The deceased male was an old man living alone, a registered third-level master, and had no children... When Sir Lin and Captain Miyuki arrived, the scene had already been controlled by law enforcement who had arrived earlier.
"The person who discovered the body was an employee of the Social Welfare Department. Today is the day to distribute welfare subsidies."
"Preliminary judgment shows that the time of death should be five days ago..."
"We are already verifying whether the deceased has other relatives..."
"Captain, this is...?"
Miyuki glanced at Lin SIR and found that after he got off the car and put on a strange eye patch, he seemed to be completely different. "This is the consultant I specially invited to assist me in my investigation."
The subordinates did not ask any more questions. Every captain-level law enforcement officer in the General Administration has the right to hire a consultant within the team... He was just surprised. After all, this consultant appeared for the first time.
Lin SIR, who had not appeared at a dangerous scene for a long time, seemed a little excited. He entered the investigation state independently from the moment he walked in.
The law enforcement officers present at the scene had obviously experienced a lot in this kind of spontaneous combustion case and were very proficient in the process... The body was taken away soon after and will be sent to the forensics department for further investigation.
After Miyuki ordered some of her subordinates to start sweeping the door, she came to Lin SIR's side and asked, "How is it, Mr. Xusheng, have you found anything?"
SIR Lin ignored his joking remarks and asked, "When did this kind of spontaneous combustion death case first begin?"
Miyuki thought for a while and hesitated: "To say that the earliest...it should start to appear in [Infinite City], the time is probably...uh, it seems to be after you went to Kunlun as the [Fire Cloud City] representative team?"
Sir Lin nodded. He had indeed never heard of such a case before leaving.
"Have you ever gone to [Infinite City] to investigate?"
"There must be some." Miyuki said helplessly: "But you know, it's not easy to find something in that place."
Lin SIR was surprised and said: "You four teams don't have informants in [Infinite City]?"
Captain Miyuki was silent for a moment.
Lin SIR immediately understood, "It doesn't matter, it involves the safety of informants, and you were right not to say anything."
Miyuki rolled her eyes, "You nominally have the right to supervise the entire [Nantianmen] system. If you don't know it, who can know it? It's not that I won't tell you, it's just that I haven't been able to contact [Infinite City] for several days.
That informant.”
"So...missing?" Lin SIR frowned, "Who is the other party?"
Miyuki confessed this time: "His name is Tian Eclipse, and he is a private detective who mainly works in [Infinite City] and nearby cities. He used to provide us with some information on human trafficking."
Lin SIR thought for a while and said: "It stands to reason that if a private detective suddenly stops contacting you, it may be that he is involved in an investigation, so it is inconvenient... or maybe something has happened to him?"
Miyuki nodded and said worriedly: "I actually planned to look for it if I couldn't wait for his reply... I didn't expect that the incident at the [Luo Shen] Holy Land suddenly appeared today."
"Why don't you just go now?" Lin SIR suddenly smiled and said.
Miyuki mused: "The tasks assigned by the General Administration today are very serious. Everything is focused on maintaining stability..."
Lin SIR said: "Since you said that there will be people who will be unfavorable to this mission, then just think of it as going to [Infinite City] to inquire about information... Is there any place better than this place to collect intelligence?"
Captain Miyuki shrugged.
Sir Lin smiled and said: "Captain Miyuki, I am now making a formal request to you as the general advisor of [Nantianmen]. I hope you can assist me in investigating the information related to the [Luoshen] Holy Land Mission."
——The man has not become handsome, but he has become a lot worse.
Miyuki muttered, how could the former SIR Xiaolin have so many bad ideas?
But this really convinced her...compared to boringly patrolling the streets, investigating spontaneous combustion cases, looking for her own informants, and asking about the threatened actions behind the [Luo Shen] mission, it made her hormones secrete more.
"I'm going to get the car!"
…
Lin Feng: I have something to do at noon, so I won’t come back yet and will talk about it in the evening.
Daxian: Ha.
