Trickster Hunter.

Chapter 395 The Death Contact Person
"Forget it, forget it, let's just lock him up for now." Yang Qi said helplessly, "Sun Hang, when you have time, contact Mr. Pei and ask him how he plans to deal with Yao Yu... In addition, there is a temporary mission that requires you, Sun Hang."

"Really? I just came back and you want to treat me like a beast of burden again?" Sun Hang complained, "Director Yang, you were a street lamp pendant in your previous life, right?"

"I can't help it. Tianfu City is short of manpower right now, and this mission is somewhat dangerous. If we send people from the field department, there might be casualties. After thinking about it, you are the safest choice..."

Before Yang Qi finished her words, Wang Xiyi interrupted her: "If Sun Hang doesn't go, I will go! It just so happens that I have been staying in the institute for a long time, and I am almost going crazy! Let Sun Hang stay and be responsible for security work, and I will take his place to carry out this task, isn't it just right?"

"Well...it's okay." Yang Qi said after thinking about it.

"What is the mission content?"

"It's related to the deceased contact person." Yang Qi said, "The contact person's name is Qiao Liu, female, 31 years old, unmarried, a native of Tianfu City, and the owner of the 'Qingzhu Bar' in the east of Tianfu City. Both of her parents have passed away, and she has no close relatives and friends. Her only social relationship is with the employees and guests in the bar. This person has no criminal record and pays taxes and social insurance on time every month..."

"It sounds like he is a role model of federal citizens," Wang Xiyi commented.

"If Yao Yu hadn't confessed, no one would have thought that Qiao Liu was a member of a cult. Her mobile phone and personal computer search and browsing history are all clean. I mean clean in terms of content, not clean in terms of deletion. This is completely consistent with the personality of a 30-year-old single middle-class woman... We can't even find out when she joined the cult."

"By the way, does this cult have a name?" Ye Xuan asked, with her arms folded across her chest, glancing at Yao Yu who was still sitting inside through the one-way glass.

"No, even Yao Yu doesn't know the real name of the organization." Yang Qi said, "He told us that 'the organization' is the organization. However, the organization's internal file number is temporarily designated as A11."

"What does A11 mean?" Sun Hang asked.

"A refers to the degree of danger, and 11 means this organization is the eleventh A-level cult we have discovered." Song Yarong explained for Yang Qi, "The highest level of danger is S, and the lowest is D. The cult that you wiped out earlier that raised Tai Sui was numbered C35."

"You haven't investigated this organization thoroughly yet? And you directly classified it as A-level?" Sun Hang was a little surprised.

"The weight of Wen Ya and Yao Yu is enough to raise the danger level of this organization to Class A," said Yang Qi.

"Are there any S-level cult organizations?"

"Not yet, but before the fall of the United States, there was a large-scale cult organization on the other side of the ocean that could even directly compete with the official army of the United States. The name of that organization was 'Tongzhouhui', and it was recognized as the only S-level cult organization that has appeared in the history of human civilization. It's just that now we usually call it by its name instead of using this coding method."

"Hey, hey, we've strayed off topic." Wang Xiyi said, "Let's continue. What did you find out about this woman named Qiao Liu?"

"Qiao Liu grew up in Tianfu City and has never left the city. Her mother died of illness when she was 12 years old. Her father, an accountant, died in a car accident when she was 21 years old, leaving her a considerable inheritance and compensation. The following year, she graduated from the Department of Financial Management of Tianfu University and used the money to buy a bankrupt restaurant in the east of the city and transformed it into the current 'Qingzhu Bar'," said Yang Qi.

"She has never even left Tianfu City, so how did she get in touch with the A11 organization?" Wang Xiyi wondered.

"Given the scale of A11, I'm afraid they have people all over the federation... This is not surprising." Ye Xuan shook her head. "Does this Qiao Liu have any emotional experience?"

