Chapter 3760 Meeting
A special operations team against [inhumans] received a report at noon and quickly rushed to a manor in the suburbs.
The fire has completely engulfed the ancient manor.
“Is this poking a wolves’ nest?”
There were charred corpses everywhere. After evaluation, it was found that almost all of the people at the scene were werewolves, or descendants who had werewolf blood but had not yet fully awakened.
“It was like hell.”
The most shocking thing among all of this was the mountain of corpses piled up in the hall—of course, they had turned charred, like a coal mine.
The tragedy in the manor made the local special operations team confused and uncertain, so they could only report the matter immediately... Afterwards, there will naturally be more professional people to handle it.
"Why is your Captain Isuna missing?"
"Alas... our captain is organizing a funeral."
"I heard that a werewolf took revenge on Isuna last night. Who of hers died?"
"Boyfriend... but he has no family anymore." The team member who was asked shook his head and said, "Our captain is about to go to Geneva for training and can't be delayed, so we can only hold a simple funeral."
"What a damned world!"
"Yeah, damn it."
……
A funeral attended by one person.
Placing a white rose on the coffin, Isuna and the pastor closed their eyes and prayed - she was holding this simple funeral as John's wife.
"Pastor, I may not be able to visit him for a long time." Isuna whispered, "It may be impossible for me to come again forever. John likes snapdragons, I hope you can visit him more often."
"I will." The priest nodded.
Isuna didn't stay here for too long and left soon... She was originally scheduled to take a flight today, and the requirements of the new agency were very strict, so she didn't want to miss this opportunity.
She swore to kill all the evildoers.
After bidding farewell to Isuna, the priest immediately returned to the cemetery as there were still some follow-up matters that needed to be dealt with...but at this time, a plate of fresh snapdragons was placed in front of John's tombstone.
"Have any other friends come over?"
The pastor looked around in confusion...but the cemetery was extremely quiet, and no one had been there?
……
At this time, at a bus stop not far from the cemetery, a man in a black windbreaker was playing with a lighter in his hand deftly.
There won't be a shuttle bus passing by here for a long time. The sky is dark, and the metallic clanging sound of the lighter opening and closing seems particularly loud.
—John…
Ding.
The lighter closed instantly, and John raised his head. There was no one on the busy road, but he heard a voice calling - it was the whisper of the soul.
He instinctively walked out of the station and into the misty woods across the road.
Two figures were vaguely visible in the woods, and when they got closer, John could already see each other's faces clearly.
A calm and charming smile spread across his face, "You are still as beautiful as ever, Miss Youye... So, is this the new BOSS?"
"Hello, Mr. John." Boss Luo looked at this handsome man with a melancholy look between his eyebrows. "I have heard some things about you from Youye... So, how do you feel about this vacation?"
John shrugged and said, "I think it would be even more perfect if I hadn't woken up to find a different boss."
"John... Constantine." The maid's voice suddenly turned cold.
"Easy!" John waved his hand and said, "You know, I am a nostalgic person. Of course, I think if I accept this result immediately, it will appear that I am too ruthless... I think facing an employee like this, the new boss will also have some complaints about me... Who knows?"
"It doesn't matter." Boss Luo stopped the maid from saying anything else, "Mr. John, no matter what, you're welcome back."
John said calmly, "Yes, I will soon be thrown into the disgusting hell of working again."
The maid said, "John, you don't have to start your daily work right away. The master has a new task for you to handle."
John frowned in surprise.
A not-so-thick document slowly fell in front of him.
"Ok."
John simply reached out and took it down without opening it. He turned around, waved his hand, and left the woods. It was quite straightforward.
……
"I'm sorry, John...he used to be like this too."
The maid said apologetically.
"This is not a problem of your ability." Boss Luo smiled and said, "Besides, don't you think it's rare... Under the leadership of the previous store manager, so many black souls can still maintain their original personalities."
Whether it is Jin Shi, No. 18, or Zhang Ziru No. 9, they all have their own characteristics.
Of course, the people that Boss Luo found later were also very distinctive.
The maid nodded and said, "John is quite capable. In the past, his performance was able to be consistently ranked in the top five."
Boss Luo nodded.
Do you feel like this is a master at controlling points?
"It's getting late, let's go back."
In a few days' time it will be the traditional New Year festival in China.
During this period, Boss Luo...Luo Qiu didn't want to leave [Qilin City] for too long because of other things - after the New Year is over, it is almost time for him to leave.
After all, Captain Jack is still waiting in the [Void Sea]... The [Black Pearl] should be almost repaired, right?
The maid suddenly said, "By the way, tonight is the birthday of Mr. Lin of Ruo Pavilion, and he has invited Miss Ren to a banquet... She asked you if you want to go with her tonight?"