Looking at Daxian's word [ha] that seemed to have said nothing but that everything had been said, Lin SIR couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, and then typed many, many words, explaining that he was going to [Infinite City] next.
Cause and effect.
Daxian: Ha.
…
In the cemetery in the southern suburbs, Tantai calmly walked out of the room, but Lin Youde was missing.
"He went out." Tantai Wuque said calmly: "I never thought there would be so many people at home. I only live by myself on weekdays, so I don't have any extra food, so I have to buy it."
The Great Immortal sat down expressionlessly. Except for those with special hobbies and perseverance, which senior monk would go hungry if he didn't eat for ten or eight days?
Of course, if it's spiritual food, that's another story... Of course, there are also many people who just want to satisfy their appetites - the world of cultivators is so miserable, why can't they find some cheap happiness?
However, monks below the super level do need to maintain enough food every day to be able to cope with the huge consumption. Generally, the mass-produced food for low-level monks is improved from spiritual food and is extremely high in calories.
She suddenly said: "What do you think of [Huoyun City]?"
"which aspect?"
Daxian said calmly: "Environment."
Tantai Wuque frowned and muttered: "In terms of living environment, it is no less than the original [Kunlun City], both in terms of the quality and concentration of spiritual energy. However, the six realms are divided into [Human Realm]
] After the rebirth, it is normal for the heaven and earth to upgrade... I passed through the capital city of [Qingzhou] before, and the environment there was even better than here. What, is there any problem? "
"Do you think there is no problem?" Tantai said calmly: "Have you forgotten how many Luck Dragon Balls [Fire Cloud Team] took away?"
Tantai Wuque's gaze couldn't help but condense, "Has it not been used yet?"
"Why not?" Daxian sneered: "The upgrade of heaven and earth is the best time to use the Luck Dragon Ball, so that [Huoyun City] can get more. If you don't use it now, you can use it later. Is this reasonable?"
"Do you want me to check it out?"
The Great Immortal thought for a while and said rather discouraged, "Forget it, I won't get involved in this kind of thing, just know that there is such a thing... [Huoyun City] The water is too deep."
At the same time, she called out Bai Jun's name in her heart, but there was no response. Bai Jun should have followed Lin Youde out.
…
…
Before entering the city, Captain Miyuki changed into loose casual clothes. After covering her figure well, she even simply put on makeup to make herself look haggard and older.
Lin SIR was quite surprised.
Miyuki rolled her eyes and said: "We are here to investigate the case, not here to show you vulgar pretense and slap in the face. You have already disguised yourself, why can't I?"
After putting on makeup, Captain Miyuki, who turned into a five-level girl, walked in the lower area of [Infinite City]. She really didn't attract much attention - there were some people peeking in secretly, probably because of her unfamiliar face.
As for Sir Lin wearing an eyepatch... there was another one wearing a wrestling glove on the road just now.
There are a lot of strange people here, and everyone is careful to hide themselves... Lin SIR actually didn't enter [Infinite City] many times in the past. In the limited few times, he actually came in with Ama SIR.
Miyuki quickly took Lin SIR to find Tian Eclipse's office, an office on the second floor of a paper-like building.
"Depending on the situation, he probably hasn't opened the door for several days." Lin SIR took a look at the surrounding environment.
Captain Miyuki fiddled with the door lock a few times, and the door opened naturally. Only then did Lin SIR discover that Miyuki was an expert at breaking formations... This door lock was obviously equipped with restrictions.
Seventh level.
Silently sensing Miyuki's true cultivation level, Lin SIR had to sigh at the current monk ecology of [Huoyun City]. As expected, everyone is improving rapidly.
The two walked into Tian Eclipse's office. After looking around, they found nothing special. Captain Miyuki shook his head helplessly, "Tian Eclipse eats, sleeps, and works here and hasn't been back for so many days.
, I’m afraid we are really in trouble.”
SIR Lin said: "You asked him to help you investigate the information on spontaneous combustion cases in [Infinite City]. Did you say anything before?"
