latent body

Chapter 90 Yongxing Food Factory

It broke free from Fang Jiaquan's mouth recklessly, like an earthworm whose body was torn apart by a natural enemy, twisted crazily and fled desperately, jumped back quickly in less than a second, and quickly disappeared deep in the gap at the back of the neck along the way it came from.

The tip of the bitten off tentacle was still in Fang Jiaquan's mouth.

This sticky special substance exudes blood and deliciousness.Fang Jialiang is familiar with both flavors.

He began to chew slowly.

Although he has eaten the same food several times, he still feels a kind of novelty and anticipation that cannot be expressed in words.

In the dead silence and twilight, Fang Jiaquan smiled.

……

Ling Zihan stood at the door of "Yongxing Food Processing Factory", looking at the ceramic signboard hanging on the side of the porch for a long time.

Plants are scarce in the underground world, and leafy perennial trees are even rarer.Most of the things like business signs are made of ceramics.After all, there is no shortage of clay here, and the ceramic products fired with a certain proportion of additives are very hard and durable.

The package of the canned meat that Le Yuqin gave had the words "Yongxing Food Factory" written on it, and the eye-catching red and blue trademark was also "Yongxing".

The address was given by Yang Yan.He had been to this place before, but searched and tested but found nothing.Later, he received an order from his superiors to lead the team back on the grounds that "it is strictly forbidden to harass the citizens in the name of investigation and disrupt the normal social order of Floating Cloud City."

According to Yang Yan, this is a complaint from someone.

However, the superior's attitude made him realize that there was something wrong with it-the police station is a law enforcement department, even if there are occasional strong or even violations in the investigation process, it is inevitable .As long as the case is solved, hello, hello, hello everyone.

Obstruction from superiors made Yang Yan even more suspicious of Yongxing Food Factory.It's just that due to his status, he had to hold his nose and obediently obey Shang's wishes.

Standing in the dark for a long time doesn't feel good.Ling Zihan looked around, shifted his gaze to the inside of the open door of the food factory, and walked in.

As soon as he crossed the threshold, a young man in overalls on the opposite side pointed at him and asked rudely, "Hey, what do you do?"

"I'm looking for your boss." Ling Zihan calmed down, spoke clearly, and spoke smoothly... This was the reason he had already thought of to deal with.

The young man is obviously not the kind of small character who is easy to be fooled. He looked at Ling Zihan with vigilant eyes: "Why are you looking for our boss?"

"Order." Ling Zihan replied fluently: "I want to buy canned food."

"How much do you want to buy?" The other party didn't intend to let him in at all, and pointed to the corner of the side of the room: "There are cans over there. Look at what you want, and I'll bill you now."

Following the direction he pointed, Ling Zihan turned his head and saw a dozen boxes of canned food piled up in the corner. The outer packaging was exactly the same as the canned food given by Le Yuqin. They were all red and blue labels, with the beautiful italic "Yongxing" in the middle. Two words.

He turned his head, took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed one to the young man, and said with a smile, "There are only a dozen cans in a box, which is really too little."

Cigarettes are a good thing, and there is no such thing as "will you smoke" in the underground world.Even people who have never had the experience of actively smoking, as long as they ignite it, the smoke is forcibly inhaled into the lungs, and the artificial nerve controlled by the chip will control the mechanical part to adjust the breathing rhythm, without causing choking smoke and stimulating the nicotine entering the body feel.

An ordinary cigarette can easily bring the relationship between each other closer, especially men.

According to the point of view of the old times: In the past, disputes between men were mostly resolved by scolding or fisting.Later, the economic conditions improved, and many people bought small cars, which inevitably bumped on the road.In this situation, the driver got out of the car to check, as long as he took the initiative to hand out a cigarette to the other party, the atmosphere would become very harmonious.Don't quarrel, be kind, check whether each other's car is seriously injured, and then each take out their mobile phones to report insurance.

The cigarette Ling Zihan is sending out now has the same effect.

The attitude of the young man was much better than before, not so fierce, and even a smile appeared in his eyes.

"How much do you want to buy?" He took out his lighter and lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and asked while puffing out the smoke.

"Five hundred boxes." Ling Zihan replied with a smile.

