Trafford’s Trading Club

In the conference room, Chen Mingming recalled what he saw on the parchment and compared it with the analysis of the case, confirming both sides. But he found that the content on the parchment was exactly the same as what the police had.

Not only the information, but also the identity is ready.

It seems that the boss did not deliberately make things difficult for this exam question... He even said that he completely gave himself convenience. On the other hand, the time to solve the case is now within five days.

"...Currently, we have tracked two other women who are related to Wang Liang." The person in charge of intelligence compilation was updating everyone with new information at this time, "However, according to the time of death finally released by the forensic doctor, we found that Both women have alibi, which basically eliminates suspicion."

Another female police officer continued: "Sir Ma, Sir Zhou, I have compared similar cases in the past three years with information on some fugitive wanted criminals, and I have found nothing in common..."

"Is it possible that this is the first and second time he commits a crime?" Mahoude rubbed his eyebrows, "The first time he committed a crime, he was so meticulous. Is this murderer the devil?"

They don't even know whether the murderer is male or female, approximate age, height and weight, etc. They just know that the murderer is a mysophobic person.

Zhou Yusheng was knocking on the table, lost in thought.

This was the first time that Chen Mingming was so close to the person handling the case... In such an environment, Chen Mingming couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

At this time, Zhou Yusheng was silent, his brows furrowed... This was another side of Zhou Yusheng that Chen Mingming had never seen before.

In his memory, his father was often drunk and irritable.

Chen Mingming, who had not seen his father's calm side in countless years, unknowingly lost his mind... It turns out that one day, could he really handle a case with his father?

He gradually became confused about what was true and what was false.

It was as if the self at this moment was the real one... Everything before yesterday was just a dream.

"Is there something on my face?" Feeling Chen Mingming's gaze, Zhou Yusheng couldn't help but froze.

Captain Zhou is a loud-voiced person, and his voice quickly attracted everyone's attention. They all looked at him... Chen Mingming was not used to having so many eyes on him at the same time.

They were different from the students in the school, and their eyes were also different from the students in the school... Subconsciously, Chen Mingming felt a little panicked.

He took a breath and had already thought of the words to respond. But when the words came to his lips, Chen Mingming found that he couldn't say them... The words that almost blurted out ended up being just: "It's nothing."

"Yes." Zhou Yusheng nodded, and then fell into deep thought again.

Chen Mingming was stunned, then stood up subconsciously and whispered, "I'm going to the bathroom."

With that said, Chen Mingming left quickly and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

But he didn't really go to the bathroom, but came to an empty small balcony on the floor... He subconsciously unbuttoned the collar, and then he felt that his breathing became smoother.

"I can actually..." Chen Mingming looked at the street outside.

The constant flow of vehicles, mixed with the faint voices of people, Chen Mingming quickly calmed down and he soon realized his problem.

Under the eyes that were different from those of the students, and the environment that was different from the classroom, he actually subconsciously chose to hide himself... He instinctively felt restrained, and he even felt like he was not breathing smoothly.

He even felt...nervous.

Chen Mingming suddenly fell into a trance... In just one group meeting here, Chen Mingming realized a problem: he didn't seem to be as good as he imagined.

"What are you thinking about?"

…

Suddenly, Chen Mingming felt someone tap him on the shoulder from behind... It was the voice of his father, Zhou Yusheng.

Chen Mingming tried his best not to panic too much... He shook his head and did not speak.

Zhou Yusheng smiled at this moment and said: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. You have only been a police officer for a short time and you have encountered such a big case. It is inevitable that you will be a little nervous."

Did you see it? Chen Mingming was startled... He thought about whether there was any flaw in him.

"I...do I look nervous?" Chen Mingming frowned and asked.

Zhou Yusheng pointed at his eyes and said: "You don't look nervous, but you are still too young! What do I do, your father? Dad, I have seen eight hundred or not a thousand prisoners, and my eyes are Can’t hide it.”

"I..." Chen Mingming was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Maybe."

Zhou Yusheng suddenly grabbed Chen Mingming's shoulders with both hands, "Relax, you are the first to graduate from the academy. You are much better than dad and I. I just have more experience than you. But these things You will also have it, so you will definitely be better than me in the future."

In my impression...he has never said such words to himself.

Chen Mingming nodded and suddenly said: "I want to go to the murder scene again."

"The scene of the murder?" Zhou Yusheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "That's fine, maybe something is really missing... Just wait a moment, I'll get the car, and I'll go there with you."

Naturally, the investigation of the scene was not limited to the one when the body was discovered. In fact, many investigations have been carried out since then. However, for those who hope to solve the case, as long as the case is not solved for a day, the scene has the value of investigation.

Looking at Zhou Yusheng's leaving figure, Chen Mingming gave a bitter smile.

Investigating a case with his father... This was something he had never even imagined.

This different feeling made it difficult for Chen Mingming to maintain his usual calmness from the beginning.

He suddenly thought of the most suitable adjective to describe his current state: high-minded but low-handed.

…

…

"...Okay, you continue to follow Zhao Le. Once you find the target appears, notify him immediately."

At the city's office of the administration, Liu Minghao took the call from Bubugao and then started eating today's breakfast while watching the news on the intranet of the administration.

"Brother Hao, we have finished talking to Director Liu. He will arrange the next thing." Wei Zidao came back from outside at this time, "What are you looking at?"

Liu Minghao said casually: "Look at the news about the 'Death Network' case."

"Is there any new news?" Wei Zidao heard about it and asked curiously, "This case is so mysterious. It's been almost half a year, right?"

"Yes." Liu Minghao nodded.

This "death network" case was first discovered about half a year ago. During this period, some dead people appeared one after another across the country.

From time to time, there are cases where young people addicted to the Internet suddenly die suddenly.

