Bright!
Chapter 111 The compiled suicide note and the sudden death of the old man
Gu Beichen and Xu Le rode to the vicinity of Lighthouse University. The guard this time seemed a little different from the previous ones. He recognized Xu Le the first time he saw Xu Le.
"Isn't this A Le? In this uniform of yours...have you become a night watchman?"
People you know?
Xu Le looked at the other person with a guilty conscience. This kind of person who is not particularly familiar and seems to be more enthusiastic is the most troublesome.
Among those scattered memory fragments, he couldn't find the other party at all, so he could only say with a smile:
"Yes, uncle."
"Oh, by the way, how is Lao Zhou doing lately? He hasn't come to work for a while. Do you know his current condition?"
"Old Zhou, he passed away."
"Ah, he left so early. I heard that he still has a wife and children... Hey, life is unpredictable, the big intestine wraps up the small intestine!"
"Yes, things are impermanent." Xu Le nodded.
"Then you go and do your work quickly, I won't disturb you anymore."
"good."
"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing."
Xu Le stopped and looked at the guard with some confusion:
"What's wrong?"
"I wish you a bright future, Ale."
Not sure whether he felt the other party's sincerity or some other factor, Xu Le nodded to the guard:
"Thanks."
…
Passing through the school gate, Gu Beichen led Xu Le on a road he had never been to before.
Judging from Gu Beichen's familiarity with the surrounding environment, he should come to this place often.
"Ale, haha, your name is just like the waiter in the food stall."
"Neuropathy."
"But Xu Le, do you know that I used to be a member of the Extraordinary Society of Beacon University, but I was a special recruit.
In terms of seniority, I am 4 years ahead of you, so you should call me senior. "
Listening to Gu Beichen's serious analysis of seniority, Xu Le had no intention of paying attention to him.
But when he reached a fork in the road, Xu Le stopped.
"You should go this way to go to the extraordinary club of the university, right? That side seems to be the dormitory."
Hearing Xu Le's question, Gu Beichen's eyes instantly became blurred:
"Yeah, we have to go to the dormitory first."
Xu Le was a little confused, but he didn't know anything about recruiting people, so he could only follow the idea of taking care of Beichen.
"Then let's go."
The two came to a slightly special dormitory area.
As for the special place here, it should be the training facilities around the dormitory.
Judging from the knife marks on the piles, the targets, and the dumbbells that looked very exaggerated, this should be a temporary training place for warriors.
So this dormitory should be a warrior’s dormitory?
Judging from the underwear hanging at the door of some dormitories and the pink quilts, this should be a girls dormitory?
There are no women in the team now. Does Gu Beichen mean to add female players?
Under Xu Le's confused eyes, Gu Beichen walked up to the old lady.
"Grandma, I'm Gu Beichen. I'd like to get the key to Shunliu's room."
Hearing what he said, Xu Le frowned suddenly, Shunliu?
The housekeeper's mother-in-law looked at Gu Beichen kindly, and then took out a bunch of keys:
"We're finally here. Well, this is the key to Shunliu's room. Go quickly."
"Okay, thank you, mother-in-law."
Gu Beichen was about to leave, but Xu Le looked back at the old woman who was still laughing at them.
He felt something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on what was wrong.
Xu Le did not ignore this feeling. Every intuition of the forbidden warlock had a reason.
After leaving the dormitory room, he took out an ancient Yinduo card and took a look at it.
【White Brand-Four Leaf Clover】
A four-leaf clover symbolizes luck.
Positive: Unconditional luck, good things will happen.
Opposite: Fragile life.
"Good thing?"
Xu Le put the cards away.
Gu Beichen looked at Xu Le taking out the card and said with some confusion:
"What are you doing divination for? Four-leaf clover, it looks like we should have gained something this time, right?"
Xu Le did not answer his question, but asked directly:
"Did Li Shunliu live here before?"
"I live in the night watchman's dormitory on weekdays, but I come back every weekend to stay for a day or two."
"What is the purpose of your coming here this time?"
Xu Le clearly remembered that Gu Beichen was also possessed by the shadow demon, when the shadow demon collected the souls in the town.
