Chapter 4 The Mist Fades(2/3)
"Can!"
The two agreed, and Li Hao stopped worrying about it and said quickly: "Sister Na, you have more connections in the Inspection Department than I do. Can you do me a favor?"
"Tell me."
At this moment, Li Hao, because he showed Chen Na the file, no longer hid it, and whispered: "Can you help me check the whereabouts of a few people? The first one is Wang Haoming's brother. He is not in the bank.
In Yincheng City, his only relative is Wang Haoming. After Wang Haoming died, he didn't come back for a long time."
"The second one is Zhao Shihao's daughter! After Zhao Shihao's death, his daughter moved away from Yincheng with his wife, and there is no news about her."
The area that the Yincheng Inspection Department can manage is Yincheng. It has no jurisdiction over other areas, let alone the qualifications for file inquiry.
I looked for Chen Na because Chen Na knew more people in the Inspection Department.
As for the Inspection Department, Li Hao is not familiar with the Inspection Department in the outer city, but there are always other people's colleagues, classmates, and friends who work in the Inspection Department in other places. If he really goes to inquire about it, he can also find out the news.
.
Chen Na's eyes flickered slightly.
Check how many family members of the parties involved?
What does Li Hao mean?
"Sister Na, do you think you can check it?"
Chen Na thought for a while and nodded: "Generally speaking, if there is an area, it will be easier to investigate. I am afraid that there will be no clues. You have to know that outside of Yincheng, the world is huge. We do not have cross-regional law enforcement authority.
If you don’t have the authority to inquire about information, if you ask someone to do it, you have to have a fixed target to ask someone to inquire about it.”
"Understood. I have some information about them. I will write it to you later. Although I don't know the specific location, I still know which city it is in."
Li Hao checked for a long time and had some understanding of the families of the deceased. It was just because they were out of town that Li Hao could not contact them.
"That's easy to handle, leave this matter to me!"
Chen Na happily agreed.
Li Hao quickly thanked him.
The two talked for a while, and Chen Na suddenly lowered her voice and said: "Li Hao, there is something... Anyway, you should pay attention to it! I think... I think this matter may not be simple."
She is not stupid, and she has generally guessed something.
At this moment, Chen Na was thinking, if Li Hao was really the Li in the slang song "The Sword of the Li Family", would he also be in danger?
The Inspection Department is not afraid of danger, but is afraid of danger from unknown sources.
The cases of those few people were all caused by accidents.
Li Hao nodded slightly and said nothing more.
And Li Hao himself has a lot of things to be busy with at the moment and needs to be verified.
He wants to investigate the case 10 years ago. Is anyone from the Zheng family dead?
If circumstances permit, he will go to Zhang Yuan's home. After Zhang Yuan's death, his home will be empty. Li Hao wants to see if the Zhang family's sword is still there?
Not only the swords of the Zhang family, but also the hammers of the Hong family and the guns of the Zhou family. Do these weapons in slang exist? Do they still exist?
Is it the people of the Eighth Family that Hongying is eyeing, or the weapons of the Eighth Family in Liqu?
Needless to say about fists and kicks, if a person dies, then there is nothing.
But if the weapons are really inherited by each family, like the Li family, if they are passed down as heirlooms, some clues may be found.
Only by determining Hongying's purpose and understanding the other party better can we better deal with the crisis.
…
Li Hao did not go directly to Zhang's house, nor did he go home. He had other things to do.
Inspection Department.
Archives.
Aunt Zhao, who manages the archives, moved a pile of information from the dusty warehouse, dusted it, and raised a cloud of gray mist.
He handed the yellowed information to Li Hao and said a little strangely: "Xiao Hao, what do you want these for? From 1715 to 1719, the names of the Zhengs who died and had their accounts canceled in Yincheng are all here. There must be a few hundred people in total.
But everyone has been dead for many years..."
Li Hao's face was filled with an innocent smile, "Sister Zhao, there are some mysterious cases in the confidential room that involve these. I can't go into details. You were troubled and I found the clues later. I'll treat you to a meal."
