Jiang Xuan soon discovered that there was something wrong with Bai Wu's eyes when he looked at him.
Although in a very short time, Bai Wu became normal, just like a real captain of the Survey Corps. When facing the visit of the Zhenyu Army, he was neither overly enthusiastic nor overly resistant.
Only that hint of surprise, although it disappeared very quickly, was still noticed by Jiang Xuan.
But this is a normal reaction. After all, it is unreasonable for me to come here to study at my age.
Bai Wu's inner surprise did not disappear, but as he looked at "Jiang Xuan", his expression returned to normal.
He thought of many ways of unfolding it, perhaps in the next area of the traction wheel, perhaps at the moment when the sixth veil of the tower was lifted.
But I never thought that I would meet this person on such an ordinary day.
There are many encounters in this world. If we were to define the encounter between Bai Wu and Jiang Xuan, it would probably be the encounter between a wise man and a fraudster.
“No wonder this person’s behavior is so irrational, but even I couldn’t have imagined it would unfold like this.”
Bai Wu smiled:
"Jiang Xuan?"
"Yes, I didn't expect the captain of Team 7 to be so young."
During these few days, Jiang Xuan did a few things that were not so Jiang Xuan-like, but he spent the rest of his time getting to know this person's life well.
He is now the real Jiang Xuan. Even his best friends and closest people cannot see through the fact that "Jiang Xuan" has a changed soul in front of him.
This is one of Cain’s pleasures. Once he gets a body, he will subconsciously make himself behave in the same way as the original owner.
Everyone has their own face, and deception skills need to be honed.
But he couldn't fool the white fog.
Although the Deceiver's sequence was ahead of the Eye of Preyor, and they were like destined opponents, the Deceiver could not hide information in front of the Eye of Preyor.
Life can be very absurd sometimes. As the saying goes, you can never find what you want, but you can only get what you want by giving away your life. Are you Jiang Xuan? Am I Jiang Xuan? You can be, and I can be, but what if you take off this name? After taking off this name, you are a handsome guy with a 90% appearance, and I am the detective Ayan. What about him? After taking off the name of Jiang Xuan, he is a little liar, but this cheap trick is useless in front of the detective Ayan. If you want to get more information, please go out of the tower with him.
There is no doubt that Jiang Xuan in front of him is Cain.
It was like a meteorite suddenly falling on a sunny afternoon. Bai Wu had never expected that he would suddenly meet the man whom the short guy wanted to chop into pieces.
It all makes sense.
No one would suspect him if he came to study as a Zhen Yu Army soldier. And the disappearance of the art teacher and three students might have been caused by Cain.
Of course, he couldn't actively solve the case.
The key to this case lies in the art teacher's body.
Bai Wu remembered that Cain had three souls. The first body died at the hands of Shorty, the second body committed suicide and was used to direct the spearhead towards the ruler. The third body should have been consumed during the military exercise between the two armies.
At least the third body at that time was not Jiang Xuan.
At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Bai Wu's mind, and finally his smile began to fade slowly, a very natural transition:
"Before I met you, I was a little surprised. After all, there are indeed study quotas, but no one has used them between the two armies for many years. After meeting you, I was even more surprised. You are older than I thought."
Bai Wu's words were very polite, and Jiang Xuan didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He didn't try to explain his surprise deliberately.
Both of them have good acting skills, but one knows everything and the other only knows half.
Let’s not talk about qualifications for now, but the information gap determines the starting point of the two people.
However, Bai Wu was convinced that the stupidest thing to do was to stabilize Cain and then join forces with Shorty to kill Cain.
Because for this man with three souls, death... is really just the beginning of the next journey.
"Life is like a game, and the game is about making interesting choices. If I continue to stay on the third floor in a daze, it would be comfortable, but it would lack some excitement. At my age, it's a little late to pursue excitement, but I can still catch up."
"A chief of the security department came to investigate the Legion's vanguard for the sake of excitement? Your lie is not very clever."
"Not clever means I didn't lie. Sometimes the truth is more like a lie than a lie."
"Really? Then you are a very honest person. Let's go in and talk. I know Captain Ming very well. He greeted me, so I naturally have to take care of him."
Bai Wu quickly brought Jiang Xuan into the seventh team branch.
The various team divisions of the Survey Corps are roughly divided into rest areas, training areas, file storage areas, interrogation team offices and related areas, back office team offices and related areas, and vanguard team offices and related areas.
Bai Wu sent Tian Xun away and took Jiang Xuan to the office.
