Chapter 60 Serial Suicides 22) Monthly Pass)
Shen Lang took a car to the headquarters of the Xijiang District Magic Management Bureau. This time, Zhao Shijie directly took him into the office without being stopped by the guards.
"Brother Tang, Brother Zhang, Sister Yuxin." Shen Lang greeted the logistics team members in the office one by one.
"Alang is here." Tang Yutong responded.
"I'll just say that the captain was looking for Alang." Zhang Qiming had indeed had such an expression on his face.
"Hello, Alang." Ran Yuxin also greeted Shen Lang.
This time, the people from the logistics team were obviously more enthusiastic about him, maybe because he was here to help.
Zhao Shijie brought a chair to Shen Lang, and then stood in front of a small movable blackboard.
"We have called him. We don't say much nonsense. Let me explain the basic case to Shen Lang first." Zhao Shijie spoke directly.
"The captain is indeed a workaholic!" Ran Yuxin murmured in a low voice.
"That's right, the Action Team finally got a bad start. It gave our logistics team a chance. Of course the captain has to seize it!" Zhang Qiming responded in a low voice.
"Calm the sound!" Zhao Shijie suddenly spoke with a serious expression.
“We should be happy that the people from the Action Team were injured?
They are all colleagues from the same unit, do you think they are competing for employment!
It’s just that there are few people in the bureau now, so we are on the way.
Don’t say such things again in the future. If others hear it, they will say that our logistics team is ignorant.”
Ran Yuxin and Zhang Qiming quickly closed their voices.
Tang Yutong looked at the two of them next to him and smiled. Young people are young people!
Seeing that Ran Yuxin and Zhang Qiming had learned a lesson, Zhao Shijie's face slowed down. He took out a few photos, posted them on the blackboard, and said to Shen Lang.
"Look at these photos to see what you can see."
Shen Lang did as he said, thinking that there was something abnormal in these photos, so he activated the "insight" skill.
【Photo 1:
An ordinary photo. The photo records the tragic situation of a man after he jumped off a building and died.]
【Photo 2:
An ordinary photo. The photo records the tragic situation of a woman after she died of suffocation after burning charcoal in the house.]
【Photo 3:
An ordinary photo. The photo records the tragic situation of an old man who died after he jumped off a bridge and was salvaged.]
...
Shen Lang looked over one by one and found that these were just ordinary photos. In addition, the first time he saw so many such real photos of dead people, he felt a little nauseous.
Shen Lang endured it and said:
“There is nothing unusual in these photos.”
When Zhao Shijie heard this, he looked at Shen Lang in surprise.
"I just asked you to see the people who committed suicide in the photos. You won't use detection skills on these photos, right?"
"Yes, didn't you let me 'see' these photos?"
Tang Yutong smiled,
"Old Zhao, you don't say it clearly. You like to say it and stop it, it's a bad habit!"
Zhao Shijie was speechless:
"Okay, my fault."
"Shen Lang, these photos are just ordinary photos taken by the police at the scene. You don't have to use magic to detect, just look at the content.
This time I didn’t express it clearly, I apologize to you.”
Seeing Zhao Shijie apologizing seriously, Shen Lang quickly said no.
Tang Yutong answered the conversation at this time.
"Alang, you may have been exposed to magic for a short time and think that magic is fresh and fun, but you should also pay attention to using magic. If you use too much magic, it is not good for you."
"I understand." Shen Lang thanked Tang Yutong for his reminder.
“Are these photos of people who committed suicide?”
"Yes," Zhao Shijie replied,
"There is nothing strange about killing this happening every year.
When our Xijiang District police discovered the first suicide incident in these photos, the police only thought it was a normal thing, after all, people commit suicide for various reasons every year.
However, in a very short period of time, several suicides occurred in Xijiang District one after another.
The police involved may not see the whole picture because of their limited cognition and do not feel abnormal. But we soon discovered this abnormality based on previous years' big data.
We used internal permissions to obtain archives of these suicides and finally determined that this was likely a magical incident."
Shen Lang looked at these photos again and said in confusion:
"How can I tell it was a magical incident?"
Even his "insight" skill did not give a prompt. If he saw these photos at first, he would not think that these events had anything to do with magic.
"Of course I can't see it on the surface," Zhao Shijie continued to explain.
"But as long as this obvious abnormality is found in our own jurisdiction, our Magic Administration has the obligation to investigate it.
Even if we can't find anything at that time, we will not be ineffective and have done our best."
Since Zhao Shijie said that, Shen Lang naturally had no objection. He came to help just to establish a good relationship with the Magic Management Bureau, and he was also jealous of the materials in the Magic Management Bureau's warehouse.
Although the [Magic Props: Staff of Fire] is not very useful to him for the time being, how can a magician do without a staff?
Besides, he has so many magic positions, and the number of fire magic he masters always increases, so it is not a problem for him to prepare in advance.
"Then how do we check?" Shen Lang asked.
Ran Yuxin answered the conversation at this time.
"Although what we said on the surface is that we can't see it, if we don't have a certain basis, we wouldn't have investigated so vigorously."
"According to our investigation and analysis, we found that there is actually an association between these dead people. This is why we think there are obvious abnormalities worth investigating."
"What's the connection?" Shen Lang asked.
"That is, these suicides are all connected with Shanghai Port High School in Xijiang District."
"Shanghai SIPG High School?" Shen Lang had heard of this high school. It is a private high school that is well-known throughout the entire Magic City. It has extremely strong teaching staff and excellent results in the college entrance examination every year.
Many parents in Magic City yearn for this school, but the high tuition and various fees of Shanghai SIPG High School have made most families with average families disdain.
Orphans like Shen Lang don’t even have to think about entering Shanghai SIPG High School. It would be nice to be able to enter an ordinary public high school.
Zhao Shijie took over the conversation at this time.
"Yes, Shanghai SIPG High School, you should have heard of it."
"The students in it have good family conditions. Now something happened to those related to Shanghai SIPG High School. Although these parents and schools have not seen the connection, this puts a lot of pressure on us.
To be realistic, if someone in these wealthy people really finds an abnormality and exposes it, the impact will be much greater than that caused by ordinary people."
"So what exactly is causing trouble, do you have any ideas?" Shen Lang asked again.
"Something like this that is difficult to find traces is mostly caused by ghosts or demonized ghosts.
If it is a violent destruction incident, it may be the physical monsters and monsters that are causing trouble."
"In this case, it is difficult to detect the general methods of our Magic Bureau, so the magician's detection methods are required."
"By the way, if the investigation is not going well, we may need to detect everyone in the entire school. I wonder if your detection method can be supported by it?"
Zhao Shijie did not regard Shen Lang as an ordinary magician. You should know that ordinary first-level magicians cannot find the magic of shapeshifts no matter what, but Shen Lang can.
So Shen Lang must have some detection methods that are not magic, but Zhao Shijie did not have any desire to explore, as long as Shen Lang can help.
Shen Lang also saw that Zhao Shijie knew his specialness, but this could also increase his value in the Magic Management Bureau. He was not panicked.
"Don't worry, I can live there."
Shen Lang didn't say anything "I can hold on even ten times more people."
Zhao Shijie glanced at Shen Lang,
Chapter completed!
