Stargate Chapter 2: Red Shadow


  Opportunities need to be created by themselves.

   The opportunity Li Hao needs, he also needs to create it himself.

   Soon, Li Hao compiled a file in front of him, got up, and Li Hao walked towards the small office in the office area.

  "咚咚咚!"

   Li Hao knocked on the office door.

   came the voice of the head of the confidential room: "Come in!"

  ……

   Li Hao opened the office door.

   "Director!"

   "Li Hao!"

  Wang Jie, who was middle-aged, couldn't help smiling when he saw Li Hao.

   This is a good boy who knows politeness and is willing to work. After all, he has received higher education in Yincheng Ancient Academy. Although he dropped out of school early, he was not expelled, but dropped out of school by himself. He was still very concerned.

   Li Hao also smiled, and quickly said: "Mr., I have something to report."

   "Sit down!"

   Wang Jie greeted, the task of the confidential room is not too onerous. As for things, there are no major issues. Major events are usually carried out by the law enforcement team in front. Generally speaking, the confidential room is still very stable.

  For Li Hao to report on work, Wang Jie wondered, is this kid wanting to be a familiar face and let him promote him?

  But the time was too short, this guy dropped out of school again, and only turned for half a year. It is impossible to promote him in a short time.

   was thinking, Li Hao's expression in front of him became serious, and his voice seemed a little dull: "Mr. Chief, I am in the confidential room. I am mainly responsible for the filing of some suspicious and unsolved cases. I entered the confidential room for one year. Some files of the last ten years have been reorganized and reclassified..."

  Wang Jie smiled instantly and nodded: "I know that high-achieving students are high-achieving students! The files were still a bit messy, and some old files were about to be eaten by insects. I have also reorganized them, but they are often needed. I can’t find it. As soon as you come, you can find any case you want to find right away. You have merit in this..."

   Li Hao shook his head quickly: "Mr. Chief, I'm not here to show off and boast."

   isn't it?

  Wang Jie laughed, is it possible to report something?

   He didn't say anything, nodded and motioned for Li Hao to continue.

   Li Hao took out the document in front of him and handed it to Wang Jie. He opened one. Although he was young, his voice was calm: "In 1720, on September 16, a self-immolation case occurred in Yincheng Anju Community. Someone witnessed the victim set himself ablaze in public, sparks suddenly appeared inside his body, burning the victim to death."

  Wang Jie also looked at the file in his hand at this moment, and then looked at Li Hao.

   The case was closed ten years ago, and it was closed. It was not a murder, but an accident. What did this kid do when he brought up the case that was closed ten years ago?

   Li Hao continued: "On September 22, 1723, at the Yincheng Commercial Center, a salesperson suddenly caught fire and burned his whole body quickly, and was burned to death in public."

   Wang Jie nodded, "I know this. I filed it at the beginning, and I went to the scene in person. It was an accident. At that time, the commercial center was caused by excessive static electricity."

   Li Hao did not argue, and continued reading: "In 1725, on August 18, at the Yincheng Minsheng Hotel, a guest stayed in the hotel. One day later, he was found to have died in the hotel. He also set himself on fire. Die."

   There is a five-year interval from the first self-immolation, and two years from the second.

   Three self-immolation cases occurred in five years, but they were all accidents. Yincheng has to deal with many cases every day. The self-immolation cases caused by three accidents in five years are really not a major event, and few people care about it.

   Unless it happens, all three cases were handled by one person, and maybe it can cause some attention.

   There are countless files in the confidential room, and Wang Jie doesn't usually care about it. After listening to a few sentences at this moment, he feels vaguely, frowning and looking at Li Hao.

   Li Hao continued: "On February 16, Yincheng Dongfang Street, another person died of self-immolation. The reason was that a ball lightning appeared nearby. It was suspected that it was caused by a ball lightning, which caused the human body to self-immolate. The self-immolation case, one and a half years!"

   Wang Jie's complexion changed slightly. From three to two years, two to one and a half years, another self-immolation case occurred in Yincheng!

  "In 1728, on August 12, the Yincheng Suburban Inspection Department reported that a person was missing in the territory. Afterwards, a burned bone was found by the river. It was suspected to be caused by a thunder and lightning strike, and the case was unexpectedly closed."

   is another year and a half!

   This was reported by a subordinate organization. The confidential room only organizes the files and does not participate in the handling of the case. Moreover, the case caused by this accident has been closed below, and the above will not be rushed to overthrow it.

  Wang Jie's face became more and more serious. He really didn't care. There were too many files in the confidential room, and many old files were destroyed every year.

  "Another year and a half..."

  Wang Jie didn’t look through the files in his hands, but looked at Li Hao, and said in a deep voice, “One time for three years, one time for two years, two years and a half apart, did it happen again in August and September 1729? Self-immolation?"

   1729, which is last year.

  Wang Jie thought about it, did it happen last year?

   Is the time interval one year?

  If there is, it means that within ten years, there have been six cases of self-immolation in Yincheng!

   It’s really not too much to spread out evenly. Once every two years, Silver City is very large. It is not handled by one branch, but scattered. One branch may be received together in ten years. Who cares?

   Li Hao nodded: "It happened again in 1729, and it was in the ancient courtyard of Yincheng, and... the person involved was my classmate, the bedroom next door! I left the ancient courtyard of Yincheng, and part of the reason was related to this. At that time, I had witnessed everything and felt fear and fear of the ancient courtyard. In addition, my classmate’s self-immolation was weird, so I wanted to know why on earth he would self-immolate!"

