The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 219 Secret Investigation
"Elder Xuanwu."

Gao Yang thought that the whole group was gathering, but he didn't expect that he was the only one.

"Qiying, you have been promoted and are on the same level as me. Just call me Xuanwu." Xuanwu smiled, which was obviously a polite comment.

"I dare not." Gao Yang said modestly, but his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant: "Elder Xuanwu, do you have a mission?"

"Yes, you can talk on the phone, but since you have to come here anyway, it's better to talk in person."

Gao Yang nodded: "You say."

Xuanwu's face darkened: "An hour ago, the Suzaku branch discovered that the morgue had been stolen."

"What?" Gao Yang did not hide his surprise.

Xuanwu frowned slightly: "The Suzaku branch stores the corpses of awakened people, including the corpses of some beasts. They are mainly used for research. Now some of the corpses have been stolen."

Xuanwu paused for a moment, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes: "Among them are people from our 4th and 5th groups."

When Gao Yang heard this, he also felt a burst of unknown anger: They had only been sacrificed for less than three days, and their bodies were about to be stolen before they were cold.

"Why steal the body?" Gao Yang didn't understand: "What's the use of the body?"

"I'm also very confused about this. As long as the body is more than 24 hours old, it can't be used for other purposes except for autopsy and research. Therefore, the morgue has never been stolen before."

Xuanwu sighed: "Because of this, the morgue is not tightly guarded, which allows thieves to succeed."

"Is it possible?" Gao Yang lowered his voice unconsciously: "One of our own did it?"

"It's possible." Xuanwu said: "But I sent someone to verify that at the time of the crime, almost all members of the elite and above had sufficient alibi. I don't think people below the elite are capable of doing this. "

Gao Yang was thoughtful.

"President Qilin asked you to investigate this matter," Xuanwu said.

"Am I alone?" Gao Yang asked.

"Yes, he doesn't want this matter to become public knowledge, so he wants you to investigate it privately." Xuanwu looked directly into Gao Yang's eyes, trying to see something: "The president values ​​you very much."

"I'm sincere and frightened." Gao Yang nodded slightly and naturally avoided Xuanwu's scrutiny.

Although Gao Yang was recruited by Xuanwu, he is still considered Xuanwu's subordinate.

But Gao Yang always felt that Xuanwu didn't fully trust him yet. After this Fudong incident, he became even more wary of him.

But that's totally understandable.

As soon as Gao Yang came over, he discovered the existence of the Cang Mu Cult, and then mistakenly entered the Fu Cave, causing Xuanwu to lose more than half of his subordinates.

But Gao Yang himself found out the inner ghost, got two pieces of rune circuits, made great achievements, was appreciated by Qilin, and half-stepped into the core of the union.

Xuanwu's attitude towards Gao Yang must be complicated and subtle.

"Anyway, you investigate this matter secretly and report any news to me or the president at any time." Xuanwu said.

"Yes." Gao Yang nodded and quickly asked, "Will you start immediately?"

"Immediately, you go to the morgue of the Suzaku branch." Xuanwu said.

"clear."

Gao Yang bowed slightly, turned and left, making himself look calm, sophisticated and professional.

It wasn't until he closed the door to the conference room that he breathed out secretly and grinned: He was indeed a worker, and he was destined to work overtime wherever he went.

The Zhuque branch is located in the remote Beiyong District. The distance is quite long and there is no fast track to the headquarters.

Gao Yang first took the capsule train in the underground tunnel of the Xuanwu Building and went to the Baihu branch. He stored his diary in the safe in room 5007, then left the Baihu Building, took a taxi and drove to Beiyong District.

At three o'clock in the morning, Gao Yang arrived at his destination.

This is a suburb with few residents. There is a cluster of white buildings at the foot of a low hillside. The outermost part is surrounded by cement walls and iron mesh. Inside, there are rows of low buildings similar to factories. There are large green belts between the buildings.

Gao Yang took a closer look and saw a huge landscape stone standing next to the simple main entrance, with five words engraved on it:
——Begui Funeral Home.Gao Yang felt complicated for a moment. Although he had known that he was going to the morgue to investigate, he didn't expect that the Zhuque branch was really a funeral parlor.

In the guard room, a young guard was sleeping on a lazy chair with his legs crossed and taking a nap.

"Hello." Gao Yang knocked on the window.

The guard woke up reluctantly: "Is something wrong?"

"I'm looking for Miss Xia." Xia Li works in a funeral parlor and is from the Qilin Union. Xuanwu asked Gao Yang to contact her directly.

"Director Xia." The guard woke up from his drowsiness and took out the personnel registration book: "Here, register."

Gao Yang casually wrote his name and address, and the guard let him in without even looking at it.

Gao Yang walked through a clean open space and came to the lobby of a building. Then he turned left, walked through the corridor connecting the buildings, and came to a low townhouse on the left.

Gao Yang walked up to the second floor as instructed and saw the morgue.

The structure of the second floor is similar to the inpatient department of a hospital, with a corridor leading to the end and rooms on the left and right.

There is a strong automatic iron gate installed in front of the corridor, and a sign is hung on the iron gate: No one is allowed to enter.

There is a mobile phone number next to it, contact person: Miss Xia.

"Dong dong dong."

Gao Yang knocked on the iron door first, and the sound echoed in the quiet and cold corridor.

No one responded.

Gao Yang picked up the phone and dialed Miss Xia's number.

"Ah uh - wow -"

A few seconds later, the sound of zombies came from the end of the corridor.

Gao Yang was startled at first, then realized immediately that this was the ringtone of his cell phone.

After a while, a figure appeared in the corridor, walking slowly towards Gao Yang.

"Da da da."

A pair of small red heels stepped on the smooth and hard floor. The sensor lights in the corridor lit up one after another. Gao Yang gradually saw Director Xia clearly.

She wore a spacious white coat, a light blue work shirt and straight pants underneath, with a work badge hanging on her chest. Her slender figure appeared even slender in the loose and loose clothes.

Brown wool curls, fluffy air bangs, bright brown eyes, the corners of the eyes and mouth slightly pulled down, a delicate world-weary face.

The girl put her hands in the bags of her white coat and walked behind the iron gate.

She squinted her eyes slightly and looked at Gao Yang through the crack in the iron door.

Two seconds later, she asked in a lazy voice: "Are you Seven...Yawn...Shadow?"

Halfway through his words, he yawned sleepily, and the professional and high-level feeling he had created before was instantly gone.

Gao Yang couldn't help but smile and said: "I am Qiying, and you are Miss Xia?"

"It's me, just call me Xia Li."

The girl stretched out her right hand and pressed the switch on the wall, and the iron door slowly opened to one side.

Gao Yang walked into the iron gate and politely stretched out his hand: "Hello."

Xia Li was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hand with a half-smile and held Gao Yang's hand: "Hello."

Gao Yang was shocked: Damn!It's the boss!
