Chapter 19: Unstable Factors

Fang Tian froze in his chair for several minutes before finally confirming the fact that the laptop he had just bought died gloriously.

This is not a system crash or a computer virus that can be solved by reinstalling the system, but the entire screen is cut in half - a student majoring in information technology at Aozora University, he understands that physical attacks have gone far beyond

reaching the limits of their maintenance capabilities.

"Lin Jiu?"

He asked tentatively to make sure that his neck would not be the next one hit by a physical attack.

This time Lin Jiu didn't make any response, and the dormitory fell into a dead silence.

Immediately afterwards, the door of the dormitory was kicked open, and the beam of the flashlight shone on Fang Tian's face. Fang Tian subconsciously blocked the light source with his hand. After a moment, he realized that it was Feng Xi who broke into the room.

Feng Xi held a flashlight in her left hand and a pistol in her right hand. She moved her wary eyes back and forth in the room. After a while, she put down the gun and asked, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay, but our good friend and enthusiastic citizen Laptop died gloriously."

"I know."

Fang Tian's optimistic attitude left Feng Xi speechless. Due to the special nature of the case, the fourth department monitored Fang Tian 24 hours a day. Therefore, when I heard the person in charge of monitoring said that there were sparks and lightning in Fang Tian's dormitory,

She rushed to the dormitory as soon as possible.

Seeing Fang Tian still joking at her, Feng Xi was speechless and secretly relieved.

Feng Xi closed the door of the dormitory, put away the gun, and turned to Fang Tian with a stern face, "Didn't I warn you not to do unnecessary things? Lin Jiu can cut open your laptop, so he can also cut it.

Open your throat."

Three years have passed since the disappearance case. They know nothing about Lin Jiu's current state, and they cannot rule out that she has gradually turned into a vicious ghost full of resentment in the past three years. Fang Tian mentioned it when taking notes.

He had visited Lin Jiu whom he had seen in his dream, and judging from the image he described, Lin Jiu had already shown initial signs of abnormal changes.

"Your task is just to find out where Lin Jiu is now. It is our job to investigate the case."

"Didn't I just find a breakthrough?"

"Breakthrough?"

Feng Xi snorted coldly, "You mean to ask Lin Jiu to help you review the case?"

"No one should know what happened that night three years ago better than Lin Jiu, right?"

"Then you have never thought about why I specifically told you not to do unnecessary things when we were at the police station?"

While speaking, Feng Xi glanced at the laptop that had been killed. This was enough to prove that Lin Jiu had become as aggressive as a deformed creature. However, she seemed to still have a trace of sanity left and did not leave a single trace in Qingkongda's dormitory.

A corpse, "Since you don't know anything, let me make an exception and give you some popular science. Asking the victim about the case is indeed the most direct and effective way, but there will also be some strong emotions in the process.

side effects.

"For example, every time a case is reviewed, the victim becomes extremely emotionally unstable and even shows strong aggression. Because of this, every inquiry needs to be conducted under a specific environment to ensure that the inquiry

The personal safety of the victim, not to mention that Lin Jiu is different from the victims of ordinary cases. She has shown a trend of abnormal changes, and her aggressiveness and destructive power are much stronger than ordinary ghosts."

Because of this, Feng Xi had already made the worst plan to face Fang Tian's body on the way here. Even a person from the fourth department would not be in the same room with Lin Jiu without any precautions.

Ask the other party about the case in the room.

"Is there such a thing?"

After Feng Xi's barrage of popular science, Fang Tian couldn't help but feel a little scared.

But what Feng Xi didn't know was that Lin Jiu didn't attack him not because he was lucky, but because he made a cup of "jasmine tea" for him before the game started. Fang Tian originally thought that the Anding tea was just for fun.

I was so happy, but I didn’t expect that a mere F-level prop could actually have such an effect?

Fang Tian felt extremely regretful, but it was not because of his reckless behavior of sharing a room with Lin Jiu, but because he had known that he would make another bag of tea for Lin Jiu to refill.

Although Lin Jiu finally showed him how to escape the puppet's pursuit, the effect of the tea leaves was over before he could explain the principle. Then, with the sacrifice of the computer, Lin Jiu also became a Riddler-like existence.

Why did Lin Jiu leave the "Maoyu Internet Café" after just one operation on the computer screen?

Fang Tian was puzzled by this.

"Now you know you're afraid?"

Feng Xi saw Fang Tian's face was gloomy and uncertain, thinking that her warning had paid off, "Tell me, what did you and Lin Jiu talk about?"

"On the day of the disappearance, Lin Jiu met a puppet monster in the 'Maoyu Internet Cafe'."

Hearing this, Feng Xi immediately sat down at the table, took out the notebook she always carried with her, and wrote down the words "puppet monster" on it.

This is a new piece of information received by the Aozong Police in three years. Before this, no one had mentioned the existence of puppet monsters.

"What does that monster look like specifically? Please tell me in detail."

"It's somewhat similar to a scarecrow. It's made of gears and metal materials. It doesn't look like a living person."

"Is Lin Jiu killed by this puppet monster?"

"It's not certain yet. Lin Jiu said she ran away at that time. Before I could ask what happened next, my computer exploded."

"...I understand, are there any other clues?"

"The network manager of the 'Maoyu Internet Cafe', I think he is suspected of committing a major crime."

The pen hanging on the notebook paused for a moment. Feng Xi did not immediately record the new clues provided by Fang Tian. She turned her head and looked at Fang Tian seriously, "Is the source of the information reliable?"

Unlike the "Puppet Monster" who has never been mentioned before, after the disappearance of Lin Jiu, the owner of the "Maoyu Internet Cafe" and the network administrator who worked that day were investigated several times. However, three years ago

, they were cleared of suspicion both in terms of motive and time.

Their biggest problem now is time. It will take a lot of resources to find the Internet cafe network administrator from three years ago. Even if it is the fourth subject, they must give a reasonable explanation to the bureau.

"At least the network administrator didn't mention the 'puppet monster' to you at that time."

"But no one else online at the time mentioned it."

"But in the game that Lin Jiu invited me to play, the network administrator must have seen the monster, and even tipped off the monster when Lin Jiu escaped."

"What did you say!?"

Feng Xi suddenly raised her voice, startling Fang Tian, ​​but she didn't seem to want to leave Fang Tian too much time to think, and asked in a more urgent tone, "Are you saying that Lin Jiu also thinks that the network administrator is an accomplice?"

?”

"Maybe."

Almost at the same time that Fang Tian gave an affirmative answer, Feng Xi's phone number was dialed, "Hello, I'm Feng Xi. I need you to help me immediately find out where Lin Jiu went missing three years ago.
