Chapter 3689 Guarding
"The Observatory has issued a low temperature and cold wave warning, calling on citizens to pay attention to keeping warm and be careful of catching a cold..."
In the car, Zi Ling's mother suddenly turned down the volume of the radio, and a phone call came in... But Zi Ling's mother didn't talk for long before ending the call with the other party.
Li Zi asked curiously, "Sister, who is this... seems to be calling to ask about Li Dongnan?"
Zi Ling's mother nodded and said, "A friend from the city museum called to gossip."
Li Zi blinked her eyes. "Is that the one who told you that Li Dongnan had caused trouble in the museum?"
"It's her." Zi Ling's mother said casually, "I'll introduce you to her when I have time. She's a very easy-going elder sister... In fact, Luo Qiu should know her, but he probably forgot."
Riko's big eyes, like Chitanda's, suddenly lit up, and she was very curious.
"She's the mother of a classmate in high school." Zi Ling's mother smiled and said, "But this kid kept to himself in high school... He wasn't in a very good state at the time, so I guess no one in the class noticed him. Once, because of a bullying incident at school, I was called over... That's how we got to know each other."
"Bullying?!!!" Li Zi's eyes widened immediately.
——There’s a picture, the high school version of Luo Qiu being bullied!
——A thin and taciturn boy was trapped in a corner. He was weak and helpless, and I couldn't help but want to support him!
"...No!" Zi Ling's mother rolled her eyes. "It was that eldest sister's child who was bullied. My son hit him and called the police without saying a word. Because this incident brought shame to the school, his parents were also called..."
"I see." Lizi nodded, "Then your baby has always had a strong sense of justice since he was young!"
"Like dad." Zi Ling's mother raised her lips slightly, "So, he will never be bullied. Don't be fooled by his tall and thin appearance. My husband and Ye Yan trained him a lot when he was little!"
Having lived in the same room for quite some time, Li Zi actually knew a lot about the precious child in Zi Ling's mother's family - after all, Zi Ling's mother would talk, although only a few words occasionally, but after doing it many times, she could weave a rough growth roadmap.
Suddenly, Zi Ling's mother slammed on the brakes, but the car seemed to have hit something, and only a slight "bang" was heard!
Zi Ling's mother's face suddenly darkened. She drove into a one-way street, one side of which was full of vehicles owned by residents of a nearby community... At this time, without paying attention to the horns of the cars behind her, Zi Ling's mother quickly took the seat belt and got off.
Li Zi followed quickly.
There was no one walking in front of the windshield just now, not the delivery guy who was peeking his head out... but he did knock something over.
"Sister, it's a Pomeranian!" After seeing clearly that the dog that was knocked down was a pet dog, Li Zi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "It looks like it has an owner. Could it be lost?"
There was still a collar hanging around the Pomeranian's neck, but there was no rope fastened. Not only was it not hung at all, but it had also fallen off... At this moment, it was lying on the ground, gasping for breath.
Zi Ling's mother looked around quickly and there was no one nearby who looked like the owner of the Pomeranian.
"Pear, send it to the car first." Zi Ling's mother said immediately: "Find the nearest pet hospital nearby."
At this time, Zi Ling's mother was very scared. She was glad that it was only a Pomeranian that was knocked down. If it was a child... the consequences would be disastrous.
But she made sure she drove normally, and drove very slowly after entering the one-way street - since she had solemnly promised Luo Qiu, she would [seal] herself.
"I found it. The nearest one is 1.4 kilometers away. It's a chain store... Can I make an appointment first?"
"Ok!"
……
The 1.4 kilometre journey was quick.
"Doctor, emergency!"
Ziling's mother and Lizi pushed the door open with the injured Pomeranian in their arms, "It was hit by a car!"
"Send it here for inspection first." A young lady wearing a mask said quickly: "How did you get it?"
Zi Ling's mother quickly recounted what happened, "I was driving very slowly, probably around thirty-five or thirty-six... I don't think it should be too serious, but the little guy looks like he's in pain."
