Chapter 174: Looking for the Corpse King(1/2)
Faced with Xu Wen's questioning, Long Xuzi showed his flaws again and again.
This also made Xu Wen basically certain that Long Xuzi was hiding something.
And what was hidden was something about the Corpse King.
At this time, Xu Wen did not continue to ask further questions.
Because he could feel that if he continued to ask questions, the other party would be extremely disgusted. The other party would remain silent and avoid him, and Xu Wen would not be able to find out anything.
Since Long Xuzi is hiding something, let him investigate it himself.
Anyway, Xu Wen didn't know that it was his first time to investigate this Long Xuzi.
…
"Senior, since you can't find the Corpse King, I'll help you find him."
"When I find the Corpse King, I will ask the seniors to deal with him so that the people in the city can spend the New Year in peace."
Xu Wen said to Long Xuzi.
After hearing this, Long Xuzi waved his long sleeves and hummed.
"snort!"
"casual!"
After saying that, Long Xuzi turned around and left with an angry look on his face.
Seeing Long Xuzi leaving, Xu Wen raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.
"I want a map of the infected area and all the surveillance videos of the infected area during this period."
"Then arrange a quiet room for me and give me a day without disturbing me."
After Xu Wen made the request, Mi Feng immediately arranged a quiet room for him according to Xu Wen's request.
At the same time, all surveillance videos from the recent period were retrieved and handed over to Xu Wen.
Xu Wen took the requested information and began to retreat.
Although it had been almost a few months since he had trained his investigative abilities, Xu Wen still had not forgotten his ability to eat.
For the next whole day, he locked himself in the room and watched every surveillance video without eating or drinking.
Xu Wen had to go through several months of surveillance and hundreds of cameras in one day.
So it was almost at the fastest multiple, just like watching a revolving door, looking at the contents of the monitor.
It has to be said that Xu Wen has a pair of sharp eyes, and no clues can escape his eyes.
After Xu Wen's all-night investigation, Xu Wen finally learned the cause and effect of the entire incident from the surveillance.
First of all, this zombie disease is different from the zombies in movies and TV shows.
Zombies in movies and TV shows mutate rapidly in less than ten seconds after being bitten, which is simply illogical.
It takes an average of five days for the zombie disease to go from infection to onset to complete zombie transformation.
This is why Wucheng had enough time to react and seal off the infected area.
Otherwise, according to the logic in film and television dramas, Wucheng would have fallen long ago.
Secondly, people who become zombies will not be like those perverted zombies in movies and TV shows.
In movies and TV shows, ordinary people are "resurrected" instantly after being bitten by zombies in less than ten seconds, and then directly transform from an ordinary person into an athlete, running faster than a dog.
This is also illogical.
People who become zombies truly become motionless zombies, just like corpses.
However, they can move. After receiving some kind of signal or instruction, they will jump and move collectively.
In this regard, it is like the zombies in Hong Kong dramas, which can only jump but cannot run.
Of course, some will raise their hands and some won't.
They don't have many sports skills, but their jumping ability is amazingly powerful.
And the strength will also increase a lot.
Zombies basically stand still until they sense any living things.
Once there are living creatures around, they will attack the living creatures.
Of course, these cannot deduce where the Corpse King is.
In addition to the Corpse King, Xu Wen discovered other zombies running out of the coffin.
Their clothing is all a standard python robe.
Obviously, these zombies are basically characters from the feudal era of the last century.
What Xu Wen needs to consider now is why these zombies appeared in Wucheng at the same time.
And why do these zombies emerge from Wujiang River?
Could it be that there is some ancient tomb hidden under Wujiang River?
…
Xu Wen walked out of the room and Mi Feng asked quickly.
"Is there any harvest?"
It can be seen that Mi Feng still believes in Xu Wen and thinks that Xu Wen will definitely be able to discover some secrets.
However, after hearing this, Xu Wen shook his head.
"Not yet!"
"I also need a map of the geographical structure of Wucheng and a map of the mountains in the Wujiang River Basin."
"By the way, I also need some topography information and history of Wucheng."
"In short, the problem now is not to find the zombie king, but to find out why these zombies appear in Wujiang."
Xu Wen said to Mi Feng.
After hearing Xu Wen's words, Mi Feng couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Aren't you looking for the Corpse King?"
Xu Wen shook his head.
"It's not that I won't look for it, it's that you can't find it now."
"Obviously, someone doesn't want to find the Corpse King right away."
Xu Wen's words also have some meaning.
Mi Feng couldn't help frowning.
"You mean, Senior Long Xuzi?"
Xu Wen shook his head.
"I didn't say this, but now it can be proved that Long Xuzi must be hiding something from us."
"Maoshan has inherited it through the ages. It's impossible not to find even a scorched-level zombie. Even a layman like me doesn't believe it. How can you, an expert, believe it?"
After listening to Xu Wen's words, Mi Feng fell silent.
If Xu Wen hadn't said anything, Mi Feng wouldn't have noticed this problem yet.
Now that Xu Wen took the initiative to bring it up, Mi Feng realized that this problem might not be simple.
"Okay, let's go prepare what I want!"
"I'm going to make some phone calls."
After Xu Wen finished speaking, he turned around and went into the house to make a phone call.
As for Mi Feng, he followed Xu Wen's request and began to prepare what he needed.
…
Xu Wen entered the house and directly called Gou Fugui from the Ping'an District Police Detective Bureau in Shanjiang City.
"Hey, old dog."
"Who are you?"
"I'm your father!"
"I'll fuck you, uncle!"
After the daily exchange of words, Xu Wen started talking about business.
"Did you gain anything from Case No. 0587 that I asked you to investigate before?"
After hearing Xu Wen's inquiry, Gou Fugui asked in confusion.
"Old Xu, haven't you become a monk? Why do you want to come back and compete with me for the position of director if you don't practice meditation in the mountains?"