Gu Beichen said that it also included Li Shunliu's soul. Maybe he discovered something from it.
Hearing Xu Le's question, Gu Beichen smiled bitterly:
"I want to know who she belongs to and why she did it."
"Understood."
The two came to Li Shunliu's dormitory. After opening the door, Xu Le smelled a smell similar to disinfectant.
The house is very clean, not only because there are no decorations that are common to girls.
Even the quilts and beds are white, a bit like the white color found in hotels and hospitals.
He immediately opened Guyin Duo Vision and scanned the room to make sure there was no pollution before speaking:
“This place has been cleaned, and there is anima neutralizer and disinfectant.
Judging from the intensity of the smell, the disinfection time should have been not long ago, that is, someone has been in this room within the past few days. "
Gu Beichen heard Xu Le's analysis, but he just nodded and said nothing more.
Gu Beichen came to Li Shunliu's desk and picked up a white letter on the table.
It says, Gu Beichen takes it.
Gu Beichen did not open the envelope, but handed it to Xu Le.
"Help me see if this letter has been touched."
Xu Le nodded, took out his dagger and carefully opened the seal of the letter.
It can be seen from the re-glued and torn seal that this letter has also been opened.
Although it was re-adhered, the technique was very casual.
It seemed that the person handling this room didn't particularly take Li Shunliu to heart.
"Moved."
"Since it has been processed by someone, it means that it may be difficult for us to find traces."
"The traces of a level 2 warrior have to be erased. Since he is not Mrs. Ju Ya's person, Li Shunliu's situation seems a bit strange."
"Forget it, let's read the letter."
Gu Beichen opened the envelope.
[Beichen, by the time you read this letter, I will probably be dead. Let this be my suicide note. I don’t know if you can see it. 】
Gu Beichen tightened his fingers and continued to look down.
[There is no need to investigate my identity. I know that you are a person who cannot even take care of yourself, let alone investigate the truth. Living well is more important than anything else. 】
[If you really want to know, then I can only tell you that all this is of my own free will. I have not been coerced by anyone, and everything belongs to my own will. 】
These slightly sincere words probably belong to different types of spiritual attacks.
Xu Le couldn't help but say:
"I think what she said makes sense."
"Shut up."
"good."
[I have always wanted to confess to you, but I never had the chance. 】
[The timeline is like whether you choose to take an airship or a steam car. The final direction is the same, but the transportation you choose is different. 】
[It’s like you and me, like the wrong time and the wrong person. 】
[I really like you, Gu Beichen. 】
This letter is like a simple love letter. Just a few lines of scrawled handwriting express Li Shunliu's feelings and reluctance.
When Xu Le saw Gu Beichen holding the letter and not speaking, he knew that he might need some time alone now.
"Well, let me go out for a walk. Call me if you need anything."
"good."
Xu Le walked out of the dormitory and went downstairs, ready to ask the dormitory housekeeper here who was the person who came here a few days ago.
According to Xu Le's opinion, the door was not damaged.
In other words, the other party most likely got the key, opened the door and tidied the house.
Although the dormitory manager is very old, maybe she still has an impression of the person from before.
Tuk-tuk-tuk!
"Hello, mother-in-law, I want to ask... huh?"
The closed door was knocked open by Xu Le. The former housekeeper was sitting at the door of the room, leaning on the chair, her body relaxed and her face peaceful.
Xu Le looked at the old lady who had lost her breath and was slightly speechless.
There are no traces of fighting here, and the old lady's expression is very stable. It seems that the day has come and people have left.
[A corpse appears in this area. Affected by the light environment, it will be distorted into level 1 weirdness after 71 hours, 57 minutes and 23 seconds]
"It was just a matter of time to go upstairs, wasn't it such a coincidence? It was just fine just now."
Xu Le didn't intend to care about these things, and was about to contact the guards here, but he suddenly stopped.
From the very first time he came here, he felt something was wrong.
He couldn't tell what was wrong at the time, but now he was slightly aware of it.
The strange smell was somewhat similar to the rotten smell on Bai Jing's body.
