Chapter 10 Moon Killing
Cui Jian took a bite of rice to give himself time to think. He was not mentally prepared and for a moment he was unable to put himself in the shoes of the former Cui Jian.

Lin Yu couldn't believe it: "You, why are you here?"

Cui Jian looked at Lin Yu pitifully and said, "Just to make a living." This job is really great.

Lin Yu: "You..." Lin Yu didn't know what to say. With Cui Jian's business ability and his proficiency in English and Spanish, he shouldn't be an administrator in the mountains. At the same time, Lin Yu also knew that Cui Jian was an alcoholic and a useless person. How could he become an administrator in the mountains?
After a long time, Lin Yu spoke and said, "Long time no see."

Cui Jian laughed: "Yes, yes." His laughter was three parts awe and three parts honesty. It was like a country bumpkin meeting a high-ranking official, feeling both scared and ashamed.

Lin Yu looked at Cui Jian for a while, then looked to the side: "I'll get the things."

"Oh." Cui Jian moved aside and looked to the side together.

Lin Yu walked over, picked up the string of beads that had fallen, walked to the door, and looked at Cui Jian again. Cui Jian kept a frightened smile. Lin Yu walked out the door without saying anything. The driver in his forties held an umbrella and sent her to the car, and the car left.

Cui Jian leaned against the door, ate while watching the car leave, closed the door, and poured a glass of water. From a behavioral point of view, he thought that Lin Yu would not cause trouble for him again, and it was more likely that he would become the topic of conversation and jokes at the table of Lin Yu's girlfriends.

Others laugh at me for being crazy, but I laugh at others for not being able to see through!
……

May 2034, 5, 5: p.m., Zhongmuro, Hancheng, moderate rain.

Cui Jian, wearing work clothes, was buying a pair of goldfish and a goldfish tank at a pet store, and told the boss: "Half a tank of water is enough."

The boss poured out some water and handed the fish tank to Cui Jian. Cui Jian said thank you and walked to the door, picked up his umbrella from the door and opened it. He held the bottom of the fish tank with his left hand and the top of the fish tank with his right hand, tilted his neck slightly to hold the umbrella. He walked a few steps and waited to cross the zebra crossing with the crowd.

30 seconds later, the green light came on and pedestrians from both sides walked onto the zebra crossing. From a high vantage point, it looked like two waves of mushrooms meeting each other. Pedestrians were not very aware of yielding to the right and the two groups of people were intertwined in an instant.

Cui Jian, who was holding the fish tank with his neck tilted to hold the umbrella, moved his right hand, and the glass piece of the fish tank was pinched between his fingers, and he pulled it to the right in a flash. In the blink of an eye, Cui Jian's right hand was back on the fish tank, and the glass piece was tightly integrated with the fish tank.

Two groups of mushrooms passed by each other, and there were scattered mushrooms behind them. A black-haired, blue-eyed foreigner stopped, touched his neck, and saw blood on his hand. Seeing this, he threw away the umbrella in his hand, turned his head in disbelief, and a lot of blood gushed out. The girl who saw all this up close clenched her fists and screamed desperately.

The crowd who heard the scream turned around and saw the foreigner reaching out to the girl: "Save me, save me."

The girl stepped back again and again, even dropping her umbrella. The foreigner reached out to a boy and took two steps towards him: "Save me, save me."

The boy was quite brave. When he took a step forward, the foreigner fell to the ground with a thud. The boy hurriedly squatted over to check on him: "Are you okay? Are you okay? Call the emergency number quickly."

……

A man finished reading the last file, picked up the black tea beside him, took a sip, and closed his eyes in thought.

"Mr. Su, how is it?" A man in a suit couldn't help but ask.

The man called Master Su was less than 30 years old this year. His name was Su Chen. He was a very famous detective in the small circle and was respected as the Detective Pineapple Su. He was also a person with a very strong background. The fact that he could find Su Chen for help showed that he was very important.

Su Chen did not answer. The man in the suit said, "The National Criminal Police's Ice Thorn Team, together with criminal investigation experts from multiple countries, analyzed the videos shot by four cameras in different locations frame by frame, but they still could not find the suspect."

"The many countries do not include the mysterious country in the East, right?"

"Look at what you said, Master Su. Any auxiliary police officer from the mysterious big country can handle this case. They will not be involved in this book."

Su Chen: "In broad daylight, in a downtown area covered with cameras, killing someone without any clues. This shows how skilled and daring he is. Who is the deceased?"

The man in the suit replied: "He is the owner of an auction house."