Generally speaking, it is not uncommon for people to ignore their own health because they are addicted to the virtual world, and even fight in the virtual world for days and nights, and eventually die suddenly. Basically, if a similar situation is discovered, it will be classified as natural death locally.

But as such examples began to increase, they gradually attracted the attention of the management authorities. They have specialized departments that will pay attention to various ordinary types of cases at all times, because there are many extraordinary crimes hidden in these In seemingly ordinary cases.

Finally, when someone discovered that during this period, more than 70% of the people who died suddenly due to the virtual world were all because of playing the same 'game', it... finally caused the Administration to of attention.

The administration began to intervene behind this mysterious case, and soon discovered an incredible thing. People who died suddenly because of this game, after they were found dead, their game accounts were still able to be active in the game. .

Yes, it is an activity, an activity that can move, chat, and download copies, not just accounts that exist as game data. What is even more incredible is that the IP addresses of these accounts belonging to the deceased cannot be found.

It was as if it appeared out of nowhere.

As the investigation deepened, the Bureau even discovered many people in a 'coma' state. These people basically fell in front of their computers, and the game was displayed on their computers.

At present, there are many patients in coma-like conditions across the country. Although they are scattered across the country, there may be only one inconspicuous case in some places, but when taken nationwide, the number becomes very impressive.

Those who are in a coma, their accounts are still active, but suddenly one day, these accounts will suddenly disappear. At the same time, those who are in a coma will also die directly.

Finally, the Bureau named the case "Death Network". It was a case of extraordinary nature, and it came to a shocking conclusion!

Those are these comatose people. Their three souls and seven souls may have been sucked into this weird game!

During this period, the Administration invested a lot of manpower and material resources to pursue this case. Only the extremely serious case that occurred in Taishan last month caused this case to be temporarily suspended. Now the Taishan case has been settled, and the death The network' naturally started investigating again.

Liu Minghao and Wei Zidao are not the ones investigating this case, but they are always paying attention to the victims of the 'Death Network'. There is no fixed geographical pattern. Maybe they will be involved in other cases in the process. Encountered?

"On this point, in the past half month, the number of people in coma has suddenly increased." Liu Minghao frowned: "It has increased almost at a rate several times before, and it is no longer limited to "Emerald Fantasy" This game is over."

"Is it getting serious?" Wei Zidao also frowned.

As far as he knew, the victims who appeared at the beginning were all playing the same game, so the company that produced the game was naturally investigated thoroughly from top to bottom.

Originally, the administration had thought about shutting down the game company's servers directly, but they were concerned about whether the souls trapped in the game would be affected, or even directly lead to the death of comatose people, so the game had to continue to be maintained. Operations In fact, this game company has now changed hands and is currently under the strict control of the administration.

"Yeah, I'm having a headache up there."

Liu Minghao said seriously: "And there is one more thing, that is, the original game suddenly received an update last week. However, this update was not independently developed by the game company, nor was it completed through the game's server. Automatic version update. Our people can't trace the source of the update data at all! After this update, the number of comatose people began to increase, and it was no longer limited to playing this game, but in this game, too A lot of abnormal accounts have appeared inexplicably... It seems that this situation has begun to occur even abroad."

"Also abroad..." Wei Zidao subconsciously took a breath, "This... can it be said that virtual games have become monsters?"

"I don't know." Liu Minghao shook his head: "But now the bureau plans to send people to play this game, hoping to find a way for souls to enter the game... That's all for now, and there is no more."

"How many victims are there?" Wei Zidao asked subconsciously.

"According to incomplete statistics, there are almost 80,000 people." Liu Minghao said: "And most of them are dead. There are still about 16,700 people who are in coma."

Wei Zidao smiled bitterly and said: "If this number continues to grow, I'm afraid the bureau won't be able to cover it..."

Eighty thousand people seems to be a lot, but if scattered across the country, or even around the world, it seems so small. But no matter how small it is, when this number continues to grow, it will inevitably attract the attention of society. When the time comes, it will No simple explanation can cover up the matter.

"Yeah..." Liu Minghao smiled bitterly and said: "It's been such an eventful time... By the way, the equipment I applied for should be delivered in the afternoon. Let's see if we can find the location of 24 by then. Go and prepare. .”

"OK!"

…

In the distant capital, the headquarters of the Administration.

In a room filled with dozens of high-end computers, row after row of men and women were struggling to kill... the monsters in the game.

"Damn it! Is the first level of this Demon King's Castle a hell difficulty!"

"Breast me quickly, breastfeed me quickly!!!"

Hot shouts and shouts were heard one after another. This place seemed to be the most common... Internet cafe in the city.

"Attention everyone, I have a request for money here!"

Suddenly, in front of one of the computers, a young man pressed the bell next to the table. This instantly attracted everyone's attention, even one of the persons in charge of the case.

"yes/no?"

"After playing for so long, it finally appeared...the secret behind the game."

"Agree or disagree? Team leader?"

"Agree! Otherwise, all our efforts will be in vain..."

The young man in front of the computer nodded, and then took a deep breath. Because this special interface has only appeared for the first time so far, and there is a countdown circle on it. Obviously it will not stay forever. The next time Appeared, I don’t know when.

Finally, under the instruction of the team leader, the young man directly clicked the agree button. He was naturally very nervous, but besides him, there were dozens of agents and logistical support personnel here, and this place was known to be able to resist The administration headquarters where the nuclear bomb was dropped... Even if this computer could explode, it wouldn't hurt anyone.

But the moment the young man clicked to agree, he fell directly onto the table... quietly.

The account belonging to this young man was automatically activated at this moment, and this line of text appeared on the chat channel.

I...I really have to come in! Inside the game!

Such a strange scene immediately sent chills through everyone in the room...
