The atmosphere in Central City is particularly tense.
Since yesterday, the entire central city has been under lockdown, and ordinary citizens are prohibited from leaving their places of residence.
The arrival of the Spring Meeting means that a large number of taboos will enter the central city.
"Editor-in-chief, the numbers are out! The sixth and fifth bases have arrived at the station now."
The man with freckles on his face and glasses looked young. He smiled and pointed to the projection screen, on which were marked six and five.
The man called the editor-in-chief had a distorted expression when he heard this. The Sixth Base had actually arrived
"Editor-in-chief, are we going down the tower to interview them now?" The freckled man with glasses was a little excited. He was a newcomer at the Central City Newspaper, and he got this precious interview opportunity just after one month of internship, all thanks to his father's strong financial support.
“No need to leave the tower.”
The editor-in-chief poured cold water on the excited intern. He put his hand on the intern's shoulder and motioned him to look at other newspapers around him.
There were nearly a hundred reporters in the entire watchtower, but unlike the noisy atmosphere in the past, these reporters were either adjusting equipment or standing in the watchtower to record videos. They did not rush down to interview like they did when the second base arrived.
"The Sixth Base is also here. Don't you understand what that means?"
The intern didn't understand what it meant at first. When he realized what was going on, his face turned pale and he remembered the unspoken rules in the industry.
Marshal Qin Qi of the Sixth Base, taboos unknown.
The most dangerous of all the marshals. Do not interview him unless necessary.
"I heard that Marshal Qin has hired a new butler. With the butler here, Marshal Qin shouldn't have any major problems...right?"
The editor sneered.
The water in the Sixth Base is deeper than imagined. If we really go down to take pictures, what if the Marshal loses control
No reporter in the central city was sure how Marshal Qin's three butlers died. What about the new butler? He was just a tool used by Marshal Qin to attend the spring meeting. Maybe he was useless.
"We just need to take a few photos on the tower and that's it." The editor-in-chief explained briefly and walked with the interns to the edge of the tower city. "It's been like this in previous years, and the Sixth Base understands it."
The intern had no choice but to concentrate on adjusting the camera data, looking at the camera screen.
An unknown amount of time had passed before the huge rolling shutter door on the No. 6 city wall slowly rose, and dozens of people in black military uniforms walked out through the gate. Their movements were in unison, and there was a strong aura of oppression around them, like a loyal and powerful pack of wolves following the figure in front.
The man in the lead had a cold temperament, and even through the screen, one could feel his sharp aura.
As if he had noticed something, the man's dark eyes suddenly glanced towards the watchtower.
Through the high-definition camera screen, the intern saw the calm yet intimidating look and subconsciously held his breath.
Marshal Qin should not be able to see him at such a long distance. Even though he knew this, he still couldn't help but feel frightened the moment their eyes met.
No wonder the editor-in-chief was reluctant to leave.
The intern's scalp instantly went numb. He complained inwardly, but his hands kept moving. The camera faithfully recorded the entire process of the Sixth Base Corps entering the central city.
It was at this moment that the intern noticed through the screen that among a group of officers in black uniforms, there was a fair-skinned young man in a tuxedo, walking on the right hand side of the marshal.
Is that the Marshal’s new butler
The intern subconsciously adjusted the camera and zoomed in on the young butler standing next to Marshal Qin. The next second, he noticed that the butler on the screen seemed to be looking at him as well.
"What's wrong?"
The editor noticed that the intern next to him was in a daze, poked him and asked.
"fine."
The intern was embarrassed to say that he felt like he was looking into the eyes of the Marshal's butler just now.
How is this possible? At such a long distance, it would be a relief if the marshal could discover him, after all, he is now recognized as the most powerful taboo master.
And that young man was just a weak butler, everything was his illusion, it was embarrassing to say it out loud.
"Nothing, I just think the Marshal's butler looks really exquisite." said the intern.
Hearing this, the editor looked at the young man who had just reached the Marshal's shoulder on the screen and nodded in agreement: "He is indeed the most handsome of the Marshal's butlers. Remember to take more pictures of him."
Just taking a picture of this face can increase the readership of their newspaper.
On the other side, Yaxiao curiously tugged at Qin Qi's sleeve, and when Qin Qi looked over, he asked, "What is that white tower, Marshal?"
As soon as he passed the city wall, Yaxiao felt that there were many people in the tower watching this place.
"The watchtower in the central city is now full of reporters." Qin Qi replied with a faint expression.