Su Chen looked at the girl next to him. The girl was typing on the computer, and photos taken by a surveillance camera at a 45-degree angle appeared on the screen. After technical processing, they looked relatively clear. The girl drew a circle for each person on the sidewalk and gave them a number.

Su Chen turned his chair and looked at the screen: "You must have screened the suspects. Who is the least suspicious? No. 1, wearing a special conspicuous work suit, no mask covering his face, holding a fish tank in his hand, and an umbrella around his neck. Throughout the whole process, his movements basically did not change."

"The second one is girl No. 2 in white. It seems that her umbrella is broken. Her right hand is holding the umbrella inside..."

The man in the suit interrupted with a smile: "Master Su..." Su Chen nodded in understanding and said: "You suspect the nine people from 78 to 87, right? Six of them are difficult to identify directly because of their umbrellas. You think the suspect must be among these six. My numbering has clearly marked their suspicion."

The man in the suit: "Master Su is truly a god."

Su Chen said: "Let's rule out No. 81 first. Camera No. 2 captured a discount event at a nearby supermarket, and the bag he was carrying was from this supermarket. It's difficult for him to grasp the exact time because no one knows how long he will have to queue at the checkout counter. No. 82..." Su Chen suddenly thought of something and stopped analyzing.

"Master Su?"

Su Chen asked: "Which auction house?"

The man in the suit hesitated, but finally said, "Water Pattern, the Roman Water Pattern Underground Auction House."

"Water ripples? Underground auction? What's being auctioned? Antiques? Paintings? Arms?"

"people."

“Voluntary or forced?”

The man in the suit replied: "It is possible that some of them were kidnapped or trafficked."

A drop of cold sweat dripped down Su Chen's forehead. He asked, "Qisha? You released the dead as bait in order to catch Qisha?"

The man in the suit answered with difficulty: "Yes."

Su Chen was furious. "I treated you as my junior, but you treated me as a fool? Their collective responsibility system does lead to the killing of innocent people, but if I help you catch them, even if my ancestors' graves smoke, it won't be enough to deduct my good deeds. I was wondering why the population business has suddenly become popular after a year of decline. It turns out that your national criminal law enforcement is behind it."

The man in the suit said: "We are also cracking down on the human trafficking." But his tone was not convincing at all.

Su Chen chuckled and tilted his head, saying, "See the guest off."

The man in the suit was thinking about something else, but he finally stood up and said, "Master Su, thank you for your help."

"No, I'll treat you to a meal later."

The girl saw the man in the suit off, closed the door, and asked, "Boss, are you afraid of the Seven Killers?"

"On the contrary, people like us are least afraid of the Seven Killers. They will never cause us any trouble. Even if I solve the case and arrest the perpetrators, there will be no trouble. I don't accept the case for two reasons. The first reason is what I just said. I will not do such a thing. Whether you are a good person or a bad person, you must have a basic bottom line." Su Chen said: "Although the Seven Killers' direct relatives are punished by association, it cannot be denied that it is very effective and very deterrent."

The girl asked: "What's the second reason?"

Su Chen: "If it was the Seven Killers who committed the crime, it would be very difficult to solve the case. At least 87 of the 35 people had the chance to kill the deceased. The key is that I don't know which killer it was, what he is good at, what habits he has, and I have to look through all the files of the Seven Killers and classify the murderers. Besides, the Seven Killers is just a term. If one Monday dies, the second Monday will be born soon."

After saying that, Su Chen smiled coldly, and the girl asked, "What did you think of?"

Su Chen said: "A few days ago, I heard that someone in Hancheng couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to reopen the auction. And I don't know what they were thinking when they held the auction with the Seven Killers stationed in Hancheng."

The girl asked curiously, "How do you know he's stationed here and not from overseas?"

"Stupid, we can tell from the deceased's itinerary. He was still traveling around major cities around the world while carrying a target, so I concluded that he was a bait. He died on the street less than 12 hours after arriving in Hancheng. Although it is not certain, it is highly likely that there are people with the Seven Killers living in Hancheng."

The girl said angrily: "My salary does not include being called an idiot. I want a raise."

"Gaga, ga." Su Chen leaned back and closed his eyes and said, "Qisha made a mistake and exposed the permanent residence of one of his killers. In the future, Hancheng is likely to become the focal city of the game between various parties. Maybe it's not a mistake, but that people don't care at all."

The girl added: "But some people will use the Seven Killings to achieve their own goals."

Su Chen looked at the girl and said, "You have become smarter today. I will deduct half of your salary from the tuition fee."
