Embers Ad Infinitum - Vol 2.2 Chapter 15
Jiang Baimian didn’t answer Shang Jianyao’s question, but looked at Long Yuehong and left him the opportunity to analyze.
Long Yuehong thought for a while and said:
“Excluding the possibility of fraudulent surveillance video, the murderer should be hiding in a room around the route. If he only has the level of the ‘Sea of Origin’, it is enough to search the rooms on both sides of the road. If he enters the ‘mind’ Corridor’, then rooms in other nearby streets should also be included in the investigation.”
That route refers to the route taken by Mu Qingqing’s father, Mu Renjie, from his home to the nearest public toilet, starting from his home and ending at the place where he fell to the ground, drawing a circle outward.
“Why do you rule out the possibility of fake surveillance video?” Shang Jianyao asked uncommonly.
Long Yuehong frowned:
“The risk of detection is too high.
“When the ‘Rite of Life’ sect performed the ‘God Punishment’ before, it didn’t do it.
“From a path-dependency perspective, if they had used the method of modifying surveillance video and it really worked, they would have done the same last time.”
Slap clap, Shang Jianyao applauded. .
Bai Chen also smiled and nodded.
This made Long Yuehong’s self-confidence a little inflated.
He hastily added:
“Besides, the surveillance video has been deleted, it is impossible to confirm whether it is true or not, and the original supervisor of the surveillance department also hanged himself because of the ‘life sacrificial’ sect. For the time being, the surveillance video is real.”
“Then why don’t the rooms on the same route on the upper and lower floors also be included in the investigation scope?” Shang Jianyao asked instead, “The coverage of the Awakener’s ability is not flat.”
Long Yuehong organized the language and said:
“I think the possibility of accurate positioning is not high when the line of sight is blocked. For the same reason, the probability of the murderer hiding in other rooms on other streets is not high.
“What if it was Mu Renjie’s wife who went to the public toilet that night?”
“Then she might be the one who died.” Shang Jian Yaoyin sneered.
Hiss…a few words suddenly popped out of Long Yuehong’s mind:
“Murder indiscriminately!”
“Wait!” He snapped back to his senses, “We associate Mu Renjie’s death with the ‘Rite of Life’ order because he died of a heart attack, and he inherited the old world’s talisman folklore, painting He has too many children and many grandchildren, and his wife does not meet the conditions at all.”
If it really is indiscriminate killing, then all the reasoning before the “Old Tune Group” is wrong, and there is no way to connect with the “Rite of Life” sect.
Jiang Baimian nodded lightly and was about to comment when Shang Jianyao suggested another possibility:
“Maybe Mu Renjie was implanted with the corresponding thinking in advance, and he would definitely go to the public toilet at that time, so it would be very easy to lock him down.
“It’s impossible for his wife to go to the public toilet at that time, right?”
“Will this be too complicated?” Long Yuehong expressed his doubts.
Mu Renjie is not a powerful character.
“It’s not complicated.” Shang Jianyao laughed, “When you lived in Xiaobai’s room that day, you got up at 3:00 in the middle of the night to go to the public toilet, because I implanted the corresponding thinking.”
He was a joking and mischievous man who looked triumphant.
“…” Long Yuehong opened her mouth, “It turned out to be you! Didn’t you say that you disdain using the Awakener ability on me?”
Shang Jian Yao spread his hands:
“It’s definitely not going to be serious business, it’s okay to joke around.”
Bai Chen joined the discussion:
“I think your statement is wrong.
“If you really want to implant some kind of thinking into Mu Renjie in advance, there are more and better ways to make him die silently, without any oddities.”
“Yes, it can be done. For example, when repairing the light bulb at home, I am negligent and get electrocuted.” Shang Jianyao replied without any stamina, as if he was not the one who proposed the possibility of thinking implantation just now.
Long Yuehong was at a loss for a while:
“Then why do you say that Mu Renjie may have been implanted with corresponding thinking in advance?”
“Isn’t this to elicit the fact that I once implanted your thoughts into you and made you go to the toilet in the middle of the night?” Shang Jianyao replied confidently, “If you did a prank, it would be boring if you couldn’t be known by the target!”
The cheerful and joking Hello is also a bad guy at heart… Jiang Baimian made a comment next to him.
She then concluded:
“As long as letting the target die of heart problems is not a ritual insisted on by the ‘Rite of Life’ sect, then the problem is most likely to lie in the rooms on both sides of the corresponding route.
“This involves dozens of households and hundreds of people. Some of them later changed their rooms and went to other floors because of their marriage. It is very difficult to check them one by one, and it must have the cooperation of the company.”
Once reported to the company, the hidden members of the “Rite of Life” sect may intercept the information in advance and clear the clues.
Shang Jianyao thought for a while, and his eyes suddenly lit up:
“How about I invade the radio station, disguise as a Houyi, and hide the ‘thought guide’ in a certain news?
