Sequence: The God Eater

Chapter 8: Finding that person's trace

Just over two hours after Qin Siyang left the trash can at the exit of the 89757 safety zone, many uniformed police officers received orders to surround the place.

Many sequence ability users were also discussing what happened outside, with confusion and puzzlement on their faces.

The theft of the remains of the gods in the trash can is really an absurd story.

A white-haired old man wearing a coat, a scarf around his neck, and a cigar in his mouth, walked around the trash can and asked, "Roelena, your sequence has been promoted. I heard that you can have a more powerful tracking ability, ten times better than the director's police dog. Do you have any way to distinguish the smell here now?"

The blonde policewoman next to him shook her head: "No, there are too many breaths of gods here, and the smell of the human race has been completely covered up. Even now, I still can't recognize the breath of humans from it. If I activate the skill here, I'm afraid I will faint because of the strong smell of the gods."

Olov was a little disappointed: "Well, it's a damn skill. It can't be used at the gods. It will cause us a lot of trouble if we use it! "

"Yes, I think so too. Unfortunately, I awakened the [Scent Man] sequence, which cannot be changed. Sequencers like me are born to move only in the safe zone."

Olov took two puffs of his cigar impatiently, flicked the ash into the trash can, and then turned to the onlookers and asked, "Who discovered the problem in this trash can first?"

"It's me! Inspector Orlov, it's me! I'm Hans Van, the sequencer who hunted the gods at the exit of the 89757 safe zone."

At this time, a man in a gray-brown jacket came over, his hair was a little messy, and he smelled a little alcohol.

It was the drunk who ran into Qin Siyang.

But now he is no longer drunk, very sober, and his expression is full of tension.

After waking up, Hans realized that someone had stolen the remains of the gods in the trash can and was shocked.

He didn't want to get involved in this matter.

The person who stole the remains of the gods must not be a normal person, and he didn't dare to provoke him. After awakening the sequence, he just wanted to live in the safe zone with the identity of a sequence ability user.

But he couldn't help but throw a wine bottle into the trash can.

The bottle had his scent, which was an ironclad fact that he couldn't deny. If a [Smell Man] activated his skills, he would be able to lock him quickly, and then he would be in trouble.

So in order to avoid the police coming to his house to cause trouble, he reported the matter to the police station first, hoping for leniency.

"Tell me how you found out."

"Inspector Orlov, I just had a drink with Blue at the bar, and then we went home. When I left the bar, I took another bottle of wine and planned to drink it on the way home. After I finished drinking, I happened to see a trash can here, so I wanted to throw the bottle in."

After hearing this, Roelena severely accused: "Hans, you are also a sequence ability user, don't you know that the trash can next to the exit of the safe zone can only be used to store the remains of gods?! Moreover, you actually drank near the exit of the safe zone! Don't you know that this is a taboo?!"

"I... I drank too much, I didn't think so much..."

Qin Siyang made the right bet. It was Hans's unclear mind that gave him time to escape. Otherwise, it might be a completely different story.

Orlov seemed to be used to seeing this kind of sequence ability users who were not doing their jobs. He was not as angry as Roelena about Hans' words, but waved his hand: "Roelena, don't interrupt him, let him continue."

"Okay, detective." The blonde Roelena looked at Hans with indifference in her eyes.

"I seemed to see a figure rummaging in front of the trash can, but it disappeared quickly. Of course, I'm not sure if there was anyone... because I was drunk."

"Then what?"

"Then I threw the bottle in. At that time, I heard the sound of the bottle hitting the empty trash can. I thought it was midnight. The cleaner took away the remains of the god and went home."

"When should that be?"

"I... I drank too much. I don't know. I fell asleep on the bed after I got home. I am a [Sleepless Man] sequence, so I usually don't need to sleep. Even if I am drunk, I will wake up after sleeping for two hours at most. When I woke up, I found that it was only afternoon. Thinking of the memory of the empty trash can, I felt something was wrong."

"Then you called the police?"

"Yes. Inspector Orlov, considering that I took the initiative to call the police and admit my mistake, can you not punish me for throwing the bottle in this trash can and delaying the time to solve the case?"

Orlov took another puff of his cigar and pondered for a long time.

While he was thinking, Hans was worried about whether he would be punished.

"Loelena, remember to tell the managers of other safe zone exits about this and ask them to keep an eye on the trash cans."

"Yes."

"Inspector Orlov, what about me?" Hans asked anxiously again.

Orlov realized that Hans was still here: "Oh, I was just thinking about the case, what do you want to say?"

"I want to ask, if I took the initiative to call the police, can I make up for my mistakes and not be punished for the mistakes I made here? I really realized my problem, and I will never make it again in the future. Please give me a chance!"

Orlov didn't even bother to look at him: "Business matters. There will never be any tilt in the order balance of the police station. You will be given the reward you deserve. The punishment you deserve will not be less."

