Courtyard House: Why is my time-travel experience so shabby?

Chapter 1074 Familiar yet unfamiliar malice

In the afternoon on Hong Kong Island, the wind was howling.

Baishawan Villa, in the living room.

Du Weiguo sat quietly on the sofa, holding a cigarette in his hand but forgetting to smoke it.

Amidst the rising smoke, he frowned slightly and was deep in thought. There was a thick pile of files in front of him.

Combined with the case details and clues told to him by Lu Yan, Uncle Jiu, and Xiao Liao, combined with the files and photos of the scene.

Du Weiguo can now roughly outline it. The basic profile of this serial murderer, known as "the devil".

First of all, there is no doubt that this guy is a master, a very rare knife master in this era. Of course, it is not ruled out that he is good at other cold weapons.

Although the injured parts of all the victims and the angles at which the blades penetrated were different, they were all killed with one blow, never a second blow.

Sophisticated, sharp and ruthless!

Under Du Weiguo, Mao Aiyi, a former ninja warrior, is also an extremely rare master of cold weapons, but she also bluntly said that she is not as good as the murderer.

In fact, when he first heard about this case, Du Weiguo was slightly suspicious of her.

After all, Japanese people have always had a strange brain circuit, and their loyalty to their masters is often a bit fanatical. They are prone to extreme actions and have the motive to commit crimes.

Moreover, she is also proficient in some unique methods of ninja. If she is well prepared, there is a certain possibility that she will be able to kill without any clues, just like a ghost killing someone.

However, this idea only passed by in a flash and was rejected by Du Weiguo.

Although Mao Aiyi is considered a master, she is at best on par with Uncle Jiu, and her methods are certainly not as good as Uncle Jiu's authentic Xuanmen's Qimen Dunjia method.

The decisive point was that she could not kill an agent silently in front of Lu Yan within a distance of 30 meters.

Not to mention, she had to hide it from Ye Li. The cats and dogs had incredible sense of smell. They were not pets, but demons that had become spirits!

Getting back to the subject, secondly, this "fierce ghost" is most likely a person with abilities. Du Weiguo seriously doubts that this guy has extremely rare invisible powers.

Not only can it hide your figure, but it can even seal the pores on your body, isolating your own body fluids and odor, which is really awesome.

Thinking of this, Du Weiguo couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, tsk, this is invisibility, almost as good as teleportation, and the most incomprehensible assassination ability.

However, with such a dazzling ability, the idiot "Li Gui" is only used to harm ordinary people.

In fact, Du Weiguo also has the opportunity to become invisible.

After all, there are several pig-faced visors from the Predator lying in his space, as well as annihilation cannons, mechanical fish and other alien black technologies.

Not to mention anything else, he once took out the pig-face visor and quietly tested it, but couldn't find the method. This thing looked rough, but in fact it was sophisticated and most likely used black technology such as neural connections.

I don’t know if the research institute in Kuiana is on the right track. Can they start researching and deciphering these things?

When all the nonsense that happened recently in Hong Kong Island, Japan, Wanwan, and Mao Xiong is over, I will have to build some technology trees.

You know, there is an infinite universe beyond the earth!

Damn, I’m off topic again. Next, let’s talk about the motive of the “violent ghost”.

Although Uncle Jiu and Lu Yan were conclusive, they all agreed that this lunatic was a fanatical admirer of Du Weiguo, and that the murder was to take revenge on the four major families, in order to settle his injustice and help him vent his anger.

Logically speaking, this statement barely makes sense.

However, Du Weiguo was still unconvinced by this statement. Although he could not come up with any valid opinions or evidence to refute it for the time being, he just instinctively felt that something was wrong.

how to say? If this lunatic is really fighting for him and taking action against the four major families, then based on his incredible ability, the current situation is really too childish.

Although the serial murders he concocted were horrifying enough, they did not cause much harm to the four major families.

Because he killed ordinary employees, the four major families could have thousands of such employees on Hong Kong Island, and even more if workers were included.

Not to mention just a few dozen dead, even if a few hundred died, it wouldn't hurt the root cause.

Putting it into perspective, if Du Weiguo were him and had this ability, he would be able to assassinate the senior leaders of the four families, their relatives, and even Huo Xian himself.

What this guy did was more like a plan and purpose, deliberately making people think that he was the instigator behind the scenes, so as to sow discord between him and the four major families.

The last one was summarized by Xiao Liao and related clues about the crime scene.

All crime scenes, although they look messy, are actually not far from bus stops.

Among them, there were 7 scenes on bus route 20, 5 crime scenes occurred near route 16, and several others were located near the routes of Kowloon minibuses.

Therefore, Xiao Liao's point of view is that the murderer probably took a bus to and from the crime scene. This discovery is very critical.

Currently, there are more than 30 bus lines on Hong Kong Island and less than 2000 buses and minibuses. The number is quite limited, which means that the scope of the investigation has been suddenly narrowed.

If this hypothesis is true, then all bus drivers at the time will be investigated based on the time and location of the crime.

Presumably something will be gained, and the murderer's appearance can even be directly identified.

