In addition to Officer Chen, others had also recognized Xiang Kun from the various prank videos circulating online.
At noon, Yang Jie came out of the school laboratory, mulling over things while preparing to go to the dining hall, when her phone suddenly emitted a notification sound.
The message was from her younger brother Yang Zhuo: 揑 have found my idol!!
Yang Jie was baffled, her little brother抯 idol? As a child, it seemed to be
Ultraman, and during middle school, it was Ronaldo, Lei Jun, Quentin
Tarantino? He wouldn抰 be able to find the latter three, could it be that he had bought an Ultraman toy? He was all grown-up now
However, shortly after, Yang Jie saw the message her little brother sent, which was a video.
The video was short, and after contemplating the amount of data it would consume, Yang Jie still hit the play button, then saw a video of a bald -headed man cooking, and the soundtrack was clearly cut from a movie抯 dialogue.
揈h? Isn抰 this the fortune teller? Yang Jie immediately recognized him as one of the two 揺ccentrics she and her friend Zhang Qian had encountered at the bar, who used fortune telling as an excuse to strike up a conversation.
What was his name? Yang Kun? No, it seemed to be Xiang Kun.
Then she immediately remembered not long ago, when her little brother Yang Zhuo went to the same bar, they ran into the bald bespectacled man again.
At that time, Xiang Kun抯 rendition of the song Big Husband by Jacky Cheung garnered applause from the bar patrons. It was quite infectious and when she and Yang Zhuo went over to say hello, Xiang Kun demonstrated his incredible reasoning and observation skills by discerning their sibling relationship based on some details. Subsequently, he defended his conflicted companion and left, showing a kind of terseness accompanied by toughness which awed the college-freshman Yang Zhuo, making him exclaim 搃dol?
Although Yang Jie scoffed at Yang Zhuo抯 habit of casually claiming idols, she couldn抰 deny that Xiang Kun, the 揻ortune teller, always surprised and earned her admiration.
The first time she met him at the bar, she thought this was a guy who was fooling around and trying to pick up girls and was just a bit clever and capable of some tricks. The second time she saw him, she thought this was a very sentimental person who could sing that song so well, and was probably smarter than she and Zhang Qian imagined. However, before he left with his companion, the confrontation in the bar with the young people brought out a tough demeanor born from various life experiences.
Now, seeing the video that her little brother sent via WeChat, Yang Jie felt a strong comedic vibe, this guy really was versatile.
揧ou need to focus on your classes, not watching random videos!
揝is! It抯 mealtime right now!
揟hen just focus on eating your meal during mealtime!
After scolding her brother a few times on the pretext of his preoccupation with the video, Yang Jie didn抰 close the chat window but scrolled up in the chat history and forwarded the video of Xiang Kun to Zhang Qian, along with a side-eye laughing emoji.
揋uess what I found online?
After discussing with Officer Chen about the 揷onsultancy company case, Xiang Kun couldn抰 help but think of the attention from the Yangcheng Police paid to Guo Tianxiang. Judging from the personnel dispatched by the police, the case involved must be a big one, and Xiang Kun wondered how it was progressing now.
He had previously attached a ball point pen bead with a super sensory connection to the tail of a surveillance car using chewing gum. Although he could still sense it now, he was almost certain that the bead had long since been separated from the car there weren抰 many people who would ignore chewing gum stuck to the rear of a car.
After mulling it over for a long time, Xiang Kun still couldn抰 think of a way to probe into the progress of the Yangcheng Police抯 investigation while ensuring his own safety.
His reasons for wanting to know these things were: firstly, he wanted to know whether the police had any suspicions about the particularities of Guo Tianxiang抯 body, and what was the official attitude;
Secondly, he wanted to know whether the police had found out about Guo Tianxiang抯 final whereabouts, and if there was any suspicion about Xiang Kun himself;
Thirdly, he wanted to know if the police were still watching closely, because if they had loosened up, he would actually like to go back to the previous places where Guo Tianxiang lived, to help search and identify the complex memory fragments of Guo Tianxiang.
After some thought, Xiang Kun decided to take a roundabout approach and make a breakthrough from the dreadlocked female hacker, Mijoe.
His observation in Yangcheng made it clear that Mijoe had not been captured by the police梠f course, it had been half a month and whether she had been caught now was uncertain.
However, judging from her condition, some conclusions could be drawn.
So how could he ascertain her condition?
One method, of course, was to directly contact her using Guo Tianxiang抯 mobile phone, but that was too dangerous. The police would surely be monitoring Guo Tianxiang抯 number. His WeChat, (XO. email and other communication tools would surely also be under surveillance, including Mijoe抯.
Another method was the emergency contact email Mijoe gave Guo Tianxiang on the 揹arknet?
Before heading to Yangcheng, Xiang Kun was only focused on Guo Tianxiang抯 memory and past experiences, and was not interested in Mijoe. Contacting her only posed risks. However, after going to Yangcheng and learning that the police were investigating Guo Tianxiang and Mijoe, he was even more cautious about having contact with Mijoe.
But now, after careful consideration, Xiang Kun decided to check that email.
Normally speaking, both the police and Mijoe should be unaware that Guo Tianxiang is already dead. After Mijoe realized that the police were investigating them, and ran away, she would certainly try to contact Guo Tianxiang, and considering that the mobile phone and common communication software were surely being monitored, it was highly likely that she would contact him through that email.
As long as he accessed the contact email she sent, he should be able to roughly ascertain her current condition, and then, according to the actual situation, assess whether he wants to conduct further investigation or not. Of course, even if it was a 揹arknet, Xiang Kun would not directly use it at home.
Just like the first time he contacted 揔asumi of August, he made full preparations. However, this time he didn抰 go to that dumpling shop to steal the caf閽s WIFI, but switched to an alternate location that he had spotted before and used the same method of stealing WIFI from a nearby business without surveillance.
In the same vein, he didn抰 skip the groundwork of 揵ridging? then he accessed the email on the darknet from Guo Tianxiang抯 memory.
Afterward, he discovered that there was only one email in the entire inbox. Tapping into it, there were only two sentences within:
揟hat vampire seems to have located me, what should I do?
揟he police are also after us, don抰 use your cell phone to communicate. The email was sent on October 11th, at about one in the morning.
Xiang Kun had anticipated what Mijoe might say when contacting Guo Tianxiang through this email, and had subconsciously considered various possibilities, but to be honest, his expectations were thrown off by these two sentences.
The second sentence was not surprising, realizing that the police were investigating them and fleeing first was within Xiang Kun抯 assumptions. But the first sentence left him extremely puzzled..
