This New Year's Day gathering seemed rather lifeless because of this unexpected incident.
Most of the villagers returned on the second trip, and Chen Yang also asked his parents to take his grandmother back, otherwise his grandmother would nag him to death. The attack on Chen Yang and Chen Liu had been a huge shock to the old lady.
"After you all go back, I'll have Brother Yunhu send you a set of early warning systems in a few days. Don't worry too much; accidents happen all the time, even walking can lead to a fatal fall. There's no need to be on guard all the time," Chen Yang said before everyone left.
"Lord of the Realm, we're all carefree, nothing's wrong. You're the one who should be worried," Tang Jiaqi said with a smile.
“Before, we were caught off guard. Now that I’m on guard, do you still need to worry? The one who should be worried is the person behind us.”
Chen Yang's words had a hint of arrogance, but no one thought he was arrogant.
Who is Chen Yang? The Lord of the Micro Realm, an incredibly monstrous person! No, no human is more monstrous than him; this guy is simply not human.
Unless you use a laser gun to sweep the area, there's really no way to deal with Chen Yang by manpower alone.
“Aliens are amazing,” Ye Wu said in the group chat. “Tell us your purpose for coming to Earth.”
“My alien Yang is here to save all of humanity, okay?” Li Su’er replied.
“I think so too,” Chen Yang replied.
It's a good thing that there are a few lively characters among the residents; they can at least alleviate the oppressive atmosphere a bit.
Yan Su immediately sent someone to take the body away.
In this era where human life is of paramount importance, every death is taken seriously. Even Yan Su couldn't bring a body to the military headquarters without a sound.
However, he wielded enough power to shift the military's focus elsewhere, rather than the inn. At the Microworld Inn, the military personnel left after taking a brief look at the evidence.
That night, Chen Yang didn't let Ou Huang enter the micro-world, but instead had Ou Huang keep watch. As long as he wasn't in a deep sleep, Ou Huang's sensitivity was exceptional.
After entering the micro-world, Chen Yang sensed that the atmosphere had changed; people weren't chatting as freely as before.
This is understandable, given that a death has occurred, and it was a real death in reality. Few people in the world have experienced such a thing, including Chen Yang.
Chen Yang wasn't a saint either, and he was somewhat at a loss. He didn't have any particularly good way to handle this situation.
Although the shadow of death did not loom over everyone's hearts, it still affected them.
Fortunately, it's not snowing much anymore. Although the snow is still quite thick, at least people can come out and move around. Otherwise, being stuck indoors would be too depressing.
The snow piled up at the campsite wasn't very thick, but it was impossible to move around normally without shoveling, so everyone grabbed their tools and started shoveling.
Chen Yang and a group of others continued to build the Xixi Building.
The construction of the Xinxi Building will still take some time, but most of it has been completed. It is expected that in another ten days or so, the construction of all the external and internal structures will be completed, and theoretically, it will be ready for occupancy.
However, they had high requirements for the Xinxi Building, and many details inside needed to be perfected, such as the need to carve some railings and pillars.
At that time, Yu Xuan's workload increased, but fortunately, he was teaching a plum carving class and Grandpa Yun could help him, so he was able to manage.
Chen Yang also used the new Realm Citizen Invitation Code to recruit an old carpenter who was in charge of carpentry at the New Micro Realm Inn. This old carpenter had been working with wood all his life and was a true craftsman. He came because he was interested in the New Micro Realm Inn, not for money, since a set of furniture he made cost hundreds of thousands of yuan and he was not short of money.
The old carpenter and Yu Xuan got along very well. His woodworking was different from wood carving, but they could learn from each other. The old man and the young man chatted happily.
Chen Yang hadn't used up all his slots, and he didn't care anymore. He was now hoping that the growth rate of the micro-realm's inhabitants would slow down, so there was no need to actively recruit inhabitants.
After the body was sent to the military headquarters, its identity was quickly confirmed: it was a fugitive, but he had been arrested for robbery. He had been on the run for five years, and there had been no news of him during those five years.
The metal plate attached to the fugitive's temple was a homemade device that could release an electric current. While this current might not be fatal on the body, it could instantly cause brain death when placed on the temple.
"The walkie-talkie is too ordinary to trace its origin, but the metal plate on the temple is a product sold by an underground organization in the southeast region. Our military has been monitoring this organization for some time now. Old Yan has asked his superiors, and they will send people to investigate soon." Yun Hu's investigation is also making progress.
This kind of special item is unlikely to be sold in bulk. Once we find this organization, the chances of finding out more are quite high.
"Brother Yun, can you give me some information about this organization?" Chen Yang asked.
Yun Hu was taken aback, then said, "Although this is also classified, I can help you retrieve the information. Or do you intend to go to this organization yourself?"
Chen Yang nodded: "That's right, I'll go in person, but not for the purpose of investigation."
"Why is that?"
"We'll discuss this topic in the group chat later, so everyone knows that I'm going to this underground organization in person."
Yun Hu wasn't stupid; he immediately understood Chen Yang's plan. Chen Yang was using himself as bait to lure the snake out of its hole.
"Wouldn't that be too risky? Although gun control is strict now, this organization definitely has guns."
Chen Yang knew this was somewhat risky, but he was convinced it was worth the risk.
As long as the other party still has designs on him, he is confident that he can escape danger.
Underground organizations, after all, cannot operate in the light of day and cannot be set up like military bases. That's just something you see in TV dramas. The appearance of such organizational bases is usually very ordinary and inconspicuous.
Chen Yang and Yun Hu brought up the topic again in the group, and Chen Yang shared his plans, which immediately met with opposition.
"No, it's too dangerous. I won't allow you to go." Yang Yu directly rejected Chen Yang's idea. As a mother, of course she didn't want her child to do something so risky.
Chen Yang had to persuade Yang Yu for a long time before she finally agreed, because if this issue wasn't resolved, Chen Yang would remain in danger. Chen Ming didn't have much of an opinion, only instructing his son to be careful and not to act rashly.
Chen Yang is most grateful that his grandmother doesn't know how to use the internet. Her phone is useless except for accessing WeChat and dialing numbers via speed dial. Otherwise, he would never have been able to get past his grandmother.
The old lady doesn't care about anything, and it's impossible to reason with her. She just won't let you go, and nothing will work. If there's any danger involved, you can't go.
Chen Yang knew that although that Jiemin wasn't very smart, he wasn't stupid either. His arrogant way of telling the other party that he was going there was clearly a ploy to lure the snake out of its hole.
Many people in the community also noticed it, but they all tacitly remained silent.
This contest unfolded silently.
