"Could it be that the creature you encountered in your last case was actually a physical relic? Not an illusion?"
“…illusion?”
"Well, those tentacles you saw in the black fog just now were not real relic species, but illusions created by some powerful beings using energy."
Yi Nanping's face turned pale: "...It's just an illusion, how can it be so powerful?! If it were a real entity..."
That's simply unimaginable!
Meng Guanghui knew what he was thinking and shook the sniper rifle shell in the transparent evidence bag at him: "Is this the bullet?"
Yi Nan calmed down, looked carefully at the transparent evidence bag, and nodded seriously: "Yes, these are the bullets. Huh? Why are there so many? I only remember one..."
Kang Shanxing recalled the illusion of tentacles all over the sky and said slowly, "...Maybe the other party fired more than one shot."
Yi Nanping frowned, thinking carefully about what happened at that time. Suddenly, as if he remembered something, his eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "Commander! That person must want to help us! I remember! When we first ambushed in the South District, two small aircraft were bombarding each other in the sky above the South District!"
Huo Yushen, who was standing behind the medical cabin, had always been calm, ruthless, and knowledgeable. He could remain calm even when a supernova exploded in front of him.
But after listening to Yi Nanping's narration, his brows gradually furrowed.
Kang Shanxing was even more surprised. "You mean, that phantom tentacle also wanted to destroy that aircraft, but it only succeeded in piercing the aircraft from the top, and then the tentacle disappeared into thin air?"
"Yes, they simply vanished out of thin air! I didn't understand what was going on at the time, but now that you're saying they weren't real relic species but illusions, it makes sense."
Only when the illusion is exposed can it disappear out of thin air.
Huo Yushen's doubts deepened.
He had directly competed with the distant existence behind the illusory tentacles in mental strength, and only then forced it to retreat.
Before him, was there anyone who could use mental power to destroy those illusory tentacles?
What level is that...
He frowned in thought.
In the thick black fog, he could indeed feel that there seemed to be some substance somewhere in the night sky.
But he sensed no ill will, so he didn't bother to inquire.
It seems that the material existence should be the small combat aircraft that was not destroyed by the illusion tentacles.
Seeing Kang Shanxing frown, Yi Nanping thought he didn't believe him, and said nervously: "Commander, we all have automatic cameras on our helmets. You can go and watch the replay. I didn't lie!"
When Kang Shanxing heard Yi Nanping mention this, he sighed and shook his head, saying, "I just checked the equipment you were carrying. All the electromagnetic components are damaged, and there are no video recordings left."
Since Huo Yushen said that the tentacles in the black fog were illusions caused by energy, that would explain why the electromagnetic components were damaged.
Because a large-scale magnetic field riot occurred in that place.
Yi Nanping's face suddenly fell. He was extremely worried that the chief would suspect him of lying, so he hurriedly added, "Our team previously handled the Heirloom hostage situation in the North District. We also have a video, and it has been uploaded to the Special Security Bureau's Mulan City branch's cloud system. The chief can check it out! I really didn't lie!"
Huo Yushen said nothing and turned away quietly.
Kang Shanxing hurriedly comforted Yi Nanping: "You should take good care of your injuries and we'll talk after you recover."
Then he left in a hurry.
Huo Yushen returned to his single office in the Bat Fighter and immediately opened the internal account of the Special Security Bureau to check the operation video that Yi Nanping mentioned.
Meng Guanghui and Kang Shanxing followed in at this time and looked at him nervously.
Comparing the action log submitted by Yi Nanping, Huo Yushen watched the entire video with an extremely calm expression. He simply said, "There's something wrong with the video."
"What's the problem?! Do they dare to tamper with the video?!" Meng Guanghui and Kang Shanxing were both shocked.
Ever since Huo Yushen took office, no one in the Special Security Bureau dared to do such a thing!
Huo Yushen's face was calm, but his eyes were dangerous, as if he was on the verge of rage, yet he was extremely restrained, like a volcano in the deep sea that had not erupted.
His hands rested on the desk in front of him, tapping lightly from time to time.
Kang Shanxing is the more careful of the two adjutants.
He leaned over and carefully read the operation log, then recalled the video he had just watched, and suddenly said, "There seems to be something wrong with the video. We need to ask Yi Nanping again."
"What's wrong? Why didn't I see it?" Meng Guanghui bent down, squinting his eyes as he stared at the operation log, saying, "The log says, based on the intelligence we've received, that the cult organization, Judge, is taking hostages for a triennial human sacrifice."
"They arrived and found 23 abducted boys and girls, but they were all dead. The video showed the exact same content... What's the problem?"
Kang Shanxing glanced at Huo Yushen, and seeing that he had no intention of stopping him, he softly explained to Meng Guanghui, "You also said that it was the cult organization Judge who captured the hostages for the triennial human sacrifice."
"According to our information, this judge organizes a triennial human sacrifice, which requires twenty-four young men and women. Therefore, there should be twenty-four hostages, but Yi Nanping's video and operation log only show twenty-three people, which is clearly one person missing."
"...Couldn't it be that the Judge Organization kidnapped someone somewhere else? It's a pity that those twenty-three people are all dead, otherwise we could just ask them and we would know how many people there are..." Meng Guanghui muttered, still feeling that Huo Yushen and Kang Shanxing were a little paranoid.