"Forget it about eating, Xiao Hao, you are already 20 years old, so you are not young at all. My daughter is 22 this year, which is two years older than you..."
"..."
Li Hao was a little helpless, but still kept smiling: "Sister Zhao, let's talk later, I'm still young."
With that said, he took the file and left quickly, looking a bit embarrassed.
The aunts in the inspection department are very enthusiastic, but they are not very good at this. They like to introduce their daughters to him.
Either a daughter, a niece, or a girl from so and so.
Who allowed him, Li Hao, to pass the Yincheng Ancient Academy? Even though he dropped out, it still didn't hinder his popularity.
Li Hao got the list and quickly looked through it.
There is not much list of several hundred people, and the cause of death is generally introduced. This is the account cancellation list. Next, Li Hao has to exclude some of them and combine them with some other information to determine whether there are any Zheng family members he wants to find.
The best result is naturally to be directly introduced and die by self-immolation. That is the best and most convenient.
Li Hao finally discovered that Hong Ying kills people, or if there is any force behind Hong Ying, they kill people, direct descendants of the eight families or solemn children, and they all use self-immolation to kill people.
If this were not the case, Li Hao would not be able to target the first few people.
There may be some secrets hidden in this, which Li Hao cannot find out yet.
"There was a self-immolation case in 1720, and then another in 1723, so the previous time should be equal or longer and longer. The most likely case is that the person died before 1717."
Li Hao watched as he walked. He had to make sure whether this member of the Zheng family was dead.
If he dies, it means that his previous guesses were correct.
If they are not dead... then if the Zheng family is alive, it is not without gain. If the other party is alive, it may provide Li Hao with more clues. He even thinks that it is better for the Zheng family to be alive, which is likely to be directly related to Hongying.
.
"In the slang song, it is sung about the young master of the Zheng family being a hindrance, which is different from other songs... Maybe the Zheng family is also a little different."
Just as he was thinking about it, Li Hao turned to a page.
"Zheng Yunqi, died on September 12, 1715, cause of death: gas explosion..."
Li Hao's eyes suddenly became sharp. Was there a gas explosion?
In this case, when you die, you may die without a complete body, which is very similar to death by self-immolation.
And this way of death is not too noticeable.
"is it him?"
Li Hao murmured, "If the gas explodes, more than one person may die. In this case, the Zheng family can even take care of it all at once!"
Looking through these hundreds of lists, this person is most likely to be from the Zheng family in Slang.
"Maybe... you can go and have a look."
Li Hao thought, it contained the other party's address. Of course, it was hard to say whether that place would still be there 15 years later.
Today, Chen Na's slang song gave Li Hao a lot of clues in an instant.
In my mind, the key to this self-immolation case gradually became clear.
If this Zheng Yunqi is the Zheng family member Li Hao is looking for, then among the eight surnames, he may be still alive.
"Revenge? Or something else?"
"Is Hong Ying artificially raised, or does it have a special ability, or is it just a deception?"
Li Hao touched the jade sword on his chest again. Is this ancestral jade sword just a simple family heirloom, or does it have some other function?
"Everyone from the Seven Families is dead, so I must be the next one. How did the other party find me and the others? There is nothing special about us. Why can Hongying target us?"
The crisis of death seems to be approaching gradually.
At this moment, Li Hao already felt that a storm was coming. He quickly checked the communicator in his hand. He wanted to find out which day had been rainy recently. According to the time rules, the next rainy day might be when the red shadow appeared.
.
"July 18th, Yin!"
Li Hao's expression changed slightly. Today is the 12th, and the weather will be good in the next few days. It will turn cloudy on the 18th, and it will be rainy for a while.
"In other words, at the earliest, the red shadow may appear again in six days? Even if it is not six days, the other party may appear in the next rainy days."
At this moment, Li Hao's heart seemed to be clenched!
Before, he was not sure whether the other party was looking for him and whether he would be the next target. But at this moment, he was very sure that Hongying's next target was himself.
"Xiaoyuan finally asked me to escape. Does it mean that he also guessed it, or learned from Hongying that I will be killed next?"
To be continued...
