Nan Yu raised an eyebrow slightly, then smiled and said, "You really haven't seen Saint Qinglan before?"
Li Fu frowned and pondered for a long time, then shook his head: "Never seen it before."
Nan Yu nodded and smiled, "Is that so? Then forget it."
Li Fu glanced at Nan Yu with some doubt, but then he didn't dwell on the question and simply asked, "Captain Nan, what is your investigation team here to investigate?"
Nan Yu said, "We received a distress message from Base City 121, which is why we came here to investigate. Before us, two other investigation teams had already come here, but they have both lost contact."
"What?!"
Upon hearing this, both Li Fu and Wang Bingxin showed surprise.
Li Fu frowned and said, "But this is not right. Our base city is perfectly normal. There is no need for us to send out a distress signal. Moreover, I have not heard of any investigation team coming to our base city."
The members of the investigation team all looked at Li Fu with flickering eyes.
Noticing the gazes of the crowd, Li Fu quickly said, "Don't you all believe me? I really haven't seen the investigation team. If you don't believe me, you can walk around headquarters and investigate freely! If you have any questions, you can ask anyone at headquarters!"
Nan Yu raised an eyebrow slightly, then smiled and said, "We will."
Li Fu nodded, and seemingly afraid of being misunderstood, he emphasized again, "We in the Mist Bureau haven't heard of this matter recently. Could it be that they haven't even come to the Mist Bureau?"
"That might be possible, but everything needs to be investigated, doesn't it?"
Li Fu nodded repeatedly: "That's right, Captain Nan. Since you're an investigation team, you're definitely professional. If you need any cooperation, just let us know, and we'll cooperate unconditionally!"
Nan Yu and the others looked at Li Fu with some surprise.
Although Li Fu's words did not match the facts known to Nan Yu and the others, he appeared too sincere, as if he really did not know the whereabouts of the investigation teams.
That's a bit strange.
Nan Yu laughed and said, "It will definitely be a hassle for you, Lao Li."
"What's the trouble? We're all colleagues, we just cooperate with each other," Li Fu chuckled.
He then glanced at the sky outside; the sun was already setting.
He said, "It's getting late. How about I have someone arrange accommodation for you first, and you can continue your investigation tomorrow?"
Nan Yu shook his head: "Since we're already here, let's take a look first."
Li Fu didn't refuse and nodded: "That's your freedom."
He then added, "Shall I have my secretary accompany you?"
"No need, we can just wander around on our own."
Seeing this, Li Fu said no more: "No problem, I will inform the relevant departments."
Nan Yu nodded: "By the way, I need your bureau chief's backup card, is that alright?"
Li Fu was taken aback for a moment, then said, "No problem."
Seeing that Li Fu agreed so readily, Nan Yu and the others were all a little surprised.
The Director's Authority Card is the highest-level access card in the entire Mist Bureau, and normally allows access to any area of headquarters.
Since Li Fu gave it to them so easily, it means he really believes there are no problems at headquarters.
Li Fu took out a wallet from his pocket and opened it with complete composure.
Lu Ning glanced at it; there were many cards on one side of the wallet, and a photo on the other side—a picture of Li Fu, a middle-aged woman, and a cute little girl.
These must be his family.
Li Fu took out a silver-black card from his wallet and handed it to Nan Yu: "This is a spare card."
Nan Yu took it and nodded slightly: "Okay."
He then stood up and said with a smile, "It's getting late, let's go for a stroll and try to finish as soon as possible."
"No problem. If you have any questions, Captain Nan, please feel free to contact me," Li Fu said, being very easygoing.
Nan Yu nodded and led the others out of the office.
Enter the elevator again.
Inside the elevator, Nan Yu glanced at the security camera on one side and said, "Let's start from the second floor. We'll also ask the staff at headquarters about the situation along the way. Everyone, let's split up and go our separate ways."
"good."
After arriving on the second floor, the group split up to carry out their tasks.
Lu Ning strolled along the second-floor corridor, observing the movement of the thin white mist in the air.
The white mist was distributed very evenly.
This is different from the headquarters where the Fallen Incense Burner was located in Base City 116.
At that time, the concentration of white mist in the area where the Fallen Incense Burner was located was much higher than in other areas.
The concentration of white fog here is very uniform, indicating that there are no people or objects with high levels of mental radiation nearby.
Just then, a young man in a white coat walked towards them.
Lu Ning stepped forward, took out his identification, and began to ask questions.
After asking several people, Lu Ning received the same answer.
None of them had ever seen the previous investigation team before, not even the Azure Mist Saint.
If Lu Ning hadn't seen the other investigation teams, he might have thought that those teams had simply disappeared before even reaching headquarters.
But it would be too unreasonable to have never seen the Azure Mist Saint.
Saint Qinglan has already left Base City 121, and he himself said that he had been to the headquarters of the Mist Bureau.
It would be understandable if only a portion of people hadn't seen it, but how could it be that everyone, even the director at headquarters, hadn't seen it?
But whether it was Li Fu before or the person Lu Ning was asking now, they were all very sincere and said they had never seen them.
