Star Gate

She is not stupid, and generally guessed something.

At this moment, Chen Na is thinking, if Li Hao is really the Li in "The Sword of the Li Family" in the slang song, will he also be in danger?

The inspection department is not afraid of danger, but the danger that does not know where it comes from.

The cases of those people were all caused by accidents.

Li Hao nodded slightly and didn't say much.

And Li Hao himself has a lot of things to be busy at the moment, and he needs to verify.

He wants to investigate the case from 10 years ago. Is the Zheng family dead?

If the situation permits, he will go to Zhang Yuan's house. After Zhang Yuan's death, his house will be vacant. Li Hao wants to go and see if the Zhang family's knife is still there.

Not only the Zhang family's sword, but also the Hong family's hammer, the Zhou family's gun, these weapons in the song, do they exist, or do they exist?

Is it the people of the Ba family that Hong Ying is after, or the weapon of the Ba family?

Needless to say, fists and feet, when a person dies, nothing is left.

But weapons, if each family really has an inheritance, like the Li family, when it is passed down as a family heirloom, there may be some clues to be found.

Only by determining Hongying's purpose and understanding the other party better can we better deal with the crisis.

……

Li Hao didn't go directly to Zhang's house, nor did he go home. He still had things to do.

Inspection Department.

Archives.

Aunt Zhao, who was in charge of the archives, took out a stack of documents from the dusty warehouse, patted the dust, and raised a cloud of gray mist.

Handing the yellowed information to Li Hao, he said strangely: "Xiao Hao, what do you want these for? From 1715 to 1719, the name list of Zheng who died in Yincheng and canceled his account is here. There are hundreds of people in total. But people have been dead for many years..."

Li Hao's face was full of innocent smiles, "Sister Zhao, there are some suspicious cases in the confidential room that involve these, I can't tell you the specifics, you were troubled, and you found the clue later, I invite you to dinner."

"Forget about eating, Xiaohao, you are already 20 years old, and you are not too young. My daughter is 22 years old this year, and she is two years older than you..."

"..."

Li Hao was a little helpless, but still kept smiling: "Sister Zhao, let's talk later, I'm still young."

As he said that, he quickly left with the file in a slightly embarrassed manner.

The aunts of the inspection department are very enthusiastic, but they are not very good at this point. They like to introduce their daughters to him.

It's not a daughter, it's a niece, or it's a girl from so-and-so.

Who told him that Li Hao had been admitted to Yincheng Ancient Academy, even though he dropped out, it still didn't hinder his popularity.

After getting the list, Li Hao quickly looked through it.

There are not many lists of hundreds of people, and the cause of death is generally introduced. This is the list of canceled accounts. Next, Li Hao has to exclude some of them, and combine some other information to find out whether there is the Zheng family member he is looking for.

The best result, of course, is to have a direct introduction, and die by self-immolation, that is the best and most convenient.

Li Hao finally discovered that Hongying kills people, or if there are any forces behind Hongying, they kill people, the direct descendants of the eight families or the only seedlings, and they all use self-immolation to kill people.

If not, Li Hao would not have been able to lock the first few people.

Among them, there may be some secrets hidden, which Li Hao can't find out yet.

"There was a self-immolation case in 1720, followed by a self-immolation case in 1723, so the previous time should be equal or longer and longer. The most likely death is before 1717."

Li Hao watched as he walked, he had to make sure whether the Zheng family member was dead or not.

If it is dead, it means that the previous guesses are all correct.

If he is not dead...then if the Zheng family is alive, it is not without gain. If the other party is alive, it may provide Li Hao with more clues. He even thinks that the Zheng family is better alive, so it is very likely that it is directly related to Hongying. .

"In the slang song, it's about the young master of the Zheng family dragging his feet, which is different from the other families... Maybe the Zheng family is also a little different."

Just as he was thinking, Li Hao turned to a page.

