Disaster Is Coming: Sequence Detective

Seeing Xu Nian's serious look, Fang Shuwan immediately told him everything.

It turned out to be Wang Yu, the owner of the rice noodle shop on the street. Her rice noodle shop was doing well, and she and her husband Liu Bucheng lived a good life. But a few days ago, the city defense army suddenly sent people to take away Liu Bucheng. At first, Wang didn't think it was a big deal. After all, Liu Bucheng was retired from the army. But with the obituary sent by the city defense army two days ago, Wang knew that her husband was dead.

This time, Wang's world fell. She either cried all day or made a fuss about going to the city defense army to seek an explanation. If the neighbors hadn't stopped her, I'm afraid Wang would have rushed to the city defense army's station.

Xu Nian's face turned very ugly after hearing this, and he didn't want to clean the shop anymore. He said in a deep voice: "Why did the city defense army take Brother Liu away? What was the cause of death?"

"The reason for taking him away is unclear, but the cause of death is said. It is said that he died fighting monsters outside the city wall. The city defense army also said that they would give Sister Wang a compensation of 100,000 yuan, but Sister Wang refused to accept it and insisted on seeing her husband's body."

Fang Shuwan couldn't help but sigh sadly while wiping the table with a rag.

Xu Nian frowned deeply, and after thinking for a while, he put down the broom and said with a heavy face: "I'll go see Sister Wang."

Fang Shuwan wanted to follow him, but after looking at the dusty shop, she didn't say it, but said with a complicated look: "Okay, you go and persuade Sister Wang too. No matter what the reason is, Brother Liu is gone, and the living people still have to continue to live, and Brother Liu is also treated as a hero, and it is said that he will be buried in the martyrs' cemetery."

Xu Nian nodded slightly and walked straight out of the store.

Sister Wang's rice noodle shop was not far from his office. After walking for a while, he arrived at the door of the rice noodle shop.

At this moment, the rice noodle shop was closed with a sign saying "temporarily closed", which looked very deserted.

Some neighbors on the street greeted Xu Nian with a smile when they saw him coming back, but when they saw the rice noodle shop, they sighed again.

Xu Nian thought for a while and knocked on the door.

"Sister Wang, are you there? I'm Xu Nian."

No one responded.

Xu Nian frowned and gently pushed the door, but it opened. The door was not locked.

Through the crack in the door, he saw that the store had been cleaned up. The dining table and chairs were gone, replaced by a very simple mourning hall.

On the main wall of the mourning hall was a black and white photo of Brother Liu.

Sister Wang was kneeling in front of a brazier with a white cloth tied around her neck, motionless. The brazier was full of paper ash, and the store was filled with the pungent smell of burning plant fibers.

"Sister Wang?"

Xu Nian leaned in front of the crack in the door and called softly.

Still no response.

After thinking for a while, he gently pushed the door open, walked in sideways, and then gently closed the door.

Walking to Sister Wang's side, he bowed three times to Brother Liu's portrait with a solemn expression, then slowly squatted down, looking at Sister Wang with a numb expression and said: "Sister Wang, please accept my condolences."

Sister Wang finally moved, slowly turned her head to look at Xu Nian, and when she saw Xu Nian's face clearly, her dead eyes finally had a glimmer of light: "Xu Nian?"

Xu Nian nodded heavily: "Sister Wang, it's me."

It seemed that Xu Nian's voice touched Sister Wang's heart. After a few seconds of silence, Sister Wang suddenly burst into tears like a flood.

"Xu Nian, your brother Liu died so tragically! Your brother Liu died so tragically."

Xu Nian opened his mouth to speak, but finally sighed, patted the crying sister Wang on the shoulder and said: "Sister Wang, I'm so sad."

I don't know how long she cried, until Sister Wang was tired and her face was red, she gradually stopped crying, and said with a sad face: "Xu Nian, your brother Liu is gone, he is gone."

Xu Nian was silent for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Sister Wang, I heard from Shuwan that you don't believe the city defense army's statement? You don't want to accept the compensation from the city defense army?"

Sister Wang's eyes reddened when she heard this, and gritted her teeth and said: "Yes, I don't believe it, your brother Liu has been retired for so many years, just I took away the kung fu, how can I sacrifice? "" I don't believe it, I don't believe it. "She seemed to have thought about it. The elder sister is all neighbors. I naturally won't be postponed, but you have to tell me what happened, and I can help you check it. "Sister Wang's eyes red, thank you, thank you, I know you are a good person." I do n’t know. I only know that before your Brother Liu was taken away by the city defense army, a man wearing a suit came to him, and then your Brother Liu had a heavy heart every day. He did n’t know what he was thinking. "Well, after the man came, your brother Liu followed him out, so I just took a look. The man was quite tall, about 1.8 meters tall, very strong, with a scar on his face. Although he was wearing a suit, he looked like he was full of muscles." Sister Wang's face was full of memories.

Xu Nian was shocked and asked, "Is he also a retired soldier?"

Sister Wang was stunned for a moment, then she realized what she was doing and said excitedly: "Yes, yes, he looks very much like a soldier, but he is not retired. I don't know."

Xu Nian nodded thoughtfully: "Is there more?"

"No more. The other thing is that the army sent someone to publish an obituary, saying that you, Brother Liu, are a damn bastard. They said that Old Liu died fighting a monster, so there was no body left. How can this be possible?"

"Old Liu is not an active soldier of the city defense army, nor is he a member of the Sonorous Rose Legion who often goes out to fight on the city walls. How could he fight monsters? And even if he fought, how come he didn't even leave a body behind?!"

Sister Wang said sadly and indignantly, while her eyes couldn't help but turn red, and tears flowed down.

Seeing this, Xu Nian felt comforted again. It wasn't until the other party calmed down again that he promised with a serious face: "Sister Wang, don't worry, leave this matter to me, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."

Sister Wang was grateful and wanted to kowtow to Xu Nian, but Xu Nian stopped her.

Despite this, Sister Wang still cried excitedly to the photo of her husband on the wall: "Old Liu, have you seen it? Xu Nian is willing to help us, Xu Nian is willing to seek justice for you."
