is similar to An Yizhi's guess, after losing Fielding, the backer of the police station, An Yizhi's position on the three of them became delicate.

Originally, they had been invited by Fielding to help, but this matter was self-proclaimed, and the bureau was acquiescing.

But acquiescence means that it cannot be put on the table, and some police officers may even feel that asking for foreign aid is an insult to them.

The local policeman who was born and raised can't handle it, and he still needs to ask someone else to help, are you all white-collar workers?

That's pretty much what it means.

In the conversation with An Yizhi just now, Thomson has been answering steadily, and there is nothing to say about the case, but you can't jump out of anything wrong with him.

There is only one meaning revealed in the words.

It's our job, you outsiders, stay where you go.

However, although his attitude was expected and reasonable, there was still a big problem.

Although the players were invited by Fielding as foreign helpers, although others did not know about it, it was somewhat acquiescing, after all, James went to pick up the three of them with great fanfare, and no one raised any objections to it. And immediately after Fielding's death, he came to cross the river and tear down the bridge.

Is it because they have found some conclusive evidence and want to take the credit for themselves, or is it ......

There are some problems with the police themselves?

The situation is getting more and more complicated, the more An Yizhi thinks about it, the more he feels that his brain is messed up, and in this case, he will not get any answer if he barely thinks about it, it is better to sort it out again, and it is easier to check one line at a time.

The three of them found a secluded place outside the blockade, and An Yizhi asked:

"Are there any clues in the car?"

Liyuan Shangcao nodded, he pointed to Xiang An what he saw in the car, and at the end, he handed over the BP machine.

"It is foreseeable that Fielding must have mastered something, otherwise he would not have been killed, and the person who did it was exactly the same as the person who dumped the body on the other side of the sewage pipe."

This can be seen from the cause of death, the two are almost identical, the difference is that the female corpse was dumped in the sewage pipe after death elsewhere.

"Shall we investigate the cause of Fielding's death next, or will we continue to investigate the disappearance?"

An Yi fiddled with the BP machine with one finger, and said when he heard the words:

"Now that we have some clues on hand and a direction for investigation, I guess the system wants us to investigate separately, but this is more dangerous, and in order to be safe, we are still focusing on collecting intelligence."

"Direction? What is the direction of investigation? ”

The brave is invincible and confused, and he has to explain to the grass on the plain:

"Originally, there was no clue about the disappearance, the discovery of the two bodies is likely to be an important clue, Fielding obtained this clue so he incurred the murder, our investigation direction is 'why did he die', as long as we investigate this clearly, we can catch the culprit in the disappearance, at least one of the three"

"Yes, and we have other things to look into, but for now, I need a pay phone."

The old BP machine could only display numbers, and Ann found a phone number on the BP machine belonging to Fielding, which was supposed to be the last message he received.

Although there were no mobile phones in this era, at least the public telephone facilities were not bad, and the three of them easily found a public phone booth nearby, stuffed a coin into it, and dialed according to the number on the BP machine.

There was a few beeps, and Ann heard the microphone being picked up, accompanied by a very harsh murmur, which sounded a bit like a chainsaw or something.

"Hello?"

A man's voice came from the microphone, and he didn't seem to be very old, about 30~40 years old.

"I, Qin Shi Huang, hit the money!"

"Huh?"

Through the phone, you can imagine that the other party is confused.

"The earth is high and high, and the rivers and mountains are beautiful through the ages."

“hat？ What do you mean? Who are you? ”

In fact, An Yizhi didn't know what he was talking about, he just talked nonsense.

This call is likely to be related to Fielding's death, he had better not reveal his identity, and if he pretends to be a police officer, the other party is likely to hang up directly, he just wants to roughly judge the other party's basic information through the voice on the other end of the phone, anyway, there is no caller ID in this era, and it doesn't matter if you make a dozen harassing calls.

“to be or not to be。”

"Who's calling?"

"I don't know, it's a guy who talks nonsense."

Another man's voice came from the phone, and Ann fingered a faint murmur, which was the voice of an ambulance.

Then the phone was hung up.

Walking out of the phone booth, An Yi pointed to the voice he had just heard on the phone, and said to his two companions:

"It was probably a lumberyard in the suburbs, and I heard the sound of a chainsaw."

立立原上草 says:

"But this small city is famous for its timber business, and there are more than a dozen or twenty lumber yards, should we investigate them one by one?"

"Then let's do a carpet search, stupid methods can sometimes be useful"

"No, brave man, your method can't work, it's easy to startle the snake, and in the worst case, we will be in danger."

"Brother An, just now you seem to be calling me stupid again......"

"That's your delusion."

The Brave Are Invincible: "......"

If there are no more clues, it is really the only way to do it, but the system will not arrange it this way because it will take too much time.

The process of a dungeon,Usually only 4~6 hours (real time),Not longer,Converted to the game, it is about 24 hours,More than six hours have passed since they entered the dungeon,The remaining time is definitely not enough to check slowly,The system will not arrange the plot like this,So there must be a way to lock the other party's location as soon as possible。

"First, we need a map."

