After the live broadcast, Jack put away the money he had earned and strolled around the Qinghe district in satisfaction.
When he reached the security room, a woman holding a parasol happened to pass by. Her eyes were fixed on Jack’s figure, revealing a shy expression.
“Brother Jie, it’s really you. Don’t you know that ever since you came here, the security here has been much better? There are no more hooligans here to cause trouble,” the security guard, Cole, said excitedly.
Brother Jie was really awesome. He was practically his idol. Because it was close to the business district, the residents here were all young beauties, young women, and so on. They were dressed fashionably and had seductive figures.
It was also because of this that they often attracted some hooligans. Sometimes, they were also difficult to deal with. They often braced themselves and went forward. When the time was right, they would be beaten up, and they would apologize humbly just so they would be let off the hook.
If they provoked someone ruthlessly, losing a limb was also a long-term thing. Last month, his partner was sent to the hospital and was not even discharged yet.
However, ever since Brother Jie arrived, those usually tyrannical hooligans never came again. Occasionally, they would see them in other places, but it was surprising that they would even politely greet him.
In the past, this was something that he did not dare to imagine.
Seeing the warm Cole, Jack naturally understood in his heart. He nodded and smiled.
At this time, the woman had walked quite far away and would occasionally turn around to take a look.
Cole smiled and said, “Brother Jie, that woman in the past seems to be interested in you. She’s not bad-looking and has amazing curves. If you’re interested, you can get her for sure.”
“If I get rid of you!”
“Ah!” Cole was a little stunned. He quickly covered his chest and said, “Brother Jie, so you like this. Sigh, who asked you to be my idol? Come on! But you have to be gentle!”
He immediately turned into a little woman, and even his flower fingers came out.
Jack’s head was full of black lines. He kicked his butt and said, “Get lost. If I liked this, you would have lost your virginity long ago. Why wait until now? Let’s talk about business. How is it here today?”
“Reporting to Brother Jie, everything is normal.” Cole saluted and laughed. “But you don’t have to come here often. If there’s anything, I’ll give you a call.”
“Okay, I’ll leave this to you.”
“Okay, Brother Jie, I promise to complete the mission!”
After circling around, Jack returned to Dongsheng Aapartment. At this time, more than a dozen Twitter messages were sent to his phone.
Half of them were about Jenny. Some fans were still holding onto hope. Some fans thought that their goddess was dead and wanted to punish the murderer severely. The two sides started an intense word war.
One of the reports was about the Death Inquisitor being wanted by the police.
The police department was determined to capture the Death Inquisitor and bring him to justice. They wanted to uphold the laws of the country and uphold social justice.
Jack opened the comments section and browsed through it. A trace of a demonic smile appeared on his face.
“Arrest the Death Inquisitor? Are you bragging? How long has it been? You haven’t caught a single hair.”
“Isn’t it always like this now? I’m already used to it. What I say is better than what I sing. In the end, you will all only die in helplessness.”
“Haha! I’m dying of laughter. These policemen? Aren’t they afraid that the strong wind will flash their tongues?”
“In the case a few days ago, you also said that you wanted to catch the murderer. Four days have passed, and you have not found a single clue. If it wasn’t for the Death Inquisitor, even if you were to catch the murderer in the end, how many people would have died in this period of time?”
“But to be honest, this time, I heard that there was an awesome person who joined the police force. It seems to be ‘the drunkard killer.’ This person is rumored to be highly skilled and awesome.”
Drunkard Killer?
Jack glanced at the comments and then turned off his phone.
Opening the browser, Jack found his information on the Internet. His original name was Sandy.
Because of his addiction to alcohol, he often went to work drunk, which gave rise to his bad and infamous reputation. After hearing this, the higher-ups of the police force were extremely dissatisfied and gave him a one-year leave of absence.
These documents were all official explanations, and Jack certainly would not believe it. These were all superficial things that others wanted you to see, and the truth hidden in the depths of the incident, you would never be able to come into contact with it.
At this time, a post-bar called the escape room caught his attention.
Jack’s lips curved into a cold smile. This ID, “One mountain, one Di,” if he guessed correctly, was the drunkard killer.
There were many comments about him below, and one of them was: If you are trapped in a secret room with no doors and no windows, how can you escape?
It was a question raised by other netizens.
His answer was also creative and out of the ordinary.
The screen clearly showed that he first sent a disdainful emoji and then three exclamation marks.
“Why do you want to escape? After leaving this secret room, you just entered a bigger secret room. You will never be able to escape the control of others, and you will never be able to escape the trap that others have carefully designed. The world is arrogant. What you have in your heart is what is displayed. There is no need to be obsessed with everything in front of you. It is all an illusion.”
This drunkard was a little interesting. Jack turned off the computer.
“There’s Monica, and now there’s another drunkard. The Zero Major Crimes Squad is getting more and more interesting. Since you’re good at escaping from secret rooms, I’ll play with you slowly. Don’t let me down.” Jack’s lips curled, revealing a meaningful smile.
Night fell…
At this moment, the drunkard woke up from the sofa in a daze. A voice came from his ears.
“The search on Alam Street has been completed. There is no sign of the target for now.”
“The search on Coco Hill Street has been completed. There is no sign of the target for now.”
“The search on Nicosia Street has been completed. There is no sign of the target for now.”
…
The drunkard frowned and shouted, “Do you have any alcohol?”
Everyone looked at him when he shouted.
Ross looked at the drunkard with a gloomy face and said coldly, “This is a place to handle cases. If you want to drink, I advise you to go back to where you came from.”
The drunkard acted as if he did not hear him. He cursed, “What kind of lousy place is this? There’s not even any alcohol. What can we find within a five-kilometer radius? At the very least, we have to look for a radius of five to ten kilometers. Since the murderer can commit crimes for four years, he must be extremely familiar with the surrounding environment. I’m sure that you guys will not be able to find any information about him within a five-kilometer radius. Moreover, you guys have already proven it with your actions.”
Ross was speechless. Didn’t this mean that they were stupid? Although this guy didn’t seem to be reliable, his words still made some sense.
“Also, why is it that a stranger can ask out a big celebrity through only one contact? Don’t you guys have any doubts? The only thing that makes sense is that the murderer might have some information about the celebrity, such as videos, dating, privacy…Only under such circumstances can the celebrity listen to him. So, if we investigate the videos of Jenny’s recent private activities, we might be able to get some results.”
After the drunkard said that, he patted his head and said, “I’m so sleepy now. When I wake up again, I hope that there’s a bottle of Erguotou in front of me. It’s 56 degrees. Otherwise, all of you can go to hell!”
Ross directly ignored him.
“There’s still more than ten hours. Let’s work harder and find some clues about the murderer.”
“Damn, it’s so noisy,” the drunkard grumbled unhappily.
However, he had figured out the case in just a few words, which really impressed everyone.
…
At this time, Jack was standing at the edge of a small forest, staring coldly at a small bungalow not far away. There was only one lamp in the house, which was emitting a reddish light.
It was a little strange in the sparsely populated countryside.
