Chapter 15 Chapter 15
At this point, Ning Su was completely confused.
Although the environment at this moment was still bad and seemed to be full of dangers, his attention was completely occupied by two different versions of the story.
Could the gap between them get any bigger?
If the story told by Assistant Xiang is a collection of hot elements including unspoken rules in the entertainment industry, forced love by sponsors and betrayal by friends, then Mi Gao's version is a completely inspirational success version of "finding a good sponsor" in the demon world.
Although both stories involve the element of "sponsor", their meanings are, if not completely different, then they are completely unrelated.
"Are you sure you remember correctly?"
Since the difference between the two was too great and it concerned their judgment of the dangerousness of this monster, Ning Su couldn't help but ask.
"It should be correct." Mi Gao thought for a moment and replied. At the same time, in order to increase the credibility of his statement, he also provided a new piece of information.
"By the way, that big demon is a fox."
As a demon that is well-known to humans and appears many times in literary works, it is probably known to everyone that the fox demon's innate skill is illusion.
"That makes sense."
Remembering the way the previous threatening text message appeared, Ning Su couldn't help but believe it a little more.
But the information provided by Mi Gao was still too little. Ning Su hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell Officer Song all the information he knew.
In this case, Officer Song was the person in charge, and he and Mi Gao were just assistants. Ning Su never forgot his position from beginning to end.
"I am more inclined to your opinion." After considering it, Officer Song gave the answer without much hesitation.
Officer Song explained: "Objectively speaking, it is impossible for a wealthy man like Tang Songzhi to have no news about his private life."
As a law enforcement officer, Officer Song has this confidence.
In fact, they had never heard any similar rumors among their own people, let alone such horrifying news that disregarded life.
"Moreover," Officer Song pointed out a flaw in Assistant Xiang's words, "If it was really an evil ghost who wanted to kill him, the other party should have looked for Tang Songzhi himself first, not Zhou Jingyi."
Although being betrayed by a friend is indeed hateful, how can a "friend" you have only known for a short time be compared to the perpetrator himself?
Rather than an evil ghost harming people, it seems more like a fox demon playing tricks on people.
"you're right."
"In that case, let's take a gamble."
After some discussion, Ning Su already had a preference in his mind - but preference does not mean 100% certainty.
Even if the other party is a "guardian deity" who is close to humans, he may not be kind to everyone.
Now, all Ning Su relies on is the saying "When the enemy comes, we will stop him with our generals; when the water comes, we will block it with earth."
"Let's move forward." After discussing, Ning Su and Officer Song continued to move forward.
"Wait, you guys don't want to die?"
Assistant Xiang couldn't help but shout out when he realized what the others in the team were about to do.
Assistant Xiang didn't understand why Ning Su and Officer Song still wanted to move forward even though he had clearly explained the whole process and the dangers involved.
However, a gust of wind blew by, and Assistant Xiang looked back again and found that the direction he came from was bright, so there was no way he could not go back.
"You lied to me?!"
No matter how stupid Assistant Xiang was, he reacted at this moment.
The so-called "reaching a dead end" does not mean that there is no way out, but that Officer Song and Ning Su colluded with each other to get information out of him.
"Go out and explain why you concealed the case." This time, Officer Song was not polite.
After Officer Song turned against him, Assistant Xiang found himself isolated and helpless and became completely chickened out.
Since they had come here, they might as well make the best of it. Since they had decided to move forward, Ning Su and the others did not delay any further. As they moved further and further forward, Ning Su finally felt what Mi Gao called the "boundary".
From the visual point of view, it is as if a transparent film is erected from somewhere.
And this film covers the entire space, like a blown bubble.
Ning Su carefully reached out his hand towards the film, and the next second, he found a dialog box appearing in front of him.
"Welcome, please log in and verify."
ah?
Even though I knew the "criminal record" of this big demon, I was still shocked by the style of this barrier.
