Chapter 123 The key figure of the clue
“But strangely enough, it collects water.”
At this point, he walked closer to the soul bottle and took a look, then continued, "When we found this thing, it was already soaked."
"This thing is extremely dangerous!"
After a pause, he remembered something and told the whole story.
"Because of it, six people had accidents in a very short period of time. And it was very strange."
"When we were conducting an internal inspection, we specifically checked the surveillance video. We found that these six people had come to the warehouse a few days before the accident and had touched this thing.
"Oh, this incident was inexplicable and weird. No one dared to touch this thing anymore."
But he said so much without getting to the point. Although these things sounded useful to Wu Xie, they were obviously not what he wanted.
And why did Manager Ding tell them this? What was his purpose?
What is Manager Ding doing here?
This has made Wu Xie fall into deep thought, but he became even more interested.
Manager Ding also noticed that Wu Xie was interested, and immediately, a playful smile appeared in his eyes.
Wu Xie came back to his senses and said calmly, "Manager Ding, you have checked this cargo before, right?"
"It's better not to meddle in other people's business!" Manager Ding looked at Wu Xie, who had finally been aroused by him to investigate. He walked up to Wu Xie with a serious expression.
Then his tone revealed his concern for his employees, and he also shouted contempt: "It's a great courage for Xiao Sanye to want to be a butcher."
"But, it's a tooth cutter. It requires a lot of experience. Why bother with this kind of bad luck when you can just do a little research within your ability?"
"If he ends up like those six people, the loss will outweigh the gain."
"Yes, yes, yes." Wu Xie was amused by his provocation and retorted, "Then was it because you were afraid of death that you didn't investigate further?"
"You are worried that if I find out about something you can't investigate, you will be embarrassed, right?"
Bai Haotian looked at Wu Xie with a smile on his face. His idol really had personality. He even confronted his top leader.
Listening to Wu Xie's words, Manager Ding pretended to be embarrassed, with a hint of amusement in his eyes: "Aren't you afraid of death?"
"Of course I am afraid." Wu Xie's voice was filled with mockery: "But probably not as afraid as you."
The goal has been achieved, it's time to leave. Manager Ding glanced at Bai Haotian who was grinning with his head down. He pointed at Wu Xie with an expression that showed he wasn't going to argue with him.
"naughty!"
After saying that, he turned and left.
Bai Haotian, who was standing next to Wu Xie, was having a very hard time trying not to laugh.
After Manager Ding finally walked away and disappeared, Bai Haotian turned around and looked at Wu Xie again.
The surrounding goods were stacked very neatly, and their voices at this time seemed a little more ethereal.
Perhaps it was all because the place they were in was extraordinary, and many unusual things had happened here, which created a terrifying atmosphere.
Wu Xie, who was standing beside him, was a little skeptical, because it seemed to be more of a legend. And judging from the look on Director Ding's face, he seemed to want to scare them, so he was more likely to be the majority.
But Wu Xie still spoke very solemnly.
"Is what he said true?"
After the voice fell, Bai Haotian's expression was no longer as heartless as before. Now her expression was also very solemn.
Ever since she took over Warehouse 11, these five strange goods have existed, and each one is more bizarre than the other.
Although large airplanes are troublesome enough, no one will die.
And just as Manager Ding said, six people died in this soul bottle at once. Some committed suicide, and some went missing.
In short, it exudes a sense of weirdness.
Hiss, thinking of this, Bai Haotian felt a chill on his spine and couldn't help but take a breath.
"Isn't it a bit scary?" Bai Haotian saw Wu Xie approaching, obviously wanting to check, and she explained in a low voice: "So, if I were to use an easy-to-understand analogy.
Then we can understand that the soul bottle is like a thing that nourishes the soul. Because there is a soul inside that covers the soul, so it can only be covered but not come out, so it is called the soul-covering technique. "
Wu Xie turned his head and took a look: "There's a talisman on it? Oh, by the way, is all the information related to this soul bottle still archived?"
Bai Haotian nodded. Every major event in Warehouse 11 would be recorded. She said without hesitation, "It's all in the archives."
"Then take me to the archives room to check for relevant clues." Wu Xie pointed at the road with his chin.