The first time Xu Le smelled this smell, it was covered by Bai Jing's perfume. The second time it was because Bai Jing's sublimation of life was too strong.
So there was a slight difference between those two times and the smell of the old man.
Xu Le smelled it carefully, as if he wanted to confirm whether the two smells were the same, but was interrupted by a sudden sound.
"Hey, who are you? Why are you here? Mother-in-law? What's going on? What did you do to your mother-in-law?"
At this time, several girls who were traveling together seemed to be going back to the dormitory, and they were wary of Xu Le and the others who appeared here.
However, Xu Le just let them see his uniform, and then took out his ID and said:
"The night watchmen are investigating the case, please stay away."
"Night watchman?"
When these female students saw that Xu Le was really a night watchman, their expressions immediately changed.
His words and deeds also became more regular.
For students who are admitted to university and enter the Society of Extraordinaries, especially those from ordinary families in downtown areas.
If they can join the night watchman system, their future treatment and family will be sufficiently guaranteed.
So it's understandable to offend the guards, but it's very undesirable to offend the night watchmen.
Xu Le sighed that the night watchman ID was so useful, and at the same time shouted to the people upstairs:
"Gu Beichen, something happened, come down."
"I'm feeling sad, what's going on?"
Gu Beichen's dissatisfied voice came from upstairs, but Xu Le soon heard the footsteps coming downstairs.
When Gu Beichen saw the dead old lady, he immediately contacted the guard:
"Next time you encounter something like this, contact the guard first so that you don't have to wipe your butt clean."
"Okay, got it."
Xu Le remembered that the last time he encountered something strange in the city, Gu Beichen's approach was to contact the guards first.
At this point, he did not follow the rules and procedures.
"Did you check it?"
"After a brief inspection, there is nothing suspicious."
"Then why are you calling me? Tell the guards to take it away and burn it."
Seeing the surprise on Gu Beichen's face, Xu Le slowly pinched his chin.
"The smell on her body...is somewhat similar to the captain's previous smell."
If it had been anyone else, Gu Beichen would have said casually at this time that the old man must have an old feel to him.
However, this matter involves Bai Jing, and even a guy with his personality cannot ignore Xu Le's words.
Gu Beichen opened the door and walked in. The smell made him frown slightly.
"It feels a bit like the smell of an old man, but also a bit different. It's much heavier. It's indeed a bit similar to the captain's smell."
Gu Beichen's statement was completely consistent with Xu Le's thoughts.
But at this time, the guards stationed at the school had also arrived.
"Two Lords of the Night Watch, do you need any help?"
"Help dispose of the body."
"Don't you need to examine the body?"
"I'm not a forensic doctor. What you think of me is too outrageous."
Whether the old lady died of natural causes is meaningless to Xu Le, and psychics don't need evidence to get answers. The evidence is for others to see.
After the guards dragged the old lady's body out, the two returned to the house and locked the door.
"Are there any items in this room that are related to the death of the host? The spells are all ancient Yinduo secret words."
【Red Card-Angel】
Positive: affirmative, correct, good approval.
Xu Le looked at Gu Beichen and nodded.
"Although I'm not sure if it was homicide, at least there are items here related to her death."
"Then what are you looking for? Just look for it."
Xu Le and Gu Beichen began to search the room tacitly.
The two of them did not let the guards interfere during the rummaging process. If there was really evidence at this time, it would be the best time to destroy it.
At the end of the page, Gu Beichen dug out a few medicine bottles from the drawer on the side of the desk, with antihypertensive medicine written on them, which were very common ones.
After opening the medicine bottle and smelling it, Gu Beichen threw the medicine bottle to Xu Le and said:
"Check this."
"Hypertension medication? What's the problem?"
“I used to buy antihypertensive drugs when I was a child. These antihypertensive drugs are not cheap, and certainly not very expensive either.
Although it is true that a dormitory manager of a university can afford this medicine, under normal circumstances, a dormitory manager will have better and cheaper options.
Of course, these are not the most important things. The most important thing is that the taste of this medicine is wrong. "
Listening to Gu Beichen's analysis, Xu Le looked at him in surprise. Was such a clear and quick thinking really not taken away from him?