“I can currently affect more than 100 targets at the same time, just enough to check everyone on that route.”
Jiang Baimian’s mouth moved slightly:
“How much do you want to hack into the radio station?”
This is the first time such a suggestion has been made!
Then, she poured cold water on Shang Jianyao:
“Also, why are you disguised as Houyi?”
Shang Jianyao was stunned for a few seconds, then sighed and said:
“It’s good that Lao Ge is here, and he can make a voice changer by hand.”
Can Laoge’s handmade really be considered handmade? Long Yuehong suddenly had such a doubt.
Jiang Baimian sighed and said:
“The easiest way is, when you submit the report to Director Su, apply for a meeting, chat with him about Mu Renjie, and let him arrange a follow-up investigation.
“If there are people from the ‘Rite of Life’ sect on the board of directors, then we don’t need to work any more, just wash ourselves and wait for the belief in the ‘Sacrificial Life’.”
Shang Jianyao nodded, stretched out his hands, shook the baby gently in his arms, and said loudly:
“In the end, it will belong to Si Ming!”
Jiang Baimian first gave this guy a blank look, and then asked amusingly:
“I remember you said, ‘In the end, it will belong to Si Ming’ is used when there is a life lost.
“Will this be unlucky?”
“Don’t pay attention to such details.” Shang Jianyao quickly changed the subject, “When the computer comes back, I will start writing the report.”
Because he didn’t have to set up a phone in his room for the time being, he was slack again.
In the afternoon, the items found by the “Old Tune Team” were reviewed and distributed, along with their rewards.
Jiang Baimian is still at the D9 level and has not yet been able to enter the management, but the above hints that she will wait until she has explored the last Buddhist holy place, found the real location of the Eighth Research Institute or the whereabouts of Shang Yao’s father’s old-fashioned team. Let her be promoted to m1, the same level as her father Jiang Wenfeng.
Both Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong are d8, and Bai Chen is d7.
In addition to the increase in rank, they counted the field allowance, and each received a reward of 30,000 contribution points.
My monthly basic salary is now 5300 points, the allowance is 1300, the basic salary of Xiaobai is 4800, the allowance is 1100, we can get 12500 contribution points a month together… Long Yuehong instinctively calculated it in his heart.
This kind of income is almost seven times what he had when he first started working, enough to support a family of four who have meat for every meal and often eat fruits and snacks.
Coupled with the large room that must be assigned according to his and Bai Chen’s rank, Long Yuehong couldn’t help but raise the corners of her mouth when she thought of the future.
Seeing his appearance, Jiang Baimian laughed and laughed:
“Sunday is only two days away. Would you like to practice meeting your parents in advance?”
“Yes, yes!” Shang Jianyao was excited.
“Uh…” Although Long Yuehong didn’t think it needed practice, she was still a little clueless.
After all, it was also the first time he brought his future wife home.
“Okay.” Bai Chen replied seriously.
Jiang Baimian then laughed and said:
“Practice is not necessary, but I can tell you some precautions.”
“Hmm.” Bai Chen didn’t refuse.
Shang Jianyao suddenly looked disappointed and regretful.
“What is your expression?” Jiang Baimian glanced at him.
Shang Jianyao sighed and said:
“If you really want to practice, you must find someone to play Xiaohong’s father.”
Long Yuehong suddenly felt that he had escaped the disaster.
…………
Level 495, Block B, No. 196.
Shang Jianyao returned home. Seeing that it was still early, he lay down on the bed and entered the “Spiritual Corridor”.
He pushed open the door of room “506” and stepped inside.
Immediately before his eyes, the family area of the Fourth Research Institute appeared.
There are many buildings and trees here. Most of the people who come and go know each other. They often stop and chat a few words. The atmosphere is peaceful and peaceful.
Shang Jianyao walked around at will, and found that the psychological shadow had returned to the state when he first entered.
This is the most normal situation, similar to the shadow of a cruise ship, which is a very special case.
After walking around like this, and after meeting many people, Shang Jian Yao rubbed his chin and “talked to himself”:
“How do you deal with painful memories?”
“It’s very simple, turn your face with the people here first!” The reckless Shang Jianyao gave his advice.
After a while of “discussion”, the businessmen decided to give it a try.
He slowly paced to the gate area~www.mtlnovel.com~ was only one meter away from the place where he was injured before.
Then, Shang Jian Yao showed a military exoskeleton device and got ready.
He jumped into the danger zone and jumped back suddenly, swinging on the edge of the “cliff”.
A dull roar sounded instantly.
What happened this time was not an explosion. The entire ground cracked open, and red molten lava rushed out.
Shang Jian Yao avoided it, rolled back to a safe place, and cheered happily:
“The owner of the room has seen a volcano erupt!”
At this time, the expressions of those in the family area became cold, like corpses without emotion.
Shang Jianyao straightened his body and walked over with a smile.
He wanted to see how the painful memories affected him!