Miyuki shook her head, "I just said that the upper level of [Infinite City] seems to be deliberately covering up this matter behind the scenes. If you continue to investigate, you may be in danger, so you have to pay more."
"Well……"
Captain Miyuki said angrily: "He robbed my bag! Limited edition! A money-minded guy!"
——The resentment of older unmarried young women who have lost the joy of buying bags.
Sir Lin suddenly stepped forward and hugged Captain Miyuki.
"Wait!! I'm not sure yet..."
boom--!!
The entire detective office exploded instantly, flames rushed out of the street, and the shock wave caused many residents on the narrow road to suffer... At this time, Sir Lin protected Captain Miyuki, surrounded by a light shield of pure spiritual power.
The surrounding area was charred to charcoal.
"Is everything okay?" Sir Lin asked with concern.
Captain Miyuki shook his head quickly.
"Wait for me here." Lin SIR's face turned slightly cold and he had already stepped out of the building.
Before Captain Miyuki could say a word, she had already lost sight of him... She took a long breath and tried her best to calm down her emotions after the attack.
She thought she would have to wait for a while, but unexpectedly, Sir Lin returned soon, holding a man with a pale face in his hand.
He has bleached and dyed hair, and his left arm is a modified prosthetic magic weapon, but it has been broken, probably directly broken by Lin SIR. At this time, he has an expression of pain and panic.
"Is this the guy who made the sneak attack?" Captain Miyuki came up with a pair of suppressor handcuffs.
Lin SIR nodded, "There was more than one. They escaped separately, and only this guy was caught."
Miyuki knew very well how complicated the [Infinite City] was. If people were thrown here, they would just disappear... She had no hope at all, but Sir Lin actually caught one, which surprised Captain Miyuki.
"Tell me! Why are you attacking us!" Captain Miyuki's voice became serious, "Who is instructing you?"
The imprisoned young man with colorful hair laughed strangely at this moment.
Captain Miyuki frowned, but Sir Lin stretched out his hand to pull him back, and saw a gray-white flame suddenly spit out from the young man's mouth!
His eyes, ear holes, and then the pores on his body... were burned in just an instant.
The young man screamed in the flames, but his face was not distorted, but a kind of madness, "Vacuum - ah!!!"
…
"Vacuum..." Lin SIR was stunned, his expression gloomy.
The young man had spontaneously combusted and burned into a coke-like appearance. There was an unpleasant smell in the air... Captain Miyuki looked ugly. This was the first time she had seen the scene of spontaneous combustion. In the past, she had only seen corpses left behind after spontaneous combustion.
Seeing that Lin SIR looked different at this time, she couldn't help but ask, "Lin Feng, do you know something..."
Lin SIR said solemnly: "When I was in [Kunlun City] before, I met a group of people. When this person spontaneously combusted just now, I felt very similar to that group of people... [Lotus Holy Cult].
"
"The one who is as famous as the [Thousand-Year Demon Cult]..."
Lin SIR nodded and talked about some news he heard, "I heard that five hundred years ago, they should have gone to the [Lotus Holy Sect] to cause trouble, but I don't know what happened. Five hundred years ago, the [Lotus Holy Sect]
] did not show up, but this time during the Kunlun Tribulation, the [Thousand-Year Demon Sect] appeared ahead of schedule."
Miyuki smiled bitterly and said: "So, are we involved in some shocking conspiracy?"
Lin SIR thought for a while and said: "These people should have been lurking nearby early in the morning. They should be monitoring the detective agency... When we came, no one should be following us."
"Are they here for the eclipse?" Miyuki was stunned.
"High probability." Lin SIR said: "It should be to ambush him here or something. As you saw just now, the man also died of spontaneous combustion. Your informant probably investigated what happened behind this
Someone’s something.”
"Someone is coming." Sir Lin raised his eyes.
"It should be the security team of the lower area." Captain Miyuki said quickly: "Let's leave here first. It's very troublesome to deal with the security team of [Infinite City]."
…
Not long after, a security team arrived at the scene. After providing basic treatment to the injured residents, they quickly took away the body of the spontaneously combusting person from the bombed paper building, and then left silently.
