Chapter 338 338. Isn’t it funny?

Su Hong had obviously lost some weight. She didn't know whether it was because the previous tasks were too hard or because she was too busy these days.

"Xiaohong, you are finally here."

Qiao Mu waved his hand, but had no intention of leaving with Su Hong. Instead, he looked at the little witch.

"How many more times do you have?"

"Three times, that's fast!"

The little miko was filled with ambition because she got the seal stuffed animal with a crying expression like "Are you going to kill me?", so she answered energetically without looking back.

"?"

Su Hong looked at the little witch's back, recalled it, and then remembered that she was from Hejima Culture.

"When did you two have such a good relationship?"

He nudged Qiao Mu with his elbow.

"Very good?"

Qiao Mu asked back.

"Tsk, your speech is no different from that of a scumbag."

Su Hong rubbed her hair, and the strand of red hair loomed among the black hair. I don't know if it was an illusion, but the red area seemed to have become larger.

"But personal relationships are one thing, and we still have to be on guard when it comes to work."

"By the way, did you see anything on the street lamp when you came here?"

Qiao Mu asked.

"what?"

Su Hong recalled that there was nothing noteworthy except Christmas decorations and some banners hanging on the street lights.

"You really can't see it."

Qiao Mu nodded and thought about whether to tell Su Hong the answer directly.

"What you are investigating now is a case of missing people, right?"

"Yes, didn't you say you have a clue?"

Su Hong was suspicious.

"Well, those missing people should be hanging from the street lamps, but you can't see it. The depth of this abnormality is deeper than you. Xiao Hong, you can't handle it."

Qiao Mu said generously.

Su Hong was stunned. Many clues ran through his mind. He looked at Qiao Mu, then at the little witch, and frowned.

"But something is wrong. These missing people should not have that kind of depth."

Obviously, the missing rich man did not have much depth in the first place. It was with this information that Su Hong launched an investigation, because this means that the depth of this anomaly is shallow and will affect ordinary people. If it is true as Qiao Mu said , the depth of this thing is much deeper than myself, that is too unreasonable.

"She can't see it either."

Qiao Mu pointed at the little witch who had used up her last three chances.

"It's so evil."

Su Hong murmured.

The little witch turned around with the crying seal doll in her arms and saw Su Hong beside Qiao Mu. She quickly recognized him. After all, he came from abroad to attend the meeting. What did the investigators of the Jiangcheng branch look like? Reviewed.

"Why are your colleagues here? Do you want to play together?"

She asked pretending to be dignified, feeling quite like a little girl meeting her target's parents.

"Are you sure you want to take her with you?"

After Su Hong greeted the little witch, she looked at Qiao Mu again.

"It's okay. If she dies, then I can pinch her again."

Qiao Mu replied matter-of-factly.

"?" "?"

Question marks appeared on both Su Hong and the little witch's heads.

"Isn't it funny?"

Qiao Mu asked back.

"Forget it, she's not deep enough anyway, let's just follow along."

Su Hong held her hand and said, he asked Qiao Mu to take him and the little witch to the street lamp where the "hanging corpse" was.

"right here."

Qiao Mu imitated the man's expression, his eyes widened with a look of horror, his tongue stuck out, as if he was hanging himself.

Su Hong looked up and saw that there were only unlit street lights and no trace of the dead at all.

"What are you looking for?"

The little witch was curious and didn't know what the two were talking about.

Su Hong and Qiao Mu looked at each other and told the little witch the case they were currently looking for.

"What?"

The little witch opened her eyes wide and looked up at the street lamp. There was nothing on it.

"This anomaly has been occurring for some time. There were at least four victims before the case was filed, and there were many more victims after that. What these people have in common is that they are relatively wealthy and generally have their own companies or industries. , and there were financial disputes before his death, so the internal name for this abnormality is "The Capitalist Who Hangs the Street Lamp".

Su Hong explained, looking at the little witch.

"Are there any similar cases to Island Culture?"

"I've never heard of it. It's better to say that there are too many people like this over there. Maybe this anomaly won't be able to handle it at all."

The little witch shook her head.

"Can you show me the information on those missing people?"

Qiao Mu asked, because this was a case that had not yet been concluded, so the relevant integrated information did not appear in the database. It was too troublesome to check one by one, so Qiao Mu chose to be a helper.

"I sent it to you."

Su Hong sent the document to Qiao Mu.

Theoretically, Qiao Mu needs to write an application first, and after Zhou Mingke and Su Hong sign and agree, Su Hong will upload the information, and Qiao Mu will download it.

But there are so many theories about the Chosen One.

Qiao Mu looked at a few of them.

[Song Hengtai, general manager of Hengtai Group, is involved in litigation due to capital turnover issues. He and his son are suspected of being involved in unusual incidents (see [Jiangcheng City Apartment Fire Case] ​​for details). He disappeared from his office and his whereabouts are unknown. 】

[Hao Wei, the founder of Hao Delicious Cake, the company had serious labor disputes and was reported to the newspaper many times. He was suspected to be involved in abnormal events (see [Delicious Cake Case] ​​for details). He disappeared from his home and his whereabouts are unknown. 】

[Money is rich, Chairman of Chuanghui Financial. The company is under investigation by the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the police for suspected economic crimes. He is suspected of being involved in abnormal events (see [Future Investigation] for details). He has disappeared from the company office and his whereabouts are unknown. 】

These are all people Qiao Mu has seen face to face, and there are other missing persons whom Qiao Mu has seen more or less on the street lights.

"What about this guy?"

Qiao Mu searched for the information of the man hanging on the street lamp in front of them and found that his name was Cao Da and he was the general manager of Tengda Leather Factory. In addition to the labor disputes that could be searched on the Internet, he was also suspected of being involved with an anomaly. There is a connection. The anomaly is called [Energy No. 1]. According to the survey results, it can keep people energetic and tireless.

"He took advantage of this anomaly, causing workers to work tirelessly, and finally died suddenly from overwork, and then was punished?"

Su Hong listened to Qiao Mu's description and made a guess based on the information.

"What we can know so far is that in addition to having their own industrial companies, these victims are also more or less related to anomalies. They have either been exposed to other anomalies, or they have been unknowingly exploited or exploited by anomalies."

"It's certainly possible."

Qiao Mu nodded.

"Speaking of which, why are you investigating this anomaly? After all, the people who died seem to have deserved their death, right? Wouldn't it be better to let this anomaly punish these damn rich people more?"

The little witch thought for a while and asked.

"You make a lot of sense."

Qiao Mu praised.

"You can't say that. Although it has nothing to do with legal justice, anomalies that can affect normal people must be investigated clearly, either to limit them or to confirm that they will not harm more people. This is our duty as investigators. Responsibility."

Su Hong spread her hands and said.

Seeing this, Qiao Mu suddenly felt inspired.

"I have a way to investigate why these victims are being targeted by the anomaly."

"What is it?"

Su Hong asked with strange eyes.

"As long as one of us becomes that kind of capitalist, wouldn't it be enough to be hung from a street lamp?"

Qiao Mu replied matter-of-factly.
