"Unlocked?" Aaron tried pushing the door handle of the white classical wooden door, and the door opened directly.

The guard dog outside was out of control, so no one could easily approach the villa, but the door inside was unlocked. The increasingly ominous atmosphere made Aaron swallow his mouth and spit. Zhou Yuqing walked around Aaron, who was hesitant to walk.

Entering the foyer, I used echolocation to scan the general interior of this independent villa.

"How?" Aaron asked, knowing what she was doing.

"There is no such situation so far." Echo detection is not a panacea. Some technical materials can offset such detections. More detailed on-site investigation still needs to be done by the detectives themselves.

The two cautiously began to enter the villa. There was an unbearable old-fashioned atmosphere everywhere in the room - this photo frame should be placed here, that pan should be hung there, and all the furnishings seemed to be in a natural state.

, but it is difficult for people to have a sense of intimacy that "someone has lived here".

"The owner here suffers from obsessive-compulsive disorder that should be hospitalized." Zhou Yuqing, who walked around the entire villa and observed the interior furnishings since entering, commented.

"In the records, Kang Caien lives alone, right?" Aaron asked.

"Yes. Thirty-two years ago, he and his pregnant wife were attacked by a suicide bomb launched by refugees in Bonn. He managed to survive, but his wife died beside him. Then he immigrated to Jincheng, a place with relatively good security.

In the past twelve years, he has no intention of renewing his relationship, and there is no record of close contact with other members of the opposite sex. It may be that his wife's death in front of him left him with severe psychological trauma." Zhou Yuqing thought about his transfer from the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Information.

"That's weird." Aaron suddenly raised his eyebrows and said.

"What?" Zhou Yuqing was stunned, not knowing what Aaron was talking about.

"I'm talking about cups and plates." Aaron pointed toward the kitchen counter, "There are two sets of cups on the table in the living room, and there are also two sets of tableware in the kitchen. Don't you think it's strange?"

"Perhaps he just wants to have more spare parts, or to maintain the habitual state for a long time when his wife was still alive?" Zhou Yuqing tried to analyze the mental state of the house owner.

"No, I just looked at the toilet and bathroom specifically. There is only one set of toiletries inside, and other things used in daily life are also prepared according to one set. You just said that the people who live here have obsessive-compulsive disorder.

, how could he tolerate such a mistake?" Aaron shook his head and rejected Zhou Yuqing's guess.

"That is to say, there is only one person living here, but this person often entertains other people and forms a habit?" Zhou Yuqing is quite accomplished in psychology and immediately understood Aaron's hint.

"I suspect this person is the person we are looking for." Aaron came to the kitchen counter and moved two cups. "The mark left by one cup on the plate is much lighter than that of the other, indicating that the habit has been developed recently.

They are not old friends who have been with each other for a long time."

"Check the fingerprints and genetic residues first... Well, sure enough, there are none, as expected." Zhou Yuqing's terminal comes with a lot of criminal investigation equipment, "It is probably difficult to find residues that can be used for detection in this room."

"Yes, the master has a morbid mysophobia." Aaron sighed helplessly, "I've looked at all the rooms, but I didn't see anything more. Did you gain anything?"

"We haven't read everything." Zhou Yuqing, who was staring at the wall in a daze, suddenly came back to his senses and said.

"?" Aaron turned back and waited for her next words.

"While moving around the villa, I have been trying to connect to the smart housekeeper of this house. After all, it is difficult to keep the entire villa spotless without integrating the housekeeping system. This system is very thorough for the homeowner to encrypt." Zhou Yuqing

Smiling, the sound of gears and bearings rotating suddenly came from the corridor outside.

"Does this house have a basement?" Aaron quickly went out to check and saw that a floor in the corridor had lifted up on its own, and the cold air was leaking out from the deep stairway below the floor.

"And it's not within the normal structure diagram." Zhou Yuqing walked out of the kitchen and added, "After cracking the entire system, I discovered that there was a tiny redundant data flow, although its existence was well concealed.

, this data flow will divert the entire house's current flow, so it is impossible to completely separate from the housekeeping system."

"Huh, whatever is hidden is definitely not good." Aaron bared his teeth and smiled, "Let's see what treasures there are down there."

After taking a few steps down, Aaron began to hate his curiosity. The things in the basement were far beyond his imagination.

Countless photos cover the walls and ceiling of the basement. In these photos, without exception, there is the same European-American white woman. Some are photos of her alone, and some are accompanied by a man. Aaron can

It was easy to recognize the shadow of Concern's past on that man's face.

If this scene is not breathtaking enough, then the several humanoid terminals still in motion on the sofa at the end of the basement made Aaron shudder especially, because these terminals all have the same appearance, and they surround and protect a biochemical computer.

The brain in the jar seems as if the owner of the brain is still conscious.

"No need for me to explain who this woman is, right?" Zhou Yuqing looked around and sighed.

"Kang Caien's deceased wife." Aaron really didn't know how to comment on what he saw. A person's obsession could be twisted to such an extent.

"Do you think he was forced to put it in the jar or did he seek it out on his own initiative?" Zhou Yuqing asked again.

"Oh, unless the murderer deliberately staged this scene to mislead our investigation, it is not difficult to guess whether Mr. Concern will choose a bullshit world that cruelly takes away his beloved, or choose to go to the virtual world and have a long-standing relationship with him.

Let's spend the rest of our lives together with our deceased wife." Aaron smiled a little bitterly.

"So our Mr. Kang Caien, like Mr. Gao Ming, was bewitched by the dreamer to accept certain conditions in exchange for the promise of escaping from reality. I hinted to you that Lu Qiuyue was a murderer to some extent.

Are you also covering up the dreamer?" Zhou Yuqing sighed towards the brain suspended in the biochemical tank with a complicated expression.

"In this way, the direct connection between the dreamer and the stolen chip is established. Those who can be bribed will use bribery. Those who cannot be bribed will be assigned terminals to monitor or even kill them. He is just a means.

A smarter murderer." Aaron didn't feel Zhou Yuqing's complicated emotions and even seemed a little happy.

"Don't be too hasty to make a conclusion. We still have to conduct a comprehensive search and evidence collection at the scene before we can make a formal judgment." Aaron's eagerness to blame the case on the dream maker made Zhou Yuqing frown, even though he knew that Aaron and

The festival between the dream makers also understands his mood. As a field investigator, it is not a good thing to have a preconceived attitude.

"Look at that head, do we need any other evidence?" Aaron rolled his eyes nonchalantly, but followed Zhou Yuqing's suggestion to investigate the scene.

Unlike the spotless one above, the basement is full of traces of Concern's genes, and cleaned blood stains were detected on the ground. It can be inferred that Concern's brain removal surgery should have been performed in this basement. There are no locked doors or mechanical dog abnormalities outside.

Perhaps they were all traces left by the dreamer when he left. However, the terminals with the appearance of Kang Caien's wife did not show any aggression. Zhou Yuqing repeatedly checked and confirmed that except for some personalization, these machines had nothing on them.

Any hands or feet.

Of course, they failed to record any clues about the dreamer. Concern didn't seem to want anyone to touch this side of himself. There were no other human images besides Concern in the stored memories of several machines. They were Concern's exclusive dolls.

"Uncle Ling, have you found anything over there?" When he was about to complete the on-site investigation, Aaron received a call from Ling Chong.

"The station where Jin Yuchang is located has lost sixty sets of armed components. There are long-range and close-range weapons in the sky and on the ground. Where are you?" Ling Chong's voice sounded a little tired and anxious.
