Chapter Fourteen: Sylvan's Decision

The investigators from the Security Bureau were at a loss as they walked down the stairs. Mr. Yu frowned, trying desperately to seize some key clues.

After bypassing the broken corpses on the second floor, a flash of inspiration flashed through Saco's mind, as if lightning flashed across his mind!

"Wait, Yu Hua!"

"What's wrong?"

"The corpse...this corpse!" Sacco trembled with excitement, while Mr. Yu stood beside him in confusion with his fierce dead eyes staring at him.

"???" Sako calmed down and explained as clearly as possible: "All the corpses are gone, why is this one still there?"

"Daggers, bullets, bloodstains, security booths, it seems like a lot of clues have been preserved, but in fact there are none of them of value!"

"The corpse is the key to the murder. If this is really weird, it can be seen from the damage to the corpse."

Mr. Yu failed to follow Sacco's train of thought at all. His words were too confusing and convoluted, "You mean this body is important?"

Sacco said with great confidence: "No, this body is not important at all. The cause of death was trampling, and his identity is just an ordinary employee."

Three question marks seemed to appear on Mr. Yu's forehead.

Sacco patiently smiled at his friend and explained: "We were delayed in Seine City for a day, and the bodies in the building have basically been disposed of. Why is this one on the second floor still left?"

"I think this is the clerk's show of kindness to us, but this is a bit too deliberate. Leaving this one among all the corpses... seems to be deliberately reminding us that the rest have problems, isn't it?"

Sacco pondered deeply: "What happened in the Star Building cannot be viewed in isolation. All the elements occurred in one attack. Remember the purpose of our coming here - to investigate possible monsters and obtain conclusive evidence."

!”

Sacco dialed the headquarters smoothly. The problem he wanted to know was a secret that was beyond his authority. He had to ask his superiors for instructions. Only by investigating and communicating with his superiors would he be able to find out.

Three hours later, Mr. Yu and Sacco received the message while eating ramen. After reading it, Sacco showed a confident smile.

"It's exactly what I thought, Yu Hua, let's go!"

"Where to go?"

"Go to the captain and tell him that there is a problem with the clerk!"

Investigator Sylvain was in the hotel room. Sacco and the others found him and told him their suspicions. He listened calmly and his expression was not as shocked or solemn as expected.

"Tell me why you think so."

Sacco sorted out his words and said slowly: "There are many doubts. The villain's route into Xingyao Building is from the security booth - elevator - 29th floor - 30th floor - leaving. This series of processes may not even take ten minutes.

No, according to the quotes of many staff members, the gunfire stopped when they ran out of the building."

"That is to say, that person had a lot of time to deal with the body and the traces he left, but he did nothing. Then, the clerk took care of the aftermath!"

"Those corpses can obviously be used as the most direct evidence, but now they are restricted in their containment. In addition, I learned that Lanster of the Star Group has an armed security team, and its members are allowed to be equipped with medium and light weapons.

, I’m afraid they are the ones stationed on the 29th floor!”

"Then let's assume that the people on the 30th floor are also Mr. Lanster's people. The guns, daggers, and footprints are human. The green blood and weird dents should be the monster we are looking for!"

After hearing this, Sylvan didn't speak for a long time. After a while, he asked: "Sacco, Yu Hua, are you determined to continue the investigation?"

"certainly!"

After waving the two of them out of the room, Sylvan walked to the balcony and rested half of his body on the railing. He was very sure that there was no bug in the room, but he could always feel the prying eyes...

·

I'm afraid it's a sniper. They have been deeply involved in the situation since they entered Seine City. The more they investigate, the more Sylvan feels that this matter is not simple!

What happened in the Star Building is just a trivial manifestation. What, what deeper darkness is lurking here? Not just the clerk, I'm afraid the mayor, executives from all walks of life, and factory owners have problems!

At the banquet, Sylvan discovered that these old-timers who were involved in politics and society... were actually not tactful and sophisticated enough when it came to socializing. Many times, he was even needed to open up the topic and liven up the atmosphere!

Weird... It's like a bird forgetting to fly, a fish not knowing how to drink water, spring-breathing words, ever-changing styles, unpredictable attitudes, contagious smiles, sincere feelings from the heart, these

They are all integrated into the bones of politicians, something they have practiced and refined continuously for decades. Those government officials gave him the feeling... like puppets in human skin.

There is another thing. Sylvan discovered through the National Security Agency's informants in this city that Mr. Lanster's son... had not received any treatment or placement!

In name, the heirs of the Shining Star Group and the Lance family were so completely neglected that no one cared about them. In the past, the capitalists, who had already swarmed like sharks, this time they tacitly demarcated the boundaries...

To be honest, after the investigation reached this level, the things hidden behind it already made Sylvan's scalp numb. The most important thing he should do was to leave here overnight with the information.

Sylvan looked at the information on the paper and asked himself, should he continue the investigation?

He once again faced different choices, each leading to a different fate and path. Once determined, there was no turning back. There was only one chance. Just like many years ago, when he was investigating a major corruption case, he found something in the ledger.

Boss’s name······

At that time, he was faced with the same situation as today. Should he escape, or take the initiative to join the whirlpool?

"I already have no choice..."

When he thought about his sad wish, Sylvan couldn't help but feel full of determination.

Continue the investigation until all the truth is revealed!

The branches and leaves of the flower pots on the side of the balcony cast shadows under the light. In the shadows, a black and white eye stared at him quietly.

Tiny tentacles grew out of Sylvan's hair... and read his thoughts by connecting to his scalp.

"There are no secrets in this world. Everyone is exposed to the sun, and in the shadows, followers of Thousand Eyes are everywhere."

"This sentence is the recent declaration of a new underground sect in Seine City. Do you have any clues?"

The shop owner looked embarrassed and pointed to his 5-square-meter shop, "Sir, I just open a small shop. I really don't know this!"

Mr. Yu also expressed understanding and put away the paper and pen. Suddenly, there was a cold touch on his forehead. He looked up at the gloomy sky, where raindrops were falling.

“It’s raining??”
