Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

7 o'clock in the morning.

Le Xiao woke up from the sound of the alarm. After a while, Le Xiao fell to the floor. She got up and pressed her dizzy head. After a while, Le Xiao woke up. She went to the living room to get some ice water to drink.

"Eh? Miss, why are you at my house?"

As soon as Lexiao arrived in the living room, she saw a girl sleeping on the sofa. Jamie was getting ready for school next to her. Cheng Yue woke up and she hurriedly got up and said.

"Master Le Xiao, you asked me to sleep at your house last night. Have you forgotten?"

Le Xiao tried hard to recall, but her memory went blank. After a while, Le Xiao remembered some fragments. She did agree to the girl to help her investigate last night.

"Hurry up and wash up. Let's go down to have breakfast first, and then go to Huanzhuang Street."

After Le Xiao finished speaking, Cheng Yue nodded happily. The uneasiness in her heart finally let go. Sure enough, Le Xiao was as approachable as she appeared on the screen. She didn't feel the oppression of a high-ranking person from her. Instead, Cheng Yue felt like She is like the big sister next door.

After a while, the two went downstairs talking and laughing. Many people were eating breakfast downstairs. Yu Fangfang had prepared a lot of things, but Cheng Yue was a little different.

"There are so many things, Master Le Xiao, can you finish them?"

Le Xiao nodded with a smile. She took a bottle of beer and planned to take a sip. Cheng Yue was surprised.

Luo Ziyun came over and said.

"Sister Le Xiao, I will go with you today."

Le Xiao yawned and nodded. Today Le Xiao is going to Huanzhuang Street to check the situation, and people from the embassy will also go. The embassy will choose a location on Huanzhuang Street as a specialty store for Asgardian products.

After a while, the three of them went out and went directly to the subway station. At 8 o'clock, Le Xiao walked out of the subway station. Officials from several local districts were already waiting.

Cheng Yue followed awkwardly. As soon as she went up, she found that she was noticed by many people, and many people were looking at Cheng Yue.

As soon as Le Xiao went up, the reporters came over. No one from the embassy had arrived yet, so Le Xiao planned to wait here. Facing the reporters, Le Xiao calmly answered some questions.

Cheng Yue lowered her head nervously, Luo Ziyun went over and patted her shoulder.

"Don't be nervous. It's nothing."

Although Luo Ziyun was so comforting, she also knew that Cheng Yue was just an ordinary person, and standing next to such a high-ranking person would inevitably make people suspicious.

At 8:20, people from the embassy also came over. Helt and Nigel looked very sad. Le Xiao greeted them with an embarrassed smile.

"Two generals, I'm really sorry for last night. I drank too much."

The two of them were also a little helpless. They drank until they lost their memory last night. Nigel even vomited several times. Although Helt didn't vomit, he felt uncomfortable all night. They didn't expect that Le Xiao could drink so well. , almost the entire mission collapsed.

"Your Excellency Le Xiao, you really can't drink like this next time."

After Nigel finished speaking, he couldn't help but cover his mouth, Le Xiao nodded with a smile, and the group started walking. At this time, Helter noticed Cheng Yue. He was a little confused, but he didn't ask anything.

The group of people looked at the situation on Huanzhuang Street while walking. Several section officers were reporting on the recent situation on Huanzhuang Street. They had to decide on a location today. Although Huanzhuang Street was very lively, the rent was not cheap. This area There are always people closing and opening businesses on the streets, and some houses on the streets are still vacant.

Now it is time to choose a house to convert into a shopping mall, which will be used as the embassy's specialty store and as a viewpoint. More and more reporters are following Le Xiao and others, taking pictures.

At this time, everyone came to the small square of the Second Ring Road. There was an old building that belonged to a certain family. However, because the rent was too high, a businessman who ran a cafe here closed down a while ago.

After seeing it, Le Xiao felt that this place was quite nice. A section officer from Section 1 went over to open the door and introduced it. The decoration inside looked quite retro, and Nigel looked at it happily.

Everyone looked at it from below. Hert felt that the only drawback was the poor lighting. If it were to be rebuilt, it would affect the neighboring houses.

Helt said it directly, Le Xiao was right, and then everyone went to the next place to look at the houses.

We have to finalize it today, and then start planning the design according to the embassy’s opinions and start construction.

After the mission from Brilliant City passes, the first batch of goods from Asgard will arrive in about a month, and the goods from Brilliant City will also go to Asgard.