"Okay then." Bai Haotian said as he took him to find relevant information.
..............................
The next day, at dawn, Wu Suowei's cell phone vibrated violently and jumped off the bed.
Wu Suowei hurriedly took out his cell phone from his pocket and squinted at the caller ID.
It was Wu Xie calling. He was so irritated by waking up that he immediately swiped the screen of his phone.
"You are not active in taking a break, there is something wrong with your thinking. Don't you know how hard I work? You have only rested for a few hours? What time is it now? It's not even five o'clock! My boss Wu."
"I have to go to work at 9:30, and I get up at 8 o'clock. Even if I have to crawl, I can still get there!"
Wu Suowei rubbed his head, looking listless.
"Okay, okay, it's already late. Come over quickly. There's new information." Wu Xie said into the phone.
"Got it. See you later." Wu Suowei put down his phone, washed, got dressed, and headed towards Warehouse 11.
Inside Wu Xie's bedroom, Wu Suowei was half lying on a chair with his eyes closed.
Wu Xie saw this and shook his head. He simply took out his cell phone and called Fatty Wang. He turned on the speakerphone and told Fatty that he was also explaining the information to Wu Suowei.
"The Soul Bottle incident involved six people, but coincidentally, all six of them met with accidents within 24 hours after coming into contact with the Soul Bottle. Three of them disappeared unexpectedly, and three committed suicide."
Wu Xie said with a hint of confusion in his voice: "But why would someone commit suicide after touching the soul bottle?"
The fat man mumbled over the phone as if he was eating something: "Could they have been murdered? Disguised as suicide?"
"Little Brother Wu, how about you? Were you too tired last night? Can't open your eyes? After all, we are all brothers, there is no need to hide anything." Wu Xie smiled.
Wu Suowei, who was resting, slowly raised his eyelids and then closed them again. Suicide was possible, and murder was also possible.
"Here, the leader is supreme. If the leader orders his subjects to die, they have to die. So it is very likely that someone forced them to commit suicide."
"But we can't easily draw conclusions without evidence. Do you have any clues?"
After the voice fell, Wu Xie nodded and announced to the two people: "The only clue I have now is that one of the deceased's younger brothers is called Du Mingqiu. He is still working in Warehouse 11. It seems that we have to go find him first.
Wu Suowei nodded, and the fat man's voice came: "Your job is something you have to protect with your life. I think the treatment is good, sincerely."
"It's enough for the three of us to live on. Tell Xiao Wuzi to work hard when he is working."
"And the oranges at home are almost gone."
"As a man, you should be dedicated, Wang Yueban. As for you, you should stay at home, clean the house and cook well."
“I’ll bring it to you when we get home.
Live a good life, ah, dear! "
Pah, pah, pah, the sound of Fatty Wang spitting out orange seeds came from the other end. After Wu Xie hung up the phone, Wu Suowei rolled his eyes and followed him to the bathroom.
After the two entered the bathroom, they saw Du Mingqiu, who had a pig-kidney face, rummaging through the cabinets.
Wu Xie put the clothes in the closet, closed it and pretended not to know what was going on. He called out, "Du Mingqiu?"
"Yes!" When Du Mingqiu was called, he thought it was the leader and stood at attention immediately.
When he turned around, he saw two people walking towards him and felt confused.
"Who are you two? What's going on?"
"It's really you. I'm Wu Xie. I just arrived at Warehouse 11. Oh, his name is Wu Suowei." Wu Xie had a smile on his face.
When Du Mingqiu heard that it was Wu Xie, he became unrestrained. He ignored Wu Suowei and looked at Wu Xie with an unhappy face: "Are you Wu Xie? Do you want to talk to me about something?"
Looking at Du Mingqiu's level, the gap between them was huge, so Wu Xie had to say softly: "I've been looking into the soul bottle recently, and I want to get some information from you."
Du Mingqiu was so angry that he tilted his head and let out a sigh. He slammed the cabinet shut, turned around and wanted to leave, but Wu Xie did not agree with him.
"Don't leave in a hurry. I know that this incident back then was related to you. Your brother was one of the victims, so you must know more news and have more information, right?"
