Chapter 70 The Invisible Man Appears Again
Chapter 70 The Invisible Man Appears Again
"It looks like the people in the car are killing each other!"
As soon as Lu Guan finished speaking, a layer of blood mist sprayed out of the car opposite, making the interior of the car hazy and almost impossible to see anything.
Suddenly, the other side door of the car opened, but the streetlights were too dim, and no one came out.
Lu Guan kept his gun raised, watching that direction with unwavering vigilance.
He found that there was no movement inside the car.
Li Jiuhe and Chen Zhenghai rushed over, and before they could even ask Xu Wei and the other two why they hadn't launched an arrest operation, they saw that the car was covered in splattered blood.
The two were immediately stunned.
"What happened?"
"I don't know, the people inside suddenly started fighting amongst themselves..."
Chen Zhenghai noticed that the rear door of the sedan was open: "Has someone left?"
Lu Guan shook his head decisively: "No, I've been watching the whole time, and no one has come out."
After waiting a moment and confirming that there was no movement inside the car, Chen Zhenghai and Li Jiuhe cautiously approached the sedan.
The scene inside the car was horrific; a girl who looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old was lying in a pool of blood in the driver's seat.
There were several bloody holes in his chest and face, and presumably in his back as well. His eyes were still open, as if he was still unwilling to accept his fate, but he had already died.
Li Jiuhe immediately recognized the man sitting in the passenger seat; it was Wang Feng, with whom he had a brief encounter.
Since Wang Feng is here, then the girl sitting next to him...
Li Jiuhe shifted his gaze to the unfamiliar girl's face again. Although there was a bloody hole on her cheek, causing the flesh to be torn open, he was certain that he had never seen this face before.
This is what a teenage girl looks like, no longer the six-year-old Li Yi!
Is this what the person impersonating my daughter really looks like?!
Li Jiuhe felt alarmed.
On the other side, Chen Zhenghai, relying on his exceptional insight, quickly came to a conclusion.
He said, "Both of them are covered in knife wounds."
Li Jiuhe knelt down in front of Wang Feng and examined him carefully. He saw that his heart had been pierced, but it seemed that this was the only fatal wound on his body.
Just then, Wang Feng suddenly moved slightly; this guy was still alive.
However, he couldn't even open his eyes, his breath was barely audible, and his lips moved slightly.
Li Jiuhe quickly brought it to his lips.
As Wang Feng's indistinct voice came out, he vaguely heard two words.
"Invisible..."
Wang Feng seemed to want to continue speaking, but no sound could be heard. He remained with his lips slightly parted as he breathed his last.
"What did he say?" Chen Zhenghai asked.
Li Jiuhe sat up abruptly, looked at him, and replied, "Invisible? He seemed to have said 'invisible'!"
Chen Zhenghai was slightly taken aback, then his expression turned to surprise, and he immediately turned his head to look around.
Together with Li Jiuhe, the two quickly walked around the car to check the open rear door.
All I saw was a set of blood-stained men's clothes piled up haphazardly in the car; I found nothing else.
Xu Wei and Lu Guan had already gotten out of the car. Lu Guan was still holding up his pistol, keeping a close eye on the surroundings.
Although he couldn't put it into words, he had a strange feeling in his heart, an intuition that the area was not safe.
"You only saw the car door open, but you didn't see anyone get out?" Chen Zhenghai asked, turning his head.
Both of them shook their heads at the same time.
Li Jiuhe glanced around. This place was near the suburbs, and everything outside the dim streetlights was pitch black. He couldn't see anything clearly at the moment.
"What exactly happened just now?" Xu Wei couldn't help but ask.
Chen Zhenghai replied with a solemn expression, "Judging from the traces at the scene, it doesn't seem like the two people in the car killed each other. Rather, there was a third person committing the crime in the back seat, and... this perpetrator might be invisible."
Xu Wei and Li Jiuhe had previously assisted a team in apprehending a pursuer.
Upon hearing the words "invisible man," she was immediately startled and looked at Li Jiuhe.
Li Jiuhe was already pondering this question and asked Chen Zhenghai, "Team Leader Chen, to your knowledge, how many Sequence Users possess the ability to become invisible?"
"Not many." Chen Zhenghai shook his head. "Each Sequencer's ability is unique, with very little overlap. Even if their Sequence abilities have some similarities, they can't be exactly the same, like two leaves."
"What is the probability that two invisible people would appear in Wangchuan City at almost the same time?" Li Jiuhe asked again.
"That's hard to say," Chen Zhenghai replied honestly. "It's like buying instant lottery tickets now; you might find several winning tickets in a box, or you might not find any..."
"I shouldn't have this problem," Li Jiuhe said calmly, shaking his head.
Chen Zhenghai couldn't help but smile: "Of course, that's assuming you don't use your sequence abilities."
He then pointed to the girl in the car who looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old: "If my judgment is correct, this person is the one pretending to be your daughter. Her sequence ability allows her to change her body. As for the specific name of this ability, I will be able to determine it after I go back and check the data."
"But why were they killed by that invisible man?" Xu Wei couldn't help but ask.
To her, it was somewhat unbelievable. If the invisible man was the same criminal discovered in the case of capturing the tracker, how could he suddenly be involved in the case of Li Jiuhe's daughter being impersonated?
Are these two cases related?
Li Jiuhe had the same question as her, but he didn't feel sorry for the invisible man's escape.
"In that case, let's just ask this girl!"
……
The scene before him shifted, and Li Jiuhe initiated a mission reset.
The moment he entered this welcoming road in the north of the city, he had already decided on his mission to capture the imposter who was impersonating his daughter.
This good habit should be maintained.
This is why Li Jiuhe hasn't been setting up tasks to keep himself alive for the time being, because he can only define one task at this point.
If one always defines "survival" as the task, avoiding being ambushed and killed, then one cannot define it again when one wants to complete other key events.
The imposter had previously told him that as Li Jiuhe's strength increased, his sequence ability would allow him to define two tasks simultaneously.
I don't know if it's true or not, so I can only take it one step at a time.
Later, Li Jiuhe tried again and found that whenever he defined a task to find his daughter, the task information prompt was still "This task has exceeded your basic task duration and cannot be defined at present".
He suspected that it wasn't just a matter of the basic task duration; the task might be extremely demanding in other aspects, such as energy expenditure, which was something his current abilities simply couldn't handle.
"Drive slower."
Just then, Li Jiuhe reminded Xu Wei, who was driving.
Their car happened to pass by a row of vehicles parked on the side of the road.
