Chapter 85 Bai Ye: How come there is another wonder?
Faust left with the law enforcers belonging to the Wings of the Goddess of Victory behind him. The law enforcers disappeared into the streets. A few aggressive law enforcers could not help but turn around and challenge You Yu: "Pray that you can find the Ten Commandments Token! Detective!"
You Yu glared back at them one by one with a smile, and the golden silk thread circled in the air, pretending to stab the opponent's mouth. The law enforcers were frightened and could only follow Faust's footsteps unwillingly.
"Ever since this guy suddenly appeared in the Sun Law Enforcement Bureau system after the Cube Leader retired a few years ago, the bureau has become increasingly chaotic, and the atmosphere is not right."
Shuise rolled his eyes in the direction Faust left, and turned to look at Baiye: "Baiye, I still have a question that puzzles me until now. What was the real situation in Wheatfield Town at that time? Was it really that guy who took the risk to save you and the other two high school students, but was stabbed in the back by you when entering and leaving the Devil's Game Space, and almost died?"
This was the reason why Queen, one of the chairmen of the Sun Law Enforcement Bureau at that time, sued Bai Ye on behalf of Faust. It was said that Faust was seriously injured after that and disappeared from the mission field of the Law Enforcement Bureau for a whole week. As the most senior law enforcer with the strongest presence in the Sun Law Enforcement Bureau, Faust's disappearance made everyone unanimously conclude that this guy must have been seriously injured. After all, no matter what mission it was, as long as the reward was high and the level was high, this workaholic could be seen.
There was not a single mission that he set his sights on that he failed to accomplish, except...those who carried out the missions with him did not receive any reward in the end.
Faust pocketed all the rewards for completing the mission, but no one raised any objections. After spending time with Faust, everyone sighed with a strange expression of satisfaction: "As expected of Mr. Faust. If it weren't for Mr. Faust, we would probably have died in this mission. In this case, the rewards should all belong to Mr. Faust."
The Squid Detective Agency was originally wary of Faust because of the "aftermath" of this strange mission, but since they were all from the Sun Law Enforcement Bureau, and those law enforcers all had voluntary smiles on their faces, they couldn't say anything. It was not until Bai Ye was intervened by Red Heart and taken to Solomon College personally that the Squid Detective Agency finally concluded that Faust was really not normal.
Because of Faust's daily lingering at various mission sites, no one questioned whether Faust was recuperating during the week he disappeared. And what could have caused a senior law enforcer who was about to become one of the four leaders to suffer such serious injuries that he could not even continue searching for various tokens for Ms. Queen, the Night Tide Warden who was in charge of the Soul Tag Condensate and the Demon Game Token Library?
Apart from the demon king-level power, the only thing he could do was ignore the knife from behind.
The fluctuations of soul particles in Wheatfield Town have always been stable. If a devil-level demon who can hurt Faust really appears, just like in Huangquan Town, the Sun Law Enforcement Bureau will not be able to suppress the information even if it wants to.
The only possibility for Faust to be seriously injured in an ordinary devil's game was that the student he rescued stabbed him in the back out of a dark heart. Even though Faust's normal behavior was very strange, it was a bottom line issue and the Squid Detective Agency could not show much kindness to Bai Ye at the beginning.
But... that timely Fire Bone invasion of Solomon College proved that Bai Ye was by no means a person who would repay kindness with enmity, his soul was even more resilient than many law enforcers who had gone astray. The reality rekindled the suspicion of the Squid Detective Agency against Faust. Until now, that seed had taken root in Shuise's heart and grown into a towering tree.
"Bai Ye, can you tell us?"
Youyu was the second to speak, and Linglan also looked at Baiye sincerely. The three of them stood at the corner of the street. Although they were very close, they seemed to be separated from the noisy and lively environment by a barrier.
No one wants problems to occur within the Sun Law Enforcement Bureau, but the DM system's actions are too smooth, and even the Law Enforcement Bureau decided too easily to cooperate with the DM system to create the Dionysus Space project at the beginning. You Yu unraveled the clues and realized that something was wrong as early as Huangquan Town.
Shuise and Linglan are Youyu's best partners. They have solved countless cases committed by demon apostles together. Naturally, they are not as slow as they seem. The warning of danger explodes in their minds. The Ten Commandments tokens appeared too quickly, and this time two of them appeared in Mo City at once. No one would be foolish enough to think that this is fate's protection for mankind against demons.
Not to mention, there were quite a few law enforcement officers on Huangquan Town’s thank-you list for donating the “soup ingredients”. Although they were quickly dealt with by the Night Tide Prison Warden Queen and thrown into the Night Tide Prison, it was obviously not an isolated case.
Before the conspiracy of fate is revealed and the final war between humans and demons begins, the Squid Detective Agency is shocked to find that some of the threads of fate lingering around them even come from the most trusted rear.
sun law enforcement bureau.
Bai Ye looked at the serious faces of the three people from the detective agency, but was speechless.