"Sit down." Bai Wu sat down at the place where he usually worked. That was the place where Wujiu used to work.
Jiang Xuan sat in the same place where Bai Wu had gone to talk to Wujiu before.
During this time, he was always looking at Bai Wu, but Bai Wu didn't look at Jiang Xuan much. He was casually flipping through some information, as if he was doing work, but he was still chatting with Jiang Xuan.
Bai Wu did not pay special attention to Cain, although he was afraid in his heart because this man was very likely the most powerful monster in this area. But he had guessed that Cain obviously wanted to get close to here for some purpose, and he would not do anything until this purpose was achieved.
Just live a good life as Jiang Xuan.
"Originally there was no room left in the interrogation team, but I can arrange one. If you want to learn how to solve cases, it's actually not necessary. Tian Xun's level is not as good as yours."
Jiang Xuan smiled and said:
"What if I say... I already knew there was no position in the interrogation team, and I actually wanted to join the vanguard team?"
"That's true. After all, not all young people like to live on the edge of a knife. It's not so easy to recruit people for the vanguard team. There are not many new recruits every year. But you have to think about it. In the vanguard team, you have to perform field missions, which means investigation operations outside the tower."
"I know, that's why I made this choice. It's boring to stay in the tower forever. I'll take up the study quota first. If leaving the tower is more boring than I thought, maybe in three months, I will return to the third floor. But maybe, in three months, I will be a different person."
Normally, this statement might mean that in three months, he would be active as a member of the Survey Corps, but Cain was simply expressing his truest purpose.
Another identity is Bai Wu, the current captain of the seventh team.
"It's very dangerous to leave the tower. How much companion power do you have?"
"The Companion Force is at the fifth stage, first level. I know the Survey Corps is very powerful. Their cadres are not inferior to our Zhenyu Army, and those below them are far superior to our Zhenyu Army, but at least I won't be a drag."
The fifth-order companion power is the top combat power in any team, except for Team Seven, where the fifth-order companion power is almost the last.
Bai Wu naturally didn't believe that Cain's companion power was only at the fifth level. He showed an admiring expression:
"It seems you have been out of the tower before."
"I went out when I was young, and then I handled cases for a few years, and my character became more mature. But later, I saw a lot of dark truths, and I felt a little tired. It's better to leave the tower. After seeing so many people, sometimes I think ghosts are more interesting, haha."
Wow, the image of a person who has seen through right and wrong and is unwilling to get involved in dark crimes again has been established.
If I didn't know Jiang Xuan's true identity, I would have been fooled.
If it was a short guy, maybe he would have been taken in.
Of course, Bai Wu will also take him in.
He wanted Cain to leave the tower so that he could learn more about Cain, and Cain also wanted to leave the tower. Once he left the tower, he would be more confident in taking over Bai Wu's body.
"Indeed, our interrogation team has accumulated a lot of cases before, and I have helped to deal with them. Sometimes, what is more terrifying than the crime is the evil in the criminal's heart."
Bai Wu changed the subject and talked about eucalyptus:
"I don't know which bastard kidnapped the child of a high-ranking official. This case is now under our jurisdiction. It's all your fault. What do you think about this case?"
"I think it was that teacher who kidnapped the students." Jiang Xuan remained calm.
"Really? Tell me..."
The two people started talking about the case again.
If there had not been any hint from the Eye of Prell, Bai Wu discovered that if he had relied solely on his intuition, he would have felt it was strange, but he would never have associated the person in front of him with Cain.
Even some of the traits displayed by Cain, or the character he plays, are quite likable.
He hadn't felt like he had met a worthy opponent in a long time.
Cain discovered that Bai Wu was mature and steady, and did not look like a young man in his twenties at all.
He gradually understood why Gu Qingyu passed the captaincy to this young man, and he coveted this body even more.
The two chatted about the case and other things. Soon the topic became scattered, just like two people who had known each other for a long time, talking about whatever came to mind.
One was to understand the various behaviors and thinking logic of this body in advance, and the other was to try to get some words out of it.
But Bai Wu did have a lot of things to do today. When he finally managed to talk to Jiang Xuan about the case, from solving the case to the system, from the system to the relationship between the two armies, and from the relationship between the two armies to history—
Wujiu called.
"I'm going to take a call."
Cain nodded cooperatively and flipped through some books on the table.
"Captain, what's wrong?" Bai Wu was still used to calling Wujiu Captain.
"Prepare to go to the fourth floor and investigate the Corps headquarters building."
