Chapter 2860 The World of Detectives

Chapter 2860 The World of Detectives

Soon they found a phone number on a telephone pole that served as an identification card.

They then found a public phone in a convenience store and made the call.

Half a day later, they got a crudely made ID card...

It's true, but the face is basically different.

But it can be used as long as it is not carefully identified.

Now that they have their ID cards, they can do some things.

Everyone said to Vincent: "Brother, what should we do now?"

Wensheng thought for a moment and said, "Actually, what we have to do is very simple."

“That’s adapting to local conditions.”

"We have to find a detective agency."

"Since there are many murders in this world, there must be many detectives."

Everyone suddenly realized.

Then they went to the detective agency.

After asking around, I found out that there are indeed many detective agencies just as Vincent had analyzed.

They came to a commercial street and immediately saw a group of office buildings, all with "Detective" signs hanging on them.

The number is indeed a little less than that of restaurants, but it is almost the same as that of barber shops.

The number of detective agencies in a place is the same as the number of barbershops, so you can imagine how many murders there are.

They came to one of the busiest office buildings.

I saw that it was an eight-story building.

It says "Da Jia Detective Agency" on it.

There was already a long queue at the entrance of the building, and staff were greeting everyone.

"Haha, it's really lively." Wuqing suddenly sneered for some reason.

Maybe you saw the position of "receptionist".

They also went over to line up.

Then they heard many people queuing up to ask the receptionist.

Someone cried, "My husband is dead. Please help me find the murderer, detective."

Another person said, "My safe is lost. Please help me find it back."

Someone else said: "My wife has been kidnapped, can you help me?"

In just a few minutes, they were shocked.

They were so ferocious that it was really an eye-opener for them.

After seeing this, they understood.

Why is this world called "Perfect Murder"?

Why do they need to find the murderer?

Because in many murders, the murderer has never been found.

There seem to be too many perfect murders in this world...

Obviously this has greatly promoted the prosperity of the detective industry.

The consumption behavior of many people is no longer reflected in the purchase of luxury goods, but in the purchase of detective services.

They don't buy the services of a lawyer, they buy the services of a detective.

The money is still the same money, and the labor is still the same labor.

It’s just that the investment industry is different.

Just like in the normal world, people have relatively stable public security, and the major consumption items are housing, entertainment, luxury goods, movies, television and telephones.

And after eating and drinking their fill, they want to pursue luxury cars and big houses.

And now, all this consumption is gone.

All of these non-essential consumption is invested in the detective industry.

It can be said that this is a detective's paradise.

The more prosperous the detective work is, the more it proves that there are many homicides and murders here.

At the same time, it proves that the murderers are mostly guys with high IQs, otherwise there would be no need for professional detectives.

All we need to do is recruit some ordinary patrol police.

After seeing this, they finally understood why the three patrolmen yesterday left after a brief investigation.

Just think about it, because there are so many murders.

They simply did not have enough manpower and brainpower to investigate a seemingly accidental death case.

Because there are more cases that are not accidents at first glance.

If they put all their energy into this one accidental case, then there would be no need to worry about other cases.

Now that I think about it, it won’t be long before the family members come to hire a detective.

Sure enough, they heard a woman shouting:

"My husband was killed by a flower pot, but it must have been an accident because our upper floor had already been fully equipped with anti-theft nets, and the community group also repeatedly emphasized that no falling objects from high places should be allowed."

Everyone shook their heads.

They didn't go forward to help for a simple reason: the other party wouldn't trust him.

After they waited patiently for a while, it was finally their turn.

The receptionist asked, "Hello, what cases do you want to schedule? Please fill in the form."

He muttered angrily, "You guys are so backward. Can't you fill out the form online?"

The receptionist smiled and said, "Filling out the form online may lead to the leakage of case information. It is safer to do it offline."

In fact, everyone could see that this was a screening process.

Those who can come from far away and queue for such a long time are basically high-value customers with a strong willingness to pay.

Although the Internet is convenient, most people are reluctant to spend money.

Vincent stepped forward and said, "We are here to apply for the position of detective assistant."

"We want to be detectives, too."

When the receptionist heard this, he said to everyone, "Oh, in that case, then you can go to another table."

Then a security guard came over and took everyone to another table.

There were no people at that table.

Only some young people are consulting.

There was an old man behind the table saying:

"If you want to be a detective, you have to fill out the form online. You also have to take an online test and an in-person test."

"It's not easy for a group of novices to enter a detective agency and become detectives."

"You should know that a professional detective must at least pass the Level 3.5 Detective Proficiency Test, and the starting salary is ."

"There are also various insurance benefits, commissions, rewards for the victims' families, rewards from patrol officers, and even a share of the missing items..."

"Basically, after a big case, you can get more than 10% of the victim's estate."

"It can be said that homicide is a powerful contributor to the redistribution of wealth."

Vincent and the others were speechless for a moment.

But it's true.

It turns out the murderer really did make some contribution...

"Our detective agency recruits all year round, but you must be level 2 or above to be an assistant, and level 4 or above is a full-time employee."

“You can become a partner at level six.”

"At level eight, you are the boss."

"You must first pass the detective exam online and obtain the detective qualification, then come here, and we will interview you based on your test scores."

"Well, good luck to you."

The old man was quite polite towards the group of newcomers.

Obviously, this is also a hidden benefit brought about by the frequent occurrence of homicides.