"Ah this..." Hans was a little annoyed. He had clearly taken the initiative to report the crime and fully cooperated in solving the case, but he still had to be punished. What bad luck.

"Take him back to the police station." After receiving the instructions from her boss, Roylena immediately asked the police to take Hans back.

"yes."

Hans had a gloomy look on his face and cursed the damn person who stole the remains of the god.

After sending Hans away, Olof continued to frown and think: "Committing a crime by one person? Why on earth did this person steal the remains of the gods from the trash can? To steal such useless things, it is better to go to the warehouse and steal some moldy wood for use. Come and light the fire!"

Roylena added: "A similar scene happened yesterday at the exit of the safety zone No. 114514. I reported it to the director, but unfortunately it didn't attract enough attention. I only deployed defenses at the exit of the safety zone near No. 114514. As a result, he ran a little further away. The place where the crime was committed.”

At this time, Roylena's pager rang.

"Hey, please tell me. What? Okay, tell me. Well, um, um, okay, I understand. I'll tell Inspector Orlov now."

Orlov heard Roylena mentioning him and knew that there should be a new case, so he asked: "What else happened?"

"Detective, we found three charred corpses in a warehouse that was burned to ashes in an alley two stops away from here."

"Corpse? Burnt?"

"That's right. Moreover, the heads of the three corpses were all shattered and the entire faces were completely deformed. Because of the fire, I couldn't trace the smell of the murderer."

"Then can we start from the place of the incident and look for the smell of the murderer?"

"I'm afraid that won't work either. Because the police officer just said that there are people coming and going there, the footprints are mixed, and the smell is probably very messy."

"Have you found the first scene?"

"No. There are no signs of fighting anywhere near that warehouse."

Orlov smoked his cigar without making a sound.

Roylena continued: "Detective, there is something wrong with this."

"speak."

"What are the identities of the people whose heads were smashed? Why did the person who killed him hide his identity? I always feel full of weirdness."

Roylena's series of questions did not defeat Orlov. As an experienced police detective, he had almost figured out these issues a moment after hearing the facts of the case.

"I'm afraid it's hard to know the identities of those three people. However, the person who killed them must be a sequence ability user."

"Otherwise, it would be impossible to kill all three people without leaving traces of the fight. The weapon that smashed the heads of the three people was probably that person's fist."

Orlov looked at the empty trash can again and vomited: "In my opinion, the time of the crime in that alley was just after the remains of the trash can god were stolen. There is a high probability that one person committed the crime."

Roylena frowned: "Is it the same person? After stealing the remains of the god here, he went to a place two stops away to kill and set fire?"

"Yes. The timing of these two things happening is as perfect as a key and a keyhole. It's too much of a coincidence."

"Secondly, I think this person is not familiar with sequence capabilities."

"Why does the detective think so?"

"Because after he crushed the heads of three people, he also chose to burn the bodies."

"I guess the reason why he smashed the heads of the three people was because he was worried that [Immortal] sequence ability users could use their skills to read the corpse's memory. However, he didn't know that [Immortal] sequence ability users had the ability to read memories. limited."

"Once the brain becomes diseased or loses its original biological structure, the [Immortal] Sequencer's skills will become ineffective."

"In other words, no matter whether he crushed the heads of the three people or not, as long as a fire burns the corpses, he can hinder the pursuit of the [Immortal] sequence ability users."

Oylena asked doubtfully: "Detective, are you saying that he doesn't even know such basic sequence knowledge?"

"Other than that, I can't think of any other reason why he would do this unnecessary thing."

Roylena nodded, thinking that the detective's analysis made sense, and then said: "The person who stole the remains of the gods does not understand the sequence information. It may be because he suddenly awakened the sequence ability and has not done enough homework. We As long as you go to the Sequence Management Bureau and stay there, you should be able to find the prisoner!"

"No, it's not. The premise that you haven't done enough homework is not true."

Orlov shook his head: "This man's mind is extremely delicate. He knows how to pick places with confusing smells to disturb you, and he also knows how to burn corpses to destroy evidence."

"Roilena, you have to understand that he is not a criminal who commits crimes calmly and is prepared to kill these three people. He just stole the remains of the gods and did this while running away in a panic. It has to be said that although this prisoner Ignorant, but definitely not careless.”

"It is impossible for him to steal the remains of a god and expose himself when he is not fully prepared. His thinking is finer than the eye of a needle in a sewing shop. His doing so shows that he has no channels to obtain more information."

Roylena straightened her slightly messy blond hair and showed a puzzled look: "How is that possible? The ability descriptions of sequence ability users are all made public in the [God Killing Camp], and everyone can use their mobile phones or computers to check them. ”

"No, you are wrong. There is a kind of person who cannot inquire."

"who?"

"Poor people."
