Midtown, Central Park.
As the favorite park of the residents of Messer City, its area is indeed a bit exaggerated. It is really located in the center of Messer City. Except for the Larch District, which is a little far away, the rest of the park can be directly entered into the park without any need. transit.
In the park, there are also paths to several large areas.
Tang Qi and Stana entered the park from the central city area, which happens to be the eastern area of the park. The environment here is better than other areas. After all, it is an area exclusively for the rich. It is quiet and peaceful, and it is indeed the most ideal place for night running.
However, with the continuous occurrence of murders during this period, the number of night runners is rapidly decreasing. Either I changed to going to the gym, or I quit this habit altogether. I believe the latter is more, after all, exercising is still very tiring.
The two soon arrived at the scene, a swamp, walked through the fresh air of the tree-lined road, and suddenly came to the swamp area exuding a pungent smell, Tang Qi and Stana were a little uncomfortable.
Under the guidance of a police detective, Tang Qi quickly saw where the body was found.
Just at the edge of the swamp, there was a big pothole, the black sludge was opened, and the sewage had been poured in. Some pus could be seen on the water surface and on the weeds. It didn't look like the bio-grease was melted. It looks like some kind of biological fluid.
There was no trace of dragging or fighting at the scene. The victim did not know the pain of death, but he should have no resistance.
After observing silently for a while, Tang Qi didn't find any clues, and was about to shake his head at the expectant Stana.
But at this moment, Tang Qi seemed to catch something out of the corner of his eye.
After walking a few steps, I squatted silently by the pothole, and finally saw clearly.
There, there were a few mosquitoes, which seemed to have been flattened and fell into the mud, some were fragmented, and one or two were complete. They were different from ordinary mosquitoes in that their bodies were larger, and their abdomens were still bulging, as if they were red. It is as red as crystal, but it is covered by mud, which is easily overlooked by ordinary people.
Tang Qi could see it because when his eyes swept over, dots of dim light flickered suddenly.
A special picture slowly emerged in Tang Qi's surprised expression.
[Extraordinary creature: Ogre Mosquito.]
[Status: dead larva.]
[Information Fragment 1: A dead ogre mosquito larva, which was only a tenth of a second behind its brothers and sisters, did not have time to suck enough blood to grow a hard body, and was slapped by a human's fragile palm Flattened.]
[Information Fragment 2: A moist environment and clear water are required to hatch the Ogre Mosquito.]
"Um?'
When the second piece of information flowed past, Tang Qi frowned slightly.
Called an on-site police detective and asked directly: "Central Park, which area has the clearest water?"
This is a curly-haired young police detective. He was taken aback when he heard the question, then thought for a while, and said, "It should be on the island in the middle of the lake. There are still some villas there, and it is a small residential area for rich people."
…
Tang Qi and Stana soon appeared on the island in the middle of the lake.
As the police detective said, this is indeed a residential area for the rich. The island in the center of the lake is not just one island, but actually many small islands. Each small island has a single-family villa, and they can take boats between them. come and go.
Tang Qi took a glance, and finally his eyes fell on the villa in the center, which was actually farther away from other villas, and the water quality in the center of the lake seemed clearer.
The two found a small boat and rowed there. Although it was not early morning at this time, the place was still foggy. The clear lake water looked gray and black through the fog, making it hard to see what was underneath.
"Jinglingling~"
As soon as the crisp bell rang, there was a "click", the white door was opened, and a young man appeared in front of the two.
This is a man with a slender figure, wearing a decent suit, with a handsome face and a well-trimmed hairstyle. Except for the dark circles around his eyes, it can be seen that he is a gentleman with strong financial resources.
"Excuse me, who are you?"
The man did not let the two of them in, but opened the door halfway and asked.
"Hello, sir. I'm Stana, Sergeant of the Messer Police Department. This is Tang Qi, our consultant. I'm here to investigate several recent cases. I have a few questions for you. Maybe You will be willing to cooperate."
Stana took out her ID and shook it in front of the man. Although it was a discussion, her tone was unrefutable.
The man probably wanted to refuse, but after hesitating for a while, he replied, "Okay, please come in."
The three walked into the hall together. The man wanted to lead Tang Qi and Stana to the sofa area, but on the way, he had to pass a huge glass tank, which was bubbling and bubbling. And in the water, there are yellow glass ball-like things attached, floating and sinking.
Because of those bubbles, the two couldn't see clearly.
As if knowing that the two of them would be curious, the man took the initiative to explain: "Those are all amber. I am actually an amber merchant. This water cultivation method is my exclusive secret recipe. It can make amber more crystal clear and plump, and can be sold at a higher price." price."
"If the two police detectives are interested, I can give you a few private gifts when you leave."
When the man talked about his "occupation", he seemed to relax, and he looked very personable, which made people feel good.
But it's a pity that Stana still has a cold face, obviously not very interested in Amber, when she walked in, she had already taken out a pen and paper, and it seemed that she planned to question this young man on the spot, A man who can earn a villa with amber.
Tang Qi, on the other hand, smiled lightly, pretending to be very surprised, and said: "Is it really amber? There are so many, I am also very interested in amber. This special biological fossil is really amazing. You can actually collect it." There are so many, can I take a closer look?"
After finishing speaking, Tang Qi never seemed to think that the other party would object, and walked directly to the glass jar.
After taking a few quick steps, he was already less than one meter away from the glass jar.
Although those bubbles are still churning, it is enough for Tang Qi to see the scene inside clearly. The deep yellow "amber" is crystal clear attached to the wall of the tank, with an attractive luster on the surface, while the inside is Wrapped around a curled up mosquito.
Every one is like this.
It was densely packed, and all that came into Tang Qi's eyes were familiar mosquitoes.
A large amount of dim light gathered, and finally, a special interface popped out under Tang Qi's eyes.
"Extraordinary creature: Ogre Mosquito."
"Status: hatching... larvae."
When this scene appeared, Tang Qi turned around subconsciously, and was about to shout something, but saw a face, a handsome face with a twisted and weird smile.
