It was Song Yu calling again.

Fan Xiao sighed and chose to answer the call.

"elder brother……"

"Xiaoyu, listen to me," Fan Xiao interrupted his younger sister, "Your sister Lu and I have a very good relationship..."

"Brother! We'll talk about this later."

Song Yu's slightly crisp and cute voice came from the phone: "We're moving today, and Mom asked me to call you and ask you to come back and help."

Although she was his stepmother, Song Yu addressed her sweetly.

Over the years, the family has maintained a good relationship.

Fan Xiao asked in confusion, "Why do you suddenly want to move?"

"Brother, didn't you see the news?"

Song Yu said in a frightened tone, "There's been a murder in our neighborhood! Uncle Chen and Uncle Wang, their whole family..."

"In short, the incident happened last night. After I updated my status last night, I heard a lot of noise outside. I also noticed at noon today that the security guard in the community seemed to have been replaced."

"Moreover, Uncle Chen and Uncle Wang's place has been sealed off. Dad said this neighborhood is not safe, so we are going to move to the villa on Tangxin Street."

Upon hearing this, Fan Xiao frowned slightly and asked, "Do you know the details?"

"How would I know? It's been cordoned off over there, and they won't let us go over to see."

Song Yu said, "Brother, come back and help me. I have so many things to move, they're so heavy, my arms are so sore."

"Didn't you call a moving company?"

"Yes, I called out, but they have some personal things..."

"Okay, okay, I got it, I'll be right back."

After hanging up the phone, Fan Xiao did not return to the garage in the community to drive his car. Instead, he hailed a car on the roadside and headed home.

……

The number of security guards at the entrance of the upscale residential complex where the Song family lives is noticeably higher than usual.

When Fan Xiao arrived at the gate, he saw Song Yu standing outside, seemingly there to greet him.

The little girl had her hair in pigtails and wore a solid-color shirt with a bow tie. The shirt was tucked into a high-waisted pleated skirt, revealing her slender legs. She wore school uniform shoes and black socks that covered her ankles.

She looks lively and cute, a real beauty in the making, full of youthful and beautiful girlish charm.

"elder brother!"

Song Yu ran towards Fan Xiao, then lunged forward, trying to hug him.

Fan Xiao pressed his hand down on his sister's head, who was less than 1.6 meters tall, preventing the little girl from succeeding.

Your hair is messed up!

Song Yu quickly swatted his hand away, pouting slightly.

Fan Xiao said without any politeness, "Do you want me to hang a chamber pot on your mouth?"

"You're going too far, brother," Song Yu said, displeased. "Generally speaking, who would hold their sister's head down and prevent her from getting close?"

"There are so many people outside, I feel embarrassed."

Fan Xiao said indifferently.

“What’s there to be embarrassed about between siblings?” Song Yu retorted.

"Ha ha……"

Fan Xiao smiled and said, "I came back in a hurry this time and forgot to bring you a gift. I will definitely make it up to you with double next time."

Upon hearing this, Song Yu's expression immediately changed: "Um... let's forget about the gift, brother, you're too kind. It's not right to act like this when you're at home."

She hasn't finished her summer homework yet!

If Fan Xiao sends her some more exercise books or test papers.

It would be better to just kill her!

"Let's not talk about this anymore, let's go inside."

Song Yu grabbed Fan Xiao's hand and started walking with a sway, asking as they went, "Brother, you haven't been back for a long time. What have you been busy with lately?"

"I'm busy dating," Fan Xiao said.

Song Yu: "..."

“I will not agree!” she suddenly shouted.

"What are you yelling about? You scared me."

Fan Xiao pinched Song Yu's face hard, making the girl beg for mercy, repeatedly saying, "I was wrong, I was wrong."

Seeing that the other party had calmed down, he said, "Let's go to the place where the accident happened first, and we can talk about moving things later."

"Huh? We have to go over there?" Song Yu reminded her, "That area is blocked off; we can't go there. And..."

She shrank back and said, "Someone has died over there..."

“You just need to lead the way,” Fan Xiao patted his sister’s shoulder. “Don’t worry, I’m the one who’s looking, not you. You wait for me outside later.”

"Brother, aren't you scared?" Song Yu asked with a strange expression. "Besides, you're not a policeman, what are you doing going to a place where someone has died?"

"I've recently started working as a private investigator. Jobs are hard to find these days, so this is a way for me to hone my skills in advance."

Fan Xiao made it up on the spot.

“Um…” Song Yu raised her head and bravely suggested, “You don’t need to work, I can support you with my allowance.”

"My expenses are very high."

"How old are you?"

"About twenty or thirty thousand a month."

