Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

Zhuang Xuteng lost his memory for a period of time: he could not remember how he got out of the elevator, got in the car, or drove onto the street. When he came to his senses, he saw a long queue of vehicles in front of him, as well as gray smoke still drifting in the distance.

He adjusted his mental state for a moment, then stepped on the accelerator and drove the armored vehicle directly towards the roadside. The wheels rolled over the railing, and the white beast rushed down the roadbed, then passed forward from Shaoyuan. Someone behind him tried to follow, but the models were different and the horsepower was hugely different. A car directly drove its front face into the drainage ditch, blocking the road Zhuang Xuteng rushed out again.

Bypassing the heavy traffic, Zhuang Xuteng came to the location of the accident. He stopped the car and walked straight over. The air was filled with the smell of fire-extinguishing foam and chemicals, and gray-black liquid with foam flowed from the roadside gutters to the plain. A cordon was drawn at the scene, two fire trucks flashed their lights, and seven or eight firefighters had finished their work and were sitting next to the red vehicles to rest. Someone was calling the tow truck and asking why the hospital ambulance hadn't come yet. There were bodies that needed to be removed.

Zhuang Xuteng jumped onto the roadbed and directly crossed the cordon. In the center of the former fire scene, only the remains of a car were left. After it hit the hazardous materials transport tanker, the corrosive liquid gnawed away at it, like digging into wax with a soldering iron. Zhuang Xuteng found that there were still traces of burning at the scene, mainly concentrated on the tank truck, and part of the car was also ignited, and now it was all covered with foam. On the drier, cleaner side of the field, four insulated body bags were placed side by side, and a PCPD firefighter stood nearby to register them.

"Where did you come from? You are not allowed to enter here, get out!"

The firefighters came to drive them away, and Zhuang Xuteng took out his wallet. "I received news that my relatives may be among the deceased. My name is Zhuang Xuteng, and my brother's name is Zhuang Teng. I am willing to buy information: Do you know the identity of the deceased?"

The firefighter who came to evict Zhuang Xuteng was in his forties, with a dark complexion and a face full of vicissitudes of life. He stopped when he heard the words, raised the palm of his right hand and said: "No matter what, stop there first and don't move. There is still corrosive liquid here. Although it is diluted, it is not completely safe. You...you first put your Take out your ID and let me see if you are telling the truth."

Hearing this, Zhuang Xuteng's heart froze. He took out his ID and showed it to the other party, and his arm couldn't stop shaking slightly. The middle-aged dark-faced firefighter squinted his eyes and leaned forward to take a closer look. Then he sighed and said, "I'm sorry to tell you the bad news: Zhuang Teng died in this accident. Judging from the scene, he died instantly. , there should be no pain.”

Zhuang Xuteng couldn't breathe for several times in a row, and his eyesight turned black, and then he sat down on the ground. The firefighter quickly came over and pulled him up, dragged him to the fire truck and leaned him against it. "The water on the ground is not clean, don't touch it. Please take a moment here and show your condolences."

The firefighters nearby saw this and came over to ask what was going on here. Through their names, Zhuang Xuteng knew that this middle-aged dark-faced man was "Captain Jia."

"He is the younger brother of the deceased. He was there when we just checked the identity information and social and family relationships." Captain Jia sighed and said: "I will take him to have a look later. The identity cannot be completely determined by just looking at the relics. It is best to let the family members Recognize it."

"Why did he come here so fast? We only had time to check the relics ten minutes ago and found the identity information through PCPD." Someone said to the captain: "Captain, Pm0-55."

"I'm not a suspect who returned to the scene." Zhuang Xuteng lay down on the fire truck for a while and partially recovered. After hearing their conversation, he turned around and said, "I'm resting now. I want to go see the situation."

"I didn't expect you to have learned PCPD terminology." Captain Jia shook his head and said, "Although you are mysterious, at least there is no problem with your ID, and we are also contacting the family members. Oh, your phone is ringing."

Zhuang Xuteng took out his phone. It was his sister, so he quickly answered the call. Zhuang Feifei was crying on the phone, her words were incoherent, and she seemed to be in a hurry.

"I'm at the site of the car accident and going to check on the situation. You..." Zhuang Xuteng said, "You go home right now and check on your parents. They may be working in the fields and don't know this yet. Something. Yes, you can go back now and I will contact you after seeing the situation here."