"Wait a moment, the doctor will be here soon." The young lady quickly conducted a preliminary examination on the Pomeranian and drew blood.
When entering the door, Ziling's mother discovered one thing, that is, the lobby of this pet hospital was actually full of people... It seemed that the nursing ladies outside were too busy to handle it.
"As expected of a chain store, there are so many customers!" Li Zi leaned over to take a few more glances, then came back and sighed, "Another one came in."
The nurse who was examining the Pomeranian complained, "Yeah, I don't know what happened today. So many people got sick all of a sudden, and most of the initial symptoms were similar, fever, vomiting, convulsions..."
"Could it be some kind of livestock flu?" Zi Ling's mother said subconsciously.
The nurse didn't respond. She didn't dare say such words carelessly because she had to be responsible. So she drove the person out on the pretext of inspection.
Zi Ling's mother was not angry. She just took two masks when she passed by the consultation desk and gave one to Li Zi.
Since they couldn't find the Pomeranian's owner, they could only sit outside and wait for the result.
"Sister, why don't you try calling this number?" Li Zi took out a dog tag. "The one hanging on the Pomeranian's collar should be its home phone number, right?"
Zi Ling's mother quickly operated it, and after a while she asked in surprise: "It's down?"
"There's nothing we can do about it." Li Zi spread her hands.
At this time, a young girl came in, took out a British shorthair from the pet backpack, and cried, "Doctor, please save my stingy cat, it's dying!"
Zi Ling's mother and Li Zi looked at each other and both felt something was unusual.
……
……
[Qilin City], the branch office building of the Administration Bureau.
The office building was directly converted from a center for veteran cadres, and the activity venues at the back were converted into training grounds... The newly recruited students were being scolded on the playground at this time.
Wei Zidao withdrew his gaze.
It had been more than an hour since he returned from his field mission. When the seven frozen men entered [Qilin City], the icy power in their bodies automatically dissipated and they regained consciousness.
But when they saw that they were all being escorted, they all remained silent - as for the bats that were sent back, they were also sent for inspection immediately.
Wei Zidao frowned. In fact, for so many years, China has always been invaded by foreign creatures. Even if the customs is strictly guarding, there will always be some that slip through the net.
"Team leader, this is quite strange." A team member thought for a moment and said, "But based on the investigation of the scene and the evidence found on the bus, we can probably infer that this group of people released a large number of bats in the wild, and then they were spotted by a [Supernatural] and were picked up by them?"
Wei Zidao nodded. This was similar to what he had guessed. However, there were many Extraordinary people in Shenzhou who were good at using the power of ice. There were one or two hundred of them in the Administration alone... not to mention those who were hiding and had not been certified.
The call was made directly from the gang's phone, and it was made via a national bus, making it even more impossible to trace.
The group's phones were unlocked and all the chat records were checked, but there was nothing suspicious. However, some of the phone numbers that were called had already been cancelled.
"Are the inspection reports for those bats out yet?"
"It will take a while. It won't be that fast."
At this moment, Wei Zidao received a call, and his expression gradually became serious, "Okay, I got it, I will arrange for someone to go as soon as possible!"
"Team leader?"
"It's the minister's call." Wei Zidao sat down and said solemnly, "Something happened at the Hangzhou branch. We urgently need support. You must immediately organize three action teams and two logistical support teams. I will arrange a plane for you... I'll send the information to your phone later!"
"Three action teams? That means nearly half of us have already left..."
"We must make decisions in an emergency." Wei Zidao said in a deep voice: "Not only us, but also several branches around Hangzhou City will send people... You should also be careful when you get there."
"This... but there are not enough people for the mission now... right?"
Wei Zidao thought for a moment and said, "How many people are still watching Sun Xiaosheng at the [Pure Land of Bliss] bar?"
"Seven people, two of whom are supporting logistics!"
"Take two...three agents away, and one from the logistics department, and assign them to the temporary team." Wei Zidao thought for a moment and said, "We'll go again after this mission is over... Let the people who stay behind work harder these few days."
