Chapter 134: Chapter 132: Kill You Along the Internet Cable

"Death is my friend, if you still have a conscience, please don’t slander him," Lu Jiang replied.

The other side responded, "Ha, did I say that your friend did those things? No. Can you say that the messages I sent are false? No. So why are you still arguing with me?"

Lu Jiang was so enraged he almost choked. The Capital District had over a billion people, every city had its fire department, which had saved countless ordinary people. Yet, you take a few negative cases and tarnish everyone, thinking you can denigrate them?

He began to argue with this anonymous user on principle, but no matter what he said, the person always managed to leave him speechless.

Righteous indignation-Filled bystanders, how could they outtalk a troll who was prepared in advance.

Gradually, bystanders began to believe the slanted logic and specious arguments of the anonymous user, and the direction of the comments section subtly started to shift.

Finally, Lu Jiang couldn’t hold back, he directly tagged the person in the comments section, and said, "I’m right here in the Electrician Road community in Furong River City, come find me, and we can discuss this face to face, or give me an address, and I’ll come to you."

The person responded disdainfully, "Threatening me? I’m so scared. I might just kill you through the internet cable!"

Furious, Lu Jiang immediately turned off the webpage for the news. He couldn’t continue to watch anymore; if he did, he feared he might end up getting a heart attack from his anger.

The anonymous user didn’t care either; he was hoping someone would continue arguing with him indefinitely. The more they argued, the more popular the topic became, and the more money he made.

After calming down, Lu Jiang made a report call.

Martyrs should not be insulted like this, now the Capital District had specific laws protecting martyrs, and he was determined to make the troll suffer the consequences.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Jiang suddenly noticed that his computer screen dimmed sharply, then the whole screen was covered with green grids and bizarre codes.

Lu Jiang frowned, walked forward, and started hitting the monitor forcefully.

From his experience, if a TV was malfunctioning, hitting it a few times usually fixed it, so he thought the computer might be the same.

But quickly, he stopped his striking and his face showed a look of terror because a hand actually reached out from inside the computer.

A hand holding a kitchen knife!

Lu Jiang rubbed his eyes, widened them to look at the hand, and immediately decided to run.

Encountering such a strange phenomenon, he was not foolish enough to stick around to understand what was happening; the further he ran, the better his chances of survival.

But his plan failed, he somehow couldn’t open the door.

He could only watch helplessly as a figure crawled out from the computer.

"I’m coming ... to kill you through the internet cable!"

Afterwards, in that room, there was a bloodbath!

...

Wen Wen, with a toothpick in his mouth, was sitting cross-legged at his work desk, continuously reviewing the documents sent from the Furong River Police Department.

Yes, he now had his own office, and getting access to police records was not as troublesome as before; a simple request was all it took.

All the documents here had also been reviewed by the supporters, but Wen Wen didn’t trust it was enough, he needed to scrutinise everything personally.

The documents in front of him ranged from homicide cases to abnormal gatherings, anything new that had happened recently, Wen Wen looked into it.

He believed that as long as Yan Biqing left traces in Furong River City, clues would definitely be found.

Hunting down Yan Biqing was fraught with many difficulties, but the first step was at least to find his trail; otherwise, if Gao Fang suddenly announced the end on the fifth day, things would turn ugly.

Wen Wen wanted to win this game, but also seize the chance to get rid of that lunatic.

Unfortunately, his authority was limited to examining documents related only to Yan Biqing.

If he could access Gao Fang’s documents, he would certainly make some gains.

With his ostentatious personality, he would definitely leave traces within the Hunters Association.

Although Furong River City is large and many people die every day, the number determined to be homicide cases is not high.

Thus, Wen Wen easily found what he was looking for among these cases.

It was a locked-room murder case.

The only fingerprints found in the victim’s room were his own; there were no signs that anyone else had entered.

The victim was hacked to death, and he had been trying to escape the room throughout the ordeal.

The blood under the door had coagulated, indicating that no one had left the room after the victim’s death...

If it were just this, it might just be considered a bizarre locked-room murder case, but if there were two or three such cases, it was enough to catch Wen Wen’s attention.

The three victims died in completely different ways, but the only commonality was that in all three cases, no one else entered, and at the time, the victims were either using a computer or making a phone call.

Since Yan Biqing’s power was to travel through communication devices, these cases were very likely left by Yan Biqing.

Of course, based on this information alone, it couldn’t yet be concluded that these three murders were committed by Yan Biqing, so Wen Wen needed to investigate personally.

When he arrived at Lu Jiang’s home, he found it had already been sealed off, with several supporters guarding it and preventing outsiders from entering.

He slapped his forehead, realizing that such an obvious clue had been noticed by him, there was no reason the Hunters Association hadn’t noticed it.

Unfortunately, since he had just joined, he was excluded from the task of hunting down Yan Biqing and couldn’t get information in time.

Otherwise, his plan to hunt Yan Biqing could have proceeded more smoothly.

But now Lin Zheyuan and the others were not here; they must have gone to the other two scenes first.

After showing his Demon Hunter credentials to the supporters at the door, Wen Wen easily entered the scene.

"It’s good to be in the organization. Otherwise, I might have had to think up some wicked ideas to come here and take a look."

While grumbling, Wen Wen put on shoe covers and carefully stepped into the room.

The body was still in its original place, and there was almost no place in the room to step; it was covered with broken flesh and blood.

The man had been hacked to death, but no knife was found at the scene.

"Judging by the marks, it should be a kitchen knife... With that depth, only a few slashes would be fatal, but the victim was hacked dozens of times before dying..."

"So the speed of the knife strikes was very fast. It must have been a very short time to deliver so many blows, a speed not possible for an ordinary person."

"Tsk, if I were the one hacking, I definitely wouldn’t hack without any aesthetic sense."

After examining the body, Wen Wen looked at the computer, put on gloves, lightly tapped a few times, and found a news article Lu Jiang had been viewing.

Although it might not be a useful clue, Wen Wen still noted it down.

"There are traces of superpower residue on the screen, it must indeed be Yan Biqing, but with just this bit of information, I can’t track him."

"Forget about finding hair or fingerprints, there’s not even a trace of body odor left. It’s impossible even if I wanted to follow a trace of underwear scent. This is going to be tough to track down..."

Afterwards, Wen Wen thoroughly examined the room, but ultimately found nothing.

In the end, Wen Wen called Lin Zheyuan and compared what they knew. Like him, they couldn’t find any useful clues either.

What can be proven now is that these three people were indeed attacked by Yan Biqing, but why he did it, based on what he chose these three victims, no one knows.

Premeditated murder is not hard to solve. The problem lies in the random killings without any apparent reason.