Everyone became very polite and tried their best to make others have no motive to murder them.

This can be considered a blessing in disguise.

It won't happen that you get slapped in the face easily.

So they then found an Internet cafe.

As soon as I logged in, the ad that appeared on the opening screen was about how to become a detective.

"How to see through the murderer's tricks at a glance!" "Getting started with detective in 21 days!"

"Shocked, he became a level 5 detective by doing that!"

"Success comes from 999 failed detectives!"

"The legendary story of the great detective Pineapple!"

A large number of book recommendations and video tutorials were pushed to everyone, which made everyone dazzled.

They never expected it to be so hot.

They then selected a video on “How to Become a Detective” which received the most views.

Everyone watched it together.

An old man with a white beard appeared in the video.

The old man was talking to the crowd:

"Everyone knows the high income and bright future of detectives."

“It’s possible to become a multimillionaire after solving a case.”

"When a billionaire dies unexpectedly, it often helps a dozen detectives become new billionaires."

“So there’s a constant flow of people wanting to be detectives.”

"How do you become a detective? How do you become a rich detective?"

"It's easy to become a detective. Just solve three cases."

"But it's hard to become an advanced detective, and it's even harder to become a Monopoly detective."

“This involves people’s hearts, social interaction, trust, technology, expertise… every aspect.”

"If you want to become an advanced detective, you must do the following:"

"First of all, never trust anyone. Even if he is your closest person."

“Secondly, always remember that you can’t even trust yourself.”

"Because you will deceive yourself."

"Your eyes can deceive you, your brain can deceive you, your sense of touch can deceive you, your hearing can deceive you."

"Third. Be cold-hearted."

“Only a cold heart can see the truth.”

“Only a cold heart can eat the inheritance like a vulture.”

After seeing this, they suddenly realized that the old man did not talk about technology, but only about mentality.

They vaguely felt that the detectives in this world were really vultures, rather than partners of justice.

That's right.

A normal detective is in business to make money.

It is ridiculous to expect them to uphold justice, just as it is ridiculous to expect wolves to protect the safety of sheep.

The old man smiled and said to everyone:

"Okay, thank you for your trust in me, and welcome everyone to watch this video."

"As for how to become an advanced detective, as I said above, it is indeed very difficult."

“But there is a way.”

"To be a real scout, you need a lot of professionalism and details."

"You need to study carefully and have sufficient strength."

"This strength refers to your money, your family connections, and various other resources."

"In short, if one of them is missing, it won't work."

"If you don't have wealth and power, sometimes even if you can figure out who the murderer is, you can't catch him."

"Some murderers are very powerful and often very cruel. If you catch them with evidence, you can become a millionaire."

"But they believe that as long as I kill all the witnesses, I will be a perfect criminal."

"These murderers are all very stubborn and want to commit the perfect crime."

"In their eyes, the perfect situation is to make the patrol officers know clearly that they did it, but they can't do anything about it and can't find any evidence."

“In others, the patrol officers were misled by them and caught scapegoats.”

"The most important thing is the scapegoat, who doesn't even know he is wronged."

"Even the scapegoat believes that he did it, which is also considered a perfect crime."

"So the real situation that the detective faces is very complicated, not as simple as in the story."

Hearing this, everyone nodded.

This old man has some useful information.

But after thinking about it carefully, he said nothing.

After thinking about this, everyone felt that they should indeed establish their own power.

Only after you have power can you solve the case.

Otherwise, a tragedy would occur where the case is solved but the detective dies.

What the other party said actually makes sense and is not just nonsense.

So they began to act quickly.

The first thing is to make money.

Only by making enough money can you gain enough power and be qualified to cause trouble.

At this time, they looked at the hunger floating in the team.

"Yeah, I suddenly remembered that we still have a hang."

"Yes, Hungry, aren't you just a puff of smoke?"

It occurred to them.

It turns out that hunger is the punishment given to them by the gods.

This is easy to deal with.

In an urban detective world, it would be a wonderful thing to have a ghost assistant.

They then let hunger go looking for money.

It would be best if you could become a witness to a super murder case and earn a lot of money just by selling clues.

Of course they also have other ways to make money, but since it is a detective-themed world, they naturally have to make money according to the logic of this world - otherwise, just wait for death.

If you expect to make a lot of money from business, you will be murdered one day.

Hunger is wandering around this city.

Soon, he saw a man taking a woman to climb the mountain.

He immediately felt that there was something wrong.

Sure enough, he tracked them down and found that the man and woman climbed up a cliff and then pushed each other down.

The woman screamed and fell down, landing on the rocks and died immediately.

Miserable.

Hunger took over and I quickly ate the last bite of the hot food.

There is no surveillance around this mountain.

There were no witnesses.

The cause of the murder was also simple.

It was just because the woman suddenly said, "In that case, I might as well marry someone else."

The man said: "For you, your only mistake is marrying me."

After saying that, the man pushed the woman down the mountain.

It's really interesting.

When Hungry saw this, he immediately laughed.

He doesn't know how to save people at all.

He simply started looking for evidence based on the man's behavior.

He was the first eyewitness.

But when he really started doing this work, he found that the evidence was really hard to find.

Although he was an eyewitness, he had no video or relevant audio.

This evidence is hard to find.

Finally, he found evidence that the other party pushed him.

There were fingerprints on the dead body.

But because the two parties are husband and wife, there is no way to prove the fingerprint issue.
