The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 228 Waiting for a Long Time

In the next two days, Gao Yang went to school during the day and slept at Wang Zikai's house at night.

Every evening after self-study, Wang Zikai personally came to pick up Gao Yang at the school gate, completely eliminating the possibility of being assassinated by ghosts.

The most difficult person to deal with is his mother, but Gao Yang has already thought of a countermeasure.

On the phone, Gao Yang first told his mother that he had decided to go to a university in Licheng, and half of this was due to Wang Zikai's persuasion.

My mother immediately became very fond of Gao Yang, a "funny friend".

Gao Yang assured his mother that he was at Wang Zikai's house for a surprise review.After all, it is more efficient to have someone to supervise and cooperate with you in doing and memorizing questions at any time.

In order to convince his mother that it was true, Gao Yang also deliberately took many photos of him and Wang Zikai studying seriously together.

Wang Zikai was even more exaggerated. He wore a "must win the college entrance examination" scarf on his head, as if he was the one who was going to take the exam.

When her mother saw Wang Zikai's appearance, she was both funny and helpless, so she had no choice but to let Gao Yang stay at Wang Zikai's house.

At the same time, she did not forget to tell her son to pay attention to rest and not to sacrifice sleep time to stay up late to study questions.

Late at night three days later, Gao Yang was studying in the evening. Wang Zikai’s sports car, Wu Dahai, borrowed Wang Zikai’s McLaren, appeared outside the school on time.

Fortunately, Wang Zikai is a beast, otherwise Gao Yang would be a little panicked if he acted as Gao Yang's personal bodyguard in such a high-profile manner every day.

"Brother! Go home!"

Wang Zikai took off his sunglasses, put one hand on the car door, grinned, and showed his confident white teeth.

As soon as Gao Yang walked to the car, a car not far away honked its horn.

Gao Yang turned around and looked over, recognizing it as Hui Xiong's car.

"Wang Zikai, please wait for me for a few minutes."

Gao Yang crossed the road, walked to Hui Xiong's car, opened the door, and got into the passenger seat.

"Captain, the thing you asked me to do has made progress." Hui Xiong took out a dozen photocopies of surveillance video screenshots and handed them to Gao Yang.

Gao Yang took it and flipped through it. The picture was very blurry. It was at night, and they were all small and medium-sized trucks passing by a certain intersection.

"From 5 a.m. to 18 a.m. on May 1, all the small and medium-sized trucks passing by the intersection were here, 8 in total. I asked someone to help investigate, and it took a lot of time."

Gao Yang nodded: "Is there any result?"

"Have."

Hui Xiong pointed to one of the photos, which was a moving truck: "All other vehicles have been checked, and the suspicion is basically ruled out. Only this moving truck has problems."

"go on."

"This moving truck was stolen more than ten days ago. The moving company reported it, but it has never been found."

Gao Yang understood that the body thief first stole the car, then went to the funeral home to steal the body, and then drove it away.

"Very good, can this car be found now?" Gao Yang asked.

"As long as this car continues to drive, it will be locked once it appears in the surveillance." Hui Xiong's confident tone changed slightly: "But if this car never comes out, there is nothing we can do."

Hui Xiong smiled helplessly: "It is impossible for the police to investigate every household. I am relying on personal connections to investigate. There is no support in terms of manpower and material resources."

Gao Yang nodded, thought for a moment, and then asked: "Does our union have any awakened people who are good at finding things?"

Hui Xiong thought about it seriously: "Well, it seems there really isn't one. I don't know about the elder level. Their talents are kept secret."

Gao Yang was a little disappointed. In this case, the clue would be lost.

"But," Hui Xiong thought of something: "There may be people like this in the Baichuan Regiment."

"Really?"

"That's my guess too. They have always been very good at finding things. I heard that some people can use items as psychic mediums." Gray Xiong wasn't very convinced either.

Baichuan Group?

Gao Yang was thoughtful. He left the photo of the moving truck and returned the rest to Hui Xiong: "Destroy all of these. This is the end of the matter. Don't tell anyone or talk to anyone."

"Captain." Hui Xiong smiled curiously: "What are you checking? It's so mysterious."

"Grey Male."