Luo Qiu couldn't help but blink.
Zi Ling's mother doesn't contact him anymore...
"If Pavilion..." Luo Qiu thought for a moment and said, "Then let's go."
……
……
……
……
[Blue Demon Realm], the primitive dense forest outside [Chentang].
Zi Ling's mother quickly took over her role again... She hasn't been online much during this period, but she still tries to find time every day to come online to take a look and harvest the crops.
That’s right, Zi Ling’s mother has turned this game into a harvesting game - as for the fact that she was unable to go online for several days because of going to the welfare home, she still felt like she was losing out.
The vegetable harvesters feel like they are losing out if they harvest one day less!
"Master! You are finally online!"
I saw that the character of the great god was sitting on a big rock and staring at the blue sky in a daze - this was obviously not a hosted state.
On the rock, Ah Xiruo heard the sound, turned around to look at Zi Ling's mother who was flying up... and suddenly felt a chill in her heart.
Anyway, I just slept with someone not long ago...
Emmmm…
"I thought you had quit the game!" Zi Ling's mother landed on a large rock, "Master, what have you been doing during this time?"
"I'm busy with something in real life." Ah Xiruo said calmly, "But it's all right now."
"Master, if you have difficulties in reality, don't hide them!" Zi Ling's mother said directly: "I know some people in [Qilin City]."
The time of being a game partner has been quite long, and Zi Ling's mother has long hinted that the great player should also be a permanent resident of [Qilin City].
Ah Xiruo shook her head, "I know you are very capable... But this is not a big deal for me. If I really need your help, then it is a very serious matter."
Zi Ling's mother nodded, "Just ask."
Ah Xiruo suddenly asked curiously, "Come to think of it, aren't you afraid that I'm a bad person in real life?"
Zi Ling's mother glanced at the ID name of the great god, smiled and said: "Even if he is a bad guy, he was harmed by a stinky man."
——Isn’t this what you said?
"Let's not talk about this anymore." Ah Xiruo shook her head, and then suddenly said, "By the way, didn't you say before that you wanted to interview some people from the Taoist Association? It just so happens that I know a Taoist priest, do you want to chat?"
“Yes!!!” Zi Ling’s mother immediately looked at Chitanda.
Wasn't this one of the main reasons why she came into this game?
"Then let's go back to the [Emerald Continent] first." Ah Xiruo smiled and said, "His account can't come to the [Blue World]."
"OK!" Zi Ling's mother nodded. "By the way, who is this Taoist priest? Is he powerful?"
"He's just an old man." Ah Xiruo said calmly, "I can't get in touch with real big shots. But he does know a lot of things that ordinary people don't know."
……
Zhongnan Mountain.
Taoist Academy under the name of Shenzhou Taoist Association.
From the official first external enrollment to now, the first batch of students can already start to report back to the Administration - currently the second batch of enrollment is also being planned.
"…What is the dean doing?"
Baijie Taoist, who is not only the dean of the Taoist Academy but also the president of the Shenzhou Taoist Association and the permanent honorary president, is now locking himself in the dean's office and turning on the "Do Not Disturb" function.
"I don't know." The vice president of the academy shook his head. "He suddenly asked someone to prepare an account for Emerald Fantasy for him early this morning... He created a temporary account. I don't know why, but he looked very anxious. By the way, what's the matter with you coming here?"
"It's like this." The teacher in the academy said quickly: "A student skipped classes without reason and left the academy without permission last night."
"Who?" The vice president couldn't help but frown.
Although the Taoist Academy is not under military management, the rules and regulations are very strict - this kind of behavior of leaving without permission must be taken seriously.
Because what is taught here are all orthodox Taoist techniques, if one of the students suddenly defected or even got into trouble outside, it would cause considerable damage to the image of the academy.
"Li Donglai!" the instructor said quickly, "I have called two students who are familiar with him to question him... They were the first to report that Li Donglai had left without permission."
"Bring him to see me." The vice president said directly.
……
Soon, the two students were taken to the vice president's office.
"This is Xiao Yuan, and this is Yi Shi." The instructor briefly introduced them, "Li Donglai is missing, and it was Xiao Yuan who first discovered him. They live in the same dormitory."
"Meet, meet the Vice President!"
Xiao Yuan and Yi Shi looked anxious.
"Don't be nervous, students." The vice president smiled and said, "You were able to report the fact that a classmate left without permission in the first place. This is very good and deserves praise... So, can you tell me now, what else do you know about Li Donglai? How is your relationship with him?"
Xiao Yuan glanced at Yi Shi and took the initiative to speak: "Deputy Dean, our relationship with Li Donglai is pretty good. In addition to practicing together, we are also on the same team in [Emerald Fantasy]."
