Sunken Huihai Valley Branch.
Wei Huaqian looked at the room full of "products" in front of him with a headache and a rare expression of embarrassment.
Those products are amulets with low-key colors, ranging from wood carvings with strong ethnic style, common national style hangings, to foreign-style "royal guards", the styles are almost the same. These gadgets don't look expensive, and their audience covers all groups of men, women, and children.
This was the scene he had been waiting for for a long time, but when it came to the first step of launching the plan, Wei Huaqian was hesitant.
One careless move and you lose everything. Given his age, if this sacrifice fails, he will not get a second chance. Maybe those "suppliers" who have no connection with the other side will continue to cooperate with the Sinking Society in the future, but that has nothing to do with him, Wei Huaqian.
He knew that now was not the time.
The research in Gengsheng Town failed to conclude normally, the body Zhong Cheng said was missing, the situation in Shi'an has not been completely clear, and Xiang Jiang has not been able to completely replace Fu Xingchuan's position. This is really not a good time to start planning.
"If you continue to hesitate, you will never have a chance in this life."
Shen Mo casually picked up an exquisitely embroidered amulet and waved it in front of Wei Huaqian.
"When Shi'an catches up with the Sunken Society's research progress on 'The Other Side', the deck in your hand will be no different than useless. Instead of looking forward and backward, it is better to play it directly. As long as it succeeds, you will purely earn - your own The ability belongs to the Charon faction. Isn’t it your goal to become a true Charon?”
The first call was made to the Sinking Club's contact group at Nightwalker.
Wei Huaqian's eyes were fixed on the man's back until Shen Mo disappeared at the door. He finally took out his cell phone and made two calls.
"The things are ready. You can disperse according to the old method, but do it more cleanly this time. The time limit is one week, and within one week, all these gadgets must find their owners."
Wei Huaqian looked unhappy.
"Hey, it's me. Mr. Qiu isn't here?... Well, Mr. Le can do it too. Just as agreed, I'll let you know."
Wei Huaqian rubbed a wooden charm carved into a cartoon rabbit in his hand, his voice cold.
Wei Huaqian stared at Shen Mo for a long time.
Shen Mo is in his sixties this year, but still maintains the appearance of about thirty years old. This person spends most of his time on the other side, and the physical wear and tear on his body is minimal. This is not the case for Wei Huaqian. In recent careful physical examinations, his body has shown all kinds of bad signs.
“…that’s just the way it is.”
"You can stand and talk without pain in your back, 'old-timer'."
"...I will not report the initiation of sacrifices to the headquarters. Let's each take a step back. I will use Haigu City for the pilot first."
Shen Mo withdrew his hand and shrugged: "No. It's just that I was born in Shi'an and know Shi'an well."
Wei Huaqian took off the tool bag from Shen Mo's hand and said in a cold tone: "Although the pollution sources in these things are carefully prepared and the impact is not obvious, you'd better not move around... You have been urging me to take action early, except for guessing. , is there any definite evidence?”
The sacrifice was completed, and Yu Shenmo was just the icing on the cake. After this failure, Shen Mo could wait another thirty years, so he would naturally be relaxed.
"The sacrificial ceremony will start first in Haigu, and I hope you all will cooperate. If everything goes well, the 'divine descent' you expected can be completely completed."
Yin Ren kept looking at the soft beef and mutton rolls on the plate with his peripheral vision, and his heart was bleeding.
The red soup in the pot was boiling, and the air was filled with the scent of chili and butter. Unfortunately, no one at the table moved their chopsticks.
After saying that, he didn't intend to listen to the reaction on the other side of the phone, so he called a second time.
On the ground, in a private room of a hot pot restaurant, four people looked at each other.
Separated from the gurgling pots, Yin Ren and Zhong Chengshuo were sitting at both ends of the square table, and on the other side were Li Nian and Fu Xingchuan in disguise. Today, Fu Xingchuan did not wear his usual long gown and earrings, but was dressed very simply and low-key. This man's long hair was stuffed into his hat, and with his pale, unshaven face, Comrade Fu Xingchuan had the aura of a wanted fugitive.
"Oh, it just keeps breaking." Shen Mo shook his head and walked out of the room.
"Now that the results of your experiment have come out, a lot of things can be explained much easier. The only thing we both want to add here is that the messy rabbit in my memory, and the black sea where the rabbit is connected, is the one next to me. "
Zhong Cheng said sincerely and nodded in agreement.
"Intelligence sharing is very important." The former "Black Rabbit Sea" politely added, "After all, my research time will be limited in the future, and I will also need scientific research support from the security side."
Li Nian nodded expressionlessly, while Fu Xingchuan stared deeply at the rolling red pot and flicked through the menu for a while: "This store doesn't have rabbit heads? What a pity."
"This time I am being honest with you two, mainly because I have an urgent problem here. Once this matter is solved, I am very willing to cooperate with Shi'an in research on the other side."
Hearing Zhong Cheng's words in an unusually serious tone, Fu Xingchuan's eyes finally left the menu and his eyebrows twitched: "A burning question?"
Sitting in front of him were two thousand-year-old beasts that were more ferocious than evil spirits. He really couldn't think of an urgent problem for these two people - for one of the beasts, the house and household registration had been settled, and the remaining Yangshou It's probably enough to kill a hundred of myself.