"Gu Beichen, if you are snatched away, just blink."
"roll."
Seeing that Gu Beichen had no intention of being taken away, Xu Le didn't waste any time and directly took out the card and injected it with psychic energy:
“Are these pills related to the death of the housekeeper’s mother-in-law?
Techniques - all - ancient sounds and many secret words. "
【Red Card-Angel】
Positive: affirmative, correct, good approval.
"That's probably it. I don't know what the ingredients are, but it's not an antihypertensive drug."
Xu Le picked up three of the bottles and poured out some more pills.
One bottle was given to Gu Beichen, one bottle was given to himself, and the remaining bottle was packed in a bag.
"Need to keep three copies? What did you find?" Gu Beichen looked a little strange.
"I didn't notice it, it just felt like something wasn't right. She has so many here, so get more to be prepared."
"It makes some sense."
"What about now?" Xu Le asked.
"Keep recruiting people. Whether we are investigating the Shunliu matter or the pill matter, we still need manpower.
And if you want to maintain the existence of the 6th team, personnel replacement is necessary. "
Xu Le nodded first, then shook his head:
"What about the top level combat power? There are only two level 3 warriors, Brother Shu and Niu Yuan, in the team now, and there are no level 4 warriors.
Although there are three warlocks, Teacher Gan and I are both red moon warlocks. Although you are a disaster warlock, you are also level 2 and cannot have the final say. "
When Xu Le said this, he was still paying attention to Gu Beichen's expression. He was surprised and did not refute.
"Yes, our side lacks high-end combat capabilities. Unlike Team 5, even if Zhou Jie retires, there will be someone to replace him, and Wang Yueqin and the others will not limit the personnel of Team 5.
Last time I said that I could apply for personnel from the Human Resources Department, but I didn’t know if experts would be sent down.
Moreover, the situation of Team 6 is special, and most people are not willing to come. "
Xu Le could hear the worry in Gu Beichen's tone. If the team that the captain finally managed to save was disbanded, everyone would be very sorry.
"But have you ever thought about it, if the above really sends down a level 4 warrior or a level 3 warlock, the Night Watch Team 6 will also change hands."
Xu Le's words made both of them silent for a while. Gu Beichen shook his head:
"Hey, it's useless to talk about this now. Leaving you and Mr. Gan alone, we currently only have three people in the execution department of Team 6. Let's recruit all the people first."
"good."
As they talked, the two returned the same way, and then turned to the side of Chaofan Academy.
However, as the two of them walked along, they were actually followed by a few girls from the dormitory, and they followed Xu Le and Gu Beichen's undisguised conversation.
After these girls from the Extraordinary Society followed for a while, as if they mustered up the courage, they patted Xu Le and the two of them:
"Excuse me, are you here to recruit night watchmen from the academy?"
The two of them looked at each other, and Gu Beichen pursed his lips, signaling Xu Le to take care of it.
Xu Le was not ambiguous and said straight to the point:
"Yes, we are here to recruit"
"Then...can I?"
"And I."
"Me too……"
Xu Le was a little surprised by the excitement of these girls. Is such a dangerous profession as a night watchman so popular?
Since he is here to recruit people, and someone responds, he naturally has to deal with:
"Then are any of you a warlock or a level 2 warrior?"
There was silence, and no one answered Xu Le.
This situation is actually not beyond Xu Le's expectations. Really talented people have long been selected by the Night Watch's personnel department.
The remaining crooked melons and cracked dates will most likely enter the guard system.
A warrior at level 0 will most likely be a guard or something, and a warrior at level 1 can be a guard captain, that's all.
"Sorry, your strength is too weak and cannot meet our standards."
Xu Le shook his head slightly, left the group of disappointed female students, and continued walking towards Chaofan Academy with Gu Beichen.
"I hope there will be characters over there that satisfy us."
"There are so many girls..."
"Ah?" Xu Le was stunned. Where was this guy's previous affection?
"No, I mean... there are a lot of talents over there, there will definitely be some."