Then, another picture appeared in front of Ning Su's eyes——
He realized that he had become Super Mario, who needed to keep pushing mushrooms forward to save the princess.
Turning around, he found that two other people and one demon were also involved in the game: one was playing fruit cutting, one was playing temple run, and even rice cake was playing happy elimination.
Ning Su: “…”
You big demons, don't be so exaggerated!
At this moment, if Ning Su and others were stuck at the technical level of conquering the barrier, then the A City Monster Bureau would be in chaos.
"Xiao Yun, didn't you say you called the demon to help? Where is the demon?"
"Operator, we need backup. Can a human staff come? This monster doesn't know anything."
"Hello?"
The Special Management Bureau of City A, also known as the Demon Bureau, is facing a two-front battle tonight, which is rare in recent years.
Just as Ning Su guessed, compared to another battlefield, the Demon Bureau did not give high priority to the case of the disappearance of Song Jingyi, the well-known young actor.
As for the reason, it was similar to what Officer Song and the others knew. Although the demonic energy was detected at the front line, no malicious intent was detected.
It was just a search for someone and no human life was involved. Therefore, to handle this case, the Demon Bureau only dispatched a few human staff from the business department.
The rest of the large force was transferred to another case.
"Where is the demon who knows the truth? Why hasn't he come yet?" At Beishan Temple, about three kilometers away from Green Shade Park, an officer from the Demon Bureau asked other staff members.
"I sent the demon to call."
The subordinate fell into a faint confusion.
Speaking of which, although the A City Monster Bureau has a long history and a very special status in the system, when it comes to actually doing the work, only insiders know how difficult it is.
In their evil bureau, there are actually not many people who can be used.
Those who can fight are difficult to manage, and those who are easy to manage cannot fight.
For example, at this time, after receiving reports from the public and conducting extensive investigations, the business department of the Monster Bureau finally locked down the location of the monster that caused the accident and was ready to catch it in one fell swoop.
However, when they arrived at the location, they found that the demon that caused the accident was nowhere to be found.
After using certain methods to obtain the temple's permission, the staff of the Demon Bureau were able to enter the temple to search, but the external assistance they had called for did not arrive.
"No, didn't you give this Yuehua?"
The person in charge of this case is the deputy of the business department, his surname is Tan, and he is currently the most inconsistent cadre in the Monster Bureau.
He is a human being. He was previously a front-line staff member in other departments. Later, due to injury, he retired to the second line and transferred to the Demon Bureau.
Director Tan retired due to illness and is a human being. The organization expected him to work in a clerical position and serve as the office director in the bureau.
However, Director Tan thought that he was not too old and did not want to spend his days writing reports and handling miscellaneous tasks, so he took the initiative to request a transfer to the business department.
At first, other people in the bureau were not optimistic about Director Tan’s choice - the Monster Bureau’s business department naturally deals with monsters.
Director Tan himself is not a demon, but he is much weaker in terms of fighting power, and is naturally weak in situations where he needs to subdue others by force.
But Director Tan delivered a high-scoring answer with his actions.
After taking his position, he did not rush to subdue the monsters in the bureau, but instead tried to build good relationships with the monsters outside the bureau.
At the same time, Director Tan also followed the example of other units and came up with a short-term external employment system.
It doesn’t matter if the monsters in the game don’t cooperate. When something happens, he will simply bypass the monsters in the game and pay the wild monsters outside the game to help.
As a result, he was able to accomplish many things, changing the conservative and inefficient style of the bureau and becoming very famous within the system.
Seeing him like this, the bureau's staff became very dissatisfied and tried every way to make trouble for him.
However, this time the staffing monsters failed to drive Director Tan away. Instead, the higher-ups took action and directly implemented the outsourcing system.
There is no other reason, it’s just that the monsters outside want too little.
Taking the monthly payment as an example, the editor needs to receive five bottles a month, but whether to work or not depends on his mood.
It’s different for the extra-curricular monsters. Two bottles of moonlight are enough to make them work diligently. They will hit wherever you point them and never say a word.
