Chapter 220: Traveler

"I don't think you can find this person." Xu Liang suddenly said, his mouth grinning, looking at them with burning eyes.

"Why?" Qi Fei asked with interest.

"Because I think this person is a traveler from another world." Xu Liang said seriously.

Qi Fei laughed dumbly after hearing this: "An author told me before that the murderer was AI. Now you want to tell me that this person is a traveler?"

"I have a basis." Xu Liang was not angry because of Qi Fei's questioning, but insisted on his own point of view, "Last year, I saw someone on our author's exchange forum say that Supreme Himself was already dead.

It's just that I didn't take it seriously at that time. Because it is very common for authors to scold each other on the internet and rise to the level of personal attacks. I thought this person was just angered by Supreme and released harsh words. I didn't expect that Supreme really died this year."

Hearing this, a trace of suspicion flashed in Qi Fei's eyes: "We have a certain understanding of Hao Weiwei's popularity on the internet. Over the years, there have been many people scolding him on the internet, right? How can you remember it so clearly?"

Xu Liang pointed at Qi Fei with his finger: "Good question! Wait a minute!" Saying this, he turned to the desk where he wrote and opened a webpage to search, and finally clapped his hands, "Found it!" He moved the laptop over and showed it to Qi Fei and Wu Shanqiu.

Seeing the content, the two suddenly realized why Xu Liang remembered it so clearly.

I saw that this anonymously published post detailed the process of using a knife to stab Supreme Himself, every position and order of stabbing were exactly the same, especially at the end, he said he cut off Supreme Himself's right index finger.

"Look at this language style, is it exactly the same as the style of the chapter released on that God of War novel these two days! I guess it's that cyber killer, right?" Xu Liang asked excitedly, as if he were already a member of their investigation.

Qi Fei was silent, staring at the publication time of this post, knowing that Xu Liang's statement was not unreasonable. Of course, he would not believe that this cyber killer was a traveler. What he thought was that this post published a year ago perfectly predicted the murder a year later, which only shows that the murderer has a very strong execution ability, which has exceeded all the opponents he has encountered before.

Wu Shanqiu's voice came to his ear, interrupting his thoughts: "He made up his mind to cut off Hao Weiwei's right index finger a year ago. Why?"

"I understand this!" Unexpectedly, Xu Liang answered this question of hers. He stretched out his right hand and pointed in the air twice, "This is the finger we use to click the mouse. Without this finger, he can't click anything."

Sure enough, authors understand authors better. Xu Liang's words reminded Qi Fei, and he couldn't help but ask the other party: "If you were the murderer, would you have the idea of killing him because of what Supreme clicked?"

Xu Liang answered without hesitation: "It must be because he clicked that report button. This person, as long as any newcomer's article threatens him, for example, surpassing him on the leaderboard, that newcomer's article will definitely receive a lot of reports. You don't have to ask to know who clicked it."

It was late at night when the two returned to the police station. However, Qi Fei looked up from the courtyard to the upstairs, and the light in the Criminal Police Brigade office was on.

"Who is so diligent, still not off work in the middle of the night?" Qi Fei muttered with his hands on his hips.

"Aren't we also not off work?" Wu Shanqiu said and patted his arm, "I'm so sleepy, hurry up and organize the transcript and go home."

Going up to the second floor, passing through the long corridor, in the office with the light, the first thing I saw was the back of a woman, with long black hair draped over her shoulders, wearing a cheongsam with her back to them. Appearing suddenly in this office building in the middle of the night, it was like a classic scene in a ghost story.

"Zhong Kui, what are you doing here so late without going back?" Qi Fei said when he saw this.

Zhong Kui had long heard the movement of them going upstairs and turned the chair to face them unhurriedly, her eyelashes fluttering: "How is it? That guy living in Jiangbei is not the person you want to find, right?"

"You guessed it again." Qi Fei couldn't hide his disappointment.

"This is not hard to guess, right? This cyber killer has a pathological obsession with the plan. When he designed to kill Hao Weiwei, he must have considered how to get rid of your tracking, otherwise, his plan would not be able to close the loop." Zhong Kui circled her black hair with her right hand and said with a smile.

"It's not that there is no harvest at all." Qi Fei sat in the seat next to Zhong Kui. When his hand touched his cup, the cup wall was actually warm.

"Tossed for a day, drink some water." Zhong Kui said casually.

But this water was clearly poured by Zhong Kui in advance, calculating the time Qi Fei would return.

Wu Shanqiu passed by deliberately from the side and laughed: "Yeah, why didn't anyone pour water for me!"

Qi Fei waved his hand at her: "Didn't you say you were tired? I will organize the transcript, go back and rest first."

"Ha! Is this compensation for single dogs?"

"Less nonsense, bye!"

Wu Shanqiu smiled and packed her bag to get off work.

Only Qi Fei and Zhong Kui were left in the office.

"If I were the murderer, I should still be in Nancheng now." Zhong Kui said leisurely in Qi Fei's ear. The sweet, cloying scent on her body was exceptionally strong when the two of them were alone, making Qi Fei distracted involuntarily.

"Why..." Qi Fei drank the warm water Zhong Kui prepared for him and asked while wiping the corners of his mouth.

"Because he spent so much energy to complete this perfect crime. It would be a pity not to stay in Nancheng to appreciate how you can't do anything about him. Of course, I guess he is still continuing his 'research,' checking for omissions by secretly observing your investigation situation.

This must be an ultimate perfectionist." Zhong Kui said, her gaze falling on Qi Fei's hand on his thigh, and suddenly held it, making Qi Fei's heart beat faster, and he said in a panic: "This is the office, no, this is a principle!"

Zhong Kui heard this, her bright red mouth grinned: "No what? I just want to ask what happened to your right index finger?"

"Hmm?" Qi Fei knew he had misunderstood again, his face was as hot as a sunburn, "My index finger? Nothing..."

"You don't know it's twitching by itself?"

"Twitching?"

"Hmm-huh~ just like this." Zhong Kui raised her hand and made a light clicking action with her fingers in the air.

Qi Fei looked and laughed: "This..." Saying this, he told Zhong Kui the explanation of Xu Liang at the Jiangbei hotel about the cyber killer specifically cutting off Hao Weiwei's right index finger.

Zhong Kui heard this and looked at Qi Fei steadily: "Your subconscious knows that this matter is very critical." ===== CHAPTER 221 =====