After looking at several places, Nigel and Helt both had a place they wanted to use as a franchise store. The next step was to find a place and discuss it in detail.

And then Nigel asked.

"By the way, Mr. Le Xiao, who is the young lady following you?"

Le Xiao then remembered Cheng Yue and smiled.

"I came to Section 13 yesterday to report the case. I was thinking that since I have to come here today to do something, I might as well take her with me and investigate the case after the matter here is over."

Nigel was a little surprised, and the people present realized it at this time, but everyone immediately became suspicious of this case, because the case that the secretary personally investigated might be a big problem.

Luo Ziyun was very anxious at the side. She didn't know what Le Xiao was thinking. It would be better to fool her at this time. Sure enough, everyone's eyes turned to Cheng Yue at this time, and she seemed even more nervous.

When lunch was approaching, the place was finally determined. It was at the intersection of the Third Ring Road. The place was relatively spacious and the view was very good. Nigel and Hert were also very satisfied.

"By the way, Mr. Le Xiao, what kind of case is it?"

Nigel asked. He couldn't help it. After all, it was not a small problem for the secretary to investigate personally.

Helt felt something was wrong. They shouldn't ask about this kind of thing. Everyone present felt confused. After all, it was definitely not a small problem for the secretary of Section 13 to personally participate in the investigation.

Le Xiao smiled.

"This lady's friend was killed by a ghost, that's probably what happened."

After Le Xiao finished speaking, many people were confused. Luo Ziyun felt something was wrong and hurriedly pushed Cheng Yue aside and asked her to stand up and explain the situation.

Although Cheng Yue was embarrassed, he still stood up and explained what happened. Fortunately, reporters were not present.

Everyone felt that this matter was like a joke, and some people even started to search on the Internet. As expected, many people searched for such posts. There were only a small number of them, and there were three or four about the ghosts of Brilliant City.

Nigel said helplessly.

"Your Excellency Le Xiao, what are your considerations based on this? After all, do supernatural things like ghosts really exist?"

Le Xiao smiled.

"Whether it exists or not, I think what she said is true. If it wasn't true, there would be no need for her to come to Section 13. It's impossible for normal people to say that ghosts exist. They must have seen and heard it with their own eyes. Only then can I say it.”

Le Xiao's words surprised everyone present, including Cheng Yue, who wiped her tears and said thank you gratefully.

After a while, a local Section 5 officer had found the identity information of several posters and notified them, asking them to come to Section 5 at 2 noon to assist in the investigation.

Helt felt a little surprised. He couldn't understand how Le Xiao judged the authenticity of this matter. It was true that the girl did not seem to be lying, but it was unbelievable without evidence.

Everyone continued to chat about the Asgard store. After a while, at 1:40, the first poster was brought over. He was a male.

It was the first one Cheng Yue saw. This man said that he got a promotion and a salary increase because of meeting a ghost.

"Master Le Xiao, I was just joking."

Le Xiao was dumbfounded. She could feel her cheeks turning red at this moment. This man had indeed received a promotion and a salary increase, but it was not due to ghosts. It was because he had recently completed a big deal that the boss gave him a promotion and a salary increase. It was because he had been running the market for a long time that he was able to encounter such a big order.

After everything was explained, the man left. At about 2 o'clock, the girl who had posted food posts came. She looked very ordinary, in her 30s. She posted before because she saw the man's posts. , so I posted it myself because I thought it was fun.

Cheng Yue felt so uncomfortable that she even began to wonder if she was hallucinating, but when she thought about that day in the coffee shop, they did receive a call from a man who claimed to be a ghost.

But Section 5 had already gone to investigate and called in surveillance cameras. The two of them were blocked behind a partition and couldn't see the situation at all.

Then the earliest poster was also found. This man claimed that because he listened to the ghost, he killed everyone in the casino and won tens of thousands.

However, the fact is that this man lost thousands in the casino and has not won any money at all recently.

The atmosphere at the scene was very embarrassing, and Le Xiao felt uncomfortable all over, because all the eyes were looking at her, while Cheng Yue lowered her head and blushed, falling into deep self-blame.

Lexiao felt her cheeks getting hot, and Helt said at this time.

"Miss Cheng Yue, what was the sound you heard that day?"

Helt asked, Cheng Yue thought for a while and said.

"It's a very clear man's voice."