Yaxiao suddenly realized, then lost interest and followed the marshal closely.
The adjutant Mist noticed the exchange between the two and nudged Soran next to him with his elbow. When Soran turned his head, his eyes curved under his gold-rimmed glasses and he lowered his voice and said:
"See? I told you before that the Marshal's patience with Ya Xiao was extraordinary."
The previous housekeepers would not have received such a gentle response.
Soran was not interested in this topic and ignored it.
Mister's voice was very low, but Yaxiao and Qin Qi, who were not far away, could hear it.
Yaxiao flicked the tip of his tail, his eyes a little confused. Was the Marshal very patient with him
He unconsciously looked at Qin Qi beside him.
Qin Qi felt calm. In his opinion, Yaxiao was very smart and it didn't matter if he was a little more patient.
Yaxiao withdrew his gaze and felt much more excited. It was a good thing that the villain was patient with him. This way, he could absorb the demon value with more confidence!
Thinking of this, Yaxiao happily followed Qin Qi and got on the hovercraft.
A few months ago, Yaxiao had been living in the central city, but because he was anxious to earn demon points, he had no interest in paying attention to the central city.
He tilted his head slightly to look out the window, taking his first good look at Central City.
Compared to the deserted border base, even though the central city is under lockdown, you can still see prosperity and bustle from every corner.
This is a city protected by a border base, where all human civilization will be nurtured and developed.
Of course, even after watching it carefully, Yaxiao still prefers the Sixth Base.
Along the way, Qin Qi was looking out the window, not knowing what he was thinking. The hovercraft gradually accelerated and finally stopped in front of the building prepared for various bases in the central city.
"Let's go."
Qin Qi said calmly.
Yaxiao and his two adjutants followed closely behind Qin Qi. As soon as they got out of the car, they heard a familiar male voice.
"Didn't your base tell us to wait for us?"
Wista's voice was somewhat indignant. He wore sunglasses and was followed by a group of subordinates in blue military uniforms. He kept talking, "We arrived at the Central City together, but your base just left us behind! Did you feel wronged by entering the Central City with our Fifth Base?!"
"Why is there no sense of ceremony!"
Qin Qi stopped and asked calmly, "Are there any problems?"
Wista choked.
"No."
The two marshals met up and entered the building together.
According to regulations, all people from the base who come to the conference live in this building.
Yaxiao happily talked to Yan Chi, Vista's housekeeper.
Yan Chi was a tall and strong man who talked nonstop all the way, just like his employer.
"By the way, Yaxiao, which room do you live in?"
"I live on the tenth floor, 23."
Yaxiao said with his eyes curved.
"I live in room nine on the fifth floor. You can come and hang out with me when you're free." Although Yan Chi had only chatted with Yaxiao a few times, he liked the other's outgoing personality and regarded Yaxiao as a friend.
"OK."
Yaxiao agreed immediately, and as if he had thought of something, he curved his eyes and said to Sheng Cheng beside him: "Sheng Cheng, where do you live? Let's play together then."
Sheng Ben was distracted at the side. When he heard this, he felt a little scared, but he still said with a smile, "It should be number six on the ninth floor."
"Okay, I'll remember that."
Yaxiao said seriously.
Being remembered is not good news.
Sheng Cheng forced a smile.
Although he had a special purpose in asking Sheng Cheng's room number, in order not to arouse suspicion, Yaxiao did not forget to ask about the rooms of the other two housekeeper assistants, Emily and Wittin.
Butler Yan Chi likes to be lively. When he saw Yaxiao asking three people for their room numbers, he patted Yaxiao on the back and laughed a few times: "When you look for them, remember to bring me with you."
"Gab is coming with the Marshal of the Eighth Base. They will both arrive tomorrow. We can go find him together tomorrow."
"Burton will also arrive tomorrow, but we won't bring the steward of the Fourth Base." Yan Chi complained: "It's enough to meet them at the spring meeting. I don't want to meet them in private again."
"Okay."
Yaxiao did not object.
On the other side, Qin Qi and Westa were also attracted by the noisy voices of the butlers not far away.
"Yan Chi should like your butler very much." Westard didn't know when he started knitting a scarf again, and his tone was quite emotional:
"You know, Yan Chi looks easy to get along with, but he's actually a troublemaker. Whenever I ask him to do something beyond the scope of his duties, he asks me to pay more."
Qin Qi's dark eyes looked at Yaxiao who was smiling in the crowd.
