Swah——
The sound of tearing air echoed in her ears, and when her vision became clear again, she had appeared at a barbecue stall on the side of the road.
Newspapers and other garbage were blowing in the cold wind, the streets of the town were brightly lit, and the surrounding environment was still lively. However, due to the large number of people and the extremely fast speed just now, no one noticed that there was anything wrong. At most, some people thought they were dazzled.
After coming to her senses, Ling Mengxue saw the smiling face in front of her. She was stunned at first, but then she was speechless after she realized what she was doing: "Xia Keke, do you know what you did?"
"Brother Xiluo, you don't look very well. That's just right. I'll treat you to some barbecue from another world so we can relieve our boredom together!" Xia Keke smiled innocently, looking romantic and cute. She seemed to be completely unaware of what was happening. She waved and called the boss over to take the order.
Ling Mengxue's cheeks twitched slightly, and in the end, all her helplessness turned into a sigh.
How can this be said?
Not only was the investigation plan at the pub disrupted, but it seemed that even the expenses for the dinner were paid with her own money.
Is this the legendary “the guest becomes the host”?
"Can you help me investigate someone in the tavern later?" Ling Mengxue smiled gently and didn't intend to get angry about such a small matter.
That is, of course, assuming what answer she will get.
Xia Keke nodded, her mind didn't seem to be on this. Her eyes were fixed on the barbecue grill that was sizzling and emitting fragrant white smoke, and her saliva was dripping down her face.
Fragrant!
So delicious!
At the barbecue shop, the proprietress raised her lips and fanned the fire vigorously with a fan. The charcoal was burning. She put a skewer of mutton on the barbecue grill in one hand and kept turning it. After a while, the fragrant skewers came out of the oven and were placed in front of the two people.
As if out of confidence in her cooking skills, the proprietress waved a fan and chuckled, "Judging from your appearance, this must be your first time here, right? I believe that after trying our 'Swinging BBQ', you will never be able to eat food from any other barbecue restaurant in the future!"
"Really?" Xia Keke blinked in surprise: "But it is indeed very fragrant ~ It seems that even skewers of incense are not as fragrant as this, it must be delicious."
"That's right. If our 'Swinging BBQ' is as delicious and affordable as ours, you won't find another one like it if you walk around the whole street!" When the proprietress heard this, she immediately laughed out loud and raised her chin.
Ling Mengxue was speechless. She didn't joke with them. She picked up a skewer and started eating it silently. She couldn't help but complain: "It's okay, but not that amazing."
Boss lady: "..."
Xia Keke: “…”
"Why are you looking at me?" Ling Mengxue felt confused when she saw that they looked at her with complicated expressions.
Is it my fault again?
Her temperament is quite cool, which is totally different from the funny guy. Could it be that the atmosphere was ended unconsciously? ?

Chapter 154 Do you long for freedom?
Faced with this atmosphere that made it impossible to eat, Ling Mengxue cheered up a little and said with a smile: "Keke, let's do this for now. I still have to find the delivery man. The one in the tavern is relying on you."
After saying that, she put the last piece of barbecued pork on the skewer into her mouth, picked up a bottle of juice, and soon disappeared under the orange night light.
"Little sister, is that your brother? I didn't expect you to be so shy. It's still dangerous for a boy to walk home alone at night, especially when he's so handsome. Do you want to follow him?" The proprietress stared at Ling Mengxue's back, looking at her in a daze: "I'll waive the bill for you. Just bring your brother with you next time."
"Ah ha? Big sister, are you interested in my brother?" Xia Keke licked her fingers and spoke with a smile.
The lady boss blushed when she heard this, and scratched her head in embarrassment: "Just take it as an excuse, then I'll treat you to barbecue every day, how about that?"
"No, Brother Xiluo is mine, no one can take him away."
"??"
……
at the same time.
Ling Mengxue strolled around the detention center a few hundred meters away from the police station like an idle person and soon arrived at the target location.
Noticing the person coming, the security guard at the door subconsciously became a little suspicious. This is basic professional ethics.
Ling Mengxue knew that she was being targeted, but she was not in a hurry. She just touched her shirt pocket and secretly activated the props she had prepared in advance.
【Universal Jammer】
【Quality: guaranteed】
[Introduction: A multifunctional signal shielding device, also known as a "signal killer", with built-in network and power-off functions, which can affect the operation and use of electronic equipment within a range——]
This little prop only costs about 200 points in the Destiny Quest mall, which is quite cheap and very practical.
In just one second, all the monitoring equipment within a one-kilometer radius suddenly failed.
Even if someone discovered it, there was no way to fix it. Replacing the equipment would be the same. The problem could only be solved by waiting for her to turn off the jammer.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ling Mengxue approached the police station. She planned to first understand the situation of the patrol guards.
Using spatial perception, it only took a few seconds to determine the approximate police force of the entire detention center. Excluding the auxiliary police officers around the security guards, there were currently about six or seven patrol officers left here.
"Little brother, are you still hanging around? If you want to visit, please come back on weekends. We are not open to the public at night." The security lady in front of the door saw Ling Mengxue looking absent-minded and reminded him enthusiastically.
Such a cute boy came to this place so late at night, probably for this matter, right?
Ling Mengxue originally wanted to say that she was here to rob a prisoner, but fortunately she stopped herself in time and said in a tone that she thought was very weak: "Auntie police, actually I'm lost, and I'm too embarrassed to ask someone for directions, so I thought about it and then..." As she spoke, her face showed melancholy, and there was some hint in her eyes.
The security lady immediately understood what was happening and quickly comforted him, "Don't worry, little brother. I already know your situation. Do you still remember your family's phone number?
"……younger brother?"
"...Hey, where did they go?"