"Zheng Yunqi, died on September 1715, 9, cause of death: gas explosion..."

Li Hao's eyes sharpened instantly, gas explosion?

In this case, when you die, you may die without a whole body, which is very similar to the way of self-immolation.

And this way of death is not too noticeable.

"is it him?"

Li Hao murmured, the gas exploded, and more than one person may die. In this case, the Zheng family can even take care of it!

Looking through the hundreds of lists, this one is most likely to be the Zheng family in the song.

"Maybe... you can go and have a look."

Li Hao thought, there is the other party's address on it. Of course, it's hard to say whether that place is still there after 15 years.

A slang song by Chen Na today gave Li Hao a lot of clues in an instant.

In my mind, I gradually figured out the key to the self-immolation case.

If this Zheng Yunqi is the Zheng family that Li Hao is looking for, then among the eight surnames, he may be the only one who is still alive.

"Revenge? Or something else?"

"Is the red shadow man-made, or is it a special ability, or is it just a cover-up?"

Li Hao touched the jade sword on his chest again. Is this ancestral jade sword just a simple family heirloom, or does it have some other function?

"The members of the seven families are all dead, so the next one must be me. How did the other party find me and the others? There is nothing special about us. Why can Hongying lock us?"

The crisis of death seems to be approaching gradually.

At this moment, Li Hao already felt that the storm was coming. He quickly checked the communicator in his hand. He wanted to find out which day was cloudy and rainy recently. According to the rules of time, the next rainy day may be when the red shadow appears. .

"July 7, overcast!"

Li Hao's face changed slightly. Today is the 12th, and the next few days will be fine weather. It will turn cloudy on the 18th, and there will be a period of cloudy and rainy days after that.

"That is to say, if it is the fastest, the red shadow may appear again in six days? Even if it is not six days, the other party may appear in the next rainy day."

At this moment, Li Hao's heart seemed to be clenched tightly!

Before, he wasn't sure if the other party was looking for him, and if he was the next target, but at this moment, he was very sure that Hong Ying's next target was himself.

"Xiaoyuan let me escape in the end, does it mean that he also guessed it, or learned from Hongying that I will be the next one to kill?"

"Then why didn't Hongying kill me directly last time, why did it take a year to kill me?"

"Maybe there is a limit for Hong Ying to kill people, or maybe the method of self-immolation can only be used once, but to kill me, you must use the method of self-immolation?"

Rubbing his temples, Li Hao suddenly smiled.

"Relax!"

The fear of the unknown is actually better than the imminent crisis.

Before, he knew too little about Hongying, the purpose, origin, goal... Li Hao knew nothing about these things, so he was actually very scared this year.

However, when he figured out some clues and clearly knew that the other party's target was him, Li Hao was not so afraid.

There is only anger, resentment!

eye for eye!

This time, if the other party really appears, even at the risk of being exposed, he will go to the night watchman, go to them, and tell them that he can see the red shadow!

If he could kill Hong Ying, even if he ended up dying himself, it would be worth it!

"Xiaoyuan...and parents, if you also died at the hands of Hongying, this time, I will definitely avenge you!"

Li Hao clenched his fists, and on his gentle face, there was an incongruous look of ferocity!

Chapter 5

Six pm.

It's time for the inspection department to get off work. Li Hao is not a front-line law enforcement officer, so naturally he gets off work on time.

On weekdays, Li Hao had already left.

But today, Li Hao was in no hurry to leave.

Office of the Chief.

Wang Jie glanced at Li Hao, and said in a deep voice, "You said you wanted to visit Zhang Yuan's house?"

"Yes."

"You and him are classmates. Now the case may be a murder case. It is not impossible for you to investigate, but... the personnel in the confidential room apply for a firearm to take home, which is a bit troublesome."

Yes, Li Hao came to apply for firearms.

Wang Jie must give his approval before he can bring the gun home.

