Chapter 0068 Re-entering Shijing Town!
Chapter 0068 Re-entering Shijing Town!
Five kilometers away from Shijing Town.
Night fell over the mountains.
Between the endless mountain ranges, every hundred meters there is a figure wearing a white-gray mask, hidden in the darkness.
On the main road leading into Shijing Town, a helicopter slowly landed beside the cement road.
The surrounding roads were closed off by the security department, which had already received orders.
As soon as Liu Bai and his two companions disembarked, Number 71 came to greet them.
"Sir, all security personnel in Luocheng and Yun City are in position and have secretly surrounded the entire Shijing Town!"
"it is good."
Liu Bai put away the decree bracelet and nodded:
"From now on, only entry is allowed in Ishii Town, no exit! If anyone comes out, you must immediately take control of them."
"Yes, sir!"
Number 71 immediately agreed.
Liu Bai continued:
"Once I go inside and fire the signal flare, you guys immediately provide support!"
"Yes, sir."
After giving the order, Liu Bai looked at Chen Keke and said:
"Once you're inside, just do as I say. If you have any questions, come out and I'll explain."
"it is good."
Chen Keke nodded slightly.
She's still a little confused.
She had experienced so much in those two hours that she hadn't even had a chance to process it all.
It's like playing a game where she hasn't even finished the tutorial, and then Liu Bai drags her to fight the boss.
Who wouldn't be confused in this situation?
"Little E, Little E." Liu Bai put on the government order bracelet.
Hey, I'm here~
A clear, mature female voice rang out.
Liu Bai commanded:
"Immediately create a city-level criminal investigation identity for me and upload it to the official website in real time."
"At the same time, I sent a message through the Yun City Government Affairs Office that I was going to Shijing Town, and told the mayor of Shijing Town to wait for me at the entrance of the government affairs office."
"Okay, it's done for you~"
Having received the reply, Liu Bai said no more and began to plan the main items he needed to bring this time.
X-Short knife, flare gun, mini gun.
These three items are what he brought into the town.
Mini gun.
He had specifically asked about this when he became the savior.
There's only this one available right now. If you want other styles, the earliest they can be made is tomorrow night.
So he has no choice but to make do with it for now.
After confirming that there were no oversights, Liu Bai and Chen Keke got into the black car.
There are two objectives this time.
First, find the spirit and control it, then interrogate Su Yumu for information.
Second, kill the spirit!
It's already 10:30.
Based on information from last week's playthrough, Ishii Town will become a controlled area at midnight, and the fake people will be mobilized to kill.
Therefore, he needs to deal with the spirit before that.
Otherwise, once the Security Bureau mobilizes after midnight, Ling will most likely run away...
.........
.........
The vehicle sped along the dark road.
Liu Bai stared straight ahead.
Chen Keke frowned, her eyes looking at the mountains on both sides.
For the past few hours, she has been memorizing the characteristics of spirits, as well as other information.
Now that she was about to face Ling, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"Relax, Coco."
Liu Bai turned his head and smiled:
"Before noon, this place was just like any other small town, and today was the busiest day in the town."
"As long as we successfully capture the spirit, the fake man will not appear."
"I'm not too worried about fake people..."
Chen Keke pursed her lips and whispered:
"I was just thinking about Su Su. She might be a spirit, but she's been so kind to us."
"Spirits are the opposite of humanity. If we don't kill spirits, the world will be destroyed. But if we kill spirits, what about Susu?"
"..."
Liu Bai fell silent.
This is the question he has been avoiding ever since he learned that Su Yumu is not human.
He didn't know what to do either.
But that's not the point right now. The point is to find Su Yumu first!
and so……
"Let's find Xiao Su first. Right now, we're just assuming she's a spirit. What if she isn't? Right?"
After Liu Bai finished speaking, he stepped on the brake:
"That's all for now, we've arrived at the town."
Squeak!
The sound of brakes.
The worried girl pursed her lips and didn't continue the topic.
At this moment, in front of the car was a brightly lit town.
People were coming and going on the street.
The surrounding crowd was all smiles as they moved between the various shops.
Looking at the scene before him, Liu Bai couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
The town from last week's playthrough and this week's playthrough feel like completely different places.
Only a few hours passed in between.
As for the information about the town, he had already seen it once on the helicopter when he came here this week.
This small town is located deep in the mountains.
Agriculture is the only profitable sector, so most of the young people in the town go to the city to work.
It only gets lively during the Lunar New Year or the town's annual procession of deities.
The town is small, and there are very few outsiders.
As soon as Liu Bai's car entered the town, the surrounding crowd cast curious glances at him.
"Brother, how do I get to the town government building?"
Liu Bai rolled down the car window and looked at a middle-aged man, asking him a question.
"The town government..."
The middle-aged man smiled broadly and said:
"Just walk straight along the main road to the end, then turn left and walk 500 meters to reach our town government."
"Okay, thanks bro."
Liu Bai thanked him and started the vehicle again.
"Liu Bai, why are they all carrying sticks?"
Chen Keke looked out the car window, somewhat curious.
Liu Bai glanced out the window and said:
"These are torches, used by them during their processions."
"The procession festival is when the town's residents carry torches and circle the town at night, then return to the town center to worship the gods. I heard there are various programs at night as well."
"I see."
Chen Keke suddenly realized:
"This festival is similar to the Nanyue Festival, but I've only ever seen it in history books. I never imagined that it would still be held in some places today."
"This is actually a continuation of the Nanyue Festival, which is still preserved in rural areas and towns today."
Liu Bai turned the steering wheel to the left and continued:
"I've heard that these kinds of festivals can ward off bad luck and bring good fortune for the second half of the year. People in this small town generally believe in these things."
Chen Keke nodded, her eyes filled with curiosity as she kept looking towards the street...
……
……
Shijing Town Government Affairs Office.
"Mayor, are city leaders really coming down in the middle of the night?"
A young man stood at the entrance of the government affairs office, looking at the middle-aged man beside him with a puzzled expression.
The middle-aged man chuckled and said:
"That's right, it's a task that was just issued from above."
"However, this mission is a bit strange. They told us not to make a fuss and just to cooperate with them throughout the process."
"All right."
The young man nodded and continued to ask:
"What level of hospitality should we have?"
"Specification……"
The middle-aged man pondered for a moment, then said:
"Tell Lao Wang to book a private room at the Four Seasons Restaurant, and get the best one..."
He stopped abruptly halfway through his sentence.
A car stopped in front of their town hall, and a young man and a young woman got out.
The middle-aged man's eyes sharpened, and he immediately jogged over.
He was at home when he received a call from the city saying that a very important person was coming to inspect their area.
He was puzzled at the time, as it was so late at night.
When he saw the information about the person sent from the city, he was immediately stunned.
The position listed in that information is at the district level!
Most importantly, he is still a young man!
At this age and level...
He didn't dare to delay for a moment and immediately drove over to wait.
Hello.
The middle-aged man, beaming, ran up to the young man and said:
"I am Li Youtian, the mayor of Shijing Town."
The young man sized up Li Youtian and said:
"Hello, my name is Liu Bai."
