230 Investigation (2/2)
”Hi Brother Zhao, my name is Ye Xiu. I am the investigator that was sent by the Hunter Association on the case,” Lin Huang said while projecting his investigation ID.
Brother Zhao nodded immediately. ”The Union Government asked me to be cooperative. Just ask whatever you have to, I will not hide anything.”
”Alright, let’s start then.” Lin Huang nodded and got into finding out the details.
”What time was it when you guys discovered the dead bodies?”
”Early in the morning two days ago, it was about 8:30 a.m...It was our first task of the day. We received complaints from the residents once we arrived at work, saying that the sewer was blocked. Water was leaking and the stench was unbearable. We headed there right after we changed into our uniforms…”
”Could you elaborate more about how you guys discovered the dead bodies?” Lin Huang asked.
”We removed the manhole covered when we arrived. After clearing all the water, we went underground to investigate. We noticed that the silt was thick, so we went down to clean it. To our surprise, just when we started to dig, we were shocked to find a human hand. Our colleague, Little Wang, was young and brave. He pulled the entire body out of the silt. We reported it to the Union Government immediately…”
”Did you see how they die?” Lin Huang asked.
”No, it was dark down there. Moreover, the dead bodies were covered in silt. Had the Union Government not ask us to stay there till their staff came, we would've ran away immediately. We didn’t dare to look.”
”So, you guys only discovered one body while the rest were dug out by the staff from the Union Government?” Lin Huang proceeded to ask.
”That’s right. When we called, they asked us to stay there and stop digging so that the crime scene would not be ruined. We stayed there until the staff arrived, then they proceeded to dig out the rest of the body. As we were recording our confessions while they dug, only did we realize that there was more than one dead body…”
Lin Huang nodded and asked a couple more questions until he got the answers he wanted.
”Thank you for your cooperation, we will investigate this as soon as we can.” Lin Huang stood up and shook his hand after he was done with his questions.
”Mr. Ye, there were a man and a woman who came to investigate this case as well. They were not as friendly as you,” Brother Zhao laughed.
”The mission was published on the Hunter Info Network by your government, so any Silver Hunter and Gold Hunter could be on it. Perhaps it’s natural for some hunters to be unfriendly, please forgive us,” Lin Huang explained with a smile.
”I understand that, I will do whatever I can to help. I hope you guys can catch the culprit soon.” Brother Zhao nodded.
”I shall talk to your colleagues then, I’ll get going.”
”Do you want me to bring you there? I have nothing to do anyway,” Brother Zhao offered enthusiastically.
”It’s alright, I have their address here. You enjoy your holiday.” Lin Huang patted his shoulder.
After leaving his house, Lin Huang took a look at the map. After confirming the address, Lin Huang summoned Viridian Wolf and headed to the address of the second person.