"Go on." The vice president nodded.
Xiao Yuan said seriously: "Deputy Dean, I suspect that Donglai's secret departure this time may be related to his brother."
"His brother?" The vice president frowned and asked, "Who is his brother? Could he also have awakened his spiritual roots?"
"That's not the case." Xiao Yuan shook his head: "Donglai's brother is just an ordinary person. I heard that he seems to be a professor of fine arts... He seemed to have gotten into trouble with the law earlier and was arrested by law enforcement."
"That's it?" The vice president was stunned and couldn't help rubbing his brows. "Teacher Ding, if I remember correctly, the families of our students should have some special care, right? What's going on?"
Teacher Ding, who was asked, was unable to answer for a moment.
Xiao Yuan quickly said, "It's like this, the place where Donglai's brother got into trouble is quite special... It's [Qilin City]."
The vice president was stunned. [Qilin City]...is indeed a very sensitive place.
Especially since it is not only the forbidden city, but also the territory of Lord Dragon King… Countless eyes are always staring at this place.
What Li Donglai did didn't sound like a big deal... but there was no need for him to leave privately just because of this matter. There could be some trick involved.
All in all, it's better to be careful.
He pondered for a moment, "Teacher Ding, something has happened to the students in the academy, and we can't shirk our responsibility... Let's put it this way, you take the trouble to go there, understand the situation clearly, help those who should be helped, and bring back those who shouldn't be helped. Don't let anything go wrong."
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away!"
……
"Xiao Yuan, Yi Shi, why are you still here? Didn't I tell you to go back and practice first?"
"Teacher Ding, we would like to apply to go together to [Qilin City] this time. Donglai is our good friend after all..."
"This……"
"Teacher Ding, Ah Shi's family does business in [Qilin City]. If you take her with you, you'll have a convenient place to stay there. She's a local, so it'll be convenient for her to get things done there. It will definitely be worth it if you take us with you!"
"Well...Okay, I'll ask the dean for instructions later."
"Great!"
……
……
……
……
"…Sorry, sorry, I had to do an interview at the last minute and forgot the time!"
When Zi Ling's mother and Li Zi arrived at the Ruo Pavilion, Bob's family of three were already playing in the decorated private room.
"You're welcome! Sister Ling, it's my honor that you can come, even if it's just for a cup of tea!"
"hypocritical!"
Ah, Bob couldn't help but smile awkwardly and hurriedly urged Bob's wife to greet the guests.
Today [Ruo Ting] was only open for half a day, and the room was occupied in the afternoon, which was considered a benefit... Perhaps because of what he had experienced before, when he went in and out, Bob really cherished the time with his family.
"You eat the pear first...Mrs. Bob, lend it to your husband for a while!" Zi Ling's mother suddenly pulled Bob to the corridor outside.
……
"...Sister Ling, what do you want me to do?"
"How much do you know about the Inagawa Society?" Zi Ling's mother suddenly asked seriously.
Ah, Bob didn't seem surprised... Why did Ren Ziling only have him as an informant?
"Don't worry about this matter." Ah Bob whispered: "I can guarantee that this matter has nothing to do with Uncle Seven... He doesn't have that kind of power, does he?"
Uncle Seventh... Zi Ling's mother's adoptive father.
"I know." Zi Ling's mother nodded. "I heard that it was an [inhuman] incident on the island country. The entire area is currently still under lockdown. I just wanted to ask you if you know more."
Ah, Bob has some connections in the island country.
Actually, just treat it as gossip.
"I don't know much, I just heard it from others." Bob said mysteriously, "I heard that there is a huge cherry tree growing inside the blockaded area, a hundred meters high, right in front of the headquarters of the Inagawa Society..."
"Cherry tree?" Zi Ling's mother wrote it down on her phone's document. "Anything else?"
"And..." Bob was about to speak, but suddenly stopped, "Xiaoyun, what's the matter?"
Xiaoyun appeared at the stairs and said timidly, "Boss, Mr. Luo and his girlfriend are here..."
"Oh...you're here!" Zi Ling's mother nodded, gave Bob a look that indicated she wanted to talk back, and then ran downstairs excitedly.
Seeing this, Bob had nothing to say. He glanced at Xiaoyun, smiled and said, "Don't work anymore. Come in and celebrate with us."
Xiaoyun has been working here for almost two weeks. She is very polite and pretty, and quickly gained the favor of the employees.
"I...I don't need it." Huang Xiaoyun shook his head. "Boss, happy birthday. I'm going to work now."
"Ah," Bob opened his mouth but didn't stop shouting. He could only shake his head helplessly. It seemed that this kid... seemed to have some social anxiety, and it seemed that he hadn't left [Ruo Pavilion] for such a long time?