Du Mingqiu looked very impatient, and he naturally didn't want to answer Wu Xie so easily.
But Wu Xie didn't intend to do that, because of the other party's attitude, he decided that he must accomplish this thing.
So even though Du Mingqiu's attitude is very bad now, there is still a way to pry open his mouth.
Sure enough, Du Mingqiu didn't want to tell this matter easily, so he wanted to get rid of Wu Xie and naturally avoided his action easily.
“I think it’s not a good idea for us to take action here.
After all, it was a warehouse, and there were rules here. The place where they were now was very close to some special places, and if they took action here, others would know about it soon.
Then the matter would become more and more serious, and Du Mingqiu probably didn't want that to happen. So he didn't continue his actions, but looked directly at Wu Xie.
Then Du Mingqiu suddenly smiled, and it seemed that he knew that Wu Xie would not let him go so easily.
But even so, Du Mingqiu still has his own bargaining chips. Wu Xie's current level is not as high as his own, and even Wu Suowei next to him is only L2. So, he can still take detours.
At the same time, Du Mingqiu also knew that directly rejecting Wu Xie and Wu Suowei would not work now, so why not take advantage of it?
So Du Mingqiu looked at the badges of Wu Xie and Wu Suo and pointed again.
"Don't tell me how powerful you are. Anyway, your current level is lower than mine. So if that's the case, if you want to ask me something, you have to treat me to a meal first, right?"
When Wu Xie heard this, he smiled slightly and patted the other person on the shoulder.
"Of course it's easy to talk about. Isn't it just a meal? Let alone this matter, if it can be done, maybe you can get an unexpected surprise."
"That's great, why didn't you say so earlier?"
Then he asked again: "You asked about the soul bottle, you want to be a tooth butcher, right?" Seeing Wuxie nod, he took a breath and continued:
"Hiss, you can do those tricky things with the tooth slayer just because you want to?"
It sounded like Du Mingqiu was obviously mocking him for overestimating his own abilities.
Wu Xie immediately asked back, "Isn't it possible for me to do what I want? Isn't this the rule of your Warehouse 11?"
It seemed that Wu Xie had something else in his words, and that he had deliberately excluded himself from the Warehouse 11 system, as if telling him that this matter would be handed over to the local police for handling after it was investigated.
Du Mingqiu was stunned, and then he said uncooperatively: "The information is all in the archives, which record everything we knew at the time. Besides, it's been so long since this happened, even if I really missed something, I have forgotten it."
After saying that, he looked at Wu Suowei next to him. He had heard Manager Ding talk a long time ago and knew that this guy was quite capable. But he didn't say anything and then turned and left.
Wu Xie looked at his departing back, an expression of disbelief flashing across his face. It is said that blood is thicker than water, and brothers are as close as brothers.
But Du Mingqiu gave him a feeling of being too cold, and there must be something wrong when things were abnormal.
Wu Xie looked at Wu Suowei's face and wondered, "Is there a huge conflict between the two brothers? Did he fall in love with a girl when he was young?"
"This is not a novel, open it quickly." Wu Suowei looked at Wu Xie with a smile on his face.
As a tomb robber, stealing things is the most basic job. Just now, Wu Xie took advantage of the moment when Du Mingqiu was stunned and reached his finger into Du Mingqiu's pocket.
After hearing what Wu Suowei said, Wu Xie immediately took out the key and Du Mingqiu's cabinet was opened, revealing a notebook.
“The matter is urgent, Du Mingqiu will not do it quickly, so don’t even think about seeing anything specific here.
Wu Suowei immediately took out his cell phone and kept taking pictures. Wu Xie looked at Wu Suowei's familiar movements and immediately gave him a thumbs up.
When Wu Suowei was about to close the box after taking pictures of everything in the notebook, he heard a chaotic sound coming from behind.
He immediately put the key and the notebook into the cabinet and left the key on the cabinet, then pulled Wu Xie outside.
Halfway through, they saw Du Mingqiu, the shrunken fat man, and two other warehouse managers walking towards the washroom.
The four people immediately blocked Wu Xie and Wu Suo's way.
