with the blood of the victims, "Everyone in the Night Dragon Society must die! You only deserve to be scalped by us like Indians!"
"So it turns out that Watanabe was humiliated after his death and had his scalp cut off as a souvenir?"
The canine teeth of Qin Jiandan's upper and lower jaws bite together.
"It's very Nianhui style... Although Watanabe has no personal relationship with me, insulting the Yelonghui is insulting my master. Now that I have the mission of being a young master, I can't ignore it. I will definitely make the Nianhui pay the corresponding price. !”
The current president of the Nian Society is named Alexander. He is a racist madman who thinks he is the reincarnation of Alexander the Great.
The full name of the Neanderthal Society is the "Neanderthal Guild." According to Dr. Li of the Yelong Society, the founder of the Neanderthal Society misunderstood the evolutionary theory of the Earth Age and believed that Westerners were different from Easterners. "Homo sapiens" evolved from "Neanderthals" during the same period.
All in all, in the eyes of the founders, Westerners were superior to Easterners, so Neanderthals must also be superior to Homo sapiens. The "Neanhui" are the heirs of a superior race that have inherited Neanderthal genes, and their natural mission is to kill all the Orientals, the descendants of Homo sapiens.
They did plan to do this. During the "Meridian War" 20 years ago, the Nian Society stole the company's genetic weapons and spread them. Fortunately, they were stopped by the Night Dragon Society led by Qin Qi. But the genetic weapons are still partially effective. There are no black people in Ringstone City today because they were exterminated by the Nian Society in that war.
Therefore, some people jokingly call the Nian Church the "Nico Adventist Church"...
The report on "The Tragic Death of Watanabe Jiro" was very long. Qin Jiandan turned over the page and saw the text description at the end:
"The body of a woman was also found not far away. After investigation, she was Mariana, the lover of Watanabe Jiro's secret meeting. Judging from the traces at the scene, Watanabe Jiro may have been injured before starting the fight to protect his lover. But the two were eventually brutally killed by the murderer..."
Judging from the photos of the murder, Watanabe was killed without even taking out the sword from his waist, which does not meet the expected strength of a cadre of the fighting faction of the Night Dragon Society.
"The "Electronic Iai Slash" that Watanabe is good at is a quick sword-drawing technique, isn't it? The assassins of the Nian Society probably took advantage of Watanabe's mentality of protecting his lover and injured Watanabe's right hand first, right? "
Despicable guy! If you are caught by me, I will have to repeat the pain Watanabe suffered on you 100 times!
"Wait a minute... Before going out, Linlin told me not to look for women in the inner city. Could it be that she was also affected by Watanabe's incident and worried that I would be killed for protecting my lover?"
"Hahaha, how is that possible! The "Steel Armor Breathing Technique" taught to me by my master is invincible! And why should I risk my life for the coquettish bitch in the inner city? "
As he spoke, on the right side of the news about "The Tragic Death of Watanabe", a large photo taking up half of the page was hard to ignore. In the photo, there is a sassy policewoman with long, straight black hair down to her waist, neatly dressed in police uniform and police cap, who seems to be receiving an award from the Police Department.
The plurality of news headlines next to it are "Graduated from the special training base with honors, daughter inherited her father's career", "Careful mind, solved 6 unsolved cases in the inner city", "The youngest police chief in history, Chief Mu Yue, who is responsible for the security of the 12th District in the inner city" 》
The city police are the lackeys of the company and the enemies of the Night Dragon Society. Brother Hu Chi was misunderstood for robbery because he asked for directions, so he was released from prison after being imprisoned for 8 years.
Although the policewoman in the photo is very beautiful and her bust under the uniform is also very prominent, Qin Jiandan, as an outsider with a resident level of D, cannot have any favorable impression of the inner city police chief.
"Hmph, this pampered young lady who came from nowhere actually learned to play house by being a police chief?"
Qin Jiandan tapped the picture of the policewoman in the magazine to show contempt.
"Responsible for the security of District 12? It happens to be where I'm going tonight... Don't interfere with my investigation tonight by interfering with other people's business. Otherwise, with such a small body with no muscles, you will be easily touched by me." Dead!"
Ah, the point where she poked to show contempt was exactly what the policewoman's breasts looked like. This must be a coincidence! It has absolutely nothing to do with Qin Jiandan being a virgin!
※※※
Just at the internal reception of the Police Department, Han Muyue was announced to be promoted to the Special Service Sergeant of District 12, and the resident level was also upgraded to Class A.
After leaving the reception, she still lacked a sense of reality. She parked the police car on the side of the road and walked alone towards the cold riverside house.
"Special Service Sergeant of District 12" is not as impressive as it sounds. The inner city is divided into 12 sectors, and each sector has a standing sergeant and a special service sergeant, who are responsible for daily police dispatches and special case investigations.
The real power of the special service sergeant is not as great as that of the standing sergeant. He is often involved in dangerous cases and has a high death rate in the line of duty. From this perspective, there is nothing to celebrate about becoming a special service sergeant at such a young age.
"As long as I can investigate the case, it's fine. I'm not a city police officer just to get ahead..."
Because he was not used to the social atmosphere of cocktail parties, Chief Mu Yue asked two close friends to receive his colleagues on his behalf, and he drove out of the police station in advance.
I still remember how troublesome the police chief's long speech and "ardent expectations" were at the cocktail party. The little red wine that was not allowed to be drunk out of politeness also caused waves of protests in the usually calm brain.
"I should have just said that, not counting drunk driving... It's not good to know and break the law just after being promoted to police chief. But even if I return to the police station to surrender now, everyone is busy drinking, so no one will pay attention to me."
He left the reception in a hurry and didn't have time to change out of his police uniform.
Although the main color is dark blue, compared with the usual duty uniforms, the jacket is looser, and there is also a beautiful golden tassel ribbon next to the decorative pocket on the chest. As for the bottoms, she did not wear trousers and training shoes that are convenient for running, but a charming combination of short skirts, black stockings and high heels.
This kind of dress is definitely not suitable for chasing fugitives, but it is too early to go back to the dormitory at this time.
It would be a good idea to make the most of your time by going to the crime scene to listen to the witnesses.
"Hello, I am District 12 Special Service Sergeant Han Muyue. I would like to ask about the murder next door."
After pressing the doorbell, Chief Mu Yue showed a police smile to the old lady wearing glasses who came out to open the door, hoping to lower her alertness.
"Do you have anything to add about the victim, Jiro Watanabe, and your neighbor, Miss Mariana, who is also a victim? Did you see any suspicious people around before and after the murder?"
Seeing the old lady's unresponsiveness, Chief Mu Yue remembered that he had forgotten something very important.
"No, I'm sorry. This is my ID. Please look at it carefully."
I actually forgot about the requirement to show my ID first during evidence collection and investigation. Sure enough, I’m still not used to drinking...
After the originally calm old lady took the ID, as soon as she saw the photo of the policewoman on the ID, she started to tremble all over and her tone became excited.
"Yes! Yes! It's her! This girl appeared nearby after the murder! But... I can't remember when she appeared!"
Grandma, didn’t I just show up and still stand in front of you? It seems that the authenticity of all the testimony provided by this witness is open to question...