"What happened?"
"A new organization, said to be from the fifth floor, is a group of... very troublesome guys. It's hard to explain them right now, but they specifically asked to see the captain of the seventh team. Several masters of the Zhenyu Army are also here. After hanging up the phone, you have to bring Wu Rou and the others with you and come as soon as possible."
"good."
Bai Wu hung up the phone.
Jiang Xuan said:
"It seems that our conversation can only end here."
Bai Wu nodded and said:
"I will arrange for someone to take you to handle the formalities, and then you can get familiar with the environment between the various teams in the branch. I have something else to do, and although I really want to chat with you, work always comes at the wrong time."
“I understand.”
Jiang Xuan and Bai Wu are like a pair of good friends.
The adult world is very hypocritical. One wants to steal one's best friend, while the other is on guard at all times.
Bai Wu quickly sent a message to Tian Xun, asking Tian Xun to "pack up" Lilith and move her to Ai Sao's residence.
At the same time, someone was quickly arranged to take Cain to handle the formalities.
Bai Wu didn't feel relieved until he received the news from Tian Xun. He then began to gather the members of the vanguard team to head to the fourth floor.
…
…
High tower, elevator.
There were only five people in the huge elevator: Lin Wurou, Yin Shuang, Wang Shi, Shang Xiaoyi, and Bai Wu.
Qin Lin and Bai Xiaoyu have not yet been confirmed as full-time members, so they are not considered official members.
"So what exactly happened? Why did they suddenly call us to the fourth floor?" Lin Wu Rou looked at the white mist.
Bai Wu shook his head. He didn't know what had happened.
But from the captain's words, it seems that a new organization has been activated on the fifth floor. This organization should not belong to the Survey Corps or the Defense Corps.
But the opponent did not call up another team, but the seventh team that was the most diligent in leaving the tower, which means that this organization... maybe it came from the ruler's field organization
The captain especially mentioned that these guys were very troublesome.
I believe that there must be some very powerful masters in one of the teams under this organization.
The group soon arrived at the fourth floor.
The fourth floor, with many black towers, looks like a giant beast with spikes on its back.
When Bai Wu came here this time and saw the densely packed spires, he always felt like it was only half complete.
I have never had this feeling before, but it only happened this time.
At the Investigation Corps headquarters, in Qin Zong's office, when Bai Wu and others arrived, they saw an incredible scene.
"Is this all you have? Is this the top strength of your two armies? Are you kidding me?"
A giant man who was even more burly than Liu Mu looked at the people lying on the ground with a mocking expression.
Lin Wurou and others were stunned.
Because those lying on the ground are the most elite forces of the Survey Corps and the Suppression Corps.
The captain of the first team of the Investigation Corps is Meng Yuan, the captain of the fifth team is Long Xiao, the captain of the first team of the Suppression Corps is Yuan Du, and the captain of the fourth team is Tang Zhen.
The top fighters from both armies were lying on the ground at this moment, staring at the giant with gnashing teeth.
What was supposed to be a place for discussing business turned out to be a battlefield. Although I didn't see what happened with my own eyes, I could guess at a glance that a battle had taken place here.
"Liu Hu, I've told you to stop before you can do it. You've used too much strength. Stop being rude. This is a civilized place. Stop it."
Liu Hu was the sturdy man. He didn't care and sneered at the so-called top combat power of the tower.
On the other side, Qin Zong's face turned pale, and there was a hint of anger in Wujiu's eyes, but it was obvious that the legion commander and the deputy legion commander, as senior officials who seldom went out, were not within the scope of Liu Hu's challenge.
Seeing Bai Wu and the others coming, the person who spoke to stop Liu Hu turned to Bai Wu:
"Hello, my name is Yan Zizai, and you are the captain of Team 7, right? I heard that Team 7 of the Survey Corps is the strongest among the sixteen teams."
Yan Zizai's smile looked very elegant, and he looked somewhat similar to Yan Jiu. As a man, his face was as handsome as Lin Wurou's.
Although this person looked very graceful, Bai Wu could sense the arrogance in his eyes.
The surname Yan could be a coincidence, but the surname Yan is slightly similar to Yan Jiu. In Bai Wu's opinion, this is definitely not a coincidence.
This person is from the Yan family on the fifth floor of the tower, and the person just now may represent that there is also a Liu family on the fifth floor of the tower.
Bai Wu ignored Yan Zizai and looked at Wu Jiu and Qin Zong:
"Captain, what happened here?"
