Chapter 73: Go Again

"?" The hostess looked at Lan Tian in confusion and turned her queer look at Aaron, as if asking the other party what the meaning of this question was.

"I am just a technical person, unlike him. When I was worshiping your husband, I accidentally discovered that there were some problems with your system, so I checked it casually." Lan Tian smiled slightly and did not announce his identity, but made up a lie temporarily.

"It is indeed a few days ago that the municipal department sent a terminal that was watching the streets outside to help with the repairs, but it was already half a year ago that I reported the repairs. After the repairs, the thing was not very useful. If it weren't for the need to support my daughter's life support system, I would have turned off the outdated thing long ago." After reluctantly accepting Lan Tian's explanation, the hostess replied with some grumbling.

"?!" As soon as this statement was said, Aaron immediately realized that something was wrong. Huo Qi suddenly lost control when he passed by a cleaning terminal belonging to the municipal department. Moreover, the terminal whose head was almost broken also detected a well-disguised trigger Trojan after careful investigation.

"If the wife allows it, do you want me to help adjust the system?" Lan Tian continued to fool the hostess with a calm expression.

"I don't have any objection... Are you really okay?" The hostess looked at Lan Tian half-believingly. After all, she really didn't look like a reliable engineer.

"Of course, this simple system is a piece of cake. I just feel itchy when I see broken things." Lan Tian smiled confidently, "Give me five minutes."

"Since that's the case, please take care of yourself." The hostess was still very hesitant and turned her attention to Aaron, who looked quite reliable.

"She is the best skilled person in our bureau. You can rest assured that even if it is not done well, it will definitely not be broken." Aaron had to smile bitterly and help Lan Tian lie.

She didn't see Lan Tian doing any extra moves. She just stared at the main receiver of the system that happened to be above Huo Qi's portrait for a few minutes. Then, the cleaning drone nest inside the wall, which had not been started for a long time, suddenly emitted a jerky mechanical noise. The sweeper with a round appearance crawled out from inside and began to clean the ground.

"It's really repaired?!" The hostess was shocked by this. "This thing has been broken for more than half a year. Those who were invited to repair it before suggested that I replace the entire system directly, saying that it was too aging."

"It's true that the aging is serious. This system has exceeded its design service life." Lantian first acknowledged the evaluation of other maintenance workers. "However, the main reason for the system not operating normally is to get infected with the virus. As long as the control program is restored to normal, it should be able to hold on for a while until physical damage is done."

"Thank you so much. This is probably the first good thing since my husband passed away." The hostess forced a smile on her face and thanked Lan Tian.

"I can only do that. Have you finished talking over there?" Lan Tian waved his hand and said that there was no need, and asked the two of them again.

"I have asked everything I should ask, so we will not waste your time anymore." Knowing that Lan Tian was hinting that he would leave, Aaron immediately answered.

"I'll give you two." After all, I just received help, and the hostess treated the two more politely than before.

"So, let me guess it right?" Aaron couldn't wait to ask after leaving Huo Qi's house.

"Ah, guess right." Lan Tian nodded, "When I worshipped the portrait of the deceased, I should have triggered a special designated condition. The housekeeping service system tried to invade my firewall and implant the same type of Trojan horse into my mind. Fortunately, my firewall was a version I improved myself, and if the official version was really unaware of. In addition, I also noticed traces of human destruction in this system, and someone deliberately made this system partially invalid."

"Maybe we should go to the Municipal Engineering Department to check out. The public terminals there are very problems." Aaron has decided on the next investigation target.

"Don't you need to go to Detective Huo's office to check it out? The lady just mentioned that her husband was doing things for the police, right?" Lan Tian asked.

"The office doesn't have to go. The last time Uncle Ling and I went there, I turned it over. Even if Detective Huo really acted as an informant for any police officer, he obviously did not leave enough records as evidence, but..." Aaron touched his chin, "We can go to another place to go, and the people there may know something."

The place Aaron remembered was also what he learned and sold. This was the detective agency that Ling Chong brought him to. The two of them drove to the hall and just walked into the hall, a familiar figure caught him up.

"Sir Chen, it would be too unfaithful to leave me alone in the ninth district. If Boss Yu hadn't sent someone to send me out, I would have to feed the people on Kaiyang Street." The guy who was entangled was Frank, who was forgotten by Aaron and the others yesterday, because the situation was so sudden that everyone ignored this irrelevant guy.

"If you want to be loyal, don't you run very quickly when you left us?" Aaron rolled his eyes directly.

"Yes, I did something wrong at that time. At that time, I still did things for the two superiors. Now I offended all the people I can offend, but today I still didn't move the previous case and fines. You two want to pay a debt, right?" It turns out that Frank was desperately pestering Aaron and still came to ask for salary.

"The case was not erased? Ah, I understand what's going on." Ah Long was stunned and then reacted.

"?" Frank looked at Aaron's reaction in confusion.

"When Officer Ling agreed to help you cancel the case, he has now been removed from all his powers, so the operations he authorized should not be executed. This is not an accident caused by our debts but a force majeure." Aaron explained.

"What should I do then? Otherwise, Chief Chen, would you do it for me?" Frank did not ask Ling Chong how it was. He only cared about whether he could get paid.

"I am a member of the Administration Bureau and can only help you save the case of the Administration Bureau. Do you have many criminal records in the Administration Bureau?" Aaron's identity came in handy at this time. He is no longer a policeman in terms of law.

"Of course I owe more to the police station..." Frank scratched his head depressedly. He probably didn't expect that a simple task would cause these changes in the end.

"If you really want to get the reward, why don't you continue to help me. When I erase the suspicion on Officer Ling, your case will be eliminated, otherwise don't delay my work." Aaron waved at Frank like a fly, and then walked straight to the reception terminal at the front desk, "We are here to meet Manager Lu."

"I have notified Manager Lu, please take the elevator there to the fourth floor." The reception terminal gave a brief reply.

I met Lu Qingqiu all the way, and the broker who was about to become fat immediately greeted Aaron with an old friend's attitude.

"Sir Chen, do you need anything?" Lu Qingqiu said with a smile.

"Officer Ling was dismissed and detained yesterday." Ah Long didn't say nonsense, and he spoke directly into the topic.

"...Is the reason?" Lu Qingqiu looked surprised, but his reaction was very calm.

"Suspected murder." Aaron gave a short answer, observing how Lu Qingqiu reacted to this.

"Murder? Lao Ling could not do such a thing." Unexpectedly, Lu Qingqiu directly refuted this statement, "I know best what kind of person he is. If you say that excessive defense should lead to death, I believe it, but committing murder is definitely not his behavior."

"It seems that you two are really old friends." Lu Qingqiu's firm attitude made Aaron relieved, "I came to you to clear his suspicion."

"If you have anything I can help you, just say it." Lu Qingqiu said with his chest.

"It's still about Huo Qi. Do you know that he has cooperated with the police?" Aaron asked.

"Police?" Lu Qingqiu frowned when he heard this. "At least to the extent I know, he has not cooperated directly with the police. If you are sure that he has indeed had some contact with the police, it is very likely that he has a private contact with a separate police officer like me, but this informal and unrecorded cooperative relationship is difficult to be known by outsiders."

"If I want to find out who is the other end of this private contact, do you have any good ideas to suggest?" Aaron asked again.

"I don't have a good solution, but I know one of the stupid solutions." Lu Qingqiu thought for a while and replied.