   Li Hao’s face was solemn: "So I came to the Inspection Department, part of the reason is that outsiders can’t access these files, I can! I looked through the self-immolation cases in the past ten years, and I found that... maybe this It's no accident!"

  Wang Jie quickly flipped through the files in his hand, after looking for a while, looked at Li Hao, and said in a deep voice: "Tell me what you think."

   "In ten years, there have been six cases in total. No, strictly speaking, it is nine years. No such case has been received this year."

   Li Hao said sternly: "Mr., because of my classmates, I take it seriously. It’s already July. If it is said that the self-immolation case is not a coincidence, then it has been almost a year since the last self-immolation case. Now! This self-immolation time has been shortening time and time again. If it is not an accident, it is likely that similar cases will occur recently."

   "Isn't it an accident?"

  Wang Jie looked through the files over and over again. He was also a veteran inspector. Later, he was a little older and was transferred to the confidential room.

   If Li Hao doesn't sort out and integrate several cases together, I'm afraid no one will really care.

   However, when the six self-immolation cases were integrated, anyone could vaguely notice something wrong.

  Wang Jie sighed slightly: "From the current situation alone, there is no way to be sure that this is premeditated, but...too many coincidences, not necessarily coincidences!"

  Wang Jie is still very keen, and immediately said: "I will communicate with other departments, especially the law enforcement team, on this matter. The confidential room is not directly involved in solving the case, but self-immolations have occurred one after another. This may require some attention. , If it happens again recently..."

   Speaking of this, Wang Jie's expression slightly changed: "That means that your judgment is correct, and it may not be as simple as an accident!"

   He looked at Li Hao, his serious face suddenly relaxed, and smiled: "Of course, there is no need to be too nervous! Even if it is a real murder, there are even worse than this, but Li Hao, you... Well done!"

   Wang Jie’s seriousness only lasted for a while.

   Don’t say it’s not certain, even if it’s really a murder, it’s not a big deal. He has seen too much and listened too much. Six people died in ten years, but it’s really nothing.

   He was even more pleased that Li Hao was persistent and responsible for the case. Of course, he also understood some of the reasons why Li Hao had to drop out of school.

   classmate?

  Good friend!

   Otherwise, Li Hao would not have to drop out.

  ……

Across from   , Li Hao didn't say much.

   homicide?

  If it is really murderous, why should he drop out of school, why should he escape from the ancient courtyard of Yincheng.

   Witnessing all that with my own eyes, it was a simple murder, but better.

  What the **** is that red blood shadow?

  self-immolation?

   No, it was burned to death by the blood shadow, but at that time, like myself, the other students who saw their classmates set themselves on fire, no one saw the blood shadow!

   Did they lie?

   No, it’s not necessary.

   Li Hao knew that it was true that only he saw it, and the others didn't see the blood shadow at all, or in other words, they couldn't see it.

   Moreover, he has felt it again recently, and even vaguely saw the blood shadow last night.

   Maybe...not one!

  "It’s fine if no one pays attention. Once the inspection department notices it, it is determined that it is not an accident. If the inspection department cannot handle it, it will definitely be reported to the night watcher."

  If no one cares, then these cases will only be treated as accidental closures, and the files will only be left in the confidential room.

   But if it is paid attention to, the Inspection Department is still quite responsible.

   "Night Watcher!"

   Li Hao thought silently again in his heart. Opposite, Wang Jie stood up and said: "Then I will go to the law enforcement team to discuss it. You may need Li Hao to connect with you and provide some help. After all, this case was collected by you..."

   Li Hao nodded hurriedly, slightly relieved in his heart.

   Very good, I heard what I wanted to hear.

  He did all this to participate, not directly, but to participate as an accidental discoverer. In this way, if the night watcher intervenes, then Li Hao is likely to come into contact with the night watcher in the future.

   Of course, contact does not mean that you can join, even if you can join... Li Hao may not dare to join!

   Over the past year, he has seen too many files.

  Some things ~IndoMTL.com~ will be reflected in the lines, such as seeing the red shadow, it seems that you can not see it alone. Li Hao has consulted some data files, and Yincheng has such records.

   However, those people, either dead or missing, are not spared!

   Li Hao didn't say this. There was a great danger in it. He didn't even dare to tell anyone that he could see the red shadow. Even the night watcher might not be reliable.

   "No matter what...you must go through some normal channels to get in touch with this mysterious power!"

   Li Hao took a deep breath and exited the office.

   is not only for investigating the truth, but the key is to be responsible for my own life.

  All those who can see the red shadow are dead. As for whether anyone else can see it, Li Hao doesn't know, but he knows that everything exposed is dead, which is very unusual.

   "My little life can't be lost easily. I left the Yincheng Ancient Courtyard and came to the Inspection Department, not to escape."

   Walking out of the office door, Li Hao sighed slightly, showing a bright smile.

   The best result is that the night watcher can solve this problem. If he can get some unexpected gains, it is best. As a civilian, if he can join the night watcher, then Li Hao also hopes to join the night watcher's civilian organization. .

   As for law enforcement agencies, Li Hao didn't think he was competent, and it was also very dangerous. When I went to the teacher's place for dinner a few days ago, Li Hao gave a sidekick, the night watchman...the casualties are not small!

   "Let's take one step and see one step!"

   Li Hao watched Wang Jie leave in a hurry, smiled, and finally took the first step.

  "Red Shadow..."

   thought in my heart, what is that thing?

   And I can see, what's the reason?
