Chapter 309: Reasons for Suspicion
Although he was very reluctant to make such suspicions, in fact, according to the series of situations just now, Yi Cheng still had to point the object of his "suspect" to Mao Lili, a female criminal police officer who had initially established a friendly relationship with him.
The reason for the suspicion is simple...... The timing and reason for her appearance this time is really too coincidental.
Whether it's tracking down a suspect or coming around here and raising a gun to warn her, in Yicheng's opinion, it's better to use it than a reason for her to show up...... It was more appropriate for her to use the excuse she used to perfectly disguise her presence here.
If there is any basis for such suspicions, then the dragoon's statement that "the banshee suddenly appeared and disappeared" can probably also be used as evidence.
In addition, there is actually one more thing that really makes Yi Cheng suspicious.
"The shot just now was fired too abruptly, although it can be understood that he noticed the crisis of the situation and shot decisively, but the fact that the opponent is a woman, any criminal policeman, in that case, I am afraid should not do that."
Although Xiao Aili is obviously not a good person to talk to and listen to, this kind of self-talk behavior can allow Yi Cheng to sort out the vague impression in his mind into a smooth clue.
"In addition, before shooting, Mao Lili did not fire a warning shot, but directly chose to shoot at the target, I remember, this should also be in line with the rules and regulations of the criminal police......"
"All in all, you've been suspicious of her from the beginning."
"Hmm."
In response to Ellie's perfunctory question, Yi Cheng also nodded seriously.
In fact, this suspicion has already begun since it was learned that the mastermind behind the last vampire incident was a "banshee".
After all, in the archives of the Savior's Office, Mao Lili's abilities are registered as "Banshees" - although it is unclear if this is related to the legendary Banshee, but it is barely enough to use it as an argument for skepticism, at least for tonight.
"Since you are suspicious, why don't you follow the rules and regulations of the Savior Management Office and subdue her and bring her back to the Savior Management Office for memory confirmation?"
"Because it's just a suspicion, if you really do that, it's okay to confirm it, if it's a negative answer, then at least for a long time, my heart won't feel good."
The "rules and regulations" that Ellie refers to are very clear - at the scene of the supernatural ability incident, when there are ordinary humans or supernatural abilities whose identity and purpose cannot be confirmed, the savior has the right to take any means to bring them back to the savior's management office for interrogation and investigation, and after confirming the reasonableness of their existence, they can also take necessary amnestics to erase this part of the memory as a remedy.
It sounds like a reasonable system, but for Yi Cheng, who is more resistant to the means of "manipulating memory", even if he erases Mao Lili's memory, but doubting his friends and doing such an excessive thing to his friends will still leave him with a lot of psychological burden.
After listening to Yi Cheng's explanation, Xiao Aili thought seriously for a moment.
"Is this kind of behavior called pity and pity among human beings, or is it indecision?"
"Shut up!"
"Body Language Function Off......"
Xiao Ellie, who followed Yi Cheng's order and directly turned off the language function, naturally remained silent along the way, but in Yi Cheng's heart, he was still thinking about whether his behavior was correct tonight.
Because, what was conceived just now is based on the premise that "Mao Lili has nothing to do with the incident", and if Mao Lili is really the "banshee" who created these two incidents, then, will there be ordinary people who die innocently because of her?
Do this...... Is it right or wrong?
***********************
Following.
"I'm back......"
returned home weakly, and let his passionate girlfriend Fang Fang quietly wipe his face and hands for himself. Sitting at the dining table, looking at the steaming breakfast on the table, Yi Cheng, who was on an empty stomach, had no appetite at all.
"What's wrong?"
Crystal noticed Yi Cheng's state for the first time, put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand and asked in a low voice.
"There was another incident last night."
After Yi Cheng thought about it, on the grounds that he was "too tired and wanted to sleep", he left Fang Fang quietly, and then told Crystal the whole story of last night's incident.
And after listening to all this, Crystal tilted her head and thought for a moment, then asked the first question.
"Is the Spirit Breaker alright?"
"Well, after the examination, there should be no major problems, just suffocation and cerebral hypoxia caused by simple strangulation, and after treatment, I have happily gone home in the morning."
In fact, even Cat, who disappeared at the time, fled directly back to the Savior's Office, as the Dragoons said, and when Yi Cheng found her in the corner of the underground warehouse wall, the girl called "Meow" by the Dragoons was curled up in it and shivering, looking really frightened.
"I have no impression of the woman you are talking about."
As one of the oldest saviors in the Savior's Office, Crystal gave the same answer to the woman who mysteriously appeared and disappeared as the Red Mentor last night.
That's right, even the Red Mentor, after looking at the mecha preserved, about the woman's body and posture, can't confirm her identity at all, of course, there is at least one thing that the Red Mentor can be sure, that is...... The image preserved in the mecha is actually an illusion deliberately created by the "mysterious enemy".
"Even a woman with an evil villain can't really fart. Running all over the streets, you have played too much GAL, young man. ”
Yi Cheng, who was angry at being complained about by the Red Mentor, still doesn't think that there is anything wrong with his eyes - only this, he can use his male instinct to guarantee that it is definitely a real bare fart. Strand villain teeth!
"Anyway, as long as everyone is okay."
comforting Yi Cheng with such words, it can be seen that Crystal is also very concerned about the situation facing the Savior Management Office now, but unfortunately, now that she is suspended, she can't help at all, and the only thing she can do is probably to guard Yi Cheng during the day to ensure that he will not be hurt by the "extra-spec ability" who is hostile to the members of the aftercare department.
"Speaking of the person with the ability to be out of specification, I actually have a suspicion right now......"
After telling Crystal about the "Banshee" and the suspicions related to Mao Lili, Yi Cheng naturally connected everything that had happened recently through such clues.
"So I think that this 'banshee' who has recently caused a series of incidents is likely to be the one with the same out-of-specification ability who also caused the aftermath of the total annihilation incident, and only in this way can we explain why vampires and druids appeared in the imperial capital."
He still remembered that the so-called "out-of-specification ability" had somehow deceived the self-confident "all-knowing" Bai Ze and made her mistakenly think that the mutant creature had died, and that was the tragic incident that happened.
And what is happening now makes sense if it is explained for the same reason.
"You said it too, it's just a suspicion."
"yes, just suspicion...... But at least it's a subject of suspicion, isn't it? ”
Just as Yi Cheng said this, there was a sudden sound of soft knocking outside the door.
"Ah, it's you, Mao Lili."
Opening the door, Yi Cheng saw a tired Mao Lili standing upright at the door.
"Well, I have something to tell you."
Seeing Yi Cheng, Mao Lili, who didn't talk nonsense, cut straight to the point.
"Our criminal police team found a shriveled male corpse at a waste disposal station near the community last night."
As she spoke, she handed a photo of the scene to Yi Cheng.
Yi Cheng just glanced at it, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
The state of this shriveled corpse, the appearance of a foreigner......
"It seems that I am not wrong."
Seeing Yi Cheng's expression, Mao Lili sighed with relief.
"So, this matter will be handed over to your Savior Management Office next, is it okay?"
"Okay."
Yi Cheng nodded, and then watched the tired Mao Lili leave with heavy steps.
"Again...... Coincidental? ”
Looking at the photo in his hand, Yi Cheng could almost confirm that this guy was the druid who escaped last night.
But because of that......
Mao Lili's suspicion is probably going to deepen again.