Uncle Jiu was extremely excited about this discovery. He left in a hurry immediately and personally organized a visit to inspect the bus.

In this regard, Du Weiguo was not optimistic, preferring others over himself. If this person could become invisible and could use a knife, he would be a master.

Even if he really used the bus as a means of transportation to commit the crime, as long as his mind is not sick, he will definitely not be exposed.

However, one thing is certain, this guy is indeed powerful, and he has indeed caused a great negative impact on Hong Kong Island, and has even affected the prosperity and stability of the market.

In addition, Du Weiguo had an inexplicable slap on his head, which made his already stinky reputation even more stinky, and his rift with the four major families became even greater.

Du Weiguo said he couldn't accept this grievance, so no matter what the murderer's original intention was? They must be stopped as soon as possible.

"Dengdengdeng~"

A burst of hurried footsteps interrupted Du Weiguo's meditation, and it was Xiao Liao who quickly ran in from outside.

With a relatively clear direction of investigation, Uncle Jiu left, and even the police commissioner left with his senior officials, but Xiao Liao did not hesitate and resolutely stayed.

His gesture was very obvious, but Du Weiguo followed his lead and held his thigh tightly without letting go.

Of course, what Xiao Liao did was not in vain. He made the right bet. Du Weiguo saw and approved of his statement.

Xiao Liao stood out from the bottom patrol police. He has outstanding professional ability and has always been practical in his work. The key is that he knows how to measure, knows how to advance and retreat, is not pedantic, and has a clear stance. He is very worthy of training.

Du Weiguo had already made up his mind to wait for the matter to be over and informed Raina who was far away in London. He gave Xiao Liao a push and gave him the position of Chief Inspector of a large district in Hong Kong Island.

This matter is a piece of cake for Reina, who is now in the small cabinet.

Unknowingly, Du Weiguo has become a big shot who can decide the life and death of others based on his preferences, and can cover the sky with one hand. The dragon-slaying warrior in the past has finally become an evil dragon.

Xiao Liao was slightly out of breath from running, but his words were very clear:

"Mr. Wesley, Mr. Lu Yan, we have just received news that another murder occurred 30 minutes ago near Hang Seng Building in Kwun Tong. Judging from the method of committing the crime, it was a single stabbing. He must have done it."

This "he" is naturally the serial murderer codenamed "Li Gui".

Upon hearing this, Du Weiguo smiled, raised his brows slightly, raised his hand and looked at his watch:

"Good guy! It's four o'clock in the afternoon and it's still daylight. This guy is really acting unscrupulously. He's even more pissy than I was before!"

Then he put out his cigarette, turned his head and looked at Lu Yan with a smile, his tone teasing:

"Lu Yan, you said that this lunatic is a fanatical supporter of mine, and he is killing people to vent his anger on the four major families. So, according to your logic, he should have known that he acted in the daytime uncharacteristically this time. I have returned to Hong Kong and you are killing people specifically to pay tribute to me?”

Upon hearing this, Lu Yan's old face suddenly turned red.

Others also felt that it was a bit unreasonable for "Li Gui" to suddenly take action in broad daylight, especially after Du Weiguo's grand return.

After all, no matter how evil he was in the past, the cases always happened at night, but he had a tough-tongued character, so naturally he would not give in easily, so he said firmly:

"Who the hell knows? Most people can't understand the world of madmen. Maybe this guy got even more excited when he heard that you were back?"

"Ha~"

Du Weiguo sneered and was too lazy to argue with him. He stood up and patted Xiao Liao on the shoulder: "Let's go and see the scene."

20 minutes later, in Kwun Tong, 200 meters straight away from Hang Seng Building, there was a tea restaurant named Hutchison.

At this moment, the place was surrounded by countless uniformed police.

This restaurant is not big, about 70 square meters, with only one floor and a relatively regular rectangular shape. As soon as you enter the door, you can see a woman lying prone on the ground.

He was well-dressed and slightly chubby. There was a small vertical wound on the back of his heart. There was already a large pool of dark red blood under his body, and the fishy smell was pungent.

"The deceased, Xu Fengjiao, was 35 years old, a social news editor at Shaw Brothers Radio. She came to Kwun Tong today to visit Lou Feng secretly, and was suddenly killed while taking a break for afternoon tea.

It was initially concluded that the deceased was stabbed through the heart from behind. There were more than a dozen diners at the scene, but no one found the murderer and there was no suspect. "

As soon as he arrived at the scene, a young police officer walked up to Du Weiguo and introduced the situation at the scene and the victim's information.

He is a plainclothes agent under Xiao Liao. His tone is barely calm, and he has collected information well, but there is a look of fear in his eyes that cannot be concealed.

In broad daylight, in full view of the public, people kill people invisible. Chinese people have always believed in the theory of ghosts and gods. With such a strange scene, anyone can easily think of it as evil spirits killing people.

"Hmm~"

Du Weiguo nodded noncommittally, and then his eyes passed over the young police officer and landed on the victim's body and the ground.

"No need to look, every crime scene is the same, traces and footprints are all over the place, nothing can be seen, and the murder weapon is different every time.

