Cangnan City, a high-rise building.
squeak.
The door was slowly pushed open, and Zhao Kongcheng walked in dejectedly, sighing from time to time.
"Old Zhao, what's wrong with you?"
The five people sitting in the room asked in surprise when they saw Zhao Kongcheng's appearance.
"Did you get hurt last night?"
"Looking at this expression, the possibility of falling out of love is relatively high..."
"Damn it, Lao Zhao, isn't your wife going to divorce you?"
"Don't talk nonsense."
The five of them started to guess what they said. After a while, Zhao Kongcheng, who was silent, sighed.
"Am I really...that unattractive?"
“…”
The five people rolled their eyes in unison, pretending not to hear this sentence, and continued to work on the things at hand, some were sharpening knives, some were cleaning guns, some were playing with mobile phones, and some were sleeping...
"No, I'm asking you very seriously!" Zhao Kongcheng was anxious.
Seeing that no one paid attention to Zhao Kongcheng, Hongying, who was cleaning the gun, sighed, "Brother Kongcheng, are you stimulated?"
"So be it." Zhao Kongcheng paused, "I met the owner of the golden forbidden ruins last night."
After hearing these next words, everyone suddenly raised their heads, stopped what they were doing, and their eyes began to shine.
"The guy who is suspected of being an agent of Seraph?"
"Um."
"Is he very strong? Who is he?"
"You are thinking too much." Zhao Kongcheng shook his head, "He is just an ordinary high school student. The 'Klein' level power fluctuation should be just the remnants of the power left by Seraph on him. He is still a young man who has just stepped into the world." A newcomer to the world."
Hearing this, several people showed a little disappointment in their eyes.
"I thought a strong man of 'Klein' level came to Cangnan City..."
"But yes, if that extremely dangerous god really chooses to act as an agent and grows to the level of 'Klein', it's impossible for the higher-ups not to know about it."
The man sitting on the sofa narrowed his eyes slightly, "Anyway, Seraph has chosen an agent and given the Divine Ruins. This is a big deal. We need to report it to the senior management quickly."
"By the way, Lao Zhao, now that you have met him, what about the others? Didn't you bring back such an important person?"
"He ran away..." Zhao Kongcheng said quietly, "He told me to get my schoolbag, and then ran away while I was distracted."
"..." Everyone was speechless.
Just when a few people were about to complain, the door to the room was opened again.
A man wearing a dark red cloak walked in, with blood still on his face, and his steps were as heavy as lead.
Seeing this man, everyone including Zhao Kongcheng stood up immediately.
"team leader!"
"Captain, are you okay?"
The captain waved his hand, took off his blood-stained cloak, and sat down on the small stool next to the door. There was indescribable fatigue between his brows.
"I'm fine, but... the Ghost Faced King ran away."
The faces of several people suddenly became serious.
The captain continued: "I chased the Ghost Faced King all the way to the suburbs outside the northern city last night and had a fight with it. It was seriously injured and later managed to escape without hesitation at the risk of injuring itself."
"So, the Ghost Faced King may have escaped from Cangnan City now?"
"No, not necessarily." The man sitting on the sofa suddenly said.
Everyone looked at him, and the captain's brows raised slightly, "Tell me about it, Shonan."
Wu Xiangnan stood up slowly, took out a map of the surrounding areas of Cangnan City from under the sofa, and unfolded it on the ground.
"Cangnan City is located in a remote location and is far away from nearby cities. The captain and the Ghost Faced King fought in the northern suburbs last night. In addition to Cangnan City, the nearest city there is also dozens of kilometers away." Wu Xiangnan Draw a circle on the map.
"Then what happened?" Hongying's eyes were full of doubts.
At this time, the captain's eyes gradually lit up, "The Ghost Faced King was seriously injured. He will not be able to cross such a long distance before he recovers his strength."
Wu Xiangnan continued what the captain said: "If the Ghost Faced King wants to regain his strength, he can only rely on cannibalism, which means..."
"It will definitely come back to Cangnan City?"
"That's right."
Zhao Kongcheng frowned slightly, "But Cangnan City is so big, we have no idea where it will appear from."
"Sewer." Wu Xiangnan pushed up his glasses and drew a curve on the map with a red pen. "Ghost Faced Man likes to get into sewers, and Ghost Faced King escaped through sewers before. There is only one sewer connecting the suburbs of Beicheng. In other words, the place where the Ghost Faced King appears is probably somewhere along the path of this sewer."
"Immediately send people to search along this sewer. This time, we must not let it escape!" A cold light flashed in the captain's eyes and he immediately ordered.
"receive!"
"By the way, there is one more thing." Wu Xiangnan turned to look at Zhao Kongcheng, "We must bring Seraph's agent back. His potential is too great and he must not fall into the hands of the Ancient God Church! From now on In a sense, this matter has a higher priority than eliminating the Ghost Faced King!"
Zhao Kongcheng immediately puffed up his chest: "Leave this matter to me, I must catch this kid back with my own hands!"
"Didn't he run away? Can you still find him?" Hongying whispered.
"He is wearing the uniform of No. 2 Middle School. I blocked him at the school gate today. I don't believe I can't block him!"
A confident smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Kongcheng's mouth.
…
"Brother, why don't you go to school today?"
Yang Jin asked curiously as he looked at Lin Qiye, who was neither wearing school uniform nor carrying a school bag.
"I have something to do today, so I won't go now." Lin Qiye opened the door while putting on her shoes, "Auntie is still sleeping?"
"She just came back an hour ago."
"I understand. Go to school early. You can't imitate me."
"OK."
Lin Qiye closed the door, silently took off the black satin from his eyes and put it in his pocket.
His eyes recovered, but he hasn't told his aunt and Yang Jin yet. First, because his aunt worked the late shift last night, the two of them didn't see each other at all.
As for the second point, Lin Qiye had just obtained these eyes and was still unable to control the power in his eyes well. The golden light would still suddenly appear from the bottom of his eyes sometimes. Although it was not very obvious, if his aunt and the others saw it, they would definitely Forcing yourself to have your eyes checked again is a waste of money.
He wanted to wait until he could fully control his eyes before announcing this.
But now that he was out of the house, there was no need for Lin Qiye to wear black satin, as it would be too eye-catching.
Lin Qiye took out the sunglasses Yang Jin bought for himself from his pocket, put them on, and walked towards the bus stop with long strides.
After more than an hour of turbulence, Lin Qiye finally arrived at his destination.
Sunshine Mental Hospital.
The last time Lin Qiye came here was ten years ago.
In the past ten years, Lin Qiye has changed a lot, and this mental hospital has also changed a lot.
All the old walls have been renovated, the gate is twice as wide as before, two modern high-rise buildings have replaced the original three-story building, and even the six characters "Sunshine Mental Hospital" have been gilded!
Standing at the gate, Lin Qiye could no longer connect the modern hospital in front of him with the small building in his memory.
The only thing that hasn't changed is probably the old man guarding the door.
It's just that his figure is much stooped and his hair is much grayer.
The old man seemed to have seen Lin Qiye. He narrowed his eyes and raised his right hand to point at Lin Qiye...
Just when Lin Qiye thought that the old man still remembered him and was about to say hello,
The uncle shouted loudly:
"That silly boy over there! You're blocking the car behind you!"