The team member nodded solemnly, and suddenly thought: "It seems that something serious has really happened. Will Consultant Long be here soon?"
Wei Zidao didn't say anything, because the director of the branch just mentioned on the phone that he hadn't contacted Consultant Long...
Manpower began to be deployed, and a short runway was built next to the training ground of the administration branch, and a transport plane had already landed.
With the rise of the extraordinary, the Shenzhou Administration has come to the fore, and its power in dealing with extraordinary events has become increasingly greater, and it can even deploy local violence agencies to provide assistance to a limited extent.
However, the monitoring department of the Shenzhou Administration has recently begun to be prepared.
After finishing all this, Wei Zidao went straight to the branch director's office. On the way, he ran into Liu Minghao who was hurriedly walking out of the office, still wearing his combat uniform.
"Brother Hao, are you leaving now?"
"Yes, I will lead the team this time." Liu Minghao nodded, "Please help me keep an eye on it for the next two days."
"Don't worry." Wei Zidao patted Liu Minghao on the shoulder.
He soon arrived at the branch director's office, only to see that the director was frowning and seemed to be looking at a document.
"Minister, the personnel have been arranged and are ready to leave at any time." Wei Zidao said seriously: "What is the specific situation in Hangzhou?"
The branch director took off his glasses at this time, "Let's not talk about this for now... take a look at this report."
Wei Zidao took it with suspicion and read it carefully. His expression gradually became serious. "Is there really a problem with this batch of bats?"
"The data sent by the laboratory cannot be wrong." The branch director nodded, and then asked: "Are you sure all the bats have been recovered?"
"Everything on the scene has been recovered." Wei Zidao responded quickly, then hesitated, "But I can't say whether there are any fish that have slipped through the net. After all, the scene was already like this when we arrived... But fortunately, we found it in time!"
"That's better." The branch chief took a deep breath, "We have to pry open the mouths of these people as soon as possible! Because we don't know if this is the first time they have done this... What if there has been something similar before?"
Wei Zidao took a deep breath and said, "Are you crazy? What good is there in doing this?"
"It's just that there's no benefit." The branch director laughed bitterly, "This is aimed at [Qilin City]... It seems that someone wants to destroy [Qilin City]!"
[New Human] Alliance?
Or is it an [inhuman] organization in a certain land with complicated relationships?
Wei Zidao thought of many things at once, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, I will do whatever it takes to pry open the mouths of these people... Since ordinary people are used in this operation, it won't be difficult to do. I will really ask someone to prepare the truth serum."
"It has to be quick!" said the branch director. "I have already requested several virus research experts to come immediately... The data has also been sent to various laboratories. Fortunately, according to preliminary analysis, this virus has a low resistance to cold, and Qilin City has just experienced a drop in temperature in the past few days..."

"Girl, here we are, remember to give us a five-star rating!"
Ji Ran got off the online taxi... She stretched herself. It took her the whole day to go there and back in order to get her thoughts clear.
It was already evening when we returned to Qilin City.
She looked at the clothes she had worn at least fifteen times this month and felt a little regretful... She had originally planned to get something to wear for everyday use.
Remembering that he hadn't written his diary today, Ji Ran hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to go back to the pet hospital to punch in... at least to ask Dr. Long if he had any veterinary problems today?
The apartment is very close to the hospital.
After a while, Ji Ran appeared in the lobby of the pet hospital.
However, the waiting area in the lobby was crowded with people... and Luo Pianpian was like a butterfly, shuttling among the crowd, doing various tasks in an orderly manner.
What a strong working ability - not counting the formal treatment, Ji Ran feels that Luo Pianpian can do the job of three of himself!
"Doctor Ji, you're back?!" Luo Pianpian was surprised and happy at this time.
Ji Ran put on his robe and walked over. "Come, I'll help you. Let's finish the work first."
The structure of Ah Xiruo's hospital is actually very complicated. Although it is a pet hospital, it is often seen that patients who come here do not bring their pets with them.
But the hospital does have the relevant qualifications... It treats both humans and animals. God knows how they got these certificates?