The word "extremely urgent" is a bit far away from these two bastards.
"I must solve the disappearance case of Zhong Chengfeng 28 years ago as soon as possible. My parents made a wish to me, and I agreed. But they are old and don't know how long they can wait." At this point, Zhong Cheng said lowering his eyes.
"They are all relatively staunch scientific types, and Yin Ren's healing spells have limited power. If they pass away one day, that wish will never be fulfilled. The research on Yuanwu will take a long time, so I can only do it first Relevant research will be postponed.”
Fu Xingchuan: "... After living for so long, I never thought that I would participate in a topic of this level. You two are so generous."
"God" received the anxiety of making a wish but not being able to fulfill it immediately. He didn't understand it, and he didn't want to understand it. There was no such wish-making KPI even within the Sinking Club. Fu Xingchuan didn't know what to think for a while.
Just like the world's richest man worrying about asset allocation in front of him, Fu Xingchuan's palms felt a little itchy and his hands gradually clenched into fists.
"But this is just right. In the last joint exercise, the results of the above discussion were also settled."
But as a calm adult human being, Fu Xingchuan maintained a calm expression.
"There was an incident about the abandoned building of the hospital. Professor Li fought hard and won the winning reward for the Haigu branch - two million per person, plus the qualification to be directly promoted to the second-level investigation team. Since the competition did not end normally, the remaining two groups also had One million condolences per person.”
Yin Ren instantly felt that the hot pot was even more delicious. Shi'an and the two were still aware of current affairs. Could it be that this was preferential treatment from the ancestors
However, before his smile could fully unfold, Li Nian's next words made him freeze in place -
"The Class B investigation team is qualified to independently investigate some dusty special cases. The focus on Zhong Chengfeng is too conspicuous, so it is better to investigate together - in the God's Descendence twenty-eight years ago, Zhong Chengfeng was not the only missing case."
Daqing is more convenient to use. Modern people really don't miss the past. The joy in Yin Ren's eyes gradually turned into grievance.
However, when someone is short-handed and soft-spoken, the Great Heavenly Master, who has short hands and a soft-spoken mouth, has just spread his palms after saying that he will use other people's resources.
After catching the information, Zhong Chengshuo and Yin Ren's heads were instantly connected.
The information shows a woman with a ferocious face, heavy makeup and a big smile. She looks more like a member of the Sinking Society, but her profile clearly identifies her as An.
Meng Huai, the previous generation's "black seal" minister of the Emergency Management Department, was considered Fu Xingchuan's senior.
She looks quite young.
"Meng Huai also disappeared when the gods descended twenty-eight years ago. She was only twenty-one years old at the time and had just been promoted to the head of the Emergency Management Department." Li Nian introduced calmly, "Group Nine can use this This incident was used as a cover to investigate Zhong Chengfeng’s disappearance—as far as I know, they were both near the same nursing home when they disappeared.”
Glancing at Minister Meng who was smiling brightly, Zhong Cheng sighed and said, "I understand."
Fu Xingchuan secretly glanced at Li Nian several times, and took a long while before answering: "You have a case to investigate on the surface, and Lao Li can use the resources of Zhi'an on the surface. But you two still... well, keep a low profile. Zhong Cheng said Don’t tell Group Nine about it yet.”
Facing the two humanoid bombers, he said this without confidence.
Even if he has his own ghost contract, with Yin Ren's strength, even if he really breaks the contract, it won't hurt him too much. If the two ancestors are unhappy, it is not impossible to change Haigu City back to what it was a thousand years ago.
"You know, you have to guard against Shi An and Shen Shen Gui, right?" Yin Ren picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks seriously, "The bonus is in place, everything is easy to talk about."
Fu Xingchuan, Li Nian: "..."
Li Nian: "I will talk to the personnel."
"Thank you both for your understanding." Zhong Cheng said and lowered his head solemnly, "We will also investigate Ms. Meng Huai's case seriously."
Li Nian nodded slightly and moved the hand on his knee slightly.
"Okay, hurry up and eat." Fu Xingchuan glanced at his old partner again and changed the subject loudly, "If you don't eat, the bottom of the pot will be burned dry."
What a genius of the Fu family, what a monster. To this day, Fu Xingchuan's mentality feels strangely peaceful.
Maybe Li Nian was right. It might not be a bad thing for these two old guys to stick to Shi'an.
Somewhere in Haigu City, Lu Xiaohe was humming a song and frying eggplants at home.
All the money she earned was used to treat her mother and hire caregivers to help her. The home was still crowded and poor. However, compared to before, Lu Xiaohe's face now looks less gloomy.
The Great Heavenly Master said that when the time comes, he will help her treat her mother. My mother is an ordinary person who is afraid of ghosts and worships gods, so there must be no problem.
Her mother will soon be free from the disease.
Just hearing a creak, Lu Xiaohe's father came through the door carrying two bags of fruits and vegetables. He smiled at Lu Xiaohe in front of the stove and went to his mother's room first.
"Wife, look."
He took out an exquisite amulet from his inner chest pocket.
"I asked a friend to get it from a master. He said it is very effective!"
