The outer glass wall of the SHIELD Building has been repaired, but the interior has not yet been tidied.
First, time was tight and the An family was busy dividing the property and had no time to manage the office.
Secondly, this is the crime scene after all, and law enforcement agencies also recommend keeping it for a while.
Cao Xiong stayed in Mingjing City for three days and finally contacted the law enforcement department.
In the evening, Cao Xiong, Yan Qingge and a group of people entered An Shirong's office under the guidance of Xu Shan.
The office was barely touched, with huge bullet holes in the walls and floor, and all kinds of debris scattered all over the floor, including large bloodstains.
The broken limbs were taken away, but the blood stains left behind have not been cleaned up yet.
In fact, there are still people testing here these days, trying to find An Shirong's blood.
Fortunately, the lighting equipment in the room was not damaged, which provided great convenience.
Cao Xiong brought two technicians with testing equipment to re-test the office.
Yan Qingge, wearing sunglasses, walked around along the bullet holes, looking thoughtful.
Yao Fei didn't understand the technique, nor did she have the vision. She could only stare at Cao Xiong with wide eyes.
Cao Xiong, holding a flat carved silver wine pot, leaned against the wall and drank lazily.
He looked so casual, as if he was just here to join in the fun and everything had nothing to do with him.
This made Xu Shan, who had been paying attention to Cao Xiong, a little puzzled.
The reputation of the Soul Chaser Cao Xiong is so great that it cannot be fake. Although Cao Xiong's behavior does not look like that of a detective, it makes him seem even more unfathomable.
Xu Shan was very curious, but because of his identity, he didn't dare to ask too much.
No one spoke at the scene and the atmosphere seemed a bit depressing.
Fortunately, the two technicians were very efficient and completed the preliminary inspection in just twenty minutes.
"Boss, based on the traces at the scene, we can conclude that it was a 55.35 caliber naval gun, and the opponent's shooting accuracy was very high. Most of the bullets should have penetrated the glass wall, leaving only a few bullet holes at the scene..."
A technician gave a brief report. In fact, these were all clearly written in the report, and he just confirmed it again.
Cao Xiong nodded and said to Yan Qingge, "Qingge, what do you think?"
Yan Qingge said: "Killers should not be called assassins. Such meticulous, sophisticated and arrogant methods are very stylish."
"Hahaha, the description of style is great, very accurate and vivid."
Cao Xiong laughed loudly and said, "I have seen countless killers in my life, but this is the first time I have seen such a special guy. I am sure that this killer is not in any archive records. At least, not in the archive records of Pegasus."
Yan Qingge nodded, agreeing with it deeply.
She didn't need to come to the scene. She had come to this conclusion after reading the law enforcement department's files. This assassin was extraordinary, and he had a kind of arrogance and contempt for everything in his bones.
Moreover, the assassin was indeed capable.
Cao Xiong asked again: "Do you have any other opinions?"
Yan Qingge thought for a moment and said, "Using naval guns to kill people is indeed very imaginative. However, there is a prerequisite. He must be sure where An Shirong is. The timing must be coordinated."
She said puzzledly: "The question is, how did the assassin accurately determine An Shirong's location?"
The glass exterior of the office was specially made, and the security inside was tight. Few people knew where An Shirong was. How did the assassin accurately locate An Shirong? This was a big question.
Cao Xiong spread his hands and said, "You'll have to ask Vice Minister Xu about this."
Xu Shan said seriously, "We also suspected that there was a traitor, and we conducted a detailed investigation. During the time of the incident, all Skynet communications were checked. No one in the Shenwu Building reported the information to the outside world."
"Maybe the other party has special abilities or rare items..."
Cao Xiong was not disappointed either. He said casually, "It is said that the spiritual power of a gold-level swordsman is so great that he can even travel across galaxies. It is not surprising that the other party can sense An Shirong's location."
Yan Qingge remained silent. She also believed that the other party must have extraordinary abilities. If he didn't have this ability, he wouldn't dare to be so arrogant.
"so be it."
Cao Xiong said: "Let's go to the Golden Dragon Pavilion and take a look."
Xu Shan certainly had no objection, he was just a guide. The group took the flying ship directly to Tianan Street.
The law enforcement aircraft was not restricted by Tianan Street and flew directly to the courtyard of Jinlong Pavilion and landed.
The lobby manager had already received the notice and was waiting with his back hunched.
Cao Xiong didn't hesitate, and as soon as he got out of the flying ship, he said, "Let's go to the Golden Dragon Pavilion."
The lobby manager led the way. Because a big incident had just happened, Jinlong Pavilion was closed to the public and not open for business.
The Golden Dragon Pavilion also remained in its original state, with bloodstains on the imitation white jade floor and debris all over the main seat.
Cao Xiong looked around, and his eyes finally fell on the sword rack on the east wall: "Where is the Golden Dragon Sword?"
The lobby manager said hurriedly: "It was taken away."
"I didn't send it back to you."
Xu Shan was a little unhappy. Although the Golden Dragon Sword was a murder weapon, it was a sword from the Golden Dragon Pavilion. It was not special in itself and was expensive. They sent it back after checking it.
The lobby manager quickly explained: "It was taken away by General Manager Wei."
"Huh?" Xu Shan didn't know about this.
"Just the day before yesterday, President Wei sent someone to take away the Golden Dragon Sword."
"Haha, interesting."
Cao Xiong looked at Xu Shan meaningfully, unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip of wine, without saying anything more.
Xu Shan was a little embarrassed. He was notified until the evening that Cao Xiong and Yan Qingge had arrived in Mingjing City to track down the assassin. It was impossible for him to inform Wei Yue in advance.
The problem is that this matter cannot be explained clearly or even explained.