After hearing Zhuang Xuteng's arrangement, Zhuang Feifei immediately found her backbone and knew what she was going to do. She asked Zhuang Xuteng to tell him immediately no matter what information she had, then hung up the phone and went to find a taxi. Zhuang Xuteng put away his phone, nodded to Captain Jia, and said politely: "Excuse me, what is going on?"

"Go this way, follow me, don't tread water." Captain Jia led the way and said at the same time: "We received the alarm, and then came from the opposite lane. When we got here, there was no way to save it. According to my experience, the car The accident occurred when the vehicle lost control and hit the side and rear of the tanker - you can see traces of tire skidding on the road. What actually happened requires detailed investigation."

"The impact caused a leak, and chemical corrosion ignited the battery, causing a fire. The two people in the car died on the spot. They made no attempt to leave the damaged vehicle and the fire scene. The two people in the truck died when they came down to check the situation. Of the ones that fell, one was injured on the head by the corrosive liquid splashed, and the other died from the fire caused by the deflagration."

"The car was severely corroded, but the chemicals also blocked the flames, so only a small part was burned. We found a bag containing documents and documents in the wreckage, and the identity of the rear passenger was known from the items inside. The driver in front , no information was left at all, and the body was also very mutilated." Captain Jia led Zhuang Xuteng to the body bag, put a hand on his shoulder and said, "Be mentally prepared first, the body is in very bad condition. "

He opened the body bag, and Zhuang Xuteng covered his mouth with one hand. Not only is it in a bad state, it is completely changed beyond recognition, dilapidated and unrecognizable. Zhuang Xuteng tried hard to compare the corpse in front of him with his brother in his memory, but he could not establish a connection with the body that had been burned to a near-skeleton state.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. Zhuang Xuteng breathed hard and quickly to supply as much oxygen to his brain as possible. He found that there was not much corrosion at the ends of the body's limbs, so he quickly picked up the left hand of the body and turned it over with the palm facing up.

There was a diagonal scar in the palm of that hand, cutting right through the lifeline. "It's my brother. He was stupid again and grabbed a knife. He was injured here, that's what it looked like."

"My condolences." Captain Jia said, "The deceased's belongings are here. Do you want to take a look?"

Zhuang Xuteng shook his head. He said nothing, held his brother's remaining arm tightly, and stayed there.

Captain Jia patted him on the shoulder and said: "Young man, listen to me and put it back. The person is dead, so let him be in peace. Since you understand the code language of PCPD, you must also know the processing procedures. People from the hospital will come over, they will check the identity again, and then go through the procedures according to the insurance plan, and then discuss the funeral with you. If you zip up the bag, it can be stored relatively well."

"I know..." Zhuang Xuteng's voice was hoarse. He lowered his head deeply, slowly let go of his hand, then put the body back into the bag and zipped it up. Then, he stood up and asked: "At present, is this an accident or is it caused by man-made things?"

"I am a fire fighter, not a criminal investigator, and I am not as good as a traffic police officer." Captain Jia said: "What I can confirm now is that the car lost control briefly, and only two parties were involved, one big car and one small car. From the impact trajectory, Look, the small car is fully responsible, so there will also be the issue of compensation for the deceased in the big car..."

"If someone kills my brother, I will not spare him." Zhuang Xuteng couldn't listen to other things at all. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and muttered to himself.

Captain Jia pursed his lips and made no comment. He understands the feelings of the relatives of the deceased and cannot accept that the subsequent state is anger, so he often imagines that someone is responsible for this, and then vents his emotions to the fictitious responsible person. The most important thing at this time is not to provoke him, comfort him more, and find him something serious to do.

"We contacted several people based on the information registered by the PCPD. Your name is among them, but your phone number is not available." Captain Jia said: "Listen to my advice and send a message to your family to appease their emotions. Now you have to Hold on, take care of the elderly, they..."

"Thank you, thank you." Zhuang Xuteng came to his senses and bowed deeply to Captain Jia. He took out a wad of bills from his wallet and stuffed them directly into Captain Jia's pocket. Captain Jia's recommendation was in vain in the face of the super calculation and five-dance martial arts. He looked at his pocket in confusion and asked what it meant.