"Hehe, I can totally afford to raise them!"

"...I have a girlfriend, and she's very rich. She can support me. I don't need you."

"..."

Song Yu gritted his teeth and let out a soft hum.

However, the girl was cheerful and optimistic, and her mood quickly improved. She started talking about some interesting things that had happened to her recently.

Fan Xiao listened to her chatter as she walked along the lakeside road to a small villa.

"This is one of them, and the other one is on the left, not far away."

Song Yu pointed ahead, then pointed to the left.

Fan Xiao's gaze passed over the cordon and he saw many people busy inside.

He recognized someone among those people.

Chapter 91: We have a dungeon here too?

"Xiaoyu, wait for me here for a moment."

After giving his sister a few words of advice, Fan Xiao slipped through the cordon and headed towards the villa.

Song Yugang wanted to remind him that such recklessness would be met with criticism and education, but... she saw Fan Xiao talking to the police officers naturally without being stopped.

A middle-aged man, who seemed to be the team leader, took the initiative to pull Fan Xiao into the villa, as if he wanted to hear his opinion.

Song Yu stared wide-eyed, frozen in place.

Could my brother be some kind of undercover police officer?

She immediately thought of "three years after three years".

On the other side, Fan Xiao followed Captain Wang into the villa.

Captain Wang was the veteran detective he often dealt with.

Many of the statements Fan Xiao took were personally handled by this veteran detective.

When the two first met, the other party suspected him of having antisocial personality tendencies and often interrogated him in the interrogation room about some case details.

You could say they became acquainted through a fight.

"Seeing you at the crime scene doesn't surprise me at all," Captain Wang remarked.

“Don’t talk nonsense,” Fan Xiao retorted, “I’ve been behaving myself lately.”

"Now that you mention it... it's been a while since I've seen you much." Captain Wang asked, "What, your luck has changed? No, wait, you're a player now, out causing havoc in dungeons, aren't you?"

Fan Xiao: "..."

"Alright, let's not get sidetracked for now. Our initial suspicion is that this case involves crimes committed by evolved beings."

Captain Wang said to Fan Xiao, "Once we have investigated all the circumstances and confirmed our suspicions, we will send the report to the Special Affairs Bureau."

"The efficiency is a bit slow," Fan Xiao said.

"no way."

Captain Wang sighed and said, "You've dealt with the Special Affairs Bureau before, so you should know that they don't have many members right now."

“Ancheng is so big, and many things happen every day. If we just rely on a guess and ask them to send players over, even if the number is increased fivefold, it won’t be enough.”

After pouring out his grievances, his expression became more serious: "You're definitely more professional than me when it comes to this kind of thing. Can you help me see if it was really done by a player?"

"Don't worry."

Fan Xiao walked around the villa.

The body had already been taken for testing and was not available for the time being, so he focused his attention on environmental reconnaissance.

The double doors leading to the living room on the first floor are placed on the ground, with a huge indentation on them and part of the wall still stuck to the edge.

The granite floor tiles were cracked by the door, and some broken pieces flew far away.

Unless heavy weapons or bombs are used, humans cannot do this with their bodies alone.

Players are excluded.

Fan Xiao then looked at the other damaged areas and compared whether he could fix them with his own strength, and gradually made a judgment in his mind.

"The other villa is similar, the gate looks like it was punched open," Captain Wang pointed out.

Fan Xiao laughed and said, "With your statement, you already know the answer in your heart, don't you?"

"I suppose so," Captain Wang said, "but I'm not a player after all, so there's a possibility that I might make a wrong judgment."

"Have you checked the surveillance footage?" Fan Xiao asked.

"Looked."

Captain Wang replied, "We have investigated all the people with entry and exit records. They are all residents of this community and have lived here for several years. Moreover, each of them has an alibi, so we can basically rule out them as suspects."

Fan Xiao thought for a moment and said, "Wait while I make a call."

Captain Wang nodded.

Fan Xiao took out his phone and dialed Du Ruo's number.

Fortunately, Du Ruo wasn't in the instance at the moment, and the phone was answered after a few rings.

"Tell me, what incident have you gotten yourself involved in this time?"

Without even a greeting, Du Ruo cut to the chase and asked the question.

His tone was also tinged with curiosity.

Fan Xiao: "..."

One or two really... He's been very well-behaved lately; the longest he's accumulated good fortune hasn't even lasted more than 8 days. Where did all these incidents come from?

Fan Xiao said, "I have something to ask you. Has a new instance been created in our 010 division?"

"You're quite well-informed. How did you find out about something that just happened not long ago?"

Du Ruo asked, somewhat surprised, "Where did you find out?"