The group of people led by Cao Xiong looked at Xu Shan with scrutiny, making no effort to hide their suspicion.
However, Yan Qingge was wandering around the battlefield, seemingly unconcerned about the embarrassing situation here.
Cao Xiong did not continue the topic. Although Xu Shan was only a deputy minister, he was a local boss. They were equal to Xu Shan in terms of authority and were not qualified to order Xu Shan to do anything.
Moreover, the investigation team was not so procedural. If Xu Shan really wanted to be serious, he could just ignore them.
Cao Xiong walked up to Yan Qingge and asked, "What did you find?"
Yan Qingge shook his head: "Nothing."
She stretched out her hand and grabbed at the air. "There is still a little bit of residual sword energy and spiritual fluctuations. The two sides fighting are really strong."
There are several videos of the battle on site, all from different perspectives of the spectators. The videos can almost restore the battle of that day.
However, the video only shows the changes in light and shadow, but not the changes in source power, and most of the battle details are lost.
Being present at the scene in person, Yan Qingge could clearly feel the traces of battle remaining in the air.
Not to mention the unknown assassin, the traces of sword energy left by Baiyun City are like engraved on stone. After a few days, the sword energy still reveals a powerful and brutal aura.
This shows that Baiyun City is not just a name.
Yan Qingge made a simple comparison and found that in terms of sword energy alone, Baiyun City was better than her.
The assassin killed Baiyun City just like killing a chicken. When Yan Qingge thought of this, he suddenly felt a little more pressure.
Looking at the deep night outside the window, I felt a little colder.
Not to mention that the assassin would hide in the dark and attack her head-on with a sword, could she block it
The waters in Mingjing City were deeper and more dangerous than she thought!
Of course, she dared to come here because she had something to rely on, not because she was really stubborn and fearless.
Cao Xiong took another sip of wine and wiped the wine from the corner of his mouth casually: "Baiyun City is known as the third in Dongzhou. Although it is a bit of exaggeration, his swordsmanship is really powerful."
He sighed and said, "Killing the assassin from Baiyun City with one sword, just thinking about it makes me feel cold. Damn, the July heat is gone in an instant."
Yan Qingge was silent for a moment and then asked, "What did you find?"
Cao Xiong smiled and shook his head: "It's hard to say, hard to say."
Yan Qingge couldn't guess what Cao Xiong was thinking, nor did she know whether he was just going through the motions or was really here to arrest someone.
However, if he fails this time, Cao Xiong’s legend of solving cases and arresting people 100% will be broken.
Yan Qingge did not ask any more questions. Although Cao Xiong was drunk all day, he was cunning and shrewd. She had never been on the same side as Cao Xiong.
"Since the Golden Dragon Sword is gone, let's go back."
Cao Xiong said casually, "Thank you for troubling Vice Minister Xu so late at night. I'll treat you to a midnight snack."
Xu Shan and Cao Xiong had nothing to talk about, so he declined, "No, I have other things to do. Team Leader Cao, Ms. Yan, you should also go to bed early. I'll be leaving first. The flying ship is left to you."
After Xu Shan left, Yao Fei sneered and said, "It's obvious that this guy is not a good person. He must have gone to tip off the police again."
Cao Xiong glanced at Yao Fei and said, "Little kid, don't talk nonsense. That's all for today. Let's go have a midnight snack."
He said with some anticipation: "I heard that the grilled fish in Mingjing is unique. Let's go and try it."
Everyone was very happy. It was always easy to work with Cao Xiong. They could just eat and drink and get things done.
The group of people found a famous grilled fish restaurant and ate until late at night before taking the law enforcement flying ship back to the hotel.
As soon as Yan Qingge returned to the hotel room, he contacted Yan Qingfeng.
The spotlights on the screen were shining. Yan Qingfeng was holding a large wine glass and drinking with a group of girls. When he saw Yan Qingge, he raised his glass and said, "Youngest, have a drink."
His facial features were very similar to Yan Qingge's, except that he was tougher. He was well-dressed and behaved in a carefree manner, and at first glance he looked like a playboy.
Yan Qingge looked at his brother coldly and said nothing.
Yan Qingfeng felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, he waved his hand helplessly, the music stopped, the lights stopped flashing, and the girls in cool clothes quickly left. The room immediately became quiet.
"You're just a killjoy. If you have something to say, just tell me." Yan Qingfeng lazily lay on the sofa, signaling Yan Qingge that he could report.
"I went to the scene and didn't find any trace of the evil god. The assassin should have nothing to do with the evil god organization."
Yan Qingge paused and added, "That assassin is very powerful."
"What did Cao Xiong say?" Yan Qingfeng asked curiously.
"He didn't say anything. He was sneaky and I don't know what he was up to."
Yan Qingge said: "Cao Xiong is definitely colluding with the Black Dragon Society. There is no doubt about that."
"Alas, everyone has known about this for a long time. The problem is that Cao Xiong has his own abilities."
Yan Qingfeng thought for a moment and said, "As long as Wei Yue has nothing to do with the Evil God Organization, we can cooperate. Find a chance to talk to Wei Yue about cooperation. If she is willing, we can help her solve these problems."
Yan Qingge frowned and said, "Can you deal with the Black Dragon Society and Cao Xiong?"
"If Wei Yue is willing to pay a certain price, these won't be a problem."
Yan Qingfeng said confidently: "Our Yan family still has this face."
Cao Xiong next door was also on a video call with someone: "Well, I found a clue..."
The law enforcement chief on the screen was overjoyed: "Where is the person? I'll take people to arrest him immediately!"
(There is also a third update, which will be available at 12 o'clock. It will be updated three times in a row. There will be more updates during the day depending on the situation.)