Yaxiao is indeed very likable.
This is a fact.
Because they were in a hurry, it was almost evening when they arrived at the central city. Yaxiao did not stick with Qin Qi for a long time. He returned to his room at the villain's sleeping time.
[Host, thank you for your hard work. ]
The system welcomes the host back as usual.
Yaxiao flicked the tip of his tail, his blue eyes slightly curved, "Fourth Uncle, how is your investigation going?"
[According to the information you provided, I have successfully found the room where Sheng Cheng is.] The system said: [Host, do you need me to monitor him?]
"right."
Yaxiao nodded, "I want you to help me monitor Shengcheng."
The system hesitated: [But host, don't you want to protect your adjutant Soran? I'll monitor Soran, and if Soran is in danger, wouldn't it be better to notify you immediately? ]
"Fourth Uncle, Soran's death was caused by Sheng Cheng's action in the middle of the spring meeting."
Yaxiao sat cross-legged on the bed and patiently analyzed the plot with the system. "There won't be any danger to Soran during this period. Even if we monitor him, we can get very little information."
"On the contrary, I am more curious about Sheng Cheng's next move."
In the original plot, Sheng Cheng was hunted by the Sixth Base, and by the time the protagonists rescued him, the spring meeting was nearing its end.
According to Sheng Cheng, five days before he met the protagonists, he accidentally saw Marshal Qin's adjutant Soren losing control.
At that time, the out-of-control Sauron almost killed him. At the critical moment, the other party seemed to have some problems with his body. Sheng Cheng took the opportunity to fight back, but because he was too nervous, he accidentally killed Sauron.
Yaxiao pointed at the system panel and motioned for his fourth uncle to look at this passage.
Sheng Cheng's pale face was full of pain: "Although I wanted to kill Qin Qi, I didn't want to hurt innocent people. Sauron lost control and wanted to kill me. I was too scared. In order to stay alive, I had to fight back. It was my fault for over-defending, but I didn't want this to happen. He was my former colleague!"
"The people from the Sixth Base were indiscriminate and didn't even give me a chance to explain. They directly issued a hunting order against me. Especially Qin Qi's adjutant, Mist, who wanted to skin me alive."]
This is what Sheng Cheng said in front of the protagonists, and Yaxiao remains reserved about this.
Soran is a taboo person numbered BFN10. He will lose control if he smells a pungent smell, so he always wears a gas mask. Even if the air in the mask is thin, Soran never takes it off.
Mist said that Soran would only take off his gas mask when he was alone in a closed environment at night.
It was strange that Soran, who was so strict with himself, would suddenly lose control.
Yaxiao was more inclined to believe that Sheng Cheng was about to do something detrimental to the Marshal when he was caught by Sauron, and in order to avoid being discovered by others, he directly killed Sauron.
"Fourth Uncle, please help me keep an eye on Sheng Cheng."
[OK!]
After hearing Yaxiao's explanation, the system was still a little confused, but it did not ask any more questions. After agreeing, it directly cut off the connection.
Yaxiao was the only one left in the room.
His blue eyes were a little vacant, staring absentmindedly at a corner of the room. At this moment, he suddenly thought of something. His tail, which was glowing with a faint blue light, swayed a few times in the air. Yaxiao raised his hand and slid the plot panel.
The screen scrolls down.
Finally he stopped at one place and looked up at the sentence above.
[Weishi did not completely believe Sheng Cheng's words.]
He needed to find evidence to verify the truthfulness of Sheng Cheng's words and prove that Sheng Cheng did not kill innocent people indiscriminately.
A lot has happened in Central City lately.
As the owner of the Wanshiwu, it was not difficult for Wei Shi to find a person's information.
There is no major problem with Sheng Cheng's information.
Wei Shi's eyes passed through Sheng Cheng's trajectory in the central city. Sheng Cheng rarely went out. The only accident was that he was dragged by his colleagues to join an entertainment organization. After that, Sheng Cheng accidentally killed Soran and was wanted by the Sixth Base...
Wei Shi had many friends in this organization, and he knew that Sheng Cheng had indeed joined just an ordinary entertainment club.
At present, Sheng Cheng is indeed as he said. Although he hates Marshal Qin and even planned an assassination, he will not attack other innocent people.]
The white fingers tapped on the entertainment organization.
Entertainment organization
Yaxiao wondered thoughtfully, could this be related to Sheng Cheng's action of killing Soran
