The person in charge is dead?

Qiao Yuan was startled.

This is the highest leader in a city!

From the appearance of the blood moon to now, there have been casualties among patrolmen and captains, but when it comes to the level of person in charge, the number is definitely no more than one palm.

Who did this?

A strange spirit?

But then again, Qiao Yuan has been in Ping City for more than a week. Although he deals with Zhang Tai every day, he has also met other captains more or less, except this person in charge.

He had never seen it from beginning to end!

I didn't expect to hear this bad news from Zhang Tai when I was saying goodbye.

…

"Can you tell me exactly what happened?" Qiao Yuan said in a deep voice.

If it was really caused by an alien spirit, I would investigate it thoroughly no matter what I said to thank Zhang Tai for his hospitality over the past few days.

"This matter... well, since you are the person that Senior Bai specifically instructed, I will tell you!" Zhang Tai said after hesitating for a moment.

He had only done a simple investigation on Qiao Yuan. Qiao Yuan was a consultant in Liyang City, but he was not actually in the official system. According to regulations, some things could not be disclosed to outsiders.

However, after working together for the past few days, Zhang Tai also knew what kind of person Qiao Yuan was. In addition, it was a request from Senior Bai, whom he admired the most, so it was no big deal to tell him.

"You should have also looked up information about South City on the Internet, right?"

Qiao Yuan nodded. This matter had been widely discussed on the Internet, but there was suddenly no further news in the past few days.

…

"In fact, a few weeks ago, our Ping City leader was secretly transferred to Nan City to participate in the war. Not only Nan City, but also some nearby cities have transferred a fourth-level awakener."

"At the beginning, the battle was just as reported online. It went smoothly, with reports of victory almost every day. But two weeks ago, there was no information about South City..."

"Of course, this is only for the outside world. For those of us inside, we also receive intelligence every day. Nanshi has fallen into a stalemate." Zhang Tai sighed.

"Impossible?" Qiao Yuan was a little surprised by this result.

If I remember correctly, the Hunter Alliance also joined the war!

"Fighting in the city is disadvantageous to the Security Bureau and the Hunter Alliance." Zhang Tai said this.

Then he took out several intelligence cases and explained them.

After hearing the explanation, Qiao Yuan suddenly understood!

If the battle is fought in an uninhabited area, the Security Bureau can exert 100% of its combat power without any worries, but if it is fought in a bustling city, the war will be unequal from the beginning.

Casualties among the grassroots people are inevitable.

For the strange spirits of the Purdue Society, killing only excites them, but for the people of the Security Bureau, there is another factor to consider.

…

After saying goodbye to Zhang Tai and others, Qiao Yuan returned to his temporary residence. At this moment, Senior Bai called.

"Friend Qiao Yuan, are you still in Ping City?"

Qiao Yuan: "Yes."

"There's something I want to discuss with you. Nan City is only a four or five hour drive from Ping City. I just received a message from headquarters saying that Nan City is in trouble and needs support, but headquarters doesn't have anyone to send at the moment, so they came to me."

Qiao Yuan was stunned.

"Senior Bai, didn't you say that seventh-level awakeners are not allowed to interfere with the battle below?"

"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?" Senior Bai asked.

Qiao Yuan: “???????”

"The lie is that I wiped out that damned rebel group and the Awakened behind them, but I was punished by the Security Bureau for violating regulations on my own initiative. I will face house arrest and a fine..."

Qiao Yuan: "..."

This... Senior Bai's original mission was to keep an eye on the polluters in his city. Will the confinement have any impact?

As for the fine... it's no big deal for a seventh-level person.

…

"The truth is... All's fair in war. This rule is meant to restrain those seventh-level awakeners with ulterior motives. The Security Bureau and people like us are not among them. Besides, with every day that passes in Nan City, countless innocent people will be implicated. We either don't take action, or we must eradicate them completely!"

Well done!

"Congratulations, Senior Bai, for another military achievement!" Qiao Yuan congratulated.

The last time they fought in the secret realm, he had no advantage over Senior Bai in terms of timing, location, and people, and was injured by the man in the laboratory. But now he is in the real world, with the existence of spiritual energy, and with his seventh-level strength, it is no problem for him to kill those "fifth-level" people in seconds.

"only……"

The tone on the other end of the phone suddenly changed.

Qiao Yuan: "..."

"Something has happened here again. The polluted Awakener has gone crazy again. Once I leave here, the disaster facing this city will definitely be more terrifying than that of South City!"

It turns out that I still can't go to South City. I originally planned to see the power of a seventh-level awakener, but it looks like my plan has been ruined again.

"Therefore, I recommended you to the higher-ups... Young friend Qiao Yuan, do you have time..."

"Senior Bai, before we begin, I'd like to ask, how many bloodthirsty spirits are there in Nanshi?"

"I don't like hiding things from people. There are a lot of them, more than thirty, and they are not low-level."

"It is our duty to eliminate harm for the people and promote righteousness!" Qiao Yuan said firmly.

"My dear Qiao Yuan, I was right about you. I thank you on behalf of the millions of people in Nan City..."

"Senior Bai, there's no need to be so polite. I'm just doing my duty as a citizen. I'll buy a ticket and leave now!" said Qiao Yuan.

"No need. Taking a car is too slow. I've already contacted a helicopter for you. If nothing goes wrong, it will be here to pick you up in 30 seconds..."
