Chapter 217 The Wife's Secret

"The Land of Exile is, after all, someone else's territory. I can still rely on the Blade of Dawn to get some news in Eidolon City, as well as the help of the captain and the others..."

"Here, I can only fight alone."

"The other party has obviously stayed here all year round and is familiar with all the terrain and rules. This is not good for me. It is better to remove the Heart of the Lawful One and let them investigate."

Xu Ye made up his mind.

"You have a dirty mind when it comes to conspiracy." The gangster clicked his tongue.

Xu Ye smiled and said: "Master Bandit, you seem to be my heart."

The bandit fell silent.

Xu Ye stayed on one side of the street until it got slightly brighter, and then he saw a middle-aged man holding an urn, wearing a plaid shirt and a haggard face, walking back staggeringly.

After taking a few steps, he seemed unsteady and bumped into Zhang Qing, who was controlled by Xu Ye, and almost fell.

"Excuse me."

The man lowered his head, hugged the urn tightly, apologized, and didn't look up at anyone. He just sat on the steps by the roadside, leaning against the fire hydrant, and a hoarse whimper came from his throat.

It was like someone had torn the trachea.

Out of breath.

"Brother, what's going on?" Xu Ye put on a gentleman's hat to make himself look more prestigious, walked over, and handed over a tissue pretending to be concerned.

The man is Zhou Meifang’s husband, named Li Wan.

"Thank you." Li Wan choked up, but seemed to be wary of this strange young man and unwilling to say anything more.

This is very common in the lower three districts of Exile.

There was even a pistol on the man's waist. He deliberately turned his body sideways to show it, as a deterrent to make some people with ill intentions look away.

Suddenly, Li Wan saw a strange thing appear on his wife's urn, squirming and trembling, like a stomach bag.

His face stiffened.

He just felt a strange feeling well up in his heart. Gradually, his stomach became very uncomfortable and he had slight cramping. As time went by, the cramping became more and more serious.

He growled low and pressed his head against the urn.

"Brother, what's wrong with you? Your stomach feels uncomfortable? I'm a doctor. I can help if needed."

Xu Ye said quickly.

At the same time, without caring about the other person's consent, he stretched out his arm and patted the other person's back gently - it actually didn't work at all.

It was only at this time that he controlled Zhang Qing and stopped the curse of [the internal organs].

Li Wan's painful expression gradually softened, and he glanced at Xu Ye gratefully: "Doctor, thank you, you are a good person."

"My surname is Xu." Xu Ye smiled gently. His smile subconsciously imitated the captain's, which was harmless, calm, and generous, so that a strange emotion flashed in his eyes.

"Doctor Xu..." Li Wan obviously let down his guard against Xu Ye and showed a tired smile, "I'm sorry just now, my wife just passed away."

"I can understand the pain of losing my wife in middle age." Xu Ye sighed and consoled her.

Li Wan's face was full of weirdness, and he hesitated: "Doctor Xu, I'm only 25 years old..."

Xu Ye's face twitched and he glanced at the other person's hair, which was about to reach the Mediterranean Sea.

"I am a programmer and do maintenance work on computer programs at the FBI in District 9." Li Wan added.

That's great!

Since he is from the FBI, if he calls the police, he should be taken seriously. At that time, the federal law enforcement team will transfer the case to the Heart of the Lawful Ones.

"Sorry." Xu Ye sighed, "My condolences... But can you tell me how your wife died of illness?"

Li Wan pursed his lips: "No...she is very strange. As soon as she came back from her business trip to Yeling City, she felt that there was an eye looking at her."

"She was very uncomfortable at first and said that the eye was on her clothes. She took off her clothes in front of everyone, but I forcibly took her back to the room."

"But gradually, she became more and more uncomfortable. She said that the eye was on her skin. She started to pick at the skin with her fingernails, and they dug into the flesh with force. There was blood everywhere."

"Later, she said that the eye was in her body. She picked up the knife, pointed it towards her body, and stabbed it directly..."

"She is dead."

"There was a weird smile on his face."

"The hospital diagnosed it as delusional disorder. You know, in this world, there are many mentally ill people. Someone once said that there was a horse in his belly and he had to have surgery to take it out."

Li Wan's voice was a little sad.

The bandit said: "From her ashes, no abnormal aura was found. She should have been guided by the awakened one and then committed suicide."

Xu Ye nodded silently.

"Hey, as a doctor, I know these cases, but there's nothing I can do about it." Xu Ye patted his shoulder and guided, "By the way, don't you think there's something fishy about this matter? I mean, your wife might

It’s delusion, but it’s also possible…”

"You know... you work in the FBI and I work in a hospital. We always encounter some weird things."

"You mean..." Li Wan suddenly raised his head and understood, with a tangled expression on his face.

Xu Ye nodded calmly: "If you give it a try, you will feel more at ease. After all, this world is not peaceful."

Li Wan was thoughtful.

"By the way, who is your wife going on a business trip with? I mean, this can also be one of the directions of investigation." Xu Ye said casually.

"Her leader, Guanze, also works in the federation and is the secretary of the speaker. He is very good to my wife."

"He often sends my wife home. If there are any benefits in the workplace, he will give them to my wife first. Moreover, every time he goes on a business trip, my wife says that for her safety, the boss will share a room with her."

"He's such a good leader."

???

A big question mark appeared on Xu Ye's little head.

Good leader?

Is there something missing in this programmer's brain?

Xu Ye tested it a few more times, and it turned out that this programmer from another world was very determined and respected the leader who had an affair with his wife.

Brother, a green grassland has grown above your head, and you don’t even know it.

In desperation, Xu Ye could only stand up and say goodbye.

Fortunately, he at least achieved one goal, and the other party should ask the Heart of the Lawful One to investigate this matter.

Li Wan watched Xu Yeyuan go away. He sat dejectedly for a while, then returned home with the urn in his arms.

The spacious living room was filled with photos of him and his wife, items from their travels together, and of course, messy tables and chairs, broken coffee tables, and some blood stains.

The smell of rust still lingers in the air.

He walked to the floor-length mirror in the bedroom, held the urn in his arms, and admired his haggard self in the mirror.

Suddenly, a perverted smile appeared on his sad face.

The smile got bigger and bigger, more and more unrestrained, the corners of his mouth almost reaching the base of his ears, and his eyes, which were red from staying up late, were now filled with sickly bloodshot eyes.

"That person just now turned out to be the Awakened One..."

"It's not like we met by chance, but more like a contender for the Holy Grail who came to remind me and guide me?"

"I don't know if it's a black key or a golden key."

Li Wan lowered his head and took out a black key with the number "108" engraved on it.

"It seems that my wife was indeed involved in the mission to seize the Holy Grail. Although I really want her to die, I really didn't kill the person."

Li Wan looked confused.

"He should have been killed by other awakened people... Forget it, the doctor named Xu just now is harmless to me at least for now. My mission is to keep my secretary Guan Ze and let him continue in this position. As long as

Just don’t let him get involved.”

"Anyway, Xiaofang is dead. I have obtained the evidence of their affair. The rest is none of my business."

"As for my opponent...there are still nine days...there is no rush..."

He lowered his head, sighed, and kissed the urn.

"Wife, rest in peace."
