This is not mechanical ascension...

Chapter 18 No wonder the murderer likes to return to the scene

"Remember this place, this is the headquarters of our Team Seven." Yang Peng said. The elevator door opened. There were not a few people here. A rough estimate is that there were at least dozens of them.

Everyone worked in an orderly manner and greeted Yang Peng naturally when they saw him.

The Security Section of the City Guard Department has a total of twelve teams, each of which has no less than a hundred people from intelligence, logistics to field work.

Yang Peng is in Team 7, and Zhao Xiong is in Team 3. Both of them are strong contenders for the next chief of security, so they are at loggerheads with each other.

"Xiao Li has already told you, you should learn something from him first." Yang Peng pointed to an empty seat casually: "That's your work station. Normal working hours are from 7 am to 5 pm. You must be there in case of emergency."

"The salary is three thousand star coins per month."

Hearing this, Li Ming's face couldn't help but look a little strange, "Three thousand?"

"You are in the internship period, three thousand is not a small amount." Li Ning saw what Li Ming meant and sat down next to him: "I don't have much either."

After what happened just now, Li Ning did not treat Li Ming like a child. His current energy level was only 0.9, and Li Ming would be able to catch up with him soon.

Li Ming's mouth twitched but he didn't say anything.

After making simple arrangements for Li Ming, Yang Peng clapped his hands, diverted everyone's attention, and said in a deep voice: "Come and summarize the clues of the Red Street Head Smashing Case."

Red Street? Broken heads? Li Ming's heart was slightly moved. It was his case.

"Lao Dao, you tell me." Yang Peng gave up his seat, and the middle-aged man named Lao Dao nodded and walked forward:
"Based on the exact time of death, Wang Bo should have died before Ma Wu. There were many traces of action at the scene, and there were gravels on the ground, but no items that could indicate life were left behind."

"We retrieved the star network data between them and found that Wang Bo had sent a message to Ma Wu during the death period of both of them. The purpose was probably to lure him out."

"The person who did this was very thoughtful. He even learned Wang Bo's daily speaking habits and punctuation usage."

"Some witnesses who were on Red Street that night also said that they vaguely heard some noise coming from the alley. There was a woman named Lingzi who had close contact with Wang Bo, and he disappeared silently in front of her eyes."

Having said that, Lao Dao glanced at Li Ming, because what Wang Bo was mumbling before his death was about Li Ming.

Logically speaking, he should be the key suspect, but for well-known reasons, no one suspected that he was the perpetrator.

"Xiao Li, how's the investigation on the mechanically modified body going?" Yang Peng asked.

Li Ning stood up and said, "In the past month, there have been a total of 186 mechanically modified bodies entering Silver Gray Star, of which only 28 have armed prosthetic limbs."

"Of the remaining 16, 12 had already left before the crime occurred. Eight of them have alibis, and I am about to check on the remaining four."

"But these four are not F-class life forms..." He hesitated: "And..."

"Just tell me what you think!" Yang Peng frowned slightly.

"I feel like they don't meet the conditions for committing the crime. This should be done by other forces on Silver Ash Star."

Li Ming raised his eyebrows and said, "That's a good guess. I support you."

"That's what I was going to say..." Yang Peng's eyes flickered, and he stood up and said, "Last night, and early this morning, one person each from the Rose Society and the Wild Dog Gang died."

Everyone in the field looked at each other. Li Ming also became interested. Is there anyone else taking action?
"So these three gangs are causing trouble for each other?" Li Ning guessed.

"It's hard to say." Yang Peng did not make a judgment. "The scar-faced tiger thought it was not done by other gangs, but we have to investigate. Xiao Li, you go to the Rose Club tomorrow."

"Yes!" Li Ning agreed, and Yang Peng assigned tasks to each of them.

"Tsk, tsk... Li Ming, look... the head exploded like a watermelon..." Li Ning sighed. There were several photos of the scene on the virtual screen in front of him.

He gave it to Li Ming, wanting to see the discomfort on the newcomer's face, maybe he would vomit. Several old hands nearby heard it and cast subtle glances at him.

That's how they treated Li Ning back then, and as a result, he couldn't eat for three days.