Gao Yang looked at him and put Suzaku's advice to good use: "Every secret is accompanied by risks. Don't ask if you shouldn't ask. It's for your own good."

Hui Xiong nodded, "Captain, I know this must be dangerous, but we have a life-long friendship."

So I can't let you die easily. Besides, Qilin just wants me to investigate alone in private.

Gray Xiong thought of something again, and his eyes became hot: "By the way, have you found any clues in the former captain's diary?" Gao Yang shook his head: "I have read it over and over again, it's just an ordinary diary."

Gray Xiong's eyes were pleading: "Captain, I can ignore other things. But if you find the murderer of the former captain, you must tell me. Team 5 must avenge Captain Sankong!"

In fact, it has been found. The murderer is Hong Crazy, and he has been killed by me.

As for the Cangmu Cult behind Red Madness, it is no longer something that our 5th group can deal with now. If we really want to wipe them out, we will probably have to mobilize the entire organization.

Gao Yang patted Hui Xiong on the shoulder: "Don't worry."

"That's okay." Hui Xiong felt relieved.

He thought of something else and reminded: "By the way, if you want to ask people from the Baichuan Group for help, you have to hurry up. The longer the time, the lower the success rate of channeling."

"I will think about it."

After Gao Yang got out of the car, he watched Hui Xiong's car leave, and then he got into Wang Zikai's sports car.

"Go home? Or go have a midnight snack first?" Wang Zikai asked.

"Wait a minute."

Gao Yang carefully thought about Hui Xiong's suggestion and thought he could try it.

It's not too late now. He has Chen Ying's contact information and can give her a call.

Theoretically, asking the Baichuan Group to help find something only involves one part of the investigation and does not require an explanation of the entire core incident, so there is no violation.

Gao Yang dialed the number, and after a few rings, he picked up the call.

"Who?" Chen Ying's voice.

"Dark Horse, now it's Seven Shadows." Gao Yang answered briefly.

"Wait a moment." There was a slight pause, and there was the sound of water, followed by the rustling of towels, and then the sound of clothes touching the body.

"What's up?"

"Well, if it's convenient, it's best to have an interview. The sooner the better."

"Okay, the Sakura Restaurant on the top floor of Guanhai Building in Nanji District is waiting for you." He blurted out and hung up the phone.

Gao Yang was startled: This kind of mobility is too strong, as if he had expected that he would ask her to meet.

Gao Yang put down his cell phone and looked at Wang Zikai: "I'm not going home. I'm going to Guanhai Tower in Nanji District for a late-night snack."

"no problem!"

Wang Zikai started the car, stepped on the accelerator, and the sexy sound of the engine filled the street.In a blink of an eye, only the McLaren's taillights were left on the road at night.

In the early morning, Gao Yang and Wang Zikai came to Guanhai Tower.

Although the name is Guanhai Tower, there is no sea at all from the city.

In a seven-story hotel with a sense of age, Gao Yang and Wang Zikai walked into the revolving door, walked into the luxurious but old-fashioned lobby, entered the elevator, and pressed 7F.

Half a minute later, the elevator door opened, revealing a restaurant full of island-style cuisine.

At this point, there were no customers in the store.

Chen Ying was wearing formal and restrained business attire, a white shirt, trousers, and high heels. She stood in the lobby outside the elevator, looking like she had been waiting for a long time.

When she saw the two of them, she waved her hand slightly: "You two, please come in."

Gao Yang and Wang Zikai followed Chen Ying and walked quickly through the general area to the innermost box.

The three-story screen door slowly opened, revealing a private room with soft lighting and elegant style.

In front of the tatami is a long, low table filled with exquisite sushi, sashimi, and drinks.

Opposite the low table, an elderly woman is sitting on her knees. She is wearing a black silk suit with her hair tied up. She has an elegant, wealthy and peaceful temperament.

She is well maintained, with smooth and firm skin, some dry lines at the corners of her eyes and mouth, and a pair of blue eyes like a calm lake.

In the corner behind the lady, there was a wheelchair.

Is she paralyzed?Gao Yang had a question in his mind.

An adult woman dressed as a busker was sitting on her knees beside the low table, lowering her head and playing a sad tune on her erhu.

"Captain Seven Shadows, I've been waiting for a long time."

The woman smiled.