Ann pointed and looked around, Fielding's home was not too far from the bar where the three of them had been drinking, and he could see the bar's sign from here.

On the street across the street from the bar, he found a newsstand, hoping that there were maps to sell there.

The owners of the newsstand are a couple over half a hundred years old, the husband is looking at the passers-by at the sales counter, and the wife is sorting out something inside.

"Do you have a map?"

"Yes, 50 cents."

The price seems to be a bit high, but anyway, it's the money in the game, so you don't feel sorry to spend it casually.

An Yi took out a banknote and handed it over, picking up a copy of today's newspaper.

To say that the system is getting more and more disgusting, generally speaking, if the things in the newspaper are not important clues, they will not be translated by the system, and this time the entire newspaper is translated, even the lace news of the big stars, and if there are any clues or the like, it can only be distinguished by the players themselves.

The newspaper's headline was about the two bodies found yesterday, and it was trumpeting police incompetence.

"It's horrible."

The man at the newsstand said:

"Outsiders, I advise you to leave as soon as possible if you don't have anything important."

"How do you know we're outlanders?"

The brave invincible asked curiously.

"Stupid, did you forget the map we just bought?"

The grass on the plain hates iron and steel, and if it is a local, what kind of map do you need?

"That's just one aspect, you're very good-looking, and I know you're definitely not locals."

The newsstand owner took out a pipe and said proudly while stuffing tobacco into it:

"I've been here for more than 20 years, and I know everybody."

"My detective, don't be pretentious, did you forget that you almost caused a fire last time you smoked?"

Said the hostess inside the newsstand.

"Ahem! It was just an accident! ”

An Yizhi didn't care about the show of affection between them, but noticed something else.

"You said you've been here for twenty years, so if you didn't see Fielding yesterday, he lived in front."

"Of course, Fielding is my old buddy, alas, I just heard that he died."

The newsstand owner said regretfully, and then said vigilantly:

"Why are you asking this?"

"Actually, we're police."

Lili Yuan Shangcao and the brave invincible cooperated very well and took out their police cards, and An Yizhi continued:

"There's something strange about Fielding's death, and we're investigating it."

"Huh~" spat out the smoke ring, and the newsstand owner said:

"Let me think about it...... Well...... Yesterday I saw Fielding come to the bar at noon, and by the way, you went to the bar at that time. ”

An Yizhi nodded, just as they got off the train and came to the bar to meet Fielding.

"And then? Did he pass through here again? ”

"Once, when we were closing, I saw his car parked outside the bar, and he hurried into the bar."

The three players looked at each other, perhaps the last time Fielding was seen alive.

"What time is that?"

"Hmm...... It's half past six in the afternoon, we closed a little late yesterday, it should be that time. ”

As to when Fielding came out of the bar, the newsstand owner did not know, for he had already returned home by then, and it had not been peaceful lately.

It seems that the owner of the bar needs to be asked about what happened after Fielding went to the bar.

Ann pondered these points when she saw James coming from the other side of the street.

"So you're here, but I'll find you."

"How?"

"I've been kicked out of the action group."

James looked angry.

It turned out that with Fielding's death, James, who had been following up on the disappearance case, was also kicked out by other police officers to take charge of the case, no wonder he looked unhappy.

"It just so happens that I have something I want you to investigate."

"But I'm ......"

"Don't you want to avenge Fielding?"

James was stunned for a moment, then finally nodded.

It's also a helpless thing to let the NPC investigate.,It's estimated that the system's arrangement is to divide the players and go to investigate separately.,But then it's too dangerous.,In line with the idea that the dead friends don't die and the poor don't die.,That part will be handed over to James.。

"I'd like you to look into the surrounding gas stations to see if anyone regularly buys gas from a gasoline barrel."

"Uh, why is that?"

"Since you can't find the murderer's Pontiac, you might as well start from the side. There is no Pontiac car registered in this city, and the murderer cannot drive directly to the gas station to refuel, which is too conspicuous and will greatly increase the possibility of exposure, but the car needs to be refueled to start, so the murderer must be a person who often buys oil with oil barrels. ”

"You're right, why didn't I think of that?"

James looked at Ann in a daze and said a lot, and suddenly realized.

There was a sentence that Ann didn't say.

In this era, there are really a lot of people who use gasoline barrels to buy oil, such as lawn mowers and everything, so James is afraid that there will be a lot of people, as for the boring work of checking one by one........

Players are definitely not interested in doing that anyway.

James seemed very excited, and it is estimated that he has begun to fantasize about the scenery of a rookie policeman who has just come out of the police academy to solve a shocking case.

"But there's one more thing you need help with before you get busy investigating the gas station."

"What's the matter?"

Ann took out the key that Fielding gave yesterday and shook it:

"We need to go to Fielding's office, and the sooner the better."