Even though the red shadow was weird, the gun might not be useful, but the red shadow might not be able to come out now. In this case, Li Hao should be more careful about people instead.

If it is a person, then the firearm has a great lethality.

"Director, it's not for taking home, it's for handling cases!"

Li Hao corrected it.

Wang Jie smiled, taking it home and using it for handling cases are two different concepts. This kid is worthy of being a student of Yincheng Ancient Academy, and his nature has been changed in one sentence.

"Our confidential room is not the law enforcement team."

Wang Jie shook his head, Li Hao was a little disappointed.

He hasn't thought of a good way to deal with Hongying yet, because he doesn't know much, but if he holds a gun in his hand, it will increase his sense of security.

"The case of Zhang Yuan has only been communicated with the law enforcement team, and the case has not been officially registered. You can't apply for a gun according to this."

As he spoke, Wang Jie thought about it, and quickly said: "Well, there will be a foreign inspection at the Yincheng Ancient Courtyard soon, and the inspection department will send some people to carry out protection work. You fill out the form and apply Participate, so that you have a task on your body, as a protection officer, you are qualified to carry a gun."

Li Hao was stunned for a moment, and soon felt helpless.

Going round and round, is the task of co-authoring still hanging on your head?

In the morning, Chen Na mentioned this matter, but Li Hao refused.

On the Yincheng ancient courtyard, I heard that my mentor is leading the team this time. So, if I take this task, I will see my teacher again soon?

Seeing his silence, Wang Jie sighed and said, "What's the matter? Afraid of being beaten up by Mr. Yuan? I heard that when you dropped out of school, you had a bad fight with Mr. Yuan. Xiao Hao, since you have entered the inspection department, I It seems that you should find an opportunity to improve the relationship, after all, it is your teacher."

"If Mr. Yuan helps you, your future in the inspection department will be brighter, but if everyone knows that Mr. Yuan doesn't want to see you, even though Mr. Yuan can't control the inspection department, other people have to consider whether it is necessary For your third-level inspection, I will have trouble with Mr. Yuan."

Wang Jie also took great pains. He didn't know the specifics, but he heard that Li Hao had dropped out of school and had an unpleasant quarrel with his tutor.

The other party has no way to participate in the promotion and promotion of the inspection department, but the Yincheng inspection department has to sell some face.

"You want to be equipped with a gun. This is the best way. It can also ease the relationship with your teacher. It kills two birds with one stone..."

He was about to persuade him a few more words, because he was very optimistic about Li Hao.

Before a few words of persuasion, Li Hao nodded and said, "Okay!"

When I reached my mouth, it suddenly got stuck in my throat!

Wang Jie glanced at Li Hao strangely. Didn't he say that although this kid is kind, he has a bit of a personality?

How did you promise so happily today?

Li Hao showed an honest and helpless smile on his face: "Director, what is said outside may not be true. My relationship with the teacher is not that exaggerated. When I dropped out of school, the teacher was not very satisfied, but it has been a year I've been relieved a long time ago, and I was urged to do a good job in the inspection department a few days ago."

"That's good, that's good!"

Wang Jie nodded, expressing his satisfaction. Although he didn't know whether it was true or not, Li Hao was still honest, so it shouldn't be too false.

"Then you fill out the form. In a few days, you will have to go to the field to accompany the law enforcement team to protect the inspection team of Yincheng Ancient Courtyard."

Li Hao took the form and glanced at it. The travel date of the expedition team from the ancient courtyard was set at the end of the month.

However, the specific destination was not written, and only the entourage was left on standby.

This is also to prevent news from leaking out. The ancient courtyard has a lofty status and naturally has its value. The inspection team of the ancient courtyard is still led by its own teacher. The task this time may not be too simple.

I don't know if it will conflict with Hongying's affairs.

When the teacher travels, there is a high probability that there will be night watchmen following him. If Hong Ying activates it at that time, it may be a good thing.
