419 Lin Ye Is Bountied! (2)
Zha Gu, who only had one head left, looked at Lin Ye and opened and closed his mouth.
“You… you’re Lin Ye… benefactor… help…”
Hearing Zha Gu’s intermittent answer, Lin Ye nodded in satisfaction.
Then, he looked at the Nightmare Tapir.
The latter understood and immediately raised his nose to the sky.
Zha Gu, who had just “seen the light again”, fell asleep again.
At the same time, outside the control area near the southern city wall of Qingquan City, Feng Yu brought some researchers in army uniforms and gla.s.ses to observe a few people who looked a little uneasy at the edge of the control area at the door.
These people had been hired by Feng Yu to do experiments.
Ever since Wu Yan’s a.s.sa.s.sination yesterday, this area had been paid attention to by the army of Clear Spring City.
Then, some people who had never entered and had even partic.i.p.ated in the construction of the controlled area back then discovered that something was wrong—
An additional three-story building appeared.
As for those who would inexplicably fall asleep after entering, they had never mentioned this building before coming out.
This immediately attracted Feng Yu’s attention.
When he discovered that the range of the unconsciousness seemed to be at the edge of the entrance of the controlled area, Feng Yu directly pulled a few people over to do experiments.
He wanted to see what was going on. At the same time, he wanted to observe if there was any pattern to this sleep.
The heavens did not disappoint those who worked hard.
Feng Yu and the experts beside him really saw some clues.
“If anyone enters, they will immediately fall asleep.
“As long as no new people enter, they won’t fall asleep again for the time being.
“However, most of the memories of these people who have experienced sleep have been hinted at or tampered with.
“Permanently?”
The expert shook his head.
“I’m not sure yet, but we’re trying to awaken it and discovered that it’s useful. This means that there’s a high chance that it’s temporary.”
“General, should we directly blow it up?”
“Otherwise, if this continues, those customers will be unhappy.”
A middle-aged team leader standing beside w.a.n.g Zhi could not help but stand up and make his suggestion.
Then, as expected, he was spat at.
“Blow it up?!”
“Are the customers going to be happy about that”
“Wu Yan is dead. Who still has the ability to get the mental controller out?!”
At this point, Feng Yu still did not vent his anger.
“Get those people to stay at the side!”
“If you make any more noise, I’ll let them sleep for the rest of their lives!”
“If you give them face and call them guests, if you don’t, you’re all dead!”
Sensing Feng Yu’s anger, the regiment commander immediately stood back and did not dare to speak again.
Then, he looked at the expert at the side.
“Is there any way to be immune to this ability?”
The expert nodded.
“Yes, there is.”
“This ability should be similar to a mental attack.”
“Join. The one in that building is an mutated beast or a high-level mental-type mutant. The Divine Defense Helmet of the Truth Group should be effective.”
“But…”
“But what?”
“This mutation equipment is a little expensive. One basically costs more than 500,000 credits. Moreover, it should have to be customized.”
“They definitely don’t have a production line for such a niche product.”
Hearing the expert’s words, Feng Yu could not help but knock on the table in front of him.
“Contact the Truth Corporation and order… 20 directly.”
“Tell them to hurry.”
“As for now, that’s all for now. Send someone to surround the entire area and dismiss the nearby residents.”
“Yes!”
As soon as Feng Yu finished speaking, he saw the “experimental personnel” at the door who had just woken up suddenly fall asleep again.
He was immediately furious.
“What’s going on?!”
“Didn’t they say that only people who enter will fall asleep?!”
Looking at the furious Feng Yu, the surrounding experts and subordinates immediately became subservient and were speechless.
These words were summarized by him…
Feng Yu rubbed the s.p.a.ce between his eyebrows with a headache. Then, he waved his hand, indicating for his subordinates to quickly get lost.
“w.a.n.g Zhi, stay.”
“Yes!”
After everyone left, Feng Yu looked at w.a.n.g Zhi and asked,
“Where’s the murderer? How’s the investigation going?”
w.a.n.g Zhi’s expression turned solemn and he immediately said,
“Reporting to General, I have an idea.”
“Oh? What do you mean?”
“I learned that there’s a Public Security Team member’s ability in the Public Security Department. It can allow the last scenery the deceased saw before he died to appear.
“If… if Minister Wu woke up before he died, we should be able to see that person.”
“What if he’s killed in a dream?”
“Uh…”
Looking at the speechless w.a.n.g Zhi, Feng Yu waved his hand.
“Forget it, let’s give it a try ~”
“Bring him here. Where’s Wu Yan’s corpse? Bring it up too.”
“Yes!”
After w.a.n.g Zhi responded, he immediately went down from this small building that had been temporarily built to observe the controlled area.
After going downstairs, w.a.n.g Zhi looked at the two people in security uniforms downstairs and said,
“Li Youfu, Hu Meng, are you sure everything the two of you said is true?”
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Li Youfu, who was also the captain of the Public Security Department that the local officer from Qingquan City had found and introduced to Lin Ye previously, hurriedly nodded.
In the end, he even tugged at the clothes of the person beside him.
Seeing this, Hu Meng also nodded.
“Sir, my superpower is indeed as Captain Li said. It can reveal the murderer seen by the deceased.”
“Alright, wait for my news here.”
With that said, w.a.n.g Zhi went to instruct someone to carry Wu Yan’s corpse.
Looking at w.a.n.g Zhi’s departing figure, Hu Meng glanced at Li Youfu and asked softly,
“Captain, were you talking about this officer wanting to investigate the disappearance of those people previously?”
Li Youfu scratched his head, also very puzzled.
“I don’t know!”
“However, the person who called me over yesterday was also from the army.”
“But that person is only a messenger. Moreover, he’s not a general. He’s a regiment commander.”
“What happened today might be extraordinary. Don’t speak rashly later and put away your strength.”
Hu Meng nodded.
“Yes, I understand.”
Just as the two of them finished communicating, they saw w.a.n.g Zhi bring people up the stairs with a corpse covered in a white cloth. In the end, he even waved at them.
Li Youfu and Hu Meng immediately walked forward.
“You, stay here. Come up with me.”
“Yes!”
Seeing Hu Meng being taken away, Li Youfu’s heart beat a little faster.
He was afraid that his inflexible little brother had seen something he should not have seen and would be silenced…
Then it was not worth it.
This mutation did not have much combat strength and was only useful in the Public Security Department.
However, Hu Meng felt that he had to be seriously responsible after becoming a sheriff.
As a result, he often grabbed some murders that everyone knew about to investigate.
Originally, the final verdict of these so-called murders was decided by the Human Alliance. Li Youfu did not know what a small sheriff like him was doing.
Perhaps one day, this ability would become a death warrant…
Just as Li Youfu was letting one’s imagination run wild, Hu Meng, who had gone up for less than five minutes, walked down alone.
He was holding a stack of printed papers.
“Phew ~”
“It’s good that you’re down. Did you see anything?”
“Let me tell you, no matter who did this, don’t interfere.”
“He even dared to kill the higher-ups of the army. He’s definitely not someone you and I can afford to offend.”
“Also, what’s that in your hand?”
Hu Meng handed over the stack of paper in his hand.
“The murderer’s appearance and the bounty.”
Li Youfu took the paper and took a closer look…
“Hiss ~”
Looking at the person on the paper, Li Youfu felt a chill run down his spine.
Wasn’t this the person who had asked him to help find the missing person yesterday?
How did he become a murderer?
Wasn’t this person related to the army?
Li Youfu felt that his CPU was about to burn.
“What happened?”
“N-nothing.”
“Let’s not get involved in this matter. Let the other teams post this bounty notice too!”