.
In this regard, the nearby residents also remained silent, as if they were used to it, and would only discuss it privately and secretly talk about bad luck.
Sir Lin and Captain Miyuki quietly followed this security team, intending to see how [Infinite City] dealt with such spontaneously combusting corpses.
But when he saw the security team walking directly into a garbage incineration factory, Sir Lin couldn't help but shook his head, "Okay, it's really rough and efficient."
But this seems to indicate the attitude of some of the upper-level areas of [Infinite City] towards this matter.
Miyuki said that she wanted to take the body away because it was a member of the organization and it was very likely that she could find some clues... Lin SIR thought for a while and agreed.
There was actually more than one corpse sent here to be burned.
There are many deaths that occur in [Infinite City] every day, from assassinations to vendettas...
The employees in the factory have obviously become accustomed to it, and even the management is quite lax... Since there are so many corpses delivered every day, there is even a special morgue here.
Captain Miyuki was standing in front of one of the corpses, stunned - this was not the burnt corpse of the colorful-haired young man.
Lin SIR's heart was moved, he frowned and said, "Could he be Tian Eclipse?"
Captain Miyuki nodded slightly.
Lin SIR pondered for a moment, took out his cell phone, and cut open the clothes on the corpse with sword energy, and took a photo of the corpse's chest, "This wound looks a little strange."
It is indeed rare to see a cross-shaped chest penetrating wound. Miyuki couldn't figure out what kind of weapon caused it, so she took a picture herself, and then the two quietly took away the bodies of Tian Eclipse and the colorful-haired young man.
.
…
Lin Feng: Ma SIR Ma SIR, you are Lao Jianghu, I want to ask you something, do you know how this kind of wound is made? [Picture] [Picture]
The horse is eating... [Three swords and six holes]? Who is this person?
Lin Feng: What is [Three Knives and Six Holes]?
Ma SIR: In the past, the [Shinto Society] used three swords to go in and six holes in the chest. No matter where your heart is, it can always pierce it. If you don't die, all the things you have committed will be wiped out...
How did you get involved with the [Shinto Kai]? Where are you now?
Lin Feng: Do you know more about the [Shinto Association]? Send it to me first, it will be useful.
Ma SIR: Wait a minute, I will sort it out.
It's impossible to make a phone call, you can only use a spiritual message. It's always like this when my wife comes, most of all voice, I didn't see it because I didn't notice it!
…
The corpse was directly put into the storage item. While Sir Lin was investigating the case, he and Captain Miyuki pretended that nothing happened and continued to wander around the lower area of [Infinite City], secretly listening to the residents' reactions to the spontaneous combustion case.
"Yes... yes, Lin Feng, thank you very much just now, how about I treat you to a meal..."
“Wonton noodles.”
“...wonton noodles?”
Sir Lin suddenly let out a sigh and walked out quickly... He walked to a food stall selling wontons, pulled out a small folding stool and sat down.
The person sitting at the same table was an ordinary-looking young man who was eating wonton noodles.
"Who are you?" The young man opened his mouth in surprise.
Lin SIR casually took off his blindfold and said, "It's me!"
The young man was stunned for a moment, as if he felt unbelievable, and then said: "Brother Feng?"
"Ha." Lin SIR smiled: "I didn't expect to meet you here. When did you come back, Brother Li Bai!"
Li Bai casually glanced at Lin SIR's eye mask on the table, and was slightly surprised: This thing actually fooled him?
"I've been back for a few days." Li Bai said calmly: "After the Kunlun incident, I luckily escaped. Later, my family was worried about me, so I rushed back... Oh, by the way, Tu Du and Xiang Shao
Yu and the others came back earlier."
"They are okay too, that's great." Lin SIR nodded, and then said in surprise: "By the way, Li Bai, you... live in [Infinite City]?"
Li Bai smiled and said, "My family is just running a small business here. I come here to take care of it."
After speaking, Li Bai pointed to a shop not far ahead... Lin SIR took a look and saw that it was a photo studio.