Anyway, everyone who has been treated says it is good.
People who bring pets have long been accustomed to meeting patients without pets here.
However, at this moment, there were not many [Demon] patients, almost all of them were residents nearby who kept pets.
Luo Pianpian has taught herself veterinary skills - after completing the adult college entrance examination, she studied for several degrees in succession and is currently speeding along on the road to certification and cannot stop at all.
"Eh? Doctor Ji, you can also stab dogs?! That's amazing!"
Seeing Ji Ran giving an acupuncture to a golden retriever in the treatment room, the little butterfly demon couldn't help but widen her eyes.
Ji Ran said calmly: "It's just some fur that's moved. It's for pain relief. I think this golden retriever is in pain... By the way, do you want a blood test?"
"Oh! Yes!"
"Strange, why are there so many sick pets here today?"
"I don't know. I've never encountered such a situation before." Luo Pianxian shook her head. She put her hand on the golden retriever's head. "But... I can feel that it is in pain... Doctor Ji, can you help relieve the pain for the other little guys first?"
"Leave it to me." Ji Ran nodded, then calmly said, "By the way, where's Doctor Long?"
"I don't know." Luo Pianxian was a little depressed at this time, "She didn't seem to come back last night, and I couldn't contact her..."
"...I'll give them acupuncture first!" Ji Ran said quickly.
As the medical prodigy of [Cang Lan], Ji Ran's acupuncture skills are so powerful that Ah Xiruo would probably feel inferior to him... After all, Ah Xiruo's treatment plans mostly rely on brute force to create miracles.
As the sick little guy gradually calmed down, Luo Pianpian finally breathed a sigh of relief... Ji Ran also wiped the sweat from his forehead at this time. This [Supernormal Forbidden Zone] was very magical. Although the cultivation in the body was still there, the body made people feel like that of an ordinary person and it was very easy to get tired.
“Excuse me, is there anyone here named Ji… Hey, you’re really here!”
Ji Ran was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously turned his head to look at the entrance, and saw a girl wearing a winter windbreaker, with a slim figure and pretty face, looking at him curiously.
"You are..." Ji Ran opened his mouth, "You are Xiao Su?!"
……
"For you." Xiao Su smiled and handed over a box of pastries. "This is a thank you gift for taking me in last night."
Ji Ran was a little surprised and said thoughtfully: "How did you know I was here?"
Xiao Su shrugged and said, "I saw a lot of cups, pens, toothbrushes and other things with the name of this hospital printed on them in your house... and you know medical skills, so I wondered if you work here, so I came to take a look."
"You can call me." Ji Ran shook his head.
"Life needs little surprises!" Xiao Su smiled and said, "But you've taken so much advantage of us, and so many daily necessities in your home are from the hospital. Aren't you afraid of being discovered?"
Ji Ran's ears suddenly felt slightly hot.
——But if Dr. Long paid her salary...
Where is the dignified [Princess of the Underworld]!

In the snowy courtyard, Boss Luo stood at the railing, looking at the artificial lake in front of him.
He stretched out his hand, and snowflakes fell into his palm and gradually melted... At this moment, it seemed as if something was sucked into the air.
Circling, converging...wisps of "gas" eventually gathered into a shape.
It was a piece of cell only the size of a fingernail, like some kind of cell magnified under a microscope... The activity of the cell was very low, even inert.
"Only a few months have passed here, and it seems that someone can't wait and wants to destroy the special [Qilin City]."
The maid slowly came over carrying a tea tray and hot tea.
Boss Luo waved his hand, and the strange cells in his palm melted away instantly. He picked up the hot tea, thought for a moment, and said, "Did Zhao Le take leave to come back to visit his sister these days?"
"I've applied for three days of vacation." The maid said quickly.
"Let him handle it." Boss Luo said directly, "After all, it's not a big problem, because [it]... has been guarding this place all the time."
"I'll arrange it right away." The maid nodded.
Boss Luo suddenly said, "Remember to give Zhao Le a week's vacation when you get back."
"He will definitely be very happy." The maid chuckled.
