The three people in the room immediately stopped talking and exchanged glances with each other. Then Zhao Yun shouted outside: "Who is it?"
"express delivery!"
The expressions of the three people relaxed.
Zhao Yun walked out quickly and saw a courier standing outside the door, holding a package in his hand.
The courier looked at Zhao Yun and asked, "Who are you?"
"I live here, who do you think I am?" Zhao Yun said, "Give me the package."
The courier did not hand the package to Zhao Yun, but instead said with some caution: "You don't live here."
Zhao Yun felt a little strange and asked: "How do you know I don't live here?"
The courier said: "I come here every week to deliver express, but I have never seen you, and it was Brother Chen who came out to pick up the express before."
"Which Brother Chen?" Zhao Yun asked again.
"Dong Chen!" After the courier finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Yun with surprised eyes and asked, "You don't know Dong Chen? Who are you?"
"Hahaha, how could I not know Dong Chen? He is my cousin." Zhao Yun said with a smile: "I used to work in my hometown, and I just came here today."
"No wonder I said I haven't seen you before." The courier lowered his guard and asked, "Where is Brother Chen?"
"Going out to do errands."
"Then help Brother Chen sign for it."
The courier handed the package to Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun took the package and quickly signed it, but found that the courier stood still and had no intention of leaving.
"Why don't you leave?" Zhao Yun asked doubtfully.
The courier said: "Brother Chen used to give me a tip of 100 yuan after signing for the express delivery."
"Really?" Zhao Yun was moved in his heart and asked, "Then tell me, what does my cousin look like?"
"No, you don't even know what your cousin looks like? Are you Brother Chen's cousin?"
"Nonsense! I'm not his cousin, you are! I just want to confirm whether you know my cousin or not. After all, there are too many scammers these days, and I don't want to be deceived."
Seeing Zhao Yun looking a little angry, the courier smiled and said, "So that's it. OK, I'll describe Brother Chen's appearance to you."
"Brother Chen has a round face, short hair, and a black mole as big as a little finger on his chin, right?"
"anything else?"
"Also, Brother Chen's face is paler than that of normal people. I asked Brother Chen before, and he said that he had an illness when he was a child, and after he recovered from the illness, his face looked like that, right?"
"Then do you know how tall my cousin is?"
The courier looked at Zhao Yun again and said, "You are a head taller than Brother Chen."
"It seems you didn't lie to me. You really know my cousin." Zhao Yun took out a red banknote and handed it to the courier.
"Thank you." The courier smiled and rode away.
Zhao Yun returned to the house and asked, "Did you hear what the courier just said?"
Ye Qiu and Dragon King nodded.
"It seems that this Dong Chen should be a member of the Wushen Cult." Zhao Yun said.
"Whether he is a member of the Wushen Cult or not, now that we have grasped his appearance, we will immediately issue a wanted order and ask the brothers to help find him." The Dragon King ordered Zhao Yun: "Tell the brothers if anyone finds Dong Chen
, a reward of one million."
"Yes." Zhao Yun took out his mobile phone and quickly dialed the number.
At this time, Ye Qiu's eyes fell on the package.
All he saw was a boxy shape and a tight package. He weighed it in his hands and found that the package was not heavy, so he tore off the tape.
"Be careful." Dragon King reminded.
"Yes." Ye Qiu's movements were very gentle and slow. It took him thirty seconds to tear off the tape on the package.
Opening the box, I found two wads of cash inside.
Ye Qiu took it in his hand and looked at it carefully. The cash was all real, totaling 20,000 yuan.
"It's strange that people still mail cash these days?" Ye Qiu muttered softly.
The Dragon King smiled and said: "This is actually not surprising. Nowadays, express is very developed and you can send all kinds of things by mail."
Ye Qiu then added: "This sender mailed cash to Dong Chen. It seems that they have a good relationship."
The Dragon King nodded slightly, agreeing with Ye Qiu's statement, and said: "The courier said before that he would come here every week to deliver express. Let's boldly reason that if the courier delivers cash every time, that is to say,
Dong Chen will receive at least 80,000 yuan in cash a month, so the question arises, who will give him so much cash? What is the use of this cash?"
"Is it activity funds?" Ye Qiu asked.
"I think your guess is correct." The Dragon King said: "This is the Jiangzhou branch of the Wushen Sect. In addition to Dong Chen, there must be other people who have to spend money every month. This money should be from the Wushen Sect.
Fund their activities.”
"I have another question. If this money is really the activity funds provided by the Wushen Sect to the Jiangzhou branch, then why didn't they transfer it to Dong Chen through bank transfer or Alipay, but instead used this method of mailing cash?"
"I think the Wushen Cult may think that mailing is safer. After all, online payments and bank transfers are easy to check."
Ye Qiu took another look at the package. The mailing address on it was blurry, and he could only vaguely see the word "Jiangzhou" written at the beginning. In other words, the express delivery was sent from somewhere in Jiangzhou.
Moreover, the mailing date was eight o'clock this morning, which shows that the sender did not know that Dong Chen had left the branch hall.
Ye Qiu hurriedly asked: "Dragon King, can you find the sender's address?"
"You want to find the sender?"
"Yes." Ye Qiu said: "Based on our reasoning just now, we can conclude that this sender is most likely a member of the Witch God Cult. If we can find him, we may have unexpected gains."
"Your idea is very good. Let's take a two-step approach. One is looking for Dong Chen and the other is looking for the sender. No matter which one we find, we can follow the clues to find the murderer who assassinated the nine thousand year old." The Dragon King said to Zhao Yun who had just finished the phone call.
Said: "I leave these two things to you, are there any questions?"
"No problem. If this shipping address is real, it will be found soon." Zhao Yun started to call again and arranged for someone to find the sender's address.
Time passes minute by minute.
In the blink of an eye, they had been in this yard for almost an hour.
Zhao Yun's phone kept ringing, but no particularly valuable clues were found.
Ye Qiu decided not to wait any longer and used the tracking charm again to track down Dong Chen's whereabouts.
He quietly put his hands in front of him to form a seal, and silently recited the incantation, and suddenly——
puff!
A mouthful of blood spurted out.
Ye Qiu's eyes went dark and he lost consciousness.