"No, her life is as quiet as a stagnant pool of water. She never had any love affairs during her school days. She was a kind of invisible person with little sense of existence in the class. The only characteristic she had was probably that her grades were pretty good, and she was admitted to Tianfu University, which is ranked third in Tianfu City. After she started running the bar, she attracted many suitors because of her good looks and strong financial strength, but according to the descriptions of the regular customers of Qingzhu Bar, these suitors were all rejected by the boss without exception. Qiao Liu has never shown any intimate relationship with any member of the opposite sex. These customers even suspected that Qiao Liu might be a lesbian."

"What about that woman? Are there any women who are close to her?" Wang Xiyi asked, "Maybe she is really a lesbian."

"No," Yang Qi said. "In fact, it has nothing to do with gender. According to the survey report, she rarely communicates with others unnecessarily. The bartender at Qingzhu Bar said that the boss often sits in the window seat of the bar and stares at the large fish tank embedded in the French window."

"To be honest, I've read all the information related to Qiao Liu," Song Yarong said. "Apart from Yao Yu's unilateral testimony and Qiao Liu's death, there is no information that can prove that she has any connection with the cult."

"After all this talk, what is the mission?" Wang Xiyi asked impatiently, "You can't ask me to investigate the case of Qiao Liu's death, right?"

"The Public Security Bureau is investigating this case. You need to do something else." Yang Qi said, "Half an hour later, the Public Security Bureau told me that they found Qiao Liu's 'abnormal whereabouts' in the surveillance videos of some sections of the road."

"Oh? Unusual whereabouts?" Wang Xiyi raised her eyebrows.

"The surveillance video shows that a month ago, Qiao Liu drove her own car and left Tianfu City."

"Where did she go?"

"She took Highway 102, which only leads to one place," Yang Qi said, "Jinlu County, located in the border area west of Tianfu City."

"What is she doing in Jinlu County?" Ye Xuan asked immediately. "Although there was no city-wide curfew a month ago, ordinary people still needed to submit an application form if they wanted to leave Tianfu City... Moreover, if I remember correctly, at that time, Jinlu County was too close to the occupied area, so the whole city had been evacuated... It should have been an empty city."

"The Public Security Bureau immediately contacted the traffic management department, but they could not find Qiao Liu's application form to leave the city. After checking the license plate number, they found another application form. The applicant was Xu Li, a native of Jinlu County. The reason for the application was to return to Jinlu County to pick up some important documents that were left at home."

"Is this Xu Li the real person?" Ye Xuan asked immediately, "Did Xu Li drive Qiao Liu's car to Jinlu County, or is this Xu Li just another fake identity of Qiao Liu?"

"From the photos on the ID, these are two people," Yang Qi said. "But we didn't find Xu Li's household registration file...Jinlu County was evacuated in a hurry, and a lot of file data was damaged. Data recovery has not been completed yet."

"So, Xu Li was an 'illegal resident' at that time?" Sun Hang asked, "Like me?"

"Yes." Yang Qi nodded. "Except for this application form for leaving the city, we can't find any information about this person. We don't know what kind of relationship she has with Qiao Liu that allowed Qiao Liu to lend her the car..."

"Is the traffic management department of Tianfu City from Chishi?" Ye Xuan said coldly, "Even such a person can be allowed to leave the city?" "Because at that time the work of transferring residents' household registration had a high priority, and Xu Li claimed that she could only complete the household registration transfer after getting those documents back, and she also signed a waiver agreement, so the traffic management department let her go." Yang Qi said.

"Is she back then?"

"Seven hours after leaving Tianfu City, she drove Qiao Liu's car back the same way." Yang Qi said, "Although the camera signals along Highway 102 were cut off due to the influence of the eternal night, seven hours is almost the exact time it takes to drive from Tianfu City to Jinlu County and back. At the fastest speed of that car, it would take five hours to drive this distance, which means that she only stayed in Jinlu County for two hours at most."

"How can they guarantee that Xu Li has gone to Jinlu County? What if she drove off the road?" Ye Xuan questioned.

"I also have doubts... But after checking Qiao Liu's information again, I found that Qiao Liu's father also had a property in Jinlu County. After his death, the property was transferred to Qiao Liu's name. Combined with the unknown relationship between Xu Li and Qiao Liu, I have every reason to suspect that there may be traces of A11 organization's activities in Jinlu County." Yang Qi said.

