The moment he saw the body, the landlord collapsed instantly.
No matter how mentally prepared he was, no matter how indifferent he was to life and death, after all, his whole family was gone and he couldn't control his emotions.
However, the Imperial people did not believe in tears after all. He only cried for a few minutes before gritting his teeth and contacting City Garrison.
After the city guards arrived, they checked each deceased person and began to ask him what happened.
Although the landlord was not a professional, he could tell from the decomposition of the body that his family member had been dead for more than a day.
He has not heard of any Awakened One that can accelerate the decomposition of corpses, so his family must have died at the hands of the kidnappers.
It's impossible to say that he doesn't hate the tenants and his group. If those people don't show up, how can something happen to his family? However, the deceased is dead, and his first priority now is to avenge his family.
Secondly, the tenant may be more arrogant than the kidnapper, and he has been openly threatened.
Thinking of this, he felt a faint pain again in his newly connected arm.
Thinking about it from another angle, how did the other party know where the kidnapper buried his body? Obviously it couldn't have been hit on the spot.
The technical staff of City Garrison determined this - the time of death of the deceased was the night of the kidnapping.
The landlord had reason to believe that the tenants should have caught at least some of the kidnappers and interrogated them to find out where the bodies were buried.
Then there is another question. If one of the kidnappers slipped through the net, who is more trustworthy, the tenants or City Garrison?
Landlords believe that aggressive tenants are more reliable.
If City Garrison was really trustworthy, he would have called the police as soon as his family was kidnapped.
Moreover, the kidnapper's request was to sell the manor to the government after evicting the tenants. How could this not make him suspicious?
City Garrison Some people were inspecting the site, and some were questioning him, how did he find this place? The landlord replied without hesitation, "I dreamed about it... I thought I couldn't find anyone to try my luck."
This answer is a bit excessive, but it cannot be said to be deliberately causing trouble.
Even with the development of science and technology in the empire, there is still no scientific explanation for the soul.
The current mainstream thinking is that the soul exists objectively, after all, it has been observed.
But where does this thing come from, where is it going, especially whether there is an afterlife... There is no authoritative answer.
Even the theory "Body Seizure" has many supremes who express doubts, and almost none can truly master it skillfully.
This was also the reason why Paranoid approached Qu Jianlei cautiously.
If he could Body Seizure skillfully, he might really be able to make a move. The key is that he himself is not sure.
It wasn't until he heard Qu Jianlei also talk about Body Seizure and promised to help him find a body that he agreed.
When he did the specific operation, he still didn't have much confidence in his heart, but he had food in his mouth, and he wouldn't be willing not to give it a try.
Anyway, his way of existence is already like that, no matter how miserable it can be, how much worse can it be? It's better to risk death.
This is a bit far. The key is that in a society with such advanced technology, the theory of reincarnation is often mentioned.
So the dreams entrusted by family members cannot be considered to be false - although the probability of occurrence is almost legendary.
A more scientific explanation is that it is somewhat similar to the supreme release Mental Strength, which can not only perceive but also transmit some thoughts.
As for how ordinary people can do this, that really belongs to the realm of metaphysics.
Anyway, the reason given by the landlord made the city guards a little upset, "Speak carefully and don't say such nonsense!!"
"That's the fact," the landlord replied angrily, "My son's family of six is gone. Do I have the heart to joke?"
The city guards still didn't believe it, but they didn't pursue it further - if you don't tell us, we won't be able to find out? "You'd better think clearly, Patrol will also come to inspect, they are more professional!"
Patrol and City Garrison both belong to the public security system, but the former has a higher status and correspondingly greater power.
When the landlord heard this, he felt a little pinched in his heart - he had not made any attempt to hide his recent contacts with the tenants.
Let alone Patrol, it is not difficult for even the city guards to verify this information.
But then he thought again, if you want to check, go and check, but I want to see what the result will be if you confront them.
He has chosen to rely on tenants, so he has to continue on. In the empire, half-heartedness is not a good quality.
However, at this moment, a City Garrison ran over and said, "Patrol is in trouble over there. No one can come for the time being."
"What's going on?" The other City Garrison became interested after hearing this, and asked all kinds of questions.
Unfortunately, the city guard who brought the news did not know what happened. He only heard that the situation was serious.
In fact, even Patrol were at a loss at this time: How could the second-in-command Harman disappear?
Because Harman had his own lounge, Patrol didn't realize at first that he disappeared during the night.
It wasn't until someone came to the headquarters to look for someone in the morning that Patrol were stunned, "He works the night shift. Didn't he go back?"