With the support of non-staff monsters, Director Tan gradually gained a firm foothold in the Monster Bureau and slowly gathered together some monsters with a sense of crisis. Now, he even dares to fight on two fronts after receiving clues.
However, only the person knows how to handle things personally. Director Tan seems to have a good life on the outside, but when he is actually working, he is so depressed that he wants to pull his hair out.
These monsters are really difficult to communicate with.
How come the demon, who was notified an hour or two ago, hasn't arrived yet?
"Yuehua has given it to him, and someone has been sent to notify him." Among Director Tan's die-hard supporters, the ginseng spirit has the widest demon veins.
In terms of strength, the Ginseng Spirit cannot be ranked, but in terms of the number of little demons he knows, he must be number one in City A.
Just like this time when he was looking for someone, the ginseng spirit took the responsibility and recommended a dog demon with the blood of an ancient spirit dog.
Director Tan thought about it and quickly agreed.
First, dog demons do have a natural advantage in finding people. Second, this case is actually related to dog demons.
Not long ago, after Yao Shuangyi called the police, the police took away Haohao's grandmother Zhang Cuifang.
Although Zhang Cuifang was vague when explaining the case, her method of committing the crime is even more difficult to measure with scientific means.
Fortunately, with the security guards’ corroboration, the police did not ignore the claim, but instead handed it over to the Demon Bureau.
Elderly women, puppets, square dancing, Beishan Temple...
Because these elements overlapped too much, the Demon Bureau instantly linked it to several cases that had occurred not long ago.
Moreover, based on the more detailed information provided by Zhang Cuifang, the location of the suspected demon was located.
This time, it seemed as if God wanted the Demon Bureau to handle the case well. Before the operation was carried out, a celebrity happened to go missing in Green Shade Park.
There is no doubt that all eyes are on this case.
Judging from many details, the demon who caused the incident in Beishan Temple was a cautious person. Now that his attention has been diverted, it can only be said that he is beneficial rather than harmful to the actions of the Demon Bureau.
But who knew that although this case had the right time and place, it lacked the support of the people.
Director Tan did not expect that the plan he had been planning for a long time would fail because of the foreign aid called by the ginseng spirit.
"I'll urge you again."
Sensing Director Tan's collapse, the Ginseng Spirit continued to look for his younger brother Firefly without saying a word.
It’s not his fault that he has a good work attitude. It’s because Director Tan pays him too much.
In exchange for helping Director Tan do the work, the other party promised to give it two bottles of Yuehua, and it could take one of the bottles as a brokerage fee.
If you miss such a good deal, you will never find it again.
However, as if to prove that the moonlight was not so easy to obtain, the ginseng spirit returned in disgrace not long after.
"…Oh no, my demon seems to have given the wrong direction."
Who among my family members understands? Who knows that the firefly demon cannot tell the direction?
The dog demon was supposed to work at this construction site, but unexpectedly, the fireflies made a mistake and notified him to work at another construction site.
Director Tan: “…”
It’s nothing, I’m just tired.
Fortunately, they had been together for a long time and understood the unreliability of these monsters. He took the initiative to lower his expectations. Director Tan only collapsed for a few seconds, then cheered up and thought of other ways.
This evildoer has harmed many people, so we must find a way to catch him.
However, just as Director Tan finished this thought, he heard a subordinate scream.
“It ran away!”
The demon who caused the accident actually disguised himself as a staff member and then sneaked away when he was surrounded by heavy enemies.
Moreover, the demonic energy detector of the Demon Bureau did not give any warning at all.
"Chase! Where did it go?"
"It seems to be running towards the east."
"Which way is east?" Director Tan immediately opened a Baidu map.
Not far to the east of Beishan Temple is the Green Shade Park.
"Ah, this." The ginseng spirit uttered an onomatopeia that he had just learned on the Internet - bad, two different construction sites were merged into one.
In this case, Director Tan shouldn't deduct his salary, right?
