Lu Chengchuan sent her out, and half an hour later, Gu Mingwei arrived at the intersection.
Seeing the familiar car approaching, Gu Wangshu opened the door and got out, and Lu Chengchuan followed her.
The car in front stopped and Gu Mingwei got out quickly. He trotted over and grabbed his daughter's hand. Seeing that his daughter was not injured, his anxious heart finally relaxed.
His daughter was fine. Gu Mingwei turned and looked at Lu Chengchuan excitedly.
"Mr. Lu! Really... I can't thank you enough for your kindness. If you need anything in the future, feel free to contact me."
"There's no need to do this. Go back quickly. I have something else to do here."
Lu Chengchuan asked them to leave quickly because he had things to do here, and the black fog was entering the city. It was not safe for Gu Mingwei to stay outside, so it was better to let them go home as soon as possible.
"Okay, let's talk again when we have a chance." Gu Mingwei understood that it was time for him to leave.
After agreeing to talk later, Gu Mingwei took his daughter back to the car and the driver turned around and returned the same way.
After everyone left, they also returned inside. When they returned, Chen Long came up and said that the black fog had spread to the edge of the suburbs, and in a few hours, the black fog would completely enter Anyang City.
They were going to leave here and go back to discuss how to dispel the black fog, and Zhou Yaning also asked him to go with them.
Lu Chengchuan left with them. Wang Xinghan had already left. They were going back to different places. Wang Xinghan returned to the Central Armed Forces Department, and they were going to the Guangnan headquarters of the Investigation Bureau.
"Captain Zhou, you guys have an internal meeting. Isn't it inappropriate for me to go?"
"What's inappropriate? You participated in the entire operation. The meeting was only to discuss what to do next. There's nothing top-secret."
Lu Chengchuan is not from the Investigation Bureau, but the connection between them is very close. He has participated in many operations and he is even the main force of the operations.
Things like meetings don't need to be kept secret. Even if you don't go in for the meeting, you can wait outside.
The car drove to the city center and entered an office building that was only about ten stories high. This was the headquarters of the Guangnan Provincial Investigation Bureau.
"You work here?" Lu Chengchuan was a little surprised.
He was so surprised, but Zhou Yaning didn't understand: "Is this weird?"
"I thought your headquarters was very secretive."
"That's not the case. We are also a state agency, just more secretive. Apart from our special work, we are also a normal department."
Zhou Yaning smiled and thought that Lu Chengchuan was thinking too much.
This place usually looks like an ordinary office building to the outside world and is not very mysterious. However, it is impossible for ordinary people to enter. Only people from the Investigation Bureau can enter.
The car was parked in the underground parking lot and they took the elevator to the eighth floor.
The lecture hall on the eighth floor can accommodate about two hundred people. When they arrived, only half of the seats were left, so Zhou Yaning took him to find a seat.
Zhang Chengyan and several leaders of the Investigation Bureau were sitting on the podium.
Lu Chengchuan waited for half an hour, and dozens of people came one after another. They were all operatives from the Investigation Bureau. The Guangnan Provincial Headquarters called back everyone they could.
"We're almost here. I called you back today because I have a mission for you."
"The black fog outside the city is about to enter. When that happens, you will need to cooperate with the various departments to stabilize public security within the city. Specific tasks will be assigned later. Team leaders, please tell us what you have discovered recently..."
Zhang Chengyan spoke at the podium for a few minutes without repeating himself. After he finished speaking, he immediately asked the captains of each team to stand up and report their respective findings, and those who had not made any findings were skipped.
An investigation team consists of about six or seven people, and at most ten. There are more than 160 people in the lecture hall, so there are at least 20 to 30 team leaders.
Next, one person stood up and took turns speaking. They really had something to say, but what they said was confidential, the kind that outsiders couldn't know even if they wanted to.
"We found a cult called the World Hunters. They are said to have received divine revelations..."
Hearing the word "cult", Lu Chengchuan perked up.
The others looked up at their colleague, who was facing the podium. "They have a special power within them, but it's not supernatural. They were performing a blood sacrifice, and I captured a few of them. They were mentally disturbed..."
"They claim to be favored by God, their power coming from God's grace... Their leader is called the High Priest, the next level is called the Messenger, and below that are the ordinary believers..."
It took them a long time to investigate and obtain this information.
Those guys were erratic in their whereabouts, and the low-level believers didn't even know who their superiors were. They were obsessed with killing people and gaining power, and that was all the information he could extract from them after torturing them.
The chief priest, the messenger, the cultists, the blood sacrifice, the god, the special power, now they are facing not only the problem of monsters, but also the problem of people.
Lu Chengchuan thought about the people he met today. They should be the cultists who performed blood sacrifices.
After the man finished his report, Zhang Chengyan rubbed his brows and said, "We need to investigate the matter of the World Hunter as well. Go on."
The rest of the people continued to report. There were a total of twenty-eight teams, and twenty-eight people took turns reporting. After the report was completed, Zhang Chengyan sorted out the documents in his hands and then began to assign tasks.
The black fog was about to enter Anyang City, and Zhang Chengyan sent them out to assist the army in maintaining public order.
After the tasks were assigned, everyone left. Zhou Yaning and his team were not assigned security tasks. They had other things to do. Zhou Yaning and the other six team leaders left with their leader for a secret meeting.
"Brother, you look a little unfamiliar. Did you just come in?"
While the leader and the team leader went upstairs to talk, the rest of the team stayed here and waited. There were only about 200 operatives in the Investigation Bureau, and there were only more than 100 before the expansion.
The teams weren't all that familiar with each other, but at least they knew each other by sight. Of all the people present, only Lu Chengchuan was a stranger to them.
"Well, this is my first time attending a meeting." Lu Chengchuan could only nod.
He couldn't say that he was not a member of the Investigation Bureau and could only get in because he knew Zhou Yaning and Director Zhang. If he said that, he didn't know how Zhou Yaning and Zhang Chengyan would react. The man in front of him would definitely not believe it.
"Oh, brother, are you a person with superpowers?" Wen Meng looked him up and down, with doubt in his words.
The two psychics could vaguely sense each other, but he stood in front of the person and could not sense any breath belonging to the psychic.
There are twenty-eight teams in the Guangnan Investigation Bureau headquarters. Twenty-one teams have just left. The remaining seven teams are all "elite teams", known as the "top seven teams", and there are more requirements for joining.
Now all members of the seven elite teams are people with special abilities. Is it possible to join the first seven teams without special abilities?
Zhou Yaning's team ranks third internally, and the conditions for joining are more stringent.
"Wen Meng, if you have nothing to do, just go to sleep. Why are you asking questions here? What do you want to do?" Wen Meng kept asking, and Qian Xiaoling quickly came up to change the subject.
The people from Team Three also came over. They didn't want Wen Meng to know that Lu Chengchuan was not a member of the Investigation Bureau. This kind of thing could not be made public.
