Breaking into the old house
Zhou Zhenguo waved his hand.
"She has the right to terminate her cooperation at any time. We cannot violate the agreement and let her know that we are monitoring her."
"Orders are being issued to increase the surveillance level in Luoyang and surrounding areas, but this is limited to peripheral monitoring only. Any proactive actions are strictly prohibited."
"Also, organize a team of experts to immediately analyze all historical documents, geological exploration data, and folklore in the Luoyang area to see if they can find any clues related to this abnormal energy fluctuation."
"yes!"
The technicians took the order and left.
The conference room fell silent again.
Zhou Zhenguo looked out the window. This feeling of being out of control was really bad.
This Zhong Ling is like an uncontrollable variable. They have no idea what her secret is, where she is at the moment, or what she is doing.
The final result of the analysis of the Qinling Mountains came out quickly - nothing was found.
All the information shows that the area is just an ordinary primitive mountain range, with no records of any special energy or supernatural phenomena.
This matter could only be left unresolved for the time being, but they also got to know Zhong Ling better. In addition to her planting techniques, her ability to appear and disappear at will also made them wary.
After the last bit of the energy of the Golden Marrow Fruit was refined, Zhong Ling's initial stage of foundation building was completely stabilized.
At this moment, a faint touch came from a distant direction. It was the soul mark she left in the old house in Yunxi Village.
The defensive formation she set up was triggered, and someone broke into the old house.
Zhong Ling slowly opened her eyes, a trace of emotion flashing across her eyes. Who was it that was so reckless as to break into her yard?
No matter who it is, disturbing her peace is truly unforgivable.
She stood up, her mind slightly moved.
The next moment, she appeared silently on the hillside outside Yunxi Village, avoiding all possible surveillance.
The powerful spiritual sense swept across the entire village in an instant, and finally locked onto the familiar courtyard at the east end of the village.
The formation was indeed triggered, trapping several uninvited guests in the yard.
One of the auras seemed familiar.
It seems to be that old Li who likes to take advantage of others.
After a few teleportations, Zhong Ling arrived outside the courtyard wall of the old house.
The yard was quiet. She pushed open the half-open door and walked in.
Three people were lying on the ground in a mess.
The leader was Lao Li. At this moment, his eyes were closed and his face was a little pale, as if he was frightened.
The other two were unfamiliar faces. They looked to be villagers of about the same age as Lao Li. They were also unconscious and in a disheveled state.
Zhong Ling glanced around the yard and saw signs of disturbance, and she frowned slightly.
It's not because these people want to steal things, but because of their stupidity and greed that they break the tranquility here again and again.
She had no interest in interrogating the three people personally. To deal with such minor troubles, the most worry-free way was to go through the formal procedures.
Zhong Ling took out her cell phone and skillfully dialed the police station.
"Hello, is this the police station? My name is Zhong Ling, the owner of the old house at the east end of Yunxi Village."
"Someone broke into my house and has fainted in my yard. Please come and deal with it."
After hanging up the phone, she stood in the middle of the yard, folded her arms, and waited quietly.
Before long, the sound of sirens came from far away.
The two policemen walked into the yard and saw the three people on the ground, and then saw Zhong Ling standing next to them. They showed surprise and a hint of understanding on their faces.
It's this one again.
"Ms. Zhong, what's going on?" asked the leading policeman, his eyes wandering between the three people on the ground and Zhong Ling.
"They broke into my house without permission, and then it turned out like this." Zhong Ling pointed at the people on the ground.
"I have surveillance cameras installed in my yard. You can take a look."
She called up the surveillance app on her phone and showed the footage to the police.
The surveillance clearly recorded Lao Li and two other people sneaking over the wall into the yard, and then groping around in the yard. When they tried to get close to the house, they seemed to be pushed by some invisible force, and then the three of them fell to the ground and lost consciousness.
The police looked at the surveillance footage and then at the unconscious Old Li lying on the ground, and basically understood the situation.
Old Li is well-known in the village for taking advantage of others.
He probably heard that the vegetables grown by Zhong Ling were priceless, and seeing that she had not returned to the village for a long time, he became greedy.
"Okay, we got it." The police nodded.
"We will bring the person back to the station for processing, and we may need you to make a statement."
"Okay." Zhong Ling agreed readily.
The police woke up Lao Li and the other two and asked them a few simple questions. The three of them hesitated and had nothing to say when faced with surveillance evidence.
The villagers nearby who heard the noise also gathered around, pointing and talking about Lao Li and the other two who were taken away by the police.
"I told you Lao Li wasn't a quiet guy. Look, he got caught stealing!"
"Tsk tsk, that Zhong family girl's yard is very weird. The same goes for those 'students' last time. Something bad happened as soon as they entered."
“Serves you right!”
Before the police took the three people away, Zhong Ling wanted to have a few words with Lao Li alone, which of course the police had no problem with.
Zhong Ling came to Lao Li and said to him: "Your son hasn't contacted you for a long time, right? They are father and son, both love to steal things from other people's homes. But your son's fate is worse than yours. He probably won't be able to come back in this lifetime."
Zhong Ling certainly knew that Li Qiang was stealing things, but she would not stop him, otherwise how could things go according to her plan.
When Old Li heard this, his eyes widened instantly. Yes, his son Li Qiang hadn't been home for a long time, and he didn't answer his messages or phone calls.
When they went to the school to contact him, the school leader said that he was researching something and that if he succeeded, he would become famous. After hearing this, the couple dared not contact Li Qiang anymore.
But why did Zhong Ling say that? Did something happen to her son?
Old Li was about to open his mouth, but found that he couldn't say anything. He looked at Zhong Ling in horror, while Zhong Ling smiled slightly and turned away.
I'm not happy, and I won't make you happy.
Old Li wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by the police. He couldn't struggle or shout, so he was taken away.
Old Li knew that Zhong Ling was not a simple person, but he did not expect that Zhong Ling would be so weird.
He was speechless without doing anything. The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. He was afraid that Zhong Ling had done something to his son.
At the same time, in Shangjing City.
A dispute broke out in the corridor outside a private room of a high-end club.
"You fucking bumped into me and you still dare to glare at me?" A young man wearing a flowered shirt and reeking of alcohol pointed at Chen Yu's nose and cursed.
Chen Yu's face turned pale. He was actually provoked by a country bumpkin who appeared out of nowhere.
"Watch your mouth." Several of Chen Yu's companions also gathered around him, and the atmosphere was tense.
It looked like the action was about to begin.
A young man wearing ordinary casual clothes and looking like a student happened to walk out of the box next to him.
He paused when he saw the conflict here.
It was Zhao Wenxuan, who instinctively observed the situation.
The young man surrounded in the middle was well-dressed and had an arrogant temperament. It was obvious that he was not an ordinary person.
The provocative party is numerous and powerful, and is not a good match.
Just when the young man in the flowered shirt pushed Chen Yu and Chen Yu was about to fight back.
Zhao Wenxuan seemed to pass by accidentally, stumbled, and squeezed his body between the two people.