It seems that the knife he used this time should be an ox ear boning knife, 7 inches long, with a blade less than 2 inches. Backhand, it just passed through the third rib and pierced the heart vertically. "

Lu Yan's faint voice sounded behind Du Weiguo.

He himself is considered a top master of cold weapons, and his eyesight is extraordinary. He can also see what Du Weiguo can see.

He was right. The tea restaurant was originally a public place, with people coming and going and footprints overlapping each other. It was extremely complicated.

When the deceased was murdered, the diners and shop assistants present were panicked. Some people came to check, some ran away, some people with good faith from outside came in to check, and some were even frightened and vomited, causing all traces of the scene to be completely destroyed.

Even with Du Weiguo's piercing eyes, which could even see through, he still couldn't see any clues.

Du Weiguo did not speak, but took a few steps forward, walked behind the body, and carefully observed her body shape and wounds.

After a few seconds, Du Weiguo walked to the dining table in front of the corpse, suddenly stretched out his hand, and stabbed the void with his backhand.

"Lu Yan, this is how the murderer took action, right?"

Lu Yan nodded: "Well, that's right, that's it."

Du Weiguo retracted his hand, glanced at the wound on the body again, and confirmed the angle at which the blade entered the body:

"Judging from the angle of penetration, this guy should be very tall, at least 180cm."

"Not necessarily~" Lu Yan came over, stood next to Du Weiguo, stretched out his arm, and twisted his wrist to explain:

"What if he deliberately twisted his wrist downwards or raised the soles of his feet when he took out the knife, it would cause this piercing angle."

Du Weiguo raised his eyebrows:

"Lu Yan, do you think this madman who has no scruples and kills people openly in broad daylight and who can most likely become invisible will deliberately hide his habitual knife-wielding skills?"

Lu Yan was silent for a while and agreed with Du Weiguo's judgment:

"Well, Wesley, you're right, I think it's complicated. This guy is so crazy that he really won't hide it on purpose.

From this point of view, this guy is indeed not short. Considering the fatal wounds of past victims, his height is at least 180cm, or even higher. "

"No!" Unexpectedly, Du Weiguo shook his head again: "Lu Yan, have you ever thought about another possibility?"

Lu Yan frowned: "What's the possibility?"

Du Weiguo stared at the corpse on the ground and said word by word:

"This guy is hanging in the air and his feet don't touch the ground, so he can leave no traces and make you think it's a ghost."

Du Weiguo had already suspected it. Previously, Lu Yan passed by the murderer at a distance of 30 meters.

With his perverted eyesight, even if he didn't discover the identity of the murderer, he should still have found some traces anyway.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yan's eyes suddenly flashed, and he murmured in a low voice with a solemn expression:

"I am a master of swordsmanship. Not only can I become invisible and suppress my scent, but I can also fly? Wesley, isn't this a bit too mysterious?"

Du Weiguo smacked his lips and patted Lu Yan on the shoulder:

"It's a bit mysterious, but if you think about it carefully, it's not too much. The blood beast I met can not only fly, but it can also teleport. It's a lot more evil than now. I'm also surprised. No wonder."

Lu Yan thought about it for a while and then said in a deep voice:

"So, Wesley, are you saying that this serial killer is a top-notch super with multiple abilities?"

Du Weiguo did not speak immediately, but turned around and left the scene of the crime, took out his cigarette case and lit a cigarette, saying in a calm tone:

"That's my initial judgment."

Lu Yan took out a cigarette from his cigarette case and exhaled the smoke in a long breath:

"Wesley, if it's as you analyzed, a top player like him shouldn't be unknown, right?"

Du Weiguo suddenly looked far away at the horizon, and his tone became a little melancholy:

"Lu Yan, actually from the first time you told me about this case, I sensed something was wrong. This guy is definitely a habitual criminal who kills many people.

He suddenly appeared on Hong Kong Island to cause trouble, killing people without restraint, and pointed at me secretly, which made me feel a malice that was both familiar and unfamiliar. "

Du Weiguo wasn't talking nonsense. He had felt this way when he first received Lu Yan's request for help. Someone must be deliberately targeting him again.

Moreover, the opponent seems to be an insidious chess player, setting up a very big game to destroy his foundation from the source.

Although Du Weiguo was forced to leave Hong Kong by the four major families, these four families were his strongest allies in Hong Kong Island.

Although most of the cooperation was terminated because of the bad things that happened in the past, they still have a mutually supportive relationship.

If we belong to the same interest group, if something goes wrong, we won't sit idly by and ignore it.

Another point that is also very important is that Huo Xian and the others will take the initiative to avoid conflicts and competition and give Zhao Yingnan the green light, so that she can go smoothly.

If the four major families turn against Du Weiguo, then his property in Hong Kong Island will become completely alone, unable to move forward, and sooner or later he will be out of business.

Damn, this feeling of being forced onto the chessboard again made Du Weiguo extremely unhappy.

Lu Yan's brows furrowed so tightly that they almost oozed water:

"So, you mean, there is an old silver coin playing a big game of chess? And this powerful serial killer is just a pawn in his hand?"

Du Weiguo nodded: "Although it sounds a bit incredible, that's what I think."
