Luo Chu was so depressed that he wanted to smash things.
Mouth full of bitterness, heart full of self-blame.
"Xiao Jiang, it's my fault, it's my fault. If I had sent a few more people, maybe..."
"The monsters are in the dark, and we are in the light. If you send more people, they will send more people. Do you know how many replicators there are?"
Luo Chu was startled and couldn't answer the question for a moment.
"I don't understand why they didn't send someone to get that phone earlier? They had to wait for us to send someone before they snatched it? Is this considered a provocation or a blatant declaration of war?"
Luo Chu couldn't understand.
"Two possibilities." Jiang Yue thought for a while and said.
"The first is that they determined that the replicator failed not long ago, and they did not have time to send replicators over. It is also possible that they did not have the convenience to mobilize manpower. This shows that their manpower is actually limited."
"The second possibility is that the people they sent did not find the mobile phone. Where the mobile phone was hidden was decided by the replicator. The monsters do not have high-tech positioning methods and cannot find the mobile phone. Therefore, they have been lurking in the community.
, wait for your people to find their mobile phones, and then a mantis stalks the cicada, followed by the oriole..."
Both possibilities look similar.
Of course, any possibility cannot change the outcome.
The cell phone was stolen, so this evidence is hopeless for the time being.
I hope Lao Han can find some clues to identify the other two replicators.
By comparing the identities of the replicators and possessions, we may be able to find a clue.
It is undeniable that having the mobile phone taken back has greatly harmed the investigation of this case.
The replicators have been alerted, and their subsequent actions will inevitably be more covert, more cunning, and more difficult to investigate.
If you want to catch their flaws in the future, I'm afraid it will become more and more difficult.
Nearly an hour later, Old Han finally returned with a pile of information and a laptop in his bag.
"I'm sure, this third corpse is the person Sangou mentioned."
"Where are the other two?" Luo Chu asked.
"There are two more, we are not sure at the moment. However, we have extracted some information from the hospital and Crescent Harbor Community, and we need to compare them again."
"At the hospital, there are no missing hospital employees. There is a patient who disappeared last night. When our people went to check, the patient appeared again. When I asked him where he had gone, he said he had something to do and went home last night.
Already."
"In addition, we have also compiled a list of those who have been discharged in the past two days."
"There are over 2,000 to 3,000 households in Crescent Harbor, with a population of tens of thousands. It is extremely difficult to investigate. We have gone to the community to post advertisements to look for any permanent residents who have left home or disappeared in the past two days. Of course, this possibility
Go a little slower."
"I want to see the information about the patient who disappeared last night." Jiang Yue spoke first.
"This patient has returned to the hospital." Lao Han reminded.
"So what if I return? Are you sure that it is me who is returning? Isn't it another replicator? Are you sure that there is no second replicator in the Second Academy of Star City?"
"You sent people back to Star City Second Hospital yesterday, but didn't you find the cell phone of the replicator pretending to be a doctor? Maybe there is more than one replicator lurking in Star City Second Hospital!"
After a conversation, Han Yiming and Luo Chu looked at each other in confusion.
He hurriedly dug out the information of this missing and reappeared patient and gave it to Jiang Yue.
When Jiang Yue first saw it, his expression froze.
He has actually seen this person before!
He didn't know him, but he had definitely seen it, and he had seen it somewhere recently. Jiang Yue had a clear impression of this silhouette and expression in his mind.
"Second brother, what's wrong?"
Seeing that the second brother's expression was wrong, Sangou followed him and came closer.
"Ah? Is it him? I've known this person before!"
What?
Do you know each other again? Aren’t you Sangou from the town?
These are all Star City locals. We serious Star City people haven't even said we know each other. How come you know them all?
"Second brother, I really know this guy. He hired a construction site in our town. Just a few days ago, his private car was hit on the road. The crash was quite serious. He repaired it at the repair shop next to my sister-in-law.
Car. The son of the owner of the auto repair shop is my classmate. I often go to their shop to play. I definitely know this guy! If you don’t believe me, ask my sister-in-law. People in the town call him Mr. Zhou.”
The replicator in the glass cover screamed, becoming even more crazy, and banging against the glass cover desperately. A pair of eyes full of lifeless energy, full of ferocity.