Harman is the second-in-command of Patrol and has considerable autonomy. Who would be free to check his position? But the person who came here got the news from Harman's house and knew that he had never returned home, so he came to the work to look for someone.
Everyone went to the second-in-command's office but found no one. The key was that none of his three attendants were there.
At this time, Patrols felt a little strange. Someone called Wristwatch of Harman, and someone checked in and out of the surveillance system.
Then everyone discovered that the second-in-command only had a record of entering the headquarters, but no record of leaving! Not just him, but three of his entourage have only records of their entry, and no images of their departure.
This strange phenomenon proved that 90% of the time there was something wrong, and Patrol Headquarters became busy in an instant.
It is not clear whether other Patrol knows about what Harman has done recently.
But there is no doubt that even if someone knew the secret of the second-in-command, it would be impossible to tell it.
As time goes by, the atmosphere at Patrol Headquarters becomes more and more solemn - none of the four people can be contacted, something serious has happened!
At this time, the Patrol who were on missions outside were all recalled one after another. Why would they care about new missions? However, the City Garrison team at the scene did not realize that what Patrol Headquarters encountered was one with the incident in front of them!
Anyway, Patrol is no longer needed. City Guard also has its own technical staff, but they are just less professional.
No matter how unprofessional it is, there is no problem in checking the communication records, and it is not difficult to check the landlord's whereabouts.
In less than an hour, the city guards had locked in a highly suspicious group of people—Qu Jianlei and the others.
The landlord has been in frequent contact with this group of people recently, and even visits them from time to time.
Even this morning, he went to the manor first - even if he is the owner of the manor, there is no need to be so diligent, right?
So there must be something wrong with the tenants in the manor.
Since the landlord won't tell us, let's go find those people. I don't believe that as outsiders, they dare not tell us.
Wait! Ahem... is it Hongjingtian's team? Then you must maintain the necessary respect for the Supreme! In fact, after City Garrison knew that the tenant was Hongjingtian Team, he didn't even want to deal with this murder case.
You really can't interfere with the highest matters. Although City Garrison is a public security force, it is still a "civilian affairs" attribute.
In this case, if they offended the Supreme Being, they would probably die without knowing how.
Anyway, the water here is too deep, so everyone should just stay out of it.
In fact, someone has already thought of it. It is said that there is currently a Baron Supreme, and it seems that he is planning to deal with Hongjingtian Supreme? A supreme being is enough to make people tremble and fear.
As for being involved in this kind of super Vortex with eyes like Storm——how hard must it be to commit suicide like this? Then, a strange thing happened.
The death of the landlord's son and his family is said to be a big tragedy, and the identity and origin of the tenants indicate that they are probably related to the tragedy - not just anyone can make such a big enemy.
But by chance, the City Garrisons who were investigating the case completely ignored this clue and acted as if they didn't know anything.
City Garrison is a law enforcement agency used to maintain law and order. Although it can be considered a violent machine, most people only think of it as a job.
At the same time, the landlord was also observing Cheng Wei very carefully - after all, he didn't tell the truth, was he guilty?
After observing Cheng Wei's reaction, he was relieved: Sure enough, you are afraid too.
Qu Jianlei and Old Lady Jia returned to the manor and did not take the initiative to go out again - the general direction has been set, which is Using Stillness to Control Movement.
There are potential enemies observing in secret, which makes Qu Jianlei a little distracted - it's not that he doesn't feel safe, it's that there are real enemies!
Otherwise, who is Harman? It actually reflects the style of Death Warrior? However, things in this world are really strange sometimes. He is always wary of the outside world, but his cultivation level improves very quickly.
This really feels like "born in sorrow and dying in happiness". Is this the correct way to attract black physique?
Starting from the second day after he and Old Lady returned to the manor, dark clouds slowly gathered in the surrounding area of tens of thousands of square kilometers.
Clouds accumulate very slowly, so slowly that ordinary people can hardly feel them.
The local Meteorological Department people noticed this situation and were a little surprised, "Will there be a rainy period at this time?"
Tianrui Star It is true that there are long rainy periods occasionally, but not during this period.
"Isn't this unusual? But with such a large area, it's not considered a rainy season. It might dissipate in a few days."
"There is no obvious large warm and humid air flow in the troposphere, which does not support the rainy period hypothesis, but the increase effect is obvious in the short term."
Two days later, the clouds became somewhat thicker, and the area reached more than 100,000 square kilometers.
In the manor, Hua Xiezhi looked at the sky, "Such a large area of clouds, is that enough?"
Old Lady Jia sat under a big tree and said calmly, "I can still persist."