The Squid Detective Agency is very powerful, and he has always known this. Otherwise, he would not have chased every live broadcast of the Squid Detective Agency's Devil Game as the Root Number Three Wife, imagining how they get along with each other in private, integrating the warmth of friendship into his pen tip, and creating a series of magical pictures and articles that make fans in the circle exclaim "We Squid fans are so good."
But... this was the only question he really couldn't answer, because even he didn't know what was behind the fate of the corner revealed by that damn t173.
Is the game called "The Evil City" really a projection of a "natural disaster" played by high-dimensional life players, or... is the root cause coming from a "man-made disaster" in the inner and outer worlds?
Bai Ye looked into You Yu's eyes, which were a pair of platinum eyes as bright as the sun and also like amber, sparkling with the luster of absolute wisdom. He could simply realize through their experiences that the real haze behind them had quietly gathered.
But...but how could he tell Youyu, who was still full of vigor and vitality, about such a cruel ending?
Your friends will leave you after playing "When We Meet Again" again and again, including your best companions Shuise and Linglan. You will collect the Ten Commandments alone to kill the four demon kings, completely separate the inner and outer worlds, kill the leader of the demon apostles, and thwart their conspiracy to merge the inner and outer worlds. In the end, you will be left in the demon's inner world forever, and will never leave the outer world you protect.
One of the main culprits behind all this is the person in front of you, the one you trust, the one who can bring you crucial clues and hope, and the strange thief Wonder who stole all the tokens of the Ten Commandments.
Bai Ye couldn't say it out loud, and the only thing he could report to his three companions in the end was Faust's inconspicuous and least important clue.
The young man with cobalt blue eyes lowered his head and looked at the unnatural bulge on the loose cuffs on his wrist. It was a restriction ring made by the Queen, the chairman of the Law Enforcement Bureau, using the power of the DM system before its true nature was exposed. It could restrict the soul tag of the owner of the soul tag ability and make the prisoner like an ordinary person.
But at least...
He can also give the inconspicuous clue of Faust.
Bai Ye raised his head and looked at the three people from the detective agency with determined eyes. For the first time, he tried to speak as if asking for help: "I can only guarantee that the thing I will never regret doing in my life is to use my newly awakened soul tag ability to attack that bastard Faust in Wheatfield Town that night."
"white night……"
It seemed that they did not expect Bai Ye to actually choose to reply. You Yu and the other two were obviously stunned for a moment. They thought that this time the fourth member of the detective agency would still cover up the matter with an ambiguous tone as before, and then show a sad expression at some heartbreaking moment.
"Anyway, thank you, that's enough."
Youyu and the other two looked at each other. Youyu was the first to chuckle. He stroked his chest with his hand. The golden thread of fate came from all directions as he perceived it, and compressed into a small thread between his fingers.
"That's enough."
He repeated it solemnly.
The area of Skull Town is not large. In order to avoid further conflict with Faust's team, the four people, at Youyu's suggestion, went in the opposite direction of Faust's team and began to look for clues. After visiting every household and not getting more clues than Spades, Youyu fell deeply into doubt about his luck.
“That shouldn’t be the case…but the visualized golden line is moving in this direction, right?”
You Yu stood in the middle of the street, like a severely battered squid that had been caught by fishermen and exposed to the sun on a fishing boat for several days.
After a day of wandering and contacting with the Sun Law Enforcement Bureau, the sky in Ink City has become as dark as its name. All the stalls in Skeleton Town during the day have been removed, and some people have used candles to build a strange and warm candle wall on both sides of the street to commemorate the dead souls in the upcoming Day of the Dead.
"Uh... maybe there was something wrong with your soul tag?"
Shuise thought for a long time and finally came up with an impossible possibility.
You Yu didn't say anything, but just fell into thinking again. Shuise looked at the president's serious expression and tried to comfort him: "Well, relax, everything has a first time. Your labeling ability has indeed never made mistakes before, but that doesn't mean it will never make mistakes, right?"
You Yu looked at him kindly: "Not to mention that the previous revelations of fate were not as strong as this time, it was so obvious that the golden thread hint was always circling around my hand. Can you please stop talking for now?"
Shuise silently withdrew his hand, pointed to his mouth, and zipped up his pants.
"There must be a place we missed during our first search. Both the crystal skull and the meteorite appeared too abruptly. I can explain the latter as a characteristic of the meteorite, but those crystal skulls... I must think of a solution as soon as possible—"
You Yu's expression became more and more fanatical, and he was about to fall into madness, but Bai Ye suddenly stood beside him and pulled his arm.
"Youyu, look over there."
You Yu instinctively looked in the direction Bai Ye pointed, and saw several young law enforcers in wet law enforcer uniforms hurriedly passing by in that hidden alley, shouting, "Stop! Return the meteorite fragments we just found!"
You Yu was stunned: "Meteorite fragments? Those guys are so fast... Well, there is strength in numbers. Compared with the crystal skull, the only problem of meteorite fragments that needs to be solved is the search work. The most urgent task is the crystal skull-"
Before he finished speaking, he heard the law enforcers scream:
"Damn Phantom Thief Wonder!"
Bai Ye: ...Dead Hand, what did you just remind me of? And who is this Phantom Thief Wonder? I don't remember having multiple personalities!