It seemed that the true identity was about to be revealed, and the replicator was obviously anxious and going crazy.
Sangou's words reminded Jiang Yue.
"Yes, let me just say that I have seen this person somewhere. Last time I went back to Panshiling, I took the shuttle bus back. This person was in the same car with me, right behind me! It was him!" Sangou's words gave Jiang a
Yue's inspiration helped Jiang Yue find the information he needed in his memory.
The shuttle bus to Xingcheng starts from Xingcheng and ends at Yunxi Town. Panshiling is just a transfer.
Most passengers get off at the terminal in the town.
etc……
Shuttle bus?
An idea flashed in Jiang Yue's head, and he suddenly caught something.
"I'm going back to Panshiling on the first day of Qingming Festival..."
"Sangou, the one who opened the paint store before, he said that he would go back to Star City for the festival the next day, right?"
"yes!"
"Did he take a private car or take a shuttle bus?"
"I usually see him riding an electric donkey. To go to Star City so far away, he probably takes a shuttle bus, right?"
"Mr. Zhou, you said his car broke down and he wanted to go back to Star City..."
"Can we also take the shuttle bus?"
"That bus on Qingming Festival!"
Jiang Yue's whole body jumped up, and he felt a chill all over his body. An indescribable fear spread throughout his body!
That shuttle bus!
Han Yiming couldn't help but said: "The rescue on that bus was quite timely, and there seemed to be no casualties."
Jiang Yue's face was clouded, and he said sadly: "Are there no casualties? In such a landslide, such a huge boulder appeared for no reason? It just blocked the shuttle bus? In a mudslide of that level, not a single person died? Is it normal? Sangou,
Tell them, what did you see in town that night?"
After hearing this, Sangou's expression changed in shock.
The memory that once caused him to doubt himself slowly came back to life in his mind!
"That night, the wind was very strong, the dogs barked fiercely, and there was crying everywhere in the town..."
Despite Sangou's young age, his expressive ability is really strong. After speaking, the whole audience fell silent, and even the air seemed to be frightened and solidified.
Everyone can't help but conjure up a gloomy picture in their mind.
The dark wind howls, and hundreds of ghosts walk at night...
Han Yiming's outlook on life had been subverted to such an extent that he had a look of despair on his face: "Are you telling me that all the people on the shuttle bus died that day?"
"Are those who have come back alive actually possessed by replicators?"
"Sangou, when we were waiting for the shuttle bus that day, what did you see on the roof of the bus?"
Sangou vividly described the monsters coiled on the car again.
After Luo Chu and Han Yiming listened, they were so depressed that they could almost breathe.
After a long time, Luo Chucai murmured: "It's so deeply involved? Could it be that what Sangou saw is the replicator's body?"
"Maybe..." Jiang Yue sighed, he couldn't be sure of this at the moment.
But he is basically certain that the bond between these replicators is the bus!
The moment the bus departed from the town, the game officially started.
If Sangou hadn't been gifted with yin and yang eyes, he could see that those ghosts were entrenched at the Panshiling bus stop, and the two brothers would most likely have been involved in this situation and become part of this situation.
It’s scary to think about it.
"Old Han, I know you still don't believe it. You must have a ready-made list of shuttle buses. After all, this is a big deal, so I must have compiled the list. How many people went home after minor injuries were treated, and how many were hospitalized for serious injuries?
How many of them were injured, and how many of them went home without any injuries? Was the hospital they were connected to at that time Star City No. 2 Hospital?"
"The most important point is, why is this series of murders only found in Star City and the town, but not in other places? The only link between Star City and the town is that shuttle bus!"
"And this guy pretending to be a doctor is clearly one of the shuttle passengers who is still hospitalized in the Second Hospital!"
The time, location, and sequence of events all matched up perfectly!
Luo Chu put down the information in his hand and shouted: "Gather all the people and coordinate with other military departments. We need a large number of people. The more the better."
There were 44 people on that bus, including the driver.
If this speculation is true, it means that there are at least 44 replicators.
Except for some lurking in the town, most of them should still be in Star City!
Without alerting the enemy, it is absolutely impossible to control all the remaining 41 replicators without enough manpower.
The most important thing is that there is no room for failure in this matter.
Once it fails and a few fish slip through the net, there may be endless troubles.
This operation must be carried out in one fell swoop!