"I didn't expect Director Yang to be not only good at scientific research, but also good at reasoning and solving cases." Sun Hang joked, "So where did Xu Li go after returning to Tianfu City?"

"Nothing has been found. She drove her car into a blind spot and then disappeared. Both the person and the car are gone." Yang Qi sighed, "The Public Security Bureau has already searched that area, but nothing has been found so far."

"So my mission is... to investigate Jinlu County?" Wang Xiyi looked a little strange. "Although it is a small border town, the permanent population is at least tens of thousands... You mean you want me to search those uninhabited buildings one by one? I think by the time I finish searching, Chimera 17 will have hatched hundreds of times, right?"

"No, we have a key prop." As Yang Qi spoke, a remote-controlled cart slowly drove in front of Wang Xiyi.

There was an ordinary watch on the cart, which didn't look like an expensive one.

But the moment the cart was pushed into the interrogation room, Wang Xiyi and Sun Hang both felt a faint eerie aura coming from the watches.

"An artifact-like strange object?" Wang Xiyi frowned and asked, "What is this?"

"This is the strange equipment Yao Yu carries with him." Yang Qi said, "The effect is that after activation, it will generate a small-scale shielding field, which is enough to block the aura of strange creatures to a certain extent, and block the ability of mind spying."

Sun Hang smacked his lips. No wonder he couldn't read Yao Yu and Wen Ya's thoughts when they were together before...it turned out to be because of this watch.

This thing is pretty good. After Lao Wang finishes his mission, I can find a way to get it and play with it.

"This thing is the 'equipment' that the A11 organization distributed to Yao Yu." Yang Qi said, "In addition to the functions I just mentioned, when activated, it can also sense similar strange creatures within a certain range. Yao Yu told him that he and Qiao Liu used this thing to confirm each other's identities... If the A11 organization has a hidden base in Jinlu County, this watch should also react."

Wang Xiyi picked up the watch, fiddled with it carefully, and asked, "How do I activate the function of this strange device?"

"Just adjust the time on your watch to match the real time."

Only then did Wang Xiyi notice that the time shown on the watch was a full hour faster than the actual time.

Wang Xiyi adjusted the time on her watch, and the moment she pressed the knob, the eerie aura emanating from the watch suddenly disappeared without a trace, as if it was just an ordinary watch.

"Come to think of it, Qiao Liu should also have such a strange equipment on him, right?"

"Yes, but it's not a watch. Qiao Liu never wears a watch." Yang Qi said, "It's just that we didn't find any strange equipment on her body, nor in the ruins of the burned bar."

"Then what will be the reaction after sensing the same origin weird thing?"

"According to Yao Yu, after this watch senses a strange creature of the same origin, the bottom cover next to the skin will heat up slightly. The closer the distance, the higher the temperature... The farthest sensing distance is about one kilometer."

"So, all I have to do is wear this watch and fly over Jinlu County?" Wang Xiyi said as she put the watch on her wrist.

"Yes."

"Okay, then I'll go early and come back early." Wang Xiyi looked at Sun Hang meaningfully, "After all, I have something very important to do tonight."

After saying that, she walked out in a hurry.

"Do you need to send someone to support Ye Fu?" Ye Xuan said after Wang Xiyi left, "I still have two mobile teams that can be dispatched."

"You have seen Wang Xiyi's fighting style... ordinary soldiers are a burden to her." Yang Qi said, "I believe she should be able to complete this mission."

"Okay." Ye Xuan nodded. "I'm more interested in Qiao Liu himself... My subconscious always tells me that Qiao Liu and Xu Li are the same person."

"I thought so at first, but judging from the surveillance video, their appearance and figures don't match at all..." Wang Xiyi said, subconsciously glancing at Fukada Miki who was "disguised" by Sun Hang, "Unless she has some special ability to change her figure and appearance, otherwise, this possibility is unlikely."

At this time, Sun Hang, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked, "Who decorated Qiao Liu's bar?"

"Decoration?" Yang Qi and Ye Xuan were both stunned for a moment. "What do you want to ask?"

"Didn't her bartender say that she often stared at the fish tank in a daze? Who filled that fish tank for her?"