Le Xiao looked confused and Helt said.

"Aren't there various voice-changing softwares in the city? Can't the voice also be queried?"

Le Xiao immediately nodded and stood up.

"Yes, why didn't I think of that? Thank you, General Hult."

Many department officers and director officers present felt that this matter was really nonsense, but they had no choice. Asgard's envoys were present, and this was what Le Xiao wanted to investigate, so they had no choice but to comply.

Very happy, Xiao opened a piece of software that was used for business. Cheng Yue talked about the few words he heard that day. A director began to debug the software and play some sounds.

Cheng Yue recognized it, shook his head constantly, and said something about the voice in his memory. The director patiently adjusted it.

"That's it, it feels a little lower."

Finally, an hour later, when everyone felt helpless, Cheng Yue heard a voice. This voice was very similar to the ghost's voice he heard that day. After gradually debugging, Cheng Yue said that it was this voice.

The next step is to investigate. Use this voice to conduct large-scale comparison and investigation. The process will not be too slow. After all, the efficiency of urban AI is very high.

The Criminal Investigation Department has used this method to investigate some cases in the past, and there have been examples of finding criminal suspects.

After more than ten minutes of screening, it was found that 387 people had 90% similar voices, 3945 people had 80% similar voices, and 19387 people had 70% similar voices. There is no need to look at the others.

It is extremely difficult to check such a huge amount of data. Then the director continued to narrow the scope, and there were 103 people with a similarity of more than 95%.

"First identify these people. Their voices are included in the database."

A long process of identification began. Cheng Yue sounded similar to each one, but it was impossible to tell. At this time, Eddie Hillman's name appeared in the voice. Cheng Yue stopped and heard someone else's voice. .

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the voices of 103 people were played. Cheng Yue selected more than 30 people, but there was still no way to confirm because 16 of the more than 30 people were dead.

Le Xiao looked at the frustrated Cheng Yue and didn't know what to say. After all, this was really the same as finding a needle in a haystack, said a director.

"Master Le Xiao, we can only investigate slowly."

After a while, everyone left the restaurant. Hert invited Le Xiao to have dinner with him, but Le Xiao declined because he had something to do.

"I'm really sorry, Master Le Xiao."

Cheng Yue lowered her head. She felt that there was nothing she could do. Le Xiao comforted her.

"It's okay, we will definitely investigate this matter."

Cheng Yue nodded and left. Le Xiao stretched her limbs comfortably, and Luo Ziyun asked in a low voice.

"Sister Le Xiao, don't you doubt it?"

Le Xiao smiled.

"Xiaoyun, I think that child is quite serious. What she said cannot be false. There must be something unclear. Let's go back and take a closer look later."

6:20pm.

Le Xiao and Luo Ziyun went to the General Affairs Department to handle some matters and returned to Section 13. They were waiting for their meal and looked in detail at what happened and the prank posters.

Leng Rui came down at this time. He looked tired and pale.

"It's hard to see you coming down. Fangfang was the one who brought the food up before."

Leng Rui said angrily.

"Who did this?"

Le Xiao said with an embarrassed smile.

"Xiao Leng, your current salary is higher than mine."

Leng Rui said.

"In a few years, I will probably die of overwork. You are better, the method you came up with is indeed good, but I am the one who suffers."

Luo Ziyun smiled helplessly, and Yu Fangfang came over with something.

"Xiao Leng, it's okay. The nutritious meal I made for you can replenish everything your body needs."

Leng Rui lay on the table, Le Xiao and Luo Ziyun continued to discuss the ghost matter, Leng Rui smiled.

"Ghost? There's something wrong with you, right?"

Luo Ziyun explained what happened today, and Leng Rui said disapprovingly.

"It must be fake. Maybe that woman wants to attract attention or something. You are really free."

As soon as Leng Rui finished speaking, Le Xiao twisted his ears. Leng Rui pushed Le Xiao away, but at this time he saw the content of the post on the file and then said.

"This is not simple. If they are really wearing micro earphones and following the instructions of the ghost, that guy may have a way to erase the call records on the network, but micro earphones are different. After the secondary conversion of the signal, there will definitely be residual If it’s something like that, just go to their house and get their headphones to investigate.”

Le Xiao blinked and asked.

"seriously?"

Leng Rui glanced at Le Xiao and said.

"Of course it's true. Idiot, you think I'm the same as you. I'm an information professional after all."
