The painter came and went in a hurry, just to meet Qin Tan.
In the exhibition hall, the two attendants who had witnessed the battle exchanged a glance and then voluntarily stepped forward to explain themselves.
"We just took the money and sold the painting to you."
"We know nothing else."
They were hesitant, but even more so, they were fervent.
"So there really are extraordinary worlds." One of them muttered to himself, itching to pounce on them and ask questions.
Unfortunately, what awaited them was the baptism of the Spear of Oblivion.
They were destined not to retain this memory.
However, the man's words made Qin Tan seem thoughtful.
Sure enough, some people in the ordinary world have vaguely sensed the existence of the extraordinary world.
After they cleaned up the mess and returned to Dawn Hub, they learned that the other two teams had also been attacked.
However, the painter did not show up, and the matter was resolved smoothly.
Meanwhile, the oil paintings from the rest of the Fifth District were also sent over.
Indeed, they are all the work of painters.
These were all housed together on the basement level.
The smooth progress left Qin Tan with some doubts.
She tried to find more clues about the painter in the forum, but it was difficult.
The existence of the Fire of the Spirit Society is even more mysterious than that of the Church of the Abyss.
They place more emphasis on the quality of their members, and there is very little information available about the four major families.
Qin Tan had no choice but to search for all information related to the painter, such as the Class A forbidden item, the Lost Gallery.
She discovered that there were many related topics on the forum regarding this taboo item.
After Qin Tan read through all of them, she discovered a startling fact.
When the Lost Gallery first appeared, it was not rated as A.
Of course, the official authorities have only just formally taken over [Lost Gallery], and they may not have been able to determine its level before that.
But compared to this possibility, Qin Tan had another unbelievable guess.
That is to say, this forbidden item was not of a high level from the beginning.
There are some documents that can serve as evidence.
When this forbidden item was first discovered, it had a user, and at that time, the most serious side effect of the [Lost Gallery] was that it made people have a poor sense of direction, but they would not get lost.
If this speculation is true, it means that the Fireworks Society has mastered a way to upgrade forbidden items.
Once this news gets out, the entire supernatural world will be in an uproar.
If E and D grade forbidden items become higher grade items, does that mean that in the future, they will possess countless A grade forbidden items, or even S grade forbidden items?
What about those with extraordinary abilities?
Could the extraordinary abilities possessed by superhumans also be used to upgrade their status using this method?
Assuming this idea holds true, then the painter's act of personally delivering the "Lost Gallery" to Dawn Shu is thought-provoking.
This idea made Qin Tan feel like she was standing on the edge of an abyss.
She couldn't rule out that possibility.
Qin Tan eventually reported her guess to Captain Xia Shuang.
The call screen that popped up the next second made Qin Tan realize that the other party had taken this matter seriously.
Looking at the other person's cold and refined face through the screen, I felt a bit more solemn.
"Qin Tan, I understand the situation. I will report it to the director."
"However, before that, this matter must not be told to anyone else."
Xia Shuang was very serious.
Even if it's only a one in a billion chance, it still means it's feasible.
This understanding will upend the entire extraordinary world.
The world is already facing the expansion of the abyss; if internal unrest breaks out again, the tragedies that occurred after the collapse of order may well repeat themselves.
"I see."
After that, Qin Tan continued to train at Li Mingshu.
Nothing major has happened recently, except that some members of the Abyss Church have been causing trouble everywhere.
Fortunately, those believers weren't very capable, so it didn't cause too much of a disturbance.
On the afternoon of the third day after the art exhibition incident, Qin Tan received a task specifically assigned to her.
"It is suspected that members of the Abyss Church are luring ordinary people to their faith in the old city."
The location was in the area where she lived, and Qin Tan went there according to the address given to her.
This is an old square in a less-than-ideal location.
Several springs in the central fountain were blocked and no water was coming out, but some children were playing with pebbles inside.
There is also a shopping mall next to the square. There are many old residential areas nearby, and the mall can barely make a profit.
Speaking of which, this shopping mall in the old town is a long-established brand.
As Qin Tan entered the mall, she heard the joyful laughter of many children coming from the entertainment area on the first floor.
It's Saturday, and the mall is quite crowded.
According to intelligence, the members of that Abyss Church have been active on the first floor recently.
There are many children and elderly people on the first floor.
These two types of targets are the easiest to deceive.
When Qin Tan arrived at the playground, she saw a child sliding down the slide.
There were staff members below taking over, and they seemed very dedicated.
It's a girl.
He was around twenty years old, with a round face and a trustworthy smile.
Even if a naughty child spanks her, she smiles and doesn't blame him.
Parents confidently entrusted their children to the staff, while they themselves gathered in small groups to chat.
Some parents don't even pay attention to their own children.
Qin Tan glanced at the staff member and sensed no extraordinary aura from him; he was just an ordinary person.
She weaved through the crowd and saw a staff member helping an elderly person toward the restroom.
The elderly person seems to have difficulty walking.