"I have to go back quickly to see my parents and appease their emotions. I have no other meaning with this money. I just hope that you can handle the scene well and handle it with care." Zhuang Xuteng said: "I only have this money with me, but I still have a lot of money. Please say hello to the medical staff who transported the body and other people who may be involved. If you need more money, you can come back to me."

Captain Jia frowned, sighed, and said: "If I return the money to you now, you can't feel at ease. So, I promise you, I will take good care of you. As for you, just concentrate on taking care of other family members. You can't die. After resurrection, those who are still alive need more care.”

"Yes, you are right." Zhuang Xuteng looked back at the body bag and was about to leave when he heard a firefighter shouting from a distance: "The deceased's sister is here, do you want..."

Zhuang Feifei is here? Her car isn't that fast, is it? Zhuang Xuteng turned around and saw a woman he had never seen before, but the way she stood and walked seemed a bit familiar. The woman raised her hand, waved to Zhuang Xuteng, and then called "Second Brother".

Who is this? Zhuang Xuteng walked over with clenched fists, ready to punch any counterfeiters hard. But before he got in front of the woman, he saw her controlling her mouth movements and saying four words: I am Lucy.

Lucy? Zhuang Xuteng calmed down a little, and he also remembered the reason for the familiarity before. Lucy usually wears a mask. Zhuang Xuteng doesn't know what she looks like, but judging from the years of her career, she can't be that young. Could it be...

Observing carefully, Zhuang Xuteng noticed differences in the skin on her face, neck and hands, and estimated that she was using some kind of camouflage hood. Well, judging from the time, Lucy should have rushed over immediately after informing Zhuang Xuteng. The difference in distance from the city caused them to go one behind the other.

"Sister, don't look over there, listen to me." Zhuang Xuteng stopped Lucy, pulled her away from the cordon, and then lowered his voice and said, "I don't know what you look like, how can you prove..."

"Forty-three million." Lucy confirmed her identity with a number. "I put down the phone and came over as soon as possible. The intelligence network hasn't updated the news yet. What did you find here?"

"The body was severely damaged. From the old injuries on the hands, I am sure that the deceased is my brother." Zhuang Xuteng repeated Captain Jia's judgment, and then said: "I don't accept the theory that the vehicle suddenly lost control, unless it can accelerate while losing control. . Collided from the rear, what is the speed difference required to cause the collision to be like this? And where is the driver's remedial driving? Why can't it be avoided?"

"I also feel that something is a little strange. I just responded to his request to provide protection, and something like this happened." Lucy lowered her head and said: "I have ordered the security team to gather immediately, completely sort out the clues, and find out where the problem lies. .”

"I need to figure this out. Sister Lucy, please."

"I also want to make it clear." Lucy looked at Zhuang Xuteng and said, "Professionally speaking, the client dies, but it is still a protection mission. This is an extremely serious accident. I am the middleman and have a great responsibility. Personally speaking , this is your relative again, I will definitely investigate to the end. But there is something I want to say in advance..."

"You tell me, I'm listening."

"If this was just an accident, you handle it properly. I mean, you don't blame the other mercenaries on this protection mission."

Zhuang Xuteng frowned and didn't speak for a long time. He kept asking himself to think calmly, but this kind of thing was just unbearable. "No!" He rejected Lucy and said: "Even if it is an accident, I will not forgive them. Dereliction of duty is dereliction of duty, there is nothing to say. The only thing I can guarantee you is that people without responsibility will not die."

"Are you going to liquidate me too?"

"You are just a middleman. Unless you deliberately found a group of rubbish, or deliberately concealed important information, this matter has nothing to do with you." Zhuang Xuteng patted his head and said, "Lucy, my mind is a little messed up right now. Don't worry about it first." I have said these things. I still have a lot of phone calls to make, and I have to go back to appease my parents. I still believe that you will find out about this matter. If someone deliberately harms my brother, then I have an enemy. If it is purely If it's because I failed to handle an accident, or because I was disabled or neglected my duty, then I will definitely find someone to settle the account. In this matter, I only recognize my own truth."

"I can understand. If it were me, I would make the same choice." Lucy nodded and said, "I have only one request: if you act, you must be with Brother Dao and take care of each other. You two When we are together, we are invincible, and he is also your brother to a certain extent, okay?"

Zhuang Xuteng nodded, then silently walked down the roadbed and walked towards the white beast. He wants to go home, to the home that is destined to be missing one person.