"It's really tragic." Li Ming stared at it for a while and couldn't help but sigh. No wonder they say that criminal suspects will return to the crime scene to watch.

This feeling is really amazing.

Li Ning stared at Li Ming and found that this guy didn't feel uncomfortable at all, which made him feel bored. Especially when he heard some old hands next to him say something like "I haven't eaten for three days..." His face turned red.

This guy is so evil, is he born to do this job?
"Ahem...it's almost time to get off work. Remember not to be late tomorrow. You have to go on a field trip." Li Ning changed the subject and said, "You are lucky. Your first field trip is to the Rose Club. There are so many beauties there."

Li Ming asked about the energy levels of life.

It was only later that it was figured out that anything below 1G was a life form without the genetic seed integrated into it.

After the fusion, the energy level will basically exceed 1G, and the unit of measurement will be advanced, with F as the suffix. It is not until 100F that it is considered an E-level life form, and the unit of measurement will be changed to the suffix E.

The calculation formula is very complicated and is applicable across the stars. The difference between them is huge, 100F is equivalent to 1E.

Speed ​​and strength have their own special calculation formulas, and if one of them is achieved, the person can be recognized.

What is referred to here is the normal energy level itself, which does not include any other means. The evolutionary focus of many gene seeds is different.

When a gene seed that focuses on one aspect, such as strength or speed, is developed to the extreme, it may surpass the measurement standards of the current level, but not by much.

"This means that even for life forms at the same level, the difference in strength can be as much as a hundred times."

"My energy level should be less than 10F..." He estimated that due to the support of elementary close combat, his force-generating skills were pretty good.

At the beginning, he used almost no strength and hit 0.3G, which increased slightly to 0.6G.

The real energy level should be around 5 or 6F, but if the ability to control objects is added, it should double.

There was nothing to do afterwards. Li Ning helped him get familiar with the teams within Team 7, and then it was time to get off work.

He got off work, but Li Ning was not there yet. He was sorting out some documents, and there wasn't much, so Li Ning let him go first.

Li Ming went downstairs by himself and met some police officers along the way, who all cast vague glances at him.

Obviously, what happened in the training room that afternoon had already spread out. Zhao Xiong was severely embarrassed, and many people also had a preliminary impression of him -
He seems to be taciturn, but every word he says is deadly.

"Hey..." When I reached the door, a familiar figure jumped out. It was Yang Yu.

She changed her clothes, wearing tight jeans that outlined her slim figure, and a belly-baring top that revealed her fair waist, exuding youth.

"Why are you here?" Li Ming asked curiously.

"It's your first day at work, and grandpa asked me to pick you up." Yang Yu explained, looking Li Ming up and down, her eyes curved: "I didn't realize that you look quite handsome after dressing up."

Li Ming has now changed into a uniform, which is a perfect fit with blue and black stripes. He has a tall figure, straight shoulders and a slender waist.

In fact, it’s not just because of the clothes. Li Ming’s temperament has changed a lot these days, and it is even more obvious after changing clothes.

"I still need you to pick me up..." Li Ming was speechless and went home with Yang Yu. It was time to get off work and the skytrain was full.

Yang Yu chattered non-stop, sharing some interesting things or what clothes he bought. Li Ming remained silent, occasionally saying "hmm" in agreement.

The two of them stood there, attracting many envious glances. At such a young age, he was already a city guard, and he had such a beautiful girlfriend. He was definitely a winner in life.

Old Yang had already prepared the meal, and Li Ming ate with him. They chatted for a while. Old Yang looked at Li Ming's current appearance, feeling very pleased, and drank a few sips of wine.

"Not bad, not bad. After I die, I will have the face to face Brother Li..."

Old Yang and his predecessor’s grandfather were both the first generation of immigrants from Silver-Gray Star. Their generation supported each other a lot.

Amid Yang Yu's complaints, Li Ming helped Old Yang upstairs and cleaned up the kitchen before returning.

As soon as he walked out of the door, his heart suddenly skipped a beat and he couldn't help but look towards the darkness in front of the store.

It is now close to seven o'clock, the street lights are on, and a figure is vaguely visible in the shadows.