"So much?" The young man was stunned for a moment, then he asked tentatively, "You open your own shop?"

In his concept, only small shop owners who set up shop will buy in large quantities.

Ling Zihan shook his head with a smile, and then explained: "Bought for a friend. He is taking a hunting team out next week. The team will travel a long distance. Food and drink must be prepared, otherwise it will be difficult to maintain on the road."

As he spoke, Ling Zihan emphasized his tone: "I mean you have five hundred boxes of canned food of every flavor here."

The young man gasped subconsciously and let out a "hiss".

"Five hundred boxes of each kind?" He had doubts about what Ling Zihan said: "Brother, you didn't lie to me deliberately by talking nonsense, did you?"

These days, there are many people who come to make troubles.Official police, inspections, food security inspections, various non-governmental gangs, underworld forces, lunatics, madmen... They use various signs and guises, and they have been in contact more often, and everyone knows how to deal with them.

Ling Zihan smiled without saying a word. He took out a large money bag from his backpack and untied the tether in front of the young man. It was filled with shiny gold coins.

Seeing the money, the young man no longer had any doubts -- none of those bastards who deliberately came to find trouble would bring so much money.

In other words, they were a bunch of damn poor ghosts.

He took Ling Zihan into the manager's office very attentively, introduced both parties, then turned and left, closing the door carefully.

Looking at the middle-aged man sitting opposite, Ling Zihan asked with a smile, "Are you Chen Xubin?"

This person is exactly the same as the photo provided by Yang Yan.Appears to be in his forties, and looks very capable. Although he is not tall, his eyes reveal the shrewdness of a businessman.The hair is very thick, and the roots of the hair are faintly shining with metallic luster.This means he has undergone craniotomy.Just like Zhong Jun, the owner of the tavern in Yazi Town, a micro-monitor was installed on the top of the broken skull.

Chen Xubin was a little surprised that such a straightforward question bypassed him. He quickly concealed his emotions and smiled politely: "I don't seem to have seen you before."

Ling Zihan looked around, and when his eyes returned to Chen Xubin, he put away his smile and asked seriously, "Boss Chen, is it convenient for you to talk here?"

"What do you mean?" Although the attitude of the other party made the second monk Chen Xubin puzzled, he did not let down his vigilance at all, secretly reached into the half-open drawer with his right hand to find the pistol, and asked calmly: "Aren't you here?" Do you buy canned food?"

"I'm here instead of Le Yuqin." Ling Zihan kept swearing without surprise, his tone was flat, and he carefully captured every change on the other's face.

This name instantly aroused Chen Xubin's long-hidden intense emotions.He subconsciously clenched the handle of the gun in the drawer, and then slowly released it.His gaze became a little wandering, the corners of his eyes twitched a few times, his lips visibly trembled, and then he closed them tightly, clenching his teeth hard in the depths of Ling Zihan's mouth where Ling Zihan's eyes could not reach.

"I don't know what you're talking about." After a while, Chen Xubin opened his mouth and said bluntly and indifferently: "I'm running a business by myself. If you didn't say that I want to buy canned food, I wouldn't come out to see you."

"Didn't you always like Le Yuqin?" Ling Zihan turned a deaf ear to these words, showing a gentle smile on his face.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?" Chen Xubin had already adjusted his emotions. Although he was shocked, he was not surprised.In fact, he has "seen" similar scenes countless times in his sleep or after drinking.

Ling Zihan still smiled: "It seems that I found the right person."

Sometimes crime investigations are not as complicated as imagined, especially in this special age.

There are too many missing persons in Floating Cloud City.Sporadic cases happen every few days, and the accumulated number is large. It is almost impossible to find people in this kind of cases. After a long time of hard work, people will feel tired. After a long time, people will feel tired. The subconscious mind will want to escape, put it on the shelf, and never leave it.

This is how a lot of backlogs are created.

Yang Yan can be regarded as a more responsible figure among the police.He once wanted to conduct an in-depth and comprehensive inspection of Yongxing Food Factory.However, Chen Xubin's reaction and actions were very quick. He sent a large sum of money to Yang Yan's boss, and a relationship developed between the two.Chen Xubin kept saying, "Some people saw that my business was doing well, and wanted to deal with me, deliberately saying that my product quality was problematic."