While taking the statement, the security lady looked up and was suddenly confused, with her hands frozen in mid-air.
what's the situation?
The person disappeared?
Did you remember the way home?
……
Happy Town.
In an independent cell in the detention center, a woman in prison uniform was lying on the bed with a lit cigarette in her hand.
The tobacco burned particularly brightly in the dark night. After taking a puff of cigarette, the ash that was not flicked off fell off in a whole section. Under my feet, there was a whole floor of cigarette butts, and smoke rings kept swirling around my fingertips.
Bai Tangyin stared at the bright moonlight outside the iron window, feeling inexplicably melancholy for some reason.
Don’t ask where the cigarettes came from. A kind person gave me a box as a snack tonight.
Maybe it's because she's dying, there are always a few intellectual and rational people who still believe her.
I was delivering a takeaway at dark, but I was arrested for no reason and wrongly accused of being a murderer?
Is there anything more unfortunate than her in this world?
A lot, right?
However, her unlucky level has definitely exceeded that of 99 percent of the people. She was sentenced to death, and it was a "referendum" in public. She will surely be engraved on the pillar of shame in history!
The moonlight shines on the dirty and messy wall, and the iron gate emits a cold light. It is a vivid irony that the outside of the wall is bright and sunny, while the prison is rotten and moldy.
In the past, 'Bai Tangyin' still admired the efficiency of the police in Happy Town, but why does it seem like they have lost their minds recently?
Do you jump to conclusions without complete information and wrongly accuse good people?
Although it's true that she was at the first murder scene, she's also a victim, okay?
Last night, she just went to deliver a takeaway, but on the way there and back, she happened to run into the scene of the masked murderer committing a crime.
At that time, the murderer had just committed a crime and walked out of a rental apartment on the roadside, holding a fruit knife dripping with blood in his hand. When he saw her, he wanted to kill her to silence her. Who wouldn't be weak in the knees when seeing this?
Bai Tangyin's condition at the time was similar to that of a normal person. Her face was pale. She parked her electric bike on the side of the road, got out, picked up a brick and rushed forward, beating the murderer to a pulp. In the end, she was stained with the blood of the deceased.
Afterwards, she chased the murderer away and dropped the knife on the ground without him even having time to pick it up.
In this way, she managed to escape the disaster, carefully picked up the knife, and prepared to report it to the police station.
Before she could make the next move, four or five police cars surrounded her...
Without any chance to explain, the leading male police officer directly ordered her arrest.
And according to later inspection, after entering the relevant information, her fingerprints did match those on the murder weapon.
There was no way, the murderer was wearing gloves and there were only her fingerprints on them.
But after DNA testing, the police were shocked to find that even the bloodstains on her delivery uniform were exactly the same as those of the casualties!
Do we still need to think about the result?
Not surprisingly, she was locked up as a "murderer".
But in the end, she was just unlucky to be caught and used as a scapegoat, right? ?
Although it was dark at the time and the route she took was mostly blind spots for surveillance, she had an alibi for the order number and the time the food was delivered. Were all these things eaten?
Even her appeal was rejected, and retrial was useless, and the people handling the case didn’t even bother to pretend, they just targeted her!
Even though there were many sensible people who wanted to stand up for her, they were secretly pressured.
This corruption is pretty serious, isn't it?
The typical corruption case has been confirmed.
"Sister, do you long for freedom?"
Bai Tangyin was smoking a cigarette when she suddenly heard a sound in the void. She was so scared that she put out the cigarette!
[img=700,1038]https://rss.sfacg.com/web/novel/images/UploadPic/202208/31/0ddb83d3-3c73-4beb-adf3-4ebc9ea127ff.jpg[/img]
Chapter 155: Truth and Illusion?
"Who? Who's talking??"
Frightened, Bai Tangyin immediately jumped up from the bed.
At this moment, she no longer cared about the only cigarette left on her body and threw it on the ground.
She didn't know if she was mentally disturbed or had delusions, but she could clearly feel that a voice had just echoed in the cell out of nowhere.
The room is so small that all the items can be seen clearly. There is no speaker or other things inside. Could it be that the sound is coming from outside the window?
Most suspects' cells are equipped with radios, but hers is extremely "clean".
Also, I feel like this voice sounds familiar, as if I've heard it somewhere before? ?
click-
A crisp sound was heard, and Bai Tangyin suddenly felt her body relax. But when she looked down, she was stunned for a moment.
The shackles and manacles that were originally locked on his limbs suddenly broke apart inexplicably!
"Can you hear me? If there's no problem, then prepare to escape from prison."
The sudden sound resounded in the air again. This time Bai Tangyin was really unable to hold back his voice and his face became stiff.
Outrageous!
Is this a human or a ghost?
……
On the other side, in an empty park, Ling Mengxue sat on a bench, operating the keyboard, looking at the bewildered woman on the computer screen, also speechless.
The computer in her hand, which can record real-time video of images from another space, was just purchased from the Destiny Mall. According to Xihe, it was a new product, so he recommended that she buy it.
how to say?
It is useful, and you can have conversations across the air, but some people are scared.
After thinking for a while, Ling Mengxue adjusted the microphone beside her ear, cleared her throat and said, "Anyway, pay attention later. I will bring the 'reminder letter' and two bottles of disposable 'invisibility potion' and 'teleportation potion' to your... uh... room. It's up to you to choose. If you want to die, then just ignore what I said."
After saying a few words, she closed the laptop with a bang.
At the same time, in the cell.
After Bai Tangyin heard what she said, before she could complain, she saw a flash of silver light before her eyes. Then, two reagent bottles placed on a special wooden rack suddenly appeared in front of her, neatly spread out on the ground, with a short letter attached.
In an instant, all three views she had acquired during her nine years of compulsory education collapsed!