For this reason, Yang Yan received an order from his superiors to "stop the investigation".

The reason is very simple, no matter whether there is a problem with the product quality or whether someone really wants to deal with Chen Xubin, it means that if you continue to investigate, you will cut off a special source of income other than salary.

It is very common to use power to suppress people and use power for personal gain. Officials play it smoothly without leaving any traces.

Yang Yan couldn't move Chen Xubin at all.Even if this guy has a lot of suspicion.

In fact, he had long thought of directly arresting people, extorting a confession by torture, and prying Chen Xubin's mouth open.

But in that case, Yang Yan's official career would come to an end.The irritated boss would at least suspend him for review and then fire him; at worst, he would find a logical reason to kill him directly.

Blocking people's money is like killing their parents. This saying has been passed down for thousands of years.

Ling Zihan is different.

He has the status of a legion member similar to a policeman, but not a police system.

More importantly, Le Yuqin posted tasks on the Legion Network, which was beyond the jurisdiction of the Floating Cloud City police system.

"What do you want to do?" Chen Xubin's face was full of vigilance, and a bad premonition suddenly surged in his heart.

He didn't see Ling Zihan's movements clearly at all, and the scene in his eyes became blurred for an instant. After a while, he regained his clarity. He was horrified to see that Ling Zihan changed his sitting posture, and there was an extra gun in his hand, the black and thick muzzle was facing Own.

"You can't beat me."

"You are just a D-level adaptor."

"Just move a little bit, and I'll shoot you in the head right away. If you don't believe me, you can try it."

"So from now on, you'd better sit there honestly and answer whatever I ask you."

"Also, take your hands out of the drawer and hold them up. I know you hid a gun in the drawer."

Chen Xubin's eyes widened suddenly, and the shock and astonishment in his heart were simply indescribable.For a few seconds, he even suspected that Ling Zihan was a fully intelligent robot, otherwise how could he know the gun hidden in the drawer.

In fact, Ling Zihan guessed.

This kind of thing seems magical on the surface, but as long as there are logical reasons, rich and experienced experience, and a certain degree of insinuation, it is not difficult to do.

Seeing Chen Xubin, who was full of shock and anger, slowly raised his hands, Ling Zihan couldn't help feeling a surge of joy in his heart.

In fact, before he came here today, he never thought that there would be such a big harvest.

Chen Xubin was indeed the most important suspect, but it was really unexpected that he made such an action and reaction with just one sentence.

Even if the case of Le Yuqin's husband's disappearance was not directly related to him, at least some information could be gleaned from him.

The feeling of being pointed at by a gun is not very good. Fear, shock, rage... All kinds of complicated emotions collided wildly in Chen Xubin's mind, and most of them were remorse.

Why should I let him in?

After being careful for so long, why did something go wrong at this time?
Also, why didn't I shoot and kill people first?
As long as he is shot dead, there will be no such embarrassing scene now.

"Are you a policeman?" Chen Xubin glared at Ling Zihan and growled loudly.

Yep, growling, he unleashes himself at full volume.

Ling Zihan's reaction was very quick. Without even thinking about it, he got up suddenly, stepped on the desk with a big stride, condescendingly aimed at Chen Xubin's waist and pulled the trigger.Large-caliber bullets spun into the target's body, pierced the skin and muscles, and exploded under the obstruction of mechanical parts. Numerous metal debris and explosive force tore Chen Xubin's body on the spot, and his mechanical spine lost its stability and support functions. , the whole person lay crookedly on the high-back chair, screaming like a pig being slaughtered.

There were hurried footsteps behind him, mixed with angry curses.

The reason why Ling Zihan shot was because this was not his home field.Especially when he came in from the outside, he saw several workers busy in the workshop.These people may have nothing to do with Chen Xubin's case, but they are hired, and the boss must come in to check if something happens.

The young man rushed to the front, his relationship with Chen Xubin could be seen just by his angry roar: "Third Uncle, what's wrong with you?"

Looking at the door being pushed open from the outside, Ling Zihan turned around calmly on the desk, aimed directly at the opponent's lower body and pulled the trigger again.

The cylindrical spring body is an extremely sensitive part.Although not fatal, any form of heavy blow can instantly incapacitate the opponent.
